I'm trying to root my AT&T Galaxy S4 I337UCUFNJ4 on Android 4.4.4
I downloaded the I337_NC1_Stock_Kernel.tar.md5 file and flashed it using Odin.
I have USB debugging enabled, it's set to allow unknown apps, and I have unchecked verify apps.
I was able to successfully flash the NC1 kernel. The phone status screen still says NJ4 but wifi has become disabled so I'm pretty sure the flash to NC1 worked (also I read that it's common for it to still say NJ4).
When I run Towelroot and click "Make It Rain" button, the phone just freezes. After a while I get a message that Towelroot is not responding. It gives me the option to wait to close Towelroot. I can't exit the app. I've rebooted and tried many times. Sometimes while it's frozen I can hold down the home button to get the list of open apps and can close it that way. Other times that doesn't even work and I have to hold the power button down until the phone shuts off.
Any thoughts on how to fix the problem or alternate ways to root the phone?
I had a different i337 in the past, I think that one might have been Android 4.4.2, and rooted it by a means different than Towelroot. I can't remember how though.
Your help is greatly appreciated!
