More info please. What kernel, what ROM, what root did you use? I'm nice, but some people on this forum would eat you alive for leaving a post like this.

I'm sorry amigo - I know very little about phones - new to this world. I'm pretty good with computers though. I learn fast.
It's Kernel version 2.6.29
build number SPH-D700 ECLAIR.DI18.
Firmware: 2.1-update1
I used one.click.root.exploitv2.2.4 to root the phone. I haven't installed any other ROMS (Is there a place on the phone or within Rom Manager where it displays which exact ROM I am running?).

You're already on DI18, no need to update.
The build number shows you the ROM you're running

Ah great. Thank you.

LOL, no one probably knows because most on this forum are r00ted....
The CRC build should be CRC1, I know that much and the firmware version should be 1.5, I will have to look into the others.
I am rooted too..........but I need to know. LOL
it should read the .19.26 radio as well i believe, i am not sure on any of the other stuff though cause i keep updating daily to new roms. why do you need to know what it should say?? as long as it is unrooted or has never been rooted and shows 1.5 then the rest will come up as it is supposed to, on a non-rooted phone there is no way to change the radio without the entire build being changed or anything else.
I am having some phone issues need to return and want to make sure it is current when I return it!
Model Number -T-Mobile G1
Firmware Version -1.5
Baseband Version- 62.50S.20.17H_2.22.19.26I
Kernel Version- 2.6.27-00393-g6607056 [email protected] #1

My reason of asking was that I thought stock firmware modders would know what were the changes. At least from what files had been changed. Guess I was wrong then.
which is better
based from samsung updates, LS6 is newer than LR1 but the later has higher changelist

Asia Galaxy Note N7000 build ZSLR1
Has anyone successfully rooted the Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 build ZSLR1 with jelly bean? If so, please show this nooby which file to download and the exact steps to install the root file for the android phone? I know nothing about rooting and my phone is giving me a lot of trouble of running out of storage space or insufficient storage when there is a 32GB external micro SD card in it.
Please help!!
Thanks in advance!!!
If you do not know anything about this: start reading and learn. There are many excellent tutorials in all the sticky threads made by members exactly for this purpose.
If you do not want to do this (and by asking for "exaxt steps" it feels like this): do not root, stay on stock and be happy. Even here you can solve your problems by simply making a factory reset and remove apps if necessary.
Do not assume people did not read what is posted, when you assume you just showed that you are arrogant and disrespectful. And if you have nothing better to say other then show off your power in a web site, you can STFU.
Guess this site is not as helpful either!!
Thanks a bunch!

Hi,
I just read The Beginner's Guild to Root Galaxy Note, I am not sure which kernel I need to download for use with Method 2 to root my phone. My Galaxy Note 1 is running JB 4.1.2. Baseband Version is N7000XXLT3, Kernel Version is totally different than what was explained on the guide. My Kernel Version reads something like this: 3.0.31-1279458
[email protected] #3
SMP.PREEMPT Mon Jun24 19:41:50 KST 2013
No idea which kernel will match with this version for the root process; I looked in the link provided, seems like it's all letters for the kernel files and not numbers like mine, not sure what to look for there; if someone could kindly point me the right file to download, that would be much appreciated!!
Also, the Build number on my phone is: JZO54K.N7000ZSLR1. I found from your site that there is a file called "PhilZ-cwm6-ZSLR1-OZS-5.11.2-signed". Will this be the file I need to root my phone? And by following method 2 in the guide, will this file do the job then? Please confirm!
I am planning to use method 2 to root my phone, seems to be the easiest and safest way to do so. Just want to make sure I got the right file/kernel and the right way to do it, please advise!! Thanks a bunch!!

[Q] Towelroot no longer works... ideas?

