You might wanna ask the company who unlocked your phone and see if it locks will they give you the code without paying again

Damnit. What about if I flash a custom tw ROM? I just want to get back to tw with root and use my Bluetooth

They always come pre-rooted and never contain a recovery. So that should work for you.

hey guys, same question but i was wandering if i flash stock rom using twrp, would my booloader be locked?
I am trying to reset my flash counter to 0 so my allshare cast dongle works. btw triangle away didnt work. it goes to 1.
thanks
TriangleAway works fine. Your bootloader will not be locked.

Will the bootloader be unlocked or will get locked again?
Thanks

Bootloader stays unlocked.
The bootloader on the T999 was never locked. Using any program to unlock the bootloader will brick the phone.
Hey this is my first time posting on xda but I've looked at this site many times for help with my phone. This is my first android phone and I'd like to root it. I've seen guides on how to root this phone but when I first got my phone I unlocked the bootloader but I left it unrooted for whatever reason.
My question is since I have an unlocked bootloader will I lose any data when I root my phone? Ultimately my goal will be to upgrade to android 4.3 since verizon is so slow with the updates. Will either rooting it or flashing it to 4.3 make me lose data? Thanks in advance
You will only lose applications and application data. Anything in /sdcard will remain intact unless you manually delete that under twrp or cwm

thanks for the quick response. Is there any way to back all that up without being rooted?
I misinformed you. Rooting in itself will not touch your data or system data. Flashing an already rooted ROM will simply because you have to wipe the system partition

I have a Note 2 i317m from rogers, but I had it unlocked for use on the telus network.
If I root it, will I have to unlock it again ? and will I lose everything on the phone ?
I'm new to rooting, I just don't want to take any chances in losing everything, also, is there a way to back everything up and get it back on the phone after rooting if I choose to root it?
just trying to cover all my bases before I get it rooted.
thanks.
Try to flash a prerooted software google it

Thanks, I'll see what I can find. Only did this once before, and it was years ago. Trying to get back into it.

Hi guys,
New note 3 user and new to t-mobile.
Perhaps an already answered question, but how exactly do I go about unlocking my bootloader? I want to flash cm11 and twrp. Are the tmobile phones already unlocked?
If the answer to the above is no, what are the steps to get it unlocked and a new recovery installed? Point to a link would be great.
Thanks!

If you don't care about the possibility of voiding your warranty due to the KNOX issue
then go ahead and root then flash custom recovery...
Good luck!
And if I do care about it? I understood root De La vega was good to go.

It is....to gain root. However, if you flash twrp(or a custom kernel, or non-stock rom for that matter) , you will change knox warranty to 0x1.
I've seen a thread about a safestrap recovery, but have no idea what roms work with it. You may (or may not) be able to get cm11 to work with it. You'll have to do some research.
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
I don't care about warranty anyhow but my phone has the knox tripped. My question is how to get past the boot sequence when it complains about the kernel.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
It shouldn't get stuck there, can you explain what you did?

Right now I have stock rooted nb4. If I put non stock rom on it stops and wont boot past Samsung screen. So I went back to stock and rooted. This knox bootloader crap has me considering selling and getting a HTC.

That has nothing to do with Knox bootloader.. what ROM were you trying to flash, and did you factory reset?

He's right about not having to do with knox. You either are forgetting to factory reset, not flashing a kernel(or the right one) or flashing the wrong ROM for our device.

Changed recovery to phil's and loaded vision nb4 with the kt4.4 kernel. Everything good now. Thanks.
