dont know why you even tried that. a fly is smarter then their chat reps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] AthruZ79:
Exactly! I guess someone was brave enough to ask... I'd give it about 6 months until root comes out. In the keantime, this phone is pretty awesome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] evolishesh:
This is one of the reasons I stopped using samsung phones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] oneandroidnut:
I'd be shocked if it ever gets root. Almost a year later note 4 still isn't

That's right bro lol you got my back haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] nachoandroid85:
It be nice.. went from note 2 to the 5. Had a lot of problems with Verizon trying to lock it down. Ended up rooting a building my own rom. Hopefully someone is working on it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jacob11701:
From what I read if rooted Knox 5 will lock the phone down...on Verizon and att only. Root looked to be done already on other carriers. Something in Knox 5 called "Root of trust"

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] nachoandroid85:
Yeah.. if that's the way verizon and Samsung want to play the game.. They can go the way of the dodo bird.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] darksidesh007:
I am ignorant on this, but if ALL the Knox software is disabled how could Knox be tripped? Anything related it Knox, I have disabled using Debloater. I am a Windows guy, and when a service is disabled it is not running but the software is still present. Wouldn't it be the same on android and Verizon/Samsung bastardization of android? Baby steps I know, but wouldn't that also leave the possibility of Root more likely then knowing Knox wont screw the phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] situman:
The last time I used root was on the s3 and that was about it. Note 5 not needed. Even the bloatware doesnt bother me. Disabled/uninstall most of them. Phone is smooth as butter, for now at least.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jacob11701:
I would like to think this is true but with the way they control the phone I doubt Samsung doesn't have it programmed in the startup to check

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] holla420:
I hope so cause I love this phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] nachoandroid85:
Me too been doing a lot of reading on this knox security aka efuse. There must be away around it because of 2 things. The Motorola Droid x had close to the same thing and it was finally rooted. Also I highly doubt Samsung and Verizon out lock the self out from doing over the air updates..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] SwordOfWar:
All I want is exposed modules, so I can get some customization and kill ads! Otherwise this is a beast of a phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] pjhoody:
Agree. The lack of root hasn't bothered me at all. I still enjoy the phone a great deal. Would it be nice to have root? Definitely. Deal breaker? No, it turns out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] PrsnlCrcl:
I just wish I could have the Viper Audio...that is really all I am missing without root
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] PsiPhiDan:
Yeah audio sucks on this phone. It was WAY better in my HTC One M8. Root could help that.

What are you guys using to disable bloatware? Do you continually get the "sign up for Visual Voice-mail" each time you get a voice mail? I keep declining but it keeps coming back! Very annoying.

I am using Package Disabler and it is a gift from above...http://xdaforums.com/note5/general/guide-bloating-touchwizzing-note-5-t3184563
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] billa:
Same security concept but completely different implementation.

OTA/firmware updates of course will work since Samsung digitally signs them which will pass the bootloader checks.

The difference is they have the magic keys, we don't, and there's nothing can be done about it.

2048 bit security keys takes millions of years to brute force with current computing, so there you have it.

The best hope is finding a userland exploit, similar to iOS jailbreaks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] JasonJoel:
Exaxtly. If you 'need' root, you need to buy a nexus or a phone that already has root available.

It is a bad assumption these days that a any phone with locked boot loader will get root...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] MrMike2182:
I'm pretty sure there's a way to at least unlock the boot loader on this phone and it involves an exploit within the eMMC CID on the aboot partition by being able to change the CID to change it to a dev version.. However, this still doesn't offer root yet.

props to [MENTION=711482]beaups[/MENTION] and [MENTION=766721]ryanbg[/MENTION] because this isn't from my own finding.

