Hi,

In my possession i have the following firmwares:
...BOC4
...BOD5
and my phone is installed on the ...BOG5 firmware.

I wanted to know out of the above three which firmwares can be rooted, if any? So that i can flash the rootable firmware on my S5 verizon and root the phone.

thanks.

Your question has already been answered in a previous thread you started. Your phone is on BOG5 firmware therefore the only firmware you can flash onto your phone is BOG5. BOC4 and BOD5 can be rooted, but you cannot flash either onto your phone. Your phone cannot be rooted.

Ouch! Frosty are we? Must have been a bad day as usual for you..
Anyway, FYI: I didn't ask that question before, I asked about downgrading ans this is about replacing current 5.0 firmwares with other 5.0 firmwares.
Lighten up man, take it easy with life and you won't be so bitter all the the time. :eek:

The problem is this question has been asked many times and the answer will never change. If you are on OG5, you cannot downgrade, you cannot flash backwards, and you cannot root. Period. Sorry, but you can thank Verizon and Samsung for that.

Any likely root to come out in the near future then? For example when this version of firmware gets old and they get another update firmware released.
Do everyone here a favor and search before you post. It is rule#1, and your questions have all been answered countless times. Maybe YOU should give it a rest instead.
