[Q] Rooting G800F with firmware G800FXXU1AOE3 - Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
How can I root the G800F with the new firmware(G800FXXU1AOE3)?
Thanks in advance.

You cant root the AOE3, you have to go back to ANL1, if you want root. The Chainfire root file didnt work with AOE3.

Sure it works . I had AOE3 rusian rom rooted with CF .
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/47429/G800FXXU1AOE3_G800FSER1AOE3_SER/

You're right, are read today in german forum a user sucessfully root AOE3 with Chainfire.... and a other user not. I don't no......
Gesendet von meinem SM-G800F mit Tapatalk

Well , I didn't have any info at that moment that is not possible to root AOE3 . I simply downloaded that rom , being the first I found with AOE3 and I rooted it . It worked . Don't know about other roms with AOE3 .

Ok I did a self test today, with the open german G800FXXU1AOE3_G800FDBT1AOC1_G800FXXU1AOE3, No issues with Chainfire´s CF-Auto-Root :good:

Just as a side note, the reason the Chainfire root packages are labelled by ROM is because they replace the recovery, then after rooting replace it with a stock one. The stock one contained is the recovery from the respective ROM. If you're not running a custom recovery, it is highly recommended you extract the recovery image from the odin flashable and reflash it yourself.

Here is a how to (Tool), to convert your extracted recovery.img file to a odin flashable recovery.tar.md5

Hello
G800FXXU1AOE3
Chainfire Auto Root WORKS
BUT. You must follow these steps.
1. Install TWRP recovery

http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5-mini/orig-development/recovery-twrp-2-8-t2922938
Reboot, check recovery installed ok.
2. Install Chainfire Auto Root
Reboot
3. Go to play store, install "supersu" & run
4. supersu will prompt "disable knox", click yes and reboot
check root should be working now

About step 2, will I install it using the usual ODIN method?

I just used WugFresh toolkit, and pressed the "root" button.
Great success!
I used Nexus 4 CF-Auto-Root by Chainfire since I have no recovery. After that I install TWRP.

rooted superSU v1.51 and CWM 6.0.4.3 method nexus 4 running 4.4
flashed cwm touch 6.0.4.3 and rooted this morning.. flash the cwm 6.0.4.3 via cmd prompt in windows using adb and then restart phone into android. move the newest superSU v1.51 on the root of storage. install zip via cwm.. bam. rooted!
Works for me too, with cwm touch 6.0.2.3.
I'm not sure, but I think getting root is only possible if the bootloader is unlocked. Maybe that's why it doesn't work for some people.
Yeah the boot loader HAS to be unlocked or su is denied

Updated to cwm touch 6.0.4.3
Works fine with KitKat 4.4.2

Root problem

So I tried to root my Galaxy S Advance using Odin. Everything went well until the reboot part. It's been stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S Advance logo screen for a while. What can I do ?
Thanks !
Flash the firmware again! Upgrade to jelly bean, if on gb, and use shaan's method to root.

That root method with Odin is for Android 2.3. You tried it on 4.1.2? If yes, then download your JB firmware again and install it with Odin (like you did with that root). And use this for root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087424

Yes, it will work. That zip is signed, and it can be installed with stock recovery without root.

Guys, I've encountered another problem and I thought it wasn't necessary to open another thread. So..I managed to root my phone and I would like to install a custom ROM but I have problems with Clockwork mode. I found a thread about temporary CMW for JB and I tried it but it doesn't seem to work. I installed it but when I want to navigate through it's menus (for example going to the "install zip from sd card" menu) it restarts. Even when I try to reboot my phone ("reboot system now") it doesn't work. CWM just restarts. Any thoughts ?

Install CoCore with Universal kernel flash, and use permanent cwm. You need to unzip it, and use kernel.bin.md5 and you must have some root explorer installed.

Is there any way to do this without changing the kernel ? I'm worried about bricking my phone

No, you cannot change kernel without rooting your phone.
And rooting has a lot less risk of bricking phone.

Rooted Device

Hey guys i rooted my phone using the vroot option, everything went smoothly and my device gained root, The problem is how do i change from the Chinese supersu to normal supersu?
I've found guides on youtube to change it over but when i did the options my root was removed instead of changing over to normal supersu,
I have rooted my device before using flashtool by changing the kernel to an older 1 and then using doomlords method, but this time my kernel wouldn't change in my phone settings as it was saying i was still on the one i had, hence why i had to use a different method
I'm no n00b to flashing devices as I've had previous experience with other android devices,
Some help please, much appreciated
U have cwm recovery then flash supersu.zip from the supersu site. Or when not open the zip and test to install the apk over it.

I did this also but whit out these instructions... i went to hit yes when rebootting... The phosne is rooted yes, but i can't moun't back up..or flash anything else... does new reboot help???
Okay.. i did everything.. i re-flashed supersu, booted, re-booted and said no to rootfix.. Usb debugging on , and supersu apk setting checked and there is head user allowed..
I tried to make back up again but it did not work.
CWM starts to make back up but on the end it said can´t mount it... if i check my SD card there is back up folder and i think that there is also back up file (size1,95G).
I tried to restore but CWM saids something MD5 file failed...
So i´m rooted but i can´t flash new rom...
Try to reflash via Odin, and then do according to instruction.

Ok i will try that..
Can it be wrong rom what i have tried to flash... supersu flashing was ok, but when i try to flash samsung stock 4.2.2 rom , it does not work...
Do they have different bootloader.
My phone is also encrypted... does it matter?

Hi the problem is that your bootloader is locked and it wont let you go back to 4.2.2 because of that... I read on the forum safetrap take a look on it. This may help you

flash SuperSU from recovery, it should delete kingroot and install SuperSU on it and then restart, open the app and then update binary normal way.

for your Z1 use Nut's dual recovery, its the best and easy to install and there is lots of instructions available ! you can get the package from nut's website, (http://nut.xperia-files.com/ click XZDualRecovery -> 2.8.20 -> take Z1-lockeddualrecovery2.8.20-RELEASE.installer.zip NOT flashable and download it...
installing SuperSU delete the one you have, you need flashable version wich can be located here https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
then just put it to your sd card and reboot to recovery, from recovery select install zip from sd card, select that supersu file you just put in there and install it, then just reboot and done.
Thank u soo much Migidid bro.....I followed the said procedure and successfully installed dual recivery and supersu, Thanks alot once again, i wanna donate..............love andorid...love sony
Just press thanks button and we're cool

i have the same problem, but after i restarted i am stuck in boot loop. please help me what should i do now?