By the way, just because I know about this exploit doesn't mean it's ready to be used or anything so please don't ask me about it and especially don't go bothering [MENTION=711482]beaups[/MENTION] or [MENTION=766721]ryanbg[/MENTION] about this or how to do it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] tonybahr:
It looks like the s6 edge on AT&T got a somewhat root a few days ago. Looks like the phone needs to be unrooted before reboot so it's a pain, but it's a start. The way I took it is you could modify things then unroot. I don't think it trips Knox either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] jal3223:
That exploit is for Snapdragon processors.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] ryanbg:
Will not work
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] MrMike2182:
That sucks I was kind of hoping it would because I have 2 note 5s and willing to brick one of them for the sake of trying to get root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] HypostaticOnion:
If you're willing to brick, might wanna contact beaups. Problem is we don't have a Dev edition note 5, which is why they were able to unlock the s5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] MrMike2182:
Actually I already did let them know in chat on the root ninja website. Of course I was trying to tell jcase but beaups responded too so I'm pretty sure he knows. ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] jal3223:
What did he say?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] MrMike2182:
He didn't say anything in particular.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] jal3223:
Has anyone tried the "limited root" here? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=66166384
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] MrMike2182:
Since I haven't been able to get my hands on the firmware for Marshmallow the N920VVRU2BPB2 one, I'm not sure I'd wanna test that just yet since I'd end up having no way of recovering from a bootloop if anything goes wrong... I don't want a 700 dollar paperweight! If someone knows where this firmware is I'll try it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] HypostaticOnion:
The problem so far hasn't been achieving root, but rather tripping Knox and causing a soft brick.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] MrMike2182:
Since I don't care about Samsung pay or Knox I honestly don't care if I trip it lol. I have 2 of them and the S7 so Samsung pay is no big deal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] HypostaticOnion:
Tripping Knox on the note 5 though basically soft bricks. Look at the root warning thread in general.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] MrMike2182:
I've read through all that which is why I'm not doing anything unless I can find the firmware to recover in the event that something goes wrong!

I'm trying to work on the device tree from git to work with Verizon but who knows I'll compile and find out.

[T-Mobile LG G4] CJ-Wylde:
I just want to get a confirmation from some of the experienced users here, as the carrier iq detector reports to me that my LG G4 does not have Carrier IQ on my phone, which feels great, but I'm not very informed on how it detects and if it's report is a guarantee that it doesn't exist.

Can someone else confirm we do not have Carrier IQ on our T-Mobile LG G4?
[T-Mobile LG G4] lancemoreland:
Yes we do. The only one that really finds it is Voodo CarrierIQ. There are several threads in the General G4 section that cover how to remove it.
[T-Mobile LG G4] CJ-Wylde:
Ahhh, ok, thank you so much for your reply. I'll sift through those to get it removed.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Allen Hu:
Well as the Title said, just wanted to see how many of you guys still have your T and V's using live. I have bought the V on 2013 November and still using it now, although the batterylife and performance had become totally awful. Thinking about jumping to the new Nexus 5 2015 this November, and ending my XV's 2 year life. :D

How about you guys?:confused::laugh:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Chefov01:
I'm still using my Xperia T with WhiteNeo's CM 12.1 ROM and it's running smoothly, it even handles multitasking pretty well! I just replaced the battery earlier this year, so battery life is okay I guess. I, too, am thinking about replacing my phone with something bigger and more bad*ss! :D Welp, if Neo moves on to another phone and starts developing for it, I'll probably buy that one too, hehe! :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Ckovvi:
Same with me, I'm using my T since 2013 as my daily driver. :) To be honest when it was on stock 4.3 I was thinking about buying a new phone because 4.3 has a bad RAM management and phone started to be some laggy and to act low in performance. Now I'm using CM 12.1 by WhiteNeo and T has got a new life, performs great so I'm changed my mind about switching to new phone for now. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sebasanchez:
Over here too! . I have my Xperia T since march 2013.. and it's great with CM 12.1 Neo Rom. An advice, is leave facebook and messenger apps, then use the browser. These apps make the performance be worst.

The only reason that I'm thinking to change to One Plus 2, is for a bigger battery and screen, but i'm not sure...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] batsu-maru:
good bye, Xperia

I switched yesterday to Xiaomi Mi4. My Xperia V wasn't very old (about a year and a half), but it began to fail and got restarted or turned off.

I changed SIM, ROM (CM 10.2), charger and battery, but the phone keeps failing. Still want to "tune" it to, at least, play a few games/videos.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Yup, using my two-years-old XV as a daily driver, too. :) And apart of the low amount of ram and the rather small battery size, there's no real reason to buy a new phone for now. Probably a replacement battery will make this phone last another year. It all depends on whether I get Android M to work just as fine as lollipop does. :)

By the way, thanks for your kind words guys. People's support means a lot to me. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Thumaroil:
I am planning to use my Xperia T as first phone for a longer time to come. Defin >1 year - hopefully longer. I have upgraded from a Galaxy i9000 in January 2015 to a used Xperia T. I am still more than satisfied with it's perfomance for everything I do... And thanks to you neo I really enjoy this phone....
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
I'll probably go for Nexus 5 2015 too. Or I'll buy a laptop for myself.

