How to root samsung note 4 SM-N910C on android 6.0.1? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Recently I used odin to flash Russian marshmallow on my note 4 SM-N910C. I also flashed TWRP successfully.
I tried the usual rooting method with cf-autoroot but I got into bootloops. also I tried flashing the spacex kernel but the device didn't start up at all.
Now that I tried everything I know, is there any method to root it?
I had to go back to 5.1.1 and wait for rooting method for 6.0.1.
Any help will be appreciated.

Flash the SuperSU zip from TWRP? Do that.

Hate to ask this random question here, but I'm currently downloading the Polish xeo mm files to flash in odin. I have found the twrp 3.0.2 tar on Google. Is that compatible with MM universally after 3.0? Or is there a different 3.0.2 for LP and MM?

Yes that's it. I have a strange issue though. If i flash MM manuall from the poland version......i can get that twrp to work.....if i take the OTA to MM from the poland Lollipop..... Then that twrp wont work......the reason this is an issue is because the OTA MM is faster and more fluid on my device than the odin tar......why idk. This is a strange case lol.

CF (N910c) did work for me, but after few days mysteriously stopped working. No SU binary could be found and therefore no root . Then i decided to root again but unsuccessfully. CF does what is supposed to do and after a phone reboots no root, so i tried this way and it worked: Flashed TWRP tar from odin, than flashed superSU zip from twrp. phone rebooted 2-3 times (this is normal) then when it booted, still did not work until i rebooted it once more manually and screen "android is upgrading" appeared for a few sec. After that everything works as is supposed to.
I have found this video on YouTube (Spanish but it contains download links in video description) and detailed explanation how to do it.

Help after 4.4.2 upgrade

I was running X Note on 4.3 and decided to upgrade to xnote 8 . I downloaded the official polish 4.4 firmware and followed the instructions and every thing seemed fine, I lost my TWRP recovery so i decided to reinstall my custom recovery. But now i have done that my phone is stuck in a boot loop. What have i done wrong?
I have tried the chain fire method and the Goomanager method but none are working?
My phone is up and running on stock 4.4.2 but i cant install any custom recoverys. What can i do?
Probably using the wrong version of custom recovery. Grab the latest CWM by chenglu (.06 ) or the newest TWRP and you should be OK
I have tried both of the latest Cwm and TWRP and even cf auto but it still won't root my phone

Hi mate
I flashed the the KK firmware from sammobile with the update boot loader ticked. Booted back into the stock rom fine but what ever method i use to flash a custom recovery just fails. When i tried the Goomanager method my phone boot loops and i have to re flash the phone again. I have tried both the latest versions of TWRP and CWM. Never had any problems like this before. When i 1st got the phone i did the chain fire method which takes less than 30 seconds but this also doesn't work know.
I took the phone back to carphone warehouse this morning and they have sent it off for repair. Hopefully ill get a note 3 back running 4.3 and ill wait for the official firmware:good:

SM-N910C Rooting Questions

Hi Guys,
I ordered SM-N910C (Note4) and I should be able to received them sometime nextweek. Now, being said, rooting the device came into my mind .
1. SM-N910C (open line/ not carrier lock) can be rooted as long as its Boothloader unlocked , right? - if boothloader lock, is there a way to unlock it at this point?
2. Once I rooted and Installed TWRP/CWM, can I restore them to default/ Stock recovery ?
3. Once rooted, do I still get update on Samsung Apps via Samsung store?
4. Once rooted, Can i still update the firmware as soon as Samsung released new version such as 5.0 (understand that I need to manually upgrade it) - I think I read somewhere that if Note 4 is rooted, you will not be able to upgrade to 5.0 even doing it manually, im not sure if it is 100% correct.
5. Once rooted, other samsung apps will still work , right? such S Healh, S Voice, etc (all N4 feature).. is there any feature/ samsung app that stops working as soon as we root the device?
6. I know Note4 camera is really good, but I found this site, that we can still boost Note4 camera by replacing the camera apk, http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-boost-galaxy-note-4-camera-performance-using-mod-1473882 .. anybody already tested this ? wondering how it performs..
7. Planning to root it using CF Auto Root.
I understand that rooting N4 will trip Knox (let me know if there are new procedure that will not trip knox).
Thanks
1.You can root without touching bootloader.
2.Yes
3.Yes
4.Yes. but you have to flash stock ROM manually with odin (Never heard you can't flash ROM with odin bcoz of rooted status)
5.There may be some app got broken like S health,screen mirror and some banking app etc . but almost have FIX for it.
6.Your linked content is from XDA source only, search in theme and app section
7. My preferred method is flash CWM/TWRP and flash SuperSU zip (CF auto differ only by keeping recovery stock, which actually have no meaning but lot limitation is there)
No method there to root without tripping knox
PS : This topic goes to Q&A NOT in development
1.i don't think any note4's BL is Locked...or if there is any there will be unlockers soon.
2.yes, with odin.
3.yes.
4.you can update it with Odin.where do you Read it??! (if there was any problem you can use Custom Roms..Or Deodexed Lollipop Roms and Flash Them via Recovery)
5.i know if you root New Samsung Devices With CF-Root Method and others like it KNOX Will Trip...its mean All Security things that Use Knox will not work anymore Like Billing Services...go to settings/about phone and see them.
6......i don't know too
7.see 5.
i didn't root my N910C too and waiting for new procedure

