Hi, I recently got a galaxy s3 (canadian version) 2 weeks ago from Mobilicity and just recently rooted following this method : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771687. Before doing the rooting I was on the JB 4.1.1 update they released recently. Also used this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34661189&postcount=1 to unlock the phone
I would check daily but today I just noticed my device's status was Modified and I am unable to check for updates. I'm not sure what caused the modified status. I checked in download mode and my count is still 0/No. I also checked Triangle Away and it was the same. My device was normal when I first installed and used the root, I can only remember I just updated a few apps yesterday. I tried flashing with odin the rooted system image and it's the same.
I would like to be able to use the stock rom with root and updates, and set my device to normal status (I'd rather not update through Odin every time there is an update, and I am very satisfied with the stock rom). I've already backed up my data using Titaniumbackup, all my contact info and music (the stuff I only care about). Help appreciated.
EDIT: I also have installed Openrecovery script using goomanager, could that be the issue?
Use TriangleAway from the Play Store to get rid of the modified status

The counter is 0, should I still try to reset it?
Edit: just used TriangleAway, device status still modified, I can access the software update now though, but it gets stuck while checking

You will not be able update via your carrier OAT if you rooted your device. The only thing you can do is to unroot the device, do the update, and re-root the device again. Visit www.galaxys3root.com on how to root and re-root.

If that is all you wanted just flashing the root66 rom from mrRobinson's threat in you original post could have accomplished it.
This would not trip the flash counter if it was still 0, what did it was installing a custom recovery like open recovery.
Follow this steps to get to a 4.1.1 "unmodified" or normal stock system with only root injected to it. You will be able to check and receive OTA updates, but if you ever update your rom OTA you will loose root.
1-download root66 jellybean rom for mobilicity from mrRobinson's thread, there are instructions there how to flash it with desktop Odin. (this will keep everything in your rom and will give you the stock recovery back, so the counter does not trip again)
2-download, install and run triangle away from chainfire's thread this will reset the counter to 0. Search for it.
Now your counter is 0 again, nothing is tripping it, room is rooted but it will still say "modified" and OTA updates may still not work, to fix it you need a clean start. Do a system factory reset, start over fresh and life will be beautiful.

Hey guys,
Just bought this unlocked Note 2 (SGH-I317M) from someone. I had a previous note 2 that died.
I just rooted the phone to install a custum ROM. Right now I'm at the step where I just rooted it using
CF-Auto-Root-t0ltecan-t0ltevl-sghi317m.tar.md5 on odin 3.09.
I think the root went fine cause the Odin boxed said "pass".
When the phone reboots thought SuperSU is always force closing, so I cannot confirm the root process by going into Titanium Backup since SuperSu is closed.
If I install a custom rom, will that problem disappear?
How can I be sure that the phone has rooted properly?
Since I just bought it, I wish I would not brick it the first night!
Thanks for your time and knowledge!
What recovery do you have installed?
And if you flash a custom Rom that's already rooted then you'll be good to go with root. :thumbup:
Did you try updating the super SU app, to the latest version from the play store??

I have rooted (or so i thought) mt note 2 n7105 on 4.4.2 with CF Autoroot. But root checker says its not rooted, the knox counter went to 1, but supersu doesnt work, it says that it has stopped everytime i try to open it and i have gotten the latest apk for it from the app store and the site to see if one would work, no such luck. Also i flashed CWM with Odin(or so i thought) but when i boot into recovery mode i still get the stock recovery. Whats wrong here?
I was wondering if there is any safe recommendations to download and install an update to my phone which is the Samsung note 4 from verizon. I've heard of a app called Flash fire
(website: http://www.howtogeek.com/192402/why-androids-ota-updates-remove-root-and-how-to-keep-it/amp/ )
and it says that it flashes the update but keeps the root intact but I'm not sure about it. I just want to make sure this is a safe option. I'm running Android version 5.1.1 (rooted) and am trying to update to 6.0.1.
Sorry I'm still a noob with rooting the note 4. But yes it works fine with the note 4
So I rooted my t-830 (wifi) and my netflix was all buggy then I wasn't using any useful root features decided to unroot (flash stock via odin) there was no TWRP on it. But even now that it's unrooted, stock ARK4 says "netflix isn't compatible".
