[GUIDE]How to safely root MJA 4.3

Hello Everyone.
Its has come to my attention that alot of people are having issues rooting the new OTA MJA 4.3. I have found the safest way to root MJA without any problems. Ive had several members test my method and it has worked on the frist try without any problems. I'm going to give my steps in a detailed way that it is very easy to understand and as well download links to what i used to root 4.3 MJA. Now here we go everyone.
Items Required
1. A GS4 on the 4.3 MJA OTA
2. Laptop or desktop
3. USB cord
4. ODIN 3.07
5. CF Root
6.CWM 6.0.4.4(Comfirmed working on the I9000 and I9505 for restore backups without any issues)
DISCLAIMER: I am not at fualt for anything happening to your phone. If you follow my guide word for word you want have any issues. Note this well still trip the knox counter to 0x1. As there is no way to stop this from happening at this time.
STEP ONE
First things first download all the files you need from the links below. While thats do that grab your S4 and hold the power button down until the menu pops up and select power off and hit ok. Now make sure you let the device power down fully before doing anything esle or you will have issues. Once powered down fully take ur phone and press and hold the power+volume down until you see green words on the screen and hit the volume up button to continue and now your in download mode.
STEP TWO
Now find CF Root file you will have to open the zip with 7zip. Now start ODIN 1.85 and now connect your device to your computer via the USB cord. You should see a yellow box with the word COM in it doesn't matter what the number is. Now hit the PDA button and select the CF Root tar file. Then hit start and dont unplug the USB cord until it says pass in odin. It will reboot and let it reboot fully and go to your app drawer and check and make sure SuperSU is in the app draw open it and update it. Now go to play store and download rootchecker app and verify that you have root.
STEP THREE
Once you have verified your rooted now hold the power button down wait for the menu to pop up and hit power off the device dont forget to let fully power down and now hit the power+volume down and wait for the green letters to pop up and hit the volume up to continue in to download mode. Now open ODIN3.07 and then hook your device back to your computer wait for the yellow or blue box with COM and any number and go to PDA button and select the CWM 6.0.4.4 tar file and hit the start button and wait for ODIN to say pass which now with the new bootloader it adds a extra 2 min to the boot time so the phone boot and sit until odin says pass and now you are rooted and have a custom recovery. Now power down the device and wait for it to finish powering down for the last time and press and hold power+volume up until you see blue,red and yellow words in the top left corner and now your in your custom recovery and now make a backup so if anything happens you have something to fall back on. Cuz your on 4.3 now until furture notice theres no returning to MF9 the bootloader will not let you go back if you try to you will tons of problems and headaches trust me ive seen the posts.
Now you have successfully rooted and put a custom recovery on your S4 with the 4.3 MJA update. If having any issues plz dont be scared to ask i will do what i can help you. ENJOY!!!!

This guide will work if you take the OTA I dont think it will work if your have the the MF9 bootloader. I did unroot MF9 then I install the 4.3 OTA then rerooted after that. Sorry for all the confusion and problems everyone is having with this guide I should have been more clear.

one more the road

First after the OP

Great simple write up G!
This puts together what's in about six different posts offer many pages.
Also,
Can someone provide a source on the "confirmation" that Sprint will replace the phone. I saw a few people say that on some other threads, but have yet to see a source - reputable I mean. I know I'd be real pissed if I killed my$500 device and was left in the cold.

Hey. So I'm on sacs awesome v8. Should I jump to 4.3? Do you notice any differences? Im thinking about getting the gear so u probably need to make the jump. Just going to miss some of the customizations. Was it an easy discussion for you?

