[How To] 2 ways to root with/without tripping KNOX - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Mods, Could we sticky this and i'll keep it updated. I was also compiling a list of roms and recoveries to be a one stop shop thing.
First off, HUGE thanks to these guys @designgears & @Chainfire, without them.. This would be an empty post.. Any thanks, or donations please respectfully give to them. I am relaying information found in the various sections of the forums.
There is a safe way, without tripping your KNOX counter.. and another way that DOES trip the counter. A few things first.
I have used the safe root way and I am on Sprint. I also used an app to change my system setting from custom to official. This is important so that Sprint reps wont know you are rooted or modified your system. It is also preferred that you use an after market launcher to hide such apps if you need to go in to the sprint store about anything. Keep in mind, that if you do have software issues, Sprint may ask to update your phone to the latest version and download the OTA. This will break root and keep system status official(I think, I've read that some people's status has shown Custom after the OTA), so all your root apps will stop working. If all else fails, just follow the directions to re root and make your device official again.

The Wanam Xposed from the Google Play store does work with the Galaxy Note 3
After installation of the Xposed Installer (requires root), you have to activate it by going to "Framework" and press " Install/Update" - You have to reboot for settings to take effect.
After your reboot you can go through modules in Xposed Installed app and find Wanam Xposed and download it or you can download it from the link above.
Finally make sure the module is enable and it will ask for root, after scroll down to Security Hacks/ System "Fake system status" - make sure it is checked. You will be prompted to reboot. Please do so.
Verifying system is official
In phone menu go to Settings/General/About Device/Status. Scroll down to the bottom and it should say "Official". Without using this method above the system will say "Custom".

Some last bits of important information. For the safe root method, you can still trigger knox counters if you do the following:
-Installing custom recoveries and roms
-Not following instructions
-Improperly flashing the stock rom

Anyone else having trouble on sprint finding the reactivation lock settings? I cannot find it under security. I see it visible on several youtube videos, but not on my Sprint note 3.

[Q] How does MaaS360 detect root device?

My company has instituted use of MaaS360 as a MDM for BYOD android phones. The IT folks are preventing rooted and jailbroken phones from accessing corporate email from exchange.
On my Galaxy S4 I have tried several things to work around, including OTA Rootkeeper, Hide my root app, and SuperSU's temporary unroot. However MaaS360 manages to find out that the phone is still rooted. I tried the solution posted for Mobileiron on this site (freezing the MDM using TiBU immediately after rooting) but that does not work either.
My IT department is fine with "temporary" unroot but they do not think that it is possible to do so in MaaS360 while still ensuring that the device is not permanently rooted. I am wondering if someone knows how MaaS360 figures out that a device is rooted and whether there is a way for it to nor report when the device is temporarily unrooted using one of the methods discussed above.
Have you found a solution to this problem? I was wondering the same thing.

Nope... the only solution is to do a permanent unroot after setting up the ROM/device to your liking and before adding the MaaS360-enabled account.
Sounds like a reasonable solution to me. Thank you.

Yes, I find it alright. Make sure you reboot twice after doing a perm unroot (and before adding your MaaS360 enabled account). Sometimes it takes a additional reboot before the phone actually removed all su-related binaries.

Could you please confirm that it's okay to have a custom ROM flashed while using MDM so long as the device is no longer rooted?
I'd like to do this without ever getting flagged in the first place. My plan is to uninstall maas360, root the device, flash my custom rom, perm unroot the device, reboot twice and reinstall maas360. Will this be okay?
Thanks

I believe that answer depends on how your organization has set security policies on the MDM. For me, I have been using custom ROM (GoldenEYE) for several months now, and not been flagged so long as I add the exchange account after doing a full unroot and rebooting twice. You may want to check with your IT if they are OK with custom ROMs.. Most IT would be OK if you unroot I guess.
The steps you outlines are fine - I pretty much use the same sequence everytime I update to a newer version of the ROM. So far, no problems since 6+ months!

[Q] Upgrade From MDK - Don't Care About bootloader

I've been trying hard to find the answer and I just can't - I searched these threads for a while.
I currently have Galaxy S4 with MDK which is rooted and has the unlocked bootloader.
I have SDM and SEAndroid frozen on Titanium Backup.
I want to un-freeze those and upgrade to the newest version but still keep my root and all of my root apps. I don't care about the unlocked bootloader - all the root apps I use don't have anything to do with using the bootloader (well I have twrp installed but don't use it).
Can I use OTA Rootkeeper, unfreeze SDM and SEAndroid and take the OTA update? Will I still have root access (again remember, I don't need to have unlocked bootloader)?
I ask because I'm very happy with everything on my phone the way it is - I like where my apps are, I like everything. I don't want to bother flashing roms - I just have no interest. I want to do the update and have everything the way it was and all my folders in their place (less the unlocked bootloader) and still have root for my programs like Titanium Backup and Greenify. super su - etc.
Please - any help would be appreciated.
Afaik, taking the update will ineed cost you your current root. However, I am on stock 4.3 and root using vroot and then used a script to uninstall the foreighn superuser app and add supersu. I have experienced no ill effects as of yet, though some would say that they aren't comfortable using this root method. There is no evidence to support it being entirely safe nor malicious in intent. It does provide root and you can keep all your apps data. Though...if you take the update, I would strongly suggest a factory reset to decrease potential problems...just my 2 cents buddy

The bootloader is technically only bypassed through a Loki exploit, not unlocked.

I have an MDK so I don't need it. But please do someone a favor, don't kill that MDK S4. Either just flash a rooted 4.3 that was designed for your MDK device, or sell it to someone so they have the opportunity to play with it. There are a ton of people on this forum stuck on the newer versions that would kill to get what you have.

