hello guys i am new to evrything here. i just bought my galaxy 3 yesterday and i saw a term called "rooting". i dont know what it is.
I would like to know what are the advantages of rooting my phone and what are the disadvantages of it.
Rooting mean gAining administator rights of your phone...means the full control...like on g3 yu cant use live wallpapers without rootin...and there are programs who need full access to work. .so rootin is necessary...
Its worth

hey guys i tried to root and it failed and my phone is stuck on Samsung logo can anybody tell me what i can do now to make the phone boot up again
Hi guys!
So, I plan to get a brand - new Galaxy S i9000, after years of being a WinMob HTC user. Right now I'm just prospecting around and it's pretty unclear for me where to start reading about the root process the Galaxy S needs to receive. So I decided to call for help, if anyone would care to point me in the right direction with any link(s). Just keep in mind I'm not very familiar with the Android and I'll have a not rooted, unlocked Galaxy S to "play" with (and hopefully not to brick).
Thanks in advance!
Read darkstriders sticky. Download odin. Then read some more. You'll need to flash a custom kernel (cfroot) for whichever firmware your phone is currently running. Then you'll be good to go. Steer clear of anything alpha or beta til you've a bit of experience and know how to fix a soft bricked phone.
Hello everyone,in a few days i'm going to get a G2,but I have a doubt.
Someone told me that there are some problems with achieving root on g2s that have preinstalled kitkat..now,i looked around the g2 forums,but i haven't found anything about that.
Can someone please confirm or deny what i've been told?
help with rooting and flashing
hello all. i know this has probably been covered in other forums but i have been having trouble finding a strait answer. i want to root and flash cyanogenmod to my phone. i have a ATT s4 sgh i337 on 5.0.1. i have flashed and rooted other phones so i am comfortable with it for the most part. i was thinking of rooting using the kingroot method but am not sure if i can then flash cyanogen. im not set on using cyanogen so if there are other better or equal roms let me know to.
thank you all for your tie and sorry for bring this up yet again
I rooted My S5 with this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...oot-method-t3561529/post71202995#post71202995 but now I can't get Samsung cloud, Samsung Sync or Samsung backup to work. I have search the Web for a stock ROM to extract those files from but no luck. Is there a way to upgrade to Marshmallow 6.0 and still keep root? The link that I used says you can flash Marshmallow but will loose root.
I would be happy with a rooted stock Marshmallow and may get back the Samsung account.
So my question , "Is there any way to upgrade from rooted lollipop to a rooted Marshmallow ? This link says you can, but I am not sure if it will work with the Toshiba chip.http://www.samsungsfour.com/tutoria...0v-verizon-on-marshmallow-6-0-1-firmware.html
Can anyone give me some thought and advise ?
Thanks for your time.

Nah bro that won't work you will get stuck on the Verizon screen with the Toshiba chipset but here try this link maybe it can help you out kind of bc this is the closes you're going to get to root on Verizon's locked bootloaders https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...ow-to-flash-custom-6-0-1-roms-locked-t3393943
Thanks GUNSEY101, atleast now I know for sure and not just guessing and wondering. I think it is about time to trash this phone and buy a new one.
This one has been a pain in my bottom ever since I bought it.
Thank you for the help and clearing up the rooted MM delima.

No problem dude glad I could help the sm-g900v is a great phone......When it doesn't have the Toshiba chipset otherwise you're right it's a pain so I'd say get a new one hahaha
Up that Toshiba chip is the downfall of the phone. I like the S5 a lot and have tried to live with it because I don't think the S6 or s7 is really a upgrade. So I don't really know what phone I will get but it will not be a Verizon.
Thanks again for your help

Oh yeah I love my S5 luckily it doesn't have the Toshiba chipset haha and yes the Toshiba chip kinda ruined it bt Verizon has a huge stick up there asses hahaha and Meh I'd say s7 is a bit of an upgrade due to the fact they found a way to root 7.0 however it's very experamental right I'd say https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s7/how-to/how-rooted-s7-nougatand-fixed-lag-t3576393
