I don't know about you, but SuperOneClick's Allow Non Market Apps feature didn't work for me. When I went to setting>applications there was no check box for Unknown sources present. I got it by using Root Explorer and SQLight Editor (both on the market)
1. Use "RootExplorer" take you to
/data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db/settings
2. click on the "Value" colum of "force_only_market_apps"
3. Press "menu" button and select "Edit Field"
4. Change "1" to "0", then save.
Without even doing a factory reset or just a regular reboot you should have an unknown sources box available in your settings>applications.
That's not how it works. When you use the option in SuperOneClick, it enables that option for you, even if it doesn't show up in settings>applications.
Thanks. When using SuperOneClick I was able to root, but I wan't able to allow Unknown Sources through Settings->Applications.
Now it works!
thanks, sideloading didnt work for me using aroot.
i rooted using SOC a while ago, and DLed the official PSN apk yesterday since it's not on the US market, and installed it by clicking the apk in file manager with no problem.
Thank you so much! This finally worked! Using aRoot/GladEnable/SuperOneClick , all of them SAID it was enabled but it clearly wasn't ... when I navigated to the db field it was still at '1' .. thanks for this, finally it's working
i am on gingerblur, and when clicking the menu button i don't get a dialog to do anything. Maybe a bug of the theme?
So i can't use root explorer to do this, but anyway this is useful since now i know the database name and can do it by hand...
For those that want to do this by hand:
-connect your phone via usb, enable usb debugging
-from a command line, go where you have adb installed (android sdk or many scripts on this forum)
-run adb shell, then su. accept the message on the phone if prompted.
-type: sqlite3 /data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db "UPDATE settings SET value=0 WHERE name='force_only_market_apps';" then enter, and you are done

I tried this and it did not work just said sqlite3 not found. Type exit and type exit then type sqlite3 /data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db "UPDATE settings SET value=0 WHERE name='force_only_market_apps';" it just locked up terminal. If I type sqlite3 before adb shell it finds it.
Used root explorer and copied settings.db to sdcard. Once there used as a disk drive on computer. Edited it with navcat for sqlite and saved it. Then disconnected it for computer used root explorer and copied it back to data and overwrote existing file. Rebooted and all was fine.
I did everything, but I am not able to edit the field...
"Thanks

Thanks for this instruction...
Even though this thread is a little old it did help me and therefore want to add my two cents worth to possible help others who may be having issues. I have a rooted Motorola Flipside.
I purchased SQL Lite Editor from the market and was able to change the value directly in it. Here's how:
1. Download and install SQL Lite Editor from the market.
2. Start SQL Lite Editor to display a list of the applications installed on your device.
3. Look for the application titled Settings Storage (and in smaller print underneath it will display "com.motorola.android.providers.settings".
4. Select Settings.db.
5. Select Settings.
6. In the list of columns scroll down to item #70, "force_only_market_apps" and select it.
7. Click the shortcut menu on your device and select Edit Record.
8. Change the value from 1 to 0 then save and exit SQL Lite Editor.
9. Go to Settings > Applications. Unknown Sources will be visible and you will be able to check it.
Hope this helps anyone else who has issues.
Regards,
Greg

Hi guys,
could anyone explain me please how to enable usb charging with Pershoot´s Kernel (boot-cm_2636.4_ux-oc-xtra-vfpv3-d16_fp-101811)?
I rly don´t get this:
adb shell echo 1 > /sys/class/power_supply/battery/force_usb_charging
Thank you very much.
Sure bud,
The script you posted is meant to be run in a command prompt using the tablet's ADB interface. To access this you need the Android SDK (that is the tool for app development) installed on your PC. You can look up how to do this all over the interweb.
To make your life easier though, download a terminal emulator app from the Market, there are plenty of free ones. Once you've done that open it and run the script as follows
su
echo 1 > /sys/class/power_supply/battery/force_usb_charging
The "su" command gives you root access just as "adb shell" would in command prompt.
The catch is the script is not persistent after reboot. So you will need to run it again if you reboot the tab. This doesn't really bother me cause I only use it for charging in the car and it takes like 30 seconds to type in the script.
Enjoy!
Thank you very much!
Now it´s working.

how do you make it stick ?
I ask this question in another forum and the result was, it´s not possible (maybe wrong).
By the way, after I enable USB charge, my notebook can´t find my Tab anymore.

