Questions should be in Q & A. That's what its there for.
Buying a 900V is a big mistake if your not on Verizon. No, you cannot flash N9005 roms on this device. Your best bet would be installing one of the roms in the development section here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-note-3/development

I don't know if there is a scamware version of Kingo going around or something, but I've never been able to get it to work.
I can use ADB without any problems on my SM-N900V. I then run Kingo and it does nothing, just sits there "waiting" for the devices. Windows Firewall disabled, No AV software, Trying Kingo w/Admin permissions and without. Nothing works.
After wasting hours with this, I finally decided I'd try a vanilla Windows 8 install, nothing on it but Kingo. Still didn't work.
Brought my phone back to my PC, ADB works just fine -- tried Kingo again -- nothing.
...On a related note...
After searching the forums for some time, there is one question I just can't determine definitively:
Can the SM-N900V (Verizon Galaxy Note 3) be truly "unlocked" with a custom recover (or) are we still limited to Safestrap options?
Thank you in advance,
RKM

I had the same problem with Kingo initially. I don't remember how I fixed it, but it was a simple fix.... something stupid. Now it works with no problem.
In regard to the recovery, if you have a retail Note 3 from Verizon you will brick it if you flash a recovery other than safestrap. The bootloader will recognize the recovery is not stock, your knox will void you warranty and the phone will not boot. The only available recovery option for retail is safestrap.

I've tried all of the crazy suggestions that people have claimed will make it work. Setting screen timeout to 10 minutes, allowing untrusted & disabling app inspection, everything.
I can even use ADB directly from the Kingo directory, no problem.
And here's the real kicker .. if I delete the token allowing ADB access to my phone, Kingo will not trigger the phone to prompt for one. So Kingo is *not* even attempting to run ADB.
Not to mention, if you look at the logs, the entire time Kingo is communicating with Chinese servers. Sure, it might not be doing anything to root the phone, but that's not going to stop them from sending loads of data to China in the process.
At this point I think I think I'm best to chalk up the 12+ wasted hours on Kingo and give vRoot a try. What a nightmare, I've never had such a bad experience with an Android tool, whether it be for S-OFF, Rooting, etc.

Any luck with vroot?
I wish you could recall the "something simple" to make Kingo work. Where can I get "Safestrap?"
I just got a Verizon SM-900V with MJE yesterday. I need root to be able to use ARUnchained with my AppRadio 2. I tried Kingo, and it just kept switching between "connecting" and "downloading drivers" it never would connect to the phone. At this point, I'm not to concerned about custom ROMs, nor am I concerned about voiding the warranty. I just need to be able to obtain ROOT without bricking my phone. All of the threads on successful rooting of this device are from around November of last year. So, is there a way to successfully root any more? Thanks in advance!
please help.. I have 900v upgraded to 5.0.1....lost pics and voice recorded files...
please help with my note 3

Hello folks. Unsure weather or not i post this in the correct place. So i rooted my SM-N9005 the other day just because well i"had" to. Ofcourse the next day the 4.4 update got released and i couldn't upgrade since my by now unfriendly phone told me i had tampered with it. I tried to restore it without really knowing what the hell i did and feeling a bit stupid for not getting it. I managed to remove root but it still says it's tampered with. Reckon i triggered the flash counter somehow. I could really use your help removing root and get my little phone back to "original" shape. Talk to me like a 3 year old since i apparently couldn't figure it out on my own. Cheers!
(And yes I have been reading so much about this my head spins now. I tried different ways to recover but i cant get it to work. I intentionally left out all the different apps i used here from the forum since that will probably confuse you guys aswell.)
how did you root?
download the kitkat firmware from sammobile then flash it using odin (so you don't need to upgrade via ota) then re-root

Ok, it started when i tried to root it by following an online gtuide. However it didnt work so I tried another one and "semi-bricked" it. Using odin. I tried readiing up on it as much as i could but the more i read the more different ways i found. Long story short, i rooted it. It worked fine. But removing root didnt seem to do the trick. I would just like to return it to stock without ruining anything. And be able to upgrade OTA if possible.I love fiddling with these things but since i pay so much for this damn phone I rather not do anything more that can destroy warranty etc. As i understood it rooting it wouldnt leave a trace and should be easy to undo. Now I understand that wasnt the case. I know I am the one to blame but would love if anyone could just try to explain what to do in a simple step by step way. If you need any info on what i did I can try to explain but i ended up with like 12 different webpages open with different solutions and to be honest I am not sure I can explain everything i tried...

