hello all i have a question is there any other way to root my s5 because towlroot says phone not supported
You have to follow the directions on downgrading first. You are probably on 4.4.4.

No there isn't
Yes. You have to odin the [root] kernel to your phone. Then root with towel root. Then re odin the kernel for your fimware. Viola, you now have root.

To be more specific, you need to know your phone's model number. You can find it in:
Settings > About Device > Model Number
Mine is the "SAMSUNG-SM-G900A"
As good practice, you should- at a bare minimum, include this information when asking this type of question.

Final thought, you do not actually have to downgrade. Just flash [Odin/Heimdall] an older kernel, then towelroot, then flash [Odin/Heimdall] the current kernel.

That's the only way to obtain root there's no other way whether it's the NG3 firmware or OA1.
If one has NCE firmware towelroot works straight away.
Lulz. Technicalities, friend. But let's give the n00b a break.

If he does not have the AT&T model, yes there is. The international is unlocked. Just flash custom recovery then zip install su.
For others there is CF-Auto Root.
But details, details. Right?

This method will work
How do you unlock the galaxy note so it will work on other sims?
Can you just flash it with a different rom?
I'm not paying for an unlock code, I want to do the root method.

Yes, you will have to reinstall recovery, as well. Just follow the instructions as you did before.

Can someone please help me upgrade my OS to lollipop I've been trying all day I've tried doing it this way but it didn't work: from Droid views article Update to Lollipop and Root AT&T Galaxy S4 Active SGH-I537
i don't think i did right if anyone can help me using the website above if anyone can send screenshots on how they did it or if you have a easier way please leave a message on how you did it.
i do not have a att sim right now and it is not rooted. It is currently running 4.2.2 jelly bean
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-active/general/how-to-update-to-i537oc6-5-0-1-t3089355
you need to start from kitkat rooted
Well. If you want root, look for the stock ROM index, then get ne3 (or whatever kitkat has a full Odin package) flash it, and then if you want root, root here and use flashfire to flash lollipop, if not get the update .zip from the same thread and flash it for no root.

No you cannot due to the bootloader. We got lucky that the 4.4 bootloader works with 5.0. It is not hard at all my friend just download odin. flash all 4 NE3 files with odin. Use towelroot to gain root. then flash whatever rom you like from there. The long list of instructions was due to the old version of flashfire having issues. The new version is much more stable. If you get confused let me know
@Rick1684
Hmm if I'm clear, I have to upgrade to 4.4 before I can upgrade to 5.0 ...
I can't jump from 4.3 to 5.0

Odexed might have ever so slightly better battery life and bootup time, but deodexed is necessary if you want to modify your system, I.e. you want to use Xposed.
