This guide help you to
install the Samsung Lollipop TouchWiz and get the root permissions
on Galaxy S4 GT-I9506​
Do it on your own responsibility! and keep in mind that you will lose your warranty!​
Before you proceed, make sure:
1) You have installed your Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9506 USB drivers on your PC (the easiest way is to install Kies)
2) Your S4 should have 70-80% charge remaining.
3) Backup all your important data like Call logs, SMS and other data stored in phone memory in case if anything goes wrong, your data is not hurt
4) Make sure that Kies software is not running and disable your antivirus
Download the requirements:
Click on each one for download
-Odin software
-Recovery TWRP "flashable"
-SuperSu "flashable"
-Samsung Lollipop Firmware from SAMMOBILE (only if you have KitKat installed)
WARNING! I FOUND PROBLEMS WITH SOME SAMMOBILE FIRMWARE'S READ BELOW
The Czech Republic - ETL firmware (I9506XXUDOA6_I9506OXXDOA1), has WiFi broken
The Czech Republic (Vodafone) - VDC firmware (I9506XXUDOA6_I9506VFGDOA4), has wrong "Hidden" partition size
If you meet this problems you can download this official firmware from samsung updates site:
Greece - EUR firmware (I9506XXUDOAA_I9506EURDOB1)
BUILD DATE: 30.01.2015
How to install the firmware and root
If you already have the Lollipop firmware installed: Skip to the Step 8
NOTE: I racommend you to do the wipe of cache, dalvik cache, system, data partitions before proceeding,
this to prevent any problems with the apps (through recovery)
Step 1
Unzip the downloaded firmware, you will get a tar.md5 file.
Step 2
Turn OFF you mobile and go to Download Mode by pressing and holding the Power + Volume Down + Home Buttons.
together for few seconds followed by Power button then proceed with volume up.
Step 3
Now open ODIN on your PC and connect your Galaxy S4 to your computer.
Once your phone is successfully connected to your PC, the ID:COM box on ODIN will turn blue (or yellow) and will show the COM port number.
Step 4
Click on PDA (or AP) in Odin and choose the file ".tar.md5"
Step 5
Check "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" options and make sure that "Re-Partition" is unchecked
Step 6
Click on Start button in ODIN window to start the flashing process. The process will take few minutes to complete.
Step 7
When the installation is completed, you read a "Reset " then a "Pass". your phone will restart (first boot will take a longer time so don't panic)
> Step 8
now you have to do again all steps from Step 2, for flash the TWRP recovery needed for apply the ROOT,
the only difference is when you arrive on Step 4 you must have to choose the TWRP Recovery ".tar.md5" downloaded file
Step 9
Turn OFF you mobile and go to Recovery Mode by pressing and holding the Power + Volume Up + Home Buttons.
Step 10
Connect the mobile with USB and copy the "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.45.zip" in the SD
Step 11
Click on the "INSTALL" button, select "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.45.zip", and swipe to flash. After this reboot
Finish! Enjoy!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​
Odin troubleshooting: If Odin accidentally gives you "fail" try the following:
- Repeat the procedure.
- Make sure that all actions of Kies are disabled from task manager.
- Make sure the antivirus is disabled
- Change usb port.
- Try another usb cable (make sure it is the original).
- Try another Odin version.
- Uninstall and re-install the USB driver.
- Try another computer.
Titanium Backup does not recognize the root:
- Install Titanium Backup version 7.0+
Titanium Backup does not recognize external SD:
- Install SDFix app for applying the missing external SD card permissions

After flash the warranty Knox is rightly marked,
that's becouse i wrote that you lose the warranty,
but this happens anyway if you perform unauthorized flash...

General Information:
CastagnaIT and my GT-I9506 devices are originally from ETL CSC... so Czech Republic firmware.
We found that the original ETL firmware has broken WiFi, and we discover that flashing the cache partition of Vodafone firmware has solved the issue... this is the reason we provide here an already fixed firmware.
Probably with newer updates it will be automatically solved, but for now this fix is working perfectly.
I dirty flashed the modified firmware file directly over my TW 4.4.2 installation, and I saw the phone has correctly get the update without any loosing of apps or datas... so my installation is exactly equivalent to a normal Sammy update.
Thanks for the attention.

