I have installed the zip file for safestrap me7 for verizon. When I go to file explorer, it does not come up as an apk file. How do i install this on my samsung galaxy s4 for verizon?
This is the subforum for the Galaxy S4 Active, not the Galaxy S4. The version of Safestrap posted here in this subforum by Hashcode is for the I537 AT&T version since they're the only US carrier that sells the GS4 Active.
You need to seek support over in the Galaxy S4 subforum at:

And be careful when you're installing such things; it could brick your device if you're not paying very very careful attention to what you're doing.
Hello everyone,
I have a Galaxy S5 Active - SM-G870F with Android version 5 and I want to root my device, however on chainfire`s site I find auto root only for 4.4.2 version
My questions are:
Will it be ok to root my device v5 with auto root zip for version 4.4.2?
Other way around would be to use G900F (standart galaxy s5)`s model zip for rooting, will this be okay, and which option is best?
Thanks in advance for your time and attention.
Well, I took the risk and can confirm SM-G870F S5 Active with Android vesrion 5.0 with the latest stock firmware for Europe from sammobile (25 Jul 2015) can be rooted with cf-auto-root for version 4.4.2.

Thank you for this information! I rooted the sm-g870F for my friend and it worked. Do you know if there is a working recovery for our device available?
How is this related to at&t phones?

No, I have not checked this and for now I cannot help you with such info. You could try asking around the forum or search for similar threads.

danielsgl, this is not related to at&t phones but for the european s5 active - g870f model, my thread was posted elsewhere but a moderator moved it. It seems that this subforum is the only place where s5 active topics could be posted.
