Theoretically, since kingoapp leaves you its version of supersu you can install chain's version from the Play Store, give it root then uninstall kingo su. It's clearly easier to flash though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Az Biker:
Installing superSU overwrites kingo's superuser though, right?

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Mr. HQ:
Been using safe strap for 2+ years starting with Motorola.

A quirk I found in this version is when activating a room slot sometimes I need to Go back into boot options & ensure the slot is activated.

Functionality is great. No issues at all. I have all 4 rom slots filled. Just wanted to let Hash code know my experience.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Frank Westlake:
Your ROM room roams, right?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Hashcode:
Normally this bug only happens right after ROM slot creation. Not sure what's stopping the slot from auto activating occasionally.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] chefb:
Do you have any updates planed for safestrap?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] warriorpluto:
When I installed hyper drive in the stock slot my phone was stuck at the custom screen. Are we not able to do this? I wanted to use all the space on my phone instead of splitting it up
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
Yes, you can install whatever you want in the stock slot...I'm running clean rom in my stock slot currently with Beans 3 in slot 1.

You do need to do a full wipe before installing on the stock slot though, so go back to safestrap and do that before installing your desired rom.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] warriorpluto:
OK thanks ill try again later
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] dimitri407:
I am very familiar with safe strap from my RAZR Maxx but I have never restored a custom row on my stock slot. How safe is that? Would really like to be able to use the entire space on my phone and have a custom Rom.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
Essentially you can treat Safestrap like a typical recovery, it is TWRP based after all, so you can restore, backup, flash, etc. just like normal. The main difference is that with an unlocked bootloader (ours is locked) when you install TWRP or CWM recoveries it replaces the stock recovery completely - it's gone from the device. With Safestrap we're inserting another recovery in the boot order and leaving the stock recovery in place (since we don't have privileges to remove it). Since we have a locked bootloader you can't use safestrap to flash kernels or modems but you can otherwise treat it just like you would any other recovery, so to directly answer your question - yes you can restore a custom rom on your stock slot - it's equally risky as with a typical recovery. You can always Odin a tar if you get stuck in a boot loop or other problems arise.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] dimitri407:
So is anyone having issues wiping their stock Rom slot? I tried to wipe mine and it failed. Said something about couldn't find the media drive or something. I wanted to wipe my slot slot and then do a backup of it after the initial setup so I could move it to another slot.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] krishaun27:

Why is the Time not correct on mine? Im set to the correct Time Zone. v 3.65
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] dimitri407:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] krishaun27:
Thats the only wierd thing for me everything else is functioning beautifully.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] LillieBennett:
Phones don't have a hardware clock so when recovery is booted time is unknown.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] toyosup88:
I flashed the beans rom in slot 1 and now when I reboot the boot screen has a padlock and says "custom." is this normal?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Nightmare_24_7:
Yes that is normal. If you want to get rid of it you can use triangle away.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] AlpineMan:
Did you try Triangle Away yourself? My understanding is that you need to have an unlocked bootloader before using it. If you do it with a locked bootloader, you're going to have a soft brick.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Nightmare_24_7:
Yes I have. Works without any issues. I use it every time I try a new rom. I have the retail version with a locked bootloader.

My restore of my backup fails.. Here are my steps.

I have the stock ROM activated, and I do a backup to my SD card. This backup is around 6gigs. Is this the correct size?

I then go to boot options and activate ROM Slot 1.

I go to restore, it defaults to the backup I did earlier. I choose it, it seems as though it is running fine...then at the end it just says failed at the top, with no details?

If I then go back and factory reset Rom Slot 1 it reboots to stock, not my backup.

Am I don't something wrong?

Do you have to be on MJ9 for this? Because I took the update.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] XzxBATTxzX:
hell yeah!

Lets goooo!!!! installing this when i get home, hopefully some custom roms come out soon! thanks again!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jal3223:
What are the steps used to keep root if using the MJ7 odin file instead of taking the update? Do you just check survivor mode still? Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] toddnbrown:
so the mj7 file in the OP... those of us who never updated can just ODIN that, and we are done, as far as updating and keeping root? Does that one do a full wipe? And maybe this is a dumb question, but if it does wipe everything, what would happen if you update, install SS, and restore a nandroid from the previous MI9 firmware? thanks for the hard work Hashcode!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] boynamedstacy:
So I updated to the new safestrap and installed through the app like we did in the beta version. The state is "installed" but safe system is "not active". Also when I reboot I don't get the safestrap splash screen anymore... Ideas anyone?

When you go into the safe strap app is it suppose to say active? Mine says not active, but I still get splash but I cannot restore backup.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] tgamer:
you are THE MAN!! Thanks a ton!! Have been holding off on root until I could make a backup of my existing setup before I started messing around. You are a wizard. Guess no need to go for that dev version now!

O M G

I'm such an idiot lol. I have known this, read other people having this issue, yet I continued to have it plugged in and was confused... Thanks bro, it works now :)

I do have another question though. Should the safe system read "active" in the safestrap app?

