[Q] Root de la Vega RETIRED? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

FIRST POST ON THIS AWESOME FORUM AND KNOWLEDGEBASE :good:
Any Ideas why @designgears "retired" his Root de La Vega Method? He said use KingoRoot, but many People say they tripped KNOX on mj6 or mj8, while mj3 seem to work fine...
No real statement, also scrolled his twitter acc.
Gonna get my Note 3 (n9005) tomorrow and don't know what is the safest way to root with latest Firmware...
don't wanna trip knox or such...

thanks, but i'd like to have latest Firmware
mj3 seems to work with RDLV as far as i don't install the new bootloader, but beyond?

MJ6 also .... for the next one we will be able to try also

yeah i read this thread, but as i am new to quite Android (coming from iOS jailbraking) i am quite cautious...
okay so it'll work
steps for my note 3 will be:
-unbrand by Flash mi7 german csc without Branding
-create mj3 rdlv
-Flash created Firmware
- do the sd Card part
[when mj6 german is out]
-create mj6 rdlv
-Flash created Firmware
-do the sd Card part
?? some ppl said something about other files i had to Flash ??
pls confirm/correct me give newies a chance to get pros

sorry, but as I have written it, my CSC is part of the CSC from the stock BTU MJ6 (XEF) and i won't take the risk to play with other CSC even if it seems to can be done
Maybe someone who has unbranded his unit can help you
EDIT : and for the second part, yes use RDLV and add to the zip the boot, non-hlos, modem and hidden part from the stock MJ6 you will use

thank you, extract the files from the tar.md5 and put them wehre in Odin 3.09 ?
so i wait for mj6 DBT right? dont wanna f*ck anything up with CSCs

rename the *.tar.md5 made by RDLV to *.tar and, with 7-zip, open it and add the other parts from the stock firmware (firmware unzipped with 7-zip)

Has anyone heard anything from DG?
I've created a modified version of URDLV that supports the extra bits of newer firmwares and ideally would like his permission before I post it.
Does anyone know which Forum he's living in now?

Lol, I've added an extra option to accommodate the new firmware requiring the modem and HLOS.
So there is now 3 options.
Full (this is a new modified version)

[Q] How to: Official Update to XXUBMEA?

Hi folks, I wanna update my device to I9505XXUBMEA (for App-to-SD), but don't know how to exactly. I want to do it in the most legal way, without erasing anything (Apps, Data, Settings etc.) on my S4.. So can someone tell & show me the best way how to do this please?
Btw I'm from the Netherlands and got my phone here, so I don't know if I can use or need the Stock Firmware and/or Kernel File from Germany's XXUBMEA update and if it's compatible without bricking my phone or losing data, because I havn't seen any I9505XXUBMEA update for my country yet..
Thank you in advance.

No, nothing will be deleted unless you do a factory reset.

Ohh thank God.. i seriously was doubting now to continue any further, since I would've to Re-apply all setting and download all Apps and Data once again.. :good:
Now, I dont know what the Kernel is used for.. but do I need to get that also? After I have the 1.6 GB sized Stock Firmware (aka ROM right?), I can start installing?
I'm downloading I9505XXUBMF8 (first one on the list, most recent one) than from the Official Rom Collection (Thread).
I've got myself Odin also (File name: AndroidJinn.Com.Odin307, Size: 1,15 MB) like you said. (Please confirm if its the right one)
If it's not to much asked, could you write within a few sentences, the steps on how to get trough the installation and what I need to do before starting, like: do I need to backup anything or does my phone have to be USB plugged to my pc the whole time etc.?

It depends on the service center. Some dont look to csc if it is stock. And some look. Any way you can flash your original firmware back.

If it can accept another sim so it is unbranded firmware.
Any way, you can flash any stock for your I9505. Kernel is included in the firmware, no need tp flash it seperately

Can someone tell me why again XXUBMF8 is better than XXUBMEA?
I mean what are the differences compared to one another,
the only thing I know is that they both support App-2-Sd.
Which is actually ofcourse the most important thing to know,
but what other <better improved> features does the XXUBMF8 (DBT) have than XXUBMEA (DBT)?
And how are overall user experiences with both versions?

