About to root N900W8 - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I'm about to root a pair of Canadian Note 3's that are already unlocked and working with Wind.
One is my wife's phone, running Android 4.4.2. Mine is still running 4.3. Is there a way to root them without tripping Knox?
What are the best ROM's for general business use, while maintaining all S-Pen features and apps. Is there a a Note 4 TW rom, or something similar? I'd rather have something more user friendly on my wife's phone after it's been rooted.
How do I install safestrap without rooting first? Just trying to root without tripping Knox.
Thanks in advance. :good:

Is it possible to root and flash a custom ROM on the N900V version of the Note 3?

Hey guys from the threads I've viewed, it looks like there is a lack of N900V support with the most popular rooting methods. Can someone give me a semi-detailed guide on how to flash X-Note and root my Verizon Note 3? I don't care about tripping Knox at this point. I just want a device that is mine.
Thanks guys.

Noob with some questions

Hey there everyone. I'm not new to Android but I am new to wanting to Root my device. I switched over to the dark side for about 6 months and had to get away so I traded my iphone 5c(junk) for an S4 on Verizon network. The issue at hand is that the previous owner who happened to work for Verizon updated the damn thing religiously. It's currently running 4.4.2 on the FNC5 band. From what I'm gathering there isn't a way to currently root this build? I've seen a tutorial on downgrading back to I believe MK2 which is 4.2.2?? Correct me if I'm wrong but I think I may have to try that method if at all possible. Or should I just wait.. and suffer with an un-rooted S4.... or just trade for an HTC one... lol
Thanks everyone and don't hurt me too much... I honestly have been trying to learn the past 2-3 days and have been slightly confused.. but it seems to be making more sense with Rooting and installing ROM's.
By the way...in Odin mode... the knox kernel lock says 0X0 as well as the knox warranty void.... odes this mean I can root the device normally!?!?!
Wait a minute, what is your model?
International or Verizon?
If you have Verizon s4, then you are in wrong section, go Verizon S4 section, you will get more help there.
For the information on the i9505 , which is very similar to Verizon s4, you can root on 4.4.2 but you will trigger the KNOX as the flag will set to 0x1, which means lost warranty

[Q] Knox Root & Custom ROM

I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505 - 16 GB White.
I also recently found that if I root it and install a custom ROM the knox will activate and I will lose my warranty....
Is there any way I can root it and install a custom ROM without activating the knox and losing the warranty?
I had a HTC Desire... but i'm totally newbie with this phone.

[Q] Knox / Root Questions

Hello all,
New Note 3 user but have rooted Droid1 and Nexus in the past. I am a little confused with the Note3 because I have read about tripping "knox" and do not want to void the warranty. Is knox tripped on the phone itself or do the results get sent somewhere else? Also, what is the best thread/guide to start for someone who wants to root the device for superuser only, not interested in customization. On version 4.4.2 - Verizon
Thanks!
