At first I didn't trust them. Their site is very slow, nobody knows them, nothing special. And after the comment from somebody that triggered 0x1, I was even more afraid.

Well I took the risk. Just downloaded from their site (current version 1.1.1).

It started downloading samsung drivers with 2 kb/s (riduculous). Thankfully I had them in the Kies folder so I installed them and I was able to skip this step.

Clicked on ROOT button. It was slow process (around 3-4 minutes). Phone restarted twice. And boom - ROOT on device.

Just checked download mode -

Device Status: Custom

Knox: 0x0

Cheers:p

Titanium Backup is not working properly on my XXUBMJ3 with Kingo Root 1.1.0.

Restored apps are force-closed after few seconds of a black screen.

Did your restored apps work properly after Kingo Root 1.1.1?

If so, can I just re-root my Note 3 with the new version of the tool, or do I have to un-root and/or reset before that?

Thanks in advance for any information.

which firmware is on your phone?

[Galaxy Note 3 General] cottino:
What is your current firmware?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Jack Barrett:
MJ3 with CSC: ITV (SM-N9005)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] cottino:
Maybe the cause that triggered knox status is new mj6-mj8 firmware and not kingoapp 1.1.1
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Jack Barrett:
Just installed MJ6 BTU over MJ3 ITV with ODIN without wipe. 0x0 still but lost root. Now rooting again with Kingo and I will let you know if that triggers 0x1.

Edit:

Stuck on "Fetching sripts" for 5 minutes. Their site is ultra slow.

It tries to download this:

http://www.kingoapp.com/download/android_root.exe.sig

http://android-rom.b0.upaiyun.com/script__ch_v4__/samsung_SM-N9005_flash.sbin

http://android-rom.b0.upaiyun.com/script__ch_v4__/samsung_flash.sbin

Disconnected, tried again, went past fetching scripts and it was doing the same thing over and over and reset my device like 10 times and I stopped it. Obviously MJ6 has better security against root.

I said a few pages back it triggered Knox
[Galaxy Note 3 General] programatix:
You should have bought SuperSU Pro and enable keep root alive option... but it would only work if it's an OTA update, not via Kies.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ALERTas:
Hi, so I have used this method to root a latest BTU firmware and it triggered Knox as it installed costume recovery for some reason.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] yuu.hack:
so, no data wiped after rooted?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] njfoses:
I have been debating using this method for a few days now on my vzw note 3 as i really dont want to wipe which the current root de la vega requires. I am still a bit concerned though reading posts about either your pc or phone creating a data connection with an ip address in china after using this method.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] hayabusa08:
Just used this app few mins ago. Decided to root using kingoapp as i aint gonna wait to download the full firmware which vega required. And i cant stand not rooting my phone. Habit i guess.

Results. 10 mins. Rooted. Knox warranty 0x0. No wipe. All stays as it should. Only status shows custom. No issue though. Happy and on my way to remove bloatwares.

im on MJ1 if it matters.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] BlueBlazer23:
Ok, i am reading all the root threads since yesterday, and it blows my mind, so let me ask you this folks:

Is it currently the best way to root N3 with the newest firmware?

If I root my device, my rom stays as it was? I mean no problems with camera, WiFi or others?

Thank to that, will it be possible to remove Samsung apps, restore app data from titanium (required in order to install Whatsaap Plus), use ViperFX and LBE security?

[Galaxy Note 3 General] IceCreaMan:
I am i the same boat as you but 2 things are unconfirmed and have not been addressed as of yet..

1. This root makes some kind of connection to a china based IP address.. <- this concerns me

2. A user on page 6 says that the restore from titanium backup caused the apps to force close
[Galaxy Note 3 General] njfoses:
Said screw it and took the plunge. Took 5 min, didn't wipe any data, knox still 0x0. Worked great for me on the vzw note 3.

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------

Your #1 was a concern for me as well. Many users of sony devices along with htc and samsung users have used kingo with no issue so i think the sample size is large enough now. I believe it only connects to download drivers for your specific device.

#2 is an issue with titanium regardless of root method used. This can be fixed with this app http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2473090 until the titanium dev fixes the issue.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] BlueBlazer23:
Exsqueeze me, but I think you're wrong.

