I have a Samsung allshare Cast Dongle and is working fine, also my Samsung Video Hub app is running and showing things (i never used it so i dont know if you need something else to check in there).

Keep in mind that all this work only if you have System Status Official with Wanam Xposed, if not then my connection with all share cast dongle is terminated immediatly.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] jetbruceli:
From my experiences with the note 2 and s4 you will have to flash YOUR stock rom and factory reset. Once the system has identified that you were rooted it will keep that status unless you clear out all
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Snake-Plissken:
Hi there,

That could be the issue too with my note 2 but I had custom recovery and Rom running.

Where can I find wanam xposed? Can you shoot my a link please?

About video hub it should work then.because before it was closing itself immediately after start. Thanks this are really great news.

Now I just have to wait for the right files to root and get wanam exposed.

Requesting nordic CSC

I would like to request a new CSC my info is:

AP: N9005XXUBMJ3

CSC: N9005NEEBMJ3

So. I am really excited about this (just realised now that we can have root), but I am a bit unsure about what to do when having the MJ3 AP.

I have already d/l the AP, just need the CSC, but has anyone successfully done this having matching MJ3 AP and CSC without tripping knox?

I have read a lot in the thread, but couldn't find anyone with success!?

Also, has anyone come up with anything that you shouldn't do after rooting (apart from flashing a custom kernel/recovery)?

I am really just interrested in replacing my host to remove ads.... lol
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] BlueChris:
M8 Wanam xposed is in playstore and xposed framework is in general development forum, do a search I cannot do it now I'm driving lol.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Kid141221:
works like a charm. Thanks for your contribution. Also, how do I set the System back to Factory because its now changed to Custom.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] BlueChris:
You also need wanam xposed
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] jetbruceli:
That still doesn't really make it official. You need root for exposed. When your trying to go unrooted and want official you need to have stock rom with a factory reset. I actually factory reset before I flash back the stock rom
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] klau1:
So the only way to return back to true stock requires factory reset even after flashing the stock rom?

How do you restore all the apps and data afterwards without root?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] jetbruceli:
I just redownload them.

You could have made a back up on Kies but I am not sure if it backs up when your system is modified
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] klau1:
Aside from Kies, Is there no way to restore appdata then?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] medicus07:
You did so... or you plan to do so?

I´m wondering if factory reset on a modified device will cause knox counter 0x1...??? Would it be the better way just to flash stock firmware with ODIN?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] jetbruceli:
Yeah you can use this but still need a computer.

Check out "Helium - App Sync and Backup"

---------- Post added at 03:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:27 PM ----------

No I haven't rooted the note 3 yet. To many issues that seem to flag knox. But if I did. And then wanted straight stock with unroot. I would I have Kies restore my device. It's the safest and slowest way of retuning to straight stock.

People on here have had root without triggering knox but flashed a stock rom with Odin and some how tripped the flags on knox.

I just need my warranty since there is no way I can buy another 700 euros phone in the 3 months
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] medicus07:
Got your point... :)

I agree, that kies method would be the safest way to go back to stock...

Also in case of lost root during OTA (super su without keep alvive mode) I suggest the way back to stock and then use ´root de la vega´ method from the begining with new firmware BMJ3 and related CSC!

Got confirmation in german forum...

If you flash new modified firmware (de la vega) an a modified device without going to stock before, you sure will flag knox counter... the case: loss of root during OTA on modified (BMJ1), then someone flashed BMJ3 and CSC DBT on his devices... :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] BlueChris:
All the problems are with MJ3.. with MJ1 there is no problem no matter how many times you flash and root, offcourse if you use match CSC & AP.

[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] xfive420:
root and OTA

So let's say the phone is unrooted stock and there is an update available (OTA or Kies). This is the situation many of us are in when we get our new phone. My goal is to have root and the latest firmware. What's the safest method to get there without tripping the KNOX counter?

I've seen a few recommendations.

1. Start by rooting the phone on the old firmware using the steps in the OP and matches for the original CSC/AP files. Use wanam xposed to get back to status=official. Then do the OTA update which causes you to lose root. Then follow the steps in the OP of copying the files and rebooting again to regain root.

