I confirm this root method worked on mySGH-I337, AT&T using a Mac and running the install.sh. I did get the "device not found" errors during the busybox install phase. When updating SuperSU I went ahead and disabled KNOX. Tried again but still got the "device not found" errors, so I installed busybox from the Play Store as suggested by k1mu and everything is working fine. Nice work! :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] :
Does anyone know why I get an error that says

"files' is not recognized as an internal or external command

and CMD closes right away?

I have kiles installed. It seems i cant get the program to run once I hit install.batch or w.e

windows 8 btw
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sahively:
Any thoughts on whether this method of rooting provides something that vroot and Kingo don't? For those that rooted the sketchy ways, should they unroot and reroot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] DeadlySin9:
It provides safety in knowing none of your information is sent to a private server, no binaries are messed with on your computer and phone, and in knowing exactly what it runs and how. I don't think it's necessary to unroot and reroot, but for those who need root in the first place it's better to be entirely safe than to take even a slight risk.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sahively:
Agree on all points about the other methods. Thanks for the help.

Can't figure it out

AT&T Galaxy S4 running MK2 here, I've been trying all night to get this thing rooted with this method. Started from a factory reset phone. After running install.bat, running SuperSU keeps asking me if it can try and disable Knox, and then reports that if failed to do so. How do I disable Knox? Meanwhile after rebooting the phone, fails to install busybox. Output attached. I can't be the only one this is happening to, but so far I haven't seen anyone reporting a similar problem. Can anyone help?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] RuggedHunter:
Hash wrote this to a user in the Saferoot main thread yesterday. I haven't seen anyone else mention this yet and didn't want to clog up his dev thread with a noob question.

Edit: Quote was from k1mu, not Hashcode, sorry!

Is there a thread someone can point me to learn about the new ota which patches this new root method and how to block it if it's not too late?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thajacka:
same problem for me, havent seen anyone with a solution do you also get the security info message application attempted to access system and it was blocked?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] c-dude:
I rooted earlier this week with this method. It went like a breeze. Samsung Kies drivers didn't work, so I downloaded the other ones mentioned in the OP. I had to click back back back to get to the screen where the install would let SU install over Knox. I made sure Knox was disabled after root using Root Uninstaller. Finally, busybox didn't install in my original root, so I just downloaded it from the Play Store. I also used the OEM cable to connect the phone to the PC.

I think I got the OTA patch today from ATT/Samsung: it updated 44 apps. I kept root, and everything is working like a breeze! Just keep trying to root it b4 u get the OTA update!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jeboo:
I don't think that's an OTA update, just a mass app update..Check settings/about.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] c-dude:
called lgLeig

IDK, but am hoping with Knox disabled and SU in survival mode that it won't affect the root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] RuggedHunter:
When I first rooted, SuperSU did not give me the message to disable Knox, like it apparently did for most. I immediately went to the phone settings and unchecked the auto updates for security updates, then in TiBu Pro, I froze anything Knox that I could find, plus the ATT bloat and software updater, and checked Survival Mode in preferences. I'm hoping that'll keep me safe.

After installing SS and wiping, to create room for a Rom Slot, I maintained root but had to reinstall su...When I opened it after the reinstallation, I did get the popup to disable Knox, which worked successfully.

I still haven't heard too much about the ota patches being pushed from Samsung to close this exploit, but I think that Note3 might've been where the issues were confirmed, IDK for sure...

still no possible recovery in mf3 or mk2? safestrap still only option? will this ever change?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] :
Nothing has changed. and I doubt it will, with the S5 being a couple months being away, I wouldnt do if all efforts for the s4 get abandoned in a couple months and all of them shift towards the s5
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint branded S5s will be more locked down than the S4s could ever be. More than likely, any Samsung development will be with the International, Developer's, or GE edition S5s. Anyone that buys any branded phone in the US (with exception to T-Mobile) should stop expecting Development beyond what something like SafeStrap or X-posed can offer. And they do offer some customization, but will never rival full custom recoveries and abilities to flash.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] xBeerdroiDx:
agreed.

we will soon see who really wants full control of their phones as those that are dedicated shift to unbranded/unlocked and nexus devices. f*ck the carrier's control.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] norbarb:
I got Samsung custom logo on start after I root with this method. Any help please
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] DeadlySin9:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] norbarb:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] RuggedHunter:
Make sure both are active... Double check it. Then reboot at least twice. It never works for me on first reboot.

Does everyone else have an issue with TiBu batch operation for moving apps to SD? That batch process isn't available in the list of batch operations for me. However, I can still create a batch operation to move user apps to SD in the scheduler...but it doesn't actually work.

It's one of the most useful parts of TiBu Pro....

Even with root, I can still only move SOME apps to extSD manually in Application Manager.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] kwelch08:
not working for me either. never ask for superuser permission, and while running the install it says superuser install failed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Amelia2006:
It worked, got my MK2 S4 roooted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] thepktrckt:
I'm in the camp of a few others; I can't get past the disable Knox screen it keeps failing.

