Please help me get root for my phone

I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S5 from Straight Talk. The phone has beaten me, I have no idea how to root it, nothing seems to work... the specs are as follows...

Samsung Galaxy S5 Straight Talk (verizon network)

Version 6.0.1 marshmallow

Model number SM-S903VL

Build Number MMB29M.S903VLUDU4APH3

As far as I understand the bootloader is not locked.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ashyx:
Verizon are well known for locking bootloaders. That is most likely your problem.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mortj19:
Pretty sure that the bootloader is unlocked remember this is a Straight Talk phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ShinySide:
Straight talk uses Verizon and also ATT iirc. But straight talk don't have the bootloaders locked.

But to answer you

I have a factory unlocked g920t I purchased from Amazon about a year ago. It is showing baseband build number as g920tues4dph2 currently with a pending update available to g920tues5dpi2. I was not able to locate either of these in the chainfire database. Can I still use this method and if so, how?

Thanks.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mortj19:
no this is the S903VL not the S900V

I already tried using this and it did not work, it fails saying on the phone, Secure Check Fail : Recovery
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ShinySide:
Do you have a reactivation/oem unlock in settings>developer settings
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mortj19:
Yes I have OEM unlock checked. The Reactivation option is missing from the security menu but odin mode says FRP: OFF I assume that means Flash Reactivation Protection. Also as a second measure I have no samsung account attached to the phone.

Hi guys, I just got the samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (G935 Exynos) but I miss the Root permission.

you can install CF-AutoRoot without invalidating the warranty and to flag the Knox?

I have no need of custom recovery but only the Root

Hi. Im here to report that the autoroot for my device was unsuccessful. Many different approaches have been tried. I've followed different steps and tips, many even found in this thread. When attempting to boot into recovery, I get at the boot logo, "recovery is not seandroid enforcing", as is expected... but thats it. No SuperSU, no root.

I have a Samsung Galaxy J3 SM-J320R4, US Cellular. Im on Marshmallow 6.0.1, Baseband version is J320R4TYU1APE1. Board is MSM8916, Cpu is 4x ARM Cortex A53. I will provide the required .img files when I get home as I'm at work. But I would like to understand the technical side of this problem, as I've requested the source code for this smartphone from Samsung and am to the point of finding my own root method.

Thanks to chainfire for providing such a great tool for rooting android phones. I got a bit of a question since I'm a huge newbie in the world of rooting.

I downloaded the auto cf root, flash it with odin while the phone is in download mode, and everything went fine. the phone rebooted fine, but I don't see the superuser app so I don't know if the phone is now rooted. Can I now install titanium backup rooted, lucky patcher, and other root apps?

thanks

Stupid question... sorry, just couldn't be avoided... go easy on me [grin]

I'm gonna' take a risk, here -- after all, you xda people can be pretty merciless on those who deign to ask stupid questions -- but I'm sorry: this one, unless I want to wade through 17 pages of posts in this thread to find the answer (which I'll happily do if it turns out that the information I ultimately need is somewhere in it), can't be avoided.

Will the method described herein work on a phone that is now at this OS version...

Samsung Galaxy Note II (SGH-i317) (AT&T)

Android OS 4.1.2 Jelly Bean

Baseband version I317UCAMH3

Kernel version 3.031-1363381

se.infra@R0210-04 #1

SMP PREEMPT Tue Aug 20 10:32:09 KST 2013

Build number JZ054K.I317UCAMH3​

...which is the version to which my phone was brought after the last OTA (via WI-FI only) update... the latest and greatest one, as of this writing, as nearly as I can tell.

Of course, AT&T decided... what... in August, I think it was... to just skip the 4.2 update; and to just wait 'til 4.3 comes out in... let me think... I believe it's December, for the AT&T i317 Note II's. Which brings me to another question: What about that? How will the rooting described in this thread be affected, or not, by the December update to 4.3?

Again, sorry if it's a stupid question; and it's not like I'm unwilling to read through this whole thread's 17 pages; to do the work...

...however, I don't want to do that until and unless I know that it even applies to me, given the OS version that's now on my phone...

...and, come to think of it, the one that'll be on it in December, too, when 4.3 comes out.

Thanks, in advance, for your help.

Hi guys, pls help i have a samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 gt-p3100. i followed instruction on how to install cf-autoroot and it was successfully installed. i got the superuser icon from apps. then i download rom manager from play store then open and run to flash clockwordmod recovery i selected the correct model, the problem is while flashing the display 100/100 means100 percent complete but after that no more action. waited for 20-30mins but still the same. is there something wrong here. since cf-autoroot is successfully installed do i need this clockwokdmod recovery to flash a custom rom like cm10.1? if i want to install clockworkmod from odin do i have to uninstall cf-auto-root? or just proceed to install cwm recovery thru odin? thank you in advance.

root issues with cf autoroot..

