su lost after system update

I've followed the instructions to obtain root successfully.

but after system updating to NA8, su binary seems to be permanently lost

so, can i patch the NB3 system image by make_rooted_system then flash? will it work?

thanks in advance!

[Galaxy Note 3 General] dark_lancer:
Thanks, but I dont know.. The GNT3eXT can activate the sequence of key to enter service menu. Its seems to set KeyStr to ON.

I find the page seems set KeyStr and FactoryMode both to ON.. I don't know thats why..

And have anyother way to root the phone? The main thread contains rooted ROM may have too much problem.. such as camera cant be activated (report: Camera Failed)

Sorry for my poor English..

Any word on Kit Kat for SCL22?

I am Aquaman!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Hello everyone,

I am thinking about buying a SC-01F or SCL22 phone in few days, would like to ask couple of questions.

1 Is Felica and NFC a same thing? For both Docomo and AU phones? I don't need Felica at all, but would like to keep an NFC. Or are they somehow merged together?

2 By reading the thread I somehow got an image that root for stock rom is pretty glitchy still, at least on Docomo model. Not stable. Is that so, or root from the second post works ok now?

3 If I flash the custom rom - what except Felica and/or NFC shall I lose? I don't care bout Docomo or Au bloat, but really would like keep two apps that both providers have: Area mail (an app that warns about earthquakes, tsunami etc.) and sp mode mail (ezweb.co.jp/docomo.co.jp). Will those apps work if I flash custom rom?

4 Does CWM on stock rom disables felica? Somewhere in this thread it said that after flashing rom back and wiping, Felica will be enabled again. But CWM will be gone?

5 Which model is easier to root in general (probably keeping stock rom and Felica) - Docomo or AU?

Sorry for many questions. I do appreciate your help guys!!! Thanks in advance!!!!! :fingers-crossed:

P.S. Also, anyone tried the rooting method from this video?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0Ck6hK4qWs

It seem pretty easy, Felica works, and it does not require GNT3eXT. My only worry that the Android version on that video is 4.2, while new devices have 4.3 now, I think... Will it work that way?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ducmthai:
1. I don't know, but Felica works based on NFC. If your KNOX == 0x1, then both WON'T work.

2. I don't know, but for AU version, the rooted img works smoothly, esp. it keeps OFFICIAL status on Download mode, Felica & NFC work, KNOX 0x0.

3. It depends on the rom you flash. In any case, playing with the modified stock rom is better.

4. I'm not sure about this, but in theory, Felica is lost if you flash custom kernel/recovery. CWM is something you should avoid if you want Felica.

5. I'm not sure about Docomo version, but for AU version, please see 2. above.

---------- Post added at 11:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------

[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
ducmthai,

Thanks for reply!!! You really helped me out :highfive:

Good to know modified stock rom from this thread works fine! At least, for AU phone... Somehow, after reading all 32 pages, I came to opposite conclusion. Posts about lags etc... :eek:

Someone with docomo phone! Have you rooted with the firmware (Android 4.3 (SC01FOMUBNA8) - released on 2014/02/12) and method from second post of this thread? Please share your experience. Everything works ok? And as ducmthai mentioned - "it keeps OFFICIAL status on Download mode, Felica & NFC work, KNOX 0x0"???

Thanks!!!

Oh by the way.. where I can see that KNOX status?..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Guys! Please!!

Somebody, share the experience on Docomo device rooting with second firmware (SC01FOMUBNA8) from second post.

Stability, Knox, Felica & NFC.

Long thread, many problems explained, but I didn't find a clear and positive reply on Docomo phone root result.

Got the phone (Docomo SC-01F) already, but without root it's just a toy.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] beast08:
If we do this root for scl22, can we get the NFC and Wireless Tethering to work?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ducmthai:
knox can be observed in phone download mode, you can search google on how to go into download mode for samsung devices.

I can also create a pre-rooted system img for Docomo, however, I dont have any device to test. But if you flash my img, knox and felica will work.

The procedure is quite simple, extract the original system.img, insert root stuff and then repack.

---------- Post added at 03:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------

Ive forgot to test wireless tethering, but NFC works well. Just don't use any custom kernel or recovery. That means, the tar.md5 you flash via odin contains only system and cache img
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Great :good: And a hint on how to extract "system.img" would be appreciated.. :fingers-crossed:

But, what about the rooted firmware image from the first post of the thread? Isn't it a "pre-rooted system image", too? Or are you talking about different rooting method?

The first post claims that Felica will work, but firmware will show custom status...

By the way, you mentioned that AU Note 3 (SCL22) image worked well for you. Was that image from this topic? Because, the links for rooted firmware of AU model in the first post are dead...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ducmthai:
I dont have a device to test. However, in theory a pre-rooted tar.md5 can be created. In practice, I cant assure that it works. You can revert to the original firmware anw, just reflash the stock tar.md5.

System shows custom status in the about page of the settings of the phone. When you enter download mode, it shows Official.

My AU img is crated by myself, by using a script from a Japanese developer, within a Linux environment.

