Can I ask a huge favor? Can you write a simple list of steps you did. That thread is chaos from people who have 10 different devices. Like a simple

1. step a

2. step b

I don't want to screw up the device I just bought yesterday lol.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] snir2:
sure,

1. downloaded the file from towelroot.com

2. installed the apk file

3. Run the app

4. the device rebooted

5. installed supersu from the play store

done....:)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Gatsrom:
Wow, Ok I thought there would be more haha. You said you were on a sm-p905, I wonder if this will go as smooth on an sm-p900. I'm on the wifi not lte version. Any guess?

Thanks for summarizing that though.

edit: seeing mixed results related to the Exynos chips from people's s4s and s5s. hmm.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Spere:
Can you please tell more details about your SM-P905

AP, CP, CSC (These can be found at least on SM-P905 by opening dialer, then type *#1234#)

Kernel version (Settings - General - About device)

And for any else of you, if you try this method, report please how did it go, did you got root? did it trip KNOX flag and what firmware version you were using, thanks :)

here
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Spere:
Thank you..

Anyway, I pulled the trigger and tried this on my SM-P905, it kinda worked.. I'll post my device info later since I didn't have time for that, had to go to work just after rooting..

SM-P905

AP: P905XXUAND1

CP: P905XXUANA7

CSC: P905NEEAND1

Kernel verison: 3.4.0-1131235 (April 3 2014)

Okay then..

I installed and ran tr.apk

Then after reboot I checked recovery

KNOX Warranty Void: 0x0

System status: custom

Then I installed SuperSU (v1.94 if I remember right) from play store (and paid version also)

When I open SuperSU, it asks me to install binary. Since I got stock recovery, I can't use that option and instead choose normal way.

SuperSU says: install failed, please reboot your device

Anyway my device is rooted since Greenify and couple other root apps worked (and SuperSU asked to grand or deny access for those apps)

But because I cannot install that binary, I cannot open SuperSU to change settings etc..

There is v1.99r4(?) of SuperSU, but that is flashable .zip file, and how I'm supposed to install that with stock recovery. And I'm sceptic about flashing anything, in case of triggering KNOX.

Okay, as #snir2 said, I downloaded SuperSU from HERE (was v1.99r5). I unzip that and took Superuser.apk from there and installed it on my NP 12.2. After that SU updated binary using normal method like it should and everythings ok :P

And after all this odin mode still shows this:

System Status: Custom

KNOX Warranty Void: 0x0

Will do some tests tomorrow and if there comes anything interesting, I'll post some info..
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] snir2:
JUST OPEN THE Zip.

U will find the apk file inside...
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] snir2:
did u check with "root checker"?

at first the binaries weren't installed for me, but, when checking with "root checker" I did have root.

the supersu in the play store is not the last version of the app... u need to download it from chainfire's site:

download.chainfire.eu/supersu

then it will install the binaries
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Spere:
Thank you, that did work!!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] snir2:
mine says: "System Status: official"
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Spere:
I'm not worried about custom status because if I'm right:

- I cannot accidentally update phone since OTA is not possible with custom status

- I can fake status back to official using Wanam Xposed

- I can get status back also by flashing stock rom again, if I need to

Does this work on WiFi only version?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ansonscleung:
For those who can't root for P905 (LTE version), I have found a solution.

1. Update the kernel to NC1 or newer through Download Mode

(like this one at the bottom of OP)

2. Root with towelroot. This time if you see those wordings after pressing "Make it ra1n", it works!

I have P905ZSUANB1/P905XXUANA7/P905OZSANB1 on my tablet and after I update the kernel to NC1, I got it rooted! YAY!

BTW I get "System status: Official" in both Download Mode and under Settings, and also 0x0 for the f**king KNOX thing

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] ansonscleung:
Take a look at post 18 of the thread? I was also using 3.4.0-636608 kernel before.

Update the kernel to a newer version (of course before June 3rd, e.g. NC1) will make towelroot work.

Perhaps the trick will work for WiFi version P900 too.

Don't be worry because as long as your kernel is Samsung-made, your KNOX thing (and warranty) won't blow away.

Need some help please. I have a P905. I installed a different region firmware and reinstalled my region. This changed my csc to the default as my firmware is multi-csc. I was thinking of rooting to change the csc back to my region then unroot. I just want to make triple sure that doing this will be fine in terms of not tripping knox? Do I root install supersu disable knox do the csc change and reflash original firmware? Or should I root install supersu leave knox active from supersu, change the csc and unroot from supersu?

Thanks

Performance after rooting and debloating

Don't forget to freeze your security update apk after rooting ;)

P905 international model.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] snir2:
What is it?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] najoor:
This is a screenshot of the performance results for your SM-P905 tablet after you root it and remove bloatware from it and run Antutu benchmark on it. This shows how good the performance is after the rooting and debloating.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] snir2:
No, I mean what is security update apk?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] najoor:
Samsung has a program running on most of its devices that pushes "Security Updates" onto the device. In the past week or so, Samsung has been patching its phones and tablets, including Pro 12.2 tablets, to close the hole that towelroot uses. If you make the mistake of accepting this security update you will never be able to use towelroot to root your tablet (well, there is a slight chance that you can still play a trick and do it but for all practical purposes let's say it is impossible).

