I know you want people to search for the answer before asking here in the forum. And I have searched for an answer but I haven´t found a straight and clear answer to my question.
I have a SGS4, completely stock.
I want to root it only to disable Samsung´s bloatware on the phone.
Mostly because of those damn update notifications even though I have disabled the apps in the built in Apps Manager.
I was thinking of rooting my phone with towelroot and then freeze those apps with Titanium Backup to get rid of them.
Then I´m gonna run Triangle Away to reset an eventual trigger of Knox and get rid of the triangle warning.
(Will the freezing procedure even trigger Knox?? )
I do NOT intend to flash any custom ROM.
Do I still have to make a NANDROID Backup?
And as I´m having their 2nd newest big phone and looking forward to the next official Android update, my most imortant question is:
Will I be able to update OTA or in KIES if I´ve rooted and used Triangle Away?
Is the only thing I have to do, to unfreeze the apps I´ve frozen in Titanium Backup, run Triangle Away and then unroot in Superuser?

Vet att ni vill man söker efter svaret i tidigare trådar och tro mig, jag har sökt. Men kan inte hitta något klart svar på min fråga.
Har en SGS4 helt stock.
Jag vill roota enbart för att disabla Samsungs bloatware på telefonen.
Mest för att det är en satans plåga att få upp notiser om uppdateringar till dessa appar trots att jag avaktiverat dem i programhanteraren.
Tänkte att jag rootar med towelroot och sedan fryser dessa appar med Titanium Backup så jag slipper dem.
Tänkte sedan köra Triangle Away för att nolla ev triggning av Knox och få bort ev varningar.
Jag ska alltså INTE flasha någon ny ROM.
Behöver jag ändå ta NANDROID Backup?
Och eftersom jag sitter med deras näst senaste flaggskepp och ser fram emot nästa officiella uppdatering av Android, är min absolut viktigaste fråga:
Kommer jag att kunna uppdatera OTA eller via KIES om jag rootat och använt Triangle Away?
Är det bara att unfreeza de appar jag fryst med Titanium, köra Triangle away vid behov och sedan unroota via Superuser?

I've tried it.
Successfully rooted my Galaxy S4 with towelroot.
Installed superSU v 2.02 by Chain fire from his website as Play Store doesn't have the most recent version. Checked root with Root Checker Basic. Got root!
Installed Titanium Backup and bought Pro version.
Have tried freezing Samsung ChatOn so far.
Checked phone status and Knox is NOT triggered! Which was my biggest concern.
Have not flashed any ROMs or anything else, and do not intend to either.
Guess I'll just have to wait and see what happens when next Android update gets out!

Go to settings, your device and check for the updates. The answer will be: Yes, there is an update, no there isn't an update yet or Your phone isn't official, you wont receive any updates. The last one is it xD
Nope.
In phone settings, in status, it says Phone Status: Official
And when checking for updates it connects to the server and checks. Then says the aren't any updates. But that's because there aren't any updates available. Was already running the latest update (4.4.2) for my phone before rooting.

So you will receive the updates, no problem bro
Great to hear
Hopefully freezing apps with titanium won't change my phone status.
But I've already frozen the one that nagged me. Samsung ChatOn and everything's fine after that procedure.

Hi,
I originally had 3.1 on my device with the A500 OTA firmware, it was rooted originally. I then updated to the 7.something 3.2 OTA for the A500. I wanted to downgrade so I tried installing a lower one using the sd card method. Well needless to say it didn't take and the tablet wouldn't boot. So I tried basically all of the roms on the ROM list page. None of them worked except the A501 3.2 version 4.something. This one I can't root either. I'm guessing it isn't possible get root at this point until a root hack becomes available to install clockworkmod?
Also will running a lower version number system for the A501 cause problems on the A500?
Thanks in advance!
If you look at the ROM list page there's now a couple of 3.2 updates for the A500, if you flash one of those you'll at least be back on the correct firmware for your device. Unfortunately I have yet to find any way to either downgrade to 3.1 or to get root on 3.2 ... so for now I think you're stuck on 3.2 without root.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that someone with better knowledge of such things than I do will have a solution for 3.2 root sometime soon!

