Hi,

I always perm rooted my erlier galaxys but I'll try to not do that this time.
Now I only wish to temporarily root so I can see those wake locks troubling me. Is there any way to temp root Galaxy S5 at the moment?

I will be thankful for any answer.

Just root your phone as normal

When you don't want it anymore, unroot it. Go to SuperSU -> Settings -> CleanUp -> Full unroot

Other posts say you have to factory reset after this step and reload the rom via Odin. Are those steps unnecessary? I just want to occasionally watch downloaded movies with flixster. If that is all I have to do, without screwing my phone up, that's great. Not worth it if I have to do all that other stuff though
