[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] zidemizar:
Hi, I will write a step by step guide on what worked for me for those having issues in getting root using kingoroot or any of the steps in the guide.

1. Use odin to flash the N915V-MOD-ROM.tar (make sure your computer has the samsung drivers installed, access download mode on your note by holding vol down and home then press and hold power, you will see a screen asking you to press vol up to continue, please do so. You will see a big android and some words on the upper left, at this point is irrelevant what the top left screen says.) make sure odin shows a port and select the file under AP. Press start and let the process run.

2. Once flashed your phone will reboot, once fully booted shut down the phone and access the recovery option by holding vol up and home then press and hold power, do a factory reset, once phone boots up, set up the phone (wi-fi will not be working so just skip to the end) enable developer menu, always awake while connected and usb debugging, under security check "allow unknown sources"

3. install the latest version of kingoroot on your pc, start up kingoroot, connect your phone with a usb cable and follow on screen messages and attempt to root (in my case rooting reached 99% and it fails after putting the phone in download mode, top left in red letters should say something along the lines of "security check cache"). Leave the phone connected to the computer and remove the battery, put the battery back and boot up the phone. Check under your phone apps and you will see a few new items in there. Once it has booted up and recognized by your computer run a second attempt with kingoroot. Now during the second attempt you will see that your phone will request that you grant adb access, allow access to adb and you will see that the root attempt will go much faster, wait a few more minutes for more prompts in the phone (there is sometimes two prompts and sometimes just one). This time around your phone will not be put in download mode and you will see a screen that says root with a checkmark on it and the kingoroot on your computer will also say root successful.

4. Put a microsd card on your card slot, any size bigger than 1gb should work since it will just be used for loader's back up.

5. Grab minimal adb and download the unlock file from here https://xdaforums.com/note-edge/ver...nt/official-verizon-galaxy-note-edge-t3386407

6. place the unlock file in the same folder you have minimal adb.

7. run the commands one by one (sometimes the phone will disconnect after the first command, make sure you type the first command again)

8. if everything goes well you should be given a yes/no question at the end, just type yes and press enter

9. Once unlocking is done your phone will reboot, take the microsd card out and copy the information on it somewhere else (format the microsd card back to its original size (you will notice your microsdcard storage space will be much smaller about 15 to 15mbs only) before putting it back on the phone or it will cause your phone to reboot and boot loop).

10. Shut down the phone once it has booted completely.

11. put phone in download mode and make sure that there is a line on your upper left corner that says "mode:developer", if it doesnt run the unlock again. Once you have confirmed unlock use odin to flash MM-STOCK-N915V.tar.md, it will take some time when you select it on AP but be patient and do not force close odin or disconnect your phone from the computer.

12. Phone will reboot and will go through the booting process, you will see something different if everything went fine.

13. Once phone is fully booted, restart the phone wile pressing vol up and home, this will bring you to recovery, do a factory reset.

14. reboot phone and confirm that wifi is accessible, no need to finish set up since we will wipe a few more times.

15. restart phone while holding vol down and home, this puts you in download mode, check upper left corner that your phone still shows as developer.

16. Install twrp-3.0.2.0_N915V.tar using odin through AP (check for file on steelroms), phone will reboot, before phone boots up remove the battery. replace battery and hold vol up and home, then press and hold power to access twrp, reboot system.

17. let the phone boot up and restart while holding vol up and home to enter twrp, do a wipe, then a dalvik cache wipe too.

18. if everything works you can skip flashing the kernel and supersu.zip, otherwise make a back up in twrp before you attempt anything else.