Those instructions do not work for downgrading from 3.2 to 3.1 the tablet will be left un-bootable.
You can however use those instructions to upgrade to 3.2 from 3.1
solution
vas sur ce lien, c'est la seule solution pour le moment je crois! :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276227
Merci beaucoup. j'espere que ca functionne avec mon a500.
The 3.2 OTA update uses a different boot loader. If you perform the Acer update, you are stuck and loose root until someone cracks the new boot loader. Who knows how long that will be, but hopefully soon. Once you get root access back, install clockworks and do a full backup before you ever do another update so you can always restore your old ROM if something like that happens again.
It happened to dozens of people on this Forum. I am Glad I read about it before it happened to me. I upgraded to 3.2 by flashing Taboonay 2.1 which used a different boot loader.
Good luck. I hope they crack it soon.
Edit: Actually, someone started a post with instructions on downgrading and getting root back if you already did the OTA update to 3.2. Look at the thread "Root your A500 after 3.2 OTA update and losing root.."
The link provided ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276227 ) is successful in downgrading. Thanks once again.
You might want to check this method first. It uses an official Acer 3.0.1 update with an earlier bootloader (compatible with CWM/itsmagic), that you can root.
This is likely less destructive than rebuilding the ROM from scratch using nvflash.
hi guys
Recently like today in turn on my Iconia and guess what? updates arrive but i have a question i have 3.1 rooted but i want to know what its the diference beteewn each and other... if had root? changes? or if i have to wait to do the update??
sorry for my bad english!!
Don't apologize about your English.
Spanish is now the # 1 language in the USA and you are a citizen.
I wish I knew Spanish as well as you know English.
Thanks--
Anyone can help?
As far as I understand it, the 3.2 update is mostly under the hood improvements, with the exception of the resizing feature for those apps that aren't displayed full screen. I would think hard about updating though since we don't have root for the 3.2 yet. I haven't received the update here in the states yet so I haven't had to decide. I'm hoping that by the time I get the ota update someone has figured out how to root 3.2. Hope that helps.

If you do this update you will need to root first, and you will lose root on 3.2.
Still no root for 3.2.
You need to root it first, install Clockwork Mod Recovery, and install a custom rom based on the acer 3.2 update. Im currently running one that's basically the stock rom with root, and works well. Y yo tambn soy de Puerto Rico, so te puedes comunicar en confianza.

There's something strange with some batch of Polish Notes - you are not the first who has KOR instead of XEO. I've seen quite a few similar cases both on XDA and on Polish forums. I wonder if these phones came through the official channel.
after update samsung software/apps don't work
after rooting again factory reset wip cache etc. ( thx for the tips) samsung account /s note , al the samsung apps are not working
thx samsung ( dit the factory update on a rooted , normal firmware ,no custom..)
Got the Dutch update as well today (LA6), my note wasn't rooted, no problems with S Memo, or other stuff. All seems to be working well.
after update apps samsung don't work anymore
after a power off , the note is rebooting againg againg , think he realy dead ( two weeks old) bye bye for 6 weeks.......( where is my Dell Streak).
I've got the mentioned update some days ago (NLD). All went well, no problems met.
Accept one thing:
I can't root my Note with SuperOneClick or with DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.

Don't blame Samsung on this!!!
You rooted your device, so it's your own responsebility; I'm sure, when you had the original firmware on your device, you didn't have these problems!
don't blame om samsung
why not ? , unrooted the phone ! , have de orginal firmware do the update , and after that he work anymore , so blame .... i think that the internal memory of the phone is broken , why when im stalling the software from the android market , he was saying out of memory . this morning interne flash something like that warning en then reboot reboot reboot.... it is not the software but internal default.
en that after 12 days !!.
But we shall see , how the service is from samsung.
But blaming me for this , no way.
( but im missing the note every minute) dell streak was nice, but samsung note ( only design en missing a case like defender otter) is greate.!

Is it DE only or european one?
I mean, if this is the wifi only version shouldn't be the european multilanguage one?
Or sony makes IT, DE, UK and so?

Each country has an individual firmware. Most noticeable change is on setup the language is default to that country.
There may also be some variations within the remote control app.

Actually since I can choose my language "Italian" from the rom it works out of the box, I can easily root it, but I can't update then to 370, it downloads the update, start to apply then after a few seconds reboot and gave errore message (generico:impossible to update).
If I'll do that with kyes I'm pretty sure it will destory the root.
I'm not a "root maniac", but I would like to restore apps+apps data from my S4 to Xperia Tablet Z as done with the new nexus, and I need root for that.
AdAway would be nice to use too...
Well, I'll try to find if it's a root problem or DE rom on IT tablet problem, but I'm pretty sure that the tablet is downloading the right update, so maybe it's the root stuff that cause troubles

Ok I managed to unbrick my s7 verizon flashed it to sprint with the fused6 binary 5 bullshitt bootlooping errors failing in every way possible Z3x pro gold even fails to re part pit file just grabbed fresh from the phone very very sneaky of the coders well this is the fix reflash herolite recovery and it will allow recovery to boot after failing n looping endlessly to the update install screen then a yellow box comes up so u toggle vol n home pushes it to recovery even after factory i reset it bootloops so do all that then also do a key test down a bit lower in the recovery menu that installs all lost files and when u see Samsung screen it reboots after that dreadful oh no I bricked it ****kkk. Also its sprint but i have phone calls txt no data though. Can't wait for Oreo to hopefully fix this back to verizon at least I had data as well with verizon I'm Optus Auzzzie Aussie It.
Let me know if this helps
Is it possible to root on this build yet?? I'm looking to root my stock S7 (G930P) on G930PVPU6BRD2. Could someone point me in the right direction please?
Or is it not possible to root on the new bootloader?
Hey thanks for the file. I was so naive and tried to downgrade it using the TMB U rom variant but got stuck in a boot loop. hopefully i can make it work again with this rom.
Thanks.
