Ill keep trying :) (also ive heard things about some flash counter so you might need this app after root
>>Apk File<< (its a paid app normaly so thats y i give u apkhere link
Useful Info<<
Many Samsung devices store a flash counter that keeps track of how many times you have flashed *custom* firmwares to your device. On some devices, a yellow triangle or other sort of visual warning is also displayed during boot if you are running a *custom* firmware. TriangleAway was built to disable the triangle (if a visual warning is present) and reset the custom ROM flash counter to 0. This app requires root !You can find out the current status of your flash counter and firmware state (custom or official) by booting into "download mode" on most devices. The usual way of getting into "download mode" is by first turning off your device, then turning it on by pressing and holding VolDown+(Home)+Power. Alternatively, the "adb reboot download" command also often works.When you run TriangleAway, if your device and firmware are supported, it will show you the detected state of the binary (custom or official) and flash counter value, and the option to "Reset flash counter". Please confirm that the information shown is correct before resetting the values.On a number of devices, TriangleAway can work, but your firmware may not be supported directly. In that case, the app will tell you it needs to reboot into a special boot mode, which will be happen if you select "Reset flash counter". The device will reboot into a special mode which will allow you to review the current status and reset the binary and flash counter values (or abort and do nothing). On some devices this will actually trigger the counter to 1 if its 0 - so if you're "just checking", do that in download mode!!!! THIS IS A DANGEROUS OPERATION AND COULD POTENTIALLY BRICK YOUR DEVICE. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK. A USB JIG IS PREFERRED IF YOU HAVE A WORKING ONE !!!
( and by brick I mean brick - only a board replacement or a JTAG unit will be able to save you, don't mess with boot(loader) stuff unless you *really* mean it! )Note#1: using Triangle Away may unmount your SD card. Reboot or manually remount it from Android settings.Note#2: on new devices status can only be reset on stock firmwares! Various models are supported depending on firmware, but only the exact models listed are supported regardless of firmware version.Whether or not Triangle Away works may depend on your kernel, try flashing a different one if it doesn't work.Please also note that some devices set the counter to 1 at every boot if you are running a custom kernel or recovery. On these devices, Triangle Away may always display 1 - make sure to check the counter in actual download mode.For discussion and technical details, see the XDA-Developers.com thread here:[2014.01.15][ROOT] TriangleAway v3.26 that this download is also available from that thread completely for free. You can go there and download it for free, or buy me a beer and download it from Play. It is the same program.I'm not sure about future updates - chainfire[dev~blog] - Triangle Away vs Samsung

I'm going to give the Mac method a try. I have a backup phone in the event it all goes south and bricks. I've been pretty careful so far. Thanks for the great info. You have been a massive help. If I could give you a gold star sticker right now, I totally would.

Okay, so I may just switch to the note 4. Because I tried using mono, and even used Cydia Impactor. Nothing. This phone is more grief than it's worth.

why not try to actually help him? all you did was link him somewhere which may be no use to him instead of listing rescorces

because I have no knowledge about rooting but it is widely recognised that XDA forum have the most expert knowledge about rooting, he can get more detail knowledge reading and asking at the forum there

Nothing is helpful there. But thanks for a smart troll

excuse me? how is that trolling?
That post was to someone else his post was deleted?) who ask me why didn't I help you directly?
so I replied that it will be better to ask for rooting advise from a dedicated site about root rather than asking here where the focus is mainly about game mod and hacks?
