Root de la Vega thread closed? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Hi guys, any idea why DG closed the Root Vega thread and all the links died? I found the download from Electron73's thread. But is it still working or we have to use King root or sth to get rooted?

wow guys, Kingo root is very cool. I did it for my N900T. Wonderful. Thanks Dev

Huh I just got my Note 3 and was about to root it. What's the story with de la Vega, is that not the optimal way to root anymore?

Apparently flashing one file via Odin was to complicated for people around here, they wanted a program that will hold their hands every step and tell them it'll be alright. Root de la Vega still works great, I've done it on three Note 3's, never had an issue.
Ehh, guess I'm just a grumpy old man, 4 years ago you needed to know what you were doing to root a phone, now there's these newfangled one-click roots these kids are doing nowadays and people go doing stupid stuff to their phones without knowing what the hell they're doing, then screw up and come running here for help. 90% of the problems you see are things that could easily be avoided if they had only read the op.

I hear ya, but as Android continues growing more mainstream, rooting and ROMs isn't just for geeks (should it be?). Even CyanogenMod is now addressing its "#1 problem" by developing a Windows & Mac GUI root & installer (but no linux, yet)
I've run Linux in some or another (NetBSD, FreeBSD, RedHat, Fedora) as my primary desktop for almost 2 decades, but lately even here it's gotten noobified with Uboontoo elbowing in. I was able to root my Galaxy S1 and Kindle Fire without even booting Windows, but my S3 and Note3 needed ODIN in Windoze because Heimdall (for linux) isn't maintained as much anymore, sadly.
It's just the direction things are going.
Now, ..... YOU KIDS TURN THAT MUSIC DOWN!

What does it mean that RDLV closed?
Is that mean that it cannot be used anymore or the links are already dead? i just root my Note 3 last November 13, 2013 using the RDLV method and it work perfect for me. I just want to know what does it mean that it closed?

My best guess is the one click guys bought him out

Once you have rooted, you don't need to do it again.
He closed the thread because his method was too complicated for people who don't want to bother to read before making that type of change. He had actually come up with a more generic version of the same, but was getting bombarded with people asking how rather than reading how.
Once the one click methods became available, there was no point in continuing to support the other method as they did the same thing. Again, something you normally only do once.
The issue with the IMEI makes sense to me, and unfortunate that they did that, but I don't think it was for an nefarious purpose. The Vroot method was more of a concern to me since the Interface and output was in Chinese and I would prefer to see what it is saying rather than make assumptions.
Right now, I would if ask tell someone to use the Kingo Root method if they needed to root now. I saved the De La Vega root files for both T-Mobile and Verzion when I first saw them in case that I was going to do it at work, but ended up using them while at home.
No big deal in either case.

Thanks for the response. But the RDLV Method doesn't have a malware right? I don't mind reading before performing this kind of things but if you don't mind, if you'll be asked which method do you prefer? The RDLV or the one click root sir?

I ended up going with the one click root because it was extremely easy and literally only took me 30 seconds. Also I planned on getting a custom recovery and rom in the future so the knox count would had gone up anyway.

None of the processes have malware. Malware is where something is put onto your computer or device which continues to do things.
These are simply rooting your device.
The issue was in doing the rooting process, Kingo Root appeared to be collecting the IMEI number from the phone. After it was rooted, there was nothing on your phone other than the files necessary for root (busybox, SuperSU) ... no malware.

[Q] Just got my G2...

and I'm new to this android stuff, completely. So I was wondering what kinda mods can I do to this phone and what should I do to it.
You should root it and apply a bunch of roms in the development section to see which one you like. Almost all of the roms have none of the bloatware that your provider demands your phone have on it, and some of them have custom looks to fit your aesthetic needs. More importantly, most of the roms will be easier on the battery of your phone, so you don't have to plug it in every 4 hours.
A good question is are you use to the process of modifying your phone?

