root - mobileiron

Hey guys! So i just switched from a sprint note 3 to a verizon note 3. I NEED root but my company uses mobile iron. Is there a way to use it and keep root?
Also whats the best way to root this? All I want is root no custom recover.

haha good bc cystom recovery isn't possible atm on retail verizon note 3. seems like vroot is the only way to go right now without tripping knox but do ur research.

believe it or not I like the stock rom (this is the first phone I have ever been able to say that with)
So vroot... hmmm I shall look into it. But I still need to know about the mobile iron.

well I should have been more specific we can flash roms and some mods with safestrap (a sorta of custom bootloader workaroundl). but we do not have the ability to flash custom kernels.

Try Rootcloak to hide root from the app. Works for another MDM software similar to that.
Edit:
Use the one from xposed framework. In not sure if the one from the play store works.

Can you link me to it?

Ok so kingo did not work.. Vroot. Did the trick. I did a factory reset after that and now I'm rooted. I loaded the new framework and root cloak. I will let you all know of it works.

remember rooting with cf autoroot will trip ur knox counter to 0x1, meaning your warranty will be gone. use towelroot method instead.

Don't suggest towelroot if your not willing to test it yourself ? That's like asking someone to brick their phone intentionally ?
If you won't do it don't suggest someone to experiment for you

you should really get your facts straight before accusating someone of anything. i've just used towelroot on my i9500 and it worked like a charm, didnt even trip knox.

Well try updating the thread you opened asking if anyone had used it ?
XDA is a community & people share tips & results. If you updated your thread then you could maybe helping others ??
So in your reply "get your facts straight" I didn't have the facts to make a decision on Ok

you shouldnt be suggesting me not to use others phones as experiments if you never ever had the facts (as u stated in ur last post). But whatever, just use towelroot if you don feel like tripping knox. good luck !

Thanks for the reply guys.
My phone is not in warrenty period.Its finished just before 2 days. So I am thinking to root it. And if warranty doesn't matter it is ok to use CF Auto root? Please link me to the CF Auto root and compatible CWM recovery for S4 i9500.
And one more thing I don't know about 'towelroot'.
Thanks...

totally agree....the guy makes a thread asking if anyone's tried it, but said he didn't want to try it himself because he didn't want to risk doing it on his own phone.....then goes telling other people to use it?

U should visit chanfire post and u will be known everything about root.

Yes it's fine to use chainfires autoroot
Here's the link to cf autoroot for i9500-just follow his instructions
Also the link to philz recovery here
You just need to download the .tar file from him & flash it just like you did with autoroot in odin

Thanks bro...
I have rooted my S4 with CF Auto root. But When I am trying to open Supersu app I am getting this msg, something about disable Knox.See the Screenshot. And tell me what to do?

Flash a custom recovery Philz recovery for example then flash custom rom because stock firmware has knox security built in!

I will flash PhilZ recovery. But what I do now. Do I tap on OK to disable KNOX?
And while flashing PhilZ Touch recovery do I face any problem like Bootloader Unlock or something like that?

Press ok or uninstall knox or disable knox. ..

You shouldn't run into any problems just flash with odin and once flash is complete do a nandroid backup before flashing a new custom rom

I have successfully flashed PhilZ recovery.
Can I flash any Rom available for S4 i9500 to my device through this recovery? Or do I have to change recovery everytime to taste different Roms? Sorry for bad English.
Thanks...

[Q] Note 3 ROOTING and KNOX

Hi Guys,
I have a new Note 3 (SM-9005) and wanted a definitive answer about triggering KNOX 0x1.
Is it possible for me to root without triggering KNOX?
I am not bothered about Custom ROMS at the moment or Recoveries. Just want ROOT.
My FW\SW details are;
AP: N9005XXUFNF4
CP: N9005XXUFNF2
CSC: N9005OXAFNF4
Any help greatly appreciated.

www.Towelroot.com - but not sure if it works on NF4, worth a try tho, as it wont trip your Knox in either way

Ok will have a look at that. Thanks. I believe it is geohotz version. I want to make sure it doesn't trip Knox before I try and will update this thread if I am successful as it may help others.

[Q] Rooting?

I recently purchased a new Samsung Galaxy S5 from India. I would like to know if I can root it, if yes, how? And what are the risks of rooting it? And what to do after rooting!
Thanks in advance.
Sent from my SM-G900H using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Of course you can root it.
The risk is loosing your warranty, which is unavoidable. If you can't live without warranty, then don't.
There is alot of things you can do with root.
I personally think it's a bad idea too root SM-G900H, since the other version can be rooted without loosing warranty.

How to root without pc

Here are the details of my phone i have used many root apps but it didn't work
Sent from my GT-I9500 using XDA Free mobile app

You can't root whithout pc,there are no root apps for S4

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292615
What did you use to try and root? Because Odin on the PC, the original cable for the S4, and CF-Autoroot should have this device rooted in about a minute. Be aware though that CF-Autoroot will trip the Knox flag.

Sure they work. They also work on the S4. Just NOT on your firmware. You need an older firmware (or kernel) for it to work.
