For those of you with the S4 Active, you can find instructions on rooting your device here. Goehot's apk can be downloaded from the link below. Hopefully we will see him back on the iOS scene for the release of the iPhone 5S and iOS 7.

I'm not sure if you read the header of this thread.. Although this is an apple forum he was commenting on an Android topic.

I do believe there was a reward/bounty to be collected by the person who would first root this device! Kudos to Geohot.. And earning $450 in the process.
