File to download is here http://download.chainfire.eu/481/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-kccat6-kccat6xx-smg901f.zip
Be informed that Knox will be affected to 0x1 by rooting.
Edit 2014/12/01:
Added CWM Recovery in English working for G901F.
Thanks to @Chenglu for making this possible.
Bugs in CWM:
Aroma interface not working (...Aroma doesn't support MSM OVERLAY display mode, g901f kernel only use MSM OVERLAY...) Pb See here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57163957&postcount=26
Everything else is working.

Ok found my pb by odin and "flash" ROM.
But my S5 is still not rooted.
Did not find anything about this for my model SM-G901F.
Still searching.

Download and flash a G901F rom from Sammobile/firmwares/ with Odin. First pull the battery, wait 30 seconds, boot into downloadmode and connect to the pc and flash the rom with Odin and data factory reset afterwards.

Yep, that's what I did.
It seems that cf auto root is nearly ready for my G901, hope it'll come soon.
Thanks for responding

hi
I sent g901f recovery to Chainfire to make CFAR.
For now it's not working, probably because this phone is the first with s805.
Chainfire is working on it, maybe he will find some path to root it.
just wait and be patient

G901FXXU1ANH6_G901FBOG1ANH4_G901FXXU1ANH6 firmware.

Chainfire build this CFAR from recovery and cache img from ROM.
If they're the same on yours, you've got a chance.
If not, ask Chainfire (he's a beast dev) on his thread, maybe he'll be able to help you.

1. The best is wait till your country receive the udpate. But you can try Poland firmware if your device isn't branded or unlocked.
2. You can use CF-AUTO-Root for root your device.
3. Xposed Framework for android 5.0 still in development. SU works correctly.
4. You can install this APP for know your CSC (country code).

Just downloaded Poland one from sam mobile the zip file only contains 2 files, the md5 file and ssl_dl.dll file, but i think to flash i need 4 or 5 different files on odin.
Can any one tell me how can i flash this firmware?

Hi,
I also flashed the official 5.0 Rom from Poland, it works perfectly. I came from official 4.4.2 rom unrootet, brand free, germany.
Now my question is:
How can I root the 5.0 rom from poland?
Important for me is, that mhl out is still working afterwards.
Does triggering knox create any other problems (excl. warrenty)?
Thank you for your help!

Dude! Stop being lazy, we're not here to spoonfeed you. This isn't called forum.xda-spoonfeeders.com, a simple Google search would have given you the result you were looking for. Helping other users when they have a problem = yes. Doing other users dirty work when it comes to performing a simple search on Google = No.
And besides, sb game hacker is warez and is strictly prohibited here. If you want more lives - buy them, if you want more money - buy it, if you want all levels unlocked - play the game properly....stop cheating! Thread reported to moderator!

Exactly that. A long time ago i wanted to ask him if Google is banned in his country ?
99.5% of his questions could be resolved by a simple search. But obviously spoon feeding is what he prefers. And i can't belive how many people do spoon feed him.

I am against spoon-feeding as well but a simple Google search as you guys lately use to mention quite a lot is not really that simple, I mean typing the keywords and hitting the enter button couldn't be more simple but the search results are not, and that's the relevancy of this post.
Also a lot of people reply anyway, yet they don't care to actually help a member. You guys do realise that XDA isn't really a place of all Einsteins right (no place is)? And you didn't grow up in an hour either? Getting the points?

Sadly, it Fails no matter if I use openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-treltexx.img.tar or CF-Auto-Root-trelte-treltexx-smn910c.tar.md5. I tried using Odin 3.07, 3.09 and 3.10 and it always fails. I've had USB debugging on and off as well as Allow mock locations.
My ROM is stock 5.0.1, build LRX22C.N910C_5.0.1_0011, Wed May 06 15.41.30.2015
I've even tried UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip using the stock Recovery, but it errors with "Unable to authenticate signature file".
Am I missing something to get my Note 4 rooted?
Thanks in advance for any help y'all can offer.

So you have all options required to do what you need within the all such as wipe etc. If flashing any firmware, yes you'll have to reflash xposed. The great thing about the app is that you can put it in a queue to do it all at once so wipe, flash new firmware, flash xposed, done.

On a related note I have an EE EVR build, could I switch to BTU or would that create issues for my device? I ask because the BTU firmware is more up to date than the EE.