[Q]Knox 0x1, possible to upgrade to 4.4.2 Official Stock ROM?

Hello.
Because I do not remember correctly, I have knox 0x1, and I read somewhere it is not possible to upgrade to official roms if knox has been triggered.
Can I update my phone to 4.4.2 with knox triggered?
Yes you can via Odin
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Knox doesn't affect using official stock roms. It's only for warranty purposes and for the actual knox container itself.
As Dahdoul said, grab it and flash via ODIN.
Be warned. Once you upgrade there's no returning to 4.3 as the bootloader locks you into KK.

Did you notice any increase in perfomance?
Any cool features?
Do you have more RAM free?
Do apps work properly?
Any new samsung apps (blotware) worth mentioning?

You gotta be really careful with HK Note's as they're set up different to the normal one.
Flashing stock 4.4.2 is a nightmare, you will get Ext4 errors. -- Then you need to root and install a custom recovery to fix your issues.
You need to get your PIT file, if you fail flashing normal stock, then you need to re-partition with your PIT file and flash a clean firmware on it. There is quite a bit around XDA about it, ad you really would need to read up on all the methods or you will find yourself in a tricky situation especially if you wish to preserve KNOX (PS if you have a HK Note then you're not under warranty anyway as it's an import so KNOX doesn't mean anything to you unless you are using it for the secure container. Plus UK law around KNOX isn't too bad if it is tripped)
Good luck, if you get super stuck come back and we'll see what we can do

Lets grab these MJ5 and NB4 ota.zip and odin.tars

I dont have an AT&T Note 3 but I am willing to walk someone through how to grab them (you must still be MJ5 or lower) C'mon guys this ia community where we're supposed to help each other. If you look at my posts you can see I've posted countless Odin tars for the Galaxy S4. I dont want any of the downgrade tars or one clicks, and yes I know how to make them and and I know what they do, I just want the original unaltered files. I will post them for everyone via AFH if someone is willing to grab the OTA.zip and/or Odin tars. If you have them please post them. Id also be willing to make a stock deodex rom if thats what It takes. If these are already posted somewhere can someone direct me to them? I couldnt find a post that had them.
To get the Odin tars:
1. Google and download Kies and Fus Downloader
2. post here and il give more directions
To grab the OTA.zip:
1. Download the zip from the update notification and make sure you are rooted
2. go to /cache/fota or /fota and upload the update.zip then delete or move the ota from /cache or /fota so that you dont accidently update if you dont want to
bump
From the nb4 update thread
It fails out for me, likely because I've deleted some of the bloat I'm guessing. Deletes when it reboots, but the next time it finishes downloading I'll choose the Safestrap recovery when it's booting and copy it out. /cache/fota/2400258.cfg correct? that seems to be the only file that's growing during the download.

If someone will post (or PM me) instructions, I'll try to "borrow" my wife's untouched N3 long enough to pull the ROM. It's not MJ5, though. Unless you catch it fast enough (which she didn't), it's NB4 now. (And yes, I know how to use adb and a command line.)
Here you go
MI1 (4.3):- https://mega.co.nz/#!rJ91BDxZ!FUlVFkPlR2ZwqkOJsSvskQZHUwQujXC7UVI1ofhQMd4
MI9 (4.3):- https://mega.co.nz/#!PQ8CBbbK!IXUxr1__SfmdLGFwkU_AAzf5jvpUzpvr4Ep3XJdBEUE
MJ5 (4.3):- http://d-h.st/p4a
NB4 (4.3):- https://www.dropbox.com/s/zccryfxycby1iq8/2400258.cfg
NC2 (4.4.2):- http://www.mediafire.com/download/mbpctf505co09o2/2400258.zip
@bajasur and @Surge1223 Do you magic
P.S. Here is leaked MLG (4.4.2) build *Unofficial* (all of the above ones are official):- http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23321874045862491

Stupid question...
What do I do with these files? Are they Odin files? Sorry... just returning from the dark side (apple) after almost a year. I just want a taste of this new update. :silly:
Those are the OTA cfg (or zip - they have to be named zip to sideload them) files from before I know what version to MI1 to MI9 to ... up to 4.42. What the thread originally asked for.

