Hi everyone,
Sorry if this question had been asked many times before but I cannot find the answer.
I have a Galaxy Note from Telus (model I-717D) and I want to root and flash custom rom on it. The problem is I'm not sure if the method by dr.ketan will work for my carrier branded phone :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
And one last question, will custom roms in Android Dev section work on my note ? Or do they only work for the international version GT-N7000 ?
Many thanks.

Your NOTE is not compatible with anything here in this forum. You need to search the ATT NOTE Thread as your device is related to that device.
DO NOT FLASH ANYTHING FROM HERE OR YOU WILL KILL YOUR DEVICE!!! This includes the Rooting Procedure, etc...

You guys have the a3 bootloader? If not you can restore to mj5 then search thread for the method to get to official kk. If you have a3 look at carl1961 thread or try samsung experience at your nearest bestbuys if they have fw already. Also post in q and a section.
You can get the OTA zip from this post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701062 (thanks to mazdamiata210).
We do not currently have a ODIN version of NC2 (Official ATT Kitkat).
Please remember that all questions go in the Q&A section.
I will be asking a MOD to move this for you.

Hello Fellow XDAERS,
I have an AT&T rooted galaxy s5 active, and I want to be able to upgrade to the new Lollipop version that was actually just rolled out yesterday, but as we know we can't upgrade to lollipop with a rooted phone, the only way to do it I've heard is by flashing a ROM or something like that, I'm sorry I'm kind of a beginner on this kind of stuff because I just switched over to android from iPhone last year (thank god, haha), but if somebody can help me through this process it would be greatly appreciated.
Please and THANK YOU.

So is the G900A_ND3_Stock_Kernel "G900A" safe for my specific device?
You have a G900A?

If you have an att s5 active g870a, then no. It is a different device than the G900A.

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.

Hi,
Will we get a chance to root our S5 active with 5.1.1 on it in the near future?
