[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] changt34x:
A retail with Knox tripped means the owner either did some unsupported mod or used an old root method and the warranty is now void. It does not mean the bootloader is unlocked.

A Dev Note 3 has Knox tripped but can be bootloader unlocked.

Don't get a Knox tripped retail.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidstyle:
Not exactly but close...the Dev Note 3 does not have knox tripped out of the box. Once you flash anything custom in odin, then knox is tripped. However that is all irrelevant because there is no warranty anyway aside from a 1 yr on mechanical defects.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Imarik81:
Well I tripped my Knox. It's not the end of the world. It does stink though. I'm running Eclipse right now but I'd love to check out Cm11. Is that possible?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
[MENTION=5485743]lmarik81[/MENTION] - I think the pointed question you need to ask is:

"Suppose I want to intentionally blow my Knox warranty flag on my retail device - will the retail device become equivalent to a dev device at that time?"

I *think* the answer is "NO - you will still not be able to boot unsigned kernels."

But it would be better if someone with a blown Knox retail device can validate the above with a "yeah, I tried that on my (blown Knox) retail device and it didn't work" ... either that or refute that assertion from contrary experience.

Direct first-person experience is very desirable here.

[Edit] [MENTION=5485743]lmarik81[/MENTION] - mind saying how you blew yours? Flashing the recovery partition, or something else?

Is it possible to hard brick my device by doing this? I'm tempted to try if I can just restore back with worst case 0x2.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Imarik81:
I had the case off the back of my phone and some how the battery came out as I was flashing either a rom or recovery and when I turned the phone back on I went into recovery and it tripped.

Yes, because it was pulled from my repo. I did do most of the work, but there were a couple things I missed, which was added before the final push. Just because one persons name is on a tag doesn't mean there wasn't anybody involved.

Someone take care of this kid before you loose me again... Ink doesn't want to go thru the begging pleading and eventually conning me into coming back all over again..

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexbenh:
Ok, Ive unlocked my bootloader, installed CWM, rooted my device and checked that it worked, and when I go to the boot loader and select recovery it takes me to CWM. Ive made backups from it and and they restore fine. I even installed a custom kernel and it worked because noFrills let me OC/choose a different governor. Yet from the three ROMs Ive tried so far, they install fine, no errors from CWM, but when I boot up it just gets stuck booting forever. Ive tried wiping everything, Ive tried wiping some things, heck I even tried wiping nothing but I still get the same issue. Id really like to try a new ROM now that I went through the trouble of voiding my warranty, so please try to help me. Thanks in advance, alexbenh

If you're flashing a kitkat ROM, make sure you're already running KitKat. If you're still on 4.3, then fastboot flash the stock 4.4.2 image first, then try custom roms
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexbenh:
WOOOHOOO, I reinstalled the stock 4.4 firmware and everything, I couldnt root it with superboot so I just skipped the rooting step. Then I flashed CWM through the bootloader although I decided to take a risk and instead of "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img", I did "mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img" just to see if it would change anything. Not sure if thats why it works for me now, but its worth a try. Good luck to the rest of you who have this problem.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexbenh:
Yes, I was already running the stock 4.4 ROM the only differences was that I had a custom kernel which could possibly be an issue, but I wouldnt think so

huh, I had not tried using TWRP, but I thought CWM had a fix permissions command as well.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grahamgo:
My experience. I tried CWM then loaded a Rom, the first one I tried being CM11 = Bootloop, Then I tried several other Rom's and always the same result, spinning on Bootloop

I then put the phone back to stock firmware 4.4.2 and tried TWRP version TWRP2630, no joy even the bootloader wouldn't work right.

Finally put the phone back to stock AGAIN (now getting frustrated!) and tried installing TWRP2631 using fastboot. That did the trick, now all ROM's load and run fine. This version of TWRP appears to be working well. Backup/restore works, and no problems at all.

Other's report CWM works well, but not for me unfortunately.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] wghummel:
I searched and searched and couldn't find anything to help me.

I followed one of the threads to root my S4 on 4.3 MK2. I was in such a rush and tried to install TWRP.... and then I saw the bottom of the post saying you can ONLY use Safestrap.

Long story short, I butchered my recovery and sent it into the ethos. Upon booting into recovery I see the Android robot with a red caution symbol and "no command," and it throws me into android system recovery.

I tried installing SafeStrap and it claims that it can install successfully, but when I reboot it's not there.

So apparently I need to reflash my phone with a clean install of 4.3.

I cannot find a 4.3 ROM for MK2 anywhere. SAMmobile, StockROMs.net, Google searches, I can find 4.2.2 roms, but apparently once you're on 4.3 you can't go back to 4.2.2.

How can I fix this? Or do I need to visit one of the guys at the Samsung Experience Shop in my local Best Buy...?

[Moto X Q&A] byrdmang2:
Okay all... I had 4.2.2 rooted, write protection off. I tried rooting up to 4.4, didn't go well so I flashed fresh 4.2.2, no root.

Well, I lost root and I'm not sure how to get it back. I've searched the forums for about 3 hours to no avail....

Any help or pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!
[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
Start Rant

There is no way you searched the forums for 3 hours the 5th Thread in the Original Android Development is RockMyMoto which is the root for 4.2.2. Also a quick Google Search of Moto X 4.2.2 Root would of given you many guides..