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] jlear3:
I'm sorry but this doesn't make any sense. You said that you downloaded fine but when you go to download it says not active.

What are you trying to download or what are you trying to actually accomplish thats having errors?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
Schnieb - Do you mean when you boot up the phone it says not active on the Safestrap splash screen? This is normal if you are running the rom in the stock slot of safestrap. If you go into safestrap recovery and boot a rom in a one of the created slots then the next time you see the splash screen it will show a different image and say "active".

If not that, are you talking about the safestrap app itself? When you download the safestrap application and install it you need to open it and click install before you're able to use the recovery.

Safe Strap Will not install

Hi,

I have the DE note 3 and noticed in a twrp backup (not ss) there are now 3 efs(1-3) partitions when before SS there was only one. It suspects ss since I had 3 slots (stock+2). However, when I carefully deleted the slots and uninstalled ss (looks like it is spotless clean) a new Nandroid still has 3 efs partitions. Is this SS related or from the normal use of the phone?

Deleting slot - can I rename?

I'm new but enjoying the Safestrap process. Thanks to the developer.

I loaded up all slots when I first got my note and realize now that was a mistake. Now I want to clean things out and just keep JB and Hyperdrive. (Eventually I will pick just one and use that in the stock slot.)

So I deleted one of the extra rom slots -- question is that it is still carrying the nickname that I had given it, even though the slot itself is now empty. Is there anyway I can re-name an empty slot so I know it is "out of use." Even better, is there a way to completely delete an empty slot -- remove it totally so that the space it takes is freed up?

May have another question later......... any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Barbara
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
Yes there is. In safestrap tap boot options, then tap the slot you want deleted. There should be a button to delete the slot completely.

Tibu question:

I flashed beans 4 to slot 1, beans 3 on stock with Tibu backups... When I went to restore game data via Tibu on slot 1, no backup found...

I thought Tibu backups to it's own folder on sdcard, which shouldn't be affected by whichever slot a rom is in, right?

If that's not true then every rom flashed in a new slot, Tibu has an empty backup folder?

That seems wrong, but I can't wrap my head around it at the moment.

Would changing Tibu destination folder to ext scard resolve this?

The in advance!

Either that or you need one external SD-card slot for each ROM slot.

Lost personalization on "restore"

Question, please, about restoring a nandroid backup. I just tried restoring my current Hyperdrive rom to a new slot. The rom restored great, except that all of my personalizations are missing -- none of my downloaded apps, no e-mail messages.... I always thought when I restored a nandroid that it was a mirror of what the rom was like when backed up. But what I got was exactly what I would have gotten had I re-flashed the rom zip file.

Obiously I am doing something wrong, and in the future I would like nandroid backups to be correct.

Any idea what I did wrong? Any tips?

Thanks,

Barbara
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Grompy:
When you backed up the rom slot you must have unchecked the data partition. Make sure data and system are checked when backing up and you should be good to go. It could have also been the cache partition. I believe emails and such reside in cache and user apps/ app updates you've installed from the play store reside in the data partition and of course system partition contains everything you'd get from the rom install zip.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] psychologyok:
I must be missing the how-to somewhere, but how do I remove safestrap and return to stock?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] inkdaddy66:
I would say download the stock tar file and flash it via Odin.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] psychologyok:
Okay, thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] LillieBennett:
If you have a Nandroid of the stock ROM you can restore it to the stock slot then delete all of the slots 1-4 boot to stock and uninstall ss. Harder but you keep your setup but if you're going to return the device then use the Odin method.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] psychologyok:
Okay, this is weird. I used Odin to flash back to stock and updated to the latest firmware, but it looks like it kept the dark themed samsung keyboard from the Jellybeans Rom I had loaded with safestrap. What is going on?

Also, some of the bloatware that what supposed to be a part of the update (like VMWare) appears to be missing
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
I had this same thing happen when I followed DroidStyle's guide to returning to stock (in general forum). All that happened was I was unrooted and my xposed (and any other root-dependent) mods were removed. Really odd...

I did get back to a completely fresh stock experience by using Kies, which is a Samsung provided tool that is intended to provide updates to users. You can use it to go back to stock though as well. Here's where to get it: http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] psychologyok:
What options did you use to do that? It's telling me my current firmware is not supported to update software via kies.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] DutchDogg54:
Once Kies is open and the device is connected click on "Tools" > "Firmware upgrade and initialization" > "OK" and it will return you to stock

Thanks. Actually I am on the mj7 now with hyper drive 4. My wifi and everything is working properly, but I have seen about a 12 people have this issue so I wanted to check with Hashcode to see if this could be because of SS.

Coming from the S4 you had to flash modules to keep your wifi from breaking.

So I could probably flash beans and get the new baseband (you mean radio right?) and then back to hyperdrive. Baseband should remain intact right?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] njfoses:
Once you take the ota i believe you must stay on an mje rom or wifi will not work. If you want to run an mje custom rom such as clean rom you have to take the ota as well or wifi will not work.
