i searched the whole xda but couldnt find anyone with the new tmobile update for the t999l T999LUVUBNC1. Im rooted and removed knox. currently on T999LUVUBMK4 was wondering how would i install this new update and if it will brick my phone or not. thanks in advance
Sorry, I forgot to add it to my firmware thread. I will do that. In the meantime, you'll probably have to download from http://samsung-updates.com or http://sammobile.com/firmwares
Flash via Odin.
Won't brick, but will need to re-root and remove knox.

will it remove twrp from my phone?
Yes, you will be completely stock. Keep in mind that with any 4.3 updates you cannot flash older firmware anymore. Roms are ok, just not previous firmware. You probably already know that since you're on MK4. But FYI anyway.
You can flash using Mobile Odin, but it will not update your bootloader and other underlying partitions. They would remain MK4. You could tell it to not flash recovery and twrp would be preserved.

Root?
So is there a new way to root T999LUVUBNC1? One that will NOT trip the flash counter and possibly the Knox counter? I've been looking but could not find anything.

yeah i just odin the latest twrp recovery and then download the flashable rootzip somewhere on here and you should be root could also flash the knox removal too if you wanted.
Flashing the recovery will trip the warranty bit though, just fyi.

I don't think cf autoroot will trip knox, but don't take my word for it as it not positive. You'll have to check the cf autoroot thread in Original Development to see if there is one made for your T999L firmware. The T999 one will not work for you.

I did find that there is one.made for the t999l, but not sure about tripping Knox. In the development thread it says it will, but I'm not sure if he means after flashing a custom recovery or not. I would just do it, but I still have 6 months of warranty left.

Only info anywhere I've found just says it provides stability improvements or something to that effect. They likely either just patched up some bugs they found, and/or are trying to get ready for 4.4 OTA's.

I don't know if it will still work on the latest builds, but you could also look into MotoChopper. Some used it to root in the past, and I know it does not write over recovery, so it may not trip the warranty bit. I have no idea if it would trip, or even if it'd work anymore, but is another option worth looking at.
Check ATT forums too. Their root methods usually work for us too.

I have heavily modified the MotoChopper exploit by XDA member drjbliss to handle the new changes to file permissions in JellyBean 4.3+. Because this tool is based on MotoChopper it will likely support the same device list that MotoChopper supports however i have only tested it on the T-mobile T999 & T999L and the i337 .
If you would like to test it on other devices it should be fairly safe to try as it should either work or fail, of course testing anything like this is always at your own risk and i am not liable for any damage to your device, self esteem and so on. If you do test it on your device, please report your results here so that I can try to fine tune it if need be.
For this current version you will have to have TWRP installed on your device.
if it works for you don't forget to hit the thanks button! enjoy.
all instructions on how to use are inside the tool. this is for windows users only.

So sorry I need to edit the main post, I have been working on so many different projects, we did not test it on the M919 it was actually tested on the i337. If you are talking about the flash counter though this will not trip the flash counter, however flashing twrp will trip the binary status, and possibly the Knox counter, I need someone to test it, but I can't tell you how to correct it if it does trip it.
i guess what i should say is that while i have not had a confirmed success of fail on the m919 i have provided the tool to a few who have not been kind enough to report its status

No it will not erase the data on your phone.
The step by step instructions are inside the tool, if you need instructions on how to flash TWRP to your device via Odin you can find them in the forums. I would include them but it is really outside of the scope of the tool, while the tool requires TWRP to work TWRP is not related in any way to the tool, the tool is simply TWRP dependent.
It has worked on the i337 already, whether or not it works on mk2 has yet to be determined, however the tool is designed in such a way it will either work or fail, if it fails it will not harm your device.

KNOX counter is seperate from the Flash Counter? Before when I was on stock 4.1.2 and flashed custom 4.3 and 4.4 roms , I never saw any KNOX notifications or warning...Is this new with the 4.3 OTA?
My first phone had headphone jacks issues too. i reset it with odin and had it replaced with no issues from at&T. Now this one is repeating the same issue. I Odin back to 4.1.2 and took the 4.3 OTA before i call them and they want to remote desktop into my phone like before.
If KNOX only comes with the 4.3 OTA i wont take it if the replacment phone doesnt come with 4.3 preloaded
Anyway of confirm KNOX status on my phone? or is it something at&t doesnt look at
I Rebooted into download mode and it says KNOX Warranty VOID:0
So i guess I am good with this one......?
Never saw the KNOX before in download mode...So it must have came with the 4.3 OTA
If the replacemnt comes preloaded with 4.3 and I root theres no going back for non rooting warranty issues
If it comes with 4.1.2 i should be ok...cause my others came with 4.1.2 and i rooted and installed 4.3 and 4.4 roms , odin'd back to 4.1.2 and never saw knox before.
It's new in the 4.3 OTA MK6. It is separate from the flash counter and CANNOT as of now be reset. They can see it in the same place the flash counter is.
It will show 1 which means warranty void. If you can get one without 4.3 do it
This is what it looks like now:
Triangle away still works but the knox counter stays no matter what!
Edit: If it is still showing 0, then you are good to go
Geeve
thats good news LOL
4.3 preloaed=screwed if i root it
4.1.2 preloaded= no knox, free to root, flash, unroot and reset , send back with any non root related warranty issues.
Glad i didnt root the OTA in the meantime while i wait for my replacment..
Thanks for all info and help Geeve
You got it and no problem
Geeve
So i guess no custom 4.3 or 4.4 rom will install KNOX behind our backs..Just the OTA and any possible updated bootloaders if we dont pay attension and flash one
Baseband/Modem updates should not install knox...correct?
Correct! all the custom 4.3/4.4 roms use a leaked bootloader and most if not all have the knox stuff removed. It is only the MK6 OTA for our phones that is screwing us right now. We can still root and flash, but warranties are void..

