I am root (Galaxy s5)

[leSLIe]

So, I want to root my S5, could you guys recommend to me a good how-to guide?
There are a lot of guides out there, but I don't which one can be trusted...

Thanks

follow whatever xda-forums says for your appropriate model of S5

This.

Maybe search/download Towelroot. It was the original root method for the S5 for the locked down carrier variants when it first came out. Not sure if it still works after any updates though.

Is it an AT&T S5?
If so, you probably got the OTA.
In which case you would have to downgrade the kernel to install Towelroot, then put the current version back on.

Nope, No AT&T. I live in South America, so it's a G900M

towelroot should be sufficient, then.

Thanx, I'm gonna give it a try If I brick it, I'm coming for all of you guys

TowelRoot either roots, or it doesn't. There is no "bricking". Maybe you should read up on things before messing with your phone. Sounds like a recipe for disaster
XDA is your best source for info.

Yes, I'm going to read before I do anything