Well here is my 2 cents on it. I know this device pretty good, and I notice a major difference in how things are with MJA. The visual changes were astounding after I updated, cause the display is so so much cleaner, I was so amazed. No lag, great smoothness in transitions and such. Also yes, you will need 4.3 for full gear support, but man I'll tell ya, we've made some good strides in the past few days with all the drama 4.3 dropped on us. YES, there are a few hoops to Jim thru to eat to MJA, and no, you cannot go back to MF9 at the moment, but Why would anyone expect this to all to be so easy eventide is crazy.
Today wth security concerns, and tech getting more and more advanced, things are bound to change. I don't thnk this update is worth selling the S4. Only got UF working on his rom update FOR MJA and he also got a flashable for the modems if your still on MF9, which people said couldn't be done. You got Sac already workng on MJA, and a few others helping us out as well. CNexus, likearaptor, ect.....
So my conclusion to my Trolling, Off-topic, subject for cancelation of my account possibly lol, It's all p to you. If you wanna experience Google and Sammy 's newest edition for or device, and have full support for your Gear, then yes, go for it. But f you can't live without some hardware tweaks, themes, ect.. For a week or so, then I would say no. Dude, you should know me by know. You think I like running the StockUI lol? NOOOOOOOOO lol...
Edit... And Primo, This is all after in used THIS method to gain 4.3. It's really very easy. You have me on Hangouts if ya need me, and Teddy here is a frakken awesome guy, he'll help you out for surr if needed
**Sorry Teddy lol, I'll erase this all if you like**

[Kernel/Root] Root for the SM-G530T 5.1.1 [AOF8]

Root method for AOF8 / 5.1.1 for the SM-G530T THIS WILL TRIP KNOX. If you don't want to trip knox don't use this. If you do use it and whine you tripped knox because you didn't read ,we will all point and laugh at you.
Named it TrapKernel because well its not my normal HispAsian Kernel and I listened to a crap ton of Trap Music while doing it.
Thanks to @g.lewarne and his root method with his Unibase and Unikernel for the s6 , we finally have root after I ported it over to us. So be sure to thank him for his work.
What's included:
Auto installation of root and busy box
Kernel set to permissive
Otherwise stock
So here's the deal. Stupid simple.
1. Put Phone in Download mode
2. Open Odin
3. Connect Phone
4. Put Kernel in AP Slot
5.Flash it
6. Reboot and profit
Notes:
Download SuperSu from the Playstore. Its not included.
If it doesnt boot on first boot, pull the battery and reboot
Download
Do NOT mirror this link. Period.
TrapKernel AOF8
Special thanks to:
@g.lewarne for the obvious reason of being awesome and his root method for the s6.
@ajp87 for testing multiple tests
@Chainfire for SuperSU
​

Heres the source set to permissive for anyone that want to fork it and build a kernel that'll allow root:

Wait! You've made a kernel/root for the grand prime too?
Does it function the same way as the core prime?
if so, you're a godsend!
I've always wanted the grand prime (after i saw my sister taunting me while she took selfies and video with the device.)
I was able to root hers (Since it was the CricKet model) but i always wanted to get the grand (T-mobile version) and root it.

Actually, he was legitimately asking the question. Because just like me he doesnt own this particular variant. Well actually I dont even own a Grand prime at all. So if you want to be a prick you can go do it in another thread or in a PM and not disrespect users in the thread I gave you root in.

Open Source Sound Control Code?
Hey, love the kernel and have tweaked it using SetCPU. I was curious however is there is any way to enable support for Faux Sound by patching the Open Source Sound Control Code? This would enable us to get more volume out of this beast!

There's zero features to this kernel. I didn't add anything. And that'd be the kernel source. Is there a way, yes. But I don't own the device so am I going to do it? Probably not

[SM-T510/T515] Kernel source for 2019 Galaxy Tab A 10.1 posted

Samsung replied to my OSS request today with word that they'd shared kernel source for the 2019 Galaxy Tab A 10.1 [SM-T510/T515].
http://opensource.samsung.com
The version posted is T510XXU1ASC7, which matches the latest OEM firmware available online:
https://samfrew.com/model/SM-T510/
https://samfrew.com/model/SM-T515/
This will unblock my TWRP development and should also enable efforts to build most custom ROMs for the new hardware.

Great stuff! Just bought a T510, hope to receive the tablet today.

