Can someone explain or link me to somewhere where it does explain how to switch to NE6. Also will I have to root to upgrade because if I do there will be no point of upgrading and using towelroot

All you have to do is download the N900TUVUDNE6 Firmware from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SM-N900T&pcode=TMB#firmware. Then, connect your phone to your computer and open Odin software. Flash though AP. After a few minutes, it's done and voila! This will not change your Knox status from 0x0. Then use Towelroot v2 to root your phone. Its a very easy install and click app. and you are done.

I was hoping to avoid Odin if at all possible not because I don't know what I'm doing but because I'm a very cautious and have only rooted one other phone with odin. Also I noticed NF1 is on Kies will that work with towelroot?

ok sorry to ask but just to be sure, if i had NF1 and did the downgrade it will NOT change my knox from 0x0 to 0x1?

Worked fine for me... I had to disable lookout mobile security first however. Edit: Knox is 0x0

Interesting , it didn't work for me and my wife (tmobile note 3) and others. I'm not sure why unless with v2 nb4 firmware was included.

I hope he does a v3 soon.


NF1 come on down......:highfive:

Gotcha.

I just want root. I really don't want to trip knox because I know my luck and the CS reps will check before i do the jump program to note 4. Because thats all i really envision me getting anyways. G3 and the oppo .....meh.

Yeah, I traded root for nf1 volte and while I don't regret it I don't want to flash ne6 baseband. And I'm still 0x0 for the 5 days I was rooted.
