There is another solution than root de la vega. Follow this guide and you won't trip knox even if you root or install custom recovery/rom. You can also go back to 4.3 from 4.4.2 if kitkat is not your type.

But that guide requires to install a custom rom/recovery, and I want to stay with my current firmware/recovery, I just want to gain root access without tripping knox

Well... mi compilation number isN900W8UBUBMJ4 (as shown in the attached images a couple post ago). The firmware I used to patch with URDLV has the following details:
PDA: N900W8UBUBMJ4
CSC: N900W8TCEBMJ3
MODEM: N900W8UBUBMJ3
So, I asume that will trigger knox right? I ask a lot because here in Mexico, the note 3 has a price of $1,073 USD. As you can see, Telcel really overprice the phones, and I don't wanna lose warranty, but I wanna delete all the useless bloatware from Telcel.

The attached images on the first post says MHG which is why I said you can safely use urdlv. If it's MJ4, then using urdlv will trip knox. There is an app called Kingo that can root it but based on what I've read so far, it's hit or miss. Some had success rooting MJ4 without tripping Knox and then again some actually softbricked their phones and trip Knox. The guide that I linked you to will not trip Knox even if you install custom recovery and root your phone. The only caveat is you will have to update to 4.4.2. But should you need the warranty, you can always flash back to 4.3. Having said that, it's all up to you.

Well... I think then I will give it the big step... I considered the Klingo way, but as you said, is a coin toss, so I will take my chances and go with URDLV :good:

I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to rooting and Knox, what does with Knox 0x0 mean?

Does it work with the exynos version SMP 600 ?
thank you!
@VCore
how did you achieve this with the 605, my 605 has a DBT MJ2 firmware which I do not find on sammobile.

I'm not sure. In the Universal Root de la Vega thread it says that the Exynos version doesn't have the required hooks.
If we've already rooted with the first method and tripped knox, flashing the stock firmware and then rooting with De La Vega wouldn't set it back to 0x0, right?

If Knox indeed uses an efuse, the status is permanent. Maybe some developer will find a solution in the future. Time will tell.
@VCore
Thanks, you made my day, so I will have a look after work. Root without tripping the Knox fuse is in range!

I'm seriously thinking of just flashing the stock firmware and returning it, then waiting. The Best Buy employees I've come across either don't care or aren't aware of how to check tablets for root status, knox, etc. I don't think I will have a problem.
As far as I understood the thread linked by VCore, the Knox efuse is not tripped. Have a look at the thread linked in post 1 and VCore's statement about successful rooting of a 605 LTE model.

If the CSC matches, it should not trip Knox. On my 605 it worked without tripping Knox.

Can you please show me how to do in cmd to use Universal Root? Because I never use cmd before and I don't know how to use. I don't know what to write in cmd.
So, can you please write step by step procedure in details. I will very thanks to you. I really want to root my SM P605.
Thanks.

I guess the best way to get familiar with the windows command prompt is to watch some tutorials.
You can try to search "windows cmd" on YouTube. For details on how to use Universal Root de la Vega you should check the
Universal Root de la Vega thread.
I followed the instructions to the letter but not getting root:
I use this: URDLV csc C:\P605XXUAMJ2_P605DBTAMI3_P605XXUAMJ1_HOME.tar.md5 to generate a file of 17Mb
I then use this on csc in odin, it does it's thing and restart
I copy the files in the root of the tablet then restart
I delete the files above and restart
And nothing has happened, done twice already!
Am I missing something?

I think you have to use URDLV full because the patch is done in the system.img.
hi,
i got my n9005 (quad core, 32gb, sadly simlocked[provider]) today.
Yet i did not do anything to it, not even boot it.
I don't wanna screw anything up for later.
I want to make a complete backup of it and root it without tripping knox flag.
I read about auto root from chainfire but since that trips knox flag i cannot choose that.
Then I came across Root de la Vega from designgears and chainfire that does not trip knox flag
but as i understand it, it will not work on n9005 since i dont see my device being mentioned,
so what choice do i have now?
Can I power on the device now anyways just to ota or would that be bad (before a complete backup)?
Thanks
Please help me out here
You need to establish what firmware version you have first, take a look in the settings, what version off firmware do you have?

