Hi All...waiting for UPS to deliver my pre-ordered Note from AT&T. I use Titanium Backup and also Amazon Appstore so I definitely need to root my Note...Do I use the methods already posted here on the forums? Or will it be different seeing as this is the US version of the phone? Don't want to mess anything up by using the wrong method to root. Also, what about ROMS? Can we use any that are already out there or do we need to wait until the official release of the AT&T Note for the Devs to start cooking for us?
Thanks in advance for any help.
i dont think anyone has the att version yet. so no test has been done
Try rage against the cage method with one click root. Dont bother with the cf kernel root and custom rom here. Unlike the old days of captivate and galaxy. Note is very different between these two models .

Please be careful when doing any mods on the at&t version of the note.
The chipsets are different. I think there is a thread somewhere warning not to
update the rom on the i717 (at&t) with the international (N7000) note and vice
versa. The exploit for one might not work on the other.
Might be best to start a thread on the at&t note forum, just to be safe.

I have stock AT&T 4.4.2 and I posted a topic HERE asking if it is possible to root Note 3 or not?
According to the post HERE, it seems like someone has figure it out to root Note 3.
So, I just want to double check, now can I root my AT&T Note 3 ? and install custom ROM to it ?
That is exactly what the thread you linked to said, so yes, you can do those now...

So, once I root my AT&T Note 3 with Towelroot
What custom ROM I should install ? is there anything available out there ? As there was no way to root Note 3 before with 4.4.2 update, I don't know if there was any ROMs available or not ?
anyone ?
In the spirit of helping out, once you root with Towelroot head on over to the Note 3 development section. There are several KK ROM's . As far as a best one, "we" as a community don't label a single ROM as best. Each developer does their best to supply us with a free product. Certainly some are better, than others. It is left to the user to read and make decisions for themselves.
Thank you Roostercruiser,
I understand there could be several ROM. I am not asking what is "BEST" rom, if you could just direct me to several ROMs option, that would be helpful ? That's all I need !
Here you go.

Is there any cyanogenmot for Note 3 (AT&T) ?
I found this but it does not say if it is for AT&T or not: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hlte
Also, can anyone please give me any link where I can get STOCK AT&T ROM (touch wiz) just in case if I want to go back to stock ROM.
No, there is not a Cyanogenmod ROM for AT&T's locked bootloader on Note 3. Make nandroid of stock version you're already running after you root.
No cyanogen mod for us ... With the locked boot loader we are stuck with Samsung based Roms

So I came from an S4 and I noticed in the forum that you were able to flash some of other carriers(Verizon) roms onto your phone. I was wondering if that was possible on our note 3 with Verizon roms? Please let me know as I have been looking online but I can't seem to find the answer.

I think you can because Brian's Dynamic Kat rom also works on T-Mobile. It probably depends on the rom, ask the developer.
They can but they have to be ported over and you can't use any that use a custom kernel because we can't use those yet on att ?. There are a few ported ones in dev for jb, but not sure there is a Kk one from Verizon yet

I purchased a S6 Edge and it was updated to 5.1.1 when I got it. I am a big fan of rooting/flashing ROMS/mods (My last phone was an extremely modded Oneplus One which met an untimely end) but I am not really sure how to do that on this phone. I would very much appreciate any help with info on how to root/install TWRP. Additionally I know that the S6 on 5.0.2 can be rooted but I also heard that once you update to 5.1.1 can't downgrade but it's worth a shot. I also heard that the [email protected] version has a locked boot loader is there any way to unlock it? If not would flashing say a T-Mobile stock ROM work? Thank you for any help. I also know that Devs don't like being asked for ETAs so instead I will ask if anyone knows how development of Cyenogenmod for the S6 Edge is progressing?
There's no way to unlock the bootloader on the AT&T version of the phone. You won't be able to use a custom recovery such as TWRP.
This is also my first Samsung phone (I've always used HTC devices, which were so easy to unlock/root). Since you're on 5.1.1, I don't think there's any way to achieve root (yet). I may be wrong there, though.
There is no way to root, if you want to do fun stuff with your phone, stay away from at&t

Hi, I'm also in the same boat. I know that this thread is old but I am planning to buy the s6 edge with AT&T (used). The phone is currently running on 5.1.1, (OJ9).
Before buying, is there any possible root YET? Am I possible to downgrade? I am sure these questions have been answered multiple times, but like I said, the threads that I have found via XDA are old. So before purchasing, I'd just like to make sure. Thank you so much!!

