Warranty may be void of your device if you follow the procedures given on this page. You only are responsible for your device. We won’t be liable if any damage occurs to your device and/or its components. Before you begin with guide instructions below, make sure your android device is adequately charged — at least 50% battery of the device. To make sure your device is eligible with this, you must first confirm its model no. in ‘About device’ option under Settings. Another way to confirm model no. is by looking for it on the packaging box of your device. It must be SM-G900T1! This guide is specifically for the Metro PCS Galaxy S5 with model no. SM-G900T1. Do not use the procedures discussed here on any other device of Samsung or any other company. You have been warned! Back up important data and stuff before you start playing around here as there are chances you might lose your apps and app-data (app settings, game progress, etc.), and in rare case, files on the internal memory, too. For help on Backup and Restore, check out our exclusive page on that linked right below. ► ANDROID BACK UP AND RESTORE GUIDE: APPS AND TIPS You must have proper and working driver installed on your windows computer to be able to successfully root your Metro PCS Galaxy S5. If you are not sure, check the link below. ► SAMSUNG DEVICES DRIVERS INSTALLATION GUIDE Download the CF Auto Root file given below and transfer it to a separate folder on your computer (just to keep things tidy, that is). DOWNLOAD LINK | File name: CF-Auto-Root-kltemetropcs-kltemetropcs-smg900t1.zip (21.37 MB) Important Note: Backup important files stored on internal SD card of your device, so that in case a situation arises requiring you to do a factory reset after rooting, which might delete internal sd card too, your files will remain safe on PC. If you see FAIL message instead of the RESET or PASS in Odin’s top left box, that’s a problem. Try this now: disconnect your Galaxy S5 from PC, close Odin, remove phone’s battery and put it back inside in 3-4 seconds, open Odin and then repeat from Step 3 of this guide again. Also, If device is Stuck at setup connection or on any other process, then too, try this: disconnect your Galaxy S5 from PC, close Odin, remove phone’s battery and put it back inside in 3-4 seconds, open Odin and then repeat from Step 3 of this guide again. NOTE: It may happen that your phone doesn’t automatically boot into recovery and root your phone.

I attempted to root my phone and it worked until the rebooting part. It got stuck on the first screen. tried to reset it several times and it wont get past the first screen. I did this after the recent download of lolipop. How can i get my phone back to the stock android setup?
Well i got it to the metro PCS banner screen, guess i wasnt patient enough. lol NOw im waiting for it to get beyond that.
I have the same thing. It hangs on the metroPCS page and does not proceed. Anyone have a fix for this?
Im having the same issue