I found a way to very easily get it running.
download terminal emulator.
Go to system preference of terminal emulator and there is an option to enter initial command to after you start terminal emulator.
so just type in:
su - root
echo 1 > /sys/class/power_supply/battery/force_usb_charging
Whenever you start teminal emulator, it will enable usb charging
I use this app to NTSF http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13337600&postcount=6
I'm trying to control my Nexus 4 using adb commands from computer, but when I type in adb shell and then su on command prompt I can't click "yes" on the dialog box to enable superuser permissions. How can I do this?
For anyone having the same problem, I found a solution. You'll need USB Debugging for most of this.
-Download a program called MyMobiler to your PC
-Connect your phone via usb and use MyMobiler on the pc toolbar to install the app on the phone
-You'll need to grant superuser permissions if your phone is rooted, so in order to do that you'll need to use adb commands from the Android SDK. Open up a command prompt in the platform-tools folder once you've downloaded SDK
-To get past the lock screen use commands from this link. For me (I don't have a pin or anything, I just needed to get out of the lock screen), I typed "adb shell input keyevent 22" to swipe right to the camera app and then "adb shell input keyevent 3" to hit the home button, which got me to my home screen. If you have a pin, you can type in "adb shell input text 1234" and replace 1234 with whatever your pin is
-Now you can control your screen using the commands on the link above (mainly numbers 19-23)
-If all is running correctly (and you have granted superuser permissions to let MyMobiler run on your phone), you can use the arrow keys to navigate throughout the phone
-If you have any problems, you should follow the MyMobiler start guide
I also followed this guide for help. He uses the app androidscreencast, but that didn't work for me, so I went with MyMobiler.
Samsung Galaxy Note 4 – Verizon Wireless – Permanent Root Guide

