Just wondering if anyone has found a stock Odin .tar.md5, for our AT&T SM-N900A.?
Also can anyone confirm any EFS backup solutions that work for our device?
Thanks.
There is no Odin image as the moment. If you mean something like a nandroid backup you can't do that yet.

Well, just it tight. Root has been achieved, thus an image will almost certainly be available soon. :highfive:
Has it actually been achieved or is it in progress?

Seems like that's a tall order, being selinux was requested by NSA.
Root has been achieved and I have the Odin files.

If memory serves me right you had the Atrix 4G years ago. I'm glad to see you've got the Galaxy Note 3 as well.
The OneClickBin for DesignGears' root method is stock odin flash I believe. Just don't finish the rest of the root process.
SRS Root claims via their twitter and website that KOT49H.N900AUCUCNC2 is now rootable as of 1-April. Has anyone tried this method?
Note: This is the OTA update downloaded from AT&T.
If it was rootable, we would be well aware. Can you provide a link?

I see where they have it under tested devices. SM-N900A is specifically the AT&T version right?

This is what I found but i'll have to study this a little more. Searching google I haven't found anybody that used this since we got the update and knowing we just got this special bootloader with the 4.4.2 update.
on their site under Last Actions by our Users, it does show someone rooting our device, but who knows... tempting to try maybe

I saw that but they were on 4.3 version. Tried to look again but when you click on the home page it keeps changes the users and devices.
I tried it did not work on 4.4.2

yeah, i just updated it and it changed, but maybe it's just updating to the newest activity? when i saw it it was definitely the KitKat NC2 firmware that was supposedly rooted

Same here. The app says successful but no root on the phone.
Tried to download it... Got this.... FYI
EDIT:
This is possibly part of the method the software uses to gain root access...
I have never heard of this before. Things like this make me nervous. I like recognized XDA developers showing me how to root. Got a screen shot of NC2 being rooted.
Could be real... but...

post here when a custom recovery is found to be working on the AT&T Galaxy s5 G900a
Thanks to geohot over at towelroot.com we can all bask in the glory of absolute freedom. Until a custom recovery is confirmed we won't be flashing any ROMS so when one is found please post in this section. As well as any custom ROMS known to be compatible with the galaxy s5 g900a.
Anyone thought about SafeStrap yet? Is this a possibility?

Easiest root I've ever used but now the tricky part I stayed this thread because we need a custom recovery to flash roms correct?

Nope. You'll have to update to 4.4.2 in order to perform the unlock

However, once unlocked on 4.4.2, you can freely downgrade back to 4.1.2 and have an unlocked bootloader as well

Downgrading your security version will brick your device, so I wouldent suggest it.
However, you can use AOSP 4.1.2 with it.

Then just don't flash the security component. Just do System and I think boot? I'd have to check mine, but I went from 4.4.2 to 4.1.2 and back to 4.4.2 again. It can be done if you are careful

If you update everything to 4.2.2, unlock, then flash your modem, kernel and system to 4.1.2 you might have success.

The XT907 is surprisingly capable for its age.
Hoping that Verizon launches an LTE variant of the Moto G. It's a worthy successor to the RAZR M.
was this thread really necessary? the page u linked to links to a thread on xda in the razr m general section http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783912
Unlocked it the first chance I got but for some reason the custom recovery won't work. However, if you guys got it working on your phones, mind if you can toss me the rope, so I can fix it.
