I have been in the rooted world of the Galaxy S3 for along time with CleanRom.
What is the safe way to rood? De LaVaga wont work with newest update, vroot and kingo are malware, so how? Also do you need to unlock the boot-loader like the S III? I will load JellyBeans rom as he does great work. I hope to see more ROM's etc soon
Thx!!!!

Its been so long since my s3 was unbootlocked, what does it limit the N3 from doing?
Saw this post
"doesn't work for lots of people. Myself included. here's what I finally did to keep root with the original Root de LA Vega.
1. Odin back to original stock MI9
2. Odin to Root de la Vega (full instructions in that thread)
3 . installed xposed, wanam, security hack boot screen to remove "custom"
4. rebooted 2X, enabled supersu pro, checked the survival mode, unroofed
5. took the OTA, re-enabled supersu.
"
Thoughts? Do I need to do all that?
I hope the N3 gets the great support the S3 did!
I'm waiting hoping for a easier workaround myself.. Unfortunately. . Hope they get there!

Do you have N3 with firmware MI9 or MJ7? If you have MI9 the post you quote will work as long as stock rom is not modified. However your phone will brick if your phone came with MJ7

Don't know the firmware yet as it shows tomorrow. When u say as long as the stock rom is not modified, does that mean I can't load beans r?

So the post you quoted is for those who want to keep root after latest OTA(MI9 to MJ7). If your phone came with MJ7, then there is no way to root it other than kingo root method. Those people who fail to keep root is because they modified the stock rom(eg., debloat, Mod, etc, safestrap isn't considered modification because it's just recovery alternative.) and took OTA and during the OTA it just fails because samsung OTA can't verify your system.

Ok just got it... It has MI9 and it also wants to do a software update too? Is there a step by step guide for Rooting with MI9 and will it set up counter one forward?
Take OTA update.
Root with Kingo.
Install Safestrap.
Install Beans.

Did everyone feel kingo was safe as I saw post saying its malware??? Where did the kingo links go? Pls pm me
Thx

Kingo.links aren't aloud here. .. personally I was worried at first... not worried now.. I think things were blown out of proportion. I emailed them and they replied with a msg along with a pdf

I am wondering who has rooted their Note 3 using Root De La Vega and ODIN?
I am currently on MI9 and NEED to root. I am very familiar with ODIN and even ADB commands the old way. However I see a lot of posts about MJ7 and root methods using Kingo or vroot.
If you have rooted using Root De La Vega and Odin how is everything going? Have you experienced any problems? If you did, did you unroot and re-root using the "One-click" root methods? I would like to root tonight and would appreciate your input. If this is the wrong place for this please do what you need to do. Thanks
If you prefer MJ7 one-click root. What guide did you use? Videos only have small sections like rooting but leaves out things like SuperSu and Safestrap or links.
Edit: Going to try the Kingo method.
So I finally gave it a go and it was very easy. Make sure you pay attention to the device as it asks you for input while using Kingo. It was very fast and could have been faster but I missed a prompted on my phone.
Steps:
1 updated to MJ7
2 Kingo rooted
3 Safe strap
4 Backed up stock image
5 booted into system and was back to normal.
I'm rooted with De La Vega. Process was as smooth as butter Nd no problems whatsoever.

The link in root de la vega is dead in there for the 1.24 gb file. anyone have a copy sitting around on their desktop?
Here, I uploaded the .torrent file to Dropbox for you.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/srecrvngezytbqn/Root_de_la_Vega-SM-N900V.7z.torrent
Also, note that if you're on the MJ7 build don't flash this through Odin it won't work and you'll soft brick. Once you're on MJ7 the only way to root is kingo

?Note III?
When I download the Universal Root de la Vega file--- the tar file is not there when i unzip it??
Am i missing something?
You're missing the fact that you shouldn't be rooting using that file any longer.
Unless you have never taken an OTA.
What is the baseband you are on?
If it does not say MJE then
take the update and do not use root da la vega
If it does say MJE then
Do not use root de la vega.
Now,
Go search and root with kingo root after downloading their software.
Next. Enjoy your Christmas.

There is a new version of the program out , but it does trip Knox on the new baseband so I would use Kingo as well.

I have MJE and recently tried to root my phone using root de la Vega and soft bricked my phone. I fixed it but I still want to root my phone. I don't want to waste my time with root de la Vega if it doesn't work. Does it work with MJE? But I don't want to trip KNOX either so I don't want to use kingo. Which do you think I should use?
A little search and some reading will answer those questions in about 5 minutes

Kingoapp will not trip knox. De la Vega does not work for mje on kingo.

You have it backwards, Root De La Vega WILL trip knox, where as Kingo WILL NOT trip knox.
On MJE your only option to not trip knox is Kingo. I used it on the version before MJE and it worked fine. Then I updated OTA to MJE and root was preserved but checking the preserve root option in SU pro.
