[Q] 4.3 AT&T root

Hello all,
I have a AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 that just updated to 4.3. Can someone direct me to how I can gain root access? Also, I am assuming that noone has published a way to crack the bootloader as of yet? Thanks in advance for any help concerning this.

There are several methods of rooting 4.3 but outside of that you will NOT be able to install any custom ROM's, recoveries,etc.
However, these methods are unsupported by XDA as the authors are in China and haven't released vital information on the ingenuity of their program (in terms of privacy and security). Thus I am unable to post it here, however... a simple Google search will yield the program if you are willing to take the risk of a random Chinese company having who knows what data from your device. The only way to have avoided using these programs would have been to put SuperSU into survival mode prior to upgrading to MK2 (4.3).

Root help
I was looking to root AT&T MK2 4.3 S4 for 2 reasons. 1. to be able to tether 2. to be able to record calls. I read other threads but found that after root, I need to install Wanam xposed framework, and reviews show that both hacks don't successfully work on MK2.
Saferoot is probably is best root method for MK2 AT&T but Safestrap recovery does not appear to be as good as TWRP or CWM as ROM Slots are required and memory will not be used to fullest.
Please help, anyone has success with any root method to accomplish 1. tether 2. call recording successfully on MK2?
or Successful recovery install (TWRP or CWM ) so the custom ROMS like hyperdrive can be installed.
Thanks all...

Safestrap help...
Hi all.. Please help me with another question... (AT&T MK2 4.3 S4)
First I would like to thank all developers for great great work here and all members for sharing their experiences and suggestions...
Do I have to create ROM slot in order to flash Hyperdrive ROM and keep stock ROM as it is
OR I can backup and wipe stock ROM and flash hyperdrive over it, and keeping one active ROM?
Only reason I dont want to create ROM slot is that then I will not be using the whole memory, I want to use all16GB..
Also I am getting a security policy update pop up on phone, should I install it before rooting or just ignore it?
Please advise,

call recording
guys anyone knows if call recording works on MK2 4.3. It does not work on stock ROM using Wanam. The phone freezes. Not sure if it will work with any other ROM.

[Q] Few doubts about N9005

Hello Guys,
I need clarification on few doubts. I tried searching but was not able to find the correct answers. It would be great If someone could answer it.
1) I use a note3 n9005 in India. It was region unlocked when I bought it. I am planning on rooting it and installing a custom rom. Will the region lock kick in after I root or install the custom rom?
2) If I root the device without tripping the knox, will I get any samsung official OTA updates?
Thank you in advance.:good:

1. If it does, Chainfire has an app for that. RegionLock Away.
2. Not to my knowledge. And you shouldn't want to, either. Best use Odin.

1. No
2. Yes - as long as your system status is official and knox flag is 0

Thank you guys.this battery drain is driving me crazy and I guess only solution is a custom rom. Thank you for the help.

[Q] Kingo rooting and N910C

Hi all,
Kingo released the a new version of their software (1.3.2) in which they indicate that it now supports rooting the note 4 N910C.
Did anyone try this yet and if so, can they verify that knox is not tripped in this rooting process?
Also, please do tell which baseband and kernel did you have when you rooted using Kingo
I just got the note 4 and would love to know if this method keeps the warranty. I intend to root and keep the original ROM, just want to get TB on the phone to clear up the bloatware.
Thanks in advance.

As much as I know there is none...also there have been many threads about the very same question.

Tips and advices.

Hello everyone! I always had rooted all my devices and now just upgraded my note3 to note 4 and I really can't find a safe way to root the note 4n910f with the latest official updates on him (5.1.1 COI3 ). Any advice for a safe root method? Thank you all!

What do you mean by safe ? Are you talking about rooting without triggering know? If so then not possible for 5.1.1 atm and most likely not gonna happen.
Other then that just check out the rooting guides.
