Easier, Sorry if you don't like your posts being edited.

Hi all

I've seen many posts where people are asking for root, but get nothing proper.

I'm a noob and so I will try and make this as simple as possible.

First just relax and follow this simple steps its very very very easy.

All you need:

>Complete data back up

>Download Flash tool........................-> https://unrestrict.li/flashtool

[If you face any issue over there,

then you can download flash tool via torrent..............................->http://kickass.to/usearch/flashtool-...2-windows.exe/ ]

>Download new kernel {update 2}........-> http://d-h.st/mxn

>Download required files....................-> http://d-h.st/iXN

>Download Easy Root Tool kit..........-> http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2784900

>A cup of coffee. :p

>At least 50% battery charged phone.

>USB debugging mode enabled on 4.4.3 firmware, as we will need it. So, do it first then go ahead.

Instructions:

Now follow these easy steps:

1. Install flash tool in "C drive."

2. Extract all downloaded rar files(except EasyRootTool) into "C:\Flashtool\firmwares"

3. Turn off phone and press vol - (down) key and connect phone to PC, wait till PC completes to install required drivers. As soon as its done, disconnect your phone.

4. Now open flash tool and hit flash button and select "4.4.2.ftf" and press OK and wait for notification which says "connect phone."

5. Now as soon as you get notification press vol -(down) key and connect phone and wait till flash completes.

6. Now disconnect your phone, close flash tool.

7. Turn ON phone there would be nothing, but your phone struck at blank screen, don't worry reconnect your phone to PC.

8. Now open easy root tool kit, and hit "install.bat," this will root your phone. If struck at any place close window "again hit install.bat," disconnect phone when you see "phone is rooted".

9.Now read this carefully

Your phone is rooted. But you need to flash 4.4.3 kernel back to make your phone normal. So, we need to turn off the phone as we have to connect phone in flash mode to flash "4.4.3 update 2"

So, to turn off phone in this condition(blank screen) follow this trick,

Press vol +(up) and power together and wait.

First you'll fell single vibration, keep holding it. After few seconds, you will fell three times vibration, now release the keys as your phone is turned off.

10. Now open flash tool now again, hit flash button and this time select "4.4.3.ftf(update 2)" press OK and connect your phone when it says to connect by pressing vol - (down) key on phone.

11. As soon as its done disconnect your phone and turn it ON.

12. Now install SuperSU by chainfire from Playstore and hit update binary.

13. TADAAAA you have rooted phone.

Hope this helped you.

If you face any problem, please, report back.

Thank you..

Hit Thanks if I helped you!

[Sony Xperia T2 Ultra] krishna442:
Switch off your phone by pressing volume + button and power button at once, it'll vibrate for three times then release those buttons.

Flash 4.4.3 update 2 kernel...(again open flashtool, hold volume - button and insert USB cable, select 4.4.3 update, hit flash)

You'll have root and device will reboot.

Please read instructions carefully and follow them precisely)

Happy flashing!

That tick means you are authorising your system for usb debugging access.

doesn`t work for me

Hi,

i tried many times, but after flashing 4.4.2 kernel, when rooting, i run win.bat , and it always stuck waiting for me to allow the phone to accept the root, but as the screen is black, and i can`t see anything, it doesn`t root the phone.

How can i root if i don`t see anything in my phone?

is tehere any other way, or trick?

Please help me, because i`m trying to get root since after the last update. i`m almost giving up of this phone because of this, i love this phone, but i can`t stay without root mainly due to the internal memory, only 8GB is not enough, my next phone will have at least 16GB.

Before flashing the kernel, make sure your device usb debugging is active and your computer has been authorised by your device to use the usb debugging

Rooting doesn't unlock bootloader bro. You can root your device, and you can still get official updates.

You can unroot again by selecting "repair your device" if you wish to, from pc companion.

Little different

Just got the clear ones in today. Mine aren't what Amazon shows but they differ from the ones you received as well. There are cutouts for the bottom sensors and a centered cutout at the top. It's also smaller than the screen to avoid the curved edges. They actually sent me an email after ordering it explaining why it's smaller than the phone.

I was just looking at these from Amazon, I usually go straight otterbox for my phones and I've found the screen protectors that come with it are adequate so I've never shopped around for other screen protectors. I just got this bumper/case in: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00N3VHD6C

It fits quite snug and I'm wondering how it will sit with a tempered glass cover.

Hey guys, here's an Odin flashable of the NH7 modem, for those who wish to remain on their current setup but still benefit from having the new baseband.

The steps to flash this are as follows (make sure you have the Samsung mobile drivers installed so that your phone can be recognized by Odin):

-Disconnect your phone from the PC, if it's connected.

-Completely power down your phone, not reboot, or boot into download mode, but power down.

-Power back on your phone into download mode (vol+down,power,home)

-Open Odin (3.04/3.09) and connect your phone to the PC. At this point, Odin shoudl say <<Added>> or something of the sort.

-Uncheck "auto reboot" from Odin.

-Load up this NH7 baseband tar image into the PDA (3.04) or AP(?) (3.09) section of Odin, and flash.

-Once complete, disconnect your phone, remove the battery for around 5-10 seconds, then power your phone back on into download mode.

-Check "auto reboot" from Odin.

-Flash again, then let your phone auto reboot back into android.

-You should either receive an "android has been upgraded" message or you can verify you're on the new baseband by checking settings>about

-Profit

Note: Steps were taken from the unlock thread in general.

This is hillarious -- i've just flashed this modem, and now I'm unable to get past my pin entry.

anyone ever had this problem?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Gellenole:
IF you're on NC5 - make sure you remove your pin lock before you flash this modem, for some reason I can affirm that this modem will mess your pin up.

and if you flash NC5's baseband modem back, it will not recover your pin (this is a "duhh" but I wanted to see if there was a way to revert and it was doing something to the settings.db file (most likely it does))

Here's what you should do (after 2 hours of screwing around and finding ways to sqlite the crap out of settings.db.)

1 - the usual removal of lock patterns will work

2 - the usual removal of PASSWORDS will work

3 - PIN removal will NOT WORK - so if you got a pin this is what you do.

1 - remove the pin auth while you are using NC5 or another rom version

2 - flash the NH7 modem if you would like

3 - once you flash NH7 feel free and reset your pin (don't know why we gotta flash twice, I flashed once without the reboot option and it worked for me)

4 - All is done.

what i did is just flashed in oden the NC5 modem/baseband and that allows you to put the correct pin in if anyone else has this problem
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] JonSCSL:
I have heard this before. So if you flash a modem you have to remove you pin lock. The flashing does something to the stored pins.
