AT&T S5 Devs, do we have any? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5

Really curious to see if we have any Devs working on the AT&T S5 yet? If so, when do you all think we can expect to start seeing some stuff in the development threads? Obviously BL needs unlocking, if possible. Do we know of anyone working on this?
Thanks Guys!!!

Wow, you haven't read this forum much before posting, have you.
No root yet = no development yet.

I am aware there is no root. If your insinuating that there is some other thread on the subject, I am fairly certain there is not. If you mean something different entirely then would you please elaborate?

My S5 is coming in today. Locked boot loader means no development ever except for maybe some safe strap stuff much later down the road which is just rehash of stock roms. No AOSP or CM.

I personally don't really care about roms, as I like the new Touchwiz and don't want to lose some of its nice features. I would like to have root, though. Hopefully someone finds a way for that to happen soon.

Edited OP to clarify on some confusion about exactly what I was asking.

Yes indeed. I just want some debloat and maybe a cusom kernel for minor performance tweaks.

Not available for ATT version of the phone, I hope it will sometime soon, not having root sucks.

Chainfire needs to the stock recovery to build root for the device, basically auto root by chainfire modifies stock recovery temporarily, flashes su then flashes back stock firmware through odin.

You can't pull recovery without root on your device, the only thing we ATT users can do is wait for Samsung to post the firmware which they havent, SM-G900A is the ATT model number, Tmo and Sprint are already up so they already have root.

keep refreshing and hope it gets posted soon lol.

hmm

Keep in mind guys that if the ATT BL is locked chances are CF Root will fail to flash or boot even if CF builds one for ATT...also if this happens knox warranty is tripped leaving you without warranty coverage and no root...likely a new KK exploit will have to be found...hope I'm wrong about the BL as I'd like to get rid of bloat before handing the phone off to GF..

Wow this iB4STiD person has some serious thanks racked up!!! Hey iB4STiD, are you going to be working on stuff for the S5?

You better hope he is. He was one of my favorite S4 developers.

He just released some excellent roms for the M8...and they all rock.

I am all over this, there will be a Vision rom soon!:good::good:

You must download mf3 official rom. Then, use the odin tool flash into.

It is not available for the i537, and won't be, unless it gets "leaked" or someone is able to defeat our locked bootloaders. Unfortunately, both are looking less likely every day... Sorry.
thought so

[Q] Custom Rom

Hey does anyone know if there are any custom Roms in the works for the AT&T Galaxy Note 3? Also can we use Roms from other carriers?
Thanks in advance.
No, there is only root at the moment. I believe they are trying to get the boot loader unlocked at the moment

designgears and chainfire are working on it. DG already tripped his knox flag, so who knows how that affects progress. But if anyone can do it, it's these guys. (Having an unnamed source inside Samsung doesn't hurt, I'm sure )

As Noteboy states: There isnt going to be an official update from samsung.
The only way to get the KitKat experience is if you flash an AOSP-based ROM.
Unless somebody develops a kitkat based touchwiz rom; which might never happen.
Unfortunately never.

But isnt it against Kitkat's approach in the first place?
Wasn't kitkat for the old phones as well?
And today I held another phone in my hands for almost like 5 hours or something, after that my note felt like godlike phone.
Note is still good.
Maybe doesn't need kitkat at all but idea to make old phones work more efficient sucks then.

If note 1 is ever getting a update, it's after 2014 April. Custom ROMs are always better, without bloatware and Knox and stuff. TouchWiz free!

Bootloader unlock?

Since we have root, we now need a bootloader unlock. Does anyone know if there is a bootloader unlock coming? I hear that with the domestic carrier versions of this phone, you cannot even access fastboot. Is a bootloader unlock even possible?
I'm looking for a bump and everyone wants unlock. tf.

I don't see the point in having a question section in this forum when people are just going to tell you to go research it.
By the way, I did and I couldn't find anything. So, I thought I'd ask if anyone knew anything about it.

you never once asked. a bump'd recovery is a recovery that you can just flash without doing any extra stuff. can flash to and from stock to twrp vice versa with the press of a button.

Marshmellow exploits

When marshmellow comes out will anyone from here be working on an exploit for root? Is it just down to the locked boot loader or with a whole new OS is it possible for a new exploit to arise.
I'm not really sure if there will be ANY more development for this device.
All we can do is wait and see.
The only way I can see an exploit is if the one that was found for the AT&T galaxy s6 is made to work for ours.
i thought we were supposed to get marshmallow by now or today at least.

if you had the device from the get go you would have been able to take advantage of the exploit/root and development..

Since marshmellow is a full reboot of the os I think there could be a new exploit

I just really hope that work does get done. I don't want to find out that my less than a year old phone, that I got last August, is already getting kicked to the side of the road, and then driven over because development of root was harder than for other phones.

My only real concern is because of the boot loader lock down by Verizon is just going to shut down all development. There has to be a way to unlock the boot loader or there has to be an exploit found for us to get a root.

bootloaders have always been locked by samsung but vzw prevents us from unlocking it.. regardless its been this way for a while even on the s4 and prior.. nothing new.. MM doesnt really have much to do with it.. doesnt change the fact some bright person still needs to find an exploit to even root as always and i no longer expect bl unlocks on Sammy devices with Verizon
Sent from my SM-G925V using XDA-Developers mobile app
The only problem with MM is that a patched kernel is required for root or the device won't boot, trusted boot. So without an unlocked bootloader, no modified kernel will pass through this device. Unless an exploiter triumphs a new level.

sounds about right.. isnt this why chainfire now uses systemless root?
Sent from my SM-G925V using XDA-Developers mobile app
Well I think systemless root started as being a way to avoid problems with OTA updates failing because of modified system partition and also keeping Android pay working, then progressed to see it seems to me the most streamlined method. But as far as root goes he's made the installer patch the boot.img, disable forced encryption, and install in systemless mode. I went ahead and took the update because I'm fairly confident no one will feel like attempting a bootloader exploit for the S6. I just do all my tinkering on my 6p.
