[Galaxy Note 3 General] amrit dhindsa:
For the uninitiated, rooting a smartphone is the process of gaining "root access," which is essentially a top-level permission, on a smartphone or tablet. The reason that many smartphone users want root access to their phones is that it allows them to overcome limitations placed on a device by phone carriers, hardware manufacturers and more. In essence, rooting a smartphone gives you the ability to customize the operating system to fit your needs, run specialized software and perform other administrator-level tasks to your smartphone.

Warning: Rooting a smartphone is not for the faint of heart. In a large majority of cases, rooting your smartphone will void the warranty of the device. Furthermore, rooting a smartphone incorrectly may leave the device "bricked," or in layman's terms, incapable or being turned on ever again. Please proceed with rooting your device at your own risk.

If you're still interested in how to root your Galaxy Note 3, we've put together an extremely easy tutorial that you can follow based on information found at XDA-Developers. Here's exactly how to root the international variant of the Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005) and how to install a custom ROM on the device:

Step One: Verify that you are using the Galaxy Note 3 LTE SM-N9005. Back-up all of the data on your phone just in case something goes awry. Charge your battery to make sure that the smartphone has at least 80 percent. We would recommend charging you battery all the way. Install any USB drivers on the computer that you'll be using. Verify that the Galaxy Note 3 LTE SM-N9005 is running build XXUENB7. Enable USB Debugging on the smartphone.

Step Two: Download "CF-Auto-Root Android 4.4.2" and "Odin v3.09". Extract both .zip files. You should see files named ".tar.md5" and "Odin3 v3.0.9.exe".

Step Three: Turn off the phone, and reboot in Download Mode. In order to get the phone to boot in Download Mode, hold the Volume Down, Home and Power buttons together. A warning will appear across the screen, but simply ignore it. Click the Volume Up button to enter Download Mode.

Step Four: Run Odin3 v3.09.exe on your computer. Connect the Galaxy Note 3 LTE SM-N9005 to the computer using a USB cable. If the smartphone has been connected properly, a message will pop-up on your computer screen that says "Added!!" If the message does not appear when you connect your device, make sure that you have enabled USB Debugging on the device and that you have installed the proper drivers on your computer.

Step Five: Click on the AP button in Odin, and select the Cf-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar.md5 file that was extracted from the .zip file earlier in this tutorial. In Odin, check the Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time options. Click the Start button in Odin.

Step Six: The computer will begin to root the smartphone. During this period, do not disconnect your smartphone from your computer. The software on your computer should flash your Galaxy Note 3 LTE SM-N9005 and restart the smartphone automatically. Once the smartphone has rebooted and a "Pass" message appears in Odin, you can disconnect your device.

Step Seven: Confirm that you have successfully rooted your smartphone by installing Root Checker from the Google Play store.

Step Eight: Once the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 LTE SM-N9005 has been rooted, users can install custom ROMs on the device that will help optimize certain features of the phone. It may take a few tries before you find the perfect custom ROM for your Galaxy Note 3, but there are plenty to choose from, and we imagine that you're bound to find one that you enjoy. We'd recommend starting with X-Note [N9005] or Bobcat KitKat.

Step Nine: Enjoy!!
