MJE I believe was the default for the note 3 when it was shipped. If you go to settings and about phone and look at build version. If it says MJE then cool if nc2 even better. If nc4 you're out of luck.

You can odin MJE tar on any retail vzw note 3. Then you follow the links in my sig to get 4.3 root, then upgrade to 4.4 KK.

Follow the links included in each thread, no worries.

All req firmware, modem, etc included in mje tar, and nc2 leaked 4.4.2.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Azeem00:
I read your detail instructions for how to install files using ODIN. Do you have to perform a factory reset wiping entire phone or is that optional? I don't want to wipe entire phone after installing MJE unless I have to. Please let me know.

One more thing. What's the advantage of flashing ROMS? And after reading the forum it sounds like Safestrap helps you install ROMS?

It sounds like after rooting you're suppose to install the leaked version of 4.4.2 which is already rooted right? I'm assuming NC2 is built into the leaked 4.4.2.

Thanks for your help!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] thepolishguy:
Whoa whoa whoa... Hold up... I am not sure if I am misunderstanding you... I can Odin to MJE from NC4? Or am I misunderstanding what you said?

Thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Az Biker:
No. In order to get on the leaked NC2 (which is nearly same as NC4), your device must first be running MJE. Once on Mje, then you can update to leaked NC2. Do not take Vzw Ota.

Notorious 3
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Az Biker:
Factory reset is optional. When flashing MJE in odin your int sd card is wiped.

Flashing a cust rom gives you more customization options vs stock. You get the benefit of debloating, a finely tuned rom.

The leaked NC2 is nearly the same as NC4 4.4.2. NC2 leaked allows you to revert/downgrade. NC4 does not.

Root please!

I'm really hoping that someone roots the 4.4.2 OTA version and unlocks this thing ASAP. I accidentally took the update and I can't seem to undo it. Is there any chance of this happening soon?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] donc113:
The longer it goes without being rooted, the better the chances it can't be rooted.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Az Biker:
Some users who took the 4.4.2 ota or got a device with 4.4.2 KK have called vzw and complained about poor signal, poor batt life, poor 4G service, etc. They were given a MJE device in exchange for their KK NC4 device.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] donc113:
You all should understand though, that at some point, probably in the near future, Verizon recertified devices will have NC4 on them. For example, the phone you send them now will be "repaired" and the latest OS will be installed and the phone will become the phone sent to some future person to replace their phone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] killajerv129:
Quick question was gonna flash my note 3 again to NC4 4.4.2 KK But are there any rooms available besides the stock version can I use Hyperdrive 4.4 room and flash it where I'm suppose to flash the stock room in safestrap or do I flash the stock then go back to safestrap make room slot and go that route to run his ROM and Bajas
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] puchodog1977:
i believe this doesnt mention the android version.

will this root 4.4.2? i couldnt see it written anywhere?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] skarrde:
You can root 4.4.2 nc2 but not nc4.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] puchodog1977:
ya i havent rooted in a while

these new terms you kids are throwing out there. nc2 or 4. i took that crap ota update.

does that mean i have to wait for a root for my note 3 on kk 4.2.2?

If you took the official vzw ota, you're stuck on kk 4.4.2 until someone figures out a work around.

I used kingo root one click it worked well for me but had to enable usb debugging mode so that the phone is recognized by kingo root app from pc. Yes it didn't mess my Knox security either. I booted my phone in Odin mode and verified it was 0x0 not 0x1. Also, yes when you use super user app it asks you if you want to disable Knox security and I always say yes. I can't stand unrooted phones:). First thing I do when I buy new phones I come home and root that sucker to get me eternal satisfaction and freedom:). I'm on mj7 and had note 3 for 18 hours now:)

Rooting N9002 possible??

I am new here. I bought N9002 two weeks ago in China and unfortunately let the OTA to upgrade to MJ6.

Have anybody tried to root N9002 (Chinese Dualsim) with MJ6 firmware? I have understand, that it was possible on Verizon MJ7 which is also newer FW.

I keep getting message that it was not possible to root using standard exploits (or something like that) and I get the option to use other method (flash CWM,...). But I dont want to trip knox right now.

