Hello guys. I install today the firmware i9505XXUGNG1 and towelroot v3 does not work anymore.

I also checked the modstrings no luck.

I have also tried to get root, using the custom recovery and selinux says no flashing allowed. maybe back to previous rom but I am afraid not being able to revert to an older rom.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] najoor:
No sir, I respectfully disagree. You just don't want to do your homework. It takes more time for other people to answer your question than it takes for you to research it yourself.

If you had used the search with the phrase "Galaxy Mega" you would have seen that the third item found is post #4277, where it clearly says Galaxy mega is not rootable with this method.

Someone spent hours putting that list together and you are not even willing to spend minutes reading it.

Bootloader is likely not going to be unlocked. The GS4 has been locked down with the same bootloader as the GS5, and it is still not unlocked despite a bounty thread and several devs trying. There are several threads here in the GS5 general and q&a forums asking the same thing.

ATTENTION ALL,

If you recieve a device not supported message it DOES NOT nesassarily mean that towelroot will not work on your device.

I have a GS4 720T sprint model and if I tap make it ra1n with the default mod string I get this device is not supported message, but if I put the Samsung mod string in (1337 0 1 7380 4 0), it works and says your device is rooted.

The moral of this story is keep trying mod strings.

Read post one "What are modstrings?" Section.

Read post 4393, ignore device not supported message, make sure you have a kernel build less than june 3, and keep trying different mod strings .

Ok so you where lucky and it didnt take much to change to the Samsung mod string. But you are aware of how many possible combinations there could be?

That's geohot's instruction in post one. So far there are only four modstrings discovered (all listed in post one) and it's up to you to try others and fix it yourself according to post one. In post one, he does give some tips on what numbers to try changng in the modstrings and some info about the different numbers in the modstring. Its not much, but its all we got.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bstanz1:
Thank you!

Thank you Geohot, that was so awesomely easy and not scary.

Worked perfectly on my previously unrooted S4 Active that took the OTA 4.4.2 Update with NE3 Baseband.

When the OTA went through 2 days ago, I thought I was toast and had missed my chance.

I had used (and donated for) Active Root on my first S4 active. It was destroyed and the replacement came with the updated firmware and I had been dragging my heels because the available root methods seemed overly complicated and uncertain.

Towel Root was perfect.

:D

I have made another donation and I hope you get many more plus the bounties for every device this covers. You totally deserve it.

What steps do I need to take to preserve my phone in this condition?

I really don't feel an immediate need for a custom rom, just need to keep my root access so I can clean the BS out of it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Rantha:
This is NOT right and nobody says something like that in the thread you linked above!

The guy asked, if he can put another kernel and/or custom rom on his phone and the other guy answered that he could do it but then knox WILL be triggered. So there's no connection to towelroot. :)

Yes it was probably a misinterpretation since there wasn't the question mark.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Koroz:
So If I am on a device trying new mod codes, how long should I let towelroot sit before I consider the attempt "failed" and move on to the next set? Will it always be instantaneous if towelroot will succeed? Sorry if this was answered I tried searching the thread but mostly just got questions from people who didn't read warnings about OTA.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Indha Lezzio:
It LOOKS LIKE that rooting the 9505 with towelroot and the new NG2 firmware triggers knox. 2 people in Spain have reported it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Biker1:
Just a suggestion.

I follow what I wrote below:

Before using Towelroot to root your device:

- check the Knox counter and see what it reads.

If it reads 0x0, Knox is not tripped

If it reads 0x1, Knox is tripped

I think there may be a few instances where people are saying Towelroot tripped Knox, when in reality, Knox was already previously tripped before Towelroot was even downloaded.

It's always good to check Knox first, and never assume it is tripped or it is not tripped.

Check first to be sure prior to using Towelroot.

You may have flashed a ROM, and then uninstalled it but forgot.

You may have previously installed a custom recovery and uninstalled it.

You may have tripped Knox previously, Odin'd back to stock, used Towelroot and then checked Knox showing 0x1, when you previously tripped Knox prior to Odining to Stock and forgot to that you had installed something that previously tripped Knox.

The bottomline is to check Knox prior to using Towelroot. This will avoid any misinterpretations.

Obviously I am not saying it's not possible Towelroot can trip Knox.

This is spoken about in the op.

Just that I'm suggesting to check Knox first to avoid any confusion, and to be sure about what came first, the chicken or the egg, so to speak ;)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Quinnaay:
I did a search and had no luck.

Does anyone know if this works on the Oneplus One? Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Biker1:
You can give it a try.

Towelroot will either root your device or it won't.

There is very little risk of Towelroot doing anything else but one of the above.

There's always risk, but as per the op and posts, the risk is extremely small.
