I tried towelroot and it didn't work. I want to root so I can write to external SD. The gallery app is SO slow on the device and quickpic is much much faster. But I unfortunately can't delete or move pictures cause of the restriction. There's an app on the store that will fix it, but I need root.
I have a sprint note 3, and I'm on 4.4.4

i downloaded the chainfire cf auto root file for odin and 4.4.4 sprint. But it said if i have a locked bootloader it will brick my device. I think my bootloader is locked.

There are only some rooting methods available for Note 3: URDLV, CF-Auto root and Towelroot.
Did you try Towelroot?

how i can to root my N900V ?
N900VVRUBMJE
Android 4.3
and i use with "Cellcom" Sim card and I have a message - "Non-Verizon SIM"
how can i hide this ?
I used kingo root for mje. There is a thread in the genral section titled "All things root......" that has a lot of information about rooting the VZW version of the note 3. I do not know about your second question though.

Mike...You got the latest OTA and were still able to root?
No, actually I didn't get mje ota. It kept failing for some reason. I had to install it with odin. But yes I was able to root mje. Forgive me its been a while since I rooted it, but I do remember that it would not work with the stock cord. I had to use the cord from my droid 4. I tried several before it would register.

Help with Rooting Note 3
Looking for some help, trying to root my brand new Note 3 on Verizon and not having any luck.
Things I have tried.
Kingo multiple computers fails every time either unstable connection or bad script
I don't have antivirus on my Windows 7 X64 machine nor on my Windows 8.1 machine.
I have tried 2 different cables. one from my HTC and one from my Samsung note 3 (not using USB 3.0)
rebooted device, double, tripled checked that USB debug, and allow unknown sources are checked
universal de la vega.. fails and soft bricks my phone and I have to recover.
Cf-root haven't tried as I can't find the tar file for my Verizon phone.
Does anyone have any insight on were to look.
Can I flash a rom that is already rooted using Odin?
At this point I need WiFi tether for work or I will lose my mind. and could care less about Knox.
Thanks for any and all help:crying:

Try Vroot it should work. Just replace the Chinese superuser with Chainfires supersu when you are rooted.You can not flash a rooted rom through Odin it will brick your phone because the signature will fail.

Cool, I forgot to tell you that it's safe to uninstall the other Chinese app that gets installed. I have no idea what it is but it can go. I've used both Kingo and Vroot with no problems with the phone. Enjoy root, flash safestrap v1.65 and stary enjoying the ROMs http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-note-3/development . If you need help with safestrap go to the link 4 posts up AZbiker wrote up.

I want to install a full Hebrew, You might know how to do it?
And how can I install CWM? I'm trying to do this in ODIN failed
For Hebrew look up language enabler in the play store I think it may be what you want. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wanam As for CWIM that won't work on our phones because of the locked bootloader. Our only option is to root with Kingo or Vroot and then install safestrap witch works great. There is a link about six posts back for all the info you may need for that

The bootloader will not be open but with vroot and safestrap you will have root and be able to install ROMs from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-note-3/development
As for the bootloader being unlocked your guess is as good as mine to if and when it will happen. With safestrap atleast we can install some ROMs. Enjoy.
Updated to 4.4.2 using the ODIN files from the Samsung Website. To get root back (I originally used CF-Auto Root), do I use the same method?

Which model do you have? If Towel root doesn`t work there is only CF Auto Root atm, look here for the correct file http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/. This does trip KNOX though.

I tried to root SM-G900F international version using "1337 0 1 7380 4 0" - just hanged and didn't work though. Not comfy rooting tripping the knox so will probably leave it!
I just got the 900V (Verizon) update which caused me to lose root. I tried towelroot v3 (with the "new samsung" settings) and still says phone not supported. Anybody with a verizon phone and the new update gotten their phone to root again? If so, can you post the settings you ended up entering after clickk=ing 3 times on the welcome to towelroot v3 text?

Try to downgrade to an earlier rom with Odin and Towelroot should work again or look in the S5 Verizon forum for more tips.

I have the same issue, but how would one go about finding the launch kernel for the S5?
EDIT: spent some more time digging around on the web and I found that sammobile has all the S5 firmware you need to reflash back to stock April version.

Try going to the general Verizon thread for the S5. There are a number of posts regarding rooting your S5 (or re-rooting): http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general

Not if you untick auto reboot in Odin, so after the flash pull the battery and you wait 15 seconds and boot into recovery and data factory reset and reboot. Did it myself mate from NG2 to NE2
Can somebody tell me, does stay official version firmware on Phone info window and on stock CWM window (knox counter 0x0) after root with towelroot ?
Thanks forwarding on answer.

This is because your phone isn't supported by TowelRoot yet as it is a new device. But don't worry, you can definitely try the CF Auto Root.

samsung and towelroot
Hey, I'm a relatively new android user, and I'm dying to root my Samsung S5 SM G900F, but it's proving to be harder than I expected.
I tried the towelroot application but it says that my phone is not supported, even though others have seemed to do this easily. Any suggestions? I use a Mac Computer as well, which doesn't make it any easier....

Only NCG firmware can be rooted ( downgrade via Odin). Run towelroot, install SuperSU (update its binaries and then reboot your phone), install busybox, then install safestrap. After all that you can use Odin to get to the firmware you want to run and keep root.
Thanks for the response where do i get those files for downgrade thanks

See down in the notes #4 for unrooted phones.
Root with towelroot, install SuperSU from play store, update the binaries (normal method), reboot phone, download busybox from play store and install. Then you can install safestrap.
i download everything but when i connect my s5 to my pc and open odin it dosnt say that is added odin is not reading my device

Hi guys I would like to make the root on my samsung Note 3 SM-N9005 with lollipop version 5.0 official. Can I use CF-AutoRoot to do precisely the root ??

You can take a look this video for avoid problems and to root it perfectly.
* The last TWRP update for your device is this ONE. Replace this to the video one.
but I can do it with CF-AutoRoot?
As far as I know CF Auto root works. But that's not how I recommend to root. Flash a custom recovery, TWRP for example, then flash the SuperSU zip from there, done. Google about both stuffs.
Can I install the recovery even without the root?