Read a lot more before going any further. If you are running the latest update you need to roll back the firmware before rooting it. Look and see if you are running NI2 firmware. If so then read this.

If you are on NI2 and followed my guide under How to Root NI2 and use the files I have linked there it will work. If are not on NI2 download the full NI2 tar, flash it in Odin and follow the instructions posted. Again make sure you use the files in my post, I've used them many times on miltiple phones and they work.

Just out of curiosity have you checked to see if you have root? I thought I was in the same boat as you until I checked with root checker and found out Towel root had already rooted my phone. Towel root doesn't do anything spectacular to let you know when it roots you and you'll get the unsupported device if you already have root.
I'm looking to root my s4, I just upgraded to lollipop and love it but there are some things I would like to do that require root. Hoping that someone can walk me through the process. Thanks in advance
Interested in this as well. Just need a point in the right direction. Thanks
I may be incorrect, but at the moment root for I337UCUGOC3 is only available via Flashfire.

No. You have to downgrade to 4.4.2 first, root, then flash up to 5.0

Bumping an older thread.
I've been searching around the forums for a guide to downgrade and a link to the Stock 4.4.2 ROM. AT&T Upgrade happened inadvertently. I either wasn't paying attention or it happened automatically.
Found plenty of post saying the same thing but no trustworthy guide on how to downgrade effectively from 5.0.1 on the i337 to 4.4.2. Normally I'd be up for experimenting but a newborn has me a little sleep deprived and looking for an idiot guide.

Are you trying to get back to 4.4.2 then attempt to upgrade too 5.0.1 root?
Yes, but it sounds like from the tone of that question that I might be screwed.
You can flash back to nb1, root with towelroot, and go to lollipop with the keeproot method. Look in the general forum for [GUIDE]Odin to Stock, Updating, Rooting, and Installing Safestrap by guut13 and [How-To] Update to I337_OC3 - 5.0.1 and KeepRoot (4/7/2015) by muniz_ri.

I also have a I337UCUGOC3 running 5.0.1.
Unfortunately yesterday my phone got messed up (I'll spare you all the details) and I had to do a factory reset. I am really unhappy about this because I wasn't able to backup properly with Titanium Backup since I'm not rooted. As a result, I now need to spend a bunch of hours getting my phone back to the way I like it. I am honestly not interested in flashing custom ROMs. I simply want to root so I can run Titanium Backup.
Based on your experience, how long might it typically take for a root guide to come out for this model? I'm trying to decide whether I should try to wait it out with my phone feeling "unfamiliar" to me - or if I should just go ahead and give up the idea of rooting / backing up.
Also, is there one site or forum (this thread???) where I would be able to find out how to root this model when it comes out? If so, where?
I would very much appreciate your advice!

There is no way to root on OC3 at the moment. No clue on how long it'll take if a method even gets found. I recommend downgrading to NB1 using Odin then following the steps on herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3075814

FWIW my wife noted the user interface on her S4 suddenly completely changed. Looking at it when I got a chance I saw it was 5.0.1 (OC3). I actually don't know what it was previously. So AT&T is definitely pushing out the update.
Already on 5.0.1
I bought this ATT phone used, unlocked, and already on 5.0.1. We use it on the GoSmart Mobile network (owned/operated by T-Mobile). Today (a few weeks after the purchase), I get this message saying that there's an ATT software update available. How can ATT push an update to a phone not on their network? Will this update screw anything up? Will it re-network-lock it? I don't want to update this phone and, since it's my wife's phone, I don't want to risk a brick (I am in a similar situation with a baby and am quite sleep deprived). Previously, she had an HTC First (ATT phone use on GoSmart) and it notified us of an available update, but would not actually update (thank goodness). Do I actually have anything to worry about with this ATT update? Or is the notification just an annoyance? Thanks in advance.

The latest update, from 5.0.1, OC3 to 5.0.1 OC4 is a security update which is believed to be a response to the stagefreight bug. The update is relatively small, and should not "screw anything up." It will not affect network unlock.
As to why you're getting it on a non AT&T network, I'd guess that the update server determines the phone is an SGH-I337 and pushes the correct update for the phone.
How to root
Okay, so I have 5.0.1 with i337ucugoc3 and finally rooted it quite easily (after many failures).
I used WonderShare's MobileGo.
The process was actually very simple, but it was very confusing as to what the software actually wanted from me.
To make it easy, here's all you need:
1. Go to Settings->more->About Device
2. Tap on "Build number" seven (or more) times quicly
-- this will unlock the developer tools
3. Tap the back arrow
4. Tap "Developer options"
5. Tap on "USB debugging" to enable
6. Go to wondershare.com, download MobileGo, install
7. Run MobileGo
8. Connect your phone to your computer with a USB cable.
9. In MobileGo, click on the "One-Clock Root" button
You should be rooted quickly.
Not only that, it only installs SuperSU, and no malware.
10. Uninstall MobileGo if you don't want to keep it.

