Is root possible on Verizon Note 4? - Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Or even just custom recovery?
Google searches result in both yes and no answers i dont know what info to trust
SM-N910V on 5.0.1
I've been out of the phone modding scene for a whille
Thanks to anyone who can give me the correct answer. Dont want to download these files only to brick my only phone

Check out the 'New Note 4 owner' thread above yours. Nothing definitive yet, but it's kind of a lead. Once you click the link, search for 'Verizon' and it'll show our phone, the download links, and the version of Android you need to be on. I haven't tried it yet, but want to. Someone in that thread said someone about the zip file saying Europe in the name, but 'Verizon(USA)' in the description on the first page that loads.

Yep, sad but true. That little unfortunate fact was pointed out in the thread I directed to by another in a not-so-polite way. I didn't even think about checking the date in the post until it was pointed out. Good thing I didn't bother trying it, yet.

Help! How to install Android on my Touch Pro 2?

== MOD EDIT ==
please check stickY
== END EDIT ==
Hi there,
First of all! Great forum! You guys have build a great community and I like it. But I hope you can help me with this. i know there are a lot of threads about this, but because all the different type of phones/android versions ect... I don't know what to do...
My question, how can I get Adroid running on my HTC Touch Pro 2 (Rhodium). I have the standart version, so not a branded one.
I've tried to install it but android won't launch. Maby one of you could create a mini tutorial or a noob tutorial, because I think there are more people like me (with less knowedge of phone tech) who want to run android on their phones. I hope you could help me!
Thanks!
Kind Regards,
Sami

Haret is part of the android program. (haret.exe)
You can either use a file explorer to navigate to storage card/android/haret
or with the .cab installs (anything after 2/22) you will get an icon in your start menu.

Hi Thanks I've used that thread but used the wrong cab. Didn't know that rhod100 is the standart version
Thank you! It works now, but is it a known problem that you cant fill in the correct code (PIN code for your SIM?).
And second I can't charge my battery with the usb cable is this also a known problem?
Thanks

I have Android installed on my phone and it works fine except one MAJOR thing. I messed up the touch screen calibration and now I can't use the touch screen in android and I cant figure out how to recal the touch screen in android.
Got it. i just deleted the ts calibration file from the android project folder and started android again.

Ok man maybe you can help me out with the problem im having. I go to file explorer and i launch Haret.exe and it immediately takes me to the linux booting page with the penguin at top. But it soon stops saying "Cant access tty. Job control turned off. And it doesnt move from there. What am i doing wrong?
delete all the contents from the .cab file you downloaded, make sure your memory card has wiped any remaining files from the original download, re-install and make sure you are downloading the correct .cab file for your handset, install to memory card and try again.
Yo Ihwparis chill out. This is a forum for information trading and gathering. Everyone was a noob at one time or another including you and asked questions that have been asked a million times already. Stop treating people like idiots. Help them or stop reading the thread. Someone else will help them out. It's not that serious. I can tell you one problem here that I encountered was a thread would be started and trail off into someting completely different never answering the first question. After reading pages upoon pages you get nothing. Some people like myself have real lives and real jobs and dont have time to sit here and read every post. If you take it so serious maybe you should sticky an informative how to guide and maybe that will stop people from bothering you so much.

I was actually on XDA for about 6 months, reading, before I finally decided to even MAKE an account, because I didn't want to be "That Noob". It was about another 6 months to a year before I posted anything at all. As you said yourself, most questions have already been asked a million times. This means that it is only a matter of reading, before you find someone that has asked the same question. In most cases once you find the question, and read a little further it leads you to the answer. He was smart enough to post in the correct sub-forum, which means he must have read through the forums a bit anyways. It wouldn't have taken much more work to read the top 3 sticky threads in that same sub-forum, and find the answer to the question.
I can get the whole thing to load however I cannot ever get the start screen (touch the androind to start) to ever let me touch it. The only thing that works is the keyboard input. Any suggestions?

Mobile PDA version (archive) not working anymore

Dear Admins
The links to the archive does not work.
Its by far the best way to keep up on threads as it is possible to see threads listed by the date they are startet... Never miss anything
A typical link is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/f-260 /DEV/HACKING section...
Could someone please get it back.

Martinhdk, thanks for reporting it. We did have an issue with this earlier and it has been fixed since.

