Hi.
Last phone i rooted was my Samsung S2 6 years ago.
Now i got a Note 4 N910C Exynos in stock Rom 6.0.1 unrooted factory mode.
Can someone point out to a tested and stable way to root the device.
I am hoping to get the Oreo Rom on next once it comes out if it does.
Thanks.

Greetings-
I have tried to root my Galaxy Note 3 using the autoroot file provided by the great Chainfire ( much respect ). But it does not work. I just want to be clear, this is a phone, which I have reimaged with the Sprint stock firmware again, since I erased one file too many and could not boot it any more. Has anyone done this? btw, I got my image from SAMOBILE. Has anyone rooted a phone, ideally Galaxy Note 3, which they flashed with stock firmware after they rooted it once at least?
Regards
I managed to flash my Note 3 with a stock Android 5.0 firmware. I then did a factory reset. I now just have to update the software and can then hand it off.
First time is always a little scary not knowing what to expect.
Thanks.
1. Should I upgrade my note 3 to lollipop or marshmallow. I heard marshmallow isn't a good choice right now as there are allot of issues.
2. Got 4.3 rooted without knox triggered.
How can i upgrade the device to the update chosen above. Do i need to flash any kernel, boot loader, etc.
Thanks for the reply and apologies if it has been asked before.

Hi Guys,
I have a Note 3 (India) which I rooted sometime back. I did not install any Custom ROM but I did remove
KNOX, Kids Mode and more things using Titanium Backup.
Now, I heard that the Marshmallow update for Note 3 will be available soon OTA ( as it is already out in Canada), so I was
wondering if I would be able to install it. I know I wont be able to install it in the present condition, so I need your help in knowing
how can I do it. Someone said that I need to install the Stock ROM, but I don't which version, serial etc to use.
HELP!

You heard wrong no MM for Note 3 .
A factory reset should restore your Note 3 .
Yup, definitely no MM for any Note 3, not just Canada.
Hello,
First off: Yes, i know that Live Demo Units have no modem Hardware. It is NOT my Goal to use a SIM Card or Cellular Network, i ONLY want to use a recent custom ROM on this Wifi-only "phone".
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 Live Demo Unit and a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Live Demo Unit. I know that the bootloader on those LDUs is somewhat "locked" for upgrading.
So on the Note 4 LDU the Situation seems like so:
The phone came with Android 4.4, but you could upgrade it to Android 5.0. 5.1 and higher do not work.
I could easily Flash TWRP and Flash ROMs, but new Android Version Custom ROMs require recent bootloader versions for Android 6. So i can Flash those ROMs, but the phone won't boot them up or Crash on Lockscreen (from what i've read about the note 4)
I did not try anything til now, the phone is completely stock. The OTA-Update function of the stock ROM doesn't find any updates.
The Bootloader/PDA Version on this Note 4 LDU is: N910XXXU1ANK3_LLK
CSC is "PAP"
So, but now i have much more positive experience with my S5 LDU (SM-G900X):
This phone is running very reliable throughout the recent AOSP-based custom ROMs. I was running Resurection Remix (Nougat) and now i am even running a stable Android 8.1 ROM! But the bootloader seems as old as on the Note 4: G900XXXU0ANH1_LLK. CSC is "ITV"
Interesting Fact: Knox is NOT tripped
I had an A5 (SM-A500X) for a while here and i had exactly the same experience of what i read in the Internet about the note 4:
TWRP flashed flawlessly, this is never a Problem. But i could not install a recent custom ROM, it kept bootlooping as soon as i rebooted. It never saw anything higher than the stock 4.4. So i gave up and the phone away. So i tried to Flash a new bootloader/Stock ROM on this phone and it always failed at flashing "aboot.mbn" and other bootloader stuff because of "security" Problem. Knox was tripped while flashing TWRP. TWRP works fine for flashing, backing up and restoring.
So i don't understand why the Android 6 and higher is not running on the note 4? There was official Android 6 (Bootloader) Updates for both phones i think? Maybe it is possible to help me to modify an existing Android 7/8 ROM to run on this old Version of the bootloader?
And why is the S5 running Android 8 with such an old bootloader without any Problem if it's such a Problem on the "same year" Note 4?
I am sorry for my bad english, i am from Germany.
I would be glad, if someone could help me out. I really like my Note 4 LDU, but with this laggy and slow Stock 4.4, it's not fun to use at all
