Some of the Sprint Note 4 roms are pre rooted. But where are the instructions for installing TWRP recovery for this phones, Thanks
Download flashify from the play store in flashify go 1 recovery image, 2 download twrp, 3 choose twrp 2.8.1.1
Don't download the one that says zip

There aren't any specific instructions for flashing TWRP recovery and CF-auto root. I think it's because most people know how to do this already. Basically since the Sprint Note 4 has an unlocked bootloader you can simply reboot into Download mode and flash these zips using Odin. Another good way to get some better instructions is to do a Google or Youtube search. Just make sure you type "Sprint Note 4 root" or "Sprint note 4 recovery" in your search query so you know you'll get results specific for your device.

Sorry for asking what on the surface would seem simple to some as an easy question one should already know. Over years I have made and released a half dozen roms on different phones. And each one had it's own little quirks for obtaining root or loading a recovery system. And BTW, thanks for not flaming me for again what would appear to be simple method everyone should aldeady know.
When I first got my new Note 4 I had the exact same concerns as you do about rooting and flashing the recovery. From what I read early on, you want to flash the CR-auto root first, then the TWRP recovery. Both using Odin on your PC. But I will give you a heads up. When you root the phone all will be fine, it's not until you flash the custom recovery and flash a stock rooted rom that you will lose the Wi-Fi calling setting and the toggle for it as well as the sprint boot animations. My stock rooted rom has this stuff fixed. Hybrid Edition is my rom focused towards people who want a stock looking rom.
I would like to take this time to ask if you would download my rom and give it a theming overhaul? That would be awesome. That's if you feel like it or even have the time.
Thank you for the additional info, this is one of those little bits of info that u can spend hours reading and still not find. Or after spending those hours the information may not sink in.
At this point i am still on the fence about rooting on this phone. After getting a hard brick on the HTC EVO LTE and having to buying one full price because i couldn't wait the repair down time. I move rather slower this days before I made the root leap. Once I do take the leap, rest assured your rom is the one I will use and theme. I HATE ANDROID GREEN!

If you decide, an even easier method, is to just Odin the latest TWRP, and flash the SuperSU zip, in via TWRP. Shouldn't take more than 20 or 30 seconds, for everything.
Where can i find the stock recovery to flash?

After you Odin TWRP, boot into TWRP, and flash the latest SuperSU zip, from Chainfire (Google it). You will then be stock, rooted-- no need for CF Autoroot.

i finally ended up rooting..
it was a little confusing because the forum said "use odin , download here" and there were 5 versions .. wasn't sure which one to use =) then in the 50 pages, like 20% of the people had problems..
in the end, i used 3.0.7 and the newest AT&T image from here...i had problems at first but that was resolved by using a USB port in the back of my computer instead of the front.
i am now rooted =)

My work is the same way. I got an Elago micro-sd card reader to do this. After you have cwm, twrp, etc, you can just download roms, take your micro card out of the device, copy your downloaded rom to the card and re-install.
There is multiple versions. But it should not be difficult to know that of you an AT&T GS3, you don't use the international version or Verizon version.
I do agree that it can be complicated compared to other devices though. But Samsung is a lot better than some companies in this regard. Also, the Nexus devices are something to keep in mind.

Samsung phones are ABSOLUTELY the easiest phones to hack. HTC is the ***** with supercid ****. All I did was use Odin flash a rooted stock image and then went into the market and downloaded GOO MANGAGER and in goo hit settings and hit flash recovery. Tooooooo easy. :thumbup:

IM new to this and im not the brightest canyon in the box .
Ive read a bunch of tutorials ,downloaded odin , then after install cwm or team with odin which I have done . Even after installing when I goto recovery its still the normal stock recovery. when reading up on cwm they says your phone needs to be rooted for it to work. yet all of the forums and tutorials I have read say you need cwm or team to be able to install the supersu.zip.to root your phone.
This oxymoron in my mind makes me want to shoot myself in the head with the proverbial bullet.

That's because c.w.m. needs root access to work properly. You need first to root your phone and then install the recovery. Try out the vroot chinese rooting toolkit, works on many devices.
I have tried vroot & kingo both says unsupported device
Man that looks like a tough phone to root but after a lot of research I found this:

Its looks promising however where I'm getting confuse is the part where all these tutorials say that you need to install the recovery first to be able to root your device. but on the other hand the recovery wont install properly unless your phone is rooted first.
To me this is turning into a real what came first the chicken or the egg .

As far as I know, installing a recovery before rooting ends up with a useless recovery. The recovery needs root access so it can work properly (e.g. installing custom roms).
To clear up a bit of confusion here you do not need root to install cwm through fastboot or Odin. That being said if you attempt to use cwm to flash a custom ROM without root it will fail as you do not have the permission to edit the system. This root method works by installing cwm through Odin without root then using cwm to flash a root patch thus giving you root permissions. It will not work on the american variant ( thank verision) but works on other variants.

