Model no SGP521
Is this working on the Verizon model?
Unroot possible?
After using this method, is it possible to unroot?
In case the tablet needs to be sent back to Sony, they won't touch it if they see root enabled.
How to unroot it? n00b here.

On the Z phones a simple factory reset by the pc companion would do fine in removing anything that could harm the warranty
Works perfectly on a SPG512 with 17.1.1.A.0.402 :highfive:

I rooted my Verizon variant with this method and all seems to work ok, had to run it twice however. Installed duel recovery after and making a backup now. All seems to work ok so far. Only thing I've mainly tried is root explorer and it gained SU rights and tested renaming an apk in the system files and worked fine.

That's great news. I mostly want to just debloat. With dual recovery, can we install ROMs should they ever become available?

Okay I have root I used the v10 easy root. Do I just flash dual recovery even though it clearly stats an unlocked bootloader is needed? I don't flash files if I am not sure of their compatibility. Thanks.

I need help with rooting my Galaxy Note 3. I've never rooted a phone before so I am new to this. I've read some of the posts and understand a bit, but they're all confusing as there are quiet a few posts out there on how to root. I'd like to get some help on which correct tools and stuff I would need to download to help me root my phone. Preferably I would like to stick to stock ROM, or a custom ROM closest to stock without the Samsung bloatware. My phone model is the SM-N900W8, running on KitKat 4.4.2, with a baseband version of N900W8VLUCNB7, and Kernal 3.4.0-859721.

Nothing to do.
You can do factory reset no problem but you might loose root, but just repeat the process in case you do loose root. Be warned though, although quite a lot of people rooted their N900W8 without tripping root, can't exactly say it will be the same for everybody, it might trip it.

If you intend to stay on stock firmware and not flash a rom, then you don't need one. But if you flash a rom made for a N9005, then you will need a kernel made for N900W8/Tmobile in order to make NFC, BT and Wifi work ( also need a patch for the said sensors/signal ).

It will not change anything except root your phone. I know it says it's for N9005 but quite a lot of people even with different phone models have tried it and it worked and that's including me who has a N900W8 from Rogers.

Hi,
Did try to flash this...
Nothing to do : only a black screen on reboot.
Probably because I use the DoomLord Kernel and not DualRecovery...

As now its already 2 am here, ill look into it tomorrow when im at work.
Thanks for sharing that information.
doesn't work completely. Su Binary semi-working (root access granted, but titanium for example doesn't show user apps. also nut recovery cannot be installed, as the installer doesn't know kingroot su.) and building up an internet connection to china.

You can just root using the KingRoot payload and then replace kingroot with supersu, since you have writeaccess to system.
I'd installed King Root on a 23.1.A.0.726 - got root with it, installed dualrecovery, falshed the same FW as prerooted, removed king root and use now supersu
Very easy and short way.

I had rooted the I9192DDUCNL1 firmware available for India with KingRoot. Not sure about I9192DDUCOF2.
To all who managed to root this phone, did anyone manage to flash anything on it (custom recovery, custom ROM) or are you still running the stock firmware?
To anyone using safestrap, how is that working out, regarding speed, stability etc?
