Has anyone found a way to root the s5 active on oc5 build without it being previously rooted or downgrading to 4.4?

I am currently using a galaxy s5 running on 4.4.2 kitkat rooted, and I am wondering if it is possible to upgrade safely to 5.0 lollipop. Also, is it worth it? Also, my carrier is T-mobile.

Hey guys, I am new to the samsung forums from HTC, I have a G925F (g925fxxu1aodg), which I found to be the Vodafone UK version of the S6 Edge. I am rooted on 5.02 but no custom recovery installed. I noticed that on the rom installations they note to have the latest 5.11 bootloader so I figured that updating to stock 5.1.1 would do the trick. I have downloaded the most recent 5.1.1 firmware for my s6 edge, I have a few questions now:
1) Will me being rooted affect the flashing of the stock firmware through Odin at all? Will I just lose root?
2) Will this update my bootloader as well?
3) If I update and all is well, Do i just reroot and flash a custom recovery?
Thanks in advance
Hi,
I have galaxy s4 i9505 with build id XXUHOH2 running on android lollipop 5.0.1. I want to root using odin3.
There is no cfauto root file package with build id LRX22C.XXUHOH2 available on autoroot.chainfire.eu

1. The one, based on build id LRX22C.VJUHOK1 android lollipop 5.0.1
2. Second one, based on build id LRX22C.XXUHOJ2 android lollipop 5.0.1

I am wanting to root my Verizon S4 and you know, locked bootloader. So I am wondering if there is a way to downgrade to Jellybean or Kitkat to root it and get cyanogen.
So....
No
Yes
NO
You cannot downgrade to kitkat or downgrade your bootloader in general with this phone. There are multiple guides to rooting lollipop, just search in the general section. You cannot get a custom recovery on this phone, only flashfire. Flashfire can only flash touchwiz roms that are specifically designed to do so(and of similar base).
Hey Guys,
I would like to know if there was a way to somehow root my S5 Neo SM-G903F with Knox 0x0. I've tried various Exploits such as Rowhammer and Dirty Cow. Even the Kingo and Kingroot Apps dont work. They stop at 90%. I had an S4 Value Edition once and I discovered a root method with downgrading to 4.4.4 with a old kernel use Towelroot and then use Flashfire to go back to 5.0.1 with Knox Staying Cool and root. But the problem is that i really dont know if my Knox will stay cool after Upgrading to 6.0.1 from 5.1.1 with the same Flashfire method because the root exploits work for lollipop but not for Marshmallow. There were some threads that claimed that root on 6.0 required a modifiyed boot image.
Thank you in advantage for anything that could help me or clarify the 5.0 to 6.0 issue
