[Q] Root de la Vega Vs. Kingo - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

[Q] Root De La Vega vs Pre-Rooted Stock Rom

I don't want to trip the Knox flag just yet so I'm starting with a safe method. So whats the difference between rooting via Root De La Vega or installing a Pre-Rooted stock ROM like the one from DjeMBeY? Both are Knox/warranty safe correct?
I'm on a N900W8
Thanks
The difference between the ROM and the Root de La Vega is really only that the Pre Rooted Rom WILL trip the Knox Warranty, the Root de la vega is the only root method that promises to not trip the Knox counter!

Thanks. I must have read it wrong. So like I thought, the only thing you can do and not void the warranty/tip Knox flag is root via Root de la vega. Flashing any ROM will trip the Knox flag.
Exactly, flashing any ROM, Recovery or Kernel will trip the Counter. I used Root de la Vega and it still tripped the counter, but I think it's pretty safe and I did something wrong

Actually there are two additional (and easier) methods to root without tripping the Knox counter:
Kingoapp 1.1.1
vroot
:good:
Can't find them on xda
Are they safe and for every rom?

There is a thread for Kingoapp in XDA. Do a search. Their site is www.kingoapp.com You'll be able to see which models of Note 3 are compatible.
vroot you'll have to google. It's a Chinese app and you can't post a link for it in XDA but there is some discussion about it in XDA.
Both have been used by folks in the Note 3 forums. So far so good and Knox = 0X0 although the status will be Custom. And I believe that can be fixed with Xposed just like in the RDLV root.
Both of these root methods are one button to root and one button to unroot. Basically make sure your phone is in Debug mode, plug it in and press the button.

[Q] Root de la Vega Root issue

So I have tried twice now to root my Verizon Note III and a Security Cache error. This forces me to re-install the factory ROM. I am using ODIN 3.09 and have the Drivers updated to 1.5.27.0.
What am I missing?
Thanks
if you took OTA to MJ7 and trying to root it with Root De La Vega(which is MI9), it will have same problem as you have.

Thanks...yeah...I took the OTA. I used the PIT to get it running again. Any root method for MJ7? I tried kingo and vroot with no luck.

[Q] Who has rooted MI9 with Root De La Vega (ODIN)

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.

Root Note 3

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.

Do you know which firmware you have on your phone?
If it's 4.3 get it here, 4.4.2 here.

Download the cf-auto root from the link I provided, extract files to a directory of choice, run odin, click pda buuton on odin then select cf-auto root file you just extracted and odin will take care of the rest and your phone will reboot.

Which 4.3? (try *#1234# ) - if you have < MJ3 you can still root with Universal Root De La Vega without triggering knox flag and losing warranty (for now).

If you are on MI7 then certainly go for Universal Root De La Vega (IMHO the safest is to first use for URDLV exactly the same version that you currently have) and then do a lot of reading around here on how you can upgrade with Mobile Odin Pro while keeping root and knox 0x0 :good:
