Kingo Root is like one click and you are done. It's that easy.
Once you root your phone using Kingoroot...You can install Safestrap recovery. Which will allow to flash custom rom located in here. But you can't flash kernels using Safetrap since our Bootloader is locked.
Google "TWRP recovery FAQ" (Safestrap is based off TWRP) or something along those lines and it will give you an idea of what you can do with custom recovery.
P.S. You got lot to learn young grasshopper. Start Googling. Trust me, I didn't knew jack about Android until I got my N3, about 2 months back.
Hey guys
I have been trying to root my AT&T note 3 mj5 with kingo but have had no luck. Every time I connect my phone, it says it's an s2 instead of a note 3. I have tried with kies 3 installed and uninstalled, I have deleted every samsung driver from my PC and reinstalled the note 3 drivers. I have installed and uninstalled the drivers from kingos website and from Kies. I am having no luck at all. I have restarted my phone and PC probably 25 times in the process. Every time I try, I also get the pop up on my phone saying something is trying to access my device. It's the little shield icon...not sure if it's Knox or not.
Can anyone help me out?
Edit: after looking here more, I realized I still had lookout running...so that's part of it. So now I have to figure out why it still says s2 in kingo.
If kingo don't work go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48243768 and download rldv.zip
Extract rldv.zip to the root of your internal sdcard Reboot, then once SuperSu installs, Reboot again.
There are a few questions here about my gs5 and note8.0, sorry for the long post, I rarely post but need a little guidance. Sorry if this post isnt exactly up to the standards of the rules, I also tried the search feature but didnt have any luck. I have spent countless hours reading threads. Ihave successfully rooted every, all 10, of the android devices I have owned which includes two tablets. SO TO ALL WHO POST INSTRUCTIONS HERE, THANK YOU.
I rooted my gs5 with towelroot pretty much immediately when it was released. I havent had any real issues, other than the phone freezing on rare occasion, and web pages get stuck loading about 1/2 to 3/4 of the way finished, when this happens I usually toggle the apn on and off and then the page will load. This happens kind of often, I attribute it to some bug in the stock TW rom. Of course im still hoping for a way to unlock the bootloader.
I get a notified of samsung security updates here and there, I have never updated that since I rooted, I assume that updating samsung security would most likely take away my root access.
I have a note 8.0 wifi tablet also and it is rooted, I had to root with odin on the tab, towelroot didnt work. I also get secuirty update notifications on my note 8 which I also ignore.
Will samsung security updates block root>
Will the new ATT gs5 update that was released this week block towelroot? I can easily unroot and update ota then try to re root with towelroot apk, I am worried that towelroot will not work anymore if I do that.
Anyone know if the att update blocks root, and is it even worth worrying about trying to download?
My note 8 is rooted via odin, but it still has stock recovery, how do I get twrp or clockworkmod? I am pretty sure there is not a locked bootloader on this wifi tab, but I do want custom recovery.
So any help with installing clockworkmod recovery on the note 8, I know the CWM app allows you to install cwm recovery but I have only done it once and forgot to check to see if the BL was locked, well it was and It was a pain to unbrick that device.
I changed jobs so I had to switch phones. I had my old Note 3 still that I loved. I foolishly got excited once I found out that lollipop had released for the Note 3. I instantly did the software update. I don't know if that is my problem or not, but I can not find any working ROOT. I have tried Towelroot, and CF Auto Root, but can't get either one to succesfully root the phone. Does anyone know of a guide, or working ROOT for my phone. I have posted a pic of my Device info. SOMEONE PLEASE HELPPPP!!!!!!

Will there ever be a root method for samsung s5 which requires no pc? I know there is King Root but it just says root stragety unavailable, what can i do?
From what I've been reading, there is not current method to root an ATT variant with lollipop.
QUESTION:
Is anyone working on this or is it never going to happen for this phone? I just got mine and have been checking in almost daily in hopes!
no root still
Still no root , i am also looking hopelessly for a root method still find none :crying:
Hi I am new to the Note 3 forum and have a Att Note 3 on NC2 and want to find out the most recent or easiest way to get root? I had a Lg G3 rooted running custom roms but it got destroyed at work so I had to get something quick that is how I ended up with a Note 3. Anyway I am having a hard time figuring out what is the correct way to get root and flash custom roms. Also any recommendations for apps, themes, roms, etc! There is a ton of info but hard to find out the exact method to root and start flashing but I want to make sure it's done right. Thanks!

here you go and before flashing any roms do some research the note 3 for att is different the bootloader is locked
Hey thanks!
That is Towelroot correct? I am just about to DL and run it but just wanted to be sure that I don't miss any steps. So I just DL and run apk right? Thanks again for the file and anyone who wants to recommend a good ROM for a Note 3 that would be great also!
No root after Towelroot on NC2 and I tried 3 times!
I used Towelroot just as I was supposed to but cant get root or install Busybox. I tried the file that I was given it didnt work and then I seen that there is a new version of Towelroot v3 but it didnt work either. I even tried to disable Knox with SU from play store after Towelroot but it can't not disable Knox. Then I used package disabler to disable Knox and it worked to disable Knox but still can't get root with Towelroot it didn't error or anything it said you should have root now but nope! What the heck am I doing wrong? I am not happy about the future of my Note 3 and I will try something else if someone could help me. My phone is weird cause it does not have a update option at all in about phone settings! Oh boy what have I bought? Seems hard to get help anymore but I guess people are busy these days. Thanks again for any help!
I believe the bootloader is locked which means you can only install tw-based custom ROMs.
According to this thread, nc2 can be rooted: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-att/general/root-lollipop-att-note-3-safestrap-t3132475

that is strange you might have a fake you could try downloading the stock files and odin flashing them and try to root agian
Thanks for your help.
I found out its a phone from a rental center that had been paid for but they do some kind of a custom edit to settings. So I will probably be able to get it rooted thru my pc just not around it right now. I am not real happy about the fact it isn't completely stock cause like I said there is no option to update in the settings at all. Anyway I will have to wait until I get back home or find another route to root or at least update to lollipop! Thanks and if you are able to help me with this issue it would be greatly appreciated!
