[Q] error: cannot load 'Unlock_code.bin'

Hello everyone, noob here and i ran into a problem. Trying to root my phone through the X_Factor exploit and I'm down to the step to load fastboot flash unlocktoken_code.bin but it keeps throwing the error: cannot load 'Unlock_code.bin' Please help, I also loaded the unlock file into the same file as the others as it stated, under my android file i made. Thanks
X_Factor exploit is for the AT&T One X, not the international One X, so you're either trying to use it on the wrong device or you're posting in the wrong forum.

How I rooted my Note 3 (t-mobile) using a MAC

Usual disclaimers this will void your warranty and may brick your phone,
This is not an all inclusive guide, just how I was able to install TWRP and root my Note 3 using a Mac Pro with OSX Mavericks. If you can't find the needed files you probably shouldn't be trying this.
I tried several things to Install TWRP - Kies, ADB, Fastboot, Odin for Mac, Odin for Windows running under Virtual Box. None of these worked.
What finally worked was using: The CLI version of Heimdall v1.4.0. From terminal with openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-hltetmo.img in your current directory the command to flash is:
heimdall flash --RECOVERY openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-hltetmo.img
Notes: kies must be uninstalled or you will get: libusbx: error [darwin_claim_interface] USBInterfaceOpen: another process has device opened for exclusive access
ERROR: Claiming interface failed!
RECOVERY must be all CAPS or flash will fail.
Phone must be in Odin mode from powered off VOL_DOWN--HOME--POWER
Once TWRP is installed I was able to download: UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip and install it from TWRP in Recovery mode, This final step leaves you with ROOT on your phone.
Wish I saw this earlier! Borrowed a friend's laptop just root the Note.
Good to know Heimdall 1.4 is working on it. I was hesitant to try it until it was confirmed working.
this worked perfectly ! Thanks !
Trying to Root Note 3 using this method but getting error message. I've uninstalled KIES from computer and I don't see it on the phone. Any help?

When you uninstalled Kies did you use the uninstall program or did you just delete it from the applications folder? I used the uninstall program I got on the KiesMac_3.0_Setup.dmg
What is the exact error you are getting?

Do you have any other program running that might be grabbing the phones usb connection? Parallels, virtualbox, fastboot, abd are a few things I can think of,
Try exiting any of these programs
If you have run adb since computer was rebooted try :
adb kill-server
I hope this helps, I can't think of anything else to try.
Knox
Only have a macbook as well wanting to know if this root method will mess with knox? I have read several articles about some root methods messing with the phone after rooting. can anyone confirm this?

This will trigger the knox flag disabling the knox features. There is now another way to get root that does not change the recovery partition or trip the knox flag, I have not looked into doing it, as I have already tripped my knox flag and as far as I can tell it cannot be undone.

On another thread a user said he saw a note getting returned at tmo and they checked the system status in settings and in download mode. I'm gonna wait to flash anything until there is a way to get 100% back to stock.

Yes, I would like more help as well!!!
Worked for me too!
Worked for me too after UNINSTALLING Kies.
I deleted kies first and it returned "libusbx: error [darwin_claim_interface] USBInterfaceOpen: another process has device opened for exclusive access"
Then I downloaded kies again. When it starts it offers you to uninstall.
After uninstalling everything started working.
It is qon macbook pro.
Thank you!

Does it matter if the Note 3 had the latest Lollipop based download from Samsung on it?

So picked up the phone this week and it I took the Ota by mistake. I have osx and mac only. I've tried mutiple versions of heindall only to get a similar error. I've tried multiple things found online and some xda. I simply cannot download the pit. Anyone have the pit for lollipop and any ideas on how to properly get heindall (latest mac version to play nicely)

[Q] Looking for Stock ROM/how to update to 4.x?

Hi there,
unfortunately I messed up my GIO while trying to upgrade it to Android 4
I can no longer start it or get it into recover mode.
I can however get it into download mode. Now I need a new ROM. Wherever I find a link to a stock ROM ... 404. I think it´s because no one needs the old ROM anymore, but me, now.
Could anyone please provide me with an old stock ROM (country:NL) ?
Or tell me how I could easily upgrade to Android 4.x on a Mac ? I think I have to use the heimdall suite for this, right ?
Thanks for any hints and help
Hmmmmmmm.
Ok, what do I have so far:
Heimdall 1.4 for my Mac.
Can`t get a PIT file :
heimdall download-pit --output pit --verbose
libusbx: error [get_endpoints] error getting pipe information for pipe 1: unknown error
libusbx: error [darwin_set_interface_altsetting] could not build endpoint table
ERROR: Setting up interface failed!
Kies has been removed, machine rebooted, kextstat | grep -v apple is empty ...
Where do I get the files I need in order to use heimdall for flashing my GIO ??
Until now I just found S5660XXKTT_S5660XENLT2_XEN.zip. Think it can be used in recovery mode only, but cannot activate that mode anymore.
Any help, please ....