nope. I've never modified a phone before. Which is why I'm so interested in doing so now since I have a good phone lol. How do I "root" my phone n all that..
You're right. You do have a kick ass phone and you should take full control of it and do what you like to it, since you bought it.
The method I used to root my phone is an older method, which is posted at the top of this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=837315
Watch it SEVERAL times before trying. People say their root didn't complete, but let me tell you, the battery pull is oh so necessary.
After that, go into the development section to start flashing roms. Each rom comes with instructions to flash, but they're basically all the same.
My suggestion would be to wait until you have familiarized yourself with this forum and Read until you understand what you are doing and why you are doing it. HERES A GOOD PLACE TO START. Its really easy to mess up your "good" phone doing stuff to it that you don't fully understand.
While the root method suggested above by enserio has worked and I my self used Visionary to root (not with this video though), it has caused so many bricked bootloops I can even guess a number, by far the most risky way to root. It is the least technical way, but with the most dangers. Hope you can afford to buy a new phone because your taking a big gamble rooting this way.
The method I recommend and anyone who has been in this forum long enough to know better would be HERE XDA WIKI, it uses Rage to temp root then Gfree to permroot. This is the safest way to root your phone, even if you mess up more than likely your phone will survive. This requires some technical knowledge but you can gain this by reading and searching and looking for tutorial videos on how to use ADB. Plus the skills learned would be indispensable.

if you screw up, it will.
also, rooting and installing custom roms does not at all mean better battery life.
it varies greatly depending upon what you use the phone for and how often you use it.
I, in fact, have LOST a lot of battery life since rooting, because I have been using it more than I would if I hadn't rooted/installed custom roms.
my suggestion:
play with the phone as it came from the factory, read around here and see if there is any functionality you could gain from modding/rooting/custom roms, and go from there.

Most of the bricks came from the Visionary method; as stated above, the best/safest means to root is in the wiki, that's the method the guys/gals who found the exploit created.

That's not to say that there aren't other ways to brick your phone. Someone messing around in things they don't understand can easily turn your G2 into a paperweight. Its always just a safe rule to research first
Grats on the phone.
I lurked on here and read for a few weeks to make sure I had a full understanding before attempting anything.
Since doing lots based off of the dev forums I've been extremely happy. Just be careful and do your due diligence and you should be fine as long as your halfway technically inclined.

Is there a simple root only that doesnt change ANYTHING else?

Is there a simple Root for the AT&T S3 that ONLY roots the phone, changes not a damn thing, will not lose apps installed already, not lose ANY function at all, and I mean nothing what so ever? Too many things I see says, Root works fine, but you might lose this or that even if its an obscure function...I want to leave at least for now my phone fully stock but rooted with a 99.9% chance of nothing going wrong or changed , like a 1 click.... Heh am I asking for too much?
What you are looking for is out there, however its not exactly 1 click. Also, there is always a risk when rooting your phone so keep that in mind. I would suggest reading as much as you can before jumping into anything. There are a lot of very helpful threads here, you just have to invest the time. Trust me, its better to feel confident when working on our phones, rather than brick a $600 phone! Good luck to you!

You can easily root without deleting anything. mrRobinson put together a nice guide that will grant root access without tripping your flash counter. However, even if you do trip the counter, there is now a way to reset it.

Ok thx, I was half joking with the 1 click, but would be nice , heh...
For a short bit I had a loaner Captivate so I put 2-3 different ROMs on there (Serenity was my fav) and messed with it a bit, but I had little fear as if I killed it , it was not a big deal, but this is the only Android experience I have, was rocking a iphone 3gs before the S3...
So do you think the mrrobinson method is the best/easiest or get the toolkit and use that for what Im trying to do right now? Im happy with how it is and Im sure I will mess with ROMs once the newness wears off, but for now just want to root to put Titanium on there and maybe get Google Wallet working as well.

Odin- / heimdall-free root
I just wanted to share that Noxious Ninja's Verizon Odin-Less method worked perfectly well on my AT&T phone. I have a Mac and Heimdall doesn't yet work on the SGS3, and I was having trouble getting my hands on a PC. This method required no flashing of any kind (although the first thing I did after getting root was flash CWM recovery and CyanogenMod.) Just needed to input the various shell commands by hand because obviously the .bat file didn't run on OS X.
Here is the thread:

[Q] Root imediately or wait?

Can anyone give me their opinions rooting right away vs waiting? I'm coming from a 2 generation ago HTC with root and unlocked bootloader, s-off. I'd hate to delay rooting but I'm wondering how things have gone lately in the Samsung world.
-If I wait, will there likely be another method of rooting that would somehow be better than Chainfire's current method? (Won't trip knox or void warranty or something along those lines)?
-Would I be better off taking any OTA's that are available upon getting the phone before rooting or could those OTA's prevent root if I take them?
Any other reason why someone might delay rooting?
I personally probably will root it if a method is available (haven't verified yet.)
Primary reason being is to make transferring from my previous phone a lot less painless with titanium backup.
Or maybe I won't, because it won't be long before I'd want to flash a custom debloated rom.
Decisions decisions...
the only reason to wait is you want to maintain your warranty. If you pretty good with figuring out issues, it may not be an issue.
Me, 99% I'm not waiting. If I have time, it''ll be one of the first things I do. If not, I'll do it following day.
I enjoy Samsung devices but they usually leave me no choice but to root to remove some of the bloat that I don't really want. So for me it will happen once a cf auto root occurs!
There is no root for sprint yet. Big freaking bummer.
I wouldn't worry about that at all. Chainfire has already released CF Root for like seven different models of the Note 4 - Exynos and Snapdragon models. I would give it a day or a few after official release of our Note 4 until we have root.
And anyways back to the OP - I will be rooting as soon as I get my phone and charge it to full haha. I'm going to need to erase like a million apk's from /system to get rid of plenty of the carrier and Samsung bloat.

