Now we have US Tmobile T889. Where and how we can root this phone ?
In it's own forum once someone discovers the root and creates the forums.
Patients, it JSUT came out.
Also, I got the white and iPhone owners are jealous. They keep doing side-by-side comparison.

HAHA. I was going to ask the same question.
I didn't realize how big this phone was until I held it in my hands (coming for G-Nex), but the thing that caught me off guard was the sheer speed. This phone is freaking FAST. Had it for couple of hours and I love it!!!!
Now waiting for Root.

did he try using CWM to install it? that's the best way to go about it. since CWM should universally work.

why? both phones have the EXACT same chipset. i'm pretty sure you can flash n7100 stock firmware on t-mobiles and it would work. the reason why previous phones were not inter-flashable was because of the differetn chipset used. both n7100 and t889 use the SAME exynos chip. this should be fun. I'm ging to buy an AT&T and flash the N7100 to get rid of the bloat.
thanks it worked like a charm

I believe you need root to install/use recovery.
Trying to root with the wrong procedure can (and did ) brick a phone. After root, flashing ROMs cannot brick a phone IF you ONLY flash from Recovery. If it doesn't work or even boot up - flash something else or restore backup.

Yes, it would be nice if a tmobile user would confirm the method they used. Want to root so I can get some titanium backups restored.
I can verify that root works with the toolkit on TMOUS SGH-T889. Selecting option 2, then option 4 [works on any build]. 5 minutes later, root and CWM.

Would be nice to know if the root method is destructive as well (wipes user data)

Confirming toolkit method is non-destructive.

they are probably different radios. just because they are the same chipset doesn't mean things will work properly. if they have different radios. which they should. flashing the international will mess up your radio. (baseband, modem, etc)
anyone else get the prompt to update the software? are you going to update?
Got it and did it 2 days ago
Same and same
probably too early to know, does anyone know if this update will affect root? coming from htc, i remember updates were frowned upon as they can make rooting more difficult.

below is the link I used. The battery drain is bad but manageable. I think it puts the wrong recovery on the phone, but it does root the phone. I was able to use titanium again :highfive:

Hello.. I have a question for you..
If this Gentleman had used the proceedure listed for the 7X, to use TWRP & DD Commands to backup all partitions.. could he have recovered his 7X... using his backed up image ? Assuming of course, he still had access to TWRP...

Probably.... But I assumed that the erecovery just worked... like it did on my honor 6x...
Unfortunately, they still haven't put that system in place for this model (l24)

I would like to install twrp and install magisk to the stock rom, I would like to keep secure folder. Would the process below work? Or is there a better way? Would anyone reccomend a custom rom.
Power off phone. Download mode. Odin
Flash with twrp-3.2.3-0-starlte.img.tar
Reboot into twrp, wipe- format, install no-verity-opt-encrypt-samsung-1.0.zip
Install magisk
Reboot
Dude once your phone is rooted you will longer have secure folder cause your device status in settings will be modified cause the flash counter was triggered