I'm pretty new to the Android phones. I bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 tablet about a year ago, and I absolutely love it -- which was the only reason why I considered an Android phone when it came time to upgrade. That might have been a mistake.
The phone I chose was a Galaxy S5 from AT&T.
For many reasons I won't go into (and that many of you probably know) Kitkat is awful. Removing SD card access removed one of the most important reasons that I bought the phone. So, I decided to root the thing.
I read a bunch of info on how to root, and, eventually downloaded and tried to use towelroot only to discover that AT&T/Google have blocked all functionality of that program. My build is, unfortunately, the latest build -- July 22 2014 (or there abouts).
Now, I'm not sure if the phone was given to me with that update -- I only got the thing on Sunday. Maybe it was, maybe not. Dunno. So I have a couple of questions.
If I were to factory reset the phone, would that roll back these "Security" OTA updates that were pushed onto the phone? I'm pretty sure there was at least one after I got the thing. I've spent a fair amount of time setting the phone up, but I'll do it again if a factory reset would allow me to root the phone and return the SD card functions.
Is there a way to push an earlier version of the ROM onto the phone. I'm guessing not, since I think I read that AT&T helpfully locked the bootloader.
Finally, does anyone know of any way to root this device if neither of the two paths I presented above will work?
Thanks for any help. If I can't restore the SD card functionality, I'll probably just return the phone. That would be a bummer because I was really excited about it.

I see that there are tutes here, and am wading through the 50+ pages of forum posts to find what I need. However, my worry is that none of this stuff will work because of the new firmware. Here is all the info that I have on my phone:
Galaxy S5 AT&T US version (SAMSUNG-SM-900A)
Android 4.4.2
kernel version 3.4.0-2178781 [email protected] #1 Tuesday July 22
Build # KOT49H.G900AUCU2ANG3
SE for Android Status
Enforcing SEPF_SAMSUNG-SM-G900A_4.4.2_0018 Tuesday July 22
Security Software version:
MDF v1.0 Release 3
VPN v1.4 Release 1
Thanks all the pertinent info, I think.
Because the update was so new, I don't think there's a way to root this anymore. People keep telling me to use ODIN and to download an earlier ROM (and I now have ODIN and an earlier ROM -- hopefully from a good source, but I have no idea if it is), but my impression is that this latest AT&T "security" update keeps you from reflashing the ROM because of the bootloader lockout.
Any further help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hello,
As I told you, the only method working for me (because of towelroot non working) is cf auto root.
Check periodicaly here http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ to see if your model is listed.
I had just a look and it's not listed yet.
If it is, flash by odin and look if root works.
If not, you've got to flash by odin the same rom again (keep your original file on pc), you'll loose nothing, and report this fails on chainfire to test other solution.
Good luck

Not only build number and kernel version, you need to check your Bootloader version with Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app (in the FIRMWARE INFO section).
Bootloader version is one of the important info to check when you are going to root or flashing custom rom.

Hey that looks like a great utility. Thanks! The bootloader is G900AUCU2ANG3
Does that help any? People keep telling me I need to use ODIN and flash this, that or the other thing. Those comments would probably be more helpful if I knew more about this stuff, but my reading has lead me to believe that ODIN won't work with certain version of the bootloader. Or is that wrong?

I:silly:'ve only done that stuff on my old iPhone, but when i switched to android it was like coming from north korea to china. Its just so much freedom I've never experienced before and i'm super happy i'm here( china i guess) but i couldn't imagine what america freedom feels like...and i'm guessing having it rooted and flashing custom Kernel would be like coming to america. I doubt ill ever get around to using those things to there full potential, so i guess ill just upgrade the firmware... unless you have movies or stories of the freedom im missing i doubt ill venture out to go find it. thank you for your info and looking forward to your reply

No custom kernel for us. We have a locked bootloader. We do have custom Roms. I would root but that is just me. I dislike all the bloatware if nothing else. You don't have to use your phone any differently but you never know when you will come across a great app or something and it requires root.
You are on the right firmware for root. Install towelroot, make it rain, download SuperSU from the playstore, install and update the binaries (it will ask you to) choose the normal method. Reboot your phone and you are rooted. I would go a step further and download busybox from the play store, install the app then install busybox, then install safestrap which is our custom recovery.
You can still just run a stock ROM if you wish but you now have the ability to change your phone to a certain degree. At least get rid of some bloatware. Otherwise, I'd try kies first and see if it will update your phone.

someone else had posted something similar also for the T280 in the development thread (one of those either by jedid or ashyx). It turned out be a 5.0.1 (for some reason was incorrectly listed as 6.0.1) Not sure if this is the real thing or the same incorrect listing

I got a bug fix and security patch (Jan '17) update a few days ago, still lollipop though. I doubt we'll get marshmallow, we would've got it by now if they were going to give it to us, I don't mind too much because it pretty much caters for my needs as it is. Don't pin your hopes on a custom ROM either, this doesn't seem like much of a popular device, at least the model running a spreadtrum processor anyway.
