hello everyone,

I am having a problem with my SMN-9005 in download mode not recognized by the computer.

I have installed Kies 3. It is recognized when not in download mode.

I have an other device in my device manager MSM8960 which pops up when I plug the usb cable in download mode.

Is there a separate driver for this ? or am i doing something wrong ?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] KeesStolk:
Is reactivation unchecked at settings>security and do you use the original cable?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] agassparkle:
Yes reactivation is unchecked and no i am not using the original cable.

Can it be because the laptop i am using doesnt have a usb 3 out ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] mikkelrev69:
Go ahead.

Knox is a security system on your phone that you can't use if the phone is customized. The bootloader records the customization by a counter (0-0). If you root your phone, the knox counter records 0-1 and the knox system is out of play.

It's been written a lot about it... Google it....

USB debug activated in phone settings/dev.options?

With the phone attached to pc, try Windows update.... In my case this worked...

USB 2 or 3 doesn't matter at all..
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] agassparkle:
I tried it on an other computer and it worked :)

THanks for the help.

mj7 confused

Hi, sorry but I'm a verry fresh N9005 user with MJ7 bootloader and I've heard that if I will tripp the KNOX flag it will disable Bluetooth and Wifi excluding the warrenty things. Is it true, because i don't want to loose my N3 at the first day :).

Sorry for my English and thank You in advance for any replys.

LOCOSP:confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] :
many users installed this CWM and are as well on Custom ROMs without KNOX - but we have WiFi and Bluetooth working.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] LOCOSP:
Sorry but what do You mean "without KNOX" ?

if I understand You right, I can use the ChainFire solution with my n9005 MJ7 bootloader without touching KNOX flags ( going further without loosing warranty , or loosing warranty but other stuff will working like it should ? )

Thank You
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] :
better to ask from other people about warranty and KNOX flag, as I didn't really care about them.

When I flashed CWM (before this I added Auto ROOT) - I didn't use KNOX at all.

I did the steps: flash Auto Root, flash CWM (all from Odin 3.09 application on PC) - and all usual functions of the phone are working.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Using CF AUTO ROOT - You WILL trip the Knox flags - And you WILL void the warranty.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] LOCOSP:
ok thanks i understand that but no further issues with BT and wifi, correct (please remember i've got MJ7 bootloader ? if yes I goingo to do it ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Rooting your device, has no effect on any of the functionality (with the exception of Knox). Wifi & BT will continue to work as they do now. ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] jakTomas:
hello ... if i flashed this rom with odin ,, what will happen to the Knox counter ??
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] :
I'm plugging my wife's Note 3 in the computer, but Odin doesn't seem to read it, because when I click Start, it doesn't root it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Does your pc "see" your phone? - Did you install the Samsung Drivers on the pc?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] :
No, didn't know I needed to, lol.

Edit: Thank you, worked.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] uncanny:
HI Chainfire, I really appreciate your work.

I've Galaxy Note 3 Dual Sim N9002. Your CF Auto Root is not working with Odin v1.85, it gets stuck at CACHE and I see this on my phone's screen. "Set warranty Bit: Cache" Can you please make CF Auto Root for the latest build no. N9002ZNUDMK1. The official firmware is available at sammobile website, without root on my N9002, I can't install Google play store and remove Chinese Bloatware.

Link to latest N9002 firmware http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SM-N9002&pcode=0#firmware
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
You might want to post on Chainfire's Twitter - I'm not sure how often he checks here - Just a thought ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] newstar:
If knox tripped to 0x1 , can we get official ota and install them ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] jaycb420:
I don't think ota works. But you can flash the newest firmware when places like samsmobile release it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] newstar:
I think ota works if system status is official instead of modified , I think ota not dependent on knox
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] melvie:
Rooting worked like a charm (another device rooted by you :good: ) to bad for Knox 0x1.

Thanks, keep up the good work.

no, does not work ...
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Arkmanpt:
What is the safest way to flash the new 4.4.2 version on top of the mj7 rooted with cf-auto-root ?

Anyone done it yet?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Chainfire:
I'll look into it... kinda surprised it isn't working, as it's been updated with the changes I made to make it work on the S4 4.4.2 ... sigh.

