I had the same issue (NE5) stuck on the factory recovery...the way I got it rooted was after I Odin'd the cf auto root, I Odin'd the latest philz recovery and chose the "fix root" option... After the reboot I downloaded supersu from the playstore and followed the prompts.. Maybe try that process...

Here is the NE5 Kernel and the NK4 kernel you will need to use towel root to root your phone without tripping knox. You unzip and install with odin.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] steveokinevo:
Can I flash a different kernel on the stock system?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jdsingle76:
Which one do you want to flash?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] steveokinevo:
Anyone to make faster. Ktoons or something
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jdsingle76:
I know that in order to use towelroot after taking 4.4 OTA, one has to flash the old kernel from the last build, so as long as the kernel is built for your model and baseband, it should work just fine.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] steveokinevo:
Well thats what im trying to find out. If there is one compatible with just the stock system, rooted.

Hey wondering if anyone can help with a problem I've run into.

So got a Galaxy S5 (Virgin Mobile) for christmas. I did the system updates after activating it and went straight to this page to get it rooted. I followed all the steps to the t but after using odin to install the CF auto root my phone reboots and says

"Recovery booting . . . .

Recovery Is Not Seandroid Enforcing

Set Warranty Bit : Recovery"

I've tried the different methods to get this to work already posted in the comments and I still arrive at the same problem. I've even just let it sit for an hr and still no luck.

Got any ideas on how I can fix my phone? I'd be very greatful!

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jdsingle76:
Since you've flashed CF auto root through Odin, you've already tripped Knox, so if it were me, I would flash Philz Recovery and root through Philz, then just install SuperSU through play store, update binaries, profit :) Good luck.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] CMILD561:
so I got my s5 a few weeks ago, rooted through towelroot despite the fact that i got varying conflicted opinions saying towelroot no longer works. I verified that i was rooted through rootchecker, installed superuser, my question is now what?

I have been out of the rooting game for a few phones now and just getting back in. What I want to do is flash a ROM that is close to stock that gets rid of all the useless bloatware, unlocks the hotspot, and has excellent battery life (power when I need it and not when i don't).

I guess I need to install a recovery right? Then start researching what ROMs to use. Anyone have any recomendations for either? Are there still mutliple recoveries out there? Back in the day when I rooted my htc evo 3d there was TeamWin Recovery and ClockwordMod. Are those still the main two? advantages or disadvatages? I guess I am going to trip the knox as soon as I take this next step right? Any suggestions on ROMs to fit my liking?

Thanks

Stuck at boot recovery

SM G900P phone here. I have read a lot of these forums trying to dig myself out of this hole so i apologize if the same question is answered over and over. I used "CF-Auto-Root-kltespr-kltespr-smg900p.tar.md5" via Odin and am stuck at a "Recovery booting" screen. I have tried it a few times to no avail. I dont care about knox. I tried the philz touch method and odin says the most recent one (6.57.8-klt) is invalid. I was at 4.4.4 before attempting this.

*edited to add i have successfully recovered out of this brick by downloading the stock OS reinstalling. but i still would like to get root.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] dmolavi:
Is a factory reset required between any of the kernel flashes?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Mike Ramrod:
No need to.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] dmolavi:
Thanks...and where do I flash the kernels to? AP? Do I leave the "Auto reboot" and "F Reset Time" options checked? Anything else? I haven't seen any detailed info on it here...

Curses...the kernel files that are here are .zip...Odin needs .tar. Or...am I not using Odin to flash the kernel? (Am I doing it via the stock recovery?)
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] cruise350:
Here is the NE5 and NK4 kernel to flash via odin. Unzip the kernel.zip file and there will be 2 folders, one has the NE5 tar and the other has the NK4 tar. Flash them in AP if you are using odin 3.09 or newer. You don't have to check or uncheck those options. Just use what ever odin defaults to.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] dmolavi:
Thanks..i actually found those last night and did it. One thing i noticed is that my device status is now custom instead of official. Any way to get it back to official, or does it not really matter?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] cruise350:
You rooted now so that is why it shows custom. To get back to official you would need to flash the stock tar file, but then you wouldn't be rooted anymore. You can try using the xposed framework and the wanum module to force official status. But that has never worked for me.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] dmolavi:
it's not that important, and if i ever had to take it into get serviced, i'll unroot and reflash the official firmware. it was more of a curiousity question.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Taz420nj:
Hey guys,

I am no stranger to rooting devices, but having an S5 that's not paid for yet and having to turn it in when I upgrade, I am terrified of the KNOX bit (it's new territory for me). I would love to just auto-root it and go flashaholic on it like I did with my S2, but I don't want to take the chance in a few months that they won't accept the S5 back because it's been KNOX voided.

