The newer Odin's Bootloader, PDA, and Phone was renamed to BL, AP, and CP. You use the pda or ap button to flash the .tar,md5 file... if I were you I'd do some more reading on flashing through Odin. Better safe... then bricked.

Thanks. I flashed the one from this OP based on the reports of success. Not sure what the difference is between it and the one from DG's thread. I suspect they are largely the same but packaged differently. If they accomplish the exact same goal the same way, then I guess it matters not.

Could I use the de la Vega root method and then install TWRP recovery?

Or is the CF-Auto-Root required to install a custom recovery?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] irrompible:
I don't believe there is any reason you wouldn't be able to install TWRP after using this root method. But keep in mind, the only reason you would really choose this root method over CF Auto Root would be to keep the Knox warranty in tact, and flashing TWRP is going to trip that, so you may as well just use CF Auto if you're planning on using TWRP afterwards.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimmydigital00:
Thanks for the reply and sorry for the large font in my previous post.

I was just able to activate a t-mobile note 3 on ATT and am getting full LTE. :)

I also just completed the de la Vega root method. I was hoping that there was a chance to install custom recovery without tripping Knox.

I will try it and see.

Thanks again.

Has anyone had any signal issues after using this? I don't know if I had this issue before, but since yesterday I've noticed my signal going from 4G LTE to E to 3G at random, every now and then I'd have zero signal. I know it's not my location, it's happened in a few different places. I replaced my sim and tried a factory reset, but I'm still having issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lm that guy:
Yeah I noticed as well because I always had atleast 2 LTE signal in my house. Now I get 3-4 4G bars and I frequently switch to E and 3G speeds which never happened in my time of having the device until I flash this. But im not really bothered by it since im on wifi mostly
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] hdad2:
Yes, I noticed this right away also. Seems to get stuck on E more than I like.

I have to say I don't have any change. ..I do know that tmobile is doing major changes to their towers country wide. ..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] hdad2:
You may be right, just bad timing making it seem like the mod did it. My connection has been ok in terms of speed today, but slow to respond. For example, opening an application that uses data seems to take longer on the initial connection, but once it is connected, the speed seems ok. Maybe its just perception, IDK. Perhaps this is T-Mo's maintenance or tower changes causing it. Either that to T-Mo can tell I'm rooted and wants to punish me for it...{puts on tinfoil hat}

Still curious if anyone else noticed a change after rooting?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] lm that guy:
I don't know but it seems really weird that we start experiencing this after flashing. Before I would ALWAYS get a LTE signal in my house. Never had I got anything else. Now when I flash this mod I only get 4G and it randomly changed all over the place even to Edge. I tried forcing LTE by dialing *#2263#, it works but never had to do this before.

Edit: I just odin stock firmware, Knox flag did not trip and it did not perform a full wipe because I still booted up to a password protected lock screen with all my root apps installed. I checked the device status and it was official. So no need to perform a factory reset for an official status. But I did anyway :p After, im still experience weird signal but once I force the LTE in *#2263# and switch back to automatic, it stays on LTE so no worries. I think everything is fine.

New to Note 3 and "ROOT" Need Help please

Hey Guys,

This is my first "Android" Phablet (Note 3) SM-N9005. Had iPhones for last 3 years. Time for a change and time for a root

Ive Read all about the rooting process regarding the "Root de la Vega" so i don't trip the KNOX claymore :P

I've downloaded my AP, CSC files, de la Vega Odin v3.09 and the ADB Fastboot.zip (all from XDA latest Sources)

Few questions i have regarding the process before i get started:

- Do i need the INSTALLER. and SAMSUNG USB drivers 1.5.27.0 for the De la Vega root?

- Is the question about flash custom recovery/kernel without tripping KNOX flags the same as using the TITANIUM BACKUP?

- What is this SUPERSu app/program? Do i get it before root or after root? do i need it?

- After i Root it. What are ROM's exactly? How do i know which ones will trip KNOX?

-Lastly where do i gain access to the rooted themes, apps, tweaks etc. *like is there a similar app compared to iphone jailbreak CYDIA?

Need some help thanks guys.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] hdad2:
^^A lot of questions there. Yes, you will need the Samsung drivers installed for Odin to work properly. Titanium backup needs root, but not a custom recovery. So TB will have nothing to do with Knox if you root using this method. If you install a custom recovery (the other root method) , Knox flag will trip. A custom recovery is needed to install a custom rom. I'd suggest not doing that right away if you aren't familiar. All custom roms will trip Knox (because they require the custom recovery).

Super SU is the app that will control root access once the device has been rooted. It will be installed when you flash this method.

You'll find all the fun stuff in the development and themes and apps section.

