SM 900 : Just rooted : now what? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First of all, I don't want to install any custom rom right now. If kit kat comes I may change my mind.
But till then I am enjoying ad free phone by installing adaway.
Installed Xposed and Wanam from there.. Lots of UI customisation.
Multi window from xperiacle a must have and fit for note 3.
What you guys will do/suggest. Safely delete some unnecessary bloats, and many other things.
Please share.
Thanks

Next step u need to do automation marvels on tasker

Can you please share which method you used to root the N900?

Cf auto route, thread in development section. Yes, it will trip knox but who cares.

I always install titanium backup and of course a complete backup using cwm before i proceed in installing other apps after rooting.

[ROOT SUCCESS+ GT-N7100 [Leaked firmware] N7100XXUEMJ5 (JB 4.3) - Open Asia (OLB)

I managed to get root, and with the help of the KNOX Disabler app, I disabled Knox nonsense, using RootExplorer, deleted the Knox files from /system/apps folder.
You need to flash Philz_touch_5.15.0-n7100.tar.md5 recovery, reboot. Switch off phone. Start phone in recovery mode. Flash CWM-SuperSu-v0.99.zip in Philz_touch_5.15.0-n7100.tar.md5.
Restart phone and run previously installed KNOX Disabler. I downloaded and installed the version 1.0.1.
Let me know how you get on.
Thanks to the dev owners of the said recovery, CWM-SuperSu and KNOX Disabler.
I am a happy user again. Lol!
how about warranty bit status in download mode? still 0?

I did not care about Knox warranty, however following your question I went into download mode. This is what I see:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-N7100
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (12 counts)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
WARRANTY BIT: 0
That is all the information at present. I hope this answers your question.
Cheers.

Sorry--but this is a bit ambiguous--
"Flash CWM-SuperSu-v0.99.zip in Philz_touch_5.15.0-n7100.tar.md5."
I follow that we Flash CWM-Supersu-v.0.99. zip in Philz Recovery[which we have previously flashed to device with ODIN]--but what is the tar.md5 bit about--surely we don't reflash Philz in ODIN, again--or, are you simply referring to the, now, on board, CWM Recovery?
Not trying to be a 'smart-alec' just not following.
be a smart user and assume that he just copy paste the previous line because he dont want to retype the recovery name.
Hey, @YOSEFE, just another question--which ROM were you using before you Flashed this latest leak?
Reason I'm asking is that, I am currently on Dr.Ketan's 'hybrid' ROM which is a mix of XXMI6, and XXMJ2 plus mods taken from latest Note3 firmwares--and, it's great with many things not available to standard Note 2.
I would like your opinion of this latest leak firmware, XXUEMJ5, and how it compares--presumably it doesn't have any of the fancy Note 3 'gizmos'???
But, is it fast, smooth, clean, not buggy. etc....
BTW I'm not saying that Dr. K's ROM is not super fast, smooth, clean, etc...in fact it's excellent but, just wanting a comparison, to see if there was any good reason to Flash it.

Philz Recovery will have already been flashed by others, however I mention it because there will be those who have not flashed anything past the firmware or ROM.
If CWM Recovery works for anyone that is fine too, but I have flashed Philz Recovery on advice somewhere in a thread. (Lazy me, can't say which thread).

I was on XXMI6. The ROM can be a bit laggy. As someone pointed out to me, it is only a test firmware. Nevertheless, it is smooth enough for my daily use.
There are obviously no Note 3 goodies on the ROM. If those are very important to you, and considering the amount of trouble you have gone through to flash Doc's ROM, I would say keep Doc's ROM.
Thanks for the info @YOSEFE, The Good Doctor's latest work is pretty cool and definitely what I want. Sometimes we get caught up in Flash mania and need to find a good solution and stick with it.
All the best.

I also used Root Explorer to search for all knox files and references to knox, I then deleted all these. My phone still works well.
No guarantees from me though. I took a risk, thankfully, my phone did not suffer any problems.

You are too late in responding to this.
That method you refer to was one of the two or so of available means. Since then, Chainfire has released superuser version that incorporates a disabler or uninstaller.

rooting before flashing a custom rom is useless, flashing recovery and then flashing a custom rom is how it should be done.. but ppl have just made rooting one of the steps, and now new users think rooting is actually necessary to flash a custom rom..

I've almost given up on successfully rooting and installing custom ROM on my Galaxy Note3 (N900V) It seemed that there were roadblocks at every method that I thought would work with my Verizon Note 3. The above quote suggest (to me) that rooting is no longer necessary but that it can be done simply by flashing a recovery (CWM or TWRP??) and then flashing the custom ROM.
Instructions usually assume a Windows computer to flash via usb cable. I'm running Linux so where can a find a step by step guide that will let me install Cyanogenmod or some other custom ROM that will let me debloat, and perhaps improve function on my Note 3 which I plan to be keeping for the foreseeable future.

