Straight Talk, Tracfone, Net10 Samsung Galaxy S5 S903VL - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I am currently searching for a root method to root my S903VL, It's a Galaxy S5 sold by Straight Talk, Tracfone and Net10
I have searched and searched and the only thing that specifically deals with this phone is a forum that has the firmware files for stock...

I would really like to get this phone rooted running a custom recovery, preferrably a touch recovery. If anyone has any information relevant to this phone model please leave me some info. If you are a skilled developer that has interest in this please by all means pm me. I have tried going to some of the pay to root sites and even they are stumped. Anyway if anyone knows or knows someone who would know how or what to do please ask, tell and share this.
Thanks!

Rooting AT&T S5?

So I just got my S5 from AT&T and I would like to root it. I've seen maybe two or three methods that either used towelroot or odin? I was just hoping someone on here could point me in the right direction towards a root that wont brick my phone. Post a link to the guide?
Just FYI, there is a specific forum for AT&T S5.

I can't find a way to root my phone. I have tried everything.
Is this phone just unpopular and won't be rooted?

I have also been having the same issue. I have spent countless hours trying to root this phone with no luck. If you find a way please let me know. I'm going crazy trying to find a way. If I find something I too will let you know.

Installing Stock T-Mobile ROM on AT&T N4

Hello everyone!
I really hope this doesn't break any rules, and doesn't automatically get removed! I just joined this website in hopes of getting some help regarding my girlfriend's phone. She has a Samsung Note 4 (SM-N910A) that was originally AT&T and was recently unlocked (no idea how!). She attempted to setup WiFi calling with no avail, and I assume its because everything on it is still AT&T. I tried to look into how to install the stock T-Mobile items, but I'm COMPLETELY lost. If anyone has some basic info I'd really appreciate it! Not looking to do anything else with the phone aside from that.
Thank you so much in advance!

To do that you need to flash T-mobile based rom and your phone must be rooted.but sadly you have AT&T variant and there is no root method available until now.
My best suggestion will be swap your device with unlocked T-mobile variant.
Hey AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4 who is still in Android Lollipop who can temporary root with KingRoot and who has a Windows PC.
If you have a computer, and if you can root with kingroot Use the batch file on a Windows based computer. And please create the unbrick image
Please, for everyone who has a bricked AT&T Note 4
And link me to the unbrick image
Heres the files,

So you have an SM-G900R...
I, personally, would recommend/suggest that you check out the following form that's specific to the USCC (US Cellular) devices.
http://www.teamuscellular.com
The following area of that forum is dedicated to the G900R.
http://teamuscellular.com/Forum/forum/408-samsung-galaxy-s5/
I don't normally suggest another forum though, the XDA Forum does have some threads/posts regarding the USCC S5 but, I believe that it's a bit limited and the above forum does have allot more information specific to this variant.
Good Luck!