Good luck. (warning - customizing your Android is addictive. Proceed with caution :))
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] khrizg35:
Recently bought my note 3 and eager to root it just a bit confused about the knox being trip situation. If I do it via this method I don't trip it but can't flash custom recovery or a kernel or rom? And If I do trip knox all I have to worry about it not being able to do a warranty exchange? So if I have insurance I could just make a claim?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] hdad2:
Correct, a custom recovery means a Knox flag (today anyway). But this method doesn't trip the Knox flag.

What exactly tripping the Knox flag means is anyone's guess at this point. Warranty likely denies a claim, but insurance is unknown.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] spodie:
So ANY custom zip/ recovery will trip the Knox? This is just basic root?

Anyone getting random reboots after flashing this? I flashed this last night did a clean wipe and restore, installed a few root apps this morning haven't done much after that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] parusia:
If you restored with titanium backup you need to use the titanium back up fixer from google play and yor problems going away.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimmydigital00:
I did not get any offer to upgrade and have not checked. Not 100% what you are asking.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bladehawk:
I'm trying to see if Sim unlocked T-Mobile phones will get OTA updates on the AT&T network. I didn't expect them to, but AT&T aid they would.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimmydigital00:
How can I test this? When I go to software update I don't not get any warning messages.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
Wont really know until there is an OTA sent out. So far, there hasn't been one yet.

Note that even if there is one and you can't "get" it, you will be able to apply the same typically in a day or two from one of the developers. It is not a real big deal. They will provide it in a format that won't trigger Knox.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bladehawk:
Thanks, not sure if I care about Knox in and of itself. Wost case I could brick the device and send it back. I doubt they do the work to prove it was flashed. .. If they even can.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ortind200:
are there pics or videos that u guys can post to see how this rom looks?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
It is the same as the stock ROM. All it does it setup root on the device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ortind200:
ok i got 2 questions then:

1) if it has root embedded in the rom, then u dont need to root it to install it? how do i install it?

2) is all the bloatware removed from the rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
The process roots your phone and you have a Stock Rom. With root, you can remove packages you don't want that you could not remove without root and make other changes to the system.

It is exactly the same as the way the phone comes but with root priv and SuperSU installed to grant root to applications.

The instructions are in the OP and are easy to follow.

You really should READ the posting and other postings in the thread to see what issues others may have had so you know what to do.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] final_prototype:
Ok we established that we can achieve root without tripping the knox flag but can knox be used still after root? I've searched but no direct answer. Has anyone tried?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
On many of the providers, Knox is not available or supported VZW for example. I believe using Knox also had a cost to it. Many Turn Knox behind the scenes apps off to eliminate errors that are displayed for some root processes. You can eliminate those Same errors via other methods but few want to use it anyway, they just freeze the processes.

2) has anyone come up with something to prevent tripping the knox flag?

3) if knox has been tripped,wat are the steps to reset it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] NeoAndroid:
1. Any custom Kernel or Recovery WILL trip Knox.

2. You can root without tripping Knox.

3. At this point, there's no resetting Knox.

Last comment by DG on the Original Development section "Hey guys, just use Kingo Root or VRoot (Google them), much easier."

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
No. You can root with Kingo Root. You still can't install custom recovery, kernels etc... just rooting it or you will trip Knox.

I have heard that VRoot works as well, but that interface does not look very friendly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ortind200:
ok i dont understand wat u mean when u say that VRoot doesnt have a friendly look. i thought that VRoot rooted ur phone only like any other rooting method without offering an interface.

also, is there a way to backup ur phone or create a nandroid after rooting it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
What I said was....

If you like an interface which is all in Chinese, knock yourself out. Personally I prefer to see in English what the app is trying to say when doing something as critical as rooting a device. Besides, how many times do you need to root?

Nandroid, no. that requires a recovery.

Backup... depends. Helium appears to work, Titanium Backup if you use the fix app.

I both and then use Cheetah to sync the data off to a workstation so that if I lose my device I can rebuild it quicker.

You can also use an ADB backup, but I have not done that so I don't know how effective it is.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ortind200:
hi krelvinaz.. i want to be able to backup my phone and all its system settings and app settings like a mandroid. i read somewhere that chainfire has an app that will do that without tripping knox.. i think its called Mobile ODIN.. any thoughts on this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
Not heard of it (yet).

Update:

It only supports, Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 so far which is not this phone. Not sure it doesn't/can't effect Knox though.. have not read enough on it yet but I'm guessing it doesn't protect Knox.

Update2:

The description says: Mobile ODIN is the on-device firmware flasher of choice. Just throw those firmware files on your (internal or external) SD card, start Mobile ODIN and flash away. so this is not a backup tool. There is no mention of Knox anywhere in that I can see.
