You have to set R/W permissions to the /system dir. Instead of deleting the .apk. You can cut and paste to a dir instead; that's what i did: /sdcard/!temp/system_app. This way you can always revert back if anything.

Also you might want to remove the AT&T bloat. Most end with *_ATT.apk.

Did you make sure you are using the beta from the FAQ in post #2?

SORRY, my bad. I didn't realize it had been updated. I haven't got that far yet, still downloading apps.

EDIT #2: I just installed the framework and its working fine for me....v21_77db90.apk. Is that the version you tried?

Which video player are you using? I have no problems playing video in landscape or portrait and I am on MI1. Also other apps that are allow landscape rotate properly as well.

Do you have it set properly in settings?

I download xposed installer and when I go to install it just won't. I push install and it's almost as tho it doesn't recognize my finger pushing it but if I hit cancel it does cancel. Anyone else having problem just getting it installed thanks in advance for your time and help. Oh and btw m19 root is amazing no FC no hiccups nothing just don't freeze my magazine or it crashes the email app.

UPDATE i used another installer from juice defender and all went smooth.

I just use TB to freeze the app as shown..
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] netnerd:
that' not what i wanted to do. i dont want all apps to rotate when i holding phone landscape, i hate it rotate back and forth.

what i talking about about, "forcing" video player to play landscape no matter what position the phone is in (using rotate app).

this wont work on Mi1 but works on Mi9.

if you on Mi1, just go to play store and download "Ameritrade Trader" and test it yourself, it wont rotate to landscape on Mi1 (even with Auto rotate on) but does on Mi9.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Need-A-Tablet:
I figured out it Meeks, thanks for the suggestion.

I am not sure what happened, but in my desperation, I re-extracted the 2.2GB file into a new directory, and Odin3 worked fine.

I am thinking since I first extracted the original file to my C:\Android and then later moved it to C:\Android\Note3\Root\ that might have had something to do with it.

I am not sure if this related to root or not but may be related with build. Are any of you able to share contact information with anyone via highlighting contact, long hold, then press share via.

Here is what I did. "synchronize" was running each time the ATT contacts opened.

I went into App Manager, All, find "synchronize", clear cache.

It has not come back, even after reboot.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] krazman325:
Second post first page of this thread has link for app. Wanam module free in G. Play. Follow directions in that link and it will work well. Incredible things you can do that used to take a whole custom ROM, including getting rid of unlocked custom opening logo. Remember to reboot twice to get rid of that logo.

Get the Wanam module from the Play store! Not from Xsposed. That's a text describing what you get at Play. That's why it is incompatible.

Root method worked great for me on my AT&T model.

Just wanted to say that I no longer seem to have Night Shot mode in my camera. Was this part of the newer firmware? Did we lose anything else by backing down to the older firmware for root?

I could be crazy, but I swore Night Shot was there before I rooted.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Techweed:
There's no night shot on the Note 3. Just Smart Stabilization that "improves" low light shots.

sd card?

After completing the first two steps of the Root de la Vega root process - successfully I believe, I tried to find the /sdcard/ root.

As described: Copy the contents of Root_de_la_Vega.zip to the root of the internal sdcard

/sdcard/

root_de_la_vega.sh

root_files (folder)

I was unable to find it in the list of folders and files on the phone (??) I ran the root process twice, each time successfully through 'one-click' and 'Odin' but have never found the /sdcard/ shown on-screen.

Would any of you, who have successfully rooted your Note 3 SM-900A, please offer a clue as to what I am missing?

Thank You...Chief

Once you plug in your phone to your comp. You are already in /sdcard/. So copy the files there.

The root of your Internal SD card is the first thing you see when you open it on your PC. There is no folder named "ROOT"... It should look like this

No, as I wasn't sure it was the correct file. Just checking to make sure.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Mad383Max:
These are the files after extraction. You will have to extract the zip file contained in the extracted files to get .sh and folder to place on root.

to enable usb debugging on att note 3 you need to goto settings, about device and then to build number. keep tapping on where it says build number for several times. after it says developer options activated, then the developers option will show up in setting area. hope this helps others.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] sonicthoughts:
So how do you root :) ... this was PERFECT!

Couple of newbie questions:

Now, if AT&T pushes an OTA upgrade will it remove root? Can I upgrade?

Are they able to tell if I have rooted? Can I remove / conceal it?

Worried that they will freak out about warranty issues - or even put something to detect and send to them.

I basically get $400 off using AT&T so it is hard to say no to that but the restrictions are so annoying.

Thanks again!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] sinichi21:
Well most likely the root will be gone that is why people here recommend to disable the ota update app and wait for dev to look into it cause most likely ota updates patch some exploit that the dev has found (ex. unlock bootloader). But yes you can still update if you really like it with the risk of att patching some exploit. Now for the root they can find it out if you return the phone if the root app is still installed. You have 2 options of removing the root 1. Flashing the stock rom though odin 2. You can download chainfire root uninstaller and remove the root.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Budrweber:
I'm not sure if this issue is me doing something wrong or if somethings broke, but can anyone else sort apps into a folder and then have the apps remain in said folder after a reboot? For example I take all the angry bird games and consolidate into a folder titled angry birds. The apps remain in the folder until I reboot. After reboot the apps are all back in my app drawer with an empty angry birds folder. I can live without this, but just curious if it's me!

Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Mad383Max:
No problems here. Might try factory resetting or clearing data on TW and trying again. This is after numerous reboots with messing with xposed.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Budrweber:
This is bizarre if I create a new folder and click the gray plus to add apps they don't stay in that folder after reboot. If I create a new folder go to settings (left menu hard key) choose edit and drag the apps to the folder they stick even after reboot. I tried clearing data as suggested but nothing changed. I appreciate the response though, it got me to a solution!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Mad383Max:

I could be crazy, but I was playing with an AT&T model in the store before I bought one and I swear I saw Night Mode as an option in the shooting modes. I never checked to see if mine had it out of the box before I rooted.

Rooting does not removing any features whatsoever.

Designgear already updated the rooting with MI9 which is the latest for ATT. No night mode.

I know we've seen a few wifi broken posts, but seriously I can't figure this out.

I originally flashed the MI1 the first day successfully and had no issues. I decided to upgrade to MI9 by following the procedure all over again with the updated files.

Everything was successful, and yes I did run N900AUCUBMI9_OneClickBin.exe first. I've done the process twice now after downloading the files again and verifying the MD5. I've walked through the steps 1 by 1 just to make sure I wasn't missing a step.

Wifi is stuck at "turning on" and everything else seems to work.

My baseband version is N900AUCUBMI9 and the Bulid number is JSS15J.N900AUCUBMI1.

Thoughts?

-----------------------------

Edit: I think I figured it out, and I'm an idiot. I still have the old folder Root de la Vega and when I open Odin from the new folder N900AUCUBMI9_VEGA it still pointed to the old folder. So I've been selecting the .tar file from the MI1 version which explains why my baseband and build number didn't match.

I'm surprised I didn't brick it doing something that dumb.

I'm reflashing now to see if it's fixed.

------------------------------

And it's fixed.
