Hardware Hub Phones, Tablets, & Wearables

I've been trying to root my Gs4 the past few days. I have tried 3 different versions of Odin. and I get the same error on all of them. I have also tried 3 different types of the root file you use with Odin.

I have verizon

 

 

 

The error in odin is:

 

<ID:0/004> Initialzation..

<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/004> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/004> boot.img
<ID:0/004> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/004> FAIL! (Auth)
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

 

And the phone says:

start [224, 1440]

secure wagiccode check fail : boot

I tried that and I still get the same errors.

So I figured it out.

Here is how.

After doing a factory reset, update all the way. Then install the Samsung drivers to your computer.

and do this video.
