This was already posted in another thread. A team has figured out a way to root using an expensive and inpractical hardware method. It will hopefully help get us closer to a real software solution, but like i said, this was already covered in another thread.

I have no problem with that
Can the *NEW* AT&T SGH-i257 VoLTE(HD Voice) released on 5/23/2014 be rooted?
I have seen root methods for other SGH-i257 variants, but not certain that will fly on this recent iteration.

I received mine a few days ago. It is a great device for it being a little aged spec wise. It has been a while since I have messed with a Samsung device. Reading up this knox thing seems to be a huge pain in the rear.

Yeah I played with the demo at the store I liked it alot and ordered a new one on eBay because of the size, and spec wise it is pretty decent due to the size and it supports microSD I am very happy. Yeah I miss the good ole days with Sammy when boot loaders were unlocked, but AT&T and other carriers forcing their hand

If I had a few more tools and was more up to date I would do it. Unfortunately I have always relied strongly on the skills of the members here. I know someone will be through here in a bit after the phone has a little more exposure. It looks like we probably do need a few files that are more specific to this device. 1 thing I already noticed is that some variants of this device do not have a notification light.

Seems there are ways to root the SGH-i257M but it sure would be nice to have a definite and tested root for the SGH-i257

Now can we install twrp on this phone? ?
Coming from Samsung and Sony there were always many great ROMS available for the phones.
It looks like there's already a new phone in LGs scope which will come out soon.
(And there's also the locked Bootloader we have here - which might get opened sometime?)
What do you think about the LG G4?
Will developers skip the phone and directly proceed to the newer phone?
Will we ever see so much support like for the other phones (Samsung, Sony,...)?
What are your opinions?
Once the boot loader gets opened for everybody then i think we will see Roms.

Based on how popular the G2 & G3 seemed to be (and really still are) I am sure once we gain the ability to flash ROMs they will start to flow our way. Even with the G4 Pro coming in December (allegedly) I do not think that will slow down the development for us, it will just give the Devs one more device to play with.
(We still have ROMs for both versions of the S6/S6 Edge and the Note 4/Note Edge)
Sooner or later yeah. But first people need root and ability to flash roms.

International version can already be unlocked, rooted and has twrp availible. I am quite confident that there will be developement done. But the device is quite new so let the devs some time.

It sounds to me like someone is trying to make himself feel better about not having a G4.
....As was already stated we already have Root Access, it is just a matter of waiting for it to be released to the GenPop via a safer method.

"We" don't have root yet. Yes there are a couple of devs that were able to root a phone, after bricking their first phone. While it is highly likely that there will be a root method released to the masses, there is no guarantee that everyone will get root access. I bought my G4 with the assumption that we'll get it, but also aware that we may never get it. My S4 is my daily driver until we get root access for the G4.
It should be much easier to find a safe way (for Joe Schmoe) to root, with the rooted G4 they currently have.

Please enlighten the rest of us too and show us where root is may be you read news from third party sources, but peoplespeak what they see on xda and from what I know, there is no root method yet published here, so why call him troll?

I Just got my new G4 for fathers day through sprint unfortunately, also have a LG G Flex 2 which is a POWERHOUSE. well both are monsters, but i cant wait for root and unlocked bootloader+carrier unlock, hopefully they all come soon.
also i just went from a G2 to the G Flex 2 to the G4, love them all
I have a question. I understand that root has been achieved on the G4 and that the method hasn't been released. My main question is this: when that method or other methods are released, would any of them offer a bootloader unlock along with it or would users have to rely on the LG site to do so? Right now I have the 815 version and know the bootloader is unlockable but do not have a pc to do the bootloader unlock process. Am I better off waiting for an official release here on xda that may involve a bootloader unlock?

Is there any way to enable FM chip on AT&T Note 4?
As far as I know, it doesn't have one
It does have one just not activated.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using xda premium
I believe that the kernel is theb I nly way to enable it from the unlocked bootloader that we don't have. So for now, no dice.

Has this ever changed? Sorry to dig up old thread but I have searched to no avail... i have an AT&T NOTE 4 and wonder if this changed with the unlocked bootloader and mod kernel.
Thanks!

If this is in fact verified, then this would mean you'd get the bounty and will extend the useability of our 910A for about a couple more years!

As far as I know there is only one way to root the S6 Edge+
and it's a very easy way of rooting.
It's no more difficult than rooting any other phone.
Good luck.

There are thousands of posts relating to rooting but
I am sorry to say that I cannot remember all of them.
So perhaps you can be just a little more specific when
you're asking about a particular specific post.
Have a great evening!