I;ve been looking for CF-Auto-Root file for Note 4 SM-N910C, and I only found this.
SM-N910C (Thailand, Exynos): CF-Auto-Root-trelte-treltexx-smn910c.zip
I am from Philippines , do you think above file will be compatible? What will be the effect? and I am not sure where my SM-N910C came from as I also saw bunch of SM-N910C from different country.
Thanks.
Hi guys do you know if we can expect a knox 0x0 root method, like towelroot for our notes?
Not at this point, definitely rooting will trip Knox 0x1, at least for now.

now that i'm thinking....i can't wait anymore for Another method..i'm going for CF Root too.
Please update us when you already rooted it and how it goes. My note 4 will arrive next week.
The cf-auto-root I found is Thailand version of SM-N910C, I'm afraid that it might not compatible with other version SM-N910C, or we encounter issues (different langauage?)
Anybody who tried this on any SM-N910S?

download official .tar.md5 ROM file from sammobile or if you have one use it.open it with Winrar.there is recovery.img , extract it.
make a tar file with this img file...you can do it with linux or a batch file in windows like: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446269
HI guys,
After rooting, would you recommend installing TWRP or just use stoxk recovery? And what is the advantage of TWRP over stock recovery?

With TWRP or other recovery, you can flash custom ROMs and MODs. That is the only purpose of it.

Lost root on marshmallow after security update.

I have international snapdragon SM-G900F mm 6.0.1 rooted with chainfire. Some damn security update came and I have lost root. I cannnot root it back with same method (odin+chainfire).
What to do now? I dont have backup of course
Flash odin rom on top of everything then root again?

I had same issues with losing root when i flashed the cf-root file direct through odin. Best thing to do is flash Twrp recovery through odin, then flash the superuser file via Twrp. Thats best way for permanant root. Good luck

Thanks for confirming. I stumbled on the link just trying to see if I could find some eta on the update.
Just updated. Now time to root.
I saw this on T-Mobile's site a couple of days ago, but I'm on the fence about updating. I updated my Note 4 (910T) when MM came out and I'm used to it, but they removed the ability to alter the quick settings toggles (Samsung disabled system ui tuner) so you can no longer add hidden features like mobile data or VPN. While I can grudgingly live without it on the Note 4, I find it too handy to do without on the 817T. Unless someone finds a way around this, I'm staying put for the time being.
Just updated my T817T to MM.. thanks for the info. Updated and rooted as well with supersu 2.74

How did you root your T817T with MM? Did you already have TWRP and it was retained with the update and you just flashed SuperSu?
I flashed twrp 3.0.0.2 for t810 it works for marshmallow and then I flashed super su 2.74.
It was not retained after update. I flashed it via Odin again

I have no issues with xposed .works perfect for me with wanam's xposed V86 for MM
Success!
Since I had installed TWRP and rooted, I could not update to MM. I re-flashed back to stock 5.1.1 with Odin and then was able to update to MM.
After the update I flashed the T815 TWRP with Odin (make sure you don't auto-reboot and boot into TWRP right after flashing to make it stick). Then I flashed the SuperSu 2.76 ZIP from TWRP.
So I now have a stock rooted 6.0.1 ROM. Everything seems to work fine for me. I can use LTE and even enable the mobile hotspot.

Well, if you want to try old nougat roms, search for deluxe rom 7.0 or elite rom 7.0 (that was the name iirc), but whatever old version you use, be sure that your bootloader version and modem versions are the same (in case rom installs modem too- like in alexndr's devbase), if they aren't same then you will get no signals and baseband unknown.. Good luck
Warning : some old roms caused imei unknown/efs corruption (i.e : superman rom iirc)

You can't install custom roms through odin, custom roms can only be flashed in twrp.
You can only flash stock roms (having the same bootloader version as one already installed on your phone or higher) in odin.

I don't play games on phone lol, but pokemon go shouldn't be detecting magisk's system-less root.. ofcourse I'm not updated on it though.
For a fully non-rooted or system-less rooted, and debloated rom, use alexndr's devbase for max compatibility and stability. You need to clean flash stock rom (with matching bootloader version as already in your phone or higher) in odin first. Then reboot phone in download mode again to flash twrp in odin, then boot directly into twrp from dl mode (DON'T ACCEPT SYSYEM MODIFICATIONS PROMPT IN TWRP !! AND TICK DON'T ASK AGAIN) and format data > type yes under wipe option. And stay in twrp..
Then go to alexndr's devbase thread and download the devbase rom zip from the androidfilehost page CORRESPONDING TO YOUR CURRENT BOOTLOADER VERSION and flash it in twrp. Then flash latest magisk in twrp.. and boot into system ..
After that you should have a systemlessly rooted debloated stock rom. Any game or software that doesn't checks hardware knox tripping status should work per my knowledge. If you follow the exact steps above and still that game/app isn't working that means its either checking knox hardware status or bypassing magisk's safetynet protection.

You need to restart because twrp may not be in systemless root mode.
Also, to see your bootloader binary version, go to download mode and it will say alongside it in like
B:6 K:7 S;7
Where B is the bootloader version number. Good luck.