German Vodafone have also broken WiFi...

The German rom seemed to work for me, no issues.

Hi,
I have a doubt... let me explain.
When you flashed with Odin, the correct procedure I think is this one.
1) After flash complete the phone must restart automatically
2) at the first boot, the recovery must be automatically activated and a flash of a cached element must appear
3) after this recovery flash, the phone reboot automatically and finally start with rom initialization
I think that for @Drady this has happened, and I think also that for @Developer.WL this has not happened.
This recovery flash is the culprit (probably) that give as result the wifi working.
I saw this, because I prepared a modded firmware with removed the recovery.img, so my Odin flash has not installed the stock recovery, leaving twrp as recovery.
After my flash, the phone was just shutdown (no reboot). Remembering that recovery flash was also done for previous KK firmware, I switched on the phone by pressing the buttons Vol-up + Power + Home, and my phone has booted into twrp and has flashed the missing cache part, than the phone auto-rebooted correctly and the system is working as it must.
My suggestion to @Developer.WL, is to reflash the firmware, taking care that at the first boot the phone must go to recovery (flash is about a couple of seconds) and after this must reboot into the rom...
Please let us know if this solve the wifi issue.
Thanks for cooperation.

AFAIK you should turn off device before enter download mode and then flash Czech version, this will let you to replace old modem with new one.

Yes, the download mode must be enabled from phone off status with buttons procedure (Vol-Down + Power + Home).

The fixed firmware is finally ready for download!

At this moment there is no way I tried root uninstall, TB and uninstall without any result.
I think we have to wait for updates

i don't fix glonass on this NEE version....

I have LineageOS 13, TWRP and I want to ROOT my i9506. As I understand, I can't ROOT it on LineageOS 13 - I have to install official ROM, ROOT it, and then install LineageOS again, yes?

Any Chance for Root On SM-N920R4?

Any Chance for Root on SM-N920R4?
I emailed Samsung for the kernel source code release and they sent me the link. If anyone can develop a root access it would be very much appreciated!!
Samsung has a link in their open source page

Check this link
i would ask upintheair for help on this one. once i get mine as well i will be requesting help as well.

i badly need root too
Totally. Sm-n920r4 is a great device though. Currently using it with a verizon sim. Wish i could get lte though, cant wait until theur lte roaming agreement takes hold

r00t
I got mine rooted.. It's not an official way, but I did manage to have root access..
Forgot to add device information screen..

I am curious to know how you managed to obtain root? Does it break things since it isn't an official way?

Wouldn't boot if it had broken hardware or ruined the flash. Depending on the recovery until an official root is out we just can't flash ROMS. I just want to get root for now!

2. Install the Samsung Drivers.
3. Unlock Flashing Capability ***IMPORTANT***
If you do not enable the following setting, you will brick your device!!!
Go to settings - About Device - Software Info - You will see "Build Number" - Tap repeatedly on build number to unlock developer options. You will now see Developer options in settings (just above about device).
Open Developer options and Enable OEM Unlock. Go ahead and enable USB Debugging as well.
4. Flash custom recovery.
TWRP has not been ported over as of yet to our model. The only option is PhilZ by arter97.
Use Odin V3.10.7 to flash the downloaded recovery.
Switch off your Note.
Get into download mode by pressing Vol Down+Power+Home until the download window pops up. Press Volume Up to continue to download mode. Connect your phone to the computer. Press the AP button in Odin and browse to the downloaded PhilZ Recovery.
MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT CHANGE ANY OPTIONS IN THE OPTION TAB! I have included a screenshot of how it looks unchanged.
Press the Start button and it will flash the recovery to your phone. After completion, Odin will automatically restart the phone. To get into recovery press Volume Up+Home+Power for a few seconds and you will get to the new recovery.
5. Flash Custom Kernel
Use the same instructions as step 3 but instead of the recovery you will now be selecting the SpaceX Kernel. Once again, do not change any settings in the options tab.
6. Now flash Beta SuperSU 2.49 from recovery.
7. MAKE AN EFS (IMEI) BACKUP.
Please take the time to thank the following people:
@dr.ketan for his original guide HERE.
@arter97 for his port of the PhilZ Touch Recovery HERE.
@mahn_IT for his SpaceX Kernel HERE.

