You can also use the new Kingroot @ http://www.kingroot.net/?myLocale=en_US (instructions on how to do this here) http://www.smartphoneclinics.com/root-straight-talk-samsung-galaxy-core-prime-sm-s820l/then use SuperSUme to switch to supersu (found here) https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B99AlNBqfc9pZjZGU3d0RjhXM2M/view?pli=1 and it will remove and delete Kingroot and all associated files from phone (video on how to do this here)

this is verified to be working on my Straight Talk Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Model # (SM-S820L.05) purchased 11/26/2015 Android version 4.4.4 Kernal Version 3.10.28-660640dpi@SWDD5720 #1

Make Sure to Disable FRP Lock to avoid problems
  • Open Settings on your prime
  • Go to About phone and tap seven times on Build number.
  • Now go back to Settings and you’ll see “Developer options” there, open it.
  • Look for “Enable OEM unlock” checkbox/toggle and make sure you Check it or turn it ON.
