Root for Galaxy S5 on Marshmallow

[anon(632115)]

No need to reset but flashing a new ROM you will definitely lose root, there's no need to check. Trouble is whether the update phone can be rooted as downgrading is generally out of the question

Hey guys please I really need help. I followed every step shown in the guide and in the video here [SM-G900*] CF-Auto-Root | Samsung Galaxy S 5 then I download this file SM-G900T (T-Mobile US): CF-Auto-Root-kltetmo-kltetmo-smg900t.zip then I open up odin and see the COM blue then I did like in the video. Then the box said RESET and my device reset and got stuck in the recovery booting recovery is not seandroid enforcing window. Am I ****ed? There is no red android . What am I doing wrong? I did exactly and read word for word. Please help...

Hello and welcome to Android central joshsamsung182

Reflash the CF-Auto_root kernel for the G900T model, again and if it boot loops, wipe the phone's cache partition as per # 1.3 of S5 Update Problems - Dummies Guide to see if that solves your issue.

The international model, G900F, does not need to be carrier unlocked to root it. The international model, unlike some of the U.S. variants, also does not have a locked bootloader, either.

What are your actual full firmware details, as per #1.8 of 42 Galaxy S5 models - Dummies Guide

Ap : G900fxxs1cpi6
cp : G900fxxs1cpc9
csc : G900ftph1cpe2

 

[psyc969]

Sorry these is the correct
AP : G900FXXS1CPI6
cp : G900FXXU1CPC9
csc : G900FTPH1CPE2

 

[ironass]

Sorry these is the correct
AP : G900FXXS1CPI6
cp : G900FXXU1CPC9
csc : G900FTPH1CPE2

So your actual build, not baseband, is PI6. In that case, you will need to use the PH3 CF-Auto-Root, here. This is for PH3 and higher, builds.

Wipe the phone's cache partition as per #1.3 of S5 Update Problems - Dummies Guide

 

[psyc969]

i did it Volume UP + Power + Home but go to same error

 

[psyc969]

Got it!!
i tryed again in download mode ( only thing that boot )with build G900FZHU1CPH3 but same error .
tryed the other build G900FXXU1CPD3 and worked .
It seems that what matters is the ZH and XX in builds,(seems that has to do with the global version)
hope this helps someone with same problem!!!!
thanks for the answers

That was indeed, my bad! At 02.00 hrs in the morning, I am not at my best. I clicked on the wrong CF-Auto-Root link, for ZHU, (Hong Kong), instead of the one above for XXU, (Global). Glad you are up and running.

Hello and welcome to Android Central Junior Sanches!

Just follow the instructions in the links of post #1 to root your Brazillian dual sim model, G900MD. The CF-Auto-Root kernel is...

I already ****ed up so i need help getting out of the Samsung logo with the "recovering booting".
Any way to try again?
Trying to do a Recovery boot does not work either.