That suspicious connection to China is when you're using Vroot method (Ngyun.com or smth). Here is nothing suspicious, except 2 or 3 people went 0x1 in Knox, which is holding me back of rooting my N3... till tomorrow probably:D

Now, back to my first question, after rooting with that method, is the functionality of that rom still full (except Titanium issue)?

knox will be tripped to 0x1 if you flash any custom recovery eg cwm,twrp
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mvansomeren:
With Kingoapp you can root and unroot. The only change made is that your phone status changes to Custom. My question is that if you decide to unroot using Kingoapp, does it return your status back to Official?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ultramag69:
No, reflashing stock firmware will take care of that...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] HokutoNoFred:
I don't know about v1.1.1 of Kingo Root,but for v1.1.0 it was said that the root was OK only with some applications, not all of them.

That's one of the reasons why some people preferred to stay with Root De La Vega.

So, "root is root" might be more complicated than that...

[Galaxy Note 3 General] mvansomeren:
Thanks.

What about if I used xposed to spoof the phone the Official status prior to unrooting. When I unroot using kingoapp will it stick or go back to custom?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ultramag69:
Won't work as it requires xposed framework to spoof the setting every time it reboots. No root = no xposed framework means "Custom" status...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mvansomeren:
Okay, thanks for taking the time to answer my questions. I wasn't sure how xposed framework did the trick but now I know :good:. I don't anticipate unrooting once I root but if something were to break on the phone and since there isn't an MJ4 Official .tar file yet, I may just wait... not sure that I can hold off for much longer though ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] RDA3440:
[MENTION=1244939]dallastx[/MENTION] Could you clarify your statements, please? I'm sure there are a number of people who are confused about what this means.

After using Kingoapp, is it my mobile device that will be connecting to this server in China? Is it a persistent connection? What information is being sent to this server and how often?

Thanks!

Doesnt appear to be anyway to skip this part...or have I missed something?

[Galaxy Note 3 General] BlueChris:
Anyone tried to full wipe and pass full stock and knox stayed 0?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] KennyLegend:
Ok... I installed the drivers manually and it rooted fine. BUT...GUYS BEWARE. ..

It tripped my knox warranty flag and somehow I have CWM installed. It's now 0x1. I'm on MI7 firmware and used kingo V1.1.1.

Good thing I have this thing insured.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] BlueChris:
Doh really? This thing had any options to choose before rooting or is 1 click scenario?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] KennyLegend:
One click. I heard a rumour that it should only trip knox warranty on newer firmwares as there's a system partition check implemented by Samsung but I'm on an older one. I guess it was because of CWM recovery. Can't understand how this got installed.

Bare in mind.... kingo and vroot have both been recommended by designgears. This worries me.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] viniciusrsouza:
Dude, trust me, I don't want to offend or make fun, but I laughed so much after reading what you said! This was great! hahahaha

"it connects to China and download things"

Well, I agree with you, both here and in the Vroot thread. I'm also afraid of these "strange" and unknown methods. By the way, I will use the CF method and simply will not bother anymore about this Know b*llsh*t! I need custom recovery, mainly to boost the sound of my Note 3, so earlier or later I would need to mess up this Knox thing.

Need to say also that here in Brazil the Samsung support centers in general don't bother about these status in the Download Menu like how many times a custom ROM was flashed and etc. In general they provide warranty even if the device were modified.

And guys, don't know what about in your contries, but Samsung Brazil is providing 6 months warranty for bad use like damaged screen and damages caused by water. So, just search about this where you all live because if they bother about Knox 0 x 1 flag, you could just wash or crash your devices and ask for a new one! hahahahaha (Just kidding, of couse!)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Impuls3101:
I used version 1.1.1 to unlock my SM-N900V without tripping knox. The only odd thing I noticed is that lookout security said an app called "mtkcamera" was installed during the initial rooting process. I have searched every where on the phone and can't find it. I have spent way to much time over the last day monitoring all my connections and logging everything thats running. I am 99% sure it's gone but it makes me wonder why it was copied to my phone in the first place.

People who root with Vroot report that this program is installed and are suspicious with what it does on the phone.

you have little china on ur phone and couldnt find it? strange, maybe its gone because it downloaded the root to your phone? :)

Sorry guys, would a connection to russia better for you? i would like a connection to hawaii....

Is there a connection to china after you root it? Here are so good people and no one find a connection after rooting with kingo? Then there is maybe no connection to china? dont know...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] BlueChris:
Sure m8 a connection in routing process that sends all Mr personal data and bank and credit accounts also my imei etc to make decent China clones is enough.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hooloovooloo:
My friend hard-bricked his Galaxy S III while flashing a custom rom. At this point, it is completely unresponsive, and the LED does not light up under any circumstances.

