I can not get this device to root. I have tried everything i see or can think of. I really need some help. I have the SMn900p I have tried to root this phone all weekend. I cant do it for nothing. I will be throwing this phone out the window if i cant get it rooted. Right now im stuck at the RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING. Odin wont detect my device any more and when it was working i couldn't get Kies to detect it because my MTP option will not come up on the phone. If i try to update the device thru OTA i get a error about my connection and that i should try later or go thru Kies. I am beyond pissed that i paid so much money for the "best" phone without a contract and i cant even root it. Its really depressing smh...... Please someone help me.

Sorry I guess I should have expressed that. I'm on 4.3 stock flashed to Red Pocket Mobile. My activation is locked I guess because I still have the green check telling me I need to activate the device. When my phone is in DL Mode The info says Custom and Knox is tripped 0x1 but I'm not rooted nor do I have a Custom Recovery (If any of that information helps) Thanks for the reply

You gotta get the correct drivers if odin is not reading. If you're still stuck on that screen, pull the battery, boot into download mode, hit vol up to continue, plug the n3 in and see if odin reads it. If it reads then flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2655883 cuz Freeza is awesome, that'll get you on kitkat, then run cf's auto root cuz Chainfire is awesome. I guess the root exploits are up to date for 4.4.2 cuz I was on 4.3 mj4 and had the same problem of locking up on the recovery boot screen.

Just to warn you. If this locks your bootloader, its probably locked forever a la the S4 and N3. If you previously used a custom recovery, you will no longer have this option, likely ever again with this phone. In addition, getting Hashcode to develop SS for this phone is unlikely in my opinion because we've been unlocked for so long and the phone is over a year old. Many times users take root and unlocked bootloaders for granted, thinking that if they take the OTA, someone will figure out how to reunlock or reroot the phone, the former is HIGHLY unlikely. If you can wait a day, someone will likely post an unmodified flashable zip of the newest OTA that won't jeopardize your unlocked bootloader. If you truly don't care about losing this option for good, then by all means go ahead and odin the OTA, the PDA slot should do it.
So this is what I am pondering. I'm running cleanrom which is no longer supported; should I stick with 4.2 forever or take the 4.3 build from verizon ?

There are more than just those two options. You can stay on clean ROM til a rooted, stable OTA flashable is posted. Beans is working on that now I believe. That way you'll have the same experience that the OTA gives, but you'll retain the option to root or even flash a different ROM should you desire. Beans will also be updating his custom ROM build to my knowledge based on this new OTA.
How do I track this? I mean is there a thread that Bean post to that will indicate wehn this is ready ?

If you can get to download mode it's not bricked. Try doing a factory reset in stock recovery or figure out why your drivers aren't recognizing the device.

I cant get to stock recovery, unfortunately. The device IS being recognized (its showing up in the [ID:COM] spot) but for some reason after flashing Odin seems to have stopped talking to the device...
This is the message I get in ODIN when connecting the device

Hello, I updated my device to 4.3 yesterday, today I ran the "NoYouVerizon-GalaxyNote2-CASUAL R515" but I got a firmware not supported. I rebooted my phone and now its showing the "firmware upgrade encountered an issue, please select recovery mode in Kies & Try again."
I tried Odin back to the previous 4.1.1(Section 1b: How to return to stock 4.1.X Jelly Bean coming from any rom with Odin) but it fails as well. It says firmware unsupported on the phone.
Does anyone (devs or others) have the firmware and stock 4.3 ROM i can flash so I can get my phone up and running again?
Thanks.

You probably already know this, but if your bootloader is locked if you updated (and probably because you repaired) via VZW's update software (OTA). Attempts to flash an alternate recovery will trip the KNOX counter. You can achieve root, though there are some security concerns about Kingo (XDA doesn't allow it on the forums - reason enough to do your research first).

The Knox counter shows 0 in download mode. I noticed that was a new thing. Its restored back to factory so I won't be touching it until a exploit for 4.3 has been fully tested.

That's the safe bet. I'm afraid I tripped the counter myself. Here's hoping there's an exploit to be found an developers willing to search for it.

