Root for Verizon Note 3

Now that we have lollipop for note 3 is there a root method

NO

Don't expect one until the JasmineROM dev releases MultiSystem. For that we need to wait for Verizon/Samsung to release the firmware. Could be about a week from now at least, 2 at most.

Thanks for the info...waiting patiently...

No root is not possible after nc4 it may never be possible to root we will most likely get a pre rooted rom able to be loaded on the nc4 bootloader

So when should we expect root for the note 3 running lollipop? Now that lollipop is out for the Verizon note 3 I mean.

Ask the Note 4 people. They have been waiting for root on lollipop longer and nothing yet. Expect nothing but there is always hope.

Multisystem isn't a root, its something like safestrap

Don't expect it, Lollipop is some serious biz and the security is tougher than ever which is good

Never expect anything just hope for it

Being able to boot from NC4 bootloader would be a plus! Then I can go back and forth between that and my trustworthy 4.4.2 ROM. Lolipop might not be able to load from an old bootloader though. We shall see.

It was done before probably can be done again, not sure if they updated the bootloader just yet

Yeah that would be nice if we could go back to 4.4.2 where there was root for Android

That was a while ago when it was done. 4.4.4 can not boot from NC4 firmware so more than likely 5.0 wont be able to do it either.
From reading HSBADRs thread, its looking like NC4 would be replaced by whatever the newest version is. There is no going back once you take his Lolipop ROM. So no backing up your 4.4.2 ROM before moving on because it wont work anymore. Safestrap will be gone as well and you will only have stock recovery.
Once you make that move to Lolipop, there is no going back to any of the previous ROMS that were released. That is a big commitment.

So no root for a while yet?

is this guide to root lolipop legit?

I noticed the lollipop update is now available for the note 3. However I still want to keep root. I searched google and found this guide, but I'm not sure if its legit or works.

Not sure, but did you see Hsbadr post in android dev...it's a rooted stock lollipop rom

Pay close attention...that is for the N900 International N3 that does not have a locked bootloader.

It's not the international N3, as those are modeled "N900n" where n is a number. The N900 is a SIM unlocked US variant that works on GSM only carriers. (All US variants are N900(x) where x is a letter representing the carrier. No Carrier leaves x blank.)
*EDIT*
Just to reiterate, this won't work on the N900V

The point is it does not work for Verizon or Att with locked bootloaders.

If I understand correctly there is currently no way to install Janine ROM of you are already on lollipop right? I just bought a used note three but haven't gotten it yet to see which firmware is on it. In coming from a g2 where there were plenty of ways to root

If you're already on lollipop than you cannot root or flash any roms. You need to be on either 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 already rooted with safe strap installed to install the rooted stock rom

Oh so jasmine ROM is basically stock 5.0 with root? So basically I just need to flash his ROM and I'm good to go? I'm running 4.4.2 and have safestrap installed

Root Updated Note 3 with 5.1.1?

Is there a method to root an updated Note 3 for Verizon yet? I have tried like 5 different methods with none of them working. Could I be missing a method that does work?

No root for 4.4.4 and higher. This thread should not be in developer area.

How the heck is this rooted then??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2760380

There is no root for 4.4.4 or above... yet. I'm not sure there will be, since everyone has moved on and Verizon does not plan to unlock the bootloader. Anyone currently rooted with a 4.4.4 or high ROM, stayed at 4.4.2 and then flashed a custom rom from there.

Pre rooted custom rom when they went to that rom they entered the danger zone. If anything requiring reflashing happens to it they can permanently loose root.

(5.0) Galaxy Note 3 Verizon Rooooooooooooot

Hi Everybody,,
I hope everybody is doing well.....
I need root for Galaxy note 3 Verizon, the version of the system is 5.0. And if the root was still not available i am ready to pay for it.
It's urgent

Search is your friend....

I heard someone was working on a 4.4.4 root

Then use that money to go buy a different phone because Verizon Note 3's with 5.0 on them can NOT be rooted.

Can you downgrade to KitKat and then root to Lollipop?
I rooted mine on KitKat awhile back and installed 5.0 stock and kept root. However, I ran into a problem when trying to flash TWRP because I couldn't access my previous custom recovery (I think I had SafeStrap?).
I used Odin to flash 5.0 stock but lost root.
Thanks

Nope. And you can do nothing to get root short of buying a new phone...or a used Verizon Note 3 that is on 4.4.2 or LOWER.

You can't ODIN to the original stock version and root from there? I'm curious on what would be different if you went back to 4.3 and rooted from there.

Nope...you can not use Odin to go back to lower than 4.4.4. There are hardware "fuses" that once "blown" can not be reset and the system reads those fuses and will not allow an earlier OS to be flashed.

yes it was rooted but unfortunately they didn't release it to the public. the proof it was rooted because they were able to install a custom rom consisting the Arabic language.

That video was not proof. They could easily have used a prior rooted Note 3 and maintained root when upgrading to 5.0. Perhaps they did gain root on 5.0, but that video doesn't prove anything. I'm anxious for March 15th to see if their claims pan out or if they're just blowing smoke like everyone before them.

Reportedly this does not work on KitKat or above (4.4 and above). The bootloader is locked and can not be unlocked. The bootloader won't permit non-Verizon kernals to load.
I have not tried the above...but it has been reported on this forum and elsewhere.

You are correct, that's why I mentioned rooted phones. Nothing above 4.4.2 has been rooted and probably won't be despite rumors.

Root and bootloader are two different concepts.
Kitkat 4.4.2 can be rooted with towelroot, but its bootloader cannot be unlocked thus no custom ROMs.
So a rooted Verizon note 3 still can not install cm11 or any other custom roms.
The correct phrase should be bootloader unlocked phones are eligible for custom roms.

We now have root for retail versions running both versions of lollipop and we have a boot loader unlock that works.

Support was dropped because of no maintainers, and the unofficial builds dropped because of RIL/LTE issues. A couple of devs and myself are looking at it.