I'm already on MK2 and Knox is warning me that it found a file and stopped it from running.

Followed the steps one by one and am now stuck, can't remove the apk and can't get it to install.

Anyone get past this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] anomailin:
Worked for me too. Removed all bloatware now :laugh:. While starting it shows Samsung custom logo.

I am interested in this http://www.parrot.biz/united_kingdom/products/index.php?id=ck3300 Does anybody have any experience using this device, how well does it work etc. ?

I plan on using it with O2 Mini S and possibly Tom Tom software what do you guys think?
[General Accessories] Gusty:
I have a CK3300 and the similar CK3100 (no GPS) in my wife's car.

They work superbly with Sony Ericsson phones, less well with Motorolas and Nokias but a bit of a disaster with the XDA Mini-S. Doesn't auto connect, doesn't synch contacts properly, overwrites voice tags. There's a bunch of posts on the subject in the Parrot forum on their website. Rumours that there will be a software upgrade shortly which will address some issues.

I haven't got around to trying the GPS with TomTom on the XDA (as I can't get it to install!) but it worked fine with my previous PPC (an iPaq RX3715)

[General Accessories] pjcltd:
I have a CK3300 not had to meany problems on the GPS side but my xda 2s and my axd mini would not work with the handsfree bit.

My xda exec works fine on GPs and handsfree.

Very good bit of kit overall
[General Accessories] Dralex:
Beside experience, I have a question to post here.

I have Parrot СК3300 for 2 years. As handsfree kit, it works perfectly with Sonyericsson K750i, 700i, Z800, P900. With Sonyericsson P900, it works perfectly as hands free kit and GPS module simultaneously.

However, after connecting my QTEK2020i (1.11.00 WWE, Radio 1.02.00, ExtROM 1.11.113 WWE dd 27of Jan 2005) I can use Parrot as GPS module only. Any attempts to use Parrot as kar kit leads only to loud clicks from speakers. So just for now, I use Parrot as hands-free for Sonyericsson K700i and as GPS module with QTEK simultaneously.

No way to fix it. I delete all Bluetooth devices, soft reset, ad only Parrot as hands-free, soft reset. No result.

Can you suggest me how to fix it.

Thanks in advance!
[General Accessories] datas_brother:
Hi,

I have a CK 3000 intsalled with Tom Tom and a third party BT GPS mouse. The Parrot works very well but it has to be paired as a Hands-free set and not as a headset. One small bug, though: I have to start TT first for the GPS to connect when getting back into the vehicle. After that I start the engine, which connects the CK3000 to my MDA II. If the CK is connected first, TT can't find the mouse.

I've been looking for a way to get the audio to be put through the the CK. I once found a piece of software that could do that on this site but inspite of hours of searching, I haven't been able to find it again. - HELP!

parrot car kit

I have a parrot CK3500 GPS car kit and it works well with TomTom Mobile 5 on my SPV E200 ,C500, C550 and has worked with TomTom Navigator 5 my M2000 as well. This is for Voice AND GPS simultaneously.

with earlier versions of TOMTOM i needed to rename the bluetooth connection from Parrot to TomTom Wireless GPS.

I have an XDA Mini S too which is on a data only tariff (so havent tried handsfree) but TomTom 5 works with it for GPS. They seem a little fiddly to set up, but once set up they are great.

I found i needed to use "AnyGPS Tweak" on all the smartphones to get it to connect initially

I had a CK3300 in another car and that worked exactly the same.

The only criticism is that the GPS voice instructions dont go through the speakers. However sometimes they do, and it seems to be if you start TomTom before you switch on the car ignition, the car kit thinks a call is in progress and relays the GPS through the speakers. It doesnt always work, but sometimes its a bit of a shock to get Jane bellowing through the speaker!!

The downside is that if you take a voice call over the car kit, it seems to re-set and the GPS voice then reverts back to the phone speaker.

I have emailed Parrot about this and have not had a reply as yet.
[General Accessories] Dralex:
Re: parrot car kit

Thanks for your reply.

As far as I understand, I can't solve problem with incoming - outcoming telephone calls by some "secret' QTEK settings.

Therefore, I'll try to find "Any Bluetooth Tweak" program to fix it.

Can you suggest any "Tweak" software?

Hello experts

While I research just thought I would post my issue.

I have rooted and installed CyanogenMod 10.1 dated 11-14-13 and was quite happy with it. Thought I would update to more recent stable version and downloaded cm-10.2.0-jfltetmo.zip and copied it to sdcard root.

Before doing anything wanted to test my nandroid backup set and tried to restore it to a 12-03 backup but it failed with a Boot restore error.

It appears that i lost the bootloder. It goes to Download mode when powered up. (this make me think that I have not Bricked it)

Can someone help me please?

I used Nandroid backup tool to backup. I think but not positive that I saw the Boot option checked. There was one the was unchecked by default something starting with Yf... or something .. do not remember the term.