No and no , the only hope we have is when we get android 6 and wait for any possible new root method.
Haven't had a note in a while and thinking about picking up a note 4. I am with T-Mobile and would purchase the T-Mobile version, I read about different variants and just wanted to make sure they could all be rooted, custom recovery and flashed without issue. In some of the threads here when people have issues, others ask what variant, etc.
Thanks

Get the sm-n910t (t-mobile version). Very mod friendly.
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app
The T-Mobile version comes with the bootloader unlocked out of the box. You can do whatever you want with/to it.
I just purchase a T-Mobile Note 4 on 11/17/15 from one of their store. The model that I got is the SM-N910T3 and not SM-N910T. It comes with Android 5.1.1 installed instead of 4.4.4. You will probably end up with this model. Does anyone know if this variant is still bootloader unlocked? I also read that the TW 5.1.1 rom has root blocking enabled by Samsung, can anyone recommend a custom kernel that can override this to prevent a bootloop?
T is better for ROM Support VS. T3. T3 may be smooother

You want the T version for more ROM compatibility. The T3 version can be rooted and has a few ROMS but supposedly Samsung changed something in the phone so it has alot less ROM support. It does have root and 1 or 2 good ROM's though.
Root for T3
More info on T3

Did you ever end up buying this phone? I have been thinking about picking up a used one on Swappa to use as my daily driver until Samsung releases the S8 or Note 8. I currently have a LG V10 and even though it has an unlocked bootloater and root, there is zero ROM development for it due to issues with LG firmware/drivers.
Hello All,
It has been a while since I returned back to the forms and seems kinda hard to find the path. . . .
Is this the right place for Samsung note 9 Tmobile? if not, can someone please point me to the correct forums for the T-mobile users who has the Samsung Note 9 Smartphone.
I see a lot of threads for Verizon and ATT and I don't want to be in the wrong place.
Like everyone else, I want to dig into the threads and root my Note 9.

Yes this is the correct place, the threads aren't broken up by carrier anymore also unless you have the Exynos version (which I assume you do not because you said that's on T-Mobile) Root is not available for the Snapdragon variant and I believe it hasn't been since the Galaxy S7?

acctualy, the forum is not wrong but your phone is.
so if you thought about rooting it, then you bought the wrong note 9 model.

Yup! You're in the right place! However, there is no root for the US Note 9s with the Snapdragon processor. Only the international versions have unlockable bootloaders and/or root. But the problem with an international version is no warranty and you won't have as great of a signal due to differences in supported radio bands and lack of carrier aggregation. Though some people in the US have had luck with them.
Also once you unlock the bootloader and root, you break Knox, which is permanent. Once that happens you'll never have Samsung Pay, Secure Folder, etc...again.

The Note 8 HAD root. Samfail was patched long ago when Oreo came out. The developer of Samfail said it was impossible to root the Note 8 now.

Yeah, but he'll lose carrier aggregation, so poorer signal strength, and US Warranty. And once rooted, Samsung Pay, etc.
What I want to do, but not in any specific order
Glad I made it here!!!
Thanks for the reply everyone who chimed in.
Here we go again with the no "root" from the 7 edge to this . . .
T-Mobile had this promotion that was hard to pass up so I upgraded.
What I want to do, but not in any specific order
Root
De-Bloat the bundled apps that I will not use
Install recovery tools
Install backup tools (need root)
Pimp out the kernel
It take me awhile to navigate around XDA to look for these tools and such.
I have never used Samsung Pay nor am I onboard with that service.
If anyone knows where I can find some of these tools, please don't hold back because it will take me awhile to get started.
Thanks Again!

appart from using adb to disable packages, none of the above list is possible without root.
nothing has changed regarding if the device is unrootable then these things aren't possible.

THIS

Root is not possible. Root will not be possible. You bought a phone that can't and won't be rooted. The developer of Samfail said it was impossible.
You can't have root.
Just in case you want to root the T-Mobile Note 9...you can't.
Ok, no one has provided a root or cooked a Kernel . . .
Are there any rooted roms that were baked?
Silly to ask, but are there any pure android roms for this Note 9?

I'm not sure why you're so confused. The bootloader can be unlocked. So no custom ROMs. NONE. There is no root and never will be.
What you're asking is impossible.
