Most of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Models Expected To Be Powered by Exynos 2600

  The speculation has been widespread. Some suggest that the Exynos 2600 application processor (AP), produced by Samsung Foundry using its 2nm GAA technology, will be the driving force behind the majority of the Samsung Galaxy S26 models, including the Galaxy S26 Ultra in certain regions. Previously, Samsung Foundry encountered challenges with the yield of its 3nm production, resulting in a shortage of Exynos 2500 APs for the Galaxy S25 series. The standard Samsung Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra models are all equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor. This marks a shift from previous models, such as the Galaxy S24 series, which used both Snapdragon and Samsung's own Exynos chipsets, depending on the region.  While during Qualcomm's recent earnings call following the release of its fiscal Q4 earnings, the company said that it expected its new Snapdragon chip to be found in 75 percent of the Galaxy S26 handsets. Qualcomm said that it used to expect to get 50 pe...

  1. Is there a method for rooting the sm-g900p, 4.4.4. I have used cf-autoroot method with 4.4.2, does it require a different file?

  2. Hello Ron, Yes, the G900PVPU1ANK4 4.4.4 can be rooted.
    If you don't care about tripping KNOX counter or you already tripped it to 0x1 then you can use CF-AUTO root.

    If you have to keep KNOX at 0x0 you should not trip it. Here's how.
    1. Use Odin to flash the NE5 stock kernel.
    2. Install Towelroot
    3. Odin flash NK4 kernel.
    4. Install a fresher SuperSU
    Just look for the official kernel builds that might have been posted at http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s5/general
