Hi;
Was reading your post.
Enter: "Bin4ry" in XDA-Search Box.
Its SUPPOSED to be able to root
this phone. Have had no luck with
it as of yet. Another program you
might try is: KINGO, which claims
to be able to root 98% of any Android
phones. Let me know how you made
out. If successful with any of these,
PLEASE let me know step-by-step
how you did it!!

I have tried numerous rooting methods on this phone since I purchased it a week ago. ALL have failed, even those which were once confirmed as successful. Unfortunately, right now that means that this phone cannot be rooted if it is running on the latest software update, 4.4.2.
So far I have tried and failed to root the device via:
RootGenius
Bin4ry's method
iRoot
KingoROOT
I have yet to try cydia impactor. But I will post the results tonight when I get off work.
Assume still no root for Hydro Icon-4.4.2?
Is it safe to assume no one has found any working root for the Kyocera Hydro Icon running 4.4.2 KK?
I have tried multiple other methods multiple times (King Root, Root Master, Master Root, Poot, Towelroot, Framaroot, Universal Root, Kingoroot, vRoot, SRS Root, Easy Root, Root Genius, iRoot & Cydia Impactor) but it was all in vain, is there anything I'm missing?
Add Bin4ry's method to the list.
Alpha Tekk, I have try ever know source to root this phone as well. With no success. If find out any that work with the update 4.4 KitKat please let me know

I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a cyanogenmod rom that worked with this phone. Thank you.
UNLOCKING raven H892L
ME too. How can I root or unlock this phone.? Help please.
Try Kingo Root
do a google search for Kingo Root.
Its the only one I could find that worked but i still have a few issues.
Cant update or install recovery.
Cant gain Root for some apps.
Cant update SU.
Cand update Busy Box.
But one caveat is that i Rooted mine using Kingo around mid 2015.
There have been several updates to Kingo since then and while none have fixed my problem it may be able to do yours without error.
Make sure you use "Kingo" and not "king" or some other similar name as there are several and it can be confusing.

You can try to root it with "kingRoot" like mine, you'll maybe need a data/wifi internet connection so that it downlads all the necessary files to root it and then check with "RootChecker" if you doubt, you can always try to install an App that requires root privileges and you'll see. but this phone is crap anyway!!! There is no Custom ROM aviable for it!! I bought one from Mobilis too
Hi,
I use Samsung Verizon Galaxy S4 Lollipop, version 5.0.1 I545.
I tried kingroot, Kingo root, towelroot, and all the rooting programs out there(both one click and PC versions). However, all of them failed to root my device.
I really, really want to root my device....is there anyway to root this WITHOUT particlar rooting programs? Like, doing all on my own?
Help...

There is no root for 5.x on Verizon S4.,,sorry. There was a method to keep root if you were on 4.4, but if you updated it is too late.
Is there a way to go back to 4.4.?

That would be a no too. the bootloader was changed when the S4 was upgraded to OC1
and it seems to be the same for OF1 blocking downgrade to OC1 as well.
check your current firmware version. if you're on OC1 try to do kingroot again, as that one is a hit or miss, but OF1 it can't do currently.
"About the phone" doesn't show me the firmware version. do i need a program to find it>
I am on OC1. King root is failing at 52%. What should I do? I am on I545VRUGOC1. EVERY ATTEMPT TO ROOT HAD FAILED. CAN I DOWNGRADE?

You need to use kingroot on windows desktop from what I heard. it also seems to be a hit or miss and might need multiple attempts.
Can you NOT hijack my thread????
And my buildnumber is LRX22C1545VrRUGOF1.
So,,,I guess rooting my device is not possible.
Can I do it own my own, as I said in title? Without programs like Kingo root etc.
I saw people doing it using command window, TWRP, etc etc

okay, here's the thing
i soft bricked my verizon s4 couple of days ago trying to downgrade from OC1 (5.0.1) to MDK (4.2.x) via Odin. before doing that i tried various root methods via pc , king root & towelroot apk , king root desktop, none of it worked. but after i flashed the stock OC1 via odin to recover my device, the first exploit i tried to root was Kingroot desktop app (it was all in chinese i used google translator on android) and it worked! i replaced the knigroot app with supersu using terminal ( http://www.w0lfdroid.com/2015/05/How-to-Remove-Replace-KingUser-KingRoot-with-SuperSU.html ) . though you cant flash any custom recoveries on OC1 . i hope if this is any help.
PC KingRoof worked afted enabling debugging mode and also changing the USB cable.
0F1 can be rooted
The kernel can be downgraded from 0F1 to 0C1, flashing with Odin. (Search for that....) Success is shown if the DATE on the build goes from July to March. It will still say "0F1" but don't let that worry you. From that point I got frustrated with Kingroot language barrier and used MobileGo program (on PC, with 15-day trial period) "one-click Root" option. After that the kernel can be flashed back to 0F1. (You don't have to, but if not you keep getting annoying notifications: "Unauthorized actions have been detected, etc")
I also use the desktop kingroot app to root my gs4 because wondershare does not work on my pc

Wondershare MobileGo will root OF1 (I've done it several times.) You can download and install on your PC and have a free 30 day trial period.
I have an LG G3 32gb D85521A but I can't root it with the 5.0 firmware it came with. I need to downgrade to KitKat in order to root it, but I don't know which KDZ to use.
Which one is for the 32Gb version and what happens if I use the wrong one?
At this moment I have
Europe D85530B_00_1217.kdz
Greece D85510L_00.kdz
Spain D85521A_00.kdz
The way I see it, the Spanish seems to be the one I need (D85521A matches my model), but what happens after I root the phone and need to upgrade back to 5.0? Will LG Suite install its Spanish counterpart of 5.0?
GOOD NEWS!!!
I've managed to root my LG G3 without the need to downgrade to KitKat. PurpleDrake's method helped me do that and Root Check confirmed it, but:
1) I've followed PurpleDrake's instruction and went online to install SuperSU and it said something about a binary update, that there is another root in the system that prevents SuperSU from updating and that I should uninstall it in order to proceed.
2) In one of my attempts to root my phone I've installed Kingroot but it failed to root it. (there were some ads and when I scrolled down there was something about a memory boost and a button TRY IT. It required internet connection so I gave up. The root didn't work so I've uninstalled the app, or so I thought.
After PurpleDrake's root I've performed a factory reset to see if SuperSU stays in place, but instead of that I saw Kingroot stuck in my system.
Is there a way to totally get rid of Kingroot and keep SuperSU even after a factory reset?
Is Kingroot the program that prevents SuperSU from updating, or PurpleDrake conflict with it?
