How about you flash any custom rom you want and then use root cloak which hides the root from apps you define meaning your banking app can't see that you are rooted.
This way you can be rooted and use banking app. You will need to have xposed installed for this to work. Use Google to read up on root cloak.

Sadly this doesn't work with the Barclay's banking app, I've done a lot of searching to find a solution and nothing

There is a good reason not to use banking apps with root... I wouldn't risk doing that... Also to root and unroot or change the kernel every time is cumbersome

You can search and download stock ROM for your phone, then flash via Odin.

Depends upon your usage. In case you are not a fan of customization, then remain unrooted.

Google Edition ROM Without Root

Hi,
I'm wanting to flash a google edition ROM on my i9505 but i don't want it to be rooted after flashing the rom as i use my Barclays Mobile Banking app and SkyGo and they don't work when rooted.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
PS - yes i know i will have to be rooted to flash but hopefully i can flash and not be rooted...

not so sure about flashing and removing root being possible, but u will probably be able to find modified versions of the apps u use that with the root-check removed

Root without custom recovery or ROM.. Knox?

I want to root and keep stock ROM and stock recovery and all.
Basically only want to delete bloat with titanium and use greenify.
Will this trigger Knox? Is it even possible?
no, any rooting currently triggers the knox counter

if u r using greenify donate, the xposed installer has to be version 2.3 beta 1. version 2.2 encountered "cannot write /data/xposed/modules.list" error.
i spent quite some time trouble shooting as the xposed forum thread did not mention the beta version on the opening post.
It may be possible to remove bloatware without root:

Please note, I have NOT tried it, so cannot vouch for its veracity or safety. If anyone can, I'd be grateful.

which lollipop ASOP rom that i can full unroot?

I need my phone to be fully unrooted because of banking apps that requires unrooted phones. root never bothered me at all.
so which lolipop rom can do that ?
Any AOSP ROM, either by uninstalling SuperSU after installation, or - in the case of the latest versions of CyanogenMod - disabling root access in the settings.

CM12 and CM12.1 come with root disabled by default. Root can be activated or disabled from the developer settings.
Any custom rom based on CM12 or CM12.1 should have the ability to disable root that way.

Rooting issue Note 4

Guys,
I rooted my note 4 N910G using CF root method.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note...-root-t2897428
When I open xmod and other root apps, its asking for root access and its granted. But those apps are asking me to root again.
Means those apps are acting like my phone is not rooted..
Not able to install viper in stock ROM.
May I know the best rooting method for our N910G?
I don't want to install custom ROM because I'm not getting more than 3 hrs SOT.
Thanks.

looks like it is hard to find root for N910G on 5.1.1.. i have been looking all over but to no avail...
You need to install a modified kernel in order to properly root your phone.