Kernel build date on NG3 is July 19 so the exploit has been patched. Can't root with towelroot since it needs a kernel build before Jun 3.
What I did was odin flash philz recovery, then went into the custom recovery and went to reboot, it asked me to root and so I did then was able to download su from play store and was rooted

This phone will never not be rootable. It has an unlocked bootloader, so you can just flash the recovery of your choice, root it from there, then reboot and you're done.

And why is that? Unless Samsung has restricted the bootloader permissions or set a new qfuse to block a downgrade of this firmware version, then the OP could use Odin to install a pre June 3rd build of 4.4.2 firmware, which Towel root can work with.
The previous update was revertible by installing an earlier firmware (confirmed). And NG3 is probably revertible as well (unconfirmed) i.e. it will be revertible unless Samsung took explicit steps to block a downgrade.
Provided that the OP doesn't care about the Knox flag, then the suggestion to install a custom recovery and root from there is valid too.

Yeah, I did it via download mode.
So, what I did, I flash it via Odin in Download mode, and when it auto-reboots, I instantly hold Power + Pwr Up + Home in order to get to Recovery.
If I let it boot up first, it seems that recovery is overwritten by the stock recovery.
All good now =)

Mine is the MS-G900T with the latest firmware :S is very weird, isn't the first time I root a phone (Galaxy Vibrant and Blaze, Nexus and Nexus 7) and I have flsh a lot of times and I know the for this procedure you have to follow each letter step by step!
I'm start thinking that probably is a locked bootloader... dunno...
this was easy and thank you. i downgraded with the full stock file, no data loss. grabbed mobile pro and im now at ng3 rooted. tho my e-mail will not work. might have to factory reset the device.

Being rooted dows NOT allow you to install a custom recovery. This requires a unlocked bootloader. You will more than likely have to use Odin to reflash ND7 and then root again

The reason in installed clockwork recovery was I was trying to use the mods listed listed HERE> http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-2-verizon/development/mod-wifi-usb-hotspot-tethering-t2874035
I got the first warning, ( "System Software not Authorized" ) after installing clockwork recovery.
Next I download 4.4.2 from Sam Mobile and tried using Odin then Kies several times and the warning changed to "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue please select recovery mode in kies and try again".
I think it's a Hard Brick because GhettoRoot is preventing me from flashing 4.4.2.
It was a brand new phone I got under warranty. What should I say when I return it?
( All-together I have # 4 of the note 2's. Two with cracked screens, Also I have One Re-Manufactured asurion and this brand new one that has the software warning )
For a test I tried flashing 4.4.2 on one of the other phone with GhettoRoot, that would not work either.

The first item is odd, as Global Roaming shouldn't require an update, unless they changed something in the modem.
Got really excited this was Marshmellow.
Regardless, thanks for the upload!!
Thank you.
Thanks for this

not a problem, already tripped it :/
Ditto
Since auto reboot is unchecked, do I reboot once it says passed? Odin says all threads complete and success 1 fail 0.

the reason for no auto rebooting is in case you want to flash twrp img.zip to root it be fore it boots the first time. its not mandatory. but if your rooting its sure easier
CF-Auto-Root some how reverted back to AO6.
Yeah im showing android version 5.0 after flash in odin and twrp and supersu.
so is this not working,.. or causing people issues? My daughter's stock s5 got the update ota.. but because I'm rooted I am thinking this is the only way. Currently I'm on OG1

its still 5.0 but its version ok4. if you want stock completely. dont uncheck auto reboot.
the auto reboot is unchecked so you can restart in download mode and flash either cf/auto root (if that works havent tried it) or twrp.img.tar
to gain root. in fact some people are saying if your already rooted when you first reboot, reboot into recovery and twrp will ask if you want root and root the rom itself.
Does this retain user data like the Kies update?

You have the CF Auto AO6 version made for MOAR. You need the regular CF Auto.

If you wipe 3 times and Factory reset 3 times in recovery first. Then flash this in Odin it comes out perfect. Running it right now.
