Confirmed and working great on my AT&T Note 3

Does not trip the knox counter

No factory reset, no wiping data.

Easy as one click root.

Also I went through the steps. It says nothing about putting phone in download mode. It says load program on computer...click debugging on device..connect phone to computer..let drivers install..click root..and your done. No odin or anything..hmmm!

Just a few questions for you b0Ne83:

1) Apparently you used the N9006 application?

2) Does this trip the knox counter?

3) And, does it erase all your data after rooting?

Thanks bro!

I've rooted a lot of devices and this was by far the easiest. Nothing to it really. Just had to figure out how to put the note 3 in debugging mode (which you press about phone 7 times or something like that )

That is GREAT news that the knox counter is not tripped as Samsung and the amazing Chainfire state it is totally NOT reversible. Which means your phone's warranty is void and you won't be able to upgrade to any future official update ever again. Here's a link to a good article on it.

As for mine it reads official not custom as my phone is still stock. I'm treading lightly as you will understand if you click my link and read the short article...

    Take a pill, both of you. Thread cleaned.

    In that note, censorship isn't what we do. What we do is provide a clean, friendly environment for development related discussion. Threads that stay from the original intent get cleaned, as does rude, disrespectful comments.

    Let's keep this thread on topic.
    Thanks.

    You get every answer you want except for the question you asked; so can you root 4.4.2 with Kingo Root or not? It really is a simple yes or no question that results in simple yes or no answer.

    Thanks,

    Hmm. The links to the older 1.1.18 version of Kingo are no longer up. Anyone have an alternate DL link? 1.2.0 is stalling on " Checking device for root" for me on NB4.

    Like the post above, are people not able to receive the OTA 4.4.2 update successfully because they have once rooted using the Kingo Root method?

    Taking a look in the 442 discussion thread this oddly is what everyone's talking about. Including THIS reply which seems to answer your question spot on...

    Updated to 4.4.2 successfully with rooted NB4.

    I was on NB4 rooted with Kingo 1.18. No custom recovery, just a simple root. Had SuperSU, ES File Explorer and Titanium Backup installed (that required root). Had bunch bloatware (AT&T and Sumsung apps) frozen using Titanium. I unfroze At&T Software Update, FW Upgrade, and Local FOTA. Enabled SuperSU survival mode, then proceeded with the upgrade with no issues.

    Things to note, I did loose root after 4.4.2 update. I never flashed any custom rom or leaked rom on this phone. On rooted NB4, the boot screen said Custom, now it simply show Samsung Galaxy Note 3 logo. I did NOT have to uninstall root before applying 4.4.2 update.

    So you DO NOT need to uninstall kingo 1.18 NB4 root before the update, those of you with custom recovery, safestrap etc maybe running into other issues unrelated to root causing the update to fail.
