I don't have it I guess. I did that, and it says "No results found", so I went ahead and installed 6.0.4.4, booted into recovery, did a back up, and when I went to reboot I still get the fix root message. I mean when you select Reboot system, and then the next screen shows, and there are about six rows of "NO", then one "YES - Fix Root su/system/ux/bin" or something like that, and then two more "NO"s. Should I select to fix root? I selected "NO", and then I ran Root checker after it rebooted, and it passed with correct root access.

Look on the Web to really get an idea of what it is and check it out http://sammyhub.com/2013/10/10/galaxy-note-3-reactivation-lock/
with what I read and understand if it was activated you wouldn't have to basically have to sign back into samsung account so what I am going to be on the safe side is remove my Samsung account all together cause u have to be signed in to have it working so pressing yes to fix root shouldn't be a problem at all

OK. What does happen if we fix it? Sorry to keep asking, but I hate having settings to be able to choose, and not know what they do. I mean if you say ignore that's fine, but why is it there to begin with if we don't need it? Also from a previous post they said they were going to remove the Samsung account to be safe. Well I have my Samsung account set up (did it before ODIN and stuff). Should I remove it too?

Why not flash official firmware with Odin and reroot?

What do you mean the back up didn't stay on the SD card? I'm on 6.0.4.4, and did a backup to SD card, and it stayed there. I know you have a choice in recovery to pick internal or external. Are you sure you didn't pick internal? How could it change from external to internal by itself?

Hey Chad this is working for n900-t
worth a shot man seems pretty universal

boot looping fix by doing the following:

(I would backup your efs partition before doing this, just for completeness sake)

Install Stock firmware via Odin,

Install TWRP 2.6.3.2 via odin, rebooted to recovery

Do an "adb shell" when phone is in recovery mode to run commands via TWRP

From the ADB shell: Wiped the EFS partition with the following command:

mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p12
mkdir /efs
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /efs

Factory Reset

Then... reboot to system

When I did the backup everything went great calculated md5 at the end, no errors. when I attempted a restore after a failed zip Flash I went to restore the backup on the external card. the clockwork folder was there and nothing was in the folder.. the internal SD card everything was as usual and the backup was there as I created 2 backups in the different locations as I wasn't sure what was exactly working in that regard..

I made a backup last night to sd card and I went into the recovery now that I read that it would not be visible but I have not the problem

You cant restore twrp backups with cwm and vice versa...this has never been possible. And dude there are warnings all over the place NOT to restore from twrp..to save your self further grief read..read...and read again before doing anything to your device.

Good thing you asked about restoring twrp with cwm.

Not sure which device you have but as someone mentioned stock firmware is out...probably your best bet.

Android 4.3 automatically change /system/xbin/su permissions from 6755 to 755.
It does not matter, su is a daemon running with root privileges.
