i have recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Note I717m running android 4.1.2
i have looked everywhere trying to find a way to root it but i can't find a thread or site (via google) that would explain to me exactly what i need to do to root my Note specifically. I am a beginner at rooting but i have rooted my samsung galaxy s3 (only because the rooting sites were abundant and very easy to understand)
All i need is to know if there is a way to root such an old phone running the latest software, and if there is i need to know how.
thank you
Get latest twrp .tar from og dev section to use with Odin.
Uncheck auto reboot in Odin, flash recovery, and since you have the Canadian version there is an extra step as there is a script in place to overwrite a custom recovery if you boot directly into the os,
So, right after the Odin flash, button combo into recovery and factory reset, then boot into android.
Now reboot into recovery and when you go to boot again from there it should see that you're not rooted and ask if you'd like to do so.
Thank you for your quick reply!
I however dont know what you mean by twrp.tar and where i can find it
I would need links to sites and a guideline if possible because when i rooted my s3 it was one step after the other i didn't really understand all of it and it was a long time ago
Thanks again, hope I'm not asking for too much here I'm new to this forum
Its in the development section for the i717. Go to TRWP recovery. Click the link to the site and MAKE SURE ITS FOR THE I717. Download and do what stud said.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app

New CF-Auto Root Needed for SM-C105
Hi
I need a new CF-Auto Root for my Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom (SM-C105)
Android 4.4.2
Built Number : KOT49H.C105XXUBOB1
TP555
Me too :^(
Sorry to say, I'm having similar problems with the current auto-root file.
Odin connects, starts to upload the file, then fails.
I've attached a screen shot.
The Model number is SM-C105a
The build number is KOT49H.C105AUCUBNK1
Any guidance is appreciated.
Thanks!

anyone rooted their i9200 on 4.4.2 with knox, using CF Auto root ? or any other method actually (and what method did you use)
Just wanna see if this method is successful, as I've heard some folks say it's not possible with knox. Wanna keep it stock if it's not possible.
thank you!

for anyone else who is having issues, if you use the bundled 3.07 that seems to not work. I downloaded 3.10.6 and was able to get it to work on my edge using the 920 file.

Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy 6 Edge
Model SM-G925F
Android version 5.0.2
Baseband version G925FXXU1AOCW
Kernel version 3.10.61-4497415
Build number LXR22G.G925FXXU1AOCV
and I would like to root it with CF Autoroot.
I'm not an Android specialist and even the vocabulary is sometimes mysterious to me, so please excuse my naive questions.
The first one is : the phone has received a new software update which is awaiting me to install it, but I haven't done that yet because I saw on the CF Autoroot site that the root for G925F was based on build LRX22G.G925FXXU1AOCV, which I currently have...
So the question is : is it a problem to have the new update (approximately 160Mb I think) pending? Will the root succeed with this pending update?
Second question :
Also, I tried to disable two processes which were called "Software update".
I could only disable one of them (Software Update, 1.59MB size), the other one (Software Update, 19MB size) has its options greyed out and I can't use them.
Is this a problem? Should I re-enable the "Software update" process before rooting?
Third question : what are the consequences of the root?
Will the phone still receive the Samsung updates? I guess that if the answer is yes, updating will remove the root, is this right?
In that case, if I want to keep the root, how can I stop all updates, which currently are pushed to the phone... and that I couldn't stop, cf. question 2.
And, fourth question: after rooting based on the mentionned build, will there be new "roots" for this model, based on newer stock firmware? (so that the phone can receive useful Samsung updates)
Again, sorry for my silly questions, I did read the whole thread, but... I don't get all the subtle "evident" specialist stuff, and I'd like to avoid bricking the phone if possible
Thanks for your answers and help in explaining things to me!

I do believe that when rooting your S6 you will trip the KNOX counter resulting in void warranty and inability to receive official updates. Check out this http://www.kingoapp.com/help/samsung-knox-counter.htm

If I'm on 5.0.2 and flash 5.1.1 without the new f**** bootloader(and probably modem so as to have signal) through flashfire, will I be able to use cf-root after this??
Or it s a matter of kernel as well?
Of course it will trip knox, right?

Kingroot, towelroot and even ordin is not working...!!
Kingroot pc version Is working fine many people have used it on oc1 including myself, but kingroot apk is not working. Must install the latest pc version of kingroot in chinese.
Question
I have a verizon gs4, lollipop 5.0.1, same baseband l545vrugoc1, and i used kingroot pc version to root. Did the same for my wifes phone. Root seems to work, i have superuser permission, but now both phones say sim card not readable, contact your provider. I want to switch the phone to straighttalk service with their byod sim kit. Is this message normal or is the phone no longer capable of reading a sim? Knox somehow involved? One other question, i cant remove kingroot and replace with supersu, supersume not working completely and once supersu is on the phone binaries wont update, fails everytime. Been searching for 2 weeks to find answers and while normally google is my friend, this time its no help.
Any help would be appreciated.