Will I be able to flash the 4.4.2 fw with mobile Odin and use the ever root option? Apologies if this is a dumb-ish question.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:


---------- Post added at 06:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:03 AM ----------

Odin to Stock Firmware.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Chainfire:
That won't work yet(!) Mobile ODIN is not updated yet with the SuperSU version needed for 4.4.2. Also, this firmware may not boot depending on your bootloader version, so you might need to use Odin anyway to get the right bootloaders on your device.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] alom5:
yea, i had to reflash ticking the update bootloader option to get the phone to boot at all. and it didn't wipe anything so my screen is all messed up as i was running 5 apps on the bottom and its stretched all over the place.

thanks for getting root sorted so quickly chainfire.:)
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
Hi guys needhelp. I tried rooting my device with cf root. Im sm n9005. After using odin, here's what i got. Its not booting anymore.

Please help.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] radekklamzynski7:
pull the battery, go into DOWNLOAD MODE Flash firmware 4.4.2
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
Thanks. Where do i get the firmware and how do i flash it?

Thank you very much.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Get the Firmware from here:

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/

Flash using Odin
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
Thanks. Will try. Then after flashing the firmware go through the rooting process again?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Yup.

You do have the Samsung Drivers on the pc?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
I think so. My note 3 is being detected when i tried using odin.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Well - You should be good to go - Re-read the OP when you get to the Rooting stage...
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
Thank you in advance. Ill try this. Will flashing the new firmware this remove all my apps?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Yes - But it's better than a phone that won't boot ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
Would you know why my device does not continue rooting? Ive watch a video that passes through the same screen and continue until the booting process whilst mine got stock in the rocovery booting part.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Read the "Note" in this post from Chainfire:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=46098944

Did you follow these steps?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
Yes i did. But in my odin, i cant uncheck the auto-reboot feature.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
First - You are certain that you are trying to flash the correct CF-Autoroot file for your device?

Yeah - I can't uncheck Auto Reboot on mine either.

If you are confident that the Root process has completed - Pull the battery - And Reboot the phone manually - I don't know if this will work.... But I can't think of anything else to try..
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
Yes. Mine's a galaxy note iii sm-n9005. I did find a way to uncheck in the settings but it remains stuck.

Oh men. But thanks anyway. :)

---------- Post added at 01:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 AM ----------

One more question. Do i have to check usb debugging in the developer section in the settings before using odin?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
ABSOLUTELY - Yes!

Sorry - I just assumed that you had.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
Wait ill try one more time.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
Same result. :(

I took a picture of the odin screen. It says im running custom.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Ok - Just to be clear.

You used Odin to flash the Stock Firmware first?

Did you flash anything else?

Which carrier are you with?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] jaycb420:
Should be flash stock firmware. Reboot. Flash root. Reboot. Flash recovery reboot. And all should be well and dandy. Then restore from your backup
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] anonymous0123:
I just used odin to flash the auto root package. And no more.

Don't have carrier.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] ferdeenandxda:
Knox

I've a question...

Does this affect Knox counter?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
Yes - Chainfire says that in the OP ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] mikkelrev69:
NA6 successfully rooted, running smooth.

Tip for you that don't know:

When you unpack the zip file a configuration folder for Odin appears. Open and you can untick autoreboot or change other settings...
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] danixal:
Hello guys. Tried this method on my SMN9005, followed each step (to the letter) and got "recovery is not seandroid enforcing". I tried a few more times without auto-reboot and manually going to recovery by vol up + home + power button, but still getting this msg on the bootup. When i go to the download mode again, i can see my knox is already triggered.

This is my 1st root, have not tried de la vega before. I'm on N9005XXUDMJ7. Anyone got any solutions?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] hey_joe:
Which issue are you asking help for? The " seandroid not enforcing " on bootup or the triggered knox?

There is no current solution to rollback knox to 0x0. Once it's triggered it'll stay that way until somebody comes up with a solution.

As for the seandroid not enforcing, it's normal for that to show up on boot if you have custom firmware/kernel.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] danixal:
Thanks for your reply. I have no problem with knox triggering. But the problem is that it won't go into recovery to complete the rooting process because of the seandroid not enforcing.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
It sounds like you already have Root - So like hey_Joe said - it's not clear what you are looking for?

You don't use recovery to Root the phone - You have to put the phone into Download Mode - Then you need to flash a custom recovery with Odin - TWRP is my recommendation ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] jaycb420:
TWRP +1
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] ads7112:
I have exactly the same problem with the same firmware

The issue is quite simple ....

after the odin flashing the phone shows that screen indicating that the seandroid not enforcing and DOES NOT BOOT

the only way on is to

take the battery off,

put it back after few seconds,

go in download mode

start phone

BUT THE PHONE IS NOT ROOTED

I tried all I could imagine

RE-DONE FEW TIME

WITH AND WITHOUT AUTO-REBOOT

INSTALLED TWRP

nothing chages

HELP WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED

THANKS

Try flashing SuperSu
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] ads7112:
I have installed from market ... but does not start because does not see the device as rooted

Can be flashed using ODIN ? is there a suitable version for ODIN ????

from Chainfire page I have not found it .....
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] raver099:
You have no idea what you're doing right?

