rishi Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Has anyone tried to root a Galaxy S4? - If so, did it all go well - in particular, did it ruin any of the existing features? As far as my minor Google research tells: The outcome of a rooting depends pretty much on exact model, and I'm mainly interested in experiences with the GT-I9500 model.

anthonyc12 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Okay so I just tried rooting my phone using the tutorial found on internet and followed the instructions exactly and when I run Motochopper and it does it process and I get this: [*]Rooting Phone.... [+]This may take a few minutes. [-]Failure.[*]Cleaning up....[*]Exploit complete. Press enter to reboot and exit. Press any key to continue.... The phone had the stock ROM, so I'm not sure why it failed maybe T-Mobile had the phone so you can't root it, help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 T-Mobile had the phone so you can't root it, help! What is the exact make and model of your phone? If a T-Mo/SGS4 variant then it may be an SGH-M919? Where did you buy it? Is it unlocked? That is to say, can you use any SIM in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