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 on Verizon updated to 5.1.1 (BPA1)
PC with Windows
Micro USB Cable
MicroSD Card
MicroSD Card Reader/USB Adapter (To Format MicroSD Card)
Step 0: Install Note 4 USB Drivers
If you haven’t done this before at some point it’s as simple as opening the Samsung Mobile Phone Drivers included with this guide.
Step 1: Backup All The Things!
Backup anything that is important to you. You should regularly be doing this anyway.
If you use Two Factor Authentication such as Google Authenticator or Lastpass’ Authenticator I highly suggest you disable this before proceeding as we will be factory resetting your device potentially locking you out of some accounts or making them significantly more difficult to recover access too.
Step 1.5: Disable Encryption
Disable both device and sd card encryption.
Step 2: Factory Reset
Factory Reset your phone and format the sd card.
Step 3: Preparing The Device
Follow the directions below to navigate your device’s settings’ menus to change the required settings.
Settings > Security > Reactivation Lock | Disabled! This is very important!
Settings > Security > Unknown sources | Enabled
Settings > Developer Options > USB debugging | Enabled
Settings > Developer Options > Verify app via USB | Enabled
Move the file NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_105203.apk included with this guide to your phone’s download folder. When plugged in with a usb cable to your computer it’s usually located at “SAMSUNG-SM-N910V\Phone\Download”.
Step 4: Preparing Your PC
Run minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.3.1_setup.exe included with this guide.
Pay attention to what directory this installs to. It’s usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.
Step 4.1: Copying Files
samsung_unlock_n4-fix & BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip included with this guide need to be copied (the actual files, don’t create shortcuts) to the install folder for ADB (Usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.). These files must be in the same folder as adb.exe
Step 5: ADB & The Unlocker
Your phone should have been connected already with a usb cable to your computer. We need to verify your phone is found by adb. Open adb.exe located in the folder from Step 4. Once the window (cmd.exe) opens a command line interface saying
Code:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.10586]
(c) 2015 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
Type in the following command: adb devices
Which should return the following
Code:
List of devices attached
123a12ab device
The 123a12ab is made up. Yours will be specific to your device. If you see something listed like the above adb is working. Now on to the next command to move the unlocker to the phone.
Step 5.1: Send Unlocker to Phone with adb
Type the following command: adb push samsung_unlock_n4-fix /data/local/tmp/
If you get an error it’s because you a) typo b) file isn’t in the folder with adb.exe c) your phone is locked/screen is off d) usb debugging isn’t turned on in settings > developer options.
Step 6: Kingroot For Temp Root
Keep the adb window accessible you will need to be able to switch to it and enter in the commands below quickly as temp root is unstable. Be ready to copy or type them quickly.
On your phone open the app My Files. Click on Device storage > Download > NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_105203.apk to install Kingroot. After it installs click close, not open. Close all running apps.
Step 6.5: Work Quick With Precision
Open Root Checker so it’s ready to go. Don’t Check yet. Hit the home button and then open Kingroot. In Kingroot scroll down and click the button to start temp root. If you don’t see root successful after a minute or two or four you may need to restart your phone and repeat the process of opening root checker and then Kingroot.
Once you do see successful root click the multi tasking button on the phone to switch over to root checker. Temp root is buggy and may crash. If it does repeat this process again with getting temp root and opening the apps in the correct order.
If you make it into root checker via the multi tasking button it will ask you to grant it root access, click yes, check for root. If it says you have root go to the adb window and type these comamnds in quickly before temp root causes your phone to crash.
adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp/
chmod 777 samsung_unlock_n4-fix
chown root.root samsung_unlock_n4-fix
./samsung_unlock_n4-fix
The device will reboot. After reboot, shut the phone down by removing only the battery and usb cable.
Step 7: One More Time
Put the battery and cable back in and turn the phone back on. Now repeat Step 5 & 6.5 but skip Step 5.1 and Step 6. After you send the last adb command and it reboots again pull the battery, sd card, and usb cable. Keep the sd card out! Until you plug it into your computer and format it. It doesn’t matter when you format it if it’s not reporting the correct size. This will be fixed by putting it back into your phone AFTER you format it on your pc and formatting it on the phone.
Step 8: Temp Root A Third Time
If it isn’t already installed go ahead and install Super-Sume Pro.
Close all apps.
Open Super-Sume Pro, click the home button, and open Kingroot.
In Kingroot apply temp root. Click the multi tasking button and switch over to Super-Sume Pro. When it asks for Root grant it. Click the big blue button and follow the instructions. It may take a minute or two. Shut the phone down after it’s done.
Step 9: Odin
Turn the phone on and enter download mode by pressing and holding volume down + power + home. When it’s comes to the screen and says “Downloading” you’re ready to proceed. Open the file included with this guide Odin3 v3.09.exe. In Odin3 where it says Files [Download] click AP and navigate to the folder with this guide and select/open the file twrp-3.0.2-0-trltevzw.tar.md5 and then click Start. Once it finishes it will enter a black screen to reboot. Press and hold these buttons immediately to enter TWRP , volume up + power + home.
Step 10: TWRP & ADB Sideloading
Swipe to allow changes in TWRP. Click Advanced and then ADB Sideload. Swipe to start adb. On your computer open adb.exe from Step 4. On the command line interface in adb.exe
Type the following command: adb devices
Verify your device is there and says sideload.
Type the following command: adb sideload BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip
The phone will install Super SU, after it is finished we will install the new Kernel before rebooting.
You may need to re-enter ADB Sideload on the phone.
Type the following command: adb devices
Verify your device is there and says sideload.
Type the following command: adb sideload Emotion-TW-5.1.1-nightly-r21-RC1-SM-N910P.zip
Reboot the phone.
If boots into 5.1.1 open root checker and verify you have root.

Thank you for posting this so clearly! Would Samsung "smart switch" be a viable tool to use for backing up all my apps/app data, home screen setup, etc. before rooting, and still work to import the data after rooting?

That kernel flash is optional from what I've seen. That's just what people have been wanting on their phones

It's included in Step 10. I think you may have missed it. It's the very last step. It's also included in the Google Drive folder and torrent.
You shouldn't need to do SuperSuMe. You can use Kingroot for the whole shebang. Also, you will need a kernel for 5.1.x roms otherwise it will bootloop at the Verizon logo.

Thank you for posting this so clearly! Would Samsung "smart switch" be a viable tool to use for backing up all my apps/app data, home screen setup, etc. before rooting, and still work to import the data after rooting?

I have not used it. What I did was find every export settings/backup option in apps like nova launcher. I wrote down one time passwords for eligible accounts or disabled 2 factor Auth temporarily. I copied my SD card to my computer, along with all the files in the folders Downloads, Media, DCIM, etc. I exported my contacts and copied the file to my pc. I didn't care about any saved games so I can't help you there. Some people have success with Helium for back ups. Using the pc backup option.

The kernel is included. See comment below from the guy who said I didn't include it.
I heard kingroot sends data to China. So I don't want it on my phone longer than needed.

isnt kingroot deleted once you do a full wipe before installing a custom rom via twrp?

Correct. Though this is a guide for staying on stock rom with root and the option to change roms at a later point easily.