Austria (A1) 2013 September 4.3 N9005XXUBMI7 N9005VFGBMI1
Baseband N9005XXUBMI6
Even if i can root with URdlV 0.2, can i still remove provider simlock without tripping knox?
Somehow i get the impression i might be better off chainfireing it with autoroot after i flashed official unlocked german stock 4.3 over the current os. Triangleaway might come out in the next months so i can undo the knox trigger. Otherwise i might wait ages until i can use this phone...cos of the provider sim lock..
Thx
Do NOT update FW if you going to RDLV. MJ3 has new locked bootloader so you have to root first, then modify update FW.
Odinary carrier sim lock doesn't matter..
Read RDLV thread carefully again..
Sim lock has nothing to do with FW as long it's from same region and not special carrier locked bootloader

Ok, i will not update stock fw!
Why doesn't provider lock matter and what bootloader do i have? I read everyone writing mj3 blabla but where do u actually see what i got.
My stock fw was 4.3 when i got the phone and i never changed anything

Every Note 3 firmware is 4.3 until 4.4 kitkat arrives.
Find out your fw by settings/general/about phone, bottom line. If it has not .....MJ3, .....MJ6, ......MJ7 yet, your bootloader is not locked and you can RDLV.
If you're not gonna use the knox program, go for CF-autoroot instead.
Edit. Didn't see yor post above you said XXUBMI7. Do not update yet couse you have an early fw and can use RDLV
You clearly have some reading to do about firmwares and rooting etc..

Yea, its weird cos it says MI and nowhere mJ but everyone mentions it.
What about the provider lock?
Where can i read up on all that important info and esp. The No-No's?

?? ...MI7 is your current fw. Newer update fw's: ....MJ3-7, you can download from sammobile.com and flash manually by software "Odin" later after if you wish to root.
If not rooted, you can get these updates OTA.
Read the RDLV thread to learn about that rooting method first. Search around in Note 3 forums for answers.
Sim-lock has nothing to do with this at all. You can not unlock sim by rooting.
You can remove sim lock if you buy special dial code at some web sites. You give them your IMEI and pay them for the unlocking code. Thats all I know about that.

Hello
I've been trying to read up on different rootmethods and I was wondering if the "Root de la Vega" method works with android Stock android 4.3 and MJ7? I know that CF-auto root works with this version but that would trip my KNOX void. I've also been reading that some people got diffrent KNOX alerts after rooting their phone, does anybody know anything about this?

Or would the Cyanogenmod Installer be a better option for me? Dont really care about the knox void just want to get rid of the bloatware.
I can't find any reference to "root vega" by searching this subforum, so I'm asking.. please be gentle if this is covered elsewhere. I know URDLV is available for the Note 3 on sprint and can be used to gain root on a stock rom without tripping the Knox warranty bit, and am wondering if it's possible to use it to flash a rooted, stock MJA or MK2 ROM onto the Galaxy S4?
I have a completely stock phone, just bought it last week and foolishly applied the OTA update without checking the forums first so I now have the Knox bootloader and have a knox counter in download mode. I've read that you can flash a rooted stock firmware on a Sprint Note 3 without tripping the knox bit and want to know if anyone out there has successfully flashed a stock MJA or MK2 firmware using the URDLV method on a Sprint Samsung S4.
I know I have a snapdragon processor, and that URDLV doesn't work with the Exynos chip, so I'm hoping that it since it sounds like it'll work in theory, that a brave soul has attempted this and can share any info. I only want root, I'm fine manually uninstalling the crap I don't need and I'm okay with using the stock rom, I just want root and know that if i use CF-auto-root that i'll trip the counter, or if i use Vroot I'm potentially using a piece of software that might have malware or spyware in it (the cons to using VRoot are all over the forums).
Anyone out there who can share their insights or experience? Thanks!
I have a Note 3 (SM-N900W8 - Telus) that I have had for about 6 months. I have had an original Galaxy S and an S3 which were both rooted.
My phone updated to Lollipop so I had to forgo rooting since everything I read said I couldn't root 5.0 with the new bootloader.
I read about downgrading to Kitkat 4.4.2 so I could root and yesterday I took a chance and did it. I used the official 4.4.2 ROM from Sammobile
and using Odin, I flashed it and after a few tries, I got it to work. Now that I am back on Kitkat, I tried Kingroot (the APK) and it failed to root
my phone.
De La Vega now says it can not root 4.4.2, so my question is, is 4.4.2 rootable? I have read a lot about rooting and there are so many opinions
about what works and what doesn't that I wanted to post here to see if I could get a consensus about this. I know many people are rooted
on 4.4.2, but I just want to know the best way without tripping Knox.
Thanks,
Ian
Anyway, I used Kingo Root on my PC to root my Note 3 and it worked. Knox was not tripped and everything works properly.
