S pen - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently rooted my note 3 with the towelroot method and installed exposed framework and just a couple of modules. Today I went to use my pen and it made its noise coming out and brought up the menu on the screen but we'll not do anything beyond that. I've checked all the setting and they seem to be correct and none of the modules I've unstapled has anything to do with the pen that I know of. Anybody have any suggestions. Could it have been the root process or just me over looking something. Thanks for any help. Jesse

What do you mean by "modules I've unstapled"? Uninstalled? If the pen worked fine before rooting, then I'd go back to stock and start over again step by step. Stock - check, root - check, module uninstall - check...

uninstalled is what I meant. I ended up factory resetting and going through the root process first before reloading all the apps and it's working as it should now. Not sure what caused it and don't really care now that it's working again. Thanks anyway and I will try to work on my spelling some. Jesse

LBE on MH5?

Hello,
I updated a few days ago on I9505XXUDMH5 (DTB)...I know, that was stupid...anyway, I rooted the phone and most of the root Apps are working as usual. Except LBE. I am not able to use the active defense, which is the main point of LBE for me. Its saying that active defense loading failed.
It's the same behaviour like when Triangle deactivates root temporarily.
I'm using the latest Version 5.0.3720 German.
Is there any way to get it work?
Thanks

[Q] Is it possible to unroot CM11?

I would like to install CM11 but then unroot after I have it... but keep the functionality of CM11. Is this possible? I know someone is going to ask why.... so I will let you know... it is so that I can also attach to work via mobile iron (which prevents access if it detects root).
So... is this possible?
Never really tried that?? In TW you could just use supersu to unroot and (obviously) lose access to apps that require it. In AOSP the Superuser has a spot to disable it.......
that may work if its not active?
no idea just my 2 cents

Dont think you'll be able to since su is baked in! Even if you disable it I'm pretty sure root will be detected! I tried this with a direct TV app that would DL from my DVR to my phone and no matter what I tried it detected root! And even going to a tw ROM and unrooting it still detected the custom status iny phone! And that's a little direct TV app!

There is a xposed app you can use

Got rid of custom padlock on boot with wanam.

Thought I would share cuz it took me forever to figure it out but if you want to get rid of that custom padlock after root...you can use the Wanam Xposed Module. Just go into security hacks and check "fake system status" to make it"official" again. This might be old news but it took me forever to find something that worked.

Wanam does nothing on my note 3 your trick didn't work nor does any other feature this app offers. Strange

It does work, just did it this morning. Are you familiar with how to enable modules in the Xposed framework app (Go to modules and make sure that is is checked, then reboot.) Also for this particular module (And most that mess with boot stuff) a second reboot is required to see the changes.
Yep. .. That did it. .. Thanks

Are you on a custom ROM? I had it working on stock then flashed a ROM and it stopped; or should I say it worked intermittently . After this latest OTA I decided to remain stock and it's working fine again on every reboot ... Not saying that this is your issue, just thought I'd throw it out there.

I'm on stock MJE. Wanam is working now that I updated the module.

Lol. I only used custom roms to be able to theme certain things....with wanam it works best on stock which so far keeps the phone working at its best for me anyway. Xposed is awesome IMO.

Another great module for Xposed is called "Unicon". Lets you change your icons everywhere on your phone...even the lockscreen shortcuts and some settings icons. Uses icons from almost any launcher theme without having to change launchers.
???Sent from my precious Samsung Galaxy Note 3???
I've had this icon ever since I rooted this puppy. Never goes away. Even when I odin back to full stock firmware. Wanam only masks this. But it does not work for me, regardless. So how does one actually get this to go away other than odin stock flash? Cuz if I ever need to revert back for warranty, it's still gonna be there on my phone.

Phone freezing

Hey XDA community. I recently got a Galaxy Note 3 Verizon and have been having some issues. Randomly my phone will freeze then reboot. It's typically when playing games that are graphic intensive. I cleared the cache, done 2 factory reset, and uninstalled and reinstalled all apps giving me issues. It seems to be doing better now but it recently froze while browsing chrome. I was wondering if this was a known issue and how other people fixed it. I read somewhere that I should root and rom my phone since the factory firmware caused a problem with someone else. So any tips or thoughts would greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

I don't play alot of games. Just Subway Surfers and Temple Run so I won't be of much help there but if you're considering rooting and maybe flashing roms check this post out.

Ok so next question then. I am planning on maybe sending it to samsung for the factory warranty. I would like to try roming it first to see if that fixes it, but not if they are going to be able to tell and void the warranty. So is the reversal process possible on this phone so that they will never know it was rooted? Or is there a counter that they will be able to see?

If the previous owner rooted it properly he/she shouldn't have tripped knox. If you'd like to check put your phone in download mode and check. Power off phone then restart holding power, vol down and home. If you'd like to to restore and send it in then you'd use Odin to restore with the files here....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47400062&postcount=1 as long as you're on MJE use the MJE factory tar file. Make sure you use retail if you're on a retail phone or you'll possibly brick it. If you decide to upgrade use the NC2 method and if it continues to act up you can go to stock with the MJE version just to keep it simple.
Ok so I checked and it says Knox 0x0. I am assuming that means it hasn't been tripped. Now is there a root method that will avoid tripping Knox?

Good, if you're on NC4 use towel root.

Ok awesome. And using towel root properly won't trip Knox correct the? Also with these phones is it required to put the roms and kernels on an SD card or is it OK using the internal storage?

Put your rom zips on your external sd. No kernels yet but hopefully down the line. I rooted before towel root but everyone says it doesn't trip Knox.

Copy that thanks. I'm coming from the razr maxx HD and all I used was the internal memory on that so was checking to see if it was possible with this phone too

Mine was doing this brand new unrooted. Exchanged it for a new one and the problem went away. There are lemons out there. Take it back to the Verizon store before it's too late.
Yeah I got it from someone else and I'm going to have to do the factory warranty I believe. I appreciate the info.

Partial Galaxy root

Some time ago i rooted my s4 using cyanagen mod. The process ended with no problems. But, some apps that require root tell me it's not rooted and some do not. One that complains is ADB Manager.
Can anyone tell me what might have gone wrong and should I try to root again without restoring factory settings?
Thanks...