After about a day of reading forum after forum I found a solution , probably wasn't the easiest method but it worked. I flashed a custom kernel then after that I was able to flash team recovery and boot the root file.
However the down side to this was I lost the ability to use wifi and screen capture. so now I have another problem to fix and like 80% of the noobs out their I didn't back up anything and to top it off this was my wife phone. ;= )
So the solution to this is two methods, either flash another custom kernel or find the stock modem for your phone, both are normally easy to come by unless you have a galaxy mega 6.3 i527m such as myself. However after 4 redbulls and a half of cup of coffee I found this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2461203&page=29
On this page the user name starmaster10 whip up a customer kernel ,modem to fix this issue.
so if you get stuck in a similar mess the key to recovery your wifi is make sure your modem baseband version match or flash a customer kernel.
The lesson to this story is happy wife happy life SO BACK YOUR PHONE BEFORE YOU START MESSING AROUND.
Thanks for everyone help
If you flashed a custom kernel then you bootloader must have been unlocked so you could have just adb pushed the su binary

yeah I had a feeling their was a simpler to do it. However I learnt how to trouble shoot some problems I may be able to help some other poor smuck with
lol well said
For myself it was knowing a little enough to cause damage
I am relatively new to rooting and bought a used sprint note 4 with 5.1.1 cog5 update already installed, and have been waiting around for one of the universal root programs like oneclickroot to drop a root for it, but it never happens. I heard the new security in 5.1.1 is making it impossible? Is there any work arounds? I have seen a couple homebrews show up that seem questionable and limited. Anyone who is knowledgeable is welcome, but please no "newb just read" comments. Those are rarely helpful.
Funny, after owning this phone for about a year I decided to root yesterday being 100% stock and on OG5. First flash TWRP using ODIN, then install beastmode via TWRP to begin. TWRP will ask after to install superSU, install it. So far I'm using xposed and wish I had done this sooner! Sorry for the lack of details but I'm on mobile right now.

Hi all,
I have a zenfone 2 that I have just rooted....so now what?
Basically I wanted to optimise my phone so I am able to disable annoying notifications which are greyed out (although since rooting and checking this it still greyed out) I want to remove bloatware and I would actually like to customise my own android system, starting from a 'vanilla' base where I can build it up myself.
I have also read that I need to install a android recovery programme on asap after rooting.
So sorry about this but I really do need 'stupid' instructions as using hi tech words will just baffle me. lol
I have played around with computers in the past and learned about them so this is the phone stage now!
Thanks in advance and for your patience with this newbie!

Hi Kerry,
First thing you should now do after rooting your device would be flashing a custom recovery that is specific to your device (make sure your devices boot loader is unlocked first). This will allow you to make a backup of everything just in case anything were to go wrong, flash custom ROMs and useful zips. You can pick your favorite custom recovery such as Team Win Recovery Projects custom recovery (TWRP), Clock Work Mods custom recovery (CWM) or Philz Touch recovery based off of CWM although personally I would recommended twrp.
There are multiple ways to do this: Using the TWRP/CWM recovery installer from the play store or the more complicated way of flashing it from your computer. If you were to choose to install TWRP from their app on the play store (grant it root permission) you can select your device from the supported device section within the app, pick the latest recovery, hit the install button and let the app work its magic. If all works correctly you can now reboot to recovery and you will see TWRP is installed. Now you should create a backup to be on the safe side and you're good to go!
To best optimize your device I would recommend installing a custom ROM (look up custom ROMs for the Zenfone 2) and install the zip through recovery. (make sure to pick the right ROM for your device and version otherwise you may soft brick your smartphone) Now with a custom ROM you can better optimize your device and fully customize it to your liking. Make sure to look up custom ROM installation instructions for your device for better detail.
As far as removing system apps/bloatware you can use a "root app delete" tool from the play store but be careful what you remove as some applications are required!
Make sure to take your time and be careful when attempting any of these things and be careful what you modify! Just remember that no question is a stupid question as we all have to start somewhere!
Hope I was able to help you even if it was just a little, good look and have fun!
Rooted Droid Thanks you so much!!! First of all thanks for being so patient with me and secondly thanks for the useful (and easy to read) information.
I will go and install a back up on my phone from the ones you have suggested.
Hopefully you will be around over the next few days if I have more questions. Not planning on doing this all at once but rather taking the time and doing it right.
Thanks so much again!! :good::good::good:

Not a problem! I'm always happy to spread some knowledge and appreciate when people do the same to me! I also went ahead and checked the TWRP app and the Zenfone 2 is supported so it looks like your good to go. And yes absolutely, there's no rush so take all the time you may need and everything will go smoothly! I'm always around and will try my best to answer questions.

