Verizon note 4 - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got my note 4 today and I was looking around on these forms for a way to root my phone but I can't seem to find it anywhere. If there is a way to root it can you please show me the thread or if not I guess I'll have to wait. I'm using 5.0.1 right now.

After looking around some more chainfires cf root works on the note 4 n910u but only version 4.4.4. So if I use Odin to flash the stock 4.4.4 version and then root that would that work?

that's correct, the best option and only one you have, just make sure after flashing and check the firmware version, cheers:fingers-crossed:

There is no way to root the Verizon Note 4 on 4.4.4 or 5.0.1. CF Auto Root will not work. You're going to have to wait until a method is found.

Which model do you have? If Towel root doesn`t work there is only CF Auto Root atm, look here for the correct file http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/. This does trip KNOX though.

I tried to root SM-G900F international version using "1337 0 1 7380 4 0" - just hanged and didn't work though. Not comfy rooting tripping the knox so will probably leave it!
I just got the 900V (Verizon) update which caused me to lose root. I tried towelroot v3 (with the "new samsung" settings) and still says phone not supported. Anybody with a verizon phone and the new update gotten their phone to root again? If so, can you post the settings you ended up entering after clickk=ing 3 times on the welcome to towelroot v3 text?

Try to downgrade to an earlier rom with Odin and Towelroot should work again or look in the S5 Verizon forum for more tips.

I have the same issue, but how would one go about finding the launch kernel for the S5?
EDIT: spent some more time digging around on the web and I found that sammobile has all the S5 firmware you need to reflash back to stock April version.

Try going to the general Verizon thread for the S5. There are a number of posts regarding rooting your S5 (or re-rooting): http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general

Not if you untick auto reboot in Odin, so after the flash pull the battery and you wait 15 seconds and boot into recovery and data factory reset and reboot. Did it myself mate from NG2 to NE2
Can somebody tell me, does stay official version firmware on Phone info window and on stock CWM window (knox counter 0x0) after root with towelroot ?
Thanks forwarding on answer.

This is because your phone isn't supported by TowelRoot yet as it is a new device. But don't worry, you can definitely try the CF Auto Root.

samsung and towelroot
Hey, I'm a relatively new android user, and I'm dying to root my Samsung S5 SM G900F, but it's proving to be harder than I expected.
I tried the towelroot application but it says that my phone is not supported, even though others have seemed to do this easily. Any suggestions? I use a Mac Computer as well, which doesn't make it any easier....

Rooting on 4.4.4

Does anyone know if there is a way to root the Note 3 if it is on KitKat 4.4.4? I have tried using Odin but it fails. Perhaps I cannot do it with the 4.4.4 build?

Exploits got closed your screwed until they find a new method. And I'm 98% any dev working on it is saving exploits for 5.0 not 4.4.4 so until that drops I doubt 4.4.4 will get root after the fact and the only way you might have root on a 4.4.4 note 3 is if it is preroot or a dev unit.

[Q] root verizon Samsung Galaxy note3 sm900v 4.4.4 question

Stock verizon note3 sm900v
Android 4.4.4
I'm not finding much in ways of options for root currently. Is it possible to flash my phone back to 4.4.2, root once there, then sideload 4.4.4? Using something like Odin maybe?

Maybe this VIDEO helps you. It's for one sm-n900a.
Perhaps it would if i could find the corresponding files for the n900v. Any ideas where i can find them?
i found everything but this file:N900VVRUCNC4_N900VVZWCNC4_VZW.zip
Update
After some extensive searching i found the files and hope to attempt to downgrade according to video posted ^ with my SM-N900V. I found a great site for FW versions for anyone encountering this problem in the future: galaxynote3update
update
This method does not work on Verizon. I found the Verizon equivalent files and attempted this but got a SW REV CHECK fail when trying to download 4.4.2 FW. ATT must not have a version check in theirs. I have exhausted every method out there. Hoping someone comes up with a one click root for this configuration soon cuz not having root sucks
Did you ever succeed?
I just received a new Note 3 from my warranty company. I was hoping it would have 4.4.2 on it
but it has the same version as yours. I really could use root.
Any luck with your phone?
Hey you all

Upon further research I found out that if your phone is n900vvrudnk1 it is not compatible to root. It seems that sammy has us under lock-down for now. If we upgrade to the lollipop 5.0 will this upgrade boot loaders also?

[Q] Is there root for the official Verizon lollipop ota update?

Just updated from android 4.4.4 to 5.o on my Verizon note 3 sm-n900v in hope that 5.0 would have a root exploit. Can I root the Verizon note 3 5.0???

As of right now, no. There IS however the possibility of returning to NK1 from 5.0, so if something gets released for NK1 and not 5.0, then that's an option.

Are you on 4.4.4? If not and you have SS, you can flash Jasmine Rom. Which is really just a stock lollipop Rom with root.

Nothing past 4.4.2 can be rooted as of now, you cannot downgrade to an earlier version to root.

Downgrading Lollipop?

I was wondering how to go about downgrading my N900v - I downloaded the Stock Kitkat Firmware and tried to flash with odin, keep getting a SW REV CHECK FAIL - [aboot] Fused 4 > Binary 1 error. Not sure what this means or what I am doing wrong. I want to go back to root, install a custom recovery, and then put a rooted Lollipop rom on. PLEASE HELP! I used the search function and no answer is clear cut. Now, I used Odin and all I am getting upon boot is: Your device didn't update successfully, use the verzon software repar assistant. Sorry for posting twice, posted in generic Note 3 thread and didn't know how to delete. Thanks in advance!

If you have android 5.0 on the phone you are stuck, you can't downgrade. Try flash 5.0 with Odin again maybe you'll be lucky and phone will start working again.

This. Are you trying to flash NJ6? They're both 4.4.4 builds but NJ6 is blocked. Flash NK1. That will get you back to 4.4.4.

So if you are on 5.1.1, you can downgrade, but rooting is a lost cause at that point?

You can downgrade to 4.4.4, but 4.4.4 can NOT be rooted. So no...you have no way to get root for 4.4.4 or higher.

This is more locked down than an iPhone 6s Plus! (just jailbroke my wife's). I can't believe that no one has figured out how to root this phone in 5.0. I'd really like to start taking advantage of some of the great features on a rooted Note 3, and I don't care if it trips the Knox. I don't care about the warranty. Does anyone have any ideas about rooting this stock device that is on 5.0?

Of course tons of really smart people have tried rooting 4.4.4 and above. With or without tripping Knox. No one has been able to break the locked bootloader by any method. For all intents and purposes...it can't be done.

i was on OF1 and odin stock NJ6 but ticked on nand erase
can downgrade to nk1 from of1 too
where is root for 4.4.4?
