I plan on buying unlocked factory from ebay.
Can I root and install xPosed immediately?
Does wireless tethering work well without the tmobile plan?
Should I upgrade to Lollipop or stay on KitKat?
What SONY bloatware should I remove?
Any other tips?

Hi,
I have recently asked a friend in the US to buy a Samsung Galaxy Tab (verizon) for me.
Its a contract device locked for a year with Verizon. I have a few question...
1. Wat connectivity options can I use in India?
2. Can I unlock it? How?
please help.
Thanks
I am in India for work for the next 2 months, and have a Verizon tab, only I am not locked into a contract... I would love to know this as well... I suspended my number for now and have been running only on wifi since I got here, but having a data connection would be amazing for me while I'm in Bombay...

I wanna use it in India not only as a wifi device but use a data plan too...
please help...
need to know wat all i need to do to get started...
root it?
deactivate VZW?
Unlock?
custom rom?
please help....
Verstion SGT is CDMA based, so finding good operator for data plan is difficult in india. Tata indicom and RIL is your bet but dont know about their data plan.
For other help regarding rooting, custom Roms, refer SGT development section.
Any Info on the Solution

I just got the s4 active running the 4.3 update baseband version I537 ucubml2. Its through At&t. I gathered that I cannot root right now but does anyone have an answer on if I will be able to at all or what? I was an iPhone user for 5 years so this is new to me but I am familiar with the technology so throw some options my way. I hate a basic phone with restrictions. Thanks!
I live in dominican republic and I am on 4.4.2 rooted custom which has zero AT&T stuff. I don't use ATT and I have no intention of using the phone on ATT network. So my question is this: is there anyone out there who has a rom which is Devoid of all ATT apps and configuration and is slim and neutral enough to be used internationally on any network? I know a rooted 5.0 can be debloated but I am afraid to debloat it as I have debloated too much on previous kitkat and roms and developed some errors. then there were other apps which I could not delete. The ATT contacts messages was keep popping up and other ATT roaming messages.
I am looking for a slim rom without all ATT stuff, stock look and rooted 5.0.
please guide me on the right direction. thanks in advance.

You can try the stock rooted lollipop rom and then run the debloat flash zip to remove anything related to Att.
I purchased a S6 Edge and it was updated to 5.1.1 when I got it. I am a big fan of rooting/flashing ROMS/mods (My last phone was an extremely modded Oneplus One which met an untimely end) but I am not really sure how to do that on this phone. I would very much appreciate any help with info on how to root/install TWRP. Additionally I know that the S6 on 5.0.2 can be rooted but I also heard that once you update to 5.1.1 can't downgrade but it's worth a shot. I also heard that the [email protected] version has a locked boot loader is there any way to unlock it? If not would flashing say a T-Mobile stock ROM work? Thank you for any help. I also know that Devs don't like being asked for ETAs so instead I will ask if anyone knows how development of Cyenogenmod for the S6 Edge is progressing?
There's no way to unlock the bootloader on the AT&T version of the phone. You won't be able to use a custom recovery such as TWRP.
This is also my first Samsung phone (I've always used HTC devices, which were so easy to unlock/root). Since you're on 5.1.1, I don't think there's any way to achieve root (yet). I may be wrong there, though.
There is no way to root, if you want to do fun stuff with your phone, stay away from at&t

Hi, I'm also in the same boat. I know that this thread is old but I am planning to buy the s6 edge with AT&T (used). The phone is currently running on 5.1.1, (OJ9).
Before buying, is there any possible root YET? Am I possible to downgrade? I am sure these questions have been answered multiple times, but like I said, the threads that I have found via XDA are old. So before purchasing, I'd just like to make sure. Thank you so much!!

No and no , the only hope we have is when we get android 6 and wait for any possible new root method.
I am new to rooting and have no idea about it.
I have a galaxy s5 at&t 5.1.1 lollipop, and im trying to figure out if there is rooting for it. I tried kingroot and it some days there will be a strategy and some days there isnt.
I found out about systemless root and i have no idea if it works with my version, and i went into recovery mode or whatever its called and i had no idea what to do there....if there is a root or anything out there or lead me to the right direction that would be great thanks.
As far as I have found there is no root or downgrade available for the at&t variant of the s5 (g900a) running 5.1 plenty of us are waiting to update to it, and even more are in your position being stuck there.
Is it worth it to get a new s5 running 4.4.4 ?
Asking opinions here of the group. I can buy a mint condition g900a that still has kitkat 4.4.4 on it so I assume it can still be rooted. Is this worth buying or not?

It can still be rooted.
Correct, however if you can find a g900t in the same range piecewise it would be a better investment