Would this work also for i337ucugoc4?
When you say "after many failures" - were there ever any negative consequences (something broken or bricking, etc.) from one of those failures - or just not getting root?

I don't know, but supposedly it works very well with most versions.
None of my failed attempts left any bad effects, this program worked first shot :good:
Does the phone get wiped in the process - or does everything stay intact / in place?

Last night I was bored and tried kingroot again on 5.1.1. It had been a while since I had tried, and it always said they were looking for a method. This time, it rooted successfully, but made the system very unstable. It caused Lag, and the keyboard stopped functioning, but root checker confirmed root. Temp root of course.

I stopped messing with KingRoot some time ago, just didn't seem worth my time considering you lose root after a reboot. Especially when certain apps require a reboot to take effect, such as Adaway, Xpose, and several others. I'm more-or-less fine without root, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't root my phone if I were to come across a stable and perm root solution.:cyclops::fingers-crossed:

I was on KK, and a friend of mine updated to 5.0.1. I said screw it and fully updated, not caring about root anymore. If this were more stable I would use it more. Temp root is annoying, but it survives hot reboots, which is sufficient for apps most of the time..

I tried to use the hot reboot feature of a rooted reboot app I have on my Tab 3 8.0 after installing something like Xpose, but the root didn't survive. The only real reason I tried to install Xpose was to use the Motorola hotspot app found in it. I'm currently using the paid version of FoxFi and it works great, it's just a four step activation compared to the one touch I got spoiled by on my S4. No biggie.
Over on AT&T note 4 thread someone said that they have temp root for 5.1.1

When I was on 4.4.4, I realized I could use the default file explorer to manage my SD card, meaning copy to, delete from, or anything else I needed to do with it. I'm currently on 5.1.1 now and have been for about a few weeks now. On occasion, when I install a big game, I'll get a prompt asking me if I want to move the app to my SD card, so no need for the SD card fix app. The only thing I don't like about the 5.1.1 update, though, is that the sidebar seems to pop out a bit slower than it did on 4.4.4, but that's to big a thing for me. Since I have the two apps I use the most that can be accessed from the sidebar on my Pie Control app, I can access them much quicker. Keep the dream of root alive, people. It'll come someday, hopefully. If not, at least we have cool phones to play with.
ok i can confirm that i obtained temporary root, uninstall all bloatware... so well its not perfect cuz system its very unstable but at least its a begining, now im gonna give a try to sd card fix and other stuff...
Ok SD card fixed worked... but i dont belive it will remain after reboot, so.... well at least i uninstall that Amazon stuff and Activation Agent "Not a Verizon card" stuff

I managed to get a keyboard to open by switching from the stock keyboard to kii keyboard. Have not tried any others. Is there a mod we can do for hotspot with temp root to use the native hotspot app? I'm so tired of using foxfi.
Is there a safe upgrade yet from 5.01 to 5.1.1 Thanks. I need to know in case I need to roll back to 5.01.
Thanks
Wasn't the sole purpose of the BPA1 update to "remove pre-installed Amazon apps"?

Only the appstore and its widget..
Most of bloatware remains like NFL, and even instagram, however after deleted most of it, I don't know which one.. Allow me to use Hotspot without foxfi
Unstable indded

Last night I was bored and tried kingroot again on 5.1.1. It had been a while since I had tried, and it always said they were looking for a method. This time, it rooted successfully, but made the system very unstable. It caused Lag, and the keyboard stopped functioning, but root checker confirmed root. Temp root of course.

I tried it out and it says it root is successful, but on my phone it just locks up after the rooting. I just wanted to uninstall the crap. Bummer.
Ok So Ive been checking the ATT note 4 forum and they have been suggesting that the root exploit may have been found through the Note 4 Stock keyboard. A suggestion also made was before you root change your keyboard to Swype mode then root and it appears to be more stable. Maybe someone could try install a third party keyboard before root and see if it makes a differwnce.

So I downloaded Swype and Nada. Just keeps locking up. Kingroot even updated a few min ago to 4.8.1. I thought yes! But still false hopes. Still locks up for me and can't do a darn thing. Can't wait until my contract is up I am so dumping Samsung and Verizon. I think I am gong back to a flip phone and a laptop. So tired of no root and feel like I got duped into this phone.
