To use cf autoroot . So whats the best way to root my device.

If you still have android 4.3 jelly bean then use root De la Vega. That version doesn't unlock the counter in Knox

Cf auto root is fine provided you accept that it will trigger Knox to 0x1.

I rooted my galaxy s4 after flashing 4.4.2 and I dont remember how I disabled knox over it and got my all root apps running. I used cf autoroot and odin.
So the procedure for note 3 will be same?

Rooting will allow root apps to work. If you want to remove knox then flash a custom rom.

As a relative newbie I find the above undecipherable. What is cf root? I just got a note 3 and none of the "one click" programs succeed. I got developer options visible and usb debugging turned on. What do I do next and where can I get cf root whatever it is. I still have twrp leftover from my s3. Any use?
Thanks for the help!

If you know what root does to your phone go for it. If not dont even try to root it may brick your phone.
Tell me which version do you have ill find instructions to root it for you.

CF-Autoroot :

Read the thread carefully before you continue, find the suitable file for your Android version. You never provide the details of your device.
Btw, your somehow "leftover" from your S3, are not usable anymore.
Different device need different methods of rooting, recovery, and ROMS. No other device tools can be used for cross device unless with a proper code porting.
Cheers.

SM-N900V VZW version of Note 3
VRUBMJE
Android 4.3 (yuck)
Thanks in advance and yes I rooted my S3 and got frustrated when they pushed 4.3 out. I had to re-root and I never could find a launcher I liked for it. I bricked my S 3 a few times finding my way around. From advice found here I succeeded in recovering several times. I have TRW on the phone but I'm assuming it won't be that useful.

[Knox][Warranty] Galaxy S4 I9500[India]

Hello Galaxy S4 users.
I recently bought a Galaxy S4 Black Edition.
After going through all Knox and warranty related posts I was not able to make up my mind to root.
So I called up the Samsung Customer Care for clarifying my doubt's.
The representative cleared that Knox has nothing to do with warranty(at least on India) and even if the counter increases to 1 warranty will not be lost.
Only if device status is unofficial then only we loose warranty and flashing stock firmware through Odin resets it to official(telling through personal experience with Tab 3 on 4.2.2)
I have no intention of using Knox and so want to root it.
Yet I would like to know if there is any method to root 4.4.2 without increasing the counter.
Thanks in advance.

You can use 'towelroot' by geohot for rooting 4.4.2 firmware without tripping KNOX.

You can try to ask on the official towelroot thread if anyone has successfully got it working on that firmware.. or instead, you can email geohot for help

[Q] Does Towelroot method work for T-Mobile GS5?

Tried towelroot on my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900T, running 5.0, but got the message "This phone isn't currently supported"

it can work
I rooted my Sm-900t using towelroot but you have to downgrade your kernel or bootloder I believe from NK2 (or whichever one fixed the vulnerability that made towelroot work) to NH5 or to a version earlier than august or july 2014 update using ODIN. There was a zip file with all of the components you need to downgrade, root, then upgrade back to the latest build. Search sm-g900t towelroot workaroud or something. This is for kitkat I dont know if jt would work on lollipop. Actually now that I think of it cf-autoroot-klte through Odin rooted my t mobile s 5 no problem. It did trip knox tho while the towelroot method above did not. I will look on my desktop to see if I still have the zip file and get back to you. if not I'm sure it's still on this website somewhere. good luck.

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?
I have root with cf-autoroot because that was the only solution I found for my tab 4

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

Temp root can achieved now

Google kingroot and download latest apk you'll get temporary root, it get lost once you restart.
Go to note 4 forums for further info.

It does not work with LP. Please read AT&T note 4 forum in general section look for root threads. If you want root, you have to downgrade to kk.

Im on stock lolipop , if i downgrade to stock 4.4.4 it shouldnt trip knox right ?

I don't really know if there is any AT&T note edge odin package to take it back to kk. Why don't you open a new thread in q&a asking about this. Note 4 owners have taken device back to kk from LP with no issues, but they do have odin package.

You can use odin to flash official firmware and it doesn't trip knox. You can download the firmware from sammobile, they have all the firmware's for AT&T and Verizon, Sprint, etc
Download the firmware from sammobile
Load the tar file in odin, in the PDA. Odin will check the file. Put your phone in download mode. Hit start, wait, your phone will flash the official software, boot up to a brand new kit kit... falsh kingroot 4.00 and have a nice day. This does not trip knox, I say again flashing official firmware does not trip knox. Only custom recovery flashed in odin trip knox. MAKE SURE THE FILE YOU DOWNLOAD FROM SAMMOBILE IS FOR YOUR PHONE!!! You can find your model number in your settings in the about section

It appears they will soon be done with the root for note 4 that wont trip knox.
Lets hope someone here can replicate it for note edge...

I was stupid and took the OTA to lollipop so now I either have to try to get it from Best Buy or wait for someone else to pull it

Something very strange just happened with my phone. I installed Kingroot, let it run and it rebooted at about 58% and said "Optimizing app 1 of 431", it ran through all of it and then came back up. I didn't notice anything. So I went and opened up King User, it said it couldn't root it. So I went to Kingroot (I believe), and there was a sad face with a tear. I backed out, went back and hit root (I believe), next thing I know, it reboot by itself, and it says "custom" with an unlocked lock on the front. Right now it's optimizing app x of 103. I'm waiting for it to finish to see what happens . . .
It's a Verizon phone, btw.
---------- Post added at 12:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 AM ----------
Once it was done with the 103 apps, I looked and King User was gone, just Kingroot. I reboot it again and it didn't say "custom" on it - I had another phone out and ready to take a picture, too. Oh well . . .

So, in theory, we could use the temp root to download/install ti backup and kill off the bloatware? Has anyone actually gotten the root to work on the VZW Note Edge?