I can walk you through the steps of flashing a ROM buddy, just PM me. I'll look around for a good 4.3 but it would be preferable for you to find a ROM that suits your needs. There are definitely a couple 4.3 options available, check 'em out and let me know if you want to proceed.

For the moment, yes. Attempting to return to a previous stock ROM, even via ODIN, will fail - I tried this myself last night. ODIN hangs on trying to install the last part of the ROM (the bootloader, if I remember right). If you do try to use ODIN to restore a stock ROM, you will need to run a repair install of the 4.3 ROM (you'll lose all data on the phone). Fun stuff.
So in short, we're locked & unrooted if we update using the official update via Verizon's update software.

Aren't both the S4 and N3 4.3 builds rooted? Maybe you're thinking bootloader unlocking???
After OTA my n2 lost root.
I can also confirm, that Kingo roots the N2 after taking the Verizon OTA, but the bootloader remains locked. For me acquiring root again was great, because I use the Xposed framework a lot and many other apps that need root. As for the bootloader, I'm sure that sooner or later, one of the great devs will kick butt and get it unlocked. For those guys that challenge is like an itch.

Wouldn't bet on it. S4 and Note 3 are both locked and will likely remain that way. Never say never but the likelihood is slim.
You're right and honestly as long as I have, root I don't care much anymore. If it happens great, if it doesn't ok. Sooner or later we will upgrade to a new toy. Lol

[Q] back up and restore app data

Hi, I have a few questions about backing up app data and also about root. first of all I rooted my Note 3 using Kingo Root several months ago, but recently received a minor update and lost root, but the device status is still "modified." Is that normal? Also, because the status is modified I can't receive major updates (Kitkat 4.4) so what I want to do is go back to stock 4.3 but I have to back up my data first. what I want to know is- is there a way to backup not only apps but their data as well? like S-note notes and action memo notes, sketchbook sketches, etc? Also because I read that kingo root is so shady, is there a better way to root the Galaxy Note 3?
Thank you!

Thank you for the reply, however, I am on stock recovery and would like to stay there. I was hoping for an app or something to back up, and I know titanium backup would do it but I no longer have root after the minor update. I could reroot, but the only method I know of is kingo root. What other methods are there for the Note 3? Thanks again.

Ok, thanks.
By the way, is Kingo still frowned upon here? Or have things changed?

I do not know Kingo, therefore, can not say anything good or bad about it.

I know I read on here a while back that they might be transferring information about devices, etc, to their servers. I didn't know if that was actually confirmed or debunked. Anyone else know? I know that method works, but don't want to use if that's the fact. I am leary of trying something new at first, but will with enough research (obviously lol.)
Also, while I'm here, the ultimate goal here is to get back to stock temporarily so I can update to 4.4, once I backup everything, if I flash the stock FW 4.3, even if I am rooted at the time, it should work right? Any consequences like Knox tripping?
Thank you for all the help
Ok, I've read some of the threads on here about Kingo and don't want to use it, so my question now is, is there a good root method for the Note 3 that doesn't trip Knox? The one-click method mentioned earlier appears to be Kingo from my Google searches.
What is with this :

That is an .bat Windows CMD Program
It´s very easy. :good:

Thanks I'll check it out. :good:
By the way, does it trip Knox? I couldn't see anything about it in the thread.
I don´t understand what is "Knox" ?
What has Knox to do with this ?

The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 has Knox, the security feature, and if it's tripped, there goes your warranty. I thought all Note 3s had that. I just don't want to lose my warranty. Isn't Knox the flash counter for the note 3?
When you root your Device, your warranty is lost !
Knox will also ever say "No Warranty" when you root the Note 3
It's up to you what you're doing
But warranty is waste when your Note 3 work
So you can root it.
When the Note 3 work now, it will work in 5 years :good:

true, but from what I understand, you can flash official FW to unroot and the status will become "official" but if Knox is tripped there is no undoing that.
You can root the Note 3 and ignore Knox
Or when you can´t undo that and if you disturb this, don´t root the Note 3
But i think it´s no problem

Kaos is right. I've been on LP since the notification hit my phone and rooted it the same hour then used this app and done. The only thing I want/need right now is a deodex ROM which should be out very soon.

You don't have to have service to root and device. However you to need service to use the data for the wifi tethering. I'm on the OTA OC5 and rooted with wifi tethering >>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/not.../app-one-click-hotspot-enabler-menus-t2816159 <<< This is a link that will turn on the tethering function.

You would have to root your device and then install the app in the first post of the link that has been posted. Please read the first page in it's entirety.

You would use Odin to flash and custom recovery(TWRP or Phils') if you have not already done so. Then you would use the custom recovery to flash a SU(Super user/Root) zip file and you would have a rooted device.
You don't need to use the 3.18 version of the app but you misread, "AT&T and T-Mobile Hotspot testing live(use v3.1.8 and report any issues please)", the dev just wants feedback from users on those carriers.

No, I don't think you understand. You use Odin to flash a custom recovery to a Samsung device or a stock image, bootloader, etc. Then you use the custom recovery to flash a ROM that is rooted or flash a SU zip that has the binaries and or some other goodies for root. However, this does require you to read, a lot, since there are several different version and updates for this phone. The link that has been provided is a download for an app that you would install after you have root, but before you tried to do any of this you should have read and read some more until you understood what you were doing. From the post that you have been placing in this thread you have not read any of the links I have and others have provided and don't know what steps you were trying to do, so I not sure if I can help.
The best thing to do is to use odin and flash a stock tar, but you have to read, read, read. You need to know what firmware version you had before doing this, if not you can mess the phone up bad.
I use "WiFi Tether Router". It's in the app store and it works great for me.
