Thanks a lot and confirm this is working on international version JDQ39.I9505XXUAMDE 
[ROOT] Root Samsung Galaxy S4 with Motochopper
- Thread starter djrbliss
- Start date
Can someone who knows what they're doing upload or email me (dan.j.rosenberg@gmail.com) the aboot and TZ partitions from their device? They should be mmcblk0p6 and mmcblk0p8 respectively. Please mention exactly which device you have (model and carrier).
Just want to say Thanks for the Root Method. Rooted my Sprint S4 no problem. Any word on TWRP?

Now all we need is a "tether hack" and we are set! Why AT&T won't let us set a hotspot without charging extra? I mean it still consumes data when you are tethering!
This circumvents carrier block at least on at&t s4. Works great.
No root needed.

You are kidding me!!! It works for real? (rethoric question).
Running to the store now to get my SG4 now! I was waiting for the tether hack... but if you say this app works on AT&T, I'm going now!
Thanx men!
Go to general and watch the vídeo. Its very easy.

Did you extract all the files for the root out of the zip file first? Sounds like you may be just double clicking the. bat while the rest is zipped still.

I have extracted all of the motochopper zip file to a folder and run the zip.
I would redownload the archive and try again. That syntax doesn't look right. Some of the words are cut off in the beginning of those lines.

that was my copying and pasting :silly:
I have downloaded the files about 3 times and still getting the same.
Main thing is it is showing ADB out of date..?
It looks like you're having an issue with adb getting Protocol failures during "adb push" so none of the subsequent steps are working. I'd start by making sure you have the correct drivers installed (you can get them from samsungmobile.com under the Support tab -> Downloads for our phone). If that doesn't fix it, search your computer for other copies of "adb.exe" and the two DLL files included in the zip. Clean them up if you have them (probably c:\windows or c:\windows\system32 - most guides have you dump them in there).
Kies will install them, just uninstall the software and leave the drivers when it prompts you for a decision.
You can leave the software but it will always the syncing the phone every time you plug it in.
You can live without the software but absolutely need the drivers... unless you configure it not to sync when you plug it into a pc

OP forgot to update to NEW ADB in original DL link... If you delete that one and DL a new copy from the provided link, it should work

418A recent root exploit I published for Motorola devices, Motochopper, should do the trick for rooting the Qualcomm-based variants of the Samsung Galaxy S4, including the AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile branded models.
Download the exploit here:
http://vulnfactory.org/public/motochopper.zip
Instructions:
- Extract the entire contents of the zip file.
- If you are using Windows, ensure you have installed the latest Samsung USB drivers available for your phone.
- Ensure USB Debugging mode is enabled on your device.
- Connect your device to your PC via USB.
- If you are using Windows, navigate to the extracted directory and execute "run.bat". If you are using Linux or OS X, navigate to the extracted directory in a terminal and execute "./run.sh".
- Approve the ADB connection from your PC on your device.
Warning:
At this point, since there are no custom recoveries or stock images available, it may not be possible to repair your device should you accidentally break it. Please be aware of this before performing any modifications to your phone.
As always, future OTA updates may remove the ability to regain root access, so proceed with caution when updating. Enjoy!

Go to System Settings --> About Phone and tap several times on Build Number.9
Sorry about that, just needed to update the version of ADB I was including. It should work fine now. Try downloading a fresh copy from the same link and trying again.
I've updated the instructions to mention that you will need to approve the ADB connection from your PC on the device.9I tried to send a PM to @djrbliss but he has it disabled.
CASUAL handles Windows, Linux, and Mac in a single Java JAR. you can open it up and go into the /SCRIPTS/ folder then open the SCR to see your code rewritten in CASUAL format.
The benefeit of CASUAL scripting is that it performs troubleshooting for the user
Download http://d-h.st/64i
Anyway, i always rewrite in CASUAL format because its more useful to have a single file that works on all platforms rather than a zip file that has differences for each.6
Its more original than anything else that will be in this forum. djrbliss is the originating other of the exploit, and the person that located the vulnerability used.
