GT7105 su keeps stopping....

Hi... I followed the installation instructions for CF-AUTO-ROOT exactly and it appeared to install with no problems. However SuperSU just keeps stopping and I don't have root. I installed SuperSU Pro and that made no difference. I just want a simple root option with no fancy features so that I can use Exposed. I used this method on the same computer to root my S3, and had no trouble?!?!

Any ideas? Thank's if you can help :)

Honestly I have no idea what is going on with the G901F. Is there a different firmware available the stock recovery can be pulled from? Is the device bootloader locked?

I notice its the only device a CFAR has been made for so far that has this specific chipset, could be related to that as well.

Damned !

This one really hard to root.
Pretty recent device, I know it's gonna come soon.

Fingers crossed.

@Chainfire:

As CFAR for SM-G901F is not working, maybe with this recovery?

It would be great to test.

Thanks in advance
Franky




Request:

Samsung Galaxy S5 Prime 4G+ SM-G901F

That's the same one currently on the site.

Can you post the cache.img file from the firmware?

Hello i'm searching for a root method for the Note 3 Neo 7505 with 4.4.2,can you help me?

Does this one not work?

http://download.chainfire.eu/399/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-hllte-hlltexx-smn7505.zip

If not, please describe exactly what happens - during all the steps of flashing and booting. Maybe it needs an update.

I will have to learn how to extract recovery. No mine ends in G.

Ok. How do I extract recovery?

Extract ZIP file. Rename .tar.md5 to .tar. Open with WinRAR (or equivalent, many archivers can open .tar file). Extract recovery.img file.

However, is this an AT&T device? Most recent AT&T devices are bootloader locked and cannot be rooted by CF-Auto-Root method.

This one work for the 4.3 jelly bean but not for the new firmware kitkat 4.4.2
In your page here http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ ,there is only the root for 4.4.2 N705 not for 4.4.2 N7505.
For the N7505 the only versions are for 4.3 firmware.
If i try to use the same AutoRoot my samsung go in soft brick.

Yes. AT&T. Dang! I was in a situation where I was going out of town for funeral and my S3 died. The store was out of the LG G3 and HTC M8.


Wait a minute that doesn't make sense to me. My Droid Bionic had a bootloader that was never unlocked and yet I had root and I used to flash custom ROMs using safestrap.

    CF-Auto-Root is the root for "rooting beginners" and those who want to keep as close to stock as possible. CF-Root is meant to be used in combination with stock Samsung firmwares, and be the quickest and easiest way for your first root. In essence, it does nothing but install and enable SuperSU on your system, so apps can gain root access.

    This thread serves as a central discussion and request thread for CF-Auto-Root. If you have questions about a specific CF-Auto-Root binary for a specific device, please go the relevant thread listed on the CF-Auto-Root homepage.

    Donate
    CF-Root and CF-Auto-Root have been available for many devices (over 50 different models !) and have clocked over 9 million downloads. This is not even counting custom ROMs that include CF-Root (non-Auto) kernels. Don't be a leech, buy me a beer (and use the "Thanks" button!). Imagine if every user had donated me $1...

    What's installed
    - SuperSU binary and APK
    - Stock recovery (note that any other recovery you may have installed will be overwritten !)

    What's the difference between CF-Auto-Root and CF-Root, and/or other root solutions ?
    CF-Root (non-Auto) are manually built rooted kernels and/or flashables that usually provide more than "just root". CF-Auto-Root is built on an automated system that I am constantly improving that takes a stock recovery image and returns an automated rooting packages. These packages are designed to install and enable SuperSU on your device, so apps can gain root access, and nothing more.

    The difference with many other rooting solutions is that those will often install a custom recovery for you (I am personally moving away from custom kernels and recoveries, for various reasons), while with CF-Auto-Root you will end up with a stock recovery again.

    Not included - custom recovery
    A custom recovery like CWM or TWRP is not included.

    Not included - Triangle Away
    Triangle Away can be used to reset the flash counter after installing CF-Root. The flash counter keeps track of how many custom firmwares you have flashed, as this voids warranty. (No idea what this about ? Read up on it, you will want to use this !)

    Not included - adbd Insecure
    As this CF-Root does not include a custom kernel, adb shell does not have root access by default (you can still get it by typing su inside the shell), nor is adb remount supported, nor will adb push and adb pull work on system files. adbd Insecure can be used to remedy this situation. (No idea what this is about ? Don't worry about it !)

    Requirements and requests

    The the CF-Auto-Root project currently supports the following base boards:

    - Samsung Exynos4
    - Texas Instruments Omap4
    - Qualcomm MSM8660

    Other boards will probably be added soon. Currently only Samsung devices are supported, but I'm looking to expand into other devices soon as well.

    To be able to make CF-Auto-Root for a device:

    - The device needs to have (and use) separate kernel and recovery partitions
    - The kernel and recovery format must be the boot.img standard (no zImage support)
    - I need the recovery.img file, so post it in this thread if you need support for a new device :)
    107
    Devices and threads

    The full list of all supported devices is always available and always current at the CF-Auto-Root homepage.

    Most supported devices have their own threads here on XDA, you can find the thread for your device in the device listing on the CF-Auto-Root homepage as well.

    I will not be maintaining a secondary list in this post, as it would be double work.

    First of all, wasn't sure if it was allowed to post on this thread (it's odd, 4 days old and no post), as I've seen nothing saying I shouldn't, here I go.

    Newbie question here:

    1) Is it possible to flash CWM Recovery with this root?
    2) I'm willing to flash it, should I then just root using CF-Root(non-auto) as it already comes with CWM?
    3) The version of CWM on CF-Root (non-auto) is already outdated, would it be a problem if I just flashed the new version over it with ODIN (download it from clockworkmod.com/rommanager and flash)?


    I ask this because I want to keep my phone as stock as possible, but want to be able to perform a Nandroid backup and flash some ZIPs (if there's a way to perferm/restore Nandroid backups and flash ZIPs w/o CWM please tell me how :) )

    This thread is pretty much quiet because most of the supported devices have their own threads ;)

    (1) Root is a separate thing from CWM. CF-Auto-Root does not include CWM, but if your device has a CWM build you can certainly flash it. The "ROM Manager" app will be able to install it if your device has an "officially" supported CWM build from Koush himself.
    (2) If a CF-Root (non-auto) is available then it's probably outdated. I do not maintain any CWM builds anymore, but others do for most devices, so you should be able to find one.
    (3) You can do that no problem.

    I use Mobile ODIN for flashing ZIPs, but it does not do backup/restores (yet *wink*). For my other backup needs, I use Titanium Backup.

    But to each their own. Some people prefer CWM, some people prefer TWRP, some people like me prefer stock so we can keep the counters at 0/official, etc. CF-Auto-Root keeps all our options open. It doesn't prevent you from anything, though it does also not include anything like that.
