That is always the first step and doesn't change. This thread covers the changing root methods on different Android versions.
[Nexus 9 General] ranchu-panchu:
Thanks,

Yet, I noticed in many threads of rooting in mediatek devices, that just flashing recovery.img and boot.img is the 1st procedure to make the device root.

Does it mean that mediatek device does not require unlocking the bootloader ?

Thx
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] aholeinthewor1d:
So I currently use a Galaxy S5. It's rooted and I still run a KitKat ROM right now and everything works great. I have someone who will give me an iPhone 6 for my S5 + $25. I am in no way a fan of iPhones or iOS but I am kind of getting bored with my S5. There are a few people developing for it still but I just want something new to play with. I want to try out the iPhone 6 mainly for the camera. Looking on craigslist I see plenty of people with excellent condition Galaxy S6's willing to trade for an iPhone 6. So my thinking is to get the iPhone tomorrow and within a few weeks trade it for an S6.

The S5 really is the perfect phone but like I mentioned I want something new. I have unlimited data on verizon and if I ever need to have hotspot I can use that with no issues. Battery life is great and it also has the power saving modes. Also the removable memory card slot lets me put in my friends GoPro memory card and copy clips right to my phone. I will be giving up a lot so I hope the S6 is worth it.

Before I get rid of my S5 I wanted to double check a few things. I know on the S5 the latest update can't be rooted. I also saw a thread here mentioning the same thing for the S6. So I just wanted to confirm. If I get one from someone on craigslist it's likely gonna be on the newest software. Can it be rooted or can it be downgraded and then rooted? If not are there enough people still working on this phone that there's a pretty good chance it will have root again eventually?

Thanks for any answers!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Snowby123:
If it is on the latest software no chance of root and no downgrade. If you want root, find one that either has build number G920VVRU1AOC3 or G920VVRU1AOE2. Both can be rooted. Any other build number can not be rooted and cannot be downgraded. Make sure you ask these seller what the build number is. I personally believe that sometime in the future a new root exploit will be found, but not likely any time soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Tulsadiver:
Like was mentioned by snowby123, only OC3 and OE2 can be rooted. My only added comment is I would use swappa over Craigslist. Safe place to buy a phone and you can confirm firmware before purchase. I've bought and sold several on there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] aholeinthewor1d:
Thank you both! Exactly what I was looking for. Just checked the S5 forum and there is two people currently testing some ideas for rooting the new build and bypassing the bootloader so I won't what will happen with that.

Are there non root hotspot apps that I will be able to get? I will try and get a rootable firmware but who knows if I'll find one. Gonna miss my S5! No going back after tonight
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spoertm:
Hi,

I'll just get right into it. Since I flashed Vaniraosp rom I've been seeing this red frame/border whatever you wanna' call it, I disabled strict mode and rebooted, updated the rom and reflashed but none solved the problem. I've been told that factory resetting would fix this but I don't want to lose my data.

Any help would be appreciated, thx.

Have you tried using Titanium Backup to backup your apps and data?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spoertm:
I'm sorry, I wasn't clear enough. What I meant by "reflashed" is that I reflashed the rom after backing up my stuff, (which also didn't work). I just though about totally factory resetting, like also wiping out the internal storage.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
No need to apologize.

You could try doing a full wipe from recovery. If that doesn't work, may a complete flash back to stock and then re-flash the custom rom.

[Amazon Fire Phone] toolman87:
Hello All,

I just ended up buying two of these phones from ebay while they were at $125, pretty amazing deal. They arrived yesterday, i unlocked with the provided codes and it updated the firmware to version 4.6.4. I'm on t-mobile network and not AT&T. I thought the firmware was only supposed to update for the AT&T users to 4.64 and 4.6.3 for the other unlocked GSM's? Anyways, here we are.

So I just have one question. Are there any compatible apks for Google Play Store/ Services that are working with this latest firmware? I'm probably one of the lone wolves here but i don't really mind the FIRE OS, just really would like to get my apps that require google services on this phone.

I'd like to also thank everyone who contributes to these forums, you all are great!
[Amazon Fire Phone] Bingo Bronson:
In general, yes, but Play services will cause inconvinence because people need to use workarounds to keep Play services below a certain version, this leads to the next "problem": some apps will complain about the Play services version, but continue to work (more or less).