So here is my suggestion for people who want to root their tablet pro or are planning to do so in future:

1- If you have not rooted your tablet yet:

A) Go to settings -> general -> security -> Security ploicy updates and disable automatic updates.

B) Go to settings -> About device -> software update -> and turn Auto update off

Be careful not to accidentally hit Manual Check for Updates when you are in those menus

2- If you are already rooted, it doesn't mean that Samsung is gonna stop trying to patch your device. In fact cases have been reported where the security update has reversed the root and blocked it permanently. So in addition to the above you should do one of the following:

A) Install Titanium Backup Pro

B) Go to Backup/Restore and find: Security Policy Updates SPD

C) Click on it and hit freeze

OR

A) Install Titanium Backup

B) Go to Backup/Restore and find: Security Policy Updates SPD

C) Click on it and hit backup

D) after a backup is made, click on it again and hit Un-install.

OR

Use an advanced file manager, go to /system/priv-app and rename the following files:

SDPClient.apk --> _SDPClient.apk.backup

SDPClient.odex --> _SDPClient.odex.backup

--------------------------------------------------------------

Although it may not be necessary, If you are paranoid like me, I suggest that after rooting you do the above also for:

Samsung Push Service (/system/priv-app/SPPPushClient_Prod.apk)

LocalFOTA (/system/app/LocalFOTA.apk)

FWUpgrade (/system/app/FWUpgrade.apk and odex)

Software Update (/system/priv-app/FotaClient.apk and odex, and SyncmlDM.apk and odex)

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Mad07:

SM-P905

first of all upgrade to the latest FW .....C3, Towelroot, SuperSU, - but I must make a reboot in between to disable Knox.

= Status => Original

= Knox => 0x0

:good:
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] rainabba:
How exactly do you "enter the code"? I hit the label 3 times it confirms each tap but nothing ever happens. No prompt, no keyboard coming up, etc..

UPDATE: Never mind. Killed TowelRoot and relaunched then it behaved as expected.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] zdoey33:
I can confirm if its the policy update that doesn't let u choose normal ,mode and reverts to high alert mode, I rooted afterwards and its silently pushed either way. . But I rooted and without any additional freezings , just the supersu ones, disabling knox, had no issue so far. . I got my tab snappier too by tossing adblock for adaway.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Tigerstown:
Hey there. My deaughter got one of these yesterday from grandma. Myself I'm a HTC expert only. Never seen or touched a Samsung so I qucik question. Last night I tried to run towelroot soon as I ran it the pad just rebooted an stayed on black screen till I held power+vol up. Guess I'm asking is it normal to go to black screen rt away an I didn't wait long enough or does that don't sound rt? Any input would be great thanks
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Mad07:
It's not normal ... Maybe you hold the key's to long to received the recovery menu ?

Which tab does you have SM-P905 ? [LTE Version?]

Press long time the power key, than the Tab should make a reboot.

Why you press first of all "till I held power+vol up" ? I haven't read, that you've install SuperSU and disable Knox ?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Tigerstown:
I

Yea sm-p905. LTE on vzw

It wouldn't turn on after I ran towelroot...so I did the only thing I know which with HTC power+vol forces reboot. So on Samsung just power button forces reboot?

After it booted I tried to install SuperSU said binaries not installed an can't install them on device. So I don't really know if towelroot even work. As rt when I ran apk it shut the pad down

There is no issue with my pad I'm just asking....I just wish HTC made pads lol
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] rirawin:
So does this still work with p905?

Plus if I want to deroot and sell later on, how do I do that?.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Mad07:
It's works,

I've updated the stockfirmware to ...C3

after that I run Towelroot ; install root checker from google play and check root ; install Super SU from google play, let it run, try to disable Knox.

If the message box " Knox disable" does not go away after some time, reboot the tab and try it again. Then Knox should be disabled after a few seconds.

Now you can download a script here from the forum to rename Knox and components and bloatware

For what does you try to get root, if you want sell the Tab unrooted ?

-> Make only the Firmware update via WiFI or OTA, let it run -> root is away ( for this Knox must be on 0x0 and the status should be "original" )
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] maquan:
Tested on P901, not compatible :(
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Mad07:
The P905 has a Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU and Towelroot works fine with this combination

Your CPU is a Samsung Exynos 5 Octa 5420 and so you must look into the P900 thread, The P900 contain the Exynos CPU, too.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] rirawin:
Ok if I use towelroot, what happens if I need to factory reset my p905. Will the towelroot be gone, and more importantly can I reset and erase back to factory settings?.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] rainabba:
Towelroot is just an app that hacks root access, allowing for the SU binary to be placed. If you factory reset, all your apps are gone (including Towelroot) and the SU binary will be wiped along with everything else in /System.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] rirawin:
Thank you for your reply, however, if resetting my p905 back to defaults removes Towelroot then how come people are asking about unrooting towel root in other threads?.

