Guys, this doesnt work on FA19. stop asking. there is no updating it etc, as it stands you have no exploits that will root this device that are publicly available. you guys have cwm and can flash a pre-rooted kernel in odin to gain root for the life of this device.if a new exploit comes out publicly then i will make you guys a new one so you can have one click goodness, however in order to get roms youll still need to use odin... so its prolly just best you learn how anyways ;)
 
Now this great news for all newbies. Clean and easy means knowmore pulling out hair trying to figure out cures for every different problem.

A huge thank you for all those involve with the new root.
 
THANK YOU!! I have been looking for a way to root my Replenish for over a month, the KMS way didn`t work but this did. Once again, Thank you!!
 
Just wanted to pop in and say thanks to the folks who came up with this one. I've been trying to root my phone since August and to no avail (damned auto-updates...) but this one did the trick nice and quick.

Thanks! :)

Edit: To anyone else who might have this happen: right after running it, my haptic feedback stopped working. Give the phone a quick reset and it should be back in working order.

Wow - you cats are lucky I was in the neighborhood! :)

Tipped posts go to Phandroid as a news story.

Reported posts go to mod staff. Report all you want, we love reports, no job too big or small.

OK, let me check your forum status and see about who's making stickies or what, mmmmmk?

PS - Congrats on the 1k!!! :)
 
OK - I made this thread a sticky, just to get it done.

Looks like a mighty long list of stickies for one root forum tho.

Is it time to unstick the interdpth thread because this supersedes it?

Can I you cats to discuss that among yourselves, then PM me or hit the report button and let us know?

Cheers, thanks!
 
gracias! sorry for the confusion, i was guessing that report = bad and tip was good ;)

anyways yes the old version is obsolete :)

if/when gingerbread comes out for us this method should work just fine :)

With your phone off find your one-click root file but do not open it, now power on your phone and when the first samsung logo appears open the one-click file, then let the phone boot up completely and make sure you have USB Debugging on and hit enter on your computer.

please use the version posted here. dont use the old one and complain in the new thread that the old one doesnt work ;)

@psp_noob yea when i get a chance ill have little instructions on it, videos should still be the same procedure tho, as you are still downloading a zip, extracting it and then running the batch file
 
OK - so I've read the threads here, I get it.

I've unstuck the interdpth thread, and I'm sure the many that enjoyed that method will continue to be grateful for the hard work done there.

Shabbypenguin - please consider updating your second post in the old thread to point to this thread - your present instructions require too much jumping around within that thread first, in my opinion. Also, consider checking your font size choice for mobile browsing viewers - but that's just aesthetic and totally your choice. ;)

Hope this helps - remember muchachas and muchachos, asking for mod help within a post within a thread within a subforum might get noticed in time - but that handy !Report button next to any post will always work the best! :)

Stay excellent, and drop me a PM if you need any special help.
 
I'm having the same problem that Kelevra666 was having.
I'm in debug mode on my Prevail trying to root from a mac.
Started terminal, ran ./Linux-Mac.sh
The phone rebooted and gave me the same error Kelevra666 received.
I ran it several times and still no root.
Any ideas?
thanks
 
if you have teh exact same error then i suggest you go to the other thread. as i told him that version he is running is not my newest one.

i wrote both scripts of both versions, kms 3.0 and kms 4.0 was done without me but even then it was changes to the exploit and minor changes to the script. ergo i know which version spits out what
