Has any one heard of srsroot.Com? The posted on Twitter that they now support root on Sm-g900v kot49. G900vvru1ancc? I also checked the website and it is listed there. My build ends in ancg though. Any thoughts?

Try installing SuperSU from the Play Store (root could have been installed but not the apk to work with it). If not working try running the new updated version since they just mentioned the retail VRU1ANCG build works now.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Franzie3:
I didnt run it on my phone. Basically the SRSRoot method is a windows executable that does everything in 1-Click format. I just dont see any way to see device/model specific information so im being a little gun shy.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] open1your1eyes0:
You're correct it's basically a closed-source rooting method kind of like Kingo was (which doesn't work on KitKat yet). We need some testers on this so anyone willing to help please join us on freenode channel #sgs5.

No root is a deal breaker for me. Hopefully those smarter than I can figure it out before the return date on this thing. I really don't want to have to return it, as I just received my Gear 2 Neo, and it's totally bad ass. But I couldn't even listen do a voicemail from work (.wav file via email) because of permissions on my memory card. Plus the bloatware is ridiculous.

Supposedly SRSroot just updated with an AT&T version as well.

And according to their website there are 2 versions of the Verizon GS5 listed for support.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] djsnake210:
Well I got the screenshot below, but root checker still says it was a no go.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Firemedic:
Yes, You may not get much development for the Dev editions, However. You can easily root them and put on a custom recovery. Just the ability to do those 2 things are reason enough for me to wait. I could care less if they don't get updated. My GS4 dev edition has never been updated and I have had no issues at all with it. I am running custom roms on it.

SRSroot is a complete dud.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] tsachi:
Let me preface by saying that I believe we should be able to unlock / root / modify our devices with the consequence of losing part of the warranty. I'm hoping the recent exploit works because I want to get the S5 on verizon and I will not get a phone that can't be rooted.

Now to why I'm not surprised at why companies lock down their device (and please don't start a flaming war over this)

1. Count how many requests are posted for bypassing the tethering limitations from people with unlimited data. The complaint used to be "it's my data plan I should be allowed to do what I want with it". Verizon did change their policy that on the new plans you get that for free (surprising that they did something for the customers), but they do not allow it on unlimited legacy plans. Right or wrong, they are losing money when people bypass that restriction.

2. Count the number of questions in the S3, S4, Note 2, Note 3, on how to reset the flash counter because the phone is bricked and people want to send it for warranty replacement. There are people in this community who are not willing to forgo the software warranty because they messed up their phone.

3. There are also people who are not willing to accept the fact that by messing with software they caused a hardware failure. In particular, overclocking. Some people do it without understanding it and without understanding the risk. When their device over-heats and stops working they expect it to be covered under warranty.

I'm not saying everyone, or even the majority, of people in this community are like that. I'm just saying that with these kind of behaviors I am not surprised that companies are locking down the device.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] RedBullet:
I think the flash count this is a bit of a red herring. It seems quite reasonable for verizon to have a reliable way of determining if their device should still be under warranty. I think tampering with that violates that.

But I don't think that is a valid reason for locking it down tighter than a drum... Or making folks pay twice (once for the unsubsidized phone, and again on the plan which subsidized the unsubsidized phone)

Just sayin'
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Exleh:
Yeah I just found that out. Does it just do nothing or did I just inject a damn virus into my phone?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Syn Ack:
It generates the equivalent of a false positive. It tries to use a generic root method and the logs say it works but nothing actually gets rooted.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] jpcalhoun:
I have to agree with you. I've had absolutely no problem with my Dev Edition either. I could live with just root, custom recovery would be nice but not an absolute and I really don't care about a custom ROM...I can live without them if need be. But root...yeah that is a must for me.

---------- Post added at 01:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:38 PM ----------

I don't disagree with anything you've said but think another big reason carriers and OEMs are locking down phones is the security concerns expressed by corporate America. I know a number of companies that will not allow an Android phone anywhere on their network...not even email. And if your company does work for the federal government, forget Android phones, if it is not a Blackberry or iPhone the company will not support your device for security reasons. I suspect the carriers and OEMs see this as a "losing business" issue. You'd be surprised how many big companies do big business with the federal government and their contracts are quite specific about what is allowed and what is not allowed when it comes to network security.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] BatesUKfanJ:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nubreed000:
There's lot's of apps that do this sort of thing, but none of them do exactly what I want (from what I've found so far).

