Hi, a bit of a desperate situation here.

I have a phone that has e3 recovery, android in bootloop (with no adb) and absolutely NO software available on the Internet. Zero firmware.

So nothing is known, there is no stock firmware, no stock scatter.

I made a full ROM0 backup. How can I find the PMT?

I also tried to get the boot images but the unpack scripts don't work. Looks like kernel is compressed with XZ.

please can you upload your firmware files

Don't forget Best Buy. I didn't know that Walmart sold them.
[Google Chromecast] cmendonc2:
Oh thats what I meant originally ;)
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Yup... If you care about rooting now, time to check your local store for rootable stock before they get cleared out!
[Google Chromecast] zanzabar:
staples has them with the 20% off coupon right now. that makes is $28, and you can do it now.

you wont find a rootable since they got them this week though.
[Google Chromecast] jsdecker10:
(Voice of Lee Corso from ESPN): "Not so fast, my friend!!"

I don't know if that's necessarily true that they FOR SURE won't be rootable. I'm saying this because there are still people that are ordering units off of Amazon.com & picking up units at local Best Buy stores that have been able to achieve root. Maybe, just mayyybbbeee you're right..who knows? Maybe these newly purchased Chromecasts are being pulled off the shelf from the verryyy back of the allotment, maybe these Chromecasts aren't all being manufactured at the same facility(maybe there are multiple production locations & they're not all flashing identical firmware?)..who really knows?

Maybe I'm completely mistaken in thinking this, but I'm starting to think that we're not gonna be able to identify rootable Chromecasts by their serial number. In a couple of threads here on xda, we have been trying to come up with some kind of pattern that we can use to spot a rootable Chromecast, but it looks like there are some gaps in the pattern, thus not being able to properly spot an exploitable device. Maybe I'm wrong...this is just my opinion. =)
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
I'd say the Rootable serial numbers thread disagrees so far, save for the lone verified report that defies the rule.

Many folks make the mistake of setting up and using their Chromecast before trying to root them and they get auto-updated to a non-rootable firmware. So an exploitable/rootable Chromecast really equates to one that has never been connected to the Internet and has shipped from the factory with an exploitable firmware version (12072). Hmm... I should point that out in the thread. Thanks for making me think of this! :D
[Google Chromecast] wptski:
Just read an article that stated the Chromecast will be on sale today "only" for $29.98 at Walmart. Don't know if that's the truth or is that they are starting Black Friday sales today??
[Google Chromecast] aamir123:
walmart has them on sale check the website, however theres no mention of the $6 google play promotion, also for anyone worried about staples not being rootable, you can always price match at big stores like best buy or frys. I found a supposedly rootable one yesterday but don't have a usb otg so not sure what to do yet.
[Google Chromecast] wptski:
I see that now but not yesterday, it's "online", store pickup or delivered and today is Thanksgiving as the article stated. We'll see what it shows tomorrow.

It appears that the article was correct. Late yesterday, online was sold out at the lower price, today it's available online but for $35 again.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
If you want to root, it must

not

connect to the Internet, which pretty much means you can't use it until you get a USB OTG or another way to get power+MicroUSB male+USB A female, root with FlashCast and flash a rooted, non-updating firmware like PwnedCast.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] alikhan2004:
Sorry for this stupid question but I cant find how to root my note 3 with Sprint without tripping knox or voiding the warranty. I've done so much searching but I only found one root method which is the Kingo app but I heard its not approved by XDA mods because it steals personal information from the phone. Please help
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] oscarthegrouch:
I have never tried the chainfire method of rooting so far. I've only tried kingo. I cannot report on other methods. I cannot verify on the accusations of stealing information either. I can vouch that kingo does not trip the Knox counter. That is all I have to report. Sorry if that is no help.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] alikhan2004:
Thanks for your reply. Do you know if I install the custom recovery like twrp or clockwork does that trip the knox counter with the kingo root method?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toenail_flicker:
Custom recovery trips Knox. King usually doesn't but can.

What he said. Recovery is what sets off the Knox e-fuse.

They don't know what the info is used for. So its kinda like be safer then sorry. Me personally i use it and everything is just fine. 1000's of other have used it as well. In today's world everything is out there for thieves to use against you.

Yes you dont want to just give it to them but rest for sure if you bank with a major bank you have no worries. I bought a ps4 off amazon. The next day i had a charge from some other state at walmart for $42.00! Called Wellsfargo and they put the money back in my account.

Just keep up with your credit scores and financial transactions as all Americans should be doing anyways.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] alikhan2004:
Ok so let me get this straight if I root my device and install a custom recovery like TWRP or clockwork it will trip knox?

You sure? Because I want to flash a custom rom but dont want to trip knox.

Well said...I know I'm not the only person that used the software but at the same time I don't want to go through the whole hassle of disputing activities on my credit report or bank accounts. I will hold off a little longer for some other root method to come out. Do you know if the Root de la Vega is available for Sprints Note 3?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] oscarthegrouch:
Like we said, kango root won't trip Knox. Adding custom recovery will. If you are determined to run a custom ROM, then you will have to install a custom recovery to flash it and that recovery will trip Knox.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] snowride20:
I used the chain fire method on the MJ4 update and had no issues. Going to have to trip Knox though. But look around, no one is having problems with sprint with Knox tripped except for a few unlucky people and they go to a different store and problem is solved.

this is it.. got my note 3.. and i want to uninstall those unnecessary apps.. from what ive search.. i need to root the phone.. my plan is root the phone using kingo and then install titanium backup.. and uninstall those unnecessary apps.. i can install any apps just not custom roms right, so i will not trip the knox?? thanks in advance
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
Correct, but I would recommend that you deep-six the idea of uninstalling any system apps (honestly, it can cause some serious problems with your device). Best to freeze them using TiBu. Your phone has a ton of system space, and deleting apps can lead to undesired results, with no upside.

Any app that can be frozen from app manager should be done from there first (select disable). The rest, use the freeze option from TiBu (Sprint Zone, Connection Optimizer).

Do one or two at a time, then reboot. See if your phone locks up after some use. If no issues, freeze another clutch of apps. If you do run into trouble, thawing the app is your next move.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

I'm wondering if there is a way to get full root on 4.3 mk4 yet and if so would you mind posting instructions for it?

Thanks in advance
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cullenmq1:
If you dont mind voiding your warranty there is a method under the general tab how to root stupid knox or something.

If you are like me and you do not like the idea of possibly permanently voiding your warranty then you patiently wait for someone to crack the bootloader (like they did with the international version)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] npesa92:
So the sprint store would always be able to know I tampered with it, even if I was able to unroot?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cullenmq1:
Yeah if you have the knox bootloader and you root it, it trips the bootloader voided warranty sign. So yes if you unrooted it would still show warranty voided. Whether sprint will actually look for this/care is yet to be determined.
