Isn't there a way to root this device yet?

Isn't there a way to root any version of this device yet? I can live without cyanogenmod or many custom roms but without root would be really tough.
There is root and cyanogenmod 12 for g800f and g800h.

I know about cyanogenmod but I'm wondering about root. Where are the posts about root? Can you post them here? I looked in the development and original development (as well as the general forum) and didn't see anything.
I used this method to root my SM-G800F:

It worked very well

Thanks for sharing !
But i have one small question: do you need to unlock the bootloader in order for this to work ? Because they always say that in rooting tutorials.

Just unlock bootloader in Motorola's devices, in Samsung's devices no need it but your knox counter will trigger like unlock bootloader (warranty is void)

Yours is still a G800F phone. There shouldn't be any problem using the method suggested.

Wow thank you for the swift response! I'm sure you are correct, but my only concern is the bottom of the post containing the tutorial states its ONLY for a build No. different from mine. Again any further advice would be a great help! Thanks

I hadn't notice that. I guess you can ask in some chainfire specific forum or wait for someone that has rooted successfully with a slightly different phone model number.

I performed a software update when I got the phone a few weeks ago - does this change the build No? Kind of annoying if so, haha - as probably could have rooted with the method mentioned otherwise!
Anyway, thanks a lot for the advice I'll check in a Chainfire forum.
Cheers

Have rooted my phone now! :good: Found the info on another thread - it would appear that the root file I used (CF-Auto-Root-kminilte-kminiltexx-smg800f.tar.md5) is identical to the one mentioned in this thread - so in this case build No doesnt seem to matter. Cheers

Flash back to stock rom by using graffixNYC 5.0 rom, then proceed to update via OTA.

Need help with terrible battery life. No root.

Hello everyone!
Firstly I apologise for starting another thread. But I have tried everything such as disabling most Samsung apps, keep brightness low and alot of other solutions people have suggested in other threads.
After upgrading to lollipop this the battery has become terrible. Attached is the screenshot. It's an unlocked note 5.
I don't want to root it so any help would be greatly appreciated. Is there a way to go back to lollipop without rooting? ( I'd prefer to avoid this route if i could)
Thank u in advance!

Make sure you search for the correct country you're in. A quick search shows

All you need to do is find the original firmware for Lollipop because you're on Marshmallow 6.0.1 now and Lollipop is 5.1.1
