[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Gvaz:
So I'm really confused. I have a verizon note 3 I got on day one, I've never updated it, just in case of some hooey.

According to my build number, it's:

JSS15J.N900VVRUBMI9

Is that locked or whatever? I don't see anything about KNOX in my apps, and it's a new thing to me since my S3 never had that. (I know what knox does).

Do I just root, then install a custom rom if I like?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] yearn2burn:
MI9 - you're a lucky dude. Wise to have avoided the updates. You're good to root.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Gvaz:
So can I just use this md5 checked MI9 firmware straight up, or do I still need to do URDLAV to the file?

The instructions are really kind of not helpful.

http://galaxynote3root.com/galaxy-note-3-root/how-to-root-verizon-galaxy-note-3/ These instructions are much much better.

edit: Created the tar.md5 as stated in the op. Didn't work. Odin said FAILED and the device says SECURE CHECK FAIL : SYSTEM

edit2: system wont boot. searched around a bit and repartitioned with odin's pit feature and the HLTE_USA_VZW_32G.pit file, then used AP to flash the stock MI9 file. Phone now boots. There is obviously something wrong with this process.

edit3: that link actually worked perfectly for me, even though it is a pre-modded file that the OP said not to do. Worked immediately (probably because i'm smart and stayed on MI9)

I tried this firmware "B9150XXUBMI1_B9150OXABMH8_HOME.tar.md5" in terminal, it says "cache.img.ext4 NOT found!" any idia what went wrong. By the way this stock firmware is UK version for Samsung HomeSync GT-B9150.

HELP... I am on csc N900AATTBMI1 rooted and would like to update to MJ5 or MI9 but I am a little confused on how to go about it. Do I need to use the stock MJ5 or MI9 file from Samsung with URDLV to create a custom firmware and then odin it to my phone or am I missing something here. Done a lot of reading but I just want to do it right....Thanks.:confused:

Its possible root 4.4.2 n9005? Without trip knoxx?? Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] richardpwnsner:
Ok, so:

I downloaded stock firmware through Kies (tmp file copy), and ended up with four files: AP, BL, CP, and CSC_TMB (also a DLL). I ran the AP file through the URDLV script in Cygwin, generating an AP file with _VEGA appended. Now, should I:

(1) simply flash the AP file to the phone in Odin; or

(2) copy the VEGA file back into the folder with the other files, compress it(?), and flash that file?

TYIA

Edit: To be clear, I'm on MI7 firmware, and would like to preserve Knox.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Sony667:
I would download the MI7 firmware for your region(e.g. sammobiles.com) and use URDLV to root your device.

Your Kies version will trip knox or fail if it's android 4.4.

You can flash your kies version with Mobile Odin Pro to keep root( you need Pro version for keep root)

Check your Kies downloaded if it's Android 4.3 or 4.4. On Android you need to be carefull, as far I know you need to flash new bootloader, RDLV work only on android 4.3 wirh old bootloader without tripping Knox.

Read first post RDLV works not with android 4.4.2

[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] DrPhant0m:
As a prospective Verizon Note 3 buyer... I have some questions.

Does "trip KNOX" just mean that a counter is incremented, indicating that the software has been modified? (So that verizon can deny you warranty claims) Is this similar to the counter on my S3, that has been bypassed long ago?

If I were to walk into a Verizon store and hold a new Note 3 box in my hands, is there a way for me to tell by looking at the box what firmware is loaded on the phone? (so that I can pick one with an ideal firmware installed)

Let's assume that I'm able to buy a Note 3 with a compatible old firmware on it... what versions of the verizon firmware allow what to be achieved? (see next paragraph)

I want what I have on my S3... unlocked bootloader, custom recovery, permanent root and a custom ROM installed (though I may settle for a stock rooted TW rom to maintain some of the bells and whistles and remove some bloat, if possible). Can this be achieved? I want to avoid the situation I had long ago with my Droid 2 Global... because of the temporary root and the "boot strap" I often had situations where I would have a soft-bricked phone and I'd have to plug it in and run a stock firmware install and would end up with a wiped phone that needed reactivated.

And finally... if I am able to achieve all of these things, do I have the option of going back to stock, as if none of it ever happened? You know... in case the headphone jack breaks or something... I don't want to be denied a warranty claim for having rooted the phone.

Thanks for the time and attention. I apologize for asking these elementary questions, but I looked through the first and last few pages of posts and didn't find the info I was looking for.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Gonzalo1987:
Investigating...