2. Just like before, start by rooting the phone on the old firmware using the steps in the OP and matches for the original CSC/AP files. Use wanam xposed to get back to status=official. Then use the OTA update with SuperSU Pro with "Survival Mode" (keep root alive option) enabled. (Has this been confirmed to work on the Note 3?)

3. Start by updating to the latest firmware using OTA or Kies while still unrooted. Then follow the steps in the OP using matches for the updated CSC/AP files, assuming they exist. (Apparently people have gotten held up here because of incorrect CSC being reported after the update, but supposedly rebooting a few times syncs it back up...) Then use wanam xposed to get back to status=official for future updates.

Is one of these methods better than the others, or is there another option I'm not considering? I can't seem to find this information in this thread or anywhere else, so I apologize if this is posted elsewhere. I'm very inexperienced when it comes to this stuff, but I've managed to root my old android phones through the years thanks to everyone here.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] designgears:
All you have to do is take the OTA and put the files back on the sdcard from the rooting process, reboot twice and you are good to go.

If I downgrade the firmware with odin then root again and update it with kies again ....will this work?

without trigger the knox ect.

The official firmware I download from Samsung updates, and is all in1 file so it`s seems.

That I can flash with odin as pda I think.

Thank you for your great work!

Rooted my N9005 DBT with the AP BMJ1 in the first days and changed afterwards CSC from OXX to my original. Everything is fine and by using xposed and wanam I could flash the newest OTA with BMJ3 Firmware.

Now, wanam doesn't seem to work anymore with new BMJ3... a change of status from custom to official isn't possible at the moment. So we will not get future updates/OTAs, right?

Did you recognized this problem? Any idea?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] xfive420:
I'm just spit-ballin' here, because I really don't know much about these things, but maybe the problem could be with the xposed framework, rather than Wanam itself. If none of the other features of Wanam Xposed stopped working after the update, it's probably not the framework. But you could always try reinstalling the Xposed Framework just to make sure it didn't get corrupted during the OTA. Just an idea...
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] vijavij:
Wait for designgears green signal

IMHO

Isn't it worth waiting for designgears green flag that the OTA is safe?

Little patience would be appreciated. Developers spend a lot of time in getting us tools.

Unless they don't tell us which firmware/patch/OTA is safe we should keep away from these.

Cheers
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] xfive420:
Awesome. Thanks!

Will this method also work if Kies is used for the update instead of OTA? Or should I stick with OTA only?

And has anyone who has regained root using this method encountered the the issue reported by medicus07 where the "custom" status can no longer be changed by Wanam? I'm just wondering if preserving root through an OTA using SuperSU causes a different outcome than this method.

Make sure to get one that there is a vega root for so for a euro 9005 you'd probably want....

(Find eur version at above link) n9005xxubmj3 or n9005xxubmi7

Flash that. Then follow the instructions from the first two posts

But do not put the vega root.sh file or the root files folder on the sd.

Get the update.

Now follow the steps for the .sh and root files folder.

That should do it in your situation if I understand correctly.

Waiting now only answer to question, that many already asked: if there a way to revert system status back to Official with Wanam Xposed after OTA. And I hope, that there is, or Wanam or somebody finds solution to to that in future.

One thing, that I don't understand, is there somehow possible now, after rooting with this method, backup all ROM? Like a Nandroid?

And if somebody knows a topic, where I can find out, what bloatware I can freeze now in my Note 3, can you share a link with me please?

You will have to take this over to the xposed framework thread. It's not a root related issue.

You can use titanium backup and backup all of the apps, that is about the best you will get right now.

Thanks, now I know, that there isn't (yet) possible to backup all ROM. Titanium Pro is familiar, so no problem with that. And if I understanding correctly, if I want, or have to, I can flash with Odin same stock ROM back, that I have now and after that there isn't any marks of rooting, Knox stays 0 etc? No need do too something more, only flashing stock and phone is like a new again? If so, then there is no need to backup all ROM for me. And I didn't update with OTA yet so I have MJ1.