Thx in advance

Kingo says it can root any phone... I'd give it try, it took me 3 attempts and all is well. Visit their site. Can't post link as XDA doesn't allow it yet. Easy Google search... Best of luck, report back with your results...

mea culpa - i haven't written it properly, so this time better:

I have already tried to use kingo about 5 times. It tries to root about 5 minutes and than i get a message:

"It is impossible to root your device by employing exploits. Next, we will try to root it by flashing custom recovery trough odin mode, which will void your waranty claim. Are you sure you want to continue?"

But I don't want to trip knox of course (i have made type error in first post - already corrected)

I have noticed one thing. As i click on root, i get security infomation (with shield like icon) on my phone - "an application attempted to acces system on your device without authorization. This attempt has been blocked. Updating your security policy may solve this problem. Deleting applications obtained from unauthorized sources may improve security"

If I click on update, i get an error that there is no network connection.

Did I miss something?

//edit:

the security message is caused from "Knox Notification Manager", I have tried to force close and clear cache and data. I will see if it helps.

First off thanks to the OP for this thread. Very detailed and informative.

I'm getting my note 3 Friday and finally retiring my note 2 on beans 22.

Lots to learn here as far as safestrap, root, etc..

Hope as I learn I could help out some newbies as well. :thumbup:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Az Biker:
SafeStrap sounds kind of difficult if you've never used it. Once you get in there it's easy and well made. Creating, activating, increasing data partitions, etc all sounded daunting at first, until I actually USED SafeStrap once. Hashcode did an excellent job with how user friendly SS is.

Enjoy the assortment of 4.3 roms OR follow the other link in my sig to update from 4.3 to NC2 4.4.2 (leak).

I prefer BajaROM. But Beans 6 (4.3) or Beans deodexed NC2 are good options.

Make sure you flash a 4.3 rom on MJE or a 4.4.2 on NC2 leak.

And don't take the Official VZW OTA

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mattchenzo:
Install the KitKat safestrap, open the app, click "install", then reboot. When the weird splash screen with the red robot thing on it pops up, you tap either recovery, or normal boot... OK don't remember the text of the button on the right but the left one is recovery, the right one is boot normally. Once in recovery, tap " backup" and rename it if you want, or just swipe the button to start backup, and take a 5 minute nap while your phone makes you an insurance policy. Then if you ever screw something up, you can get right back to this point by tapping "restore" from recovery, and selecting the file you made.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] donelam304:
Any preference on which safestrap.

3.72 or 3.65

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Az Biker:
Using Safestrap on the N3 makes flashing custom rom considerably different than say, the totally unlocked boot loader devices of the past.

I had to learn new terminology (rom slots, data partitions, etc) and a new flashing process that didn't allow cust kernels.

Luckily, in addition to each other, we have GOOGLE! :D

So you're running MJE. If you are wanting to get on the NC2 leak, just follow that link in my sig "update from 4.3 to 4.4" and you'll be right as rain. All links and files needed are there.

Should take less than 30 minutes once all files are downloaded... Read the steps first, make sure you understand them, then do it. If you need anything or aren't sure about any step, just ask!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] donelam304:
OK. Thanks. Once I go to NC2, do I go to NC4 next to have 4.4
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Az Biker:
NC2 leak is actually better than NC4. Beans recommended sticking with NC2 as some exploits included in NC2 leak are not included in NC4, and won't likely be released in the future.

There is NC4 modem/boot loop fix that is flashed in Odin after updating to NC2 leak (it's not the full NC4 firmware) . Many are seeing better reception /signal. Some report no difference.

KitKat has been a joke on my Note 3, almost to the point that I would like to see if VZ will replace it with a JB Note 3.

I got this phone as a replacement for a defective unit (charge port failure) and as soon as I unboxed it, it downloaded the dreaded update, and naturally curious, I installed it.

Ever since i've experienced:

Wifi connection issues (I believe this may be related to the NC4 radio firmware?)

Major lag

Delay turning screen on

Lockups that cause me to have to pull the battery

Starting to get a little frustrating. I miss JellyBeans ROM :/

Hey guys I followed the procedure for the nc4 root and after I installed baja15 and rebooted into download mode from safestrap i got a message saying "do not power off downloading in progress" or something similar to that (i'm not on that screen right now). Can anyone please help me move forward from this point?
