Hey all, I'm picking up a used note 3 today and I'm sure the person has done on the available AT&T updates. I'm not sure what the latest update version should be, but if he in fact had updated it am I screwed on getting root and putting safestrap on it? I had the note 3 before, but switched to the S5 and I can't take it no more....i need my note 3 again lol.
Thanks in advance and I'm soooo glad to be back on the Note 3 train.
The latest update for the Note 3 is NC2. Go to towelroot.com, download the apk, click on "make it ra1n", wait for you phone to reboot, and you'll be rooted.
Make sure you install busybox before installing Safestrap v3.75 or else it won't work.

I'm in the process of trying to upgrade my Dynamic Kat 4.3 ROM to the most recent 4.4 version, and saw that I needed to update my Safestrap from 3.71 to 3.75. I downloaded the Safestrap 3.75 apk (as well as made sure I had the most recent Busybox version already installed), and installed it. Everything appeared to install fine with no issues. I rebooted to try to go into Safestrap, but did not get the splash screen with an option to boot in the Safestrap recovery. I noticed on the 3.75 post that not seeing a splash screen is known issue and the suggestion was just to try re-installing the apk. I have since tried uninstalling/reinstalling the 3.75 apk probably about 6-8 times, then I tried uninstalling 3.75 and back-leveling to 3.71... still no splash screen. Then I tried uninstalling and re-installing 3.75.... again, no splash screen. At this point I've uninstalled/reinstalled over 10 times now, and am at a loss as to where to go next. I've spent about an hour looking around on google and in the forum here for people with the same issue but haven't had any real luck. This seems like such a trivial problem that should be able to fixed that I really don't want to have to revert back to Stock through ODIN mode and re-root, re-flash ROM, etc. if at all possible. Is there anything else that can be done to resolve this?
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

It sounds to me as if you were on JB and tried to use a KK rom through Safestrap. You can't do that because SS doesn't flash the kernel. You can't run a TouchWiz based KitKat rom on a JellyBean kernel. Your only option is to either Odin back to stock JB and use the setup you had been running, or Odin to stock 4.4.2 KitKat after which you can root, install SS 3.75. Only then will you be able to run the latest DynamiKat rom. All this is assuming you're using an AT&T note 3.

I misread your post thinking you were no longer able to boot at all. If you want to stay on JB, just reinstall SS 3.71. Make sure you're actually installing the recovery and not just the apk. But if you want the latest DynamiKat Kitkat version, you're going to have to upgrade your phone to 4.4.2 first.

Thanks for the reply!!
OK, so maybe I misunderstood what it would take to upgrade to KK... The ROM I'm running now is JB and I had thought that I could just download the APK for Safestrap 3.75, and uninstall the 3.71 version I already had, install 3.75, then go into the 3.75 SafeStrap and install my new KK rom.... it sounds like it isn't that simple.
My phone is booting and working just fine right now on the older Dynamic Kat JB rom I've been running, it just doesn't display the splash screen for Safestrap now when I reboot. You mentioned I need to upgrade my phone to 4.4.2 first in order to use SS 3.75 and install a KK rom, and I thought that just installing the 3.75 Safestrap apk did that. What is the process to upgrade the recovery to 4.4.2 if I can't just install the SS 3.75 APK?
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure SS 3.75 only works if you're on 4.4.2. I think you're misunderstanding though. SS doesn't upgrade your phone. You have to upgrade your phone's firmware yourself to 4.4.2. Then you can use SS 3.75 which is COMPATIBLE with 4.4.2.

Ahh ok. I do have an AT&T Note 3, and I know I haven't updated the firmware to 4.4.2 yet. Is there a post stickied somewhere with a link and instructions to install the new firmware?
This should lead you in the right direction

Hello,
I have a samsung galxay s 5 running on android 4.4.2. its model number is samsung-sm-g900a. I rooted it 6 months ago but decided to unroot it when the lollipop update came out, so i would be able to get the update. I used odin and downloaded the samsung galaxy s5 stock. I have tried twice to unroot my phone but after i go through the process and download root checker on the play store, i find that my device is still rooted. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The downgrade to nce file should work fine, ive used it multiple times and been unrooted. You can load the lollipop update prerooted thlugh if you want to do it that way, which a guide for is in general.

I'm running the pre-rooted lollipop on an at&t S5 and works very well. If you unroot and get the official OTA update, you'll be stuck unrooted until someone finds a way to root again.
If you use the pre-rooted file you can go back to KitKat if you don't like the new Lollipop.
This is a Verizon Samsung Note 3 SM-N900V.
I recently installed Lolipop with Odin to ipgrade.Jasmine ROM 3.5
Safestrap we working until I upgraded to Lolipop. Root is intact, but SS just aren't there. I can't get SS to would at all, it says it is installed in the app, but it doesn't come up on reboot anymore.
Is there any way to get my SS working again? The phone is fine and still rooted, but SS adds a layer of data integrity that we can all deal with more of.
This this no matter
Thanks!!

I just wanted to add some info that might help:
The phone is a SM-N900V
Kernel version 3.4.0
JasmineROM-V5.1.1-lrx21v.n900vvrue0b6
Se enforcement enabled
Running Knox 2.3
Is there any way that I can put Safestrap back on?
Thanks in advance.
Yes, you need to install NC2 flasher...but before you do this, find the kernel for Lollipop and put it on your phone. That way you can flash it from safestrap so when you reboot it will work correctly. Switching back and forth between kernels is the only way! If you don't have the kernel on your phone, you need to put the phone in download mode and ODIN the kernel over.
