Are you having a hard time getting S-OFF?
EDIT: Just saw your other post in the rooting thread, if you haven't seen my response there just follow this video to root.

Go ahead and try it first with out factory resetting. If it doesn't work then you'll need to factory reset. I'm sure you'll be fine with out doing it though.
thanks going to try this, do i need to unlock the sim though? and flash the bootloader?

No the SIM is optional. But I would highly suggest the bootloader. Especially if you're going to be flashing ROM's and kernels.

That's odd. I wonder why root isn't sticking. You might have to try and factory reset and start from scratch.
i actually got it to work, thanks so much for the help!

[Q] Atrix 4g. Any help would be appreciated!!!

First off im not a noob. i have/had a nexus s; captivate, att sgs2 all rooted flashed and the sort. my wifes atrix 4g is a mystery. it could be because i havent spent as much time with it as the other phones but anyway heres the prob: when she got her phone it was running either 2.2 or 2.2.xx cant remember but i rooted it using gingerbreak. then she did the gingerbread update on top of the root. here is the problem. the phone still has the supersuser app and looks like its rooted but its not. how do i remove all of the the components of the root then reroot? theres nothing wrong with the phone it works fine no problems whatsoever. a lil info any advanced users could use: system version 4.5.91.mb860.att.en.us running 2.3.4 kernel 2.6.32.9-00001-g41bc3e0 [email protected]#2 build# 4.5.91
any help will be appreciated. ill try to check this tread as often as i can. we just had a newborn 3 weeks ago and a 2yr old running around as well as working full time. feel free to send a pm with any question r possible solutions. thx

What makes you think its not rooted?
In any case, try "re-rooting" using the info in this thread.
Any app that requires root permissions says its not rooted. ill try that and see what happens. thx

Try Root Checker to see if you are rooted.

what apps ? is there no alternatives ?
should be but you will need root and some build.prop editing maybe FwSpoof
Safety Care. I have not yet found an alternative, but if you know one I would appreciate it if you would share it with me.
Root is not an option on this device.
hmm

It's for the HTC One X. I'm not sure how easy it is to root it and if you keep the warranty/don't lose data.
I just took a quick peek and didn't see anything.

i havent rebooted to linux yet to make a recovery so i can do it properly. but that should boot the stock kernel which ive modifed to inject su binary, youll then need to install supersu from the play store (before or after) booting the image is very important as flahsing it will render your device in operable, while just booting it is if it goes sideways then a reboot will clear it back out
thank you

Lollipop ROM for those on 4.4.4

For anyone on 4.4.4
There's this lollipop rom from the international section that looks amazing
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-5-0-lollipop-tmt-1-0-t2982363
Someone with our N900A variant said you have to be on 4.4.4 to get the rom to work. I would like to know if the rom will work and I haven't updated to 4.4.4 yet. I'm debating on weather I should update or not. Can someone try it out and report back with info?
Thanks!
I tried. It is AROMA installer. Can't load. Asked developer if he could make a non aroma based version.

There's a way to unaroma a rom. I've done it on the Tmo Hyperdrive rom. Try searching it up.

Have you got the lollipop rom working?
@chamelio
I just tried it and it did not work for me... maybe it was just some thing I missed while getting rid of the aroma. I got to the point where it showed the GN3 boot screen with the unlocked padlock but it never went any further, just kept rebooting. Ill try again tomorrow
Thanks

I think we will have to have a kernel and maybe also bootloader to handle the new file system they or not normal apk, they or unpacked folders with related apk and arm folders

Do you think that's possible for our device atm?

I also was able to remove aroma and try to flash this rom with the NC2 kernel as well as the NJ5 kernel. With the NC2 kernel i reach a blank screen and with NJ5 i reach the samsung galaxy note 3 custom screen before it reboots into device recovery. This rom does use a different kernel that we cant flash thanks to a locked bootloader, so in my opinion at this point in time i dont think its possible for our devices to run this rom. We probably won't have lollipop until there is a workaround for the bootloader or we get an official OTA so we then have the proper kernel to run lollipop.