Here's the rooting method for the latest SC-01F firmware described

http://www.duetips.com/2014/03/root-galaxy-note-3-sc-01f-on-omubnb3.html?showComment=1396820130463#c7305623286521435077

What do you guys think about it? Worth trying? But no word on whether it will void KNOX and disable NFC..

A newbie question: if I upgrade to the latest firmware (it's not in the hat), try this root and it won't work - will I be able to flash an official firmware from the hat to my device?.. I could try if I knew it..

But even if I can flash official rom back - it won't get back voided (if voided..) KNOX I guess?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] sto7:
Hello guys,

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 from au KDDI (SCL-22), and was wondering if wireless charge can work with this device.

I understand that I would need to install some device inside my phone (or the S-View Flip Cover), and use a Qi certified charging pad, but when I look for that stuff, I see that the Flip Cover has 5 connection points, and most of the wireless charger receivers I can find (here, or there) have more than 2. Although, my phone only has 2, as you can see in the picture I attached.

Can anyone confirm he got wireless charging to work with only two pins?

Thanks in advance!

By the way, quick follow-up on using my rooted device. I rooted it once in a rush, before going on a trip back to France, so that I could unlock it. I don't remember which method I used but it implied installing ClockWorkMod recovery first, then installing various things (don't remember everything, but I probably found the procedure on xda), and finally follow procedure #2 on this link (install RegionLockAway.apk, then use a service code at every boot). It worked fine, I was able to use my phone in France, but when I got back in Japan, LTE stopped working, and 3G had problems very often.

I flashed it back with a factory firmware, then created a rooted firmware myself, using make_rooted_system on SCL22KDUBML1 factory firmware that I downloaded on this site, the untared.

My phone is rooted, FeLiCa still works (I paid a few times with it), NFC works too (I can read my PASMO card), no LTE or 3G problem so far. Also, I'll check soon if the procedure #1 (from same link as above) works, and unlocked my phone.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] beast08:
Hi anyone knows if thres a way to reset the knox counter back to 0x0? I tried to root my phone before and failed but still the knox counter incremented

And is it really true that if we tripped know counter we cannot use the nfc anymore???
[Galaxy Note 3 General] sto7:
Unfortunately, there is no known way to revert the Knox counter back 0x0 at the moment.

Anyway, I tripped my SCL22's Knox counter to 0x1 a while ago, and NFC (and FeLiCa) still work.

Thanks for putting this post together,

I tried it out and now rooted.

I did have a problem the first time I tried it, I had for got to install GNT3eXT - Galaxy Note 3 Root Enabler Tool and after the phone rebooted it was totally f@*'&kted!!! But I did a search and found your post with a link to the Android 4.3 (SC01FOMUBMIF) - original firmware and managed to repait the damage.

Now Im rooted Im about to embark on the mod journey for the first time.

Many thanks

[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Guys,

I've been looking for a safe and stable way to root my SC-01F device, and looks like I found it

Judging by words of user named ducmthai,

There is a safe and pretty easy way to create a rooted file for SC-01F (also works for SCL22)

It keeps official status, KNOX warranty and NFC working, and doesn't need anything like GNT3eXT t run every time on reboot.

However, it requires some PC knowledge (Linux, can be run on virtual machine under Windows) and some Japanese knowledge (explanations are in Japanese). I have neither, so I post the info here, hoping that someone who needs root and know what to do will create a rooted file and repost it here :)

Ok the info on the rooting itself is here

https://github.com/rara7886/make_rooted_system-rara7886 (press "download zip" on the right),

And the NEWEST 4.3 firmware for SC-01F, released on April, can be found here

http://terafile.co/3dc96037f078

or here

http://rapidgator.net/file/b120e803f5d01a868c89664938ebc7ea

Ok, with this info and links provided, hope someone will help the community and post the rooted result here :)

I would do it by myself, but I really lack the knowledge, for now, and overwhelmed by work to study...

Ok, so I decided to try flashing the rooted MIF rom on dev-host (split into 3 files) and now xposed can write to system!! When the baseband/radio was the wrong version I had some problems with that rom, but with the right baseband version everything works perfectly!

An interesting difference between the two rooted MIF roms:

google drive version: system status = official, dev-host version: system status = custom

google drive version can't gain RW access to system, dev-host version can

Shinkoku

can you upload your build?

i can't build it...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
I didn't build anything yet

I lack knowledge, both PC and Japanese to do it by myself

That's why I posted the links and idea here, hoping someone will do. From what I know, such build should work ok, root, off status, NFC, KNOXx0.

What you mean by - "can't build it?"

Did you try?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
I've tried it, but it causes bootloops.

If you want to play, the best way is to install VirtualBox, get a console version of debian Linux,install that and try it out. Give yourself at least 20GB in the virtual disk.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Wow. Bootloops are not good...

Do you have any idea what causes them?

Which firmware did you try with? Any chance that this method will work with another firmware, like, a later version of?

Don't think my try will make any sense, if someone did already. Unless I do something different...