Suggest you ask in the forum for your model .
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2574886
Doesn't the Verizon version of the Note 3 have a locked bootloader that must be unlocked before flashing TWRP or a non-TW based ROM? Heimdall can flash TWRP in Linux: http://glassechidna.com.au/heimdall/
Doesn't the Verizon version of the Note 3 have a locked bootloader
yes its locked .

Request for latest Custom Stock Rom

Please could someone point me in the right direction.
I have gone through the forum via PC and Android (Tapatalk) but I cannot find a Stock 4.4.2 ROM that has only a basic few extras.
I'm looking for the following...
1. Latest Stock ROM Flashable in a custom recovery (CWM,TWRP)
2. Deodexed
3. Busybox
4. SuperSU (Rooted)
5. Speed Addons (SDCard Boost, RW Fix)
6. De-Knoxed
7. Looks like plain TouchWiz with all stock apps.
If anyone could post a link I would be ever so grateful.
I must learn to do these things myself at some point. Its my 8th Android phone lol.

I know how to flash and I was simply asking to be pointed in the right direction for help. After all XDA is a community and isn't that what a community does? Thank you to those who helped. I managed to get it sorted a while back. Turns out I have a strange boot loader that was semi-bricked. I've since repaired it and have been using the Unofficial CM12 with TWRP. Also user Dejan Sathanas, are you trolling me or what, very unhelpful on several of my posts now. Didn't you know sarcasm is the lowest form of wit?

Xposed on Lollipop? Very confused. Does it work?

So I stayed away from Lollipop due to silent mode being gone. Finally updated and sure enough hate the sounds modes. I saw there was an exposed module to bring back KitKat silent mode.
Been doing tons of research on this forum and other websites and can't find a clear answer. Does exposed work on the Verizon S5 on Lollipop?
Some sites say at first it didn't but it was then updated..then other sites say even the update won't work on touchwiz ROMS? Idk if that just means stock VZW ROMS or even custom touchwiz ROMS?? Very confusing
If anyone knows please let me know. Also if it WILL work are there instructions for this phone specifically. Any Xposed instructions I find mention booting to a customer recovery...and then I remembered hearing that safestrap doesn't work on Lollipop so idk

i'm using this version of xposed and it works fine. You do need to use FlashFire to flash the zip though give it a try just install the app then flash the zip.

Yes. Samsung has done some of their own tinkering with ART on lollipop which makes Xposed cause a bootloop. The unofficial version only works on Deodexed versions.
@aholeinthewor1d
If you want to use Xposed on TW Lollipop, you can use this ROM. Then you can go here to install Xposed.
Also, Safestrap DOES work on Lollipop, you just have to use a KitKat kernel to access it. This app/thread makes accessing Safestrap on Lollipop extremely easy. No need for a computer.

What did BusyBox do? URGENT PLEASE HELP

Hello, I have a S5 rooted running stock. I'm pretty sure I didn't trip knox when I rooted it. So anyway I rooted my phone a while ago using odin and it was all good. See I use ANZ mobile pay, which is pretty much like android pay. Then the other day I was messing around with overclocking and undervolting and stuff, so I installed busybox for the app. Then when I went to go pay and now the app doesn't work. It says something because the device has been modified. I believe there is an Xposed module for this but I don't have Xposed because of TouchWiz. I would prefer not to have to reset or loose data. As soon as there is a stable CyanogenMod (13) release for this I will probably go over to that so I can use the Xposed module but I'm not sure when that is. So I uninstalled BusyBox and wanted to know if I could undo what ever it did. Anyway if there is another solution it will be much appreciated. Thanks

If BusyBox is installed into system/xbin it will break ANZ Mobile Pay. There is an Xposed module called And Mobile Pay Root Detection. You can find the XDA thread explaining it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/xposed-anz-mobile-pay-root-detection
It is available in the Xposed download section and the Xposed repo.

If you are still rooted, you will have to delete the BusyBox files that were installed to system/bin or system/xbin, I believe. If you want to know exactly where BusyBox was installed into the system, install the app again, let it load and look at the top of the app. It shows where BusyBox is installed. Then you can use your root file explorer and navigate to the folder and delete the files that were installed.
Also, Xposed works on odexed and deodexed Rom's. Did you receive an error in TWRP when trying to install the Xposed framework?
Why not Odin the stock firmware and give yourself a fresh start?
and now a word from our sponsors....
All the above is sound advice......
But just to comment on what you said about tripping knox.......
You say you rooted via Odin.....
That means you flashed either CF ROOT and superSU or TWRP and superSU....
Both these methods WILL trip knox.

Kiethross39 is correct. CF AutoRoot will trip the Knox counter as well as using Odin to install TWRP. I have a Galaxy S5 rooted with CF AutoRoot and with TWRP installed and my Knox counter is 0x1. Boot to download mode and look in the top left corner of the screen and check your Knox counter. I guess it really doesn't matter at this point but just for future reference it's there. Let me know how everything works out.

Yes I am still rooted. So removing these will allow ANZ mobile pay to work. Is there an easier way to remove all of them. (yes I know there is this one tool, but I don't want to flash it).
