[Q] Rooting on new Note 3's? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Not sure what firmware is on shipping Note 3's right now. But if i buy a new one from a T-mobile store in the next week what firmware will be on it? Can that out of the box firmware package be fully rooted and run AOSP ROM's?
Speaking of that, It appears if different levels of root are a thing right now, rooted stock that maintains KNOX and full blown rooted with TWRP that sets a KNOX 0X1. Is this correct? are both of these options on new Note 3's right now?
I know the search is a powerful tool, and I can find various guides for rooting different firmwares. But i have no idea what firmware is currently on new phones.
Thanks for the help.

I just got a note 3 couple days ago. The firmware is 4.4.2. You can root and flash a aosp. But you're gonna trip the Knox to 0x1. I just said f it and did it lol. I was tired of twiz and all the bloated tmo apps.

yes, but for this you need to flash a custom recovery, your knox flag will become 0x1 and you will lose your warranty
Thanks

custom roms
Yea you can. You could have been using one I'm I been on 4.3 for months now. The official is really for the devs which is who I wait for to make the roms better then the stock upgrades. Have a look around at some you will be mad when you do because stock sucks after using modded roms. You can't custom color stock roms and that's my thing I love themes when it comes to customization.

Regarding Knox, isnt there a way to reset the counter back to original value (think its "0"). Was it triangle away or something. Cant remember correctly.
Whats your view??

Triangle away used to reset the custom binary count and status. KNOX counter is something different. Till now, it can't be reset!

P605 - Where do you guys get your custom ROMs?

When we go to development section there's just like 2 threads for custom ROMs for this device. HAL9000 and the 4.3 Stock KNOX free.
And HAL9000 thread is locked.
There are few more options for P600 and P601. So where do you guys get ROMs to try? I just rooted mine recently for added multiwindow apps and 4 window screen. I want to try something different from stock like CM, Jedi, Tweaked, LiquidSmooth, etc (which are all present in snapdragon Note 3) but there are very few to none.
I'm going to search android tablet forums now

Sorry for off topic, but how did you root your P605? I just got my unit last week.
When you rooted yours, does it trigger knox counter? also would you know if All Share Cast still works when you root?
thanks in advance!

I PMed you the link I followed. And yes you will trigger Knox. I dont think you will lose any apps just from rooting the device.

Should I update?

I am already rooted via towel root. Is this going to update to NF1? And will I loose root?

You can upgrade to NF1 official firmware no problem, it will not change the knox status.
But unfortunately you will loose root and Towelroot is not yet compatible with rooting
the NF1 official firmware.
Good luck!
Thanks that's what I was afraid of. I think I'll just keep postponing it until I hear of a root method for NF1. Thanks again. God Bless

Don't do the OTA. You can retain root if you flash nf1 via Mobile Odin Pro app.

[Q] Note 3 neo n7505 knox

Hello,
I have a question.
I have my note 3 for a couple of days. It is my first android device. (always used apple)
I Read something about a knox code. That will trip when I root my device.
Is that true, or is there a workaround?
Also, I read somewhere that KitKat was released for the note 3 neo (sm-n7505)
But no ota..
If I install the official rom of KitKat, will that also trip my knox?
I hope someone can help me with this
If you download the official rom from samsung then it will not trip knox

Nope, and everyone are actually asking about that 3 times a day. I suppose you can guess how bored everyone are with this question?
The update may come any next day.

We were promised on that by Samsung, and the KK firmware is under testing now, which is confirmed by a famous insider. So yes, we're pretty safe to say it will come 'soon'.

Att note 2 in india

Guys I have the ATT note 2 unlocked and I'm staying in india and I was wondering if anyone has captured the original OTA for the note 2 kitkat and can upload it. Coz sammobile isnt doing it, and I really dont care about the knox counter triggering on rooting, but the ota doesnt seed here and im stuck with the stupid 4.1.2 update from sammobile.
Continuously switching between stock modded roms just to notice their glitches is also not panning out as I am a doctor and dont get much time now.
Tried dn3 and ezkat they are good, but I just want pure stock rooted so I can avoid any glitches whatsoever.
And I have seen the threads for the deodexed and odexed root uploads of the firmware but they are having issues so im not sure if I want to put them.
Thanks in advance for ure replies and sorry to take ure time with my troubles.