Forum redirecting via anchor

Have seen this on other type forums, but haven't figured out yet, how does it work here.
Redirecting to some part of text in one post can be done via anchoring. At least it was so on SMF forum.
There I used [iurl=#sometext][/iurl] for the link and [anchor=sometext][/anchor] for the place, where it has to redirect to.
Now, this is not SMF and I haven't found a working way for this. HTML and PHP codes, which I also have tried, do not work. If I try [ HTML] and [ PHP], then these comes in the boxes.
This is, where is the link
HTML:
Text to be shown
and this is, where it should direct to
HTML:
<A NAME="anchor">Text to be shown</A>
You get the point, right?
Is here a way to get it working also? I have a tutorial, which is already quite long, but not complete yet. It would be easier for readers to just click the part of the tutorial they want instead of scrolling through bunch of text.

This isn't currently available at XDA, but one way you can do it is to break your guide/tutorial into sections, and put each into a separate post, and hotlink to the post directly.
You can get the permalink from the post number at the top right (copy the target URL)

Please help me update my Verizon Note 4 by any means necessary. I can send $10 paypal

Hello, I am in a unique situation. I have a Verizon Galaxy Note 4 version N910VVRU1ANI1. I live internationally and I use the phone strictly for wifi. I have a Gear VR but cannot use it because I can't update. The update needs to be connected to Verizon LTE networks to update. I need to update this phone through any means necessary.I have tried using Kies and Verizon Upgrade assistant but it always says that the phone software is up to date. I think the method I will have to use is to flash it myself. Someone said this was possible but I do not know how to do it or where to download the update online. I am willing to send $10 paypal to any person who can show me how to update this phone or point me in the right direction to update it. I will also name my first child after you.
I am getting desperate. Thank you for any help you might give me. Let me know if you have any questions.
P.S.
A few more additional questions I would appreciate answered if anybody knows:
1) What is the best place to post this question? I also posted this on reddit.
2) What is the exact name of the update? So I can maybe search the internet for the download
3) Is there any hope for me to play Gear VR?
EDIT: Somebody on reddit helped me. The only question I still have is does anybody know when the update will be available for me to download and flash to my device? Thanks

Just keep your eyes peeled for the Odin files that people post on here. Once the updated version comes out, you can just flash your phone with it.
Hey man easiest way to update is to use Kies3. When I had Galaxy S4 sometimeago about 1.5 yrs ago.
I gave it as a gift to someone in Europe - Poland.
He couldn't update the S4 so I simply told him to download Kies3 and it will find the Verizon Update.
it works just fine so go ahead download it and if you have update take care of it
I did read you used kies already but make sure it's not in debugging mode as well .
If it's Kies3 it should work just fine..

xda article leads to virus?

Hello I just checked some one click root apps from here https://www.xda-developers.com/best-one-click-root-2018/
but the Root Master page that is linked, while it seems legit and all it downloaded an app that is in Chinese or something that looked different than the screenshots. Something that I noticed later.
I tried to use it but the chinese didn't helped match.
Now I'm a bit scared that maybe this app did something malicious to my phone because it wanted permission to write in SD.
Am I just paranoid? Can anyone confirm about this app?
The link is in the original XDA link above.

I don't use the Root Master myself and I had went to check out the article you referenced.
I selected the Root Master website and it looked like I was taken to the appropriate website that was all in English for myself.
I them selected the download link from step 1 on the instructions and it downloaded the app.
I then took a quick look into the apk file and did not notice anything out of the ordinary myself.
I'm not stating that you didn't experience what you had expressed but, I'm just providing you with what I had found.
To hopefully help you out, here's the links I was taken to so you can see/compare with what you had experienced.
This is the Root Master Link...
https://rootmaster.co/
... this is the apk download link from Step 1 in the Root Master guide.
https://rootmaster.co/download/com.rootmaster.apk
I hope that this helps you out and I can only assume that you may have accidentally hit an ad or something.
I do wish you the best of luck!

I DO NOT provide support via PM unless asked/requested by myself. PLEASE keep it in the threads where everyone can share.
I get a file called "com.rootmaster.apk." Seems about right. Must have been an ad or popup you got?

I go to select a link and, out of nowhere, an ad sneaks in and I just start over again.
Looks like "The Case of the Redirected Redirect" has been solved... LMAO!

I DO NOT provide support via PM unless asked/requested by myself. PLEASE keep it in the threads where everyone can share.
Everything seems legit till the time I run the apk, the page seems fine, the download seems to have to name that the download link says, but the reported apk size is 4MB and the downloaded one is around 2,5MB.
The problem is inside, the app have some short of cartoon characters and everything is in Chinese.
I will check back today if indeed I was redirected to some shady download with the same name.
I run a check with AVG after that incident but didn't found anything.
