NHA Stock Rooted Rom On The Verizon Galaxy S5

[DroidModderX]

​

If you have updated your Galaxy S5 to the latest NHA ota update you can root it by flashing the NCG kernel, rooting, and then reflashing the NHA kernel. Once this has been achieved you can then reflash the SafeStrap recovery. Once you have flashed the SafeStrap recovery you can resume installing rom. There is already a stock rooted NHA rom. This rom can also be used by other developers as a base so expect plenty of other development to roll out quickly.

The rom features are limited since this is pretty much stock with root. Features include free native wifi tethering, zipaligned, busybox, initd support, odex and deodex, KNOX removed, removed verizon updater, removed verizon videos which frees up much needed space, fix extSD card write, extra toggles added, enabled infinite scrolling, and more.

I love this, everytime big red tries to stop root... crafty devs get it back, it's a never ending cycle, one that Verizon should just give up on.. they are wasting valuable R&D or making other companies waste it to use their network...

there's so much to say on the issue

reminds me of this old story where tons of money was dumped into stopping copy protection only to be defeated by a magic marker
