Hello guys!

We have the same problems with our Kyocera Brigadier(Verizon) (bootloader is locked, can't edit APN settings, new kernel). If root will be suitable for our phone too, you can add our donation from this thread.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mwebb34:
It would be awesome to see a bootloader unlock, but that's not gonna happen at least I don't think it will. As for root that would be good and maybe a recovery like safestrap would be nice. Good luck, iv got 11 days left to decide if I wanna get the LG g3

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] freddy0872:
I don't personally care if it trips Knox either. Just freeze Knox when we get root and say goodbye to the horrid notifications! It's merely just a plus not tripping it. In case of mfg warranty.

Otherwise I'm as happy as a clam
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] dpoverlord:
If I am correct, the reason there are no roms is since the Note 4 has no root.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] freddy0872:
That would be correct
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] mwebb34:
Yeah I would say you're right, it would be impossible to flash a rom without being rooted.[emoji33]

I read that the developer version of the note 4 SAMSUNG-SM-N910V' can be rooted with cf is that true?

Well that the version shown in my phone so I kinda wanted to be able to see most of my Web page now using ad away because 80% of the screen gets blocked by nice ads from time you time while in landscape mode
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] freddy0872:
Retail and DE both show SM-N910V

You have to look for the full model such as SMN910VZKE

I did the same thing. Seen it was N910V thought VZW shipped me a DE and i did a little more digging and found the truth lol. Technically you can only get the DE from samsung them selves anyway. I dont think VZW has access to any of that inventory
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jw0914:
To the first, yes.

To the second, it is not the same model #. The full model number of your non-DE Note 4 extends past the "V" (which denotes the model as a VZW variant), and if you go to Samsung's page for the Note 4, you will see the non-DE is SM-N910VZKEVZW, and the DE SM-N910VMKEVZW.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] U01637:
Let me reiterate...35 for root...50 for root w/ no knox trip...100 for bootloader unlock

You're Gonna regret That unless ALL You care about is root and custom roms the g3 is inferior in every other way,still a solid phone though .

Does anyone know what the total amount pledged for the bounty is so far?

Also do we just say the dollar amount we want to donate here or is there a paypal link to make donations?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Stryke_the_Orc:
Just the dollar amount, no Paypal links until root is achieved
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] freddy0872:
Hey guys! I got struck with a sense of curiosity. A midst all of the talk here and yes allot of money being offered up I decided to start a POLL just to get a feel for that all us Note 4 users think. Just asks if we think we will see an Unlock/Root method for the device! If you want pop on over to the thread and throw down a vote! I think it would prove very interesting on what people feel/think!

I know we have our own discussion threads on it and im not trying to take away from them but I think it would be good to get a POLL going so everyone has an idea on how we all feel! Just dropping a vote is plenty! :good:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Kyuta Syuko:
I setup a spreadsheet that I try to update nightly though I'm not sure how well I'll be able to update the AT&T pledges now that the AT&T Thread was closed because guidelines were broken...

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dcmrzNd5UMdCbQUVcR8Bz_WHU5bGT0Da6D0DLOW0TZA/edit?usp=sharing

I don't see any reason to stop. Especially since some people will flake out or change devices and forget to retract their pledge.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Rootuser3.0:
Well if we never stop then whoever comes up with root will make everyone wait to see if pot gets bigger, correct? At least that's would I would do lol. OK bash me everyone not at once thought lol.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] :
Thanks for sharing the spread sheet.... I really like this device and wish I could donate more. Although I could live without root if need be, I would like to see root achieved for those in the XDA community who really desire it and I'm glad to contribute :D

Hey can't bash a man for being honest lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] deathshead:
There is no "Set goal" I took the thermometer graphic down, it was just a graphical representation of where pledges currently were.

If someone wants to let the pot get sweeter there is always the chance they will lose out if someone else grabs it..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] FalcB:
I'll pledge $50 for root, regardless of Knox tripping, and $100 for a bootloader unlock, pipe dream though it may be.

Edit: The "pipe dream" part of my post only refers to the "bootloader unlock" part of the above statement, not to root with or without Knox tripping. I'm firmly optimistic our retail VZW Note 4 will get root! Sorry for the confusion.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Enzopreme:
We have amazing devs... especially the Samsung devices. I think root, at the very least, is obtainable.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] triton302:
I've been holding off on the N4 because of root. I utilize several apps daily that require root access, so this is important. I've been trying for the last week to buy the Dev version on Sammy's website but alas, it's still on backorder. I guess I'll either get the Dev version first when it's available or the retail version if it gets rooted first.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] TBacker:
I'm getting frustrated with the whole reduction of choice on the Android platform. My Note 2 is still working pretty good on 4.4.2, but wouldn't have the longevity (for me) if it wasn't rooted.

Newer devices are increasingly difficult to root. L is going to be nearly impossible. Developer edition production runs are being tightly limited. Nexus devices are decent but compromise too much.

With this crazy bounty up, and little to no chatter as to whether anyone is making progress, I'm afraid our only recourse is to fight to the death over the next batch of 15 developer editions released for the whole country...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] VirgilWoods:
I'm dev edition owner and I will totally pledge 30 dollars towards an unlocked bootloader so we can finally see some custom roms and modding going on.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] JOSHSKORN:
I'll be honest, I already pledged an amount, but I just might leave a good tip at this point, depending on what ends up actually happening. I hope someone comes through sooner than later. You know the deal, the faster and better the service, the better the tip.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] shojus:
[MENTION=2823580]deathshead[/MENTION] I am going to have to cancel my pledges as I have switched to T-Mobile because I just can't stand Verizon locking everything down! I will still donate $20 to anyone that can unlock the bootloader as I love the development but can't be stuck with devices that are locked down anymore. Hope you guys get root! :D
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] StevetotheH:
$75 for Verizon root, $100 for Verizon bootloader. I couldn't care less about Knox trips.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] DrSeussFreak:
We don't stop, we are also tracking a bounty list on the AT&T side. The more pledges we collect, the more bounty for whomever cracks the code, it will just be that much more of a bounty for the developer to cash in on.

And Motorola's website at odd times

You can get the on GooglePlayStore if your lucky

Finally after weeks of trying I was able to order one on the GPS, midnight blue 64g. Probably won't get it until December, but I will just use my note2 until then. I just can't hope that the N4 gets root and unlocked boot loader.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] palmcrash:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jw0914:
Don't believe bootloader exploit is possible

I could very well be wrong, however I don't believe it's possible for an exploit to unlock the bootloader on any Samsung device.... this has to do with how Samsung allows the bootloader to be unlocked, which is through a certificate and is bound to that specific device (it's software based, not hardware based). This is also the major downside of buying any Samsung device that is capable of having it's bootloader unlocked... once a user requests the Samsung signed certificate, that user is locked to that specific version of Android, and if they flash another OEM version via ODIN, it relocks the bootloader and Samsung will not reissue you a signed certificate (you can get around this by flashing the individual partitions, but if you ever flash the aboot partition after unlocking, your phone will not be bootloader unlockable again). I'll quote the developer SamuriHL on this one:

"The short version is that each device has a customized signed aboot partition. When the phone boots up, it sees that the aboot partition contains a signed certificate appended to the aboot partition and then runs in insecure mode. If you overwrite your aboot partition with a non-signed version, it will boot in secure mode. And no, you can't sign your own. And no, you can't get Samsung to fix it. And yes, this has been tested quite a bit. People who did this to their DE's now have lovely expensive CE's that can't be unlocked."

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] choder:
Of course this is a Verizon thread what else would it be? I had a Verizon N4 and thats why I was in this thread. I just stated I sold it and would not be in the bounty and ordered a N6.

Both the Nexus 6 GPS edition and Motorollas website edition are compatible with Verizon. This has been discussed in depth on other forums and sites. It has been stated by many sources that Verizon will be caring the N6 but there has been no release date yet.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jw0914:
That's wonderful you don't... However many do and have offered money in both note 4 threads for the bootloader to be unlocked, not to mention the OP (whom it appears doesn't realize either that its nigh impossible to unlock the bootloader of a Samsung device because they use a software lock instead of a hardware lock like Moto uses).

but when i say the bootloader will not be unlocked I get my post removed and my head chewed off.....

ya know what... i am over this thread... i have pledged to donate $550 bucks in 2 posts and I will now be keeping my money. You can take 550 off of the total. Sorry guys but you can blame the mods for the loss of a big donation on this one... now ill be like everyone else and enjoy root for free once it is released. and ill enjoy my nexus 6 until then.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Stryke_the_Orc:
Blame us for removing an entirely disrespectful post? I'm sorry but I fail to see how removing a post calling another member profane names justifies us being responsible for you pulling your pledge. Point the finger anywhere you like, you're the only one responsible for your actions.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] deathshead:
The totals reflect root/knox with the bonus being bootloader which is more than likely not going to happen unless there is some inside leak. Look, Even the Droid X bootloader isnt unlocked yet.

Please take your ball and go home. The only thing you have done here for us is try to steer the ship off topic with complaining and bickering.

Furthermore, The lack of patience is staggering latley which is probably why even if headway has been made with root I know if i was a developer I would be sitting back with a beer watching impatient people such as yourself self destruct about it.

I urge everyone who is impatient, if you have any ideas about moving away from the VZW or ATT Note 4 variants

Ask to be taken off, we will remove you and please do not come back here when you have nothing better to do than start trouble, let us know that your new phone is so great, etc and take us off course.

Has anyone ever seen the Twilight Zone Episode - The Monsters are on Main st. Its just like the last scene...

Ok now. Lets get back on track here guys. We are almost at $10,000!

Like Axl Rose said. Just a little Patience. And dont act like a jerk to annoy the devs, they owe you nothing at this point.
