Bumping not allowed.
Plus if you flash anything custom, it will trigger the knox counter whichvoids warranty.
All I can say is, if you dont care about warranty, flash ozcan v5.2 or hassan rom.
If you care about warranty, wait

Well if you can see that method is for i9505. Towelroot wont work with an i9500.
So no towelroot, no root access, no root acces, no mobile odin, no mobile odin, no flashing thus ultimately no i9505 custom rom method.
Plus those files are specifically for i9505.
And you cannot flash a i9505 kernel on i9500

Well if that worked i9500 wouldve been equally popular as compared to its brother i9505.
There is minimal developement because of the restrictions and limitations on our "octa-core"

Hello all!
I just flashed the SM-N900W8 KitKat update through Odin, and I am still on Knox 0x0. I really want to try out CM11 and see how fast KitKat can fly on the Note 3!
I have gotten confused with the multiple threads for rooting and how to keep Knox 0x0, I'd like a bit of clarification. If I use CF-Root, can I keep 0x0?
Simply put, is it currently possible to flash CM11 on my SM-N900W8 and retain 0x0?
Finally, I have a genuine Samsung S-View cover. Is there some way to emulate the functions of the S-View case on AOSP?
Thanks!

Using CF root will trip KNOX, but also installing a custom ROM (you want CM) will trip it anyway if you managed to root without 0x1
General answer is no though.
You can use Hatdroid S-Vew Pro if you decide to flash CM for your S-View cover though.

Well it can yes, however you still need to be rooted to use it. If you wanna root and keep 0x0 you need to be on MJ1/MJ2

I just pointed that out because I've read a lot of posts saying custom roms can't be installed 0x0. But it's wrong information, yes it can. (For now you just need to have your phone rooted before MJ3 knox 0x0)
See what I quoted about your post. CF-Auto Root will trip Knox, but if he/she find a way to root his/her phone keeping Knox cool, it's also possible to install cunstom rom.
So to OP: CF-Auto Root will trip knox and to install roms while keeping knox 0x0 you need root. So no luck for now.
There isn't many (if any left) that have lower than MJ6/MJ7 with their Notes.

I have a Telus SM-N900W8, I think it's unlocked? I see in the development forum, there was an update today for CWM for the SM-N900W8 with the KitKat source. Does that mean I can flash that straight from KitKat? Or should I downgrade to 4.3?
SM-N900W8 users are lucky in the fact that we can downgrade to 4.3 with no issues! I've sorta realized I'm going to trip Knox regardless haha. All I want to do now is make sure I don't brick.

You are one of the lucky ones (if yours is the Canadian or Mexican model, the w8 can upgrade and downgrade without any issues). - you can upgrade straight to KK yeah and then if you dislike it and have the said models you can go back to 4.3 without issue
Awesome! The thread I was talking about is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2454079 I don't know of you have any advice on how I should proceed with this or not, should I downgrade to 4.3 and flash the cwm update from today for the SM-N900W8, or can it be flashed safely from KK?

CWM by Chenglu from that thread works on KK also, you can upgrade - you'll have to seek out the thread on how to upgrade on the w8 though, @polish_pat wrote one and it's in this section iirc

No way to do that directly. HOWEVER for N900 it seems to be possible to reset knox flag and downgrade - look after the relevant threads around!

As long as the fault will not stop you from doing it - for instance if the USB connector is no longer working you will not be able to get that back

Secondly if I root and then flash my knox gets tripped, if I flash another ROM does the counter keep increasing or just stays to 0x1?

remember rooting with cf autoroot will trip ur knox counter to 0x1, meaning your warranty will be gone. use towelroot method instead.

Don't suggest towelroot if your not willing to test it yourself ? That's like asking someone to brick their phone intentionally ?
If you won't do it don't suggest someone to experiment for you

My phone is not in warrenty period.Its finished just before 2 days. So I am thinking to root it. And if warranty doesn't matter it is ok to use CF Auto root? Please link me to the CF Auto root and compatible CWM recovery for S4 i9500.

You shouldn't run into any problems just flash with odin and once flash is complete do a nandroid backup before flashing a new custom rom

Hi Guys,
I have a new Note 3 (SM-9005) and wanted a definitive answer about triggering KNOX 0x1.
Is it possible for me to root without triggering KNOX?
I am not bothered about Custom ROMS at the moment or Recoveries. Just want ROOT.
My FW\SW details are;
AP: N9005XXUFNF4
CP: N9005XXUFNF2
CSC: N9005OXAFNF4
Any help greatly appreciated.