Ok guys, new to this phone, just came from an xperia z. I've been doing some reading and i'm a little bit lost.
So far I have my phone on 4.2.2, never been updated, and i have it rooted and running clockworkmod as a recovery.
I have a few questions before I do anything, i've been reading about KNOX and i'm a bit confused. Does KNOX come back when you update to a different rom? When I fired up SuperSU for the first time it asked me if I wanted to disable KNOX features, and it did so successfully. My question is, is there anything to look out for before updating?

If you update via OTA, your bootloader will come with a KNOX counter, which cannot be reset at the moment. If you flash anything when you have that, it will trip the counter and your warranty is voided.
I'd suggest flashing a 4.3 or 4.4 rom if you wanna update it, then flash the MK2 modem to get normal signal.

Ok, I do not care about any warranty, I take care of my electronics. Not trying to be rude, but i wanted to clear that up. I know warranty is out the window at this point.
So I can update to just about any rom, but i would have to flash the MK2 modem right after to fix signal problems?
Sorry for so many questions, but i guess I am a bit late getting into the S4 game.
Yes, that's right. Beware of potential issues though, some people have reported the modem didn't stick when they flashed it. It went fine for me and most people, but I just wanna give you a heads up.
And somehow flashing rom with Odin always causes issues for me. TWRW is the best!

I'm not planning on flashing roms through ODIN, just the modem.
So if i flash this now, its SUPPOSED to stick onto the phone even if i fluctuate through different roms?
Also, if i install a rom that says knox-free i would be able to flash it no problem right?
Yes. You only need to flash the modem once. All the custom roms on here are KNOX free, so no worries there.

Anyway, you might consider installing Mobile Odin from the Play Store. I've flashed a couple roms that caused my baseband to show as unknown and using MO to reflash the MK2 modem was insanely more convenient than using Odin on my PC.
I just recently picked up a T-Mobile unlocked Note 3. It's still stock on 4.3 and I'm trying to find out what is the best way to root without tripping the KNOX counter.

All I could find is
"If you are running MJ4, MJ7, MK1, MK2 or higher you can still root, but you will trip KNOX!"
But it also doesn't say that it won't trip Knox on others. It also doesn't state if there's a way to flash a recovery or rom without tripping Knox.

It shouldn't, but no guarantee obviously. Just root with RDLV and install safestrap. It uses stock kernel and injects itself between the boot loader and the stock ROM.

Perfect. I'm still stock on 4.3. It looks like I'm going to root with Vega, install SS and install a stock rooted 4.4 rom for SS to avoid tripping KNOX.
Thanks again!

Hello,
I was wondering if there was any way to root the new i747mvlufnh2 firmware and if it would trip any counter?
Would towelroot work or cf autoroot?

I just tried Towel root and get a "Phone not supported .. ?
Towel root won't work. Just flash the SuperSU package in recovery. Use the ones from my signature. The latest 2.02 is having problems.

I should just install the Superuser_2.00.apk ?
If you used towelroot to root, yes just install the app. Otherwise you will need to flash one of the zip files.

Can anyone pull a flashable modem from I747MVLUFNH2 ?
I'll try to post them in my 4.4.2 modem thread sometime today. Have to download each full firmware to get them though so it may take a little time.
Unless anyone wants to extract the Non-hlos.bin from the firmware and just upload that for me!

extract the who from the what and bring it where ?:banghead: lol. still such a freakin newb-head.
err on the side of kindness
Starting with the full firmware .tar.md5 file, extract with 7zip and you'll see all the different partitions that are flashed when you flash with Odin.
NON-HLOS.bin is the modem.
Tz.mbn - Trust Zone
Rpm.man - resource and power management
Sbl2&3 - secondary boot loader
Aboot.mbn - application bootloader
Boot.img - kernel
I don't need that to be done now though. I started the downloads earlier so they should be waiting for me when I get back.

I was answering a request for the modem. Is that what you're asking about or are you still asking about root like in your op? Did you try my earlier suggestion? Flash the SuperSU update pkg in recovery.

Yeah still about root, how do I flash the file? Odin? Will it trigger the flash counter?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using XDA Free mobile app
You flash via custom recovery, which you'd have to flash with Odin.
A custom recovery will trip the warrant bit. There's no way to root without doing so.

Ah there used to be I think. Anyway my 1year warranty ended 2 days ago so tripping the counter should not be a problem right?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using XDA Free mobile app
Nope. If its out of warrany it doesn't matter at all. There used to be root66 firmware which didn't trip it, but the latest versions had mixed results. And the 4.4.2 builds aren't out....yet. You can wait to try that if/when they are ready, or you can root via recovery as mentioned earlier.
New root66 will be worked on, but I can't give a solid eta as I'm not the one doing the work. Not promising anything either.
