Hello, I bought a Note 3 N9005 a week ago & been trying to root it since then , I've downloaded cf-auto root , twrp & Odin , but then I found out that the windows can't recognize my device & this is what I tried to do to fix the problem :
1. replaced the micro USB 3.0 port on my note 3
2. Replaced the USB cable
3. Reinstalled Samsung drivers on win
4. Installed kies
5. Tried *#0808# => MTP
6. hard reset
So I've almost tried everything and to be honest I can't deal with the stock touchwiz lollipop,
And the only way to root it must be without a PC
Can anyone help ?
* Rooting apps only works on 4.1 & 4.4
Mine is 5.0
I've tried kingroot and Kingo app
Nothing worked
The summary is :
How to root my lollipop note 3 without a PC?
Why do you want to root ??

Because no I'm sick of Android lollipop, I want to flash a custom rom, my previous phone was running Android 8 which is far way better than lollipop
Follow the roms instructions .

Hello everyone,
i am fairly new to the world of rooting and recently encountered a problem while flashing a rom
i have the at&t samsung galaxy note 3 N-900A running 4.3 jellybean (2 year contract expired and i got and used the unlock code)
i rooted the phone using the kingo root app, because i could not update the phone (I recently moved out of the USA so i cant connect to an at&t server to update)
i installed safestrap recovery 3.71 and it was running fine
i found a tutorial from galaxy note 3 root for the knoxraid ro
(put youtube. c o m here) /watch?v=8HDHt4xSnQY
according to the tutorial i had to install the rom over the stock rom file
so i copied the stock rom to rom slot 1
this is where i messed up, i installed the knoxraid rom over the stock rom without wiping/data factory reset first. But it gets worse, i realized i forgot to wipe the data from safestrap so before the install was even halfway completed, i pulled the battery out.
now whenever i turn it on it will go straight to recovery mode
it wont even turn off. i have to pull the battery out.
i can get to download mode and recovery mode but thats it.
im not sure about the build number because it wont boot up
all i can tell you is it is a at&t note 3 running 4.3 jellybean
please help if you can
btw: my computer wont recognize the phone because it says the PHONE does not have the correct drivers installed
however odin still recognizes it with the blue box with 0:[COM6] if that helps
so yeah please help me the phone is fairly new and i dont want to waste $600

Well, this is the wrong forum to begin with.
However, head over here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703006 , and read very, very carefully.

sorry, next time ill post in the right forum

thanks in advance
Hi,
I had a few questions about flashing my phone and potentially updating to kitkat.
I would appreciate having my answers in same form as questions thanks!! (sorry for being so picky)
1. I heard Kitkat does not allow you to backup apps or modify folders in the sdcard is there a work around to this? (the reason is because I use a program called Es Explorer to move files from folder to folder.)
2. I have a Canadian note 3 (SM-N900W8) I want to get the S5 layout and features such as Ultra Saving Mode onto the Note 3 without losing any of the key features from Note 3 like s pen functionality. Is this possible if so please leave a guide to performing this
3. To get the S5 features onto my Note 3 will I have to first update to Kitkat or can I stay at 4.3,?
4. Will I be able to get OTA software updates on my Note 3 even after I port the S5 features?
5. Before I do any flashing or modifying How can I BACK EVERYTHING ON MY PHONE to ensure NOTHING IS LOST.
6. Finally, will I have to first unlock my phone to flash or mod it?
THANK You!
I appreciate your time.
You can get all of that by flashing ported s5 rom like the RC elite rom , and no your device will be modified so no OTA but you don't need it anyway
Before flashing backup your stock rom in the custom recovery so nothing get lost
Make sure to backup your IMEI before flashing anything.
Go to Play Store and enter 'IMEI Backup' to search for IMEI backup app.
1. It works perfectly fine for me on KitKat
2. Yep the rom link and guides is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-canadian-v17-rcelite-t2840523 (imo the rom is very snappy and good! All the full S5 features and look without compromising on SPen functionality )
3. You have to flash kitkat first
4. Well you can't get OTA updates for the Note 3 firmware, but you will get OTA updates for the rom!
5. You can do a nandroid backup, copy all files to computer or backup with KIES 3
6. Nope
N9005 NH1 32GB Stock debloated rooted ROM
i wanted to know if i would be able to update my friends GM900F to the newly released Android 5.0 ROM without a computer.
Only reason im doing this is because for some strange reason his phone isnt being recognised but my S5 (GM900H) is. When pluged in it doesnt even say connected as media device on the phone itself. Tried doing all i could, reinstalling drivers and what not even using another laptop on windows 7, and yes USB Debugging is on
he really wants to flash the new ROM badly and doesnt want to wait for an OTA,
I was wondering if in theory i could get it to work by rooting his phone with towelroot, installing Mobile Odin and then flashing the Firmware?
if it fails and is soft bricked i dont know how to go about fixing it cause it just wont recognise the device at all or install drivers, but my S5 (GM900H) gets recognised fine.
Has anyone ever used Mobile Odin to flash a whole new firmware?
any tips
Wait for first custom Roms and flash via recovery. [emoji52]

My USB port is knackered so just chargeing batteries externly for the time being
Which is why I want to root via app also I only have mac books at home and a lot of computer based root tools don't support macs

Ok thanks
Hello,
I have a Galaxy Note 4 SM-910C Lollipop 5.1.1 rooted and TWRP 2.8.6.1 2.65 as well as SuperSU installed.
I've always managed all the updates via Kies 3 (since kitkat XEH N910CXXU1ANK5-to-lollipop XEH N910CXXU2COJ5). Indeed, through Kies 3, I kept my mobile update and intact (data, programs, home screen ...)
Today Kies 3 detects a new firmware update XEH-N910CXXS2CPB3, recognizes my Note 4, download the firmware and do restart the mobile. Here everything is spoiled. The mobile is no longer recognized.
Although SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones v1.5.59.0 is installed, Windows searches for the driver Gadget Serial without success. No connection with the Note 4, the update fail.
1) Why this update requires the driver Serial Gadget
2) How and where to download the appropriate driver Gadget Serial?
3) If I do the update via Odin3. Does my Note 4 will remain intact (data, programs, home screen ... will not be deleted)?
I'll appreciate any help