ML1 > MJ so I will set the Knox bit... :crying:

The other 2 questions someone?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] yearn2burn:
1. There's no way you will find a Verizon Note 3 at the store with unlockable bootloader.

2. The only root techniques working now are Kingo (working again, I used it couple days ago) and Vroot. Both are questionable, but if you use either, you should do it with your data wiped and sim card out to prevent any chance of data theft, then install Safestrap recovery and an aftermarket rom. That would bypass any malware installed by either Kingo or Vroot. The only issue would be any question of an altered kernel, as I understand the original rom's kernel is still used for the rom slots of Safestrap (correct me if I'm wrong) or if there is an expoit that works at the early boot level, much like I guess Safestrap works.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] DrPhant0m:
Thanks for the info... tho its a bummer.

So... to be clear... was ANY Note bootloader unlockable, or has it been safestrap since day 1? You just said with confidence none in the store are unlockable... so... I'm still curious.

Thanks again!
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] yearn2burn:
I don't think it ever was. But what has changed is how hard it is to get root. Now must depend on tools of questioned repute from outside xda.

You can buy a developers edition Note 3 for Verizon on backorder for $699 directly from Samsung with unlocked bootloader. If you do that, you can sell your locked phone to partly fund the new one.

[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] cwwjr1681:
Soooo! Interesting news! If you are a member of tmobile jump program. The knox flag DOES NOT

currently

void your warranty. I have a friend now in Samsung and asked him. If you are a member of Jump and have an issue with your phone Samsung does NOT back that warranty or have anything to do with it. Tmo handles it directly and normally sends you back a refurbished phone. The 1yr manufacturer's warrenty is NOT used when you are a member of jump. TMO atm is still clueless to know and tbh he said they really do not care. Just some food for thought. ;)

I can confirm this! Recently my screen stopped working so tmo sent me a new phone. The NEW phoen actually had knox warranty already tripped at 0x1! ROFL Just a prime example of how tmo just doesn't care. Just unroot the device before you send it back! I guess tmo just fixes these things when you send them in then resends them out NEVER checking knox flags

That's odd. The link seems ok when i click on it. Anyways just type "Odin flash file" in the search bar. Odin works on my Samsung S3 and Note 1
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] DrPhant0m:
OK...

Believe it or not, I went to BestBuy today, and bought a Note 3 with MI9 firmware on it.

(Pro-Tip... it's on the sticker on the box by S-W Version: so it's super easy to tell if you're getting a good one or not before even buying it)

Now... I don't understand which firmware I should run through the URDLV script and flash in Odin. MI9 firmware, or MJE firmware.

In the OP... it says to get the firmware from Sammobile. I have an SM-N900V, and the only firmware available on Sammobile is

MJE

.

However... in the OP, there's a link for N900V right above How to use Universal Root de la Vega: for the N900V, and it triggers a MEGA download (super slow so far) for the

MI9

firmware. (Side note... I downloaded from http://d-h.st/rKM instead... someone tell me if this is kosher? DutchDogg54 uploaded it, and he's got 1500+ thanks... I just want to make sure that using this firmware is OK for URDLV purposes.)

So... which one do I use? If I use the MJE firmware to make the URDLV firmware, will it trip knox, even though I'm starting with MI9 installed? It says in the OP if you have >MJ4, then you will trip knox... and MJE > MJ4. Hence, I'm worried about flashing anything with MJE.

I don't want to have gone through the trouble of sourcing an MI9 Note 3 just to blow knox on my first try.

I created a _VEGA file for the one from Sammobile (MJE), as well as one from DutchDogg54 (MI9)... So, I just need to know which one to flash. (you know... before my next question, that is. :eek: )

This should be an easy question for someone that has done this before... Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] DrPhant0m:
So... upon reflection, I realized that I might as well flash the VEGA'd MI9 file that I made, since I know I can't downgrade anything, and I figured it wouldn't hurt to flash the modified MI9 VEGA file... so that's what I did.

Unfortunately... the flash FAILED in Odin. :( (spoiler alert: I got back to stock, and knox is untripped... no harm no foul, I think)

When it failed... ODIN said "FAIL" at the top (in the box where you want it to say PASS!)

and I got back to stock. And for the record... I am sure I'm on MI9, and anyone here can confirm it in this screen shot I took AFTER all of this went down:

So... I'm not going to try to root this thing again until I get some advice on what firmware I should be using... and what might have gone wrong.