Check this site out:
http://myzen.asus.com/2015/10/13/official-bootloader-unlock-for-zenfone-2-is-now-available/
All devices have a different method for unlocking bootloader (some don't even have locked bootloaders) but this is an official bootloader unlocking method for the Zenfone 2 from Asus itself. I suggest following its directions and you should be able to unlock it this way.
Ok I followed the link but now I am confused. I have version ww_2.20.40.63_201......
Apparently I need a later version. What started off with just adding an APP means me doing other things before I even get to that point (hence the confusion! lol)
I never updated the phone via OTA as I was told it would invalidate my warranty and also I have killed a phone before using that so can you walk me through please...if you have the time....or could I just check if I have it unlocked already??
I haven't even gotten to the part where I create a backup...tee hee

Hi sorry for the late reply, I'm in Canada so it was 2am when I was last talking to you so I went to bed haha. Anyway as far as unlocking the Zenfone 2's bootloader I wouldn't have experience unfortunately as I'm using a Nexus 5. The easiest way to go about this now would be to go to your device specific forum and find a way to unlock it there.
The following way to unlock the bootloader requires you have ADB installed on your PC. This is a guide for installation on Windows :
http://www.android.gs/install-android-sdk-adb-windows/
And here is a thread specific to unlocking the Zenfone 2 using adb:
http://www.xda-developers.com/asus-zenfone-2-bootloader-unlocked-without-asus/
BTW as you mentioned "updating may invalidate your warranty" things like rooting, installing a custom OS, unlocking the bootloader, installing a custom recovery and other things like that all (in most cases) void your warranty.
Sorry I can't personally help with the bootloader as I've not personally unlocked it on a Zenfone. Still feel free to ask any questions if you need to. Good luck!
Broken
This method does not work due to complications from SELinux and dm-verity. Sorry guys, looks like the Note 4 can't be rooted at this time :/
Feeling generous? PM me an Amazon gift card!
DISCLAIMER:
Code:
Your warranty is now void. I nor XDA is responsible for the effects this may have on your device or your life, whether that be bricking, loss of data, combustion, nuclear war, or the election of businessmen as President (wait what).
Remember, its not root that puts your device in danger, its how you use it.
If you don't know what a locked bootloader is, or think that Chainfire is a new video game, you shouldn't be here, go read a little about Android and the Galaxy Note 4 before continuing
So let's begin:
What You'll Need:
This *experimental* firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767141025
Kingroot, SuperSume, and FlashFire, all available from this zip: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298935732
This modified "from-noship" pre-rooted OC6: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862707318
What To Do:
Step 1: Goin' Wayy Down
Use ODIN to flash the experimental firmware.
MASTER CAUTION: This will wipe ALL data on the device!! Backup your stuff before proceeding. I nor XDA is responsible for loss of your memes!
Simply flash the .TAR.MD5 file in the zip using the AP slot in ODIN, and then wait for the phone to boot (which is literally all of 10 seconds).
Step 2: Our Old Friend
After the OS is installed, go to the file manager and install Flashfire, Kingroot, and SuperSume
Open Kingroot and use it to root, the in-app instructions will guide you through.
After you've gotten root with KingRoot, open SuperSume, grant it root, and press the big blue button, let it do its thing.
When its done, SuperSU will open and ask you to update the binaries, hit continue, then hit "normal". When its done hit "OK", don't reboot (you don't need to).
At this point you've got root! Now, let's get back to the present!
Step 3: Back to the Future!
Open FlashFire, grant it root access, and flash the modified OC6 with these settings:
Mount /system read/write
A wipe isn't required, but it is recommended (if you do wipe, make sure to put that card B E F O R E the flash zip/ota card!)
Hit "flash", let it flash, reboot, and load.
Disclaimer: I have not personally tested this firmware before release, but it should work. However, I make no guarantees!
Guess what? You're done!
I worked to get your phone rooted, I hope now you guys can get some ROMs going!

Also I'm tempted to try but it's a definite wait for my because I've had this phone since it came out an I was just at AT&T last night to trade an upgrade. I'm going back next week an upgrading to iPhone 7+ 128gb because there is no Notes devices and I really don't want Galaxy S7 when in a month or 2 the S8 is coming.

The root is universal. No matter what firmware you are on, you still have to flash the experimental firmware with ODIN. That's what's so beautiful about it
Also, please try not to quote the entire OP, it clutters up the thread

Yea I agree with you but don't have $400 to put down on a phone. A buddy of mine has OnePlus3 got it on release. But personally I don't have to money to buy a phone every couple months. I normally wait like every 2 an half years. iPhone 7 isn't my favorite choice but I do miss iMessage and iPhone seems there always a new jailbreak coming out might have to wait 6 months but I've waited over 2 years for a root on this phone.
Thanks for releasing this root! I'll b checking the forums an see how this is going!

No, we can't do that because the locked bootloader won't allow a systemless root, which would be necessary for rooting marshmallow. We can, however, make UNrooted marshmallow ROMs.

We can install custom TouchWiz ROMs, but you would need to install the pre-rooted OC6 in the OP first (if you want to use 5.0). Unfortunately we still can't get AOSP ROMs working because that would need a new Kernel and the locked bootloader doesn't allow it.
Post #2 has been updated with ODIN recovery files.
Nice work!
I seem to be a little lost here, but can we use/make rooted MM ROMs after doing the steps in OP?

I seem to be a little lost here, but can we use/make rooted MM ROMs after doing the steps in OP?

No we can't. No rooted MM ROMs, but you can make rooted LP ROMs

Feel free to take a look at the Galaxy s5 forums, we're in the same boat
Also I may have made a mistake in the OP. I'd like you guys to hold off on trying it until I fix it. Thanks!