I thank chainfire for great work- however, here is my problem:

followed his procedure to the T. gained root, ran rootchecker- check!, titanium backup.. Check! flashed twrp recovery after.. but..as soon as I go to flash a zip through twrp manager, I get a android on his back with some symbols over open belly with red.. and then goes back to stock recovery..and asks to reboot..and..nothing gets flashed.. NOT blaming cf autoroot process at all. But asking whats missing with the process? or step in accomplishing flashing ability? going to settings of supersu, grant access.. not sure what else is missing or wrong with this setup..

the twrp recovery was installed via mskip tool kit (odin ). 1.85 version.

I unrooted..and did it again..root checker said root was good. is there another method to install zip files if not by flashing? :confused:

I had to use either Samsung Kies or Smart Switch to recover my phone, when stuck on Logo. I don't think there is much help or fix with Seandroid enforcing, depending upon which Samsung phone you have.

On my phone I had to downgrade back to lollipop and root the phone again. But I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 Active on Telus.

Is SElinux preventing autoroot from working? I'm able to flash my own custom boot.IMG and successfully boot into Android so I don't think my bootloader is locked. Galaxy J3 SM-j320r4 Android 6.0.1, my SElinux is set to enforcing status as well

I was going to post my stock recovery here, but I unpacked the cf autoroot recovery and my stock recovery, and thoroughly compared the directories and files for the changes made. Autoroot clearly made the changes to the specific stock recovery that I'm using. So posting the recovery on this thread is moot. Why is cf autoroot unable to work?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ashyx:
As you've already discovered it's usually an SElinux issue that prevents it working. Chainfire uses a modified sepolicy to allow the custom recovery to mount the required partitions which is, AFAIK, specific to the device and firmware it's running.

I'm not sure what policies are modified in sepolicy, (you can use supolicy to find out) so I just take the Sepolicy from a similar device running the same firmware with an up to date cf-autoroot and use that.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LeviathaninWaves:
I cannot use adb on boot. But I can pull my sepolicy binary from stock img. What are my options?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ashyx:
Not from stock, from a cf-autoroot recovery.img built for a similar device running the same firmware.

Check the cf-autoroot download page.

Hey [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION]

Isn't there anyway to root or unlock bootloader in my Nexus 5x without data wipe?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LeviathaninWaves:
I've managed to dump all of my partition mount points and major minor #blocks info. So I'm pretty sure I have the needed information for the custom recovery to mount these required partitions. I wish to understand more on this process so that I can manually patch this autoroot .IMG and get it working. I figure that maybe the mounting is being done incorrectly, or the sepolicy isn't working with this autoroot. Also wondering about verity and KNOX. If I had more information, I could troubleshoot this error.

If this doesn't work out, I'm prepared to either get a device tree going to allow for TWRP for this device, or rebuild the kernel itself to get this device rooted. I look forward to your response.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ashyx:
It's a bit pointless really to go messing about with cf-autoroot. I stopped building custom versions of cf-autoroot as it soon becomes out of date and could fail at any time a security patch or new firmware is released.

Seems to a game at the moment with Chainfire trying to keep up with all the patches.

As supersu will always be ahead of cf-autoroot in updates it makes more sense to flash supersu with twrp.

I'm trying to root my Samsung SM-a7000 but having no luck.

After downloading the correct CF file and run odin, when i click start, the phone shows an red warning:

Then it displays a chinese message i don't understand and it doesn't work. What i noted is that on this message, it points to samsung.com/cn

Is there anything i can do in order to get it working properly (with root). My main goal is to install gapps then unroot, but first i need to root it :)

Need help with galaxy A7 SM-A7009 CF-Auto-Root

Hello everyone.

I'm trying to root my Samsung A7 SM-A7009 but having some sort of problem, when i flash CF Auto Root using ODIN everything goes right until the end but my phone gets stuck on boot animation and then it never comes out of this itself.

I can still access the recovery and download mode, it has its own stock recovery and I have wiped data and cache and then reboot but again it remains on boot animation.

I have downloaded the correct CF-Auto-Root (samsung	SM-A7009 a7ltectc MSM8939 LRX22G.A7009KEU1BOL3 5.0.2) from the official cf auto root page, and it has exact the same build number and android version as of my phone.

I then flashed the stock firmware and try this cf auto root again but got no luck (stuck on boot animation again)

So I need help to get out of this problem, could someone tell me what can be the possible reason behind this problem? And how can I fix it.

Thanks in advance.
