Why can’t I root my Samsung Galaxy S4?

August 25, 2014 at 11:30PM:

Hi,

I want to root my Samsung Galaxy S4 (see details below). After researching a lot, I thought TowelRoot would be the easiest option. So, after downloading the APK (v3 of Towelroot) and trying to ‘make it ra1n’, the app said that my device was not compatible. I even tried the ‘ModStrings’ codes. So are their any other options for rooting on a Mac? If so how would one root?


Some device info pulled from 'About Phone' :

Model Number: GT-19505

Android Version: 4.4.2

Baseband Version: 19505XXUGNG8

Kernel Version: 3.4.0-2309103
