Please Help! :crying:
My s5-g900v got stuck in a bootloop after a failed root attempt, and when I try to use ODIN to restore the stock firmware, it always says:
Fail! (auth)
Complete(Write) operation failed.
PLEASE HELP ME!
You need to install a lollipop firmware like ok3 or pb1 download either from Sammobile and then flash with odin.
search XDA for ok3 root the using that method gain root. I think it is a sticky in the xda s5 verizon forum
you may also be able to unlock your bootloader check out unlock bootloader thread for kk-mm for s5 verizon I think it is a sticky in the XDA s5 verizon forum.
Hope this helps
Ps
once you get root
go to Brens123 guide I booted ncg on pb1 bootloader to get 4.4.2 KitKat on your s5 it's a thread in verizon s5 general on xda
except the bootloader will still be lollipop so its not a full downgrade

I had a Galaxy S5 4.4.4 December update from Verizon and tried flashing what I believed was a stock Verizon rom from Sammobile in order to apply towelroot. I am now stuck in a bootloop and could use a stock rom. I am new to flashing roms so any help would be appreciated. I couldn't find a link to a Verizon stock doing a search so if someone could provide a link that would be great. Also I have Odin 3.09 on my computer that I am able to use.

Here is all you need. Read the tar install instructions and it may solve your problem.
Thanks for the help. My phone is now working again and I can download the towelroot app.
Recently, I unroot my GT-i9505 and flashed a stock Samsung 5.0.1 to my phone. Now I wanna root my device again and flash a Deodexed stock Samsung 4.4.2. I search through the internet and multiple forum. Every method I try, it fail. Most the time Odin will run until recovery.img then either stuck or fail.
The rom I'm using is lrx22c.i9505xxuhoa7. I tried to use CF-auto root, doesn't work. What you guys recommend me to do?
Search in S4 General. There are tutorials for rooting an Android 5.0.1 device. After that, install a recovery through Odin and flash away.
tell us if you ca do the downgrade, because i want to do the upgrade now, but i don´t now if i will satisfied with lollipop, thanks!
I search for numerous post and thread on internet already. Pretty much none is working.
Here's some method I tried and doesn't work. Also, I can't even install TWRP recovery.

I'm not sure I'm missing something. When I flash, do I really have to wipe data and re-partition?
I can't answer that. I never installed Touchwiz 5.0.1 on my device and went straight from my Black Edition ROM to Danvdh's GPE ROM.
I have the att i337 (galaxy s4) that i have rooted and have safestrap 3.72 installed on. I followed the directions http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/guide-odin-to-stock-updating-rooting-t2926642 for the installation.
recently i saw that android 5.0 was released for this phone. I currently am as 4.4.4
what's the best way for me to update the phone. I've tried ota, but it failed.
can i just remove the safestrap software and do the update then? I really don't want to lose my information on the phone again
You could follow the keep root guide in general section.. Try to keep questions in the correct thread thanks and good luck..

ended up just flashing using the instructions from http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-to-update-to-i337oc3-5-0-1-keeproot-t3075814
we'll see what happens from here.
Hello, so yesterday I update my galaxy s5 sm-g900v from lollipop 5.0 to marshmallow 6.0.1 successfully , but I'm not able to change the system language to French because there's only English and Spanish , I want to change the language without root because I've searched and there is no solution without root and as you know there is no root yet for marshamllow.
the question is am i able to downgrade to lollipop 5.0 and root my phone ? if yes , Please point me in the right direction and guide me how to downgrade because i read that some Bootloaders they can't downgrade to earlier version and I don't want to brick my phone.
My Build number ends in: DPD1
First do a backup/transfer important data to a computer You can downgrade to pb1 or ok3 firmware downloads from sammobile.Com flash in odin it will sofrtbrick so boot to recovery mode and wipe data and cache
Then setup and to get root go to this thread on xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/root-method-og5-ok3-t3290370