Plus, once I install towelroot what do I do afterwards?, I like apps to delete files from my sd card like before however, I'm not sure what I'm meant to do.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Mad07:
Because They didn't know ?

After Towelroot, you should install SuperSU and e.g. RootExplorer. With the rootExplorer you can "walk" through the full phone and delete whatever you want [If you delete the wrong files from the system, the phone will not start anymore you receive a lot of errormessages. Be careful. ]
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] rirawin:
Thank you:)

Can I ask you what does SU?, all I want to do with my note pro is to allow apps to delete files from the sd card. I hear there's a fix for that.

Plus which app in the play store so I can mod and allow to add multiwindow apps please?

Also what happens if there's an upgrade from Samsung, will that break the OS and towelroot.

Apologies but this is all new to me.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Mad07:
SuperSU is the Superuser access management tool. You have the possibility to allow other application to act as user root (can do everything)

The Os ? I don't will hope so, that Samsung will break the OS

Towelroot ? Not the application by himself, but you will lost the root-access and in depend of the new OS / Security fixes the possibility to received root back with towelroot

btw.: If you can write something on the SD Card ( also on the internal one) you can also delete the files on the SD : You don't need root. Only in the case, that there are some special permission ( like only the user can write/delte the files, other user have only read access ....
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] rirawin:
Thanks, Its just Comicat won't delete comics from my sd card but perfect viewer does?.

Plus I want to add sketchbook to doodle while browsing which I can't, unless there's an alternative besides rooting.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Spere:
Google did some changes to make device more sercure when they released KitKat, so user-installed apps can't do so much with external sd card.

If you root your device, you can manually navigate to /system/etc/permissions with some root browser

Then open platform.xml and find this, and add the red line.

<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
[COLOR="Red"]<group gid="media_rw" />[/COLOR]
</permission>

Save it, check permissions and reboot. This is how I did it on my Note 3 (If I just remeber it right lol)

What I did with my NP 12.2? I installed Xposed Installer, from Installer go to Framework and install it. Then go to Download section on Installer and find HandleExternalStorage (Or download it from Play Store), install it, enable it on Modules section of Installer and reboot. Done!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] rirawin:
Thank you for the reply, this does seem a bit too complex for me. Isn't there an app on the play store which automatically solves this?.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 General] Spere:
You could try NextApp SDFix

Hey, I'm a comp sci/eng major and I'm trying to get my feet soaked in android and other languages other than c++, ruby, and go. What I would like to do is take the base of android and rebuild it a little bit by adding features to make more use of our phones, somewhat like how the MIUI ROM is. However, I don't know where to start, I've tried looking up on Google about this, but I keep coming across ROM cooking, and that's not what I'm trying to do. Clearly, I need to learn java, and probably few more languages; as well as how android works as an os which I have. If anyone can lead me into the right direction by sending links on how to give android an overhaul, disect apk, ROMs, and the programs I'll need, I think I should be fine. Thank you in advance.

Download MobileMe by wondershare and it will let you move aps from store to gear. It's a 14 day free trial though.

Noob question: would MobileMe work? I thought its for Android only, and OP has a Tizen gear.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Mr Ian B:
I would try an app like google play music, try load it and see if it works. Also load app easy uninstall because mobile me app will auto install and easy uninstall will let u remove any app u side load.

Let us kno if it works for the next person.

Ian B
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] bballengphd:
That's not really my question.

I don't think Wondershare would work here as it is for Android only. And OP has already upgrade to Tizen. So far from what I can see on here, no one has reported any success of installing Android apps on Tizen, whether it be through Wondershare, adb, or any other method.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Mr Ian B:
Ok my bad, but good info to know I get my refurbished gear watch tomorrow and hopes it comes w android. If it does I won't update to Tizen. I am not seeing anything worth upgrading to it for. On the other hand, I know how to root and side load apps to android OS and add theme.

Ian. B
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] bballengphd:
Don't worry about it, its all good.

Chances are your new refurb'd gear will still be on android, even if it is on Tizen, there is a way to downgrade to android, check it out in the General forum.

One thing to keep in mind is the gear has only one communication method: bluetooth. That is it will always need to be connected with your phone, be it notifications, phone calls, sms, or any kind of internet. It does not have wifi or any cell communications at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Mr Ian B:
Yeah, no problem. I previously had a gear watch but sold and since then the gear has been updated to Tizen. I will keep it on android Sw for as long as possible since I know how to root it, flash themes and side load apps.

Ian B
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] xHC96x:
I had to upgrade to Tizen because I connected the Gear with my HTC One and with android I didn't received notifications on my Gear. Now with Tizen everything works. Thats the reason why I had to upgrade to Tizen.

As you said MobileGo doesn'tnwork, how can I install Samsung App Store on my Htc One? I think it's the only way to install apps on the Gear with Tizen.
