What you need to know

• - Developers have found an exploit in the U.S. variants of the Galaxy S9, S9+, and Note 9 that allows for these devices to be rooted.
• - However, it only works if you have specific Android versions and firmware installed.
• - It does not void the phone's warranty, though.

The most important bit of information: you need to be on BL 1 (up to 3 for the S9) for this to work. So if you ever updated your phone to Pie (except Note9, which was on BL 1 until the major July update), you're out of luck.

Wait now
What's going on here
I have a note 9
Can I really do this 🤷‍♂️

If you never updated past Pie, yes. Otherwise, no.

Damnit only thing I'll miss now is Samsung pay which I just got kinda working thanks to you

I don't update shhh unless it's needed/wanted 🤙👍

Actually if you got info that would be great but I gotta try the card swipe over $100 if it does this I'm staying where I'm at, it's like wearing a watch when a phone in your pocket 🤷♂️ for me anyway 🤙👍

S Pay still works when rooted. So go right ahead!