So I can abd side load these and it'll install that version of the firmware? Sorry for all the dumb questions... Never had this problem with my GTN7100.
My understanding is that you can put the file on your external sd card (if you have one), boot to recovery, go to install zip from external source (I think that's the wording) and install from there, or you can sideload with adb.
Start with the file one version above the one you're on and keep going until you get to NB4.
But wait for confirmation from someone who actually knows what he's talking about. I've sold phones, I've repaired phones, I've written huge software systems, but I'm not anywhere near being a cellphone dev.
(After that it's your choice whether to go on to KK or not. I'm not giving up root and Safestrap for a slight increase in speed that I don't need anyway.)
We waiting for you ^^. My Note 3 get leak version 4.4.2 and i have just restore it to MJ5 follow the turial in forum but after that i read some disscusion thread i know that many people can't update OTA to 4.4.2. So i decide waiting your product.
Good work guys!!!

Here is something to get you started and do it fast I'll do it myself but damn college is pain in my ass.
1. Patching files using adb. Look here
2. Extracting Patching lines & Delete lines from updater script. Here is bash script.
3. Patching on linux (Much faster than adb) Look at this thread and also this post from thread.
4. Extracting files from .ext4 here
5. Odin packages.
So... Are you looking to make it possible to downgrade? Or... Yeah...
If so, I am willing to test.

How to root 5.0

I have just rooted once before using cf root method. Now I want to update to 5.0 from sammobile. Just give me suggesstion which countries firmware should I download and also tell me easiest and safest way to root it.
Is xposed framework working with 5.0. What about su and sb game hacker?
My current baseband is UENC2 which country is this from?

1. The best is wait till your country receive the udpate. But you can try Poland firmware if your device isn't branded or unlocked.
2. You can use CF-AUTO-Root for root your device.
3. Xposed Framework for android 5.0 still in development. SU works correctly.
4. You can install this APP for know your CSC (country code).

Just downloaded Poland one from sam mobile the zip file only contains 2 files, the md5 file and ssl_dl.dll file, but i think to flash i need 4 or 5 different files on odin.
Can any one tell me how can i flash this firmware?

I have flashed it thanks alot, but on cf root it doesn't has file for 5.0. how to find it?
Hi,
I also flashed the official 5.0 Rom from Poland, it works perfectly. I came from official 4.4.2 rom unrootet, brand free, germany.
Now my question is:
How can I root the 5.0 rom from poland?
Important for me is, that mhl out is still working afterwards.
Does triggering knox create any other problems (excl. warrenty)?
Thank you for your help!

I rooted it today. The method is also here on xda. You just have to flash recovery and super user.
Ill see if i can get the link for you.

Dude! Stop being lazy, we're not here to spoonfeed you. This isn't called forum.xda-spoonfeeders.com, a simple Google search would have given you the result you were looking for. Helping other users when they have a problem = yes. Doing other users dirty work when it comes to performing a simple search on Google = No.
And besides, sb game hacker is warez and is strictly prohibited here. If you want more lives - buy them, if you want more money - buy it, if you want all levels unlocked - play the game properly....stop cheating! Thread reported to moderator!

Exactly that. A long time ago i wanted to ask him if Google is banned in his country ?
99.5% of his questions could be resolved by a simple search. But obviously spoon feeding is what he prefers. And i can't belive how many people do spoon feed him.

I am against spoon-feeding as well but a simple Google search as you guys lately use to mention quite a lot is not really that simple, I mean typing the keywords and hitting the enter button couldn't be more simple but the search results are not, and that's the relevancy of this post.
Also a lot of people reply anyway, yet they don't care to actually help a member. You guys do realise that XDA isn't really a place of all Einsteins right (no place is)? And you didn't grow up in an hour either? Getting the points?