I have tried DoubleTwist, but it tries to automatically sync my ENTIRE music collection to my phone. That's ridiculous and unnecessary. I don't need my entire 100+ GB collection with me at all times.

What I'm looking for is something like this: I want to set a specific folder that automatically syncs all of its content with my phone and/or tablet. Kind of like how Dropbox works. I copy something into the Dropbox folder, and eventually that something is on the cloud, accessible by me wherever I am.

Alternatively, I wouldn't mind simply Right Clicking in Windows, and then "Sending To" one of my mobile devices, as long as they're on the same WiFi network as my laptop.

Does something like this exist?

I followed the Procedure One by one and I did exactly what is posted, but still no luck.. i reflashed everything.. even wiping all of my data just to check if it will work if I get a Clean phone before flashing stuffs.. now I am stuck in .681 Rom anyone can help me? and btw i have BL Unlocked (just in case you want/need to know) :( please help meee!
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hackberrybold:
Change it in your build.prop change the NFC icon enable in true.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santoslorenz:

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hackberrybold:
Use a fileexplorer(Rootexplorer) and go to system/build.prop and change it with the text editor.

Try that first for the icon.

Can you mount in Rootexplorer?

Also Sim NFC failed on my phone with the test but it works fine.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santoslorenz:
what will happen if i have semi root? does that affects the NFC? wait i'll check.. but im using Folder Mount.. i can still use that App (is that even related on what you are saying?)
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hackberrybold:
You have not full access to change things on the root of your phone. It doesn't affect the NFC but if you want the icon back you must be fully rooted to change it in your build.prop.I think NFC is working on your phone without showing the NFC icon,do you have a NFC tag to test it?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santoslorenz:
Hey bro i googled some ways to edit the Build.prop thing that you were saying.. I downloaded an app that directly edits the text of that build.prop and it asked for a permission in SuperSU and i granted it.. Then i looked for the NFC icon that you said and changed it to True.. After restarting.. THE NFC SHOWS UP! thanks man! I am now running . 757 Nut's rom Cheers! :D:D:D:thumbup:

New version has been installed today and after much trial and error a full re-install from scratch of the Gear and Gear manager I have got it all working.

But...... if I open Gear manager, all the non Gear apps disappear! This is in addition to the check box for non approved apps being d/l on the Gear Manager.

So the only way to prevent this is to open the Gear manager, change settings as desired and then close Gear manager.

Then reboot Gear. This brings back all the hidden apps.......

So you can't have Gear Manager and Gear both open!

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Killerheels:
That may be so.

But why did this not happen with previous releases of the Gear Manager? Until yesterday my Gear was running like a dream.

And why am I seemimgly allowed to install 3rd party apps on Gear manager and on the Gear if then I am not allowed to have both operating at the same time? This is illogical.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
I hate to break it to you, although the only way you will be able to access your third party apps is by using a third party launcher.

The list of apps which appear in the stock touchwiz launcher are retrieved from a file sent by gear manager. Any apps which have not been installed using gear manager will simply disappear.

I guess its Samsung ways to combat rooting & custom roms.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Killerheels:
Well my side loaded apps didn't disappear on previous releases! And I could have Gear Manager open at the same time too.

Not to be able to is daft.

The sideloaded apps are infact only hidden and still loaded on the Gear of course. I know they don't appear in Manager. I think they did once on my first Gear release. And Samsung does permit apps not created by itself to be installed on the Gear, there is a check box for that purpose.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] CareDood:
Shortcuts made from Gear Manager on 3rd party apps wont dissapear, altough they are gone from the app-list.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] fOmey:
Your absolutely correct, previous releases did not have this "issue" that we like to refer to it as.. Your also correct about the apps simply not being listed in the drawer, they most definitely still exist on the OS.

Its no mistake that this is happening.

The third party option in gear manager is for apps being installed on the gear via the mobile device by other means rather then the Samsung store... this does not affect apps installed directly on the gear OS.

Keep in mind Samsung never imagined the gear to be used as a standalone device.. I regret to say the only way to get around this at this stage is to use a custom launcher.

Correct they use different configuration files.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Killerheels:
Thank you for your answer. So what custom launcher do you recommend?
