Xnote rom

So as it turns out, the Canadian variant SMN900W8 has receieved a kitkat version/mod that allows us to keep knox at 0x0 and give us a custom recovery, as well as root, through means that would normally trip Knox. I just wanted to compile a list of things that are working and doesn't trip Knox.

So far we know the following won't:

Edit 06/03/14
-Root (Through CF-ROOT)
- Custom Recovery
- Xnote 8.0
-XNote Kernel works without tripping Knox (selected in the AROMA installer) however I'm not sure if the changes are too mild to even trip knox.
- Kernels over all work; sounds and theme mods work as well. All that's left are AOSP roms.

Unconfirmed

- AOSP Roms


I'll update OP as users start reporting in.
Have any of you guys or gals tried xnote v17 yet, is it better than v15 or should I stay where I am

I rooted my phone after a month and have twrp2 installed as well as have been through many different ROMs trying to find one I was happy with. Right now I am on Tameseks CM12 lollipop with an NB7 boot loader. I did like KK 4.4.4 slim ROM.
Oh and all with Knox at 0x0