Just wonder - how did it work for ducmthai. He has AU model, but root explanation is clear that it works for both AU and Docomo

P.S. There was a hint from ducmthai on buildind the image:

Would that help building a proper rooted image?..

Any one knows how to make portable hotspot to work outside japan? Im using this phone here in the phillipines and everytime im opening the hotspot its closing on its own, but when im in roaming mode, hotspot is working properly. Im not rooted but the knox is already tripped.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
I managed to get the latest rooted rom (SC01FOMUCNC3, rooted by this method)

It keeps Knox warranty, Felica, system status is custom.

But, the device reboots often, and some apps do not get su permission (sometimes they do with second attempt, but it usually causes reboot)

Cannot get Xposed to work either, neither Wanam nor original one. What's the difference, by the way. Wanam gets su permission ok, but does not change system setttings. And original xposed does not get su permission at all.

Any ideas on how to fix that?

P.S. User darz wrote on the last page that rooted MIF rom works ok and even Xposed works. I wonder, would it be possible to flash that rom, and then somehow update the system to latest rom keeping the root and supersu alive?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Try running GN3eXt.

It should check and update the scripts.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Yeah, I tried that.

GN3eXt couldn't get su permission at first, but at the end I managed to run it.

It didn't change the situation, though...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Mahou86:
Do you have any update? Still a lot of restarts? Im tired of waiting for docomo kit kat so im thinkin about taking the plung
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
Research about kitkat and the sdcard restrictions.

I might not upgrade.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
True. Me neither. Lots of complaints on the net. Another glitch from Google.

SimmoF, as a creator of this thread, would you be so kind to make 2 things clear?

1 How's the rooting method described in the 2nd post? Is device stable after that? Smooth work, Knox 0x0, Felica available and Xposed runs ok?

Most concerns about stability.

2 2nd post refers to SC-01F's first firmware, MIF. Is firmware upgrade possible in this case somehow? With root being kept I talk about later 4.3 versions from Docomo, not KitKat. Seems device becomes custom, which makes OTA upgrades impossible...

Thanks!!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
1. Using that root method, the device still has restarts.

2. You can't use OTA if you root.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
1 Sad... No way to get a stable work?

2 Right. So, is there another way to update the firmware?

If I flash rooted MIF, and then upgrade to next official version using Odin. Will that keep root alive?

Or, other methods?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] MS3GT1:
Anyone know what that update was about today. I thought it was KitKat. But no dice.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Mahou86:
Ugh, frickin docomo.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
SimmoF

You mentioned trying de la Vega root for SC-01F.

Which .tar did you use? Did dev created one for you as you requested? I didn't find anything that would seem suitable for SC-01F on de la Vega page.

Wonder if trying that de la Vega root once again with newer firmware would make sense.

Still in search for a stable and NFC/Xposed working root method..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Irria:
I have actually flashed the AOJP rom this weekend and so far everything seems to work normally, including data connections, wifi, bluetooth and gps. Haven't had the opportunity to test NFC, though. However, the only build available for SC-01F is quite old and I haven't had very good results building from newer source myself - I have contacted ma34s to see if he could provide any assistance with that.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Did flashing that AOJP tripped Knox?

Also I'm interested whether it's possible or not to use the Docomo mail with that rom

I guess you can see whether NFC works in the settings. If NFC, S beam etc are on that's probably mean they're ok. At least that's how they show it on YouTube..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Irria:
You need to flash a custom recovery to get that rom, so naturally KNOX gets tripped (but I don't really care about that). Seems that Felica got disabled, since I cannot turn on NFC in the settings. As for Docomo mail - you can get the app for it from the Play store, so it shouldn't be a problem (though everyone seems to just use Line these days).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Guys, did anyone try the Universal root de la Vega with SC-01F?

The one from this thread

If you did, which firmware version did you use?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dark_lancer:
SC-01F included the trapped version of toolbox, it cant be remount /system to rw that xopsed cant write app_process to /system/bin although xposed got the superuser permission

I will upload the other version toolbox to u.

sorry for my poor english grammar
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Thanks!!!

The problem is that I don't know what to do with the toolbox, and how to add the toolbox into the firmware

The rooted rom I mentioned was made by another person, not me...

Is there an easy way to add the toolbox into rom?

Or maybe someone is able to get the rooted rom done and share it here for everybody?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dark_lancer:
Just use the recovery to flash this zip package. It will replace toolbox automatic.

Recovery can download for n9005, normal working

toolbox contains multi-call binary that combines many common commands(such as buxybox)

xposed (and others apps e.x. Root Explorer)will use the mount applet (included toolbox)to remount the /system to write status that can replace the app_process
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Thanks again!

One question. Are you talking about CWM recovery?As far as I know, CWM trips KNOX and NFC stops working, too...

Can I use the standard recovery? To flash the zip package?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
The problem is here that installing a custom recovery breaks nfc.

The correct toolbox needs to be included in the system image before flashing.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Shinkoku:
Is there any easy way (without using linux...) to do it?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] SimmoF:
No.
