Galaxy S6 :: Is Rooting Not Similar To Jailbreaking
Apr 30, 2015
I have jailbroken many an iphone and ipod, and I have recently bought the S6. I am keen to root but it seems far more potentially troublsome, and far less straightforward.I bought this in New Zealand from Spark. I assume it is locked?Is the bootloader locked?I couldnt find the matching build on Chainfire, Can this particular model be rooted?Is there any guide to rooting? It seems all the information is spread out all over the place and no definitive guide and FAQ.I can't even find the original stock rom.Is rooting not similar to jailbreaking in the way it is done?

I made the error of upgrading to 5.1.1 (S6 on EE) before rooting and now I understand Ping Pong won't work?
So, any easiest way to root? I'd rather not trip knox but I will if I need to.
I saw a post about rooting without tripping knox but it lost the fingerprint scanner and I'd rather not lose any functionality.

Itried to root device using CF-auto root method and install custom rom, after but after trying to flash it, i got into "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" loop and cant do anything from here. Even tried to install original firmware but still get the same result. im using odin 3.10.6 and 920F S6. I probably try to flash wrong files, but got lost in diff versions of them.

I accidentally deleted an extremely important audio file. Recuva and similar programs that I've tried can't access the phone with Android 5.
This is an employer-provided phone, so I cannot root it.

I just grabbed a SGS6 on 5.0.2 stock Samsung rom which i rooted with PingPong root method to avoid tripping my knox.
Everything works flawlessly but the phone seems to be unable to enter in deep sleep mode. I have already cleaned my cache from stock recovery without success.

So I accidentally deleted files off my internal storage in an attempt to free it up (it said miscellaneous but didn't realise this included all my received whatsapp pics and videos).
So I've read that I need to root my phone in order to try recover these, I've so far downloaded odin and ran the pda which passed. Then I put SUSuper I think on my internal storage and from this point my phone stopped following the tutorial.

I've just rooted my phone. Before it seemed to connect fine to Kies and it showed up properly in Win 7. Now, Kies keeps telling me to reconnect the device in Samung Kies (PC Studio) mode - how do I get it into that mode?

Last yeay I bought my kids NET10 Motorola em326g phones. Because of trouble with the carrier(see my other posts) I got them other phones on other carriers. Ive used their phones as spares till they expire. Well anyway I like a lot of things about the handset-slider,small size,megapixel camera,browser,etc. Is there a similar Motorola model available on other carriers?

Is there an application similar to Motorola Phone Tools or Nokia PC Suite that is available for the iPhone? I have resently updated to iPhone 3GS 32gb and love the product. However, I would like to have the functionality that i have been used to with my previous phone, the Motorola Razr. I would like to be able to send SMS from my PC via the connected iPhone, without Jailbreaking my phone. I have googled and found iPhone PC Suite, however it states you need a Jailbreak phone and i don't want to jailbreak the phone.There is a Japanese that has the functionality I'm looking for. But, it is written all in Japanese. And, I can't read Japanese
Info:iPhone 3GS (8GB), iOS 5.1.1

There are times I would like to listen to FM radio - not an internet stream. My android phone has an app called FM Radio but I cannot find a similar app in the Market. Does the Xoom have an FM radio tuner built in? Is there an app to use it?

I have two different contacts on my phone. These are Lesley and Lesley India. When I ask Siri to call Lesley I am asked which one I want to call being given the options of Lesley or Lesley India. If I state just Lesley then Siri asks me the same question i.e. Lesley or Lesley India. My old iPhone 3GS could work this out fine but Siri can't!

Two of my family members have nearly identical phone numbers. This seems to confuse my N900 to no end - at times, when person A calls, it gets put into the call log as person B, and so on. Very annoying when you miss a call from either one: You can never be sure which one called you. Any ideas how to fix this / will it be fixed in the next update?

I have a BB Curve 8530 and I have an icon on my home screen that I cannot figure out. It looks similar to the icon used for missed call or placed call except it has a curved arrow next to it. It is a gold phone receiver and the arrow is bent at a 45 degree angle. (Kind of like a backwards check mark with an arrow head on the bottom). I have a suspicion that it has to do with call forwarding since I forwarded calls to different phone # the other day, however, I cancelled that. I have checked my messages folder, rebooted, pulled battery, done an update, etc. Nothing works. I looked through the manual and it doesn't show the icon.

Are these 2 functions similar or different? repairing the phone only takes 4 minutes and according to pc companion this will replace my current software with new. While update service takes less than an hour and downloads a software that will also replace my current software? which of the two will probably fix the software issue that i'm having regarding SMS reception?

I forgot to, and my last backup was from july 16th, I've stupidly lost 15 days of valuable notes. So even though its so simple to just jailbreak from your safari browser, you should still connect it to your computer and back it up just in case.

Just noticed this tweet via @QuickPWN "Jailbreakers: iOS 4.1 Update Is A Trap [RT!] http://bit.ly/bs0pB0".No further information on how this has been accomplished by Apple but I am certainly waiting until an official response from the dev team is released.

I know this may have been asked several times already but I would like to solicit your patience again in answering my question. I hope somebody could clearly explain to me what should I do.I have a factory unlocked 3.1.2 3GS (HongKong purchased unit) with the new bootrom that I wish to jailbreak. What are my current options? What should I do? I saved my SHSH files to Saurik's server last week using Umbrella. I would greatly appreciate anyone's enlightenment.
