I have a galaxy s6 carrier is sprint and the model is SM-GP920P I want to root it. I've tried kingroot and kingoroot none have a root for my model. I was wondering if anyone can tell me the safest and easiest way to root my phone maybe suggest some custom ROMS for it that work well.

Odin. Flash a custom root kernel.

Hi, I'm new to rooting and was directed here after successfully completing the CF auto-root method on my Sprint GS3.
I've noticed that I keep reading that the CF auto-root method is "intended for those who plan to use stock touchwiz, but just want root access for apps." My question is: is there something about this method that will not allow me to flash a custom ROM if I wanted to? I was interested in trying out Cyanogenmod but I don't want to brick my phone... Would I be able to do this with my current root?
Thanks for your help!
No. It will just give you root access. Use the unified root toolkit under the development sticky to root and flash recoveries and roms. It is easy to use, just follow the directions.
Hello All,
I recently flashed KitKat 4.4.2 successfully but now I need to re-root. I see dodgy posts about rooting certain ways. Can someone please point me to the right direction in the easiest and safest way to root on KitKat? Thanks!

You can use CF Auto Root to re-root the phone. The only problem is this method will trip the Knox warranty void counter which can't be reset at this time. You flash it through odin and after it roots, you need to disable Knox. To do that, download (or update) SuperSU and when you run it for the first time, it will give you an option to disable Knox for the root to fully work. Finally, you can install the custom recovery. While this is optional, this is strongly recommended. You can use CWM or TWRP by downloading from either ROM Manager or Goo Manager depending on what recovery you want. After doing that, you should have a fully working root

You can also flash the SuperSU zip after using Odin to flash a custom recovery (I recommend philz)

I currently just got the sprint samsung galaxy tab 3. When I activated it, it updated to 4.4 kitkat . I cant seem to find the root method for 4.4, can anyone help, I just flashed the old method and it obviously isnt working.
I am also having this issue. I just bought the tablet (SM-T217S) and updated to 4.4.2. I flashed TWRP with Odin and then flashed armeabi universal root through TWRP as per these instructions. I see SuperSU in my apps but it crashes on start. Apps that require root don't work also.
I need root so I am willing to downgrade Android for it but I would love to have root on the stock 4.4.2.
EDIT: Found the solution. Follow the instructions found here (same as above), then flash the SuperSU update attached here with TWRP.

So I am having an issue locating a root method for my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6 MM (6.0.1) Running version PD3. I have seen @koop1955 's method but I am having an issue. His tut. has a link to a TWRP file for zeroflte rather than zerofltespr. I have not seen a updated kernal to auto root on other threads either. I was looking into using CF Auto Root and was looking at it but i'm afraid to flash it via odin because the build ID is for PB6 rather than PD3. In about device my device shows up as a G920P.02. I need help either finding a root method that works and the appropriate TWRP file to flash (I think it is this one) or someone to clarify any of the methods I have stated above if they are safe and what files should be used.
