Just making sure (UDMJ6 with android 4.3)

Hi everybody,

maybe a noob question here, but after a while of WP I'm finally back on Android, so my last root/flash experience dates from a while back.

I'm just wondering: Is het possible to root AP UDMJ6, CP UDMJ4 and CSC N9005VFGDMJ1 with android 4.3 without tripping knox using URDLV? I've read multiple topics and used search throughout them, and noticed messages saying that MJ4, MJ7 or higher are "unsafe", as well as android 4.4.2, but i'm wondering now if UDMJ6 is considered "higher than MJ4" and will trip knox. Android version should (obviously) not cause any issues.

If anyone can share their experience regarding UDMJ6, that would be great! Thanks in advance!

Can someone help me with the following questions? I am trying to decide whether I want to keep my one-week old Note 3 or sell it for a Nexus 5.

I asked the question in CMW thread but did not get an answer. I have an AT&T Note 3 (MJ5), gave in and rooted with Kingo, and factory unlocked to use on Tmobile.

Question 1

: which CMW should I install?

Question 2

: what is the easiest way to install it -- ODIN or RomManager?

I understand the locked bootloader limits the Note 3 to only stock roms (thanks DrPhant0m). But I notice that there are three different development sections for the Note 3 -- general development, AT&T Note 3 development, and Tmobile Note 3 development.

Question 3

: which one of these can I/should i flash roms from?

My goal (at least until the bootloader is unlocked :( ) is to get a stock rom without all the garbage AT&T bloatware that is included. Ideally, I don't want to lose any of the cool Note 3 features (for example, full range of styles tools).

Questin 4

: any recommendations for such a rom?

Thanks!

Please be careful with this thinking.

I bought a GS4 to my wife and it worked flawlessly for 45 days. After that, without any change to the phone, the wifi/bt module became defective and now I am spending half o the phone's price to replace it's motherboard because that module is soldered on the motherboard.

My recommendation is to use the phone for at least 3 months before thinking in make changes that could void the warranty.

Thank you for this amazing and super helpful answer. I'm in the same boat as you and leaning towards keeping the Note 3 -- I will miss the custom roms, but that stylus pen is amazing. I'm going to read up on SafeStrap and trying to find a rom without all the AT&T and Samsung bloatware.

My attempt to root AP N9005XXUDMJ6, CP N9005XXUDMJ4 and CSC N9005VFGDMJ1 using the file searched from www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ with search-string "N9005VFGDMJ1" resulted in the Knox Warranty Void-flag being set to 0x1.

Initially couldn't get Cygwin to work with URDLV.sh, but apparently you have to run URDLV.sh from the current directory (./URDLV.sh), not from a referenced path.

SuperSU attempt to disable Knox when opening the SuperSU app succeeded however, so I'm (at this moment) not getting any Knox-notifications. Also haven't seen any flash-counter symbol, probably since I used the same AP/CSC to flash with.

Hi guys, I just moved from an s3 with a custom rom to a brand new note 3 (n9005) and just getting my head around knox and if I can for now

just to be safe warranty wise, dont want to trip it just incase of possible return issues (if they arise)

Currently the phone is running 4.3 jb and build number mj6, baseband mj4.

could someone please advise the best method to getting root and if vega or kingo would work without tripping knox.

My aim for a while at least and as the phone is brand new is just to remove some bloatware and eventually load a custom rom, by that point

(in a few months) I wont mind tripping knox as the phone would have displayed any hardware issues by then.

I appreciate any advise, thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] sauron82:
This is for everybody:

Your best bet is to do nothing until you're ready to trip Knox. Even if you follow all the instructions things can still go wrong. If you're gonna root, you must accept the possibility that Knox will trip even if you do everything right. My Knox tripped with URDLV on MI6 bootloader, which wasn't supposed to trip it, but hey, sometimes things go wrong.

I'm really tired of seeing all the (same) Knox questions on the boards. Either trip it or don't. If you're worried about tripping it, then you shouldn't be doing anything.

Click thanks if I helped you

I would say that if you ever updated from the origonal release firmware, or you have a new note that was updated already then you should be fine, but if you have the updated software then no Samsung was pretty quick to patch this.

I rooted with MI9 using the original root de la vega. I then installed the pre-rooted MJE in rom slot two of safestrap, but I have since removed it. That did not overwrite anything. I'm still on stock rooted MI9, and I'm fine with it for now.

