Really curious to see if we have any Devs working on the AT&T S5 yet? If so, when do you all think we can expect to start seeing some stuff in the development threads? Obviously BL needs unlocking, if possible. Do we know of anyone working on this?
Thanks Guys!!!

Wow, you haven't read this forum much before posting, have you.
No root yet = no development yet.

I am aware there is no root. If your insinuating that there is some other thread on the subject, I am fairly certain there is not. If you mean something different entirely then would you please elaborate?

My S5 is coming in today. Locked boot loader means no development ever except for maybe some safe strap stuff much later down the road which is just rehash of stock roms. No AOSP or CM.

I personally don't really care about roms, as I like the new Touchwiz and don't want to lose some of its nice features. I would like to have root, though. Hopefully someone finds a way for that to happen soon.
Edited OP to clarify on some confusion about exactly what I was asking.

Yes indeed. I just want some debloat and maybe a cusom kernel for minor performance tweaks.

Not available for ATT version of the phone, I hope it will sometime soon, not having root sucks.

Chainfire needs to the stock recovery to build root for the device, basically auto root by chainfire modifies stock recovery temporarily, flashes su then flashes back stock firmware through odin.

You can't pull recovery without root on your device, the only thing we ATT users can do is wait for Samsung to post the firmware which they havent, SM-G900A is the ATT model number, Tmo and Sprint are already up so they already have root.

keep refreshing and hope it gets posted soon lol.
hmm
Keep in mind guys that if the ATT BL is locked chances are CF Root will fail to flash or boot even if CF builds one for ATT...also if this happens knox warranty is tripped leaving you without warranty coverage and no root...likely a new KK exploit will have to be found...hope I'm wrong about the BL as I'd like to get rid of bloat before handing the phone off to GF..
Wow this iB4STiD person has some serious thanks racked up!!! Hey iB4STiD, are you going to be working on stuff for the S5?

Yes, that is correct.
But I'm using 900f which already has unlocked bootloader. I didn't want to root previously as I thought any flashing using Odin will trip knox
Now, just looking forward to KNOX reset breakthrough

Not that it is a real issue for me, but I echo your sentiment
Does anyone know if using a CSC changing app (which requires root) will trigger Knox after getting root via this method?
Why we need to make knox 0..? Is there any advantage?

No. Just means you void your warranty with Samsung.

Also there was talk that Samsung Pay might not work in the future. No way to tell until it comes out
That is the only reason I'm not rooting yet.
I really want to use Samsung pay

I have used iroot on other phones. Never tried it on s6 but im pretty sure it would work. Just install the app. You might have to go to a chinese sight with no english but just dowload it. The app has english so your good. It install its own su app which works well. Open the app and follow the instruction they are easy the app does qll the work.

You might want to tell everybody in the op that as of right now flashing a custom recovery will trip knox.
So quick question guys:
If I root the S6 with the new tool, it won't trip Knox?
Once its rooted, would I be able to replace the lock screen with the one from stock android and replace the dialer with the google dialer? I love stock experience but I wanted a premium device so I went with the S6.
Thanks.

Unrooting.
Is it possible to unroot at some point after using this method? Lets say I need to use my warranty for the phone. Is unrooting possible?

No.. Your warranty is gone forever.
Why do people keep asking this silly question, you root your phone you kiss your warranty goodbye.

You shouldn't answer unless you're sure. This root method can be reversed by used ODIN to completely go back to stock.
Cheers guys for looking.
Can I root my Note 5, flash a kernel etc and return to stock with no problems I.e tripping Knox, not being able to use Samsung Pay?
I've looked around and not got a definitive answer.
TIA,
Chris.

No. Once Knox is tripped you can't use samsung pay. Ever. Even if you flash back to stock.
Tripping Knox really only impacts use of samsung pay and shows a notification that the system is modified during boot. How big an issue those are you you, you need to decide.
Typically samsung will still repair phones with tripped Knox, but there are no guarantees. And whether you would be able to return a phone with tripped Knox is up to your retailer. No one here can answer that.
