Got the email app installed by changing permissions. The exchange portion will not install now. Ideas?

Er, please take this in a spirit of wishing you well... if you have to ask about the difference between root, bootloader, and recovery, you really are better off not rooting unless you have a very specific and very limited goal in mind. Rooting your device permits you to assume god-like powers over your phone's file structure, files, and their contents. As supersuser, do the wrong thing and you could brick your phone or at least seriously degrade its capabilities.
Again, if you have to ask, you're better off letting this one go. [/smile]
Extract the .zip file and look inside the "common" folder. There should be a file named "Superuser.apk" that will install like a normal app. You have to allow app installations from outside sources if you haven't already.
Details on the pin bypass procedure?
I downloaded the 6.0 email apk and exchange apk and put them in the system / app folder. Now what? I get errors if I try to run those apks.

Where were they from? Sounds like they were linked need some framework or library files to make work.

logically, you should avoid any vzw updates. SU may fail, but it still works. try running a rooted app. it will ask you to grant permission. I just removed over 12 apps that vzw forced on my phone.

What's funny about this is that I've received 0 updates from Verizon on the Galaxy S5 since it's purchase. Guaranteed they start flying out now once the news of the S5 being rooted spreads.
Sure, but I cannot guarantee you won't have any issues. I managed to remove a decent amount of bloat apps and rebooted successfully. I will list them below.
- Google +
- Google Books
- Google Play Music
- Audible
- VZW protection
- Messaging +
- Amazon
- Kindle
- Amazon Appstore
- IMDB
- VZW ringtones
- VZW protection and support
- Isis Wallet
and a few more that I cannot remember. I hope this helps.

Wouldn't the bootloader need to be unlocked first?
hey mate can i get some help from you. Ive been and ios user for years. Ive switched to samsung and have the s5 international. All i wanted to do was delete all the bloatware from my phone to have access to the memory ram i want. What would be the steps to doing this.
Rooting first? do i need to install extra apps, files? new to this so please go easy. Only ever rooted one phone before. Cheers
Anyone got viper4andriod fx working,I've got it installed with driver,driver status is all good expect for processing,I just want to boost my system audio,followed all the set ups on the thread,maybe the kernel is not compatible?I've always used it on custom roms,any help would be appriciated,I've changed build prop like it tells you,tried compatable mode with audio settings off on viper ,tried normal mode with viper on in system sound settings,tried forcing viper ,installed as system app,and user app,I'm out of options.
It works with MX player,but that when I'm playing audio or video files from srorage,but I'm looking to boost system audio like when you tap on keyboard or press back button,I know when I've used viper4andriod in custom roms and used the extra loud option,and switch between slight,moderate,or extreme I could hear it as I selected them,so with rocket player that will allow that,or it will do what mx player is already doing?I had an issue with it. You can't use the stock music app. I use Rocket Player and have no issues.

I've tried that,it doesn't work for me,boosting the speaker that is,are you forcing viper?using compatible mode or normal?and if in sound settings/advanced /music fx, are you using sound alive,music fx,or viper?and did you do the build prop changes,I've tried it every witch way and can't get any boost on speaker.It absolutely works on the stock music app.
But you didn't say if you were trying to boost speaker, bt, headphones, etc. Just put a check next to master power and extra loud if trying to boost the speaker, then restart.
Yea I'm trying to stay as close to stock only getting rid of att bloat,I actually use a lot of the Samsung features,so with root,safe strap,and xposed I don't really need to flash a rom (yet).and I read something about not being able to flash roms with safe strap yet,or something with the slots,didn't fully look into it as I really just needed it for making backups.my rom is severely debloated (only 618mb) but i have not added viper yet.. ricks rom has viper installed and working.. its on my to do list

chainfire needs to update app before well b able to update it.. it still has root and works so be patient.. we cant keep vzw/samsung from patching it on future devices but it will take them a bit of time so id imagine later updates and newer phones yet to come out would be patched.. now we enjoy root until someone down the road (hopefully) gets us custom recovery for custom roms but lets not jump the gun here, we just got root so let the devs enjoy that feat lol

I have never run a stock OS rooted. Always AOKP or CM. What should we do now?
-How to we protect it to make sure VZW doesn't somehow patch it?
-I assume we can enable native tethering without FoxFi?
-I know there is some chatter about SuperSu. It fails to update. Need a new version from Chainfire?
-What will we need to do about updates?
-What else?
GeoHot (and others), you are the man (men). Thanks guys. All bounty pledgers, pay up!
