Root without pc!!?? HELP

.I want root my XZ with any app (without pc). Please help.

not possible
C6603 ?

I think it would be possible, if you ask me, but you would have to execute all the commands from your phone, by hand.
Very risky though. If you make a mistake you could brick your phone and have to reflash using a pc.
Not recommended!!
Also you would need some knowledge about how android works, before you try anything.
Just use a pc. That's a lot safer and way easier

Actually you need a PC anyway, actual rooting method implies downgrading the kernel, rooting, and upgrading the kernel. You need a PC to down/upgrade the kernel.

Well, you're right, in the case of newest firmware. Older firmware doesn't an need old kernel, so it would be possible.
But for .67 firmware, yes you really need a pc.
Didn't consider that since I'm on unlocked bootloader, so don't need difficult rooting processes

Well, you need a PC to unlock the bootloader and flash rooted kernels, and actually the last two firmwares need kernel downgrading on locked bootloaders, .244 and .67. Sorry i'm just beeing picky

Ask me how do it.If it will easy for me I do it.

Well he only wants root, so unlocked bootloader isn't the subject here, neither are the rooted kernels.
I thought 244 was rootable without kernel flash, but i believe you in that..

[Q] Software update

So I live in Romania, and I have I8190 (international unlocked non-nfc model) and I have xxamd3 since I got it in July... Problem is, software update (even kies) say I have the latest version, however, the latest version for "Romania" (without any carrier) and Vodafone România (my Carrier) were released in September...
I know I can easily flash with Odin, but why am I getting no update by kies or software update?

Nevermind, I got it carrier-free from eMAG, and it apparently has the COA version (cosmote), which is pretty much the only one who didn't get the amg4 update
My question is, what happens if I flash the Romanian version for no carrier? (this might also fix some connection issues, since I am on Vodafone)

No problem. I am from Spain and I use a rooted ROM from Germany without problem.

Yeah, I researched a bit, and I found that the ROM or the CNX (Vodafone ro) cdc were not in my system (/system/cdc), guess I'll just wait for the update from cosmote, I unrooted my phone for warranty, and I don't want to lose it

[Q] c5306 customization number

Hi there... does anyone have the c5306 customization numbers or knows if the c5603 ones work with the c5606?
I have read/search through the forum but i havent been able to find the answer to my 2 questions.
I stumped into this post and hence my 2nd question.
All i want to do is flash the 12.0.A.2.254 kernel on my SP via the build.prop + Companion method, so if anyone has a better way or suggestion i'll be happy to read it, thx
(already rooted my SP)

Oh cmon guys, anyone? Or perhaps an advice in how to get my phone updated if there's no firmware updates available in my country?
Sent from my C5306 using xda app-developers app

just use flashtool and any .ftf
my phone is UNBRADED, I live in Mexico and I use o2's firmware...no problems

Sweet, wth i'll try right now... Thx for answering dude

So, turns out c5603 firmware DOES work with the c5606, LTE working and all, I haven't seen anything wrong (besides the obvious wrong model showing on the phone info) so far.
Flashed the Deutschland LTE ftf via flashtool.

What if I flash C5303 FW on a C5306????

Hi!!! I just bought my C5306, but I already saw that everything is just made for C5302 and C5303. So the question above is because of that, as 3 and 6 are LTE models (obviously differs on basebands). There is room for a brick (soft or hard)??? I'm asking because I want to flash, root and install a lot of stuff and that is an obstacle.
I clarify: If it is a matter just of basebands I don't worry to lose 4g because I never use this.

I don't know but this thread might answer some questions.

[Q] Does the resources work on C5306?

Its just basebands, c5303 includes basebands of both 2 and 3 but with lte. So nothing happens really.
Happy flashing

So I don't have to worry about any brick if i flash a .ftf file for C5303???

How likely for a note 4 port rom?

im sure me and half of the forums are curious how likely and unlikely (being realistic) is it that we will see a note 4 port ?

We can't answer that question because we don't have the software yet. But... Very unlikely because bootloaders.

Hopefully it comes!

What's going on with the bootloader? Is it still being worked on or is it a lost cause.

I flashing rom 4.4.4 of note4 on note3 ..this suitable with my region. ...everything ok ...but not booting and transfer to download mode

How is everything ok if it doesn't boot or go into download mode? Sounds like a brick.