You can install 4.6.3 (how to: see here) if you rely heavily on the Google Play environment, since it works properly on this version.

Yes, you can install 4.6.3 "GSM unlocked" version on a netlocked device (on any device, actually, doesn't matter if it came from a AT&T, O2 or T-Mobile bundle).

No, it won't update to 4.6.4, because all OS variants are independent and have their own update channel.

Bottom line: Google Play Store & services...

• ...work well on the "GSM unlocked" OS versions - 35.4.6.1 (461013820) and 35.4.6.3 (463001620).

• ...doomed on the "AT&T" OS versions - 32.4.6.1 (461013320) and 32.4.6.4 (464000420)

• GER version of the OS was problematic as well, tested it myself in the beginning (just as another example)

*A little bit of history: Stagefright Patch Round 1: 4.6.3 (463001420) / Stagefright Patch Round 2: 4.6.3 (463001620)

Don't let the numbers confuse you, it doesn't really mean anything at this point. ;)

They chose to partner up with AT&T and this resulted in having a separate version.

Even with an unlocked phone, the OS version doesn't change ofc., it just affects the netlock which is stored in the hardware.

Hello all,

I really like the weather animation on the lockscreen, and I'm planning to use it if it's possible for my weather station ( based on a raspberry )

So my question is sample : do you know where I can get these animation ?

I'm rooted if it can help.

Thanks you !!! :)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rick09:
Simply go to "settings", "lock screen", and check weather animation. I'm not sure what you mean by raspberry or if it will work correctly in your area. If it does enabling that option will make it look like the video you linked to.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] epicboy:
Hey guys. So I'm new to this device. And I updated to OC1 without knowing the consequences... Such as no SMS or Data...(I'm on T-Mobile) But I got root and installed stang5litre rom. AFAIK custom recoveries are a no no. So my only option of installing a rom is through flashfire. Now which roms can I install using this program?

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xdadevnube:
I would also like to know this, as it doesn't seem Flashfire is supported by most ROMs, but they still might work. I suppose if it failed once to Odin to stock and try another ROM...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackra1n:
If you're on OC1 the only Roms that you can flash are TW which there are only like 4 and the only stable one is Strang5Litre which I personally recommend.

[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spix123:
High % of battery used by cell standby means you are not using device much, it is normal. Also note that battery stats are not always accurate. To increase standby time make sure to close all background apps and turn off mobile data before letting phone idle. It'd be much easier to tell if there is a problem if you post screenshot showing battery stats and screen on time.

This is one theme, in English, for, the only one working TWRP running for Honor 7.

2) On your phone, create one folder, "TWRP" inside internal memory, in the root.

3) Inside, of "TWRP" folder, create another one folder, that you call "theme", inside put it the "ui.zip" file without rename. Of Course, the theme will uncompress, during working.

!!! Use only this recovery :

https://mega.nz/#!a0wjAJ7a!wmDLq8Cz4Kfb5a01z3K-xsTrDWBO2lVv8Nxym7qHtkM for the moment is only this one working (File is : twrp_cn.img / 8Mo )

It's chinese, but with the theme, I gave you before, you don't care, because your have one TWRP working in English. :)

4) Flash this recovery, and only this one !!!

5) After that you will have one good recovery on your phone.

[Honor 7 General] El Philou:
I done flash recovery chinese TWRP, with Ok and all times, I came back to Stock Recovery too !!! Agrrrr...

But after many try, I found the solution, in fact after recovery flash ( TRWP) we stay with the usb power ( from computer ) plug in the H7...

Wrong idea :( , after flash, leave H7, go to, reboot in system, unplug your usb cable, switch off H7, and now you will have your H7 with TRWP recovery... :)

I don't know why, but before boot in recovery, UNPLUG your usb cable, after you can do with or without cable :)

If this, help you, don't forget to say thank you ;)
[Honor 7 General] Schneefalke:
OK, maybe, in my case, it was a combination of both. I'm not absolutely sure, but I think it could be, that I also unplugged it, before doing a 4Button-boot.