Bah to root, im going to be busy working on recovery, to me thats far more important
as much as im gonna hate moving to a new device not having root i think i am going to hold off on root till a method that does not trip knox is introduced. Or a way to use the samsung dongle with knox tripped is introduced. I don't care about warranty but the limit to use accessories is a game stopper for me. I mean with knox flag stop the VR glasses from working. to many unknowns right now.

It that really true. If the knox is trigger using accessories such as the VR or Galaxy Gear watches won't work? What the heck? I thought knox was introduced by corporate people to have a more secure phone. Although the rooted use is a small portion of people, just seen short sighted to me.

Yep, works fine. TB is restoring my apps as I type this. Just choose "Normal" for SuperSU to update the binary. Don't forget to install the FixSD app to allow the correct writing permissions that they talk about in the T-Mobile forum.

[Q] Should I worry about rooting at this point?

I've had people, both in real life and on web forums, tell me that rooting is risky/riskier at this point in time. Is this true? I'm just considerably more nervous as the phone isn't even a week old yet. However, I feel like I'm just being scared for no reason. I had huge butterflies when I rooted my s3 for the first time (first time rooting). It was so simple and without any scares. After that, I played with ROMs, started rooting friends' old phones when they got new ones. I plan on attempting to dual boot my s3 with other things now for fun. So, I'm aware that there's always a risk, but I just don't want to hold off rooting for no reason. Is it a breeze? Is my anxiety truly warranted?
Also, I keep reading "Chinese variants" what does that mean? Are they talking about the phone nationality or the chip? I feel like it's a dumb question, but this is confusing me. It adds to my nervousness because I'm thinking, what if it means only Chinese phones and I screw up my American phone. I know it's probably silly, but...
Anyway, thanks for any help.

Maybe I should make another post, but I'm on linux/ubuntu and I've seen mention of attempting to use Odin in VM, but I worry that if it does work that such a "bridge" might cause potential interruptions. Any further advice?

Root in the Future

As many of you know the Nokia 8.1 is probably not going to get a method for a unlocked bootloader since H.M.D global shut down the exploit/way to aquire it.
I was wondering if there would be any reason that my beloved 8.1 couldn't be rooted by apps like Kingroot when they get the ability to root android PIE.
I didn't realize upon buying the phone that Nokia was so against rooting and im kinda bummed out that as of yet the phone isn't rootable yet. Might even trade it for a Pocophone and take the lack of NFC for granted
Do have mine unlocked and rooted. But the root is a messy task which will most likely take away OTA updates because any tampering is an end to the incremental OTA. Then flashing stock is a tough task too, because the awesome people at FIH Mobile forgot to disable fuse when bl is unlocked. Also, the process is kinda complicated and still under testing Given the complication, I'm sure it won't be freely available because it starts off by using paid tools to trigger debug mode.
I really didn't know that there's almost no way to root this phone when I bought it 2 months ago, but luckily the only reason I've rooted my previous phone (Mi A1) was because of Gcam which is supported out of the box on this one. So it's fine for me, but I do see that no rooting method could be an issue for some people.

I have already replaced the phone because of lack of root / development for this phone. Hated the stock ROM because lots of things didnt work with it (samsung gear watch, some wireless APs, car navigation, etc etc) and without the development this would never be solved.
Also I have expected better camera for the price of the phone.
WIll never buy any HMD device ever again.

I'm sure when root is possible in future ( some geek will find a way, its a phone and not a high end secure government secret thing lol ) more pple will come see this thread.

Do have mine unlocked and rooted. But the root is a messy task which will most likely take away OTA updates because any tampering is an end to the incremental OTA. Then flashing stock is a tough task too, because the awesome people at FIH Mobile forgot to disable fuse when bl is unlocked. Also, the process is kinda complicated and still under testing Given the complication, I'm sure it won't be freely available because it starts off by using paid tools to trigger debug mode.
