How to root a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (GT-I9195) running KitKat? (SOLVED) - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys! I am here today to ask if any of you have a tutorial on how to root a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (GT-I9195) whose Android System is KitKat 4.4.2.
I have googled the whole net and most of the tutorials are on Android System 4.2.2 and the ones about the 4.4.2 have a dubious origin under my opinion.
So if any of you have can give me a hand would be awesome.
Thanks.

9. Restart your phone once again. Your Galaxy S4 Mini is now rooted.
Anything you need feel free to contact me.

I found on the Internet the fies to flash and my phone is rooted now. I will have a look at the link you posted, obviously it is easier to root from an app than flashing files through odin.
Thanks.

Welcome to our little tab 3 community.
If your need to rotate recovery to fix touch orientation, have a look at THIS kernel commit. It is originally for the T210 kernel, but I used it when making recovery for the T110 since the board/cpu is the same.
Edit: then add this to init.rc
Code:
# Set touchscreen to landscape mode for recovery
write /sys/devices/virtual/sec/tsp/orientation 6
What I meant was, can I install recovery on the T111 like I would on the T110 (this guide), or is there some other procedure for it?

I really see no reason why it won't work for the T111.

Thank you very much
That worked
Now stuck at one place if you have idea as you have earlier released rom for this. When I am deodexing Phone.apk causing FC (unfortunatelu contacts closed) This was issue with contact apk but solved with different deodeing tool. still no luck for Phone.apk (Tried different smali too)
edit :
OK still issue is SecContact only, I havce flash odex and when replaced seccontact it casuing issue. Hopefully should be fix.
Edit 2:
Fixed
Hopefully will release tomorrow or day after tomorrow.

rooting your phone by any means will void your warranty, unless rooting is specifically allowed by your carrier and the manufacturer.
as long as your phone will power up, they can tell if you are rooted, weather it shows in the settings or not is irrelevant.
just depends on how bad they want to find out, weather they will actually find it.
All links for g900H are broken. haven't checked the other links.
All links dead. Hosting blog has been deleted. Please repost links.

[Q] Problems Rooting and Custom ROMS

Hi Everyone
I tried rooting my Samsung Note 10.1 2014 Edition tonight running 4.4.2 and i ended up with it in a boot loop. I managed to get it out of boot loop and booted normally. (if anyone is stuck in a bootloop let me know and i can tell you how i fixed it). I have tried a few times and it does not work. I cannot post a link as it is so just take out the spaces from this one sorry, "goo. gl/ R2WPVB". i am considering a custom rom but i dont know much about them. If anyone would like to help me out that would be great.
Thanks already

If you have a Snapdragon Note 10.1 2014 and on stock rom then use Towelroot to root the device. It doesn't seem to work on Exynos devices.

Your Model is A SM-P605 and this model (LTE) is coming with the SnapDragon so you can use the towel Root with KK or JB ROM's

Tab S 8.4 - Root

Hi Guys,
I have question with regards to rooting of Galaxy Tab S 8.4 LTE version. I am suppose to follow this link , however, I need to verify few things to make sure i will not break the device.
1. Does the link I provided is good start and I can successfully root the device?
2. What happen if my device is rooted and there's new android version (say 4.4.3), do I get the update and can install it on the device?
3. How can I unroot the device incase I need to send back the unit for warranty?
4. Does Samsung will know if the device is rooted before?
5. What is the risk involve on rooting?
6. Do i need to restore the device before I do rooting?
7. Do I loose some features on the Samsung Tab if I root the device (such as stay wake, Finger scanner, etc)? - I like some features on Samsung Tab, but the reason for me to root is to remove other appsthat samsung installed, to free up space by installing Folder Mount and move some apps to SD card, to gain more visibility/ control of the device, etc .
Pardon me if I post on the wring section of the forum or It is forbidden to post such question, but I just needed to know these things before I proceed with rooting the device. I am also looking to root my Note 4
Thanks in advance.
Lee.n
firstly.. there are Q&A and troubleshooting section here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/help where you are suppose to start this thread.
any way i'll answer your doubt.
1. yes its a good place. but just use a proper files from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/cf-auto-root-chainfire-t2881826
2. you can download the full stock firmware at sammobile.com and flash it using odin.
3. Just enter the supersu apps and click unroot in the option. that's all. or just flash the official stock firmware via odin
4,5 Yes and you loose the warranty and now knox meter will be 0x1
6. No
7. Screen Mirror might not working. others work as usual unless you remove some required files. i think folder mount wont work on 4.4.2
Thanks, edan1979 .
Based on the site you've provided ([ROOT]Official CF-Auto-Root By Chainfire.) I am wondering if my device is capable and do I get the correct CF-Auto. I am attaching a screenshot of "About Device" of y Tab S 8.4 LTE.

Thanks, edan1979. Do you have Tab S8.4LTE where you already root it? hows it performs? better than Stock ?
Additional question, the firmware from http://www.sammobile.com/ is stock or custom?
So if I rooted my device, it will not AUTO update right? which I need to download the firmware from http://www.sammobile.com/, after I flash it, do I need to re-root the device?
Thanks.

Root Blackview A5 Marshmallow

Hi guys,
recently bought this A5 at reasonable price( 50$). It goes fast as any other 4-core brand named device i have seen. But it came with much bloatware such as a search service that somehow i cant stop. I must disable it once a day and then again tsoup! it is on again...Anyway that's why my first thought was rooting the device.
Sometime ago i rooted and old samsung with just a click. But this blackview seems to be solving the circle square. No support, google says little only some russians i can not understand.
So, to end this story i need help to root this device. Flash a modded preinstalled rooted version maybe?
Thanks in advance...
Edit: Managed to root it finally. just flash supersu via twrp(3.03 custom recovery image from needrom site)...8 hours piece of cake ^-^. Thank god for the last beta version 2.79 SR3 201xxx of supersu. All the other version had me to bootloop.
Hi there, please tell me how you did it. Some links to the correct files would be great.
Kind regards, Skyfire

I flashed the recovery.img with sp flash but when I enter recovery mode, twrp doesn't show up...
Instead, the stock recovery mode boots up.
sp flash says that the flash was successfull but it doesn't work out for me...
btw I only flashed the recovery.img. I didn't flash any boot.img or anything else.
any ideas what went wrong?

That's hell of a problem...did u select the scatter file in sp tools? maybe your firmware is different version? if i remember correct there are 3 versions of blackview A5. I have the A5_C1_Blackview_SD_Q20160709. If different then u must find a twrp for your version..Sorry mate
There is a thread over at 4pda with different versions of twrp but the links are all down. Maybe if you find somebody that speaks russian ore use google translate you can get it there.
Today my new A5 arrived and of course I wanted to root it.
But I have a new Build number = A5_C1-Blackview_SD_Q20161010
Also the drivers are not working.
Does anybody ca help me out ?
thx in advance
My build = A5_C1_Blackview_VO.X_20160420
Would this be a good idea...? Or a bad idea...?
If I go into: Settings -> About phone -> Wireless update
There are no OTA updates available... But there is an option to install "Local updates". I can select the "SuperSU" zip but I get warnings about bricking the phone:
