[Q] Want to remove super user and set device status offical

Well friends....this is my 1st post sorry in advance if there is some mistake
I have a samsung galaxy s4 i9500 and I rooted it with kingoapp retaining warranty bit 0. After that I got a update (mk9) so with wanam xposed I used fake status and updated through ota.
After that root was removed but su app was not removed
I just want to remove the superuser app and the most important thing is there any way to make the device status as OFFICIAL if possible. That would help me a lot...thanks in advance

1. Only if the BINARY Status is still Custom, download and extract OFFICIAL STATUS MOD(.tar.md5): GT-I9500 - open in Odin as PDA (password: djembey2013)
*EDIT: Use it by your own responsibility -> Take a look this page for more info

Rooting fails, downgraded kitkat

hi all, i downgraded back to Kitkat and now i want to root and it fails, it says something about recovery...
i tried the CF-autoroot file from chainfires website (tough its made for lollipop)
and i googled for a older version for Kitkat but that one fails also...
please help
i dont think this has anything to do with it but, i downloaded the stock firmware from sammobile from Vodafone ( my phone was vodafone but on lollipop roms i downloaded the unbranded version) could this maybe be the problem ?

can be closed, i fixed it !

I don't want to Deodex and/or use Xposed for now, just root is good for me. Deleted the unwanted games that came in stock, disabled the SecurityLogAgent, Knox and ANT, installed DroidWall, thats it for me.

SM-A700F is not working unfortunately...........

Yeah, I've tried with FD variant as I writed in the Thread Title. On official site doesn't even have any of A Series models listed on suported devices, so it's a shot in the dark. :fingers-crossed:
I just got tired of those crap bloatware and games, and decided to give a try, and "voilà", I got lucky. :victory:

Say thanks to the chineses guys who created the KingRoot! I'm just spreading the happiness :highfive: but thank you btw :good:
After root you will keep getting a Notification saying "SE for Android has been disabled..." and asking for restart the device, to get rid of this message disable SecurityLogAgent (doesn't Uninstall, just Disable) GG

How did you manage to disable the SecurityLogAgent ?

Is there any way other then Odin to install firmware updates to a rooted device?

I have rooted Note4 sm-n910c (Exynos) running 6.0.1 stock rom and when I checked firmware updates I can't install them through OTA because root. My PC and phone have connections issue so I need to find a way to install updates. Is there a way for this?

You can try Flashfire by Chainfire. Download the latest firmware first from Samfirmware.
Make a nandroid backup first of your current rom in case something went wrong.

after root, install xposed framework and change the status of your phone to official and voila you can get official updates.

I'm pretty sure that Samsung have just dropped all support and future updates for the Note 4.

Once xposed is installed, download the wanam module and within you can find an option of changing the status to OFFICIAL. Via this phone thinks you are on official stock and downloads n installs the updates.

download all three.
I am not sure on which one is specific to your mobile, but there is a workaround
install the arm64(as i believe this one is for n910c) and let it boot up.
if it doesnot in around 15-20 mins, take out the battery and try "arm"