But mostly Nexus 5 2015 ( or something with snapdragon 820)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] daniel090588:
I still have my tx is hard to upgrade my phone here in venezuela thei´re too expensive, not to much development for mine but still have it as daily driver
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] stanley321:
I started using XV on 2013 July, and I changed the battery last December! I'm still with 4.3 stock! Ram management is really bad. My concern for moving to NEO is the camera, is it as good as the stock one ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Ckovvi:
Camera is pretty good, I'm using CameraMX app and it has a lot of settings, a lot of scenes modes and it almost looks like Sony stock app.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
This picture was made using my latest CM12.1 build.

Quality is great imho. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
I am using my XV not as a daily driver but for travelling as my 3. Sim card holder, so to speak, and as a navigation tool. Surprisingly my original battery seems is as good as new.

I bought an Asus Zenfone 5. It performs well, the only issue is battery. But then, actually it is not much different from the XV and similar to many other phones in the market. I will keep this device until it degrades. Sure I will sure not play the upgrade game anymore, Pentium 166 -> Pentium 200 - Pentium 233 -> 266, and so on, US style marketing with no benefit for anyone. When the ZF5 gives up I'll look at the Indian or China market for another 2 Sim card phone with at least 2 mB RAM. And 5000 mAh battery, don't care how it looks or whatever.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Schuan:
I am still using Xperia V as my daily use phone since May 2013. I was using custom rom (Revelation HD) until it was stopped working. Then I tried a few other roms and not satisfied. Currently I am using stock rom, but i have installed 360 安全衛士 , a china apps to remove all the useless pre-installed apps to free up space and migrate most of my apps into SD-card. It is still functioning well despite poor batteries performance. However, this can be solved by using external batteries (power bank). The only issue i have now is the charging cover had broken and it is not waterproof anymore.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sepw8:
Have been using XV since 2013. I'm mostly satisfied with the stock camera's pic quality, but not with the limited device memory and internal storage.

Recently flashed to WhiteNeo's latest build. Glad to be finally using Lollipop. So far so good - although a bit laggy. Don't know why. Searching hard in xda to get suitable ports for the camera app (as I wanted some of the stock camera features like sweep panorama, more preview options, etc) and get help on repartitioning XV.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] devilkrow89:
I am using about 1.5 year. still now the phone is working like a charm recently swap the internal app storage and resize the app storage so now with CM 12.1 (neo ) is working awesome. and Thanks to Neo for always support xperia T
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] |>/\nte:
I got my xperia t as a secondary phone, but it's totally capable of doing everyday tasks. The only drawback is its terrible battery life. If I was to use it as a daily driver it'd need charging every single day. I'm using it for experiments and testing stuff I find here on xda though, and as a second phone. A thing that I absolutely love though is its camera. It's the best I've used on a phone, along with the z's one.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] monstreys:
cm mod

Im still using my two year old xperia t as my daily phone, this means i always have powerbank with me but i make it work. I was thinking of upgrading to a oneplus x but im going to try cm first (my first phone mod, wish me luck!) apparently whiteneo 12,1 is the way to go?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] djargad:
I also use my Xperia T for 2 year now and I intend to continue using it for at least another one, thank White Neo for that. The phone works like a charm with a mild overclocking and the rom is great too. :D:D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] balonik:
still using T as my main phone after almost 3 years.

It works, has nice camera and its running smoothly with custom ROM.

Only downside is I don't have Android 5, but I can live with that (all the custom ROMs gave me constant SODs while wifi is on).
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LukaPochi:
Nope. I gave it to my mom since now I have a Xiaomi Mi 4 :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] stanley321:
Finally moved on to the Nexus 5X! But I often found myself using the V! I just like the small size phone!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Jacky_Chua:
Still using it as a portable wifi hotspot. It's hard to see small size phone in the market nowadays..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] jack21987:
I'm using it with official Sony firmware, however sometimes I test it with different ROMs.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] am486:
Still in use with the last version of WhiteNeos ROM. But the battery is weak and the vibration motor doesn't work in a proper way anymore, guess I have to buy this year a new phone.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] kraeMit:
We have 2 Xperia T and both are running _very_ well using WhiteNeo's 12.1 ROM (THANKS!). I like the curved design, the proper size and handling and even the possibility to change battery.

I always need a phone, which I can put into the pocket, sometimes I sit on it and it might fall down, if it wants to ;)

I think if one Xperia T will break I will buy another one, will be cheap now :) :)

I had a look to the Z, Z1, Z2, Z3 but I realy don't like the high prices and the biggest disadvantage is the glas-design, which makes the phones very sensible.

So many devices had been broken, it's a shame :-/
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] theunlucky:
Hi,

I too use my Nov 2012-Xperia T with WhiteNeo's CM12.1-Mod...

