I saw in a different thread that downgrading from stock lollipop to stock kitkat will trip the knox counter. Will upgrading from stock kitkat to stock lollipop trip the counter as well?
I am buying an unlocked T-mobile note 4 and will not be using it with T-Mobile...but want to figure out how I will get the OTAs without tripping knox. TIA
I doubt we will get another update. So no need to worry about ota update. I don't think u will trip knox . if u stay unrooted u should be fine

As long as it took for us to get lolli I think that M will be note 5 and maybe a year later note 4 if they even do it

i was wondering if anyone is making a root for the newest OTA update to the AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 3
Bulid Number- JSS15J.N900AUCUBMJ5
Don't want to use Kingo because it's not approved by XDA

The original version of Kingo is not approved. The current version has no issues. I used it and many others have. If you are worried about sending out information, then any APP you have installed is a potential threat. They do not have to list all the requirements an app needs in the store.
If you download Kingo to your PC and start to install it there is a terms of service you have to agree to. In that TOS on line 5 the makers of Kings state they do not remove, copy, or send any data from your PC or device to be rooted.
That being said if they are found to be sending any sort of data or info then you can sue them for Violation of that term.
Kingo is the only safe and brick/mistake proof method for MJ5 right now and many of us have used it with no issues.
Does Kingo trip the the KNOX flag? I really want to root this device and get rid of some of the bloatware on it. BUT since its only about 3 days old and I have a contract I don't want to make it un-replaceable if something else happens.
Also I read that 4.4 will be released... Ive been with ATT for years and have found them to be a bit slow on updates. Will we get 4.4 or not?
Thanks

Kingo does not trip KNOX. It also has the ability to be unrooted by reconnecting to PC and unrooting or Go into SU on the phone and select unroot. Then the phone will be as though you never rooted it. I have confirmed this works on MJ5 as well.
As for 4.4, I doubt you will see it on the N3. Samsung likes to hold out for the next device for the new Android version. So if they make a Note 4 then 4.4 will be released to it. The only chance N3 users have for 4.4 is if the Bootloader is ever unlocked or use Safestrap once somebody makes a ROM based on KitKat.
I'd argue we Will see kitkat myself. This is the best att has right now IMHO. And of wager at lest one more major update.

Hi!
Was just about to try and root my Gear 2 Neo, I noticed my firmware is r381xxu0bnl2 rather than NE5.
Is there anyway that I can downgrade?
Don't wanna try just flashing the firmware incase it bricks etc.
Any help is appreciated..
Thanks.

Download the Odin file from Samfirmware.com for the NE5 firmware and just flash it back down with Odin.
Or there are links here: LINK
Then do the root, cant guarantee the root will work with the bnl2 version.
It may be worth trying the root, if it screws up the system you can always flash the firmware from Odin again, its quite hard to brick Samsung devices unless you mess with the bootloader.

I noticed that the release countries were quite patchy, judging by the way Samsung phones work I dont think you will find a problem flashing a Canadian or UK rom on your watch so long as the model (sm-r381) matches the firmware you find to update it to. I believe all the Gear 2 neo's are all the same hardware so flashing it with other roms of the same model should be ok.
Btw I am running the Polish 5.0 rom on my galaxy s5 and have had no problems. So running a Canadian version on a US watch should be fine, so long as you dont mind the rom being made for the same country justin bieber came from. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Man, that was below the belt
The risk of flashing a Canadian ROM is that the only notifications are for hockey scores :highfive:
Just kidding....I'm in Canada but still pondering if I should upgrade....as I posted elsewhere on XDA, I have ZERO problems with BNE5 and Note3. Even the battery is amazing (10-15%/day for light use)

Ok, you can flash the old firmware but:
1-won'th the phone answer to upgrade?
2-Will you lose the new firmware feature (maybe battery things or so?)

Hi, I need help with the ROM selection process. So idk if the Knox counter is still the same since I last rooted, which was a Note 3, but it has to be a 0x0 counter to avoid tripping it. Is there a way to unvoid the warranty and return to stock without T-Mobile noticing if the phone has problems? Which ROM is similar to the S6's debloated Touchwiz with all the features? Is there even a port? Lollipop available for the Note 4 as well? Samsung is really dropping the ball for software updates. Thanks for the info and help.
All these questions could of been answered and have been in many other threads. Use search and read up.
Go into the Development section and look around.

No. But many have done warranty exchanges with 0x1 with no problems, including me.
As for all the other questions, you can check the developer section.
And no lollipop yet. Sprint just go theirs, but hopefully we'll be up next.
Hi,
I have a few questions regarding updating my T-mobile Note 4 (SM-N910T)
And have not yet received the 5.1.1 update I'm on 5.0.1.
So if I do this manual update will my warranty remain?
Is it safe?
Will my phone still be official stock?
Will I be able to use automatic updates in the future?
Thanks.

T-Mobile has not received an update to 5.1.1 for the SM-910T. The only phone that has 5.1.1 is the SM-910T3 which has different hardware. Be sure you know which phone you have before you even consider upgrading.

Wow didn't know there was a difference probably why I kept getting Auth failed and gave up
T-Mobile has the update for SM-N910T, they just haven't released it. Samsung gave the update to the carriers. Sprint is the only carrier to release the update to the public OTA, to this date. Like Alkali said, SM-N910T3 has 5.1.1 and that's because the phone is a revised version and was shipped with the latest. As far as I know, you can only get the T3 from a warranty standpoint. I could be wrong.
That's why. I haven't done it lol I'm on jump and getting the note 5 trading my note 4 in. I figured it will tick them off that my phone is on 5.1.1 probably be like "how did you get this build?"

If you got the phone with lollipop installed, unfortunately there is no active rooting method.

I have the AT&T S5 running Lollipop.
I don't recall - but I *think* I got this device before Lollipop was released. I got the device in May'14. My research shows that Lollipop came out Nov'14.
So - if I got the device with the prior release - but it's running Lollipop now - is there a way to root it?
Thanks.
No I have the same problem. I have been waiting for months now

If you are on the official 5.0+ ota, through any means other than the prerooted flashfire method, there is no known way to downgrade, root, etc. If you flashed the ota for lollipop, bought your phone and it had lollipop, or took the ota, and it is an att s5 (G900A) then it is not, at the time of me posting this, possible to downgrade to KitKat or root or anything of the sort.

Does anyone have the firmware for the lollipop on s5 active?
Does anyone know if models of S5 being sold as new now are being released with lollipop or kitkat preinstalled?
Is there a way to know by serial number on the box?
The reason I am asking is I just purchased one online a few days ago on the daily steals website has it was advertised As new and unlocked. I did not realize being that I am from Canada that this was a lockdown AT&T model. It is scheduled to arrive in the next day or so and I would prefer not to open the box and affect my ability to return it without restocking fee if it already comes with lollipop on it. Hi I'm less concerned about achieving root and more concerned about having the ability to native flea tether on my plan back here in Canada.
Also if it did come with lollipop firmware preinstalled, is there a way to enable native tethering on the phone if root is not achievable?

I'm not sure either I would just see if it is a 5.0 and below and just achieve root its so simple then you flash native tethering it just sounds like that would be the easiest way
5.0 and below or just kit Kat?

KitKat 4.4.2, if you're on 4.4.4 you can downgrade, any higher (5.0) and you're stuck.
