Root Note 3

Is there any way to root Note 3?

Not yet!

Doh, I was just wondering the same thing.

I was wondering if there was a way to root it yet after seeing and 3-4 post in the general section, of people saying they will root their phones later in the day. I haven't found any way to root it yet.

Install cwm recovery and flash supersu.zip in recovery and you have a rooted note3.

Any suggestions/ideas for the N9000 model? The CWM recovery is for 9005.

I would wait till the devs figure out the Knox locks and boot loader counter.

Lol its not that easy. I don't think they got around the boot loader yet

I'm also waiting for root but first of all the Knox counter reset is the most important thing.

There is not gonna be a Knox reset......who cares that's what insurance is for and there is not word whether a Knox trip voids the actual device warranty

it is not only warranty. for people who are using the phone in persona/business scenario - KNOX is very good solution.
many companies are using iphones just because of this security issue.
and now Samsung will be able to be "corporate" supplier of devices due to KNOX.

I found the Odin and instructions for n9005 recovery Image.i have the n9000 international version. Odin finished and I see the superuser app, but no SU or root.
do I need to wait or do something different?

There is a chainfire zip you have to flash after you flash the recovery through odin. Check the Android development section and there is a guide for a rooted rom. He has a link to the zip. Please read that thread first. I will not have my note 3 till the 12th so I haven't done it yet.

Just a few questions for you b0Ne83:
1) Apparently you used the N9006 application?
2) Does this trip the knox counter?
3) And, does it erase all your data after rooting?
Thanks bro!

Cool this is awesome

How do I check to see if knox counter is tripped ?

I've rooted a lot of devices and this was by far the easiest. Nothing to it really. Just had to figure out how to put the note 3 in debugging mode (which you press about phone 7 times or something like that )

You shutdown your phone and hold home volume down and power till you are in download mode, hit ok which I think is vol up. It tells you. Then it shows the phonestatus.

Ok just got some new info
It does say custom under samsung
However under knox is reads "0x0"
Is that what yours reads ?

No it does not.

so no factory reset or data wipe needed?

That is GREAT news that the knox counter is not tripped as Samsung and the amazing Chainfire state it is totally NOT reversible. Which means your phone's warranty is void and you won't be able to upgrade to any future official update ever again. Here's a link to a good article on it.
http://omegadroid.co/wanted-knox-void-warranty-0x1/
As for mine it reads official not custom as my phone is still stock. I'm treading lightly as you will understand if you click my link and read the short article...

That is correct. No wiping data or factory reset needed. This just gives you root permission. Super user, Titanium backup, and addaway all running smoothly.
Easy as one click

So are you saying if I use this method that if there is an OTA update....I will be unable to get the update?

i'm sorry, i want to ask something.
how to root galaxy s4 without tripped knox?
i'm use s4 i9500 I9500DXUEMJ5
thanks for reply

Root
You can't root your phone I9500DXUEMJ5 without tripped knox.
In fact, there is only one solution : use Kingo root app.
But... XDA does not approve this app because it seems send data to China when you try to root your phone with this tool.
Sorry for my english, I hope you understand what I wanted to say.

Yes that will trip knox.

I don't exactly know about trip knox
It's void waranty only or are there more to know about?

Yes it only voids your warranty that's all. You could of tried towelroot v3 to root by opening the app and tapping at the top where it says towelroot v3 three times then put this number in 1337 0 1 7380 4 0 but if you aren't worried about warranty CF-Autoroot works just fine.

yes I have tried with towelroot v3. First time works great but after update it doesn't work for me.
I have tap 3 times and changed also to different codes. I have read there are 3 different codes.
It does not matter if its voids warranty for now, because all works fine for me.
Is there a solution to unroot, to get warranty or can I never use my waranty because I root the tab 4 with cf-autoroot?

Once you trip knox you can't go back and undo it. Nobody has figured out a way to reset it yet.

I'm more interested in completely removing knox software, I know the related system apps to remove in TiBu and searched and deleted anything "knox" in a root-enabled browser, but I also noticed knox coming up in the build.prop, specifically the following lines:
Code:
ro.build.knox.container=
persist.sys.storage_preload=1
ro.securestorage.knox=true
ro.config.knox=1
Is it worth changing any of these lines or am I blundering my way towards bricking my device?

I wouldn't recommend for you to remove ANY lines of code that may or may not brick your device
You could always just re-flash a ROM or make a backup with TWRP

Hello everyone,

i have not rooted my device, and recently installed philz touch recovery 6 on my device using odin but it flagged my knox counter to to 0x1.
That means my warranty is lost. can anyone help me?
I am frequently getting this error, that unauthorized actions has been detected.
Please anyone consider this.. Thanks.

First of all, I believe, most of the people using XDA forums possess enough eyesight to view things in normal font. (and if not, there are numerous tools available to help them read or even listen to what is written). So you don't need to make your writing so big and bold that looks harsh. If you want to emphasize, you can use emoticons/smilies (that is what they are meant for). I don't want to be rude but to keep this platform clean and nice is OUR responsibility. Hope you don't mind.
As for as your problem, I think you have to flash back the stock recovery and (even the stock rom if the problem persists). Do some more research before taking any step or wait for solutions from experts. I believe guys will see your post soon
Best of luck :good:

Ohhhh hmm i understood. Waiting for reply. Thank you

Rooting or Installing Custom Recovery = Knox 0x1. There's nothing you can do about it. You cannot change it back to 0x0. It is permanent. No more warranty.
For the error you need to disable knox. Read here on how to disable knox.

Thanks for valueable reply. i tried that non rooted method. But the problem still persists.
So now i lost my warranty.... then should i root my device or not. I think it doesnt matter... right ?

As much as I know for now, the knox once tripped is impossible to recover. May be there is some hardware switch thing associated with it. Anyhow, I think it does not make much difference because knox can only be a problem if you ever want to reclaim your warranty or re-sale the device. In my case, I am 99% sure that the device is working perfect to my needs and I don't have to claim the warranty or resale it within the warranty period. So if you don't have to claim warranty and also you don't want to re-sale, tripped knox is nothing to worry about
best of luck :good:
