I updated my phone to kit kat the same day that i got it, i havent noticed any slow downs at all, the only thing that i regret is that i update without thinking about a downgrade, so i whould sugest you to update using a firmware without a locked booloader.

Unless you have a specific model of Note 3 (N900W) the KK bootloader won't allow you to go back to JB.
If you have an N9005 I wouldn't recommend flashing N900W firmware as bricking can be upsetting...

Yes, but you can't go back to JB once you upgrade to KK...
Go to Sammobile.com to find out if your region has it. If not you can upgrade to another region's KK, just avoid carrier roms as they require a pit file to flash too...

1. Mine never has.
2. At Sammobile it says - UK (Vodafone) - this is a carrier rom.
If it says UK then its a generic stock rom...
You will have to re-root after update but make sure its the KK cf-autoroot (if you use that).
As you are rooted I'm assuming you have Knox warranty void at 0x1.
If not do a search on how to update to KK using Mobile ODIN, that way you can retain root but still have Knox at 0x0...

Wondering this too. Flashing an official 910F version in Odin doesn't work, I wonder if we can however use 910F based custom ROMs? I believe the F model is the closest to the Aussie version as we normally get the same Sammy models are Europe, I think some additional bands to support CAT6 LTE for our networks was added in the G version which is the only difference.
Isnt that for a business. I should not need to install my knox. I paid $1000 for my phone the day it came out and KNOX should bloody work the piece of crap. Also when i boot into recovery it says INSTALLING UPDATE for about 45 secs, everytime i boot into it, so whats it installing???. Also i can do anything in recovery but when i reboot out of recovery it flashes a quick Error sign. Is this normal??? Can anybody shed some light. Samsung said its normal but i never had system update and error when booting into recovery in any other samsung device.

Galaxy note 4 sm n910g without tripping knox Counter?
Hello sir , is there any way to root Galaxy note 4 sm n910g without tripping knox Counter? i heard with towel root it's possible but sadly note 4 is not compatible with that :crying: can you help me with any other idea or way to root it? 2.question > is that truth if knox counter void the warranty still they will fix the hardware issue? i mean of course they will not fix the software issuse...but hardware yes?

Hi Guys,
I ordered SM-N910C (Note4) and I should be able to received them sometime nextweek. Now, being said, rooting the device came into my mind .
1. SM-N910C (open line/ not carrier lock) can be rooted as long as its Boothloader unlocked , right? - if boothloader lock, is there a way to unlock it at this point?
2. Once I rooted and Installed TWRP/CWM, can I restore them to default/ Stock recovery ?
3. Once rooted, do I still get update on Samsung Apps via Samsung store?
4. Once rooted, Can i still update the firmware as soon as Samsung released new version such as 5.0 (understand that I need to manually upgrade it) - I think I read somewhere that if Note 4 is rooted, you will not be able to upgrade to 5.0 even doing it manually, im not sure if it is 100% correct.
5. Once rooted, other samsung apps will still work , right? such S Healh, S Voice, etc (all N4 feature).. is there any feature/ samsung app that stops working as soon as we root the device?
6. I know Note4 camera is really good, but I found this site, that we can still boost Note4 camera by replacing the camera apk, http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-boost-galaxy-note-4-camera-performance-using-mod-1473882 .. anybody already tested this ? wondering how it performs..
7. Planning to root it using CF Auto Root.
I understand that rooting N4 will trip Knox (let me know if there are new procedure that will not trip knox).
Thanks
1.You can root without touching bootloader.
2.Yes
3.Yes
4.Yes. but you have to flash stock ROM manually with odin (Never heard you can't flash ROM with odin bcoz of rooted status)
5.There may be some app got broken like S health,screen mirror and some banking app etc . but almost have FIX for it.
6.Your linked content is from XDA source only, search in theme and app section
7. My preferred method is flash CWM/TWRP and flash SuperSU zip (CF auto differ only by keeping recovery stock, which actually have no meaning but lot limitation is there)
No method there to root without tripping knox
PS : This topic goes to Q&A NOT in development
1.i don't think any note4's BL is Locked...or if there is any there will be unlockers soon.
2.yes, with odin.
3.yes.
4.you can update it with Odin.where do you Read it??! (if there was any problem you can use Custom Roms..Or Deodexed Lollipop Roms and Flash Them via Recovery)
5.i know if you root New Samsung Devices With CF-Root Method and others like it KNOX Will Trip...its mean All Security things that Use Knox will not work anymore Like Billing Services...go to settings/about phone and see them.
6......i don't know too
7.see 5.
i didn't root my N910C too and waiting for new procedure