SuperSU from playstore is only an app. You need to download te supersu.zip and flash that one from recovery. Only than the app will work....

It should have been be installed with auto root though...
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] ads7112:
I have no idea...... it is true

I found the zip file and now I am trying to install using TWRP

I think our problem is that me and ads7112 can't get boot into recovery mode after the cf-root flash and complete the process. When we try to boot into recovery, we got the message that "recovery is not seandroid enforcing".

[MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION], I am from India using N3 SM-N900, when I enter download mode I cannot see any Knox counter. I have also not activated Knox since I bought my mobile. Will rooting still impact the Knox counter? This is probably the 1st mobile which has not been rooted in 1st 1hr of my buying because of this Knox issue. All my previous mobiles were rooted.

On the screen, it's saying that recovery failed to verify. I can reboot the phone just fine and going back into ODIN shows everything as clean and untouched. I thought this might have been that bit about not auto rebooting but when I reboot into recovery, nothing happens.

Also on ODIN I can't change any tickboxes, so I can't untick autoreboot.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] GhorX:
neoKushan - same device, used original (USB3) cable in

USB2

EDIT - no KIES, drivers from S4 toolkit 1.02.

Hmm, I'm using a USB2 cable in a USB2 socket so that may well be it - though I'd be somewhat surprised. I'll try the USB3 cable when I get home.

So I thought I'd let everyone know how this worked out:

1) I returned the phone to T-Mobile (but only because I needed a phone immediately, otherwise I would have stuck it out), they gave me a lot of sh*t, but I stood my ground, played dumb, and they caved.

2) I managed to get this to work on the replacement phone and there were a couple things I did differently:

I finally managed to find Kies 3, which is in a small link just below the Kies download they point you to. You have to look further down the page. My phone connected seamlessly with Kies 3, which would have solved my issue yesterday, except I was trying to connect to Kies 2.6.

I switched usb ports, but still used the SGN3 cable that came with the phone. I'm pretty sure this step didn't make a difference, but i thought i'd mention it, in case it becomes relevant information to someone else later on. I'm using a Windows 8 , Acer Aspire S7-392 Ultrabook, fyi.

Canadian Note 3?

Greetings!

I'm picking up my Canadian Note 3 from Rogers tomorrow morning. I noticed the following in one of your very early posts:

SM-N900W8 (untested): CF-Auto-Root-hltecan-hlteub-smn900w8.zip

I see the code "hltecan", which looks very similar to my current S4, which had a model jltecan. Does the "can" refer to Canadian?

If true, how confident are you that the Auto-Root file above will work? Remember, although Rogers/Bell/Telus phones are almost always fairly identical to the AT&T version, the Canadian models are usually NOT bootloader locked.

Thanks,

Peter
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] neoKushan:
Well I just got home and tried it with my USB3 cable and it worked first time! Not sure if it really was the cable or of the machine I was using made a difference but I'm all rooted now.

Bye, bye, Knox!
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Chainfire:
It's probably the Canadian model, yeah. Once you get your device, boot it up, go to "Settings -> About device" and make sure you have the W8 model (reports this back here as well). If your device's bootloader isn't locked, I'd bet money it'll work.

[MENTION=3110350]hey_joe[/MENTION] is the file you link different from op? My rooting works fine on 4.4.2 sammy, but when I change to cm11 I'm getting the same seandroid message. Kinda sucks since I finally made my mind up for leaving tw :p
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] hey_joe:
That file is the older cf-auto root for 4.3 roms. The updated one by CF seems to have a bootlooping effect on phone with 4.3 roms.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] raver099:
Ok so sammy 4.4.2 to cm11 will be having problems till someone solves it I suppose?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] hey_joe:
Some CM11 are still based on 4.3 roms like Temasek's which is probably why you're bootlooping when you installed one. I'm not sure if you know that once you flashed 4.4.2 you won't be able to flash back any 4.3 based roms.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] shaggyskunk:
You can flash back to TW 4.3 - So long as you didn't flash the bootloader.

ie; If someone flashed the Samsung leak - Then you wouldn't be able to Flash back to 4.3 - But if you flashed Temasek CM11 - You can still flash 4.3
