Root is not necessary as many custom rom come with pre-rooted.
The sequence should be:
1- Flash a RECOVERY
2- Flash a CUSTOM ROM
3- ROOT my phone (optional, depending on ROM)
4- and lastly Flash a KERNEL

THANK YOU! This helps a lot..
Ahmm can I ask one more question..
Is it okay if ill replace the kernel of a custom rom into a different kernel?
Ex. I have this ROM(gummyrom) which has it's own Kernel, then i downloaded 'Lean Kernel' is it okay just to replace the kernel of 'GummyRom' into 'Lean Kernel'?

Sorry I cannot answer to this question.
You should consult in the supporting thread of the specific rom/kernel.

Hi, I have some question about flashing a custom kernel (+Franco kernel):
1. Let's say I have Franco Kernel and a new version comes out, do I need to flash it again or I can use the app to flash it? Also, do I need to wipe something before I flash?
2. If I switch to another kernel from Franco, what exactly do I have to do? Just wipe cache+dalvik and re-flash my rom?
3. Will I have to re-flash the kernel after each rom update?
Thanks!
Hi I'm not sure about #1 because I don't use Franco's app, but 2) Sometimes you can just flash a new kernel over the old one. Personally I prefer to dirty flash my ROM, then flash my choice of kernel. 3) You'll need to flash the kernel after a ROM update. The ROM is compiled with it's own kernel.

So I need to dirty flash my ROM (=wipe cache+dalvik & flash) then install a new kernel? Thanks.
Still need an answer to Q1 though
I use CM 10.1 and just flash the new Franco kernel ZIP over the old one and it's been fine...

1. When a new version comes out all you have to do is flash the new version on top of the old one. You can simply download it from the app and let it do a auto-flash. No need to wipe anything.
2. It depends. Some kernels will need you to flash the stock kernel first then flash the custom kernel you want to you. Ex. Faux kernel. Don't forget to read the first post of every thread to look for installation instructions.
3. Yes, you will need to reflash the kernel after a rom is flashed. Make sure to flash the kernel last.

1. Does the app need a special recovery to work? I have a TWRP recovery..
2. What do you mean by stock kernel? And is it correct that Franco is the only kernel that I need to re-flash my ROM to switch to another kernel because it changes something in the ramdisk? If so, do I just need to do a dirty flash?
Thanks.

1. No special recovery needed. I too use TWRP.
2. Nothing special need be done to flash to Franco. Going from Franco to another kernel it is easiest to reflash your ROM. You are correct about the ramdisk.

2. So going from Franco to another kernel - just dirty flash without a factory reset?
Thank you very much.

1. Having a recovery is good. When you download a new kernel there is an option to let it do a auto-flash and it'll flash it you. The phone will reboot itself when it's done.
2. Some custom kernels need to flash the stock kernel, (the original factory kernel that it's shipped in) if you're going to switch to another custom kernel like Faux's kernel. So when the next time you want to make a switch to another kernel, please make sure to read the first post of the thread to look for instructions to install the kernel. If you're updating to a new rom or switching to a new rom, you will need to flash whichever custom kernel you were using on top of the updated/new rom. When you flash a new rom, it is recommended to do a full wipe to avoid issues. After every rom flash you need to flash the kernel.

No. no. You don't need to do a factory reset. I don't know how many times I'm going to say this but read my answers to all of your questions again. (Don't mean to sound like a jerk or anything)

I think that's what he was saying/asking... That's correct, no need to factory reset.
HI
Somebody here can help me , i want to remove twrp ,and get back my stock recovery.How do i do that?
And if i flash the stock rom does it come with the kernel .
Flash the stock ROM, update.
This will return you to stock recovery and stock kernel, and if you are on the stock ROM now (not a custom ROM) you will not have to do a full wipe. SO you can keep your apps/settings/data
Thats easy thanks

Yes, it is quite easy.
Do your homework though, because you can just as easily brick your phone.

If you're looking at flashing only the kernel, you might check out this post. Be careful with this, though - if you do this method wrong, it is possible to hard-brick your device. Also, it's for the AT&T S4 only.

Just flash. All custom ROMs have root.
Btw, you need a custom recovery to flash a ROM (like TWRP, CWM)

Not necessarily. You can flash a custom recovery through Odin and not root it at all and then just install a already rooted ROM.

CWM is always reliable. Some prefer TWRP. I'm using Philz Touch. It depends on your preferences. CWM is the most stable.
Hey guys i just bought this international exynos note 3 (N900) and i have some questions about it ;
1. I want to install all the roms kernels and mods i could find but in order to do that (I'm %100 stock btw) ,do i need to first unlock the device ( i dont know how i couldnt find it), then root it with CF- Auto root( my warranty is over so i dont need to think about KNOX i think??) Then use the dd method to flash a recovery and flash whatever i want. Am i right about the things i said on all above ? Is there an easier way to do it ?
2. Do KNOX ever prevents me from flashing things in ODIN if something gets triggered ?
3. If i am not right about the first question starting from %100 stock what do i need to do to get this baby rockin ? I'm thinking about flashing a stock lollipop rom with a custom kernel and root ofc. Any suggestions ?
4. Do we need to flash modems from odin ? Because when reading the AryaMods thread i saw something about updating the modem. I'm on 4.4.2 right now. Can we flash modems or even kernels from recovery ?
Thanks already!!

There is no much of roms to choose for this one. 9005 is most supported here.
Root using cf auto root.
Make back up of ta partion/imei.
Flash recovery with odin. Then flash roms in twrp (watch the ere about how to use twrp or YT).
flash stock roms using odin.
Can't i just flash recovery from odin then flash a custom rom after that without rooting ? Thanks!

If you are going to flash roms based on lollipop, update your phone to latest stock rom for your model using odin so you get latest bootloader.
Dude, you need root access to access system and write to it. Don't custom roms require root, if you take a look? (don't answer to this [emoji61] )
If you want that way, flash twrp with ? odin. Then flash supersu for your model using twrp. That way too you get root. Then flash roms after (read rom instructions).
Ask if all wondering. ?

No my question was; not rooting the device in the first place before flashing the recovery and the rom. The roms already comes with the root in it. So just to be clear first upgrade the base to lollipop from odin then flash a recovery and lastly flash a lollipop rom. Would this be your sequence when you just bought a new note 3 ?

Flash latest firmware then custom recovery then flash the custom rom of your choice. No need to root after flash official firmware but it's good to root first as you may want to backup efs before you start messing the phone. I backed up the efs for the past 1.5years but so far never need it.

To flash a Custom ROM there is no need to root, the only thing you need is to install a custom recovery, TWRP is very good. After you have installed TWRP or any other custom recovery, you have to put on your SD Card the ROM that you want to install, and install it from the custom recovery.
