Unlocked Bootloader

[diver47591]

Is the bootloader unlock exploit "[GUIDE] Unlocking the Galaxys S5 Bootloader using DEV Bootloader" by GeTex a usable method by the masses with the caveat one must posess the technical proficiency?

Well now that it's been compiled into an automated apk, yeah. As long as you can root, and have a Samsung eMMC, you can do it.

Read the post. Make sure you have a CID that ends in 15. If you do, then run the program. If you don't know the rest, then you shouldn't be doing this, but here ya go:

Find TWRP for the Galaxy S5, then download a ROM that is compatible with the kltevzw and flash it. I've been running CM13 flawlessly for almost a month.

open it as a text file, and the first two digits will be either 15 (good) or 14 (bad).

Hi larryk

I opend the file and i found the number 15, so i can move on with the steps. I used ASTRO Explorer. Wich method you recomend to use?

Thank you for your help.

All of the methods in http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...t/rd-unlocking-galaxys-s5-bootloader-t3337909 work, but method one is the easiest...
