Thought I would share cuz it took me forever to figure it out but if you want to get rid of that custom padlock after root...you can use the Wanam Xposed Module. Just go into security hacks and check "fake system status" to make it"official" again. This might be old news but it took me forever to find something that worked.

It does work, just did it this morning. Are you familiar with how to enable modules in the Xposed framework app (Go to modules and make sure that is is checked, then reboot.) Also for this particular module (And most that mess with boot stuff) a second reboot is required to see the changes.
Yep. .. That did it. .. Thanks

Are you on a custom ROM? I had it working on stock then flashed a ROM and it stopped; or should I say it worked intermittently . After this latest OTA I decided to remain stock and it's working fine again on every reboot ... Not saying that this is your issue, just thought I'd throw it out there.

I'm on stock MJE. Wanam is working now that I updated the module.

Lol. I only used custom roms to be able to theme certain things....with wanam it works best on stock which so far keeps the phone working at its best for me anyway. Xposed is awesome IMO.

Another great module for Xposed is called "Unicon". Lets you change your icons everywhere on your phone...even the lockscreen shortcuts and some settings icons. Uses icons from almost any launcher theme without having to change launchers.
???Sent from my precious Samsung Galaxy Note 3???
I've had this icon ever since I rooted this puppy. Never goes away. Even when I odin back to full stock firmware. Wanam only masks this. But it does not work for me, regardless. So how does one actually get this to go away other than odin stock flash? Cuz if I ever need to revert back for warranty, it's still gonna be there on my phone.

so one thing that really bugs me that the samsung galaxy note 3 comes without the optical reader app that was on the s4 .. so I wanted to know is there any way to get this application rooted or unrooted , i am currently unrooted but if there is a way to get it rooted i will root but i strongly prefer unrooted because i am afraid to brick my phone or something .. I really need this app because i travel a lot at this time and i was lookig forwared to seeing it on the note 3 since the s4 but i was disappointed
Abbyy text grabber might be worth a look. So far as I understand it Samsung license the ocr technology from them anyway.

That's the problem that the line isn't from that app. Because signature recognition failed and mod cannot be installed. I think it is some sign of fail to installing update via stock recovery. For verify by the service centre. Just like knox counter.

Has anyone updated to 4.3 official using any of the roms from sammobile? I see the nordic countries 4.3 is available, I normally use either this, the German or Swedish version, I've even used a Hong Kong one before now lol, but with the recent changes Sammy have made regarding knox and location lock etc, I'm a bit dubious to upgrade.
They normally just work, just checking this is still the case before I end up with an expensive paperweight.
There is a thread somewhere by chainfire with a fix to sammys region lock. The lion rom is pretty much stock with nox removed, you just have to use devil's kernel for wifi

Cheers mate. I flashed it the other day haven't got around to posting an update yet.
Yes it has knox, but I'm not going to be rooting this device because I use it for sky and a few other apps that require unrooted.
Impressions are good so far. Everything is smooth and all my apps are working as they were before, including the sky sports app which got an update recently to work with 4.3.
One thing to note though, if you use allshare cast dongle. It has a problem working with 4.3 devices that have been updated. So if you run into this issue the fix is to do a factory reset.
There is a workaround for rooted devices on here, it's in the S4 section.
A bit of a pain having to reset I know but seems to be the only solution for unrooted devices that run into it.

Hi mate
I'm also using the sky go app, and on stock 4.1 I've just been using ota rootkeeper to toggle root when needed. I really need root for the viper audio mod.
I'm just wondering which 4.3 ROM you've got it to work on? With 4.1.2 it NEEDS to be stock ROM and kernel for sky go to work. If I upgrade I want to get a ROM without knox, but any custom ROM won't work.
Please let me know as right I'm sticking to 4.1.2.
Thanks
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
There weren't any custom rom's available for the 7105 that were stock with knox/location lock removed when I last checked (may be different now?). I just used the nordic rom from sammobile.
If there's none available I think you'll need to wait for a dev to rip the rom and remove knox if you don't want it. Unless you have the time and skills to diy I got the skills but not the time, unfortunately
As I said, I'm not bothered about knox at the moment. I was more bothered by location lock, but I've not had any issue so far.

Yeah I will probably do that at some point.
I'm assuming I can restore my nandroid backup to 4.1.2 if I'm not happy?
The xposed mod unfortunately didn't work... Thanks anyway
Some apps are funny as to what they decide is a security risk. Sky are so far up Apple's arse they tend to look for anything that's NOT as the manufacturer released as a security issue. It's actually bollocks but try telling them that.
My other Note 2 is rooted and running 4.3 without all the bs. But most of the apps I need simply won't install/run due to idiotic requirements of the app provider. Hence why I have a 2nd note 2 which has been rooted but I had to unroot and reset the flash counter to get these apps to work. Guess Sammy aren't too fussed, they did get 2 sales from me lol

Nothing is going to automatically happen to your phone unless YOU physically do something to it or drop it and break it.
You need to download xposed installer, install the framework than after that download wanam xposed activate wanam in the xposed module. In wanam go to security hacks and enable fake system status after you enable it go to xposed in framework and reboot your phone. Now when your phone boots up it should show the Samsung galaxy s4 logo instead of custom.

As of right now the only way to get it back to stock is going to best buy and having them reflash the firmware for you other than that just gotta wait for someone to find a way to go back. I know one way to go back to stock but its a complicated procedure and takes a really long Time so it would be easier and faster to go to BB. Circle battery is a feature in wanam xposed under notification panel. I also changed my drop down and have everything in black and white basically. And have tinted status bar from xposed installer.

I was playing around with kies and somehow got stuck on the firware update error screen.
I was trying to find the odin files for the latest firmware inorder to reset my phone but it seems those are not available online yet.
I looked around and found a leaked 4.3 update and used the pit file to flash on odin.
This got my phone out of the firmware error screen and I was able to boot my phone normal again.

Hey guys! So i just switched from a sprint note 3 to a verizon note 3. I NEED root but my company uses mobile iron. Is there a way to use it and keep root?
Also whats the best way to root this? All I want is root no custom recover.
haha good bc cystom recovery isn't possible atm on retail verizon note 3. seems like vroot is the only way to go right now without tripping knox but do ur research.

believe it or not I like the stock rom (this is the first phone I have ever been able to say that with)
So vroot... hmmm I shall look into it. But I still need to know about the mobile iron.
well I should have been more specific we can flash roms and some mods with safestrap (a sorta of custom bootloader workaroundl). but we do not have the ability to flash custom kernels.

Try Rootcloak to hide root from the app. Works for another MDM software similar to that.
Edit:
Use the one from xposed framework. In not sure if the one from the play store works.

I'm still on 4.4.2 and was wondering if I should go up?
I had it rooted initially to remove bloatware and block the OTA but had to unroot to test apps at work.
I would like to keep the ability to root available. Is it worth upgrading? I think I recall hearing battery life was worse but don't know if that has been cleared up by now.
Also I remember checking VZ site a while back for an installer and it didnt seem they had one. Is it only available through OTA? I would have to remember how to reenable that. Or would I need to do something with Odin? I haven't used that since my Galaxy S 4G.
I was hesitant, but then did it using a stock rooted rom.
Currently on 5.0 rooted using xposed and am very happy for the past 3 months.