You will not regret it
I am so happy with it after I managed to root it.
Other than using "key combo" to turn it on, everything works as it's supposed to including Titanium Backup.
There's some headache on T590 and the users cannot use Titanium Backup even it's rooted

I built NoKnox and TWRP for the SM-T515 after they posted the kernel source, but my volunteer tester couldn't get them to work. Maybe you'll have better luck?
(Unfortunately, I don't have the hardware to test myself. They're not selling them in the U.S.)

The TWRP and NoKnox builds for SM-T515 are linked in this post, and you're welcome to give them a try. I'll build another test release when we get the next kernel source update.

I bought this tablet recently which is a Korea set but i realized it comes as t515n model. Does anyone know if this twrp will work?

BTW, the T510XXU2ASI4 kernel source was published this week.

I managed to install TWRP on SM-T515 and root it using Magisk Zip. I tried many files but that one worked:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1nIqcIzNHyFiwtm7b_NL_F3X-2LWouL7t
I've also backed up rooted stock using TWRP , but cannot recover it using same app.
I've also tried to install Nexus Stock ROM but failed. I'll try to learn how to compile LineageOS on this device. Any help on compiling it would be appreciated. The missing parts as I understand are:
- some way of doing backups well, so I can recover from them and go "back in time"
- TWRP flashable zip package with Nexus ROM or LineageOS

I managed to install TWRP on SM-T515 and root it using Magisk Zip. I tried many files but that one worked:

I've also backed up rooted stock using TWRP , but cannot recover it using same app.
I've also tried to install Nexus Stock ROM but failed. I'll try to learn how to compile LineageOS on this device. Any help on compiling it would be appreciated. The missing parts as I understand are:
- some way of doing backups well, so I can recover from them and go "back in time"
- TWRP flashable zip package with Nexus ROM or LineageOS

You can't backup stock using TWRP because the data partition is encrpted. You can format the data partition with TWRP, but you lose EVERYTHING on the partition when you do. Not just things lost when wiping, but all saved stuff like photos, videos etc.

Hi there great to see Samsung development still going on. I had rooted a Samsung tab 2 7.0 long time ago and again have a Samsung tab A 10.1 LTE(T515). I would like to know whether your ROM builds would work with the LTE variant too? With network working too?

root & rom custom

hello everyone
first of all sorry for my bad english
i have a galaxy note 9 exynos N960FXXS4CSJ1 Kernel : 4.9.59-16685647
i would like to root it and flash a costom room ( no more warranty ), ive found this thread but i am confused
i also would like to know from your experience what the best kernel & room for the note 9 (better battery life / google camera / more option...) please

Are you aware of the consequences of rooting? If so then go ahead and follow the instructions of the threat you link.
For the best rom and kernal you have to actually try and see for yourself, but I recommend @dr.ketan custom room.

For a start it will trip knox, tripping Knox cannot be undone.
Samsung Pass, Spay, and SecureFolder will not work anymore.
Samsung Health and I noticed SmartView aren't working but there's a fix for them fortunately.
If you only need root for a custom ROM then I suggested to stay on stock ROM and wait for Android 10.

You should ignore it, as it's pre-patched. If you miss with it, you might get bootloop.

did u wait at least 5 to 10 minutes before abandoning?
always read and follow rom install guides. they are usually found in the first 3 posts of the roms thread.
in twrp, go to wipe and
factory reset
when u flash the rom, in aroma setup choose:
install rom
flash vendor
flash kernel
flash OEM fix
flash magisk root
then wait 5 to 10 mins after its initial reboot
also make sure you downlaoded Pie and not Q rom.
N960_F_DS_N_DrKetan_custom_ROM_P15.zip
if you still have issues i suspect you migh not have correctly went through the twrp install procedure:
flash twrp on device
go directly to twrp recovery( when odin finished to flash twrp 3.2.3_0.tar quickly hold: vol up + Bixby + power untill device is in twrp)
go to wipe menu and format data
reboot again to twrp recovery
factory wipe
install rom with options i mentioned above
an easy way to know if twrp is ready to flash a rom in to go to:
mount
check size of data (if at 0 maybe you need to redo twrp install procedure as per dr. ketan thread ( root oem fix) in general discussion area.