[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] DrPhant0m:
There's a trend of diminishing returns on preserving Knox for me... when I first got the phone at retail... I couldn't risk it. Now that the worry-free period (verizon) has passed, its less important. The more it seems that manufacturer's defects won't be an issue... the less I care about tripping knox. Anyone that buys their phone on craigslist or swappa shouldn't care at all.

I'm more concerned about kingo/vroot... since the fog hasn't completely cleared. I've seen it mentioned that its been absolved of guilt. Can anyone link me to conclusive proof?

I'm not worried about adware or virii that would be picked up by heuristic scanning software... wiping and flashing a new ROM should clear that up. It's the skimming of information during the initial process that had me worried. You can't reverse that.

I've heard that the IMEI (and similar) skim was removed in recent releases... but I haven't seen trusted reports return confirming that its all kosher now. I keep hearing "trust the masses" In most circumstances... that's foolish advice. I trust the experts instead.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] ajster1989:
Use Kingo, after it roots and goes to confirm root was successful, deny it access. Problem solved.

Sent from another Galaxy... Note 3
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] DrPhant0m:
It was (is?) Kingo that skims info during the root process, as I understand it. I'd imagine you have to allow some level of access to achieve root.

When verizon puts out a kitkat update... I'll consider using kingo if no other method presents itself. Until then... I'm fine where I am.

Hi. I have a few dumb questions but I guess you are the best guys to answer me.

I have bought my SM-N9005 out of my country. Here it means I don't have warranty.

So, the knox counter being 0x1 wouldn't be a big problem for me, right?

If I have the counter 0x1, will I be able to get the OTA updates normally?

I am interested on root only to avoid ads in some apps. I don't want to change everything in my device and I want to have the official updates.

You can't downgrade firmwares on this phone. (At least... not Verizon's, I know that) I understand it will fail. Also... it should be advised that applying an OTA from your carrier will almost certainly break root, and you may not be able to get it back, depending on the new version.

I'm on the original MI9 release, rooted with the original RDLV technique... and I froze the fw updates through titanium backup.

You can't flash backwards if you flash the official 4.4 update, but if you use a custom 4.4 kernal then your good. The official 4.4 kernal burns another e-fuse.

I'm still new at this, so please scold lightly.

I have a Note 3 on AT&T running 4.3 and don't want AT&T's KitKat crammed down my throat. Yesterday; I was informed by AT&T: "Too Bad!" Mine has the GPS issue and I want to get it fixed but not with their update. I have, and absolutely need Total Recall call recorder, by nature of my scope of work. It currently works in an un-rooted Note 3, but will not with the KitKat release.

Knowing that AT&T was going to unceremoniously update my phone; I panicked and rooted it with Kingo - which I'm now finding out, may not have been the best thing to do. I did that in hopes of being able to block the forced update.

Now; I've found this thread today. My current version is NB4. Am I SOL, or is there any way I can un-root - without the SIM - and re-root with this method?

This sounds like an awesome ROM. I'm just hoping that I'm not too late, or screwed the pooch by doing the Kingo root.

Hi mate,

If you wanna root your device, do it now while you are 4.3 and do what this tutorial RDLV says.

because if you update occasionally your device for kk fw, forget it for good.

There is a way to upgrade and keep root, from a rooted 4.3 note 3 you can flash 4.4 via mobile Odin. Have mobile Odin reboot you into download mode and flash the 4.3 bootloader right away.

This doesn't effect Knox and allows you to downgrade later to.

rooting note 3 from telcel

In the attached images, I share with you my phone data. I'm from México and my note 3 is a N900W8 model with stock firmware and bootloader. As stated in one of the images, my AP is N900W8UBUBMHG. The other image said that my compilation number is N900W8UBUBMJ4. In the first post it is said that "If you are running MJ4, MJ7, MK1, MK2 or higher you can still root, but you will trip KNOX!"

That confuses me a little... which one is the firmware? Also, the firmware I patched with URDLV has the following details (downloaded from sammobile):

PDA: N900W8UBUBMJ4

CSC: N900W8TCEBMJ3

MODEM: N900W8UBUBMJ3

So, my question is... can I flash my patched firmware to get root access without trigger knox? I hope you can help me, because here in Mexico, the note 3 has a price of $1,073 USD and the knox counter issue is a one-time shot. As you can see, Telcel really overprice the phones, and I don't wanna lose warranty, but I wanna delete all the useless bloatware from Telcel.
