Hi everyone,
pardon me for my noobiness
I have tried cf autoroot step by step with caution. but my device still stays unrooted.
i have i747 at&t with 4.1.2
in odin i does see everything as good, but no SuperSU app.
root checker goes in infinte loop returns nothing, Tibu says device not rooted.
do i have options?
i want to stick to 4.1.2 TW stock with root access, twrp and triangle away to reset my counter.
as I already used CW 10.2 JB 4.3 and was missing my ugly touchwiz, camera, multiwindow

If the auto root worked (rebooted into recovery and did it's thing) than just download SuperSU from the play store. Update the binary by opening the app and than recheck for root.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
after trying for 5 times, it worked.
i am rooted now.
but have another issue, gave my google account for phone setup. also used mrrobinson debloater.
noticed that none of my apps from playstore are getting installed on my phone.
is it because mrrobinsoon debloater deleted something or its just me , a noob..
pls help.

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.

If you can still get into your custom recovery, try flashing [ROM][ZIP]Stock Rooted Deodexed/Odexed MD4 with SuperSU/Busybox 1.20.2

Most likely the SuperSU app is installed but being blocked by Knox. Go to the app store and search SuperSU. Update it. Then it should appear on the phone. Run it. It will ask if you would like to disable Knox. Answer yes. After that you should have root.
I can't get into recovery mode. When I try it runs chainfire again and nothing happens
Hi,
I have a note 2 N7100 and a few days ago installed a German stock rom downloaded from samfirmware. Then I rooted it (I tried posting a link to the rooting instructions but new users can't post links).
When the phone rebooted after root, I got a message from superSU app to manually re-root. Then I just restarted the phone, and suddenly I had root privileges!
Since then, after each restart I sometimes have root and sometimes not. Mostly not. Sometimes I have to restart 10 times in a row before the root works. If I go to CWM recovery, it warns me that the rom will try to reinstall the stock recovery and asks if it should try to prevent this, I say yes but it doesn't change anything.
I also used to get a lot of knox warnings so I froze everything that had the word "knox" in it using titanium backup.
Is there an explanation for this weird behavior? Can I do something to fix it?
I have the same problem with you when rooting by kingo app. But when I reflash firmware and root by lastest cfautoroot and update supersu in play store everything is stable.

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've been rooting phones for a few years now (my evo and my Note 2.) I had my note 2 rooted for about a year and while having performance issues with Sprint (hate sprint) I flashed back to stock and updated everything, including the firmware. Ugh, I updated the firmware to the new knox firmware. Not knowing I was up a creek, I reflashed my phone with the tools I already had and had already used and triggered knox and cant get a recovery to stick. As far as I can tell the phone is still stock with knox tripped and I cant get any farther. I've spent a few hours reading now and I cant seem to find a way to either reverse knox or root the phone with knox tripped. I tried the cf auto root in the origional development section and couldn't figure it out.
Anybody got any advice, or a link to a thread started post knox so it talks about how to deal with it?

You shouldn't be up a creek. What recovery did you flash? Try the latest Philz for note2. Unchecked auto-reboot in Odin before flashing it, and when it's done pull the battery then put the battery back in and do the power button/home button/volume up to get into recovery...

I've been using the unified android toolkit. It seemed to work flawlessly before knox. Now it just stalls. Odin installs the custom recovery, the phone reboots, and goes into the stock android recovery. So I unchecked the auto reboot option, flashed CWM, and while looking nervously at the do not power down device screen, pulled the battery. It booted into CWM fine, flashed Paranoid Android and gapps fine, and rebooted into the new ROM just fine.
Not really sure why I was having problems, or why the pull the battery step is necessary, but it seems to have worked. I did not flash any SU files. Is that necessary?
I would download 1 of the root checker apps, or just install an app that requires root.
Usually (though I can verify not always. Lol) you have to reboot directly into download mode to finish the install of the custom recovery. If you let your phone reboot, stock recovery will over-write the custom recovery that you're trying to install...

I ran a root checker and it says I do not have root access. But the phone is running paranoid...so what am I missing here? I thought I needed root access to install the recovery and install a ROM. Seems I do not. Should I care about the lack of root access? Because all I really wanted was to replace the ROM, and that seems to have worked.

PA Roms work funny with root access on my device also. Just download and flash the latest SuperSU zip. If you already have it installed wipe the data first.