I found a couple of guides on this website that appear pretty legit, but I'd need a debrick file for the international (european) version. However, I have thus far not been able to find one. I have another friend with a similar, working phone, and I could try getting it from his (as I understand it), but I am in doubt whether it would actually do anything - is it SDS, and will need a new motherboard, or can it be fixed with software?

I'd really appreciate any kind of help!

Thanks very much in advance.

I have a Huawei P6, and it was bought at China. I am at Brazil and would like to use a custom ROM, or European/International ROM...

I already Rooted it with and installed TouchRecoveryInstaller that comes with ClockWorkMod Recovery v6.0.3.6

I am trying to install the Blueandroid MOD

Here are my problems:

1)When I try to update the ClockWorkMod to 6.0.3.7 or execute Blueandroid installer the external sdcard isn't recognized:

E : Can't mount /external_sd/

2)I formated this sdcard as FAT32 and put only the update...zip inside it and for a miracle it was reconigzed, twice... but when I tried to execute it, I receive another message:

E : Signature Verification Failed

I already spent too much time and effort trying to discover what's wrong with the sdcard.

I've heard somewhere, that we should restart twice in order to see some the sdcard working when we do the emergency reboot , or something like that.

Please help.

[General Questions and Answers] shackleford:
My MB865 (Atrix 2) started losing signal and restarting. When it does re-acquire a signal, it is always a strong signal (5 bars ~ -65-dB). The problem has been getting worse and it is getting more difficult to acquire/retain a signal. Often the phone will spontaneously re-start as well. The re-starting seems to happen more frequently when I am charging the phone or do not have a signal.

My son has the exact same phone with the exact same configuration, and his is working perfectly. Side-by-side, he will have 5 bars while I'm not able to get a signal at all.

I have been told that this is likely an antenna issue, but I'm truly not sure.

Could a faulty antenna cause the re-starting issue described above? If it is a faulty antenna, is this something I could replace myself? I was unable to turn up anything useful in my search for a replacement antenna for this phone, so I'm not sure where to even get one.

Thanks in advance.

i was wondering, is there anyway to port Smartshare to an installable APK for use in other roms? :confused:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] SimonTS:
Anything is possible, but it is highly unlikely as the LG apps require the underlying framework to function - which means they won't work on non-stock-based ROMs.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] mabz2k:
that sucks, so it's like some Samsung apps? Is smartshare the only app that can stream videos over wifi direct to a tv? is there any other app that can do this too? so far i have found none.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] JoinTheRealms:
There not much widespread adoption of wifi direct in applications, but im sure there must be something out there to perform that function. Most modern tvs are capable of streaming for a upnp share, might be able to set one up on your phone.

Well my contract ended today, so I decided to jump ship to AIO Wireless... Since T-Mobile is getting rid of their grandfathered plans and making people upgrade, I decided to leave, and join the Pre-Paid community :victory: -- Cant wait until the Nexus 5 drops haha..

I'm SuperCID'd sim unlocked (did it last night), rooted (been rooted for years, the sensation is not my first rodeo), and all that Jazz...

Anyways.. I did everything that I was supposed to get everything activated and working.. typed in the new APN settings and got my data working and all..

My problem is that i do not get connected to 3g or 4g... I called CS and they said that everything looks fine.. (they dunno whats going on).. :rolleyes: go figure.

I have 2g. Its pissing me off...

Just wondering if anybody else made the switch and are having/had similar problems??

Thanks

EDIT: Well i called back hoping to get another person to talk to.. and that somebody told me that since my phone is from T-Mobile, I wont be allowed to use their 4g.. --- My question is now this -- Since my phone is unlocked, wouldnt i now be able to use AT&T's network?? Or is the phone itself still required to use TMO's frequency? I'm confused.

EDIT 2: Did more research around xda and found that i could change the modem to att's frequency bands.. I flashed the modems via terminal emulator and even put in canadian radios.. well, both didnt work. when i flashed the modems, they didnt change the bands.. I would need the international sensation that uses att bands for att to work (thats why i flashed the canadian radio just to see if that would work) This is probably why we dont hear anything about our tmo sensations getting used on other carriers because no one has successfully changed the modem.. We cant change the bands that our phone comes with.. Damn.

Well, I guess i have to live with 2g for a week or so until the nexus 5 drops.. Then i can just slap my sim card in there and experience LTE :)) -- but in the mean time, ill be using wifi.
