No, locked bootloader on that model. There used to be SamFail for root, but I believe it's been patched by Samsung through firmware updates.
Ok, thanks, I already have it rooted through samfail from when I first got it. (I never update unless it is buying a new phone) I was just hoping i could get twrp after so long. Thanks

Hey!
I can't seem to get the OTA updates. I rooted and unlocked the bootloader, do you think that has to do with it? I've read several people that say they've gotten such updates, but I've been using the phone for two weeks now and I haven't received not even one.
EDIT: Already tried unroot and flashing the original recovery. None worked.

Are you using XT1063? I am using XT1063 and I too didn't get any updates yet. I haven't unlocked the bootloader yet.

Yep, that's my model number. I wonder if it's because it's the global model?

Just speculating. But apparently one needs to unroot and re-flash the stock recovery menu in order to get OTA updates.

I haven't rooted or unlocked my bootloader. Did you mean that I have to reflash the stock firmware even though I haven't changed anything and using the phone with the original firmware?
XT1064

Hi recently few members oriented me about the note 3 att version issues when trying to add a new port to it. I read a little and now i am looking for recommendations to get the best (fastest, clean, uptodate) por for my phone. Opinion recommendations are welcome. I am looking for something stable.
If the n900a is running a 4.3 or newer bootloader, the bootloader is locked which means twrp cannot be installed to the phone and the phone will only run custom roms that can be flashed with safestrap or possibly flash fire.

I think is running the old version. I checked the AP and it ends in OC2
With oc2, the bootloader is locked.

and there is a way out of this? i cant really be sure some posts says you cant soe post there are ways to get something up
Nope, I know of no way around the locked bootloader. Same situation exists for the AT&T Samsung s4 which also has a locked bootloader.
I have never seen a post where someone can run twrp or cwm on an at&t s4 or note 3 with a locked bootloader.
Ohh well there goes my hope i guess i cant do anything. Any other kind of modification i can do to this phone?
You can root to remove bloatware. You can also use safestrap to flash some custom ROMs. Look in the development thread for ROMs that work with a locked bootloader. Here's an example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786666

Do you have a link to any tutorials showing how to root a n900a without needing TWRP? All the guides I am seeing are not n900a specific or tie-in custom ROM flashing as well which is obviously not applicable in this case.

It would help, but I'm already on 5.0 OC2. Is is even possible to root at this point?
It only takes 10 minutes to Odin back to 4.4.4, which can be rooted.

Then I highly recommend the AryaMod ROM. Insanely fast and the battery lasts forever.

I haven't seen this posted yet, but it looks like that Chainfire has an auto-root available for the T-Mobile variant of the Galaxy S8 now. My model from T-Mobile shows SM-G950U.
Link => https://autoroot.chainfire.eu
More info => http://wccftech.com/root-galaxy-s8-cf-auto-root/
I tried earlier today. It fails authentication.
I'm confused: are you sure this is for Snapdragon? Triangle away clears Knox warranty void flag?

Does it just not allow you to flash it?

Right
Cf-autoroot will not work. It got automatically built with the other versions. You need an unlocked bootloader to use it. Right now there is no way to root, none.
Hi guys I got this old lg d415 from my cousin and Wana install some roms on it since I'm a noob on this device I need some help regarding what to do unlock bootloader or what .... I see that d415 has a unlocked bootloader or no ?
Its bootloader is already unlocked just root and flash twrp. kingroot to root and flashify to flash the recovery seem easiest. *Just make sure to update to LP beforehand. here's a link for recovery. You may be able to get a more updated version of the recovery off the twrp site. Also I suggest using the most recent lineage build. lineage

Ypu wrong you have to unlock before flashing unless you are planning on bricking your device. You first have to root it and then flash laf with zeros u lock bootlosder, flash recocery , thenflash rom
Please don't tell people stuff you don't know about. The T-Mobile variant comes with its bootloader already unlocked. Also there is no laf to mess with.

I coasted by for months not upgrading my note 8 because I heard bad things about pie on note 8. Well this morning I accidentally hit install now instead of backing out of it. Can I downgrade back to the final last version of oreo stock firmware? Here's my software info.
Can I and if so how to downgrade to tmobile note 8 oreo? https://imgur.com/gallery/puzXavA

I don't have the "how to" answer for you. However, since you aren't on AT&T's locked bootloader, you can downgrade to any stock ROM you like. In either case, backing up your data, is a must.

You can only downgrade if you use the same bootloader version you're on bootloader version 5 so you cannot try to flash any bootloader version below 5 it must be 5 or above! @Anonymously_Unknown is incorrect when he stated your bootloader isn't locked because your bootloader is locked unless you have the F version which you don't have. You have the American version not the international F version. Also you need to use the newest version of Odin available.
Thanks for the clarification
