Android tips and tricks: We all know that the Samsung Galaxy S5 will launch in April, but some people certainly cannot wait to get their hands on this high-device. And despite its disappointing design, there are still a lot to praise about the current Samsung flagship. 

In a new report, famous developer Chainfire has just discovered how to root the Galaxy S5, specifically model SM-G900F which is the international version of the device. 

According to a report by Android Authority, Chainfire chose the version because there'll be a lot of models, but I believe this will be the most common 'international' model".

So how would you be able to root your Galaxy S5 once you get it?

First, you will need to download the latest version of the CFAuto Root tool here. Once you have downloaded it, you may flash the tool in your Samsung device through the ODIN tool in your PC. 

The tool will temporarily modify the device's recovery and then install SuperSU. Once done, it will reflash the recovery back to stock.
