I'm currently on 4.3 nb4. I got my note 3 already rooted. I want to move on to kk. My question is how do I know what root method was used. So I know how to continue.

To my knowledge only kingo and vroot worked on 4.3 and they were the same just different websites

Ive tried a few times with Kingo. I keep getting a "Root Failed NotSupport" message each time.

I didn't think the current version of Kingo Root worked for MJ5. I know Kingo Root is suppose to be releasing a version 2 of their root method... Been searching for a way to root MJ5 as well after mine auto updated, making me lose root...:crying:

Hmmm might have to give kingo a shot again. Didn't work for me before the update :/

On page 98 of root de la vega designgears posted a universal root method for when a new firmware drops. Haven't personally tried it yet though

I am rooted with Kingo and MJ5, working fine. I did have to re-root after the OTA update though.

I was rooted with Kingo before OTA. Unrooted to get uodate. Then rerooted. Took about 10 times for Kingo version 1.1.2 to recognize my phone but it finally worked.

i heard kingo has a malware?
Well from what I understand people thought that because of the imei being sent out. However this is not 100% reliable.... I am going to attempt to root with kingo again myself.

Just rooted with kingo about 30 mins ago so far no issues although the process was kind of iffy. Seems like it just keeps trying different methods until its rooted. It never even got to the screen that said I was rooted I just opened supersu after like the 3rd time and I was rooted so I just unplugged it.
Edit: by the way I had to use a USB cord from my note 2 the 3.0 cable didn't work at all.

I couldn't root via Root De La Vega. I actually bricked and had to odin the stock PIT back to the phone. I then found out is was because I was on MJ5, I downloaded Kingo, hooked up the phone and it rooted it painlessly. Thanks Kingo!
Thank You!
Like some of you guys, i was able to root with Kingo version 1.1.2
Thank You!
I also was finally able to get root using Kingo. Ended up having to use a different computer and a usb 2.0 cable, instead of the 3.0 cable that came with the phone. Now I can stop debating on wether or not to return my Note 3. :good:

I believe that since its more or less a universal method one click it has to figure out what device you're using. Thus why it appears to keep trying. And yeah the you're rooted screen took a bit to come up when I did it the 2nd time

I'm currently on MI9 and think I want to update to MJ5 for safestrapping in the future. I can't find the firmware anywhere. Please help, I'm really lost.
1. What are the benefits of updating?
2. Is there any benefit of staying on my current firmware?
3. How would I go from rooted MI9 to MJ5?

You can use safestrap on MI9. I'm on it and safestrap works fine.

New to this forum and to the Note 3. My question may have been asked before on here, sorry in advance.
After spending hours online, I would like to know if there is root option for:
Samsung ATT N900A Note 3 running 4.4.2 Baseband Version N900AUCUCMLG.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
No if you want kitkat and root you need to go back to mj5 then install safestrap then install knoxraid. The way I understand it it is basically mlg with root and some debloat

I wouldn't use the method posted above unless you verify it is or 4.4.2 which I don't believe it is. There currently is not a root option if you are using kit Kat. Lots of people are waiting for root. When it happens you will surely see a method posted. The methid in the link above is more than likely root for a jelly bean version and may screw up your phone.

He is correct the method above will not work. I believe actually it only worked on mi9. If you do this at best it will simply fail at worst you will brick... In all likely hood you would wind up at a best buy getting reflashed.

Seen this app that can root phone easily without downgrading and any hard stuff that most of us don't want to risk so can anyone update that app so that it can root our 4.4 kit Kat update
Sent from my C6602 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
No. It doesn't work like that. A new exploit has to be found to root KitKat. It isn't just a matter of updating existing tools.