So I just want to be sure.. Right now I have 4.4.2, towelrooted. In the last month or so, it somehow managed to flip the Status back to Official (still rooted!), and it downloaded the NK4 OTA update. Now it has been nagging me to install it.. I want to keep root, mainly for TiBu, ad blockers, and de-bloating. So what would be the best way to proceed, WITHOUT tripping KNOX?

I assume running the OTA update will remove root, but I was under the impression that towelrooted S5's wouldn't take the OTA to begin with (I definitely remember seeing the 'unauthorized mod/must update with Kies' warning when I checked for an OTA at one point) so I have no idea what changed that caused it to go back to Official status, and I have no idea how it will behave.. Is it safe to run the OTA? Is there any chance it will preserve root?

Or should I skip the OTA altogether, and just ODIN the NK4 firmware, then go back to the NE5 kernel, towelroot, and then ODIN back to the NK4 kernel?

I've read this thread, I'm just trying to make sure what I want is possible.. What I've read seems to be conflicting.. I want stock 4.4.4, with root, WITHOUT tripping KNOX..

Thanks
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] cruise350:
One thing you can do is pay for supersu pro and check the option to preserve root through an ota and see if it works. It did on my S4. If it doesn't, you can still use towelroot on nk4. You have to odin the ne5 kernel, root with towelroot, then reinstall the nk4 kernel, install supersu and let the binary update. Then you're good to go. The whole process is done with odin so no tripping knox. The only way knox is tripped, is installing a custom recovery.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] arsenic0:
So im having problems.

I have a Sprint S5, tried initially using the Philz method and it says it passes but when i reboot the phone into recovery mode its the standard android recovery. So then i tried the Auto-Root methods, various versions and when it reboots i just get stuck in the Recovery Booting mode and have to pull the battery to get it back into downloading mode.

Thanksfully i figured out if i go back to the older tool and flash the Philz again i can atleast get my phone back to a working state, but no matter what I do i cant seem to get this stupid thing rooted.

Any help? Has Sprint/Google pushed something that makes these instructions obsolete?

If it matters this is my info

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jdsingle76:
You're on NE5, so just use towelroot. Easy cheesy :)
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Taz420nj:
Well that was unspectacular.. The OTA fails when I try it, so I'm going to have to just ODIN the update anyway. Thanks for the tip on supersu pro though, I didn't even see that preserve root option!

Hi, first of all this is a different HTC One from the other one I posted on this forum with the problem with the Safe Mode, need help to send it to repair for the purple tint issue. Now I have S-OFF and Bootloader OFF, so it came like that since I bought it, because his first owner did this,

I'm on stock rom and I don't have root, for example I applied the last update via OTA and I did it without problems, but I need to put the S-ON and Bootloader locked like as it comes from factory so the HTC support can't screw me :D

How can I do this ?

I found a couple of sites but I do not trust very much the information on those sites...

Most important thing is that I need to be it LOCKED, not Relocked, locked as it comes from factory.

I have successfully rooted my sm-n900t but whenever I try to boot into recovery an endless loop occurs. Can anyone help me?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: bootloop

Assuming that your phone is rooted and working properly except for the bootloop

issue you are having when trying to get into recovery, do the following...

Go to the playstore and download "goomanager" a free app

and click the menu softkey on left side of phone then select

"flash open recovery script".

Then wait til it gets done and when it's done just reboot the phone.

That's the easiest way to solve your bootloop issue.

Another good free app you can use is "TWRP Coordinator" which

you can download from the playstore too, after installing this app

simply select the option to flash twrp recovery then after it gets

done simply reboot the phone.

Good luck!

Its all about identifying what is a user app and what is a system app. You do a wipe because system data (system app data) is not compatible between roms. user data is fine.

In titanium, filter out all system apps. Then before you restore missign apps with data, ensure also by going through the list one by one, that there is still nothing rom related and deselecting anything that is,

When I touch the stock photo it shows the person's photo and their name. No idea how to fix it. Not everyone has Google+ so this is not going to work.

Glad it's not just me. I finally switched to Hangouts once the most recent updates enabled me to send photos over SMS via Hangouts and not require having a G+ account (I do not). I received a bunch of updates this afternoon and rebooted my phone (Droid Maxx) as I like to do sometimes when I install many updates at once. I now noticed this exact problem.... when I have a text waiting, and if I pull down the Notification Shade, the picture next to the contact is the default grey icon. Yet the contact photo properly shows up in my Contacts in the phone and within the SMS Hangout. Very odd, and annoying. I will try clearing the cache and data and see what happens. If this can't be fixed soon, I'll go back to the default Motorola SMS app.