It still works like a charm, even the batterylife is acceptable (though on longer egresss I'm carrying a powerbank with me)...

I often thought about replacing it, but there is quiet no Phone fitting up my requirements (NFC, small display - the XT is almost too big for me, as LTE is quiet mandatory now: all european bands and not too expensive)...

After latest announcement of new models - I concluded it's best to use the XT as long as possible...

Just hope someone with enough knowledge will port CM13 (or, after Cyanogen's commitment with Microsoft - AOSP-implementation of Android 6) to the XT.... Edit-part: as the CM12.1 has also some major faults android brought with it... (and my knowledge to port it myself - well: no alternative for the XT yet, so - I prefer to leave those tasks in more capable hands than mine ;)

Thanks to WhiteNeo for the CM12.1 anyway :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] HvdW:
I always buy last years top model.

So my Xperia T was from october 2013 and used it up to october 2015.

Installed Ultimate Pure XT on it.

Perfect machine.

Gave it to my daugter after resetting it to stock.

Still have sentimental feelings whenever I see the phone.

Now I own a Xperia Z3 compact with Android Concept software Marshmallow 6.01.

Perfect machine. Less beautifull but, well very, very good phone.

As a relic the Z3C bears the beatifull black with color waves wallpaper from the Xperia T.

---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 PM ----------

Put a new battery in it and it is like new.

Use a plectrum to pry it open without damaging the device.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] romcio47:
I've sold my Xperia T on September 2015 and bought Xperia Z3 Compact.

The difference between both phones in terms of speed and overall pleasure of usage is outstanding. I really recommend Z3C to anyone who wants cheap and blazing fast phone.

One thing I REALLY REALLY miss is a camera from XT. Z3C has 20MP camera, it's great but the overall quality of the photos is not that "wow!"-ish like they were with XT. In fact (and of course) Z3C does better photos in low-light conditions (great example - https://goo.gl/photos/vJHqU7r3fPnzrFv28) because of much higher ISO value but the photos are a bit... dull. But anyway... XT was outstanding phone in at its launch and I will never forget it :)

To compare camera samples from both phones:

Since January I'm using an Nexus 6P. Now my Xperia T is gathering dust :c
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] -CMX:
Had my V since June 2013 and have only had it running stock. I was heavily into roms and flashing when I had my Nexus S, but I just love how my V looked and ran so I didn't actually try changing anything. I'm in the process of deciding on an upgrade now and am looking at the Nexus 5X but I'm not sure. Looking for something with a 5-5.2" screen as it's a huge jump form my current 4.3" screen on the V, but I also have tiny hands so I don't wanna go too big.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Android Development] prodigiez:
This is just a deodexed/zipaligned/optimized stock rom. Nothing added and nothing removed. Made this rom because of Xposed. Is just my hobby project.

CSC is based on TGY. Kernel is based on your stock because it doesnt flash kernel. If you need to keep your default CSC , backup your default CSC and replace it after flashing this rom and set permission.

Before flashing this rom , make sure you are rooted with TWRP. Make sure you are running on stock 5.1.1 modem and kernel of your G9250 stock rom. Make sure you do a full backup from TWRP along with your EFS.

This build is based on HK version S6 Edge and tested on HK version of S6 Edge.

Everything is working fine on my device with this rom

Private mode is working

Xposed is working

Fingerprint is working

Camera is working

Wifi is working

Call is working

Not Working

There is some problem with GDrive. To fix this , disable GDrive and update to the latest Gdrive from Play Store. If you are not using it , just remove it with Titanium.

Wechat

If something is not working on your device , please restore from your backup and forget this rom because I will not use every single app that came with stock and I dont have much time to spend on troubleshooting what is not working. So , flash at your own risk.

If your device is soft/hard bricked , knox tripped , damage , explode , warranty void after flashing this rom , i take no responsibility on this.

How to install

Final reminder , Full nand backup ( boot, efs, radio, system, everything) before flashing this. Youll have to be on stock 5.1.1 kernel and modem. I dont guarantee it work on your device. Flashing this rom will wipe your system. I suggest you backup your data in your internal too. Some times sheetz happened.

1. Download the rom here (Gdrive) or here (Dev St)

2. Copy the rom to your internal memory.

3. Reboot to TWRP recovery

4. Install

5. Reboot , enjoy!

First boot up will take 5-10mins. So sit back and enjoy.

Thanks to installer script creator , chainfire for the root , svadev for the deodexer , golubev for privatemode fix and to those ive missed out , thank you.
