Thanks, so I guess either A) I play around with my new Note 3 for a few days to make sure there aren't any obvious defects and then root it, OR B) I root immediately and gamble that there isn't anything wrong with the phone.

---------- Post added at 06:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:21 AM ----------

Since preserving Knox 0x0 after rooting with the newer bootloaders is immaterial at this point, what's the better way to root - URDLV or CF? Any advantages/disadvantages with either method? Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] and2:
just use CF-Root, it is more easy. And do the multitouch test before.

There is a new Singapore firmware available for Note 3. N9005XXUDML2

I am on MJ7 with the original bootloader (MJ1) and so far after rooting, my knox remains at 0 x 0.

If I were to use RDLV on the most recent firmware, N9005XXUDML2, would it trigger the knox counter for me?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] antt00:
No it wont trigger knox as you are still on the old bootloader.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] maetsuenxda:
A quick question, first did you do root on your Note 3 for the first time while its still has the MJ1 firmware?

Lastly, how did you do it that although your now with the MJ7 firmware but still have the original bootloader from MJ1?

I hope someone could answer my question, it will help me a lot in understanding things.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] herczyn:
no, but it's much easier to use mobile odin pro. no firmware editing whatsoever, just flash it with mobile odin pro with everroot and you're done.

if you don't know how, there are instructions available.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] s2kdriver80:
Thanks - you mean like pinch zoom and similar functions?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] and2:
some Note 3 have problems with 3 fingers. So try one of the first apps if all is fine then you can root. This is what Chainfire wrote
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] nehm:
Sorry for question, but I'm not sure.

My Note 3 is:

AP: N9005XXUDMJ7

CP: N9005XXUDMJ7

CSC: N9005OXXDMJ4

I guess that AP/CP is the bootloader. So if I use this, my knox counter will be tripped, right?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] and2:
sorry, yes.

Ubuntu Linux Support

Sorry if I'm being a bit thick - is there any way to root the firmware using Linux? I assume I can't just run the .bat file?

If not, I don't care about my warranty - is there another root method which will work in Ubuntu?

Currently downloading the firmware from Sam - which will take all night :)

Thanks all.

I'm gonna try rooting my Note 3 tonight. Just to confirm, I'm running AP/CP: N900W8VLUBMI5 (CSC: N900W8OYABMI5). I can root this with URDLV and keep KNOX 0x0? I can wait on custom roms until someone figures out how to get around KNOX, but root for Titanium/removing bloat/AdAway would be great. I think it's safe, just looking for confirmation.

[MENTION=2348906]designgears[/MENTION]

Could you please add to original post firmware versions that URDLV will work with without tripping knox.

Most of this topic posts are questions like "I got MJ7, so I can root knox 0x0" and the same answer as last time "NO"

It would be most simple and easy to all + topic would be more cleaner if it's mentioned at URDLV instructions on first page, from what version upwards knox will be tripped.

Thanks :)

Can't use this method after MJ3 without tripping knox as Samsung patched the bootloader. You can take a look at Kingo but some don't trust them.

Nothing has changed, the method is the same, I just rebuilt the script to work on windows and linux, should be a more stable, better error output...

This isn't a general support thread, you should go ask in the appropriate device forum.

[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] designgears:
Please read the OP, warnings about MJ7 have been added.

URDLV will still root your device, but you will trip KNOX.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] wolf5:
Yup. I understood that. Tripping is not really a big deal for me regarding the warrant, but the possible ramifications of its effect on one piece of software is:

DME (for my work emails).

If DME (if not already) finds a way to check the KNOX value, they might decide the device is not safe and not allow me to use it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] designgears:
If you trip KNOX and your work is using the integrated mdm to enforce rules, you will be detected.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] exFugitive:
designgears, I have flash the VEGA ROM, now my SYSTEM STATUS show "Custom" :confused: but "Knox 0x0" :good:.

Is this normal? Does my warranty void already? :crying:
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] orly_mihai:
It's not a problem.When you will flash back official firmware the status will be official.What version of firmware do you have now?MK2?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] designgears:
Check out the QA section, your answer is contained within!

Lol, you just need to install wanam and enable the fake system status feature.
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] exFugitive:
I see, another thanks from me for quick reply :good:, I don't really understand Wanam thing (read the thread already) but I will install it later. :D

But if Knox 0x0, I think using Odin flashing back genuine firmware will get back Official status right?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] designgears:
Yes, and it will take a few boots for it to clear out as well.

Wanam is a module for Xposed Framework that has a ton a features that apply to Touchwiz based roms. It is like having an app that does all features instead of hacking them into the rom directly.

Good work DG :) Is there any mileage in this SafeStrap stuff over on the rootzwiki web site?

So flashing older stock roms with Odin doesn't downgrade the bootloader?

First off is Knox tripped? If not is having a warranty important to you? And lastly, what is it you want to update?
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] mrscaligirl:
No Knox isn't tripped, warranty not important either. Well I didn't take any of the ota, was gonna update to MJ5 but if I don't need to I'll just stay where I am and as long as I can use safe strap on MI9. Its just been a little confusing with Knox and all..damn at&t..
[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] Muffycheeks:
Well my take would be this.....knowing Samsung is always patching "holes" in their firmware. I would wait on a dev to release a rooted version.

You may lose more than gain with update.

I think you root MJ5 with kingo root. Or you can downgrade to MI9, root, update, and put the rooting files back on the sdcard and reboot a couple times.

I didn't ask for my self. You have instructions for Odin, and that's not your program definitely. I asked because of others, and sake of completeness, because like this, your instructions look messy to me. If you think they are fine, just enjoy your time.

I ran it on Cygwin, Windows 7. Place your scripts and folders in the cygwin home folder. Called your script, drag in the original rom files to get the correct location.

[Galaxy Note 3 Original Android Development] !crazy:
In prerequisites, and 'Can I do this with Linux' you mention Linux as a supported OS. But I see only instructions for rooting with Odin? AFAIK Odin doesn't work with Linux (One can use Mobile, but for that one needs root already.).

So my suggestion was to add instructions for flashing with Heimdall, which works with linux. Or at least to mention that Linux is still not fully supported, b/c one needs Odin. Alternatively, you could also mention only Windows as supported OS.

If you don't mind here is a link with Heimdall how to (It is for Mac, but it works same with Linux. Ubuntu packages are heimdall-flash, and heimdall-flash-frontend): Flashing with Heimdall

I am not entirely sure what you are asking. HOWEVER, I will take a stab at it. Assuming you are asking if you can mod the firmware and update with that, you should be able to, it will contain the new CSC and AP and no bootloaders or modems or anything. I have no idea if ML2 has updated bootloaders, not sure what region you are in. Some more info would be helpful.

It looks nicer to me like this. It wouldn't be nice if you had removed all references to flashing tools. Like this IMO basic rooting instructions look better. Everyone knows where to look for how tos (Google Odin, Heimdall : )).
