Then please add on the OP that dis method wil trip knox trigger. Sum newbies might try this method on their new fones, without knowing.
So basically this method is for those people who dont care bout the warranty or those who hv completed their warranty.

Rooting is not the same as a carrier unlock. Your device will still be locked to ATT.

[Q] newbie question ! customer recovery for 4.4.2?

Hey guys,
I know this is kind of answered in alot of different places but nothing is guiding me to the correct files, just want to be safe and figured this was the best place to make sure i hit the bullseye.
Just updated to poland 4.4.2 kitkat and was looking to install a customer recovery so i could grab the latest version of xnote and a few other goodies. Could someone please guide me to a download section/link for cwm? or maybe twrp? which ever would work easiest

Yes reset it with Odin, you have n900 ? try Russian firmware, after successfully reset make a factory reset from recovery, than root and flash custom recovery

would twrp 2.6.3.7 work on 4.4?

Hi, interesting this is a very new model of Note 3.
Could you please help me by installing the app Phone INFO ★Samsung★ and post some screenshots here.
If it is possible try to enter the menu [Note 3] Fake Detector and see what does it say.
Download link in my signature.
Thank you.

Can someone please tell me how these two versions of the Note 3 are different?
What do I need to do to get a N9005 ROM to work on an N9007?

[Galaxy A8] Private service not working A800F

I managed to try root method using SpaceX kernel yesterday, and grant a root access, but I think I messed up on something. :crying:
I tried to freeze and delete some stock apps like Google Music and anything else I think I don't need. And of course before I delete them, I made a backup using Titanium. But then I realize my Private mode is not working whenever I tried to activate it. It said "Failed to enable Private Mode, try again", it is not working no matter how many times I tried. And then I realize maybe because of those apps I uninstalled earlier, to be precise I think it is "com.sec.knox(something)". When I try to restore it, Titanium said I don't have a backup of it, but it is on my backup history just without the backup file (see attachment). If I'm not mistaken it can be found in Play Store, called Samsung Security Policy Update, but since it is originally come with Samsung device it is not downloadable.
I'm still trying to figure out what the actual cause for this problem, and if anyone could help, I'd be so grateful if you can share Titanium file for those apps come with "com.sec.knox" (see attachment). Or if I have to restore Stock Firmware and go back, where can I find it and how to restore it?
Thanks in advance,
Best regards

You need to flash stock firmware in order to fix! Bcoz of the custom kernel, maybe you lost the private mode functionality.

Thanks, I got back to STOCK with the Indian latest Firmware and it works fine, the Private Mode is here again. I lost root access, but I still have all of my data (picture, apps, everything) even tho I flash back the Stock ROM. And no more Red Notification on Bootloader from SpaceX kernel. I only need to find a way to reset Knox Warranty Void value if I need (hopefully not) to bring my A8 for warranty claim. :fingers-crossed:

Triangle away may or maybe not work, actually its risky, if anything goes wrong, it will brick the device, it mostly works on Qualcomm Powered Samsung Device.

Flash stock firmware... it will deffinately come out of safe mode. However you will lose your data

There is a tool by dr.ketan that will bring out of safe mode:

I seen your post that your gonna try that app, which is fine.
But to answer your question, No, you do not need root to flash a stock firmware. You use a program Odin.
Now this all depends on if the 910A model has odin tar files available. I'm unsure of this.
If that app don't work and you need help with this, just let me know.

OK so I've looked into my options. And I guess I wanted to do the Odin way. The problem is the volume down button on my note 4 is not working properly. It does not want to engage. As I've looked into the Odin tutorials here on xda, it seems it is needed after flashing. Coz it is needed to wipe data cache once it goes stuck in bootloop.
Now for the stock firmware. Seems like I'm out of luck coz there is no available stock firmware on Samsung update and sammobile for my sm-n910a. Gosh don't know what to do now. I'm lost. I appreciate your help and advice. If you have any other ideas. Please do tell me.
