I have a rooted Note 3 AV 4.3 MN SM-N900W8, I rooted without issue with the CF autoroot, now I know there is the new 4.4 kitkat update but I can not auto update without unrooting, What I am looking for is recommendations from others as to what they did to update (either unrooting or rom install) and if your willing could you tell me what you did and include any links to ROMs you used etc,
Thanks so much

Hi, I am new to rooting the android. I tried looking around but couldn't find a clear guide.
I am looking on how to update my verizon Galaxy Note 3 that's on version 4.3 MJ7 (Hyperdrive RLS4 rom, model N900V) while preserving the root. Or would I have to loose root for a while and then re-root? Ultimately I am looking to install the newest Hyperdrive rom, but I believe I would have to update the stock firmware first?
Would be great to get some tips on how to do this. Thanks!

Hi, im wondering if anyone can help?
i have a rogers s5 900w8 on 4.4.2 rooted with towel root. i want to go to stock rogers 5.0 that just came out and root. im not concerned about tripping the counter if i can prevent that it would be nice.
my plan was to download the firmware and flash with odin since the ota will not work but i cant seem to find clear instructions on how to root 5.0.

Hi I'm on Telus g900w8 I had stock awhile ago. And then was on omega ROM after I rooted for months. I originally rooted using chainfires autoroot. I believe in superuser I just unrooted then flashed back to stock kitkat. Then once you download the the new version of stock and flash it will be back to normal. Then from there you just have to re root would be my guess.
I'm currently on Cyanogen mod 12 in the unified android development for the past month and its the Lollipop version. I prefer it over the Omega just because of lollipop seems smoother too. For our model you would use the gsm version (if you wanted to try it out). And I just used the stock kernel.
I had rooted my g900w8 about a month after I got it and tripped the Knox counter.
Hope this helps.

Install Custom Recovery Samsung Galaxy AT&T S4 SGH-I337 Ver 5.0.1 Non-Rooted. OK2
Hello, I Want to do some modifications to my Samsung Galaxy S4 and Have so many questions that I am not sure were to start? Yes I'm a noob but learning. I have a SGH-I337 phone that is unlocked so I use it for T-mobile. The phone came with KitKat 4.4.2 NB1 firmware but I managed to update it manually to the latest firmware OK2.
What I would like to do is install a custom recovery and install a clean non bloated Rom. Maybe a custom such as CyanogenMod? Questions: Is there any recovery software that will work on my present upgraded phone such as Safestrap, TWARP,PhilZ or CWM and in doing so I am guessing I need to root my phone first? When you root a phone does that unlock the boot loader? I have read articles saying you can only install custom recovery on the older firmware such as kitkat 4.4.2. or unless a update comes out. I also have read articles that I cannot downgrade and am not sure what that means as I have read articles that I can use Odin and reinstall my stock firmware NB1 is that true? Is there a way to downgrade your upgrades?
I see a lot of articles how to install recovery software but they do not always say what firmware version they are installing it to so I wont even try it. I am guessing-it is the older firmware 4.4.2.
I have read I can flash my kernel to an older Kernel such as NB1 then root it install a custom recovery then upgrade the kernel again? Not sure it I can upgrade or downgrade kernels that are for my phone?
I did manage to root my phone awhile back when it had kitkat 4.4.2 NB1 but had problems later on with my touch screen going crazy as if someone was in my phone so I brought it back to stock by using Odin and reinstalling NB1 firmware hoping to fix the problem. After installing stock firmware I decided to upgrade to lollipop 5.0.1 OB2 and that is were I am now. About my touch screen going crazy I have been reading it may be due to cheap USB chargers which I am using but that is another story.
Well any-help or leads would be appreciated.
Maybe if I wait long enough someone will come up with a custom ROM for my latest firmware as well as rooting it?
