Help Rooting S975l S4

[Chadf Weber]

I'm new to this site and I was wondering if there was any way to root a Samsung Galaxy S4 S975l From Straight Talk. I've never rooted a phone so if anyone know any information please help.

Welcome to the site!

Best place to look is the S4 root forum:

The two main advantages of rooting a phone are being able to put a custom ROM on the phone and the ability to install apps that require root.

Two downsides - there is a small chance you can brick the phone, and if it's newer you may void the warranty.

The root process is different for every phone, so follow instructions for your specific device. Here is more information about rooting:
