[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] Action B:
I was looking for the TWRP file. Could you link me to the file or instructions you used?

I am rooted but want to unfreeze knox, accept OTA update and then reroot and install TWRP.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] waywardfrantz:
my experience

It mostly worked. Got my 10.1 updated and booted into download, plugged into computer, booted up odin and flashed p600 or w/e it was. It got about 80% done and froze. Rebooted and tried again, same thing. Rebooted and SU said i wasn't rooted. So I tried to flash recovery (i grabbed the latest twrp for this device) and it worked. Booted back into normal, copied the hyperdrive rom to internal storage, rebooted into recovery, flashed hyperdrive, and boom. All done.

So my steps:

Get the package from here, twrp from their website, and a rom you want to flash.

Boot up 10.1, update software, and copy rom onto internal storage.

Boot into download mode and plug into computer.

Push the p600 thing from the directions.

Give it a bit, mine froze and it was still ok.

Reboot into download again.

Push TWRP.

Reboot into recovery

Flash rom

Edit: I have been having a few sporadic issues, factory wipe and dalvik cache wipe take oddly long, a few roms were incapable of downloading, and then one kept losing root, which i still don't understand. So if anyone has any tips for getting the rom to finish that last little bit, id love to hear them.

long story short?

0. samsung drivers -> computer

when it rebooted it was good to go

oh and I froze 8 knox related programs/services via titanium backup root

Using this gave me root. I had to manually install busybox but otherwise a success. Ive yet to be able to install custom recovery. Any help would be appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] buhohitr:
you just Odin custom recovery twrp 2.6.3.3 or 2.7.1.0 for p600 device
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] TwistedPoet:
I'll try again. Didn't work the first time. Neither did the root file from OP either.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] buhohitr:
Take a look at my post #470 for the correct link to download the correct root file. You need to be rooted first before you could flash custom recovery and make it stick after a reboot.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] robsonline:
I just picked up this tablet. Should I take all of the OTA updates beore I attempt to root? Based on what I have read, it seems like I should, but I wanted to check before I take the updates. I am currently on JB v4.4.2. Thanks for your help.

Rob
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] buhohitr:
haha.. 4.4.2 is kitkat brother, YES, you should take all the way to the latest then root, then after that you can try out some custom rom if you like.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] robsonline:
Ah my bad, you are correct. Thank you for letting me know. I will take all of the OTA updates, and then root. Thanks again!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] Benzzo:
For whatever reason i can't get root access and SuperSU will not install after the odin process finishes. I seems to go through the rooting process without any errors or anything else but once the tablet reboots, nothing. Any ideas?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] neo21:
Can confirm that this works on the SMP-607 too (using ODIN):

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] fryediablo:
Is this a mirror for this file? I can't seem to download it from the link posted, I get a "bandwidth exceeded" error. Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] phoneturf:
Same here. Can someone please create a dropbox link for the file since it can no longer be downloaded from chainfire. I have searched for an hour for this file in other locations, to no avail. It appears to only be available at chainfire where the bandwidth is exceeded. Thanks!

On another note, I did get TWRP installed and made a nandroid using the instructions for 4.3. (I stupidly let the tablet update to 4.4.2 before attempting to root). Could I just install a new rom, which I assume would be rooted? Or would this screw it up?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] fryediablo:
The chain fire link worked for me this morning. Maybe the bandwidth limit is a daily thing. Anyway, it worked like a champ.

Happy new year!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] Finner42:
Have tried to root using the instructions (and files) in the OP, as well as the method (and files) above - nothing has worked.

Tried the files from both links (they both have a different MD5). Odin was successful, rebooted, got the rooting screen, but when I check it with the root checker app, it says the device isn't rooted.

Does it matter what recovery you have while doing this process? Or which version of Odin you use?

I'm on XAR-P600UEUCNK1.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] lightman33:
for the md5, may I suggest there were an update on the chainfire link. My upload is now a little bit older. This file was working last year.

For your recovery, I suppose you have used TWRP to flash the zip file. I can't figure out how to flash root zip file with the stock recovery.

At first boot, use TB to remove knox, may be it can help you.

Another way is to flash a full rom already rooted, you can found them in development section.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] Finner42:
I tried what I assume is the updated chainfire file, but still didn't have any luck - maybe I still didn't have the correct file.

I have the stock recovery - I tried installing TWRP after doing this process, not realising it hadn't worked, so it didn't stick given I didn't have root.

So, as you were saying, is it possible to install TWRP, then wipe and install a custom ROM (eg Hyperdrive), and SuperSU, then reboot - that would do it? or, do I need to get this working on the stock ROM first so TWRP will stick?

Has anyone had success recently and can confirm which file works?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] lightman33:
you have to install TWRP to root or to flash a new rom, you can't do that with stock recovery.

Try first to upgrade this part and you will be able to root your tab.

note that you have to boot into recovery just after flashing TWRP.

hope it will help you, good flash !!!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] bigwavedave25:
I'm having the same issue keeping TWRP on the device, it keeps going back to stock recovery. Build NI1.

I can flash TWRP from Odin no problem, but my options are grayed-out/unavailable to un-check "Auto Reboot" [Bean's Odin3 v3.09]

From the Odin flash the device boots into android... from there I can reboot strait to TWRP [recovery] from TiBu. Then I try and flash an updated TWRP and when I select reboot recovery [from inside the previous TWRP] the device reboots into stock recovery.

I have su access and have removed the 7 KNOX files with TiBu. What files do i need to disable/rename to keep stock from overwriting TWRP? Thanks for any help!

EDIT: ...

Ok, I think my problem was trying to update to TWRP 2.8.4.0 which seemed to not bypass the stock recovery install process?? ... I flashed TWRP 2.6.3.3 initially, and stuck with it this time instead of trying to update, now I can successfully boot into TWRP from wherever. I'm a little confused by this, not sure what is going on with the latest TWRP not sticking.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] Vol4Ever:
I just D/L thru mega link in beans original message. Unzipped file & ran through ODIN AP slot. On reboot, it showed the script verbiage running through the root steps, but tablet DID NOT ROOT. Further weird is that SuperSU icon was installed, but somehow it has since vanished. Immediately after reboot I ran my licensed (legit purchase!) copy of TiBu and it said root wasn't active. The procedure did trip Knox, which is no big deal since this thing is a few months out of warranty anyway. Just trying to figure out why the CF file didn't work. Wonder if it has anything to do with versions? I started with 4.4.4 and now the tablet's "About" screen shows 4.4.2. Good news is that everything on the tablet appears to still be working fine.

Any ideas??

EDIT: One more item of note. When ODIN finishes its thing, the PC software interface status shows RESET on a blue background, and the instructions say that should show PASS on green. Tablet auto-reboots from there without me having to do anything.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] Stocklone:
I haven't disabled the hardware buttons yet. But I did install Button Savior with the Pro upgrade and the HD JB skin. I set it up to appear with a swipe up from the bottom right corner and disappear after I click a button and 5 second auto-close. I killed the vibration feedback since that was annoying me. I also switched the order to back, menu, switch, home and power. I have power there just so the other buttons aren't so close to the edge. It works really well for me. I'm not sure I want to bring back the stock Android virtual buttons since those got moved to the center with 4.2 and aren't much more ergonomically friendly than the physical ones.

I love the having the bottom corner swipe gesture since it doesn't really conflict with anything as most modern Android apps are starting to take advantage of side swipe gestures. I also love being able to navigate with my thumbs again.

ID COM will turn green and show device. but i can't get odin to see my tab. i have samsung drivers installed. but for some reason when i first connect usb. windows was trying to find drivers auto. threw windows update. which failed.

its weird i just rooted my note 3 using same process no issues. (was using a different comp which isn't available to me now)

I guess if you are worried about warranty work in the future, it's a problem.

However, if you just return it for a different one, I don't think it matters. I returned my black one because I wanted a white one. They didn't even reboot it when I returned the black one. They just made sure it wasn't damaged physically.

I have just rooted the Dutch ROM version, not the latest mj4. I can confirm the root works, as does the mj4 recovery. Immediately deleted all the KNOX apps, and even the most little lag is gone. I must say it was really fast before, but without Knox and other bloatware is really how it should come Stock!

Now let's wait for the custom ROMs (and Ubuntu Touch :))

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] Dedline:
Correct me if I am wrong as I have not used KNOX. But isnt there an option in settings to turn on or off KNOX and set it up in the first place? My suggestion would be first, turn it off. Two, if there is an option to uninstall or something do that or reset to factory and don't enable it. If you set it up and there is no going back afterwards, I am no idea then. GL

Cody forgets that we all learn somehow. Hopefully someone will repay his answer with the same (no offense Cody)

Typically updates still come if you only root, but don't take them until you've seen the effects of others doing it. You may lose root and never get it back.

Custom Roms will almost always block updates.

I have rooted my German SM-P600 XXUAMJ2.

And it's running so soft now...I love it.

Reboot and install Rom Toolbox.

Freeze Knox apps.

I was wondering this same thing! I was poking around and opened the KNOX app in drawer and it opened to the setup page I didn't go through the setup process and just left it as is. So if I do not set up KNOX is there no KNOX counter to trip when rooting? Just curious.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] Bizack:
When you boot into Download(ODIN) mode you will see a Warranty Bit 0x0 That is the Know Trip status or the KNOX equivalent for the note 3 in ODIN mode.

The Know apps are still running in the OS if you go into TB and look for them or if you root and run a root app it will pop a KNOX security app that monitors Root. Just Kill 'em All ! (or freeze them)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] Smac7:
typically no, but since your rooted, you can just flashed the rooted rom that somebody usually post the same day (assuming this tab ever get some dev support).

First of all thank you for your answer ! :)

I came from an ipad and an iphone 5.. That's why I'm a noob in android. I'm trying to learn but there are things that I don't get.. That's why I ask here :)

You told me that I can take the OTA updates even if I'm rooted but I have a S4 rooted (root only whitout a custom rom) and I can't update it OTA.. It tels me that my phone has been modified and can't take updates. I don't understand why and it's not really what you told me (or maybe I'm really stupide..) . :p
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] ckelly33:
I am certainly no expert (I ask more questions than I answer) but I can speak from personal experience. From my understanding, rooting is simply removing the secure aspects of the phone/tablet and basically allow you into places that can either "free" your phone or kill it! That said, simply removing those elements and doing nothing else doesn't change anything about how your phone functions, so if an update comes it will be received. Receiving an update can, in some cases, remove root which can be difficult to get back, depending on the update.

Not sure about your phone. Maybe it just hasnt rolled out to your phone. Roll outs tend to happen over time. Or...maybe you inadvertently did more than root. No harm there either, just update manually. Or...maybe I'm an idiot!

Either way, welcome to android.

noob guide to rooting 10.1 2014

I have never rooted before, never felt the need. I love this tablet since the screen is so much better than my original 10.1 but the physical home button is going to be the death of me.

Would anyone be willing to do a noob step by step, in detail of how to root and disable home button?

Root is taken care of on post #1. Disabling the button, I'm not sure about. It may already be here but I haven't seen it. I can guarantee you it will be available if it isn't.

Why don't you go over to themes and apps and start a request thread for it. Somebody will help you.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] SomeGuyDude:
Sounds to me like on the S4 the OTA updates have a "security check" and will reject updates if you're rooted. Sounds like something Samsung would do.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] ckelly33:
I agree. But once you are rooted, who needs Samsung's updates!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] pearsonpsh:
I don't know about everyone else but I think I'm gonna wait till we at least get TWRP before I root my $550 tablet. I'd like to think I'm pretty smart when it comes to rooting, been around the block a few times, but until I can make a nandroid of my current system I don't feel too comfortable modifying the system in a way that could possibly stop future OTAs until further development for the ROM is made. I would honestly advise the same for anyone who even slightly doubted their previous rooting knowledge.

Thanks for the response. I was looking for more detail on steps 1-4. I have never used ODIN, etc.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Android Developmen] hackhound:
Rooting is the process of obtaining "root" access to a device. Usually through some sort of security weakness that gets exploited. Root access is a concept that goes way back to Unix, then Linux, and now Android. Another term for root is "superuser". Someone with root access has total control over the O/S and can wreak havoc on the device if they do not know what they are doing. For this reason the manufacturers do not want the end-users to have root access. This is also why once you obtain root access you should not install OTA updates as the manufacturers have no doubt discovered the security exploit and have modified the code to remove the vulnerability.
