I was watching a video on benefits of root on the note 2 and the reviewer discussed how Samsung will know through some methods if you root your phone i wanted to know if this is true? he then said how they will refuse to abide by warranty if the device is rooted. I wanted to know if this is true and are their ways around it as i always root my devices lol.
Root, flash custom rom, have fun.
Phone issue, flash back stock rom, run chain fires root away app, and back to samsung

There's tons of threads how to root your phone, its not hard to find.... and bumping your thread every 2 hours isn't gonna get anyone to give u a handout when you could simply use your Google Fu and find your answer rather quick. Root evo 4g 2.3.5 ...oh wow look the answer but let me make a thread wait 2 hours and bump it instead of taking 2 mins to use Google

There is no temp root you just need to root :-| you have to use htcdev to unlock the bootloader and then fastboot flash a recovery and then flash superuser and its binary files and if you Googled or even looked around in general and q&a you would know how to do this because its been asked and answered at least 2 dozen times since the OTA was pushed

Easier to ask for forgiveness than it is for permission ;-) Besides, as long as the sprint worker doesn't know how to check your root, you're fine. Find someone stupid.
I've never used an s-on tool to remove my root but i'm sure you could manage getting your phone back to normal. if you ever need to use your warranty. And your Dad will never have to know.

TacoRoot can temp root your device, but you can't really use your device while it's rooted (it makes it unstable). But feel free to try it, if you'd like.

Go to supersu options and unroot

Interested to know whether this simple process is sufficient. I imagine you also need to completely shut down GFE if re-rooting at any time - what's the easiest way to do that? Ideally someone can develop a GFEOff+Root toggle!

Or ... Just why would I care what the company wants .. If its my phone . If the company wants me to have an unrooted phone they can issue me one . If the phone belongs to the company i can understand them not wanting it modded in any way though .
Rooted or jail broken devices are a security risk an hence not allowed at many companies for BYOD..
Just removing su didn't help
Sent from my SGH-I317M using Tapatalk 2
same byod policy at my company too. no jailbroken iphones/ipads and no rooted and non-stock rom android phones/tablets.
but....why the hell would i ever want to make my personal device take work emails? that's why they gave me a blackberry.
Try removing su then factory reset see if that helps
lol
here ya go.. a root/unroot button.

To be a bit more clear.. There indeed can be many kinds of routes, some can reset your counter, and I believe some don't. Counter is a number that changes if you root your device so T-Mobile knows you messed with it. If your counter gets reset, they can't tell if you rooted or not.
I'm not on the T-Mobile network, so I didn't really care which. Head over to the developer section of this device category and read the thread by 'Simplelife' on how to root! Pick a method best for you. I personally used option 2.

Just picked up 2 of these T-Mo Note 2's last weekend. I just used the Galaxy Note2 ToolKit v3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957720 Just follow the on screen instructions, and make sure you read all the options. It wasn't as easy as unlocking and rooting my Nexus... but all I had to do is click one more option lol!
Thanks everyone for input. I used toolkit v3 and it worked flawlessly. Got root, recovery, and jedi x11. Friggin awesome.

You can install very useful apps that require root access for example like titanium backup, better battery stats, rom manager, root explorer.....
And also you can install roms and kernels.

your phone your choice
Benefits of rooting? Basically none for me. Yeah sure you can play with stuff. Install custom roms... void your warranty etc
I always rooted and installed custom roms but decided to go stock and only bother updating roms when updates are officially released and havent missed root one little bit.
It greatly depends on what your trying to achieve. If getting stuff done with no disruption, stability and an intact warranty are important to you then stay stock. If you enjoying tinkering, flashing "new" roms etc then go for it!
I was burned though, i got the complete piece of crap that is the htc one x last year. Voided my warranty with htc dev unlock THEN found out the phone had many issues due to awful build and quality control. I then vowed to never buy htc again. Bought an s3 then an lte note 2 and wont be looking back

You can make the phone you just paid £100's for, yours. i.e, getting rid of bloatware, unused apps that came on the phone.
I'm new to rooting/flashing roms, kernels etc but i can tell you... Do your research before thinking you're god. If you're unsure how to do it, research it.
When you 'think' you know how to do it, read more. Only do things when you are 100% sure you can.
I've fully customized my Galaxy s3 and never looked back. My phone is MINE

Glad that you realize theres nothing like a good root.
I wouldn't sweat rooting until you find an app that you want that requires root.
There are plenty though. My root apps:
Afwall+ - firewall
catlog - browse logcat (for debugging apps)
cerberus - security program
LBE security master - block apps from using various permissions
multi window manager - use any app in multiwindow
quickboot - nice boot program, makes it easy to boot into recovery mode.
titanium backup - backup/restore your phone or programs
xposed installer/settings - change dpi for individual programs
directory bind - Put game data on external SD card so they don't fill your phone up.
And of course, install roms and junk.
Changing/randomly adding things is more customizable if you have root - cool bootup movie, lightsaber sound when you pull out the stylus, etc etc.

Damn man!! Look harder and you will find it. Hell Google search will give you several results. If you can't do either of those just Google kingo root it does work for 4.3. Next time look before posting. There must be a dozen stupid post just like this already in general and q&a.

Use a program (for Windows) called Kingoroot.
First turn USB debugging on in developer settings, then go to your homescreen.
Start the mrogram, wait until it says that your device is connected and press then the root button.
You should be rooted + the KNOX counter stays 0.
