Can I get one of you rooting experts to pm me on rooting a Galaxy S5? I've got some questions.
Thanks in advance.

Talked to Rick on the phone. It's less a rooting problem and more a carrier unlock problem.

Yeah I didn't root my S5 Active in time. It now has V5.0 from AT&T and I have as of yet not found a way to root it.
