We posted a guide about rooting Galaxy S4 Google Edition's ROM on standard Samsung Galaxy S4 to upgrade it to the latest Android 4.3. But the users who updated to this leaked build lost their device root in the process. Chainfire's Auto Root comes to the rescue - yet again.

This experimental version ofSuperSUespecially for this specific firmware leak. In theory it should also work on those protected engineering firmwares from Samsung that have gone around lately, but I have not tested it on any of those.