End Rant

Here is the link hope it helps.

[Moto X Q&A] byrdmang2:
That's the thing though... I already HAD 4.2.2 root. I just wanted to root 4.4. I tried the OTA to it, then RSD'd to 4.2.2. But by that point, my write protection was gone, and trying slapmymoto wasn't working either... I'm sorry for being a nuisance and newb, I just want to figure it out and be done!
[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
You should still have write protect off even if you flash the stock firmware

run this command and let me know what you get

adb shell getprop ro.boot.write_protect

If you see "0", that pesky write protection is gone

then we will go from there

but if you have tried rooting you need to give us the error's you got trying to do the 4.4 root so we can see what the issues is and help you find a fix.
[Moto X Q&A] byrdmang2:
Well I have 0.. I've checked that every time I've given this a go. I'm assuming since I've rooted 4.2.2 before AND ran (successfully) motowpnomo, I jump to slapmymoto right?

Well when I do that and run the dalvikvm -cp ... command line, it gives me the line that the system is not write protected (duh), proceed to step 3 attempt the 4.4 ota.. But it doesn't auto reboot like I've read it should. So I've manually done adb reboot, figuring no difference right?

After I'm on 4.4 I try adb reboot bootloader to flash the 4.2.2 recovery.. Does it's business, fastboot reboot.

It's now gotten to the LAST command line with the "echo" command where I get permission denied.. How does that work?
[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
idk what guide your following but i think it is old.

1. download the correct 4.2.2 CU firmware for your Carrier

2. open the .zip files and extract the files into your folder with ADB and MFastBoot.

3. Boot your phone into the bootloader

4. Run the below commands one by one

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot reboot

i recommend wiping your device also but that is up to you

fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache

Step1)

Unzip SlapMyMoto-1,0.zip and push the jar file to your internal storage

adb push SlapMyMoto.jar /sdcard/SlapMyMoto.jar

Step2)

Use http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/ to open up a telnet session as system user on port 2222. We covered how to use Impactor and telnet in the RockMyMoto root, I won't be covering it again since this post is going to be long enough already, see here -> http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2509590 or http://rootzwiki.com/topic/107098-ro...the-first-ota/

Connecting over telnet, and run Stage1 with this command:

dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/SlapMyMoto.jar SlapMyMoto

When the device tells you to reboot, do this manually with "adb reboot" or your power button. It will not auto reboot on this step

Step3)

Once the device has rebooted, run Impactor again and connect over telnet just like in the previous step, then run the same command

dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/SlapMyMoto.jar SlapMyMoto

Once the device has rebooted, please take the 4.4 OTA.

Step4)

Now that we are on 4.4, we can finish the process with adb shell:

adb shell
cp /sdcard/install.sh /data/local/tmp/install.sh
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/install.sh
echo "/data/local/tmp/install.sh" > /sys/kernel/uevent_helper

Then either wait, or toggle your bluetooth. Once the device reboots, you will have root.

Some times you have to manually reboot your device and also manually install SuperSU from the market place
[Moto X Q&A] byrdmang2:
Okay, I'm gonna try it again. What I'm seeing for myself as well as everyone else: fastboot camera update > rsd.

Should I root check before taking the ota to make sure everything's in working order? Especially when the times it's supposed to reboot on its own, don't.
[Moto X Q&A] dray_jr:
nope just flash the 4.2.2 CU firmware and start the slapmymoto guide when u get to the end reboot after it boots up look for SU if not there install and open see if the binaries will install then check root.
[Moto X Q&A] byrdmang2:
Well sir, whatever method(s) I was/were using were obviously wrong or just bad, cause I got the 4.4 root!

I got kinda nervous when I had to manually reboot at the end and wait for supersu to install.

Thank you very much for your assistance! Thanks are in order :good:

Hello! Geespr user here, felt like showing some love for all users of this wonderful device :)

So here's some Mahdi! :D Mahdii786 did a great job on it, so we should all buy his beer (and my soda)

So here''s the goods! Enjoy! THE GOODS

So.... Discuss all errors with this build here, discuss general discussings in the main thread, so let's keep it clean k?

Also, I can't test, so try to describe it well, provide a log if possible :)

How much can it hold? Even my laptop has 2 1tb HDD. And its a awesome cheap one at that.

The real question how much space do you need, to do several updates? And keep them all from start to current?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] ThatKawaiiGuy:
Well, UEFI was a jerk, so I had to use Builduntu. And the Builduntu maker max's out the max amount of memory you can give it to 100 gigs.

Mahdi itself is maybe 35

And each of the model builds in about 20 and then (somehow) turns itself into a 200mb zip

I can hold 2 at once since system takes up 9gb

So... Yeah

And I promised the CFX people I would work on that too and CFX took up a buttload of data

So when I do that, expect maybe a week or two with no new builds, and then once I'm done with that, I'll make it for the variants and then get back to Mahdi, and then some HellKat :)

[AT&T LG Optimus G] ThatKawaiiGuy:
No problem, but this whole thing with the kernel and no LED and no pocket mode is driving me nuts, I'm gonna switch kernels until it gets resolved. Geespr gets dailys since I know what's wrong, and can find how to fix it. All the stuff on the variants depends on you guys :)