Disregard - I was using odin 9 - went to 10 and it worked! Didnt think that would matter

Thanks guys, this worked for me as well! I was having some random reboots with the SpaceX N920P v0.1 kernel, but when I tried SpaceX N920R4 v0.1 it would hang on the US Cellular boot screen, and SpaceX N920R4 v.02 would boot but not detect the SIM card.
Last night I flashed Freeza's Beastmode Kernel for SM-N920P and so far I haven't had any reboots or stability issues. It seems to have better performance and battery life as well, but it might just be in my head.
I don't know if there are any negative side effects of using SM-N920P kernels on our SM-N920R4 phones so flash it at your own risk, but it's working great for me. I just wanted to share my experience since there doesn't seem to be a good place to find information on our devices yet.

hay guys i just got mine sm-n920r4.. i am having a hard time finding phil recovery for this model. need help please need root asap

Rooted.
everything you need to root this device is at a site but i am new and cant post linkshttp://cdn2.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Here's the steps I went through, I can tell it's a lot more steps than necessary but this is how I was able to get root + custom recovery on the latest update:
Okay guys, after a lot of hesitation I decided to attempt root and recovery, and was successful without any visual knox warnings.. There's not many clean guides here on this site so I'm posting the steps I went through.. first and foremost, enable usb debugging and OEM unlock.
For root, follow the guide here (note you'll get a sammy notification that your/you're device is rooted, turn that off. You'll also get a few odd reboots directly after odin resets your/you're phone, that's normal):
https://androidmtk.com/root-samsung-galaxy-note-5-sm-n920r4
After root you can use Skipsoft's Android Toolkit to install TWRP. *Make sure you follow the toolkits instructions closely.*
Link:*http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...lkit-skipsoft-android-toolkit-galaxy-t3399829
And for Xposed to work on our stock rom we obviously need the custom version that can be found here (ARM64 version):

Tried to Root N-920W8, Restarts during Phone Calls

Hi,
I tried to root my N-920W8 with Nobel Kernel and it keeps restarting during phone calls.
And I found a post in XDA about the SkyHigh Kernal (which has fixed the call reboot bug) for N-920W8 but it is in .zip format where I can not use ODIN.
Tried to convert the .zip into .tar and failed.
I tried to connect my phone to my PC and place the .zip file into my phone USB file as there is no external SD for Note 5.
(Not sure whether there is a particular location to place the .zip file.)
After place the .zip, tried to flash it in the download/recovery mode (volume down+power+home botton),
it said could not find sd card/failed to do so.
Tried to go to SAMMobile.com to find stock rom, can not download anything...seems like it's empty or the link is not working.
I tried to search stock rom from other sites and found nothing as well.
I saw someone posted similar threads and suggested to try arter97 root but it will have slight lag which I do not want.
Plus, the person with the problem did not confirm whether or not it fixs the problem.
I am really frustrated with a lot searching and browsing so I decide to open a new thread to ask.
Do I have to flash back to stock rom in order to root properly? Or can I just find a stable kernel and flash it with ODIN and everything will work fine?
Could you provide step-by-step instructions and links as well? I am a noob but I am not taking it for granted but it's just that I am afraid I might mess things up...
*Also, I am not sure whether the following problem relates to the one above...
When I am rebooting, it says "KERNAL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING"
Is it the same issue? Or a different one?
Thank you for taking your time to read my thread.
I will be really thankful for the solution. Thank you!

