Rooting/unrooting and the stock ROM - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hi,
I hope you can help me. I'm looking for stock ROM but with possibility of debloating, but finally want to have only couple of Samsung applications and nonrooted version of ROM (because of bank apps).
Is it possibly to install rooted ROM and later remove root access?
Many thanks

Bobcat roms unrooted?

Hey guys,
So I've been playing around with my Galaxy Note 3 Canadian version and found bobcat is my favorite rom, it prompts me to update the rom and flashes the phone. Everything works great, install was a little tricky cause it's not as strait forward as it could be. But I guess Iinstalled kernel back onto my phone with the bobcat rom. And now my phone iisn't rooted anymore but am running bobcat. So I try and run towel root but it says it doesn't support my device even when I go threw and change all the codes for devices. So wanam exposed doesn't work and I can't customize or use the hotspot service. (as my service provider doesn't alow me to and that's why I wanted to have a custom rom in the first place it bypasses it)
Any tips or help will be much appreciated u have also done a root check and that came negative too.
Thanks in advance

SM-N900W8? Help with finding the right rom or at least fix...

Hey everyone...
I hope this isn't another repost but... How can I remove all the bloatware on this phone? It is a Rogers (Canadian) phone, with their ROM.
I am on Android 5.0 to the latest update.
I want to run something that is more cleaner than the Samsung rom and I don't really want all that other non-sense from Rogers.
If that is not possible how could I remove the Rogers bloatware from the phone?
Thanks guys!
Root the phone with cfautoroot and Odin. With root, install Titanium Backup and freeze or remove the unwanted apps.

Old Note 3

Hi all,
Thanks in advance.... I had my Note 3 since it was launched and I think it's high time I root it & try to use it with custom built rom as the original standard rom is getting out dated & sluggish.
I read a few threads about rooting this phone and the more I read, the more confuse I got as I am not sure which is the best way to do it now.
So, if there is any kind hearted soul out there, can you point me the right direction to which thread or way that is best for rooting my Note 3.
Lastly, which custom Rom that is currently best in terms of stability? I prefer rom that is as clean as possible without those bloatwares or unnecessary apps that usually comes standard on the original rom.
My unit should be international model as it is not tied to any Telco, I am in Malaysia.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Flash TWRP custom recovery .
Use Supersu zip to root if needed .

If you intend to use a custom ROM, there is no need to root the phone before flashing the custom ROM if you install TWRP first.
Confirm the model # of your phone in download mode before flashing TWRP as Samsung made several models of the Note 3.
Thanks so much guys, great stuff, at least there is something I can look forward to do this Christmas break....
Thanks again... Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all!

Hi, so what you are saying is if I install the right copy of TWRP first, it will do the rooting as well & put in the supersu for me?
Thanks again.
What I mean is that there is no need to root the existing stock rom with supersu if you intend to go straight to a custom ROM after flashing twrp.
Flashing supersu with twrp is needed to get root on a stock rom if you intend to stay with a stock rom.

Searching for a specific Custom ROM

Hello,
Sorry if this has been asked before but is there actually a custom ROM of the latest stock Samsung Touchwiz Lollipop 5.0.1 for the S4 i9505 but without all the bloatware apps that comes with it? A ROM without needing to root the phone would be very much appreciated.
If the ROM can't be found in the development forum, it probably doesn't exist.

I thought perhaps I could't find it and that someone else might know such a ROM.
There may not be much demand for a de-bloated stock ROM which is why such a ROM doesn't exist.
If you don't want to root the phone, you could try Titanium Backup and freeze apps you don't want running or loading when the phone boots.