Thanks, dr.ketan and genius.lizard2.
I;ve been looking for CF-Auto-Root file for Note 4 SM-N910C, and I only found this.
SM-N910C (Thailand, Exynos): CF-Auto-Root-trelte-treltexx-smn910c.zip
I am from Philippines , do you think above file will be compatible? What will be the effect? and I am not sure where my SM-N910C came from as I also saw bunch of SM-N910C from different country.
Thanks.
Hi guys do you know if we can expect a knox 0x0 root method, like towelroot for our notes?
Not at this point, definitely rooting will trip Knox 0x1, at least for now.

now that i'm thinking....i can't wait anymore for Another method..i'm going for CF Root too.
Please update us when you already rooted it and how it goes. My note 4 will arrive next week.
The cf-auto-root I found is Thailand version of SM-N910C, I'm afraid that it might not compatible with other version SM-N910C, or we encounter issues (different langauage?)
Anybody who tried this on any SM-N910S?

download official .tar.md5 ROM file from sammobile or if you have one use it.open it with Winrar.there is recovery.img , extract it.
make a tar file with this img file...you can do it with linux or a batch file in windows like: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446269
HI guys,
After rooting, would you recommend installing TWRP or just use stoxk recovery? And what is the advantage of TWRP over stock recovery?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
With TWRP or other recovery, you can flash custom ROMs and MODs. That is the only purpose of it.
Google kingroot and download latest apk you'll get temporary root, it get lost once you restart.
Go to note 4 forums for further info.

It does not work with LP. Please read AT&T note 4 forum in general section look for root threads. If you want root, you have to downgrade to kk.
Im on stock lolipop , if i downgrade to stock 4.4.4 it shouldnt trip knox right ?
I don't really know if there is any AT&T note edge odin package to take it back to kk. Why don't you open a new thread in q&a asking about this. Note 4 owners have taken device back to kk from LP with no issues, but they do have odin package.

You can use odin to flash official firmware and it doesn't trip knox. You can download the firmware from sammobile, they have all the firmware's for AT&T and Verizon, Sprint, etc
Download the firmware from sammobile
Load the tar file in odin, in the PDA. Odin will check the file. Put your phone in download mode. Hit start, wait, your phone will flash the official software, boot up to a brand new kit kit... falsh kingroot 4.00 and have a nice day. This does not trip knox, I say again flashing official firmware does not trip knox. Only custom recovery flashed in odin trip knox. MAKE SURE THE FILE YOU DOWNLOAD FROM SAMMOBILE IS FOR YOUR PHONE!!! You can find your model number in your settings in the about section

Something very strange just happened with my phone. I installed Kingroot, let it run and it rebooted at about 58% and said "Optimizing app 1 of 431", it ran through all of it and then came back up. I didn't notice anything. So I went and opened up King User, it said it couldn't root it. So I went to Kingroot (I believe), and there was a sad face with a tear. I backed out, went back and hit root (I believe), next thing I know, it reboot by itself, and it says "custom" with an unlocked lock on the front. Right now it's optimizing app x of 103. I'm waiting for it to finish to see what happens . . .
It's a Verizon phone, btw.
---------- Post added at 12:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 AM ----------
Once it was done with the 103 apps, I looked and King User was gone, just Kingroot. I reboot it again and it didn't say "custom" on it - I had another phone out and ready to take a picture, too. Oh well . . .
So, in theory, we could use the temp root to download/install ti backup and kill off the bloatware? Has anyone actually gotten the root to work on the VZW Note Edge?

Motumbo has done exactly that . I'll be trying it on the Note Edge FY when i get home.
I need to down grade first though ...
I've just updated to Lollipop in the UK and it's added "S finder" and "Quick connect" buttons to the notifications tray.
I've seen people saying you can modify the build.prop to remove them on the Note 4. Does anyone know if the same method works on the Note 3?

flash CF auto root via Odin to get root.
it will trigger knox (but the phone is out of warranty anyway)
also there are methos to root without modifying knox.
I am using Note 3 purchased in UK only.
Now using Touchwiz based Aryamod ROM which had an option to hide the S-Finder and Quick Connect
