Hi!
I want to root my Note 9, but I found differing opinions on the impact for rooting while searching the forums.
From what I gather, some issues can be avoided, but would like a concise answer if you have the info.
What features or apps will stop working?
With my Note 2/3/4 everything I cared about was working fine.

Hi, I'm new to the forums, but wanted to ask here because I know the users of this site tend to be much more knowledgeable than other android forums. Basically I've been a loyal Note user for a few years. I started way back with the Note 2, then moved to the 3 when it came out, then 4, and now the 5 a month or so ago. Since I've been using the note for so long I'm very accustomed to touchwiz and other Samsung features, I love my s-pen.
With that said, I'm looking to gain root access to my Note5. I never rooted any of my other Notes, never felt the need to. But now I'm looking for some additional features that require root, like remote GPS toggling and a few specific apps. Aside from that, I want to keep everything else as is. I want to keep touchwiz, I want my S-pen features like air command, and everything else that comes stock with the note 5. I'm not looking for any crazy ROMs, just basic root access on the Note5 while keeping it just as it is out of the box. I understand all methods will trip Knox and void warranty and I'm OK with that.
So can anyone point me to, or guide me in gaining root access without affecting touchwiz and other stock Note5 features, other than Samsung pay?
Thanks
Edit to add... by the way I'm on Tmobile
Dr. Ketan has a great guide on how to root note 5s and just generally an all-in-one thread. Read it and follow the instructions. Just know that after rooting, sometimes, there are issues with the phone going to deepsleep. There are ways around it. Also, after rooting you can never be on all stock unrooted firmware because of the deepsleep issue. After rooting you also won't get OTAs. Pretty much you're on your own after rooting. This series of galaxy devices is different from other more dev friendly devices like the nexus line because you can never come back to complete stock without the deepsleep issue(battery drain while idle). Good luck

Thank you for response...Yes understand OTAs will be gone, I plan to unroot for those and reroot...I understand pros and cons, I'm just worried about losing Samsung features
Hi,
I have a question about rooting my S10e SM-G930F.
In the past I had some problems with some applications with rooting my S7 like:
Samsung Health
Google Pay
Screen Mirroring (Smart View)
etc.
All above had beed solved by great developers here and after some modifications all worked fine for me.
So question is. How to ROOT or which rooted ROM should I install to have all functions above working without any problems?
Hi,
Nobody knows? It looks like ROOT is unsafe on S10/plus/e.
Hi,
there isn't much choices. Root you can achieve only with Magisk and is it tricky way. I won't give you bad info/advices coz I'm not interest root my S10 but for sure you will find answers in Galaxy S10 Development section. Just use in each thread XDA search engine (strong tool for quick answers), this is best advice which I can give you.
Good luck
Hi there, I just bought a galaxy note 8 but somehow my carrier send me a US Snapdragon variant of the galaxy note 8.
I searched a lot and learned about the SAMfail method but to be honest, I think this is too much disadventages (Screen bugs, no Safetynet, battery bug stuck at 80%) for not that much advantages, so I would like to know if there's a way to root it through Magisk or at least another way to root even with superSU minus the bugs provided by SAMfail method?
I ask here because I've searched a lot before but sometimes someone will say "this" and sometime the other say "that" and at last I don't know which one I should listen to ?
Thanks a lot
Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and I have been searching for a way to root my note9 that I got from Tmobile. I'm still trying to understand the lingo thats used in this forum, as I'm not too tech savvy.
Its my understanding that the only note9 that can be rooted is the SM-N960F
I have two older phones as well that are not in use, a note5 and Samsung J7. If I can't root the note9 I would like to root the note5 or the J7. The only thing that I saw from searcing in rooting the note 5 is to downgrade the software, although reading through that post it seems like there are some issues with the root, that I dont quite understand. And then I saw there was no way to root the J7.
In the future I told myself I would get a root friendly phone, although I love my note 9. I have rooted my note 3, when I had it many years ago and it was through a simple program. If anyone has some insights, I would appreciate it thanks.

Sweet! Thanks!!
I light of recent developments, is root access still only available to Note 10+ Exynos chips. I have recently found some information. Indicating:
Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus is a large 6.80-inch screen smartphone boosted with 12 GB of RAM and powered by Samsung Exynos 9825 SoC and the other one with Snapdragon 855 chipset for US/China region users. If you are planning to unlock more features of your Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus, then you are at the right place. In this article, we will guide you on how to root Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus and unlock its bootloader using Magisk Patched boot.
Is it possible to root my note 10+ with Qualcomm Snapdragon chip 855. I have the most recent update of stock firmware and model Sm-975U. Build no. RPIA>200720.012.975USQU5ETLL. I hope I have posted in the right place, if need place avdise.
P.S I am not new to rooting, I have rooted both my Note 3 and my Note 8 using the instructions on XDA whitout any problems. I like the Note model, but not the restrictions and bloatware. If I purchase the devise I should be able I to do as wish. All Sansung needs to do is put in a disclaimer, like XDA, "proceed at your own risk".
