I've been an s5 user for almost a year now. And left everything as stock. But now I want to start to root and install custom recovery to start modding my phone. And was just wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of links to what I need to do this. I am familiar with the modding processes as I did a lot of it with my galaxy S3. Just not for the S5. Thanks in advance.

look for cf autoroot and make sure its the right file for your phone. Next time if you ask for a link it would come in handy if you also mention which type of S5 you have
Sorry lol. Its the 900F

Also if you need more info on what I need please let me know
Your asking for help so this should be in the q&a forum. It would really help to know what firmware you're on.

If you don't even realize you are asking about a SPRINT S4 in the AT&T S4 section, you should not be doing anything to your phone until you read and learn about it.

I agree. Also what are your goals for wanting root for your phone? What is it you wanna do with root?
I have been all over xda, google, & youtube and I cannot find any working recoveries for AT&T Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N899A). Am I missing it somewhere? Am I blind or something? I really apologize for asking cause I figure it's an easy answer but, does anybody know how to download and set up a recovery on a rooted SM-N900A?
Anything will help,
Thank you,

1. Wrong forum.
2. My condolences, your bootloader is locked. However, give a goddamn HUGE thanks to @Hashcode - he made this lil' thing - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2572978 . I used a Galaxy S4 (the AT&T variety) with a locked bootloader, Safestrap was the only thing that saved us.

Thank you, I have an At&t s4 & galaxy tab 3 too so, this helps a lot. I came across that page but, I tried the wrong version. I wish we could unlock bootloaders but, devs aren't working on it. maybe I need to study up & start programming.
Thanks,

That is not actually such a bad idea, most best hackers end up working for companies they hacked and make pretty good salaries. The latest one is the guy who came out with towellroot, I hear he is working for Google now.

I saw that. I found safestrap 3.75 that works. I need to learn how to unlock bootloaders.
Hello All,
I'm digging around threads and cannot find a sure fire root method for my Sprint Galaxy Tab 4 7" (T237). If someone could point me towards a definitive good method of rooting my device I'd appreciate it. I've rooted almost all of my phones with Odin and never had an issue but can't seem to find anything. I sort of need a sure fire way to root because I did not add insurance on my device and I used to work for Sprint so getting a phone replaced wasn't an issue. I just want to cover all my bases that the data/LTE will remain working after root. Thanks in advance!!

This only safe thing I can suggest is kingroot http://www.kingroot.net/down (click first download) you can search on YouTube on how to use kingroot so yeah. If that doesn't work, then your going to have do it another way
I have seen a post about the Samsung Tab A and Rooting. This was about a month and half ago. I was wondering if there was a way to root the device. I know it is still a fairly new device.
Thanks for advice in advance

You can just go to www.supersu.com and find a tutorial on how to do it. I want to tell you all of the steps but it is a tedious process so I hope I helped!

Hey there everyone,
I have had the S7 Edge for a long time now, and want to start rooting it and installing TWRP. Was always easy to do it on my previous phones, but this one just has me confused. I've looked through the forums and everything trying to find an answer before writing this, but no luck here.
So, does anyone have a guide or could direct me where or how I am supposed to root and install twrp?
Thank you so very much.

rooting is hacking!
so in new smartphone some companies tried to make it more difficult to approach it
you have to read carefully and do all steps in dev sections.
for example