First I was with space x but I had reboots and drop calls but I root with auto root xiaolu and everything works fine in my N9208

I fully support N9208 with SkyHigh kernel. You just have to read Posts 1-3 including requirements and install instructions. ... you don't use Odin !!

I'm pretty sure your next step is to wipe all data , for your phone to boot. I had to do this when I first rooted my device (N-920w8 telus). I had followed this guide :
http://galaxynote5root.com/galaxy-n...alaxy-note-5-on-android-6-06-0-1-marshmallow/
On page 2 , steps 11 , 12 and 13.
Your phone will be stucked in a boot loop until you "format data" . Unfortunately , you will lose everything in your phone by doing this.
Once you've installed TWRP , so that you never have to "format data" again if you try other updates , i recommend "Flashfire" . This tool can install full firmware packages for updates , but without removing your recovery partition, leaving TWRP intact , which you can then use again to reflash SuperSU and the "no-verify-opt-encrypt.zip"
Good luck

stuck in FRP
got everything to work beautifully! Then I went to go to TWRP and forgot to take OEM lock off!! What can I do to get out of the FRP Lock? Kies wont except my serial number for some reason and I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO...

now rooted on Marshmallow G900H Exynos
Thank you! Works well on SM-G900H 6.0.1 Oct.1st 2016 security update on Android 6.0.1 with build G900HXXS1CPJ6

Can anyone help me please? I am unable to root my S5 900H which is on latest update 1 day ago 6.0.1 . I tried 4-5 times using ODIN but even after ODIN showing I was successful, the phone doesnt go into TWRP. i know i am doing something wrong but not sure where. Here is what i am doing.
1) Downloaded TWRP recovery (3.0.2 and even tried previous version 3.0)
2) Started ODIN 3.09 (also did on 3.12 latest)
3) Put Recovery.tar.md5 file in AP and clicked Start
4) Successful message confirmation and phone reboots itself
5) Vol Up + Home + Power button and it goes into Default Android recovery.
6) Knox meter shows 1 instead of 0
So what am i doing wrong? Could it be my USB cable? its not original, but ODIN recognizes the phone and says successful at the end.

So what am i doing wrong? Could it be my USB cable? its not original, but ODIN recognizes the phone and says successful at the end.

When you in Odin, go to Option and uncheck the "Auto Reboot", then flash the recovery... after Odin say it is Successful e to then u have to pull off the battery and put it back again and turn on the phone and go to recovery mode... this way works on mine. Hope that help.

kernel is mandatory ? i havn't install kernel just superuser and its stuck on booting i have tried data wipe per same result.

Good but....
You have to take battery out immediately after Odin pass flashing TWRP
Unless it doesn't work.
I have root . My phone is working but Im seeing Kernel is not seandroid enforcing on boot up .
And when playing online games sometimes it restart suddenly

while opening recovery : recovery is not seandroid enforcing
while powering ON device: kernel is not seandroid enforcing
What should I do?

[Recovery]TWRP for Galaxy ON7 [SM-G600FY][Unofficial]

Introduction:
Team Win Recovery Project, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It's a fully touch driven user interface , no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

Is this for 5.1.1 or 6.0.1? I tried on 6.0.1 and the phone is stuck on the first Samsung logo screen. it does not boot into the custom recovery.
EDIT
I tried on 5.1.1 too, but same result. Stuck on the first screen and does not boot into TWRP

Title says 900 - content says 600
Is this one is for Samsung On 7 ? I tried ODIN download mode - TWRP recovery image. after pull out battery and tried login with recovery mode - got boot loader image and error - Set Warranty Bit : recovery and nothing happens after that.
When I reboot, stock recovery is overwritting TWRP. Please help.
Also... include a not responsible note.. NOT is missing.
Thanks.

Yes i have checked it on ON7 G600FY running MM(6.0.1), dont try it on LP, flash one more time and make sure u have auto reboot unchecked, so that u need to enter recovery manually..

Is there a way to directly reboot in recovery mode from download mode...? When I reboot from download mode by pressing Volume UP + Volume Down + Power it starts in system boot which overwrites the twrp recovery by system default recovery.