Required Tools/Parts/Devices
Samsung Galaxy Note 4 on Verizon updated to 5.1.1 (BPA1)
PC with Windows
Micro USB Cable
MicroSD Card
MicroSD Card Reader/USB Adapter (To Format MicroSD Card)
Step 0: Install Note 4 USB Drivers
If you haven’t done this before at some point it’s as simple as opening the Samsung Mobile Phone Drivers included with this guide.
Step 1: Backup All The Things!
Backup anything that is important to you. You should regularly be doing this anyway.
If you use Two Factor Authentication such as Google Authenticator or Lastpass’ Authenticator I highly suggest you disable this before proceeding as we will be factory resetting your device potentially locking you out of some accounts or making them significantly more difficult to recover access too.
Step 1.5: Disable Encryption
Disable both device and sd card encryption.
Step 2: Factory Reset
Factory Reset your phone and format the sd card.
Step 3: Preparing The Device
Follow the directions below to navigate your device’s settings’ menus to change the required settings.
Settings > Security > Reactivation Lock | Disabled! This is very important!
Settings > Security > Unknown sources | Enabled
Settings > Developer Options > USB debugging | Enabled
Settings > Developer Options > Verify app via USB | Enabled
Move the file NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_105203.apk included with this guide to your phone’s download folder. When plugged in with a usb cable to your computer it’s usually located at “SAMSUNG-SM-N910V\Phone\Download”.
Step 4: Preparing Your PC
Run minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.3.1_setup.exe included with this guide.
Pay attention to what directory this installs to. It’s usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.
Step 4.1: Copying Files
samsung_unlock_n4-fix & BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip included with this guide need to be copied (the actual files, don’t create shortcuts) to the install folder for ADB (Usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot.). These files must be in the same folder as adb.exe
Step 5: ADB & The Unlocker
Your phone should have been connected already with a usb cable to your computer. We need to verify your phone is found by adb. Open adb.exe located in the folder from Step 4. Once the window (cmd.exe) opens a command line interface saying
Code:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.10586]
(c) 2015 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
Type in the following command: adb devices
Which should return the following
Code:
List of devices attached
123a12ab device
The 123a12ab is made up. Yours will be specific to your device. If you see something listed like the above adb is working. Now on to the next command to move the unlocker to the phone.
Step 5.1: Send Unlocker to Phone with adb
Type the following command: adb push samsung_unlock_n4-fix /data/local/tmp/
If you get an error it’s because you a) typo b) file isn’t in the folder with adb.exe c) your phone is locked/screen is off d) usb debugging isn’t turned on in settings > developer options.
Step 6: Kingroot For Temp Root
Keep the adb window accessible you will need to be able to switch to it and enter in the commands below quickly as temp root is unstable. Be ready to copy or type them quickly.
On your phone open the app My Files. Click on Device storage > Download > NewKingrootV4.85_C139_B255_en_release_2016_03_29_105203.apk to install Kingroot. After it installs click close, not open. Close all running apps.
Step 6.5: Work Quick With Precision
Open Root Checker so it’s ready to go. Don’t Check yet. Hit the home button and then open Kingroot. In Kingroot scroll down and click the button to start temp root. If you don’t see root successful after a minute or two or four you may need to restart your phone and repeat the process of opening root checker and then Kingroot.
Once you do see successful root click the multi tasking button on the phone to switch over to root checker. Temp root is buggy and may crash. If it does repeat this process again with getting temp root and opening the apps in the correct order.
If you make it into root checker via the multi tasking button it will ask you to grant it root access, click yes, check for root. If it says you have root go to the adb window and type these comamnds in quickly before temp root causes your phone to crash.
adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp/
chmod 777 samsung_unlock_n4-fix
chown root.root samsung_unlock_n4-fix
./samsung_unlock_n4-fix
The device will reboot. After reboot, shut the phone down by removing only the battery and usb cable.
Step 7: One More Time
Put the battery and cable back in and turn the phone back on. Now repeat Step 5 & 6.5 but skip Step 5.1 and Step 6. After you send the last adb command and it reboots again pull the battery, sd card, and usb cable. Keep the sd card out! Until you plug it into your computer and format it. It doesn’t matter when you format it if it’s not reporting the correct size. This will be fixed by putting it back into your phone AFTER you format it on your pc and formatting it on the phone.
Step 8: Temp Root A Third Time
If it isn’t already installed go ahead and install Super-Sume Pro.
Close all apps.
Open Super-Sume Pro, click the home button, and open Kingroot.
In Kingroot apply temp root. Click the multi tasking button and switch over to Super-Sume Pro. When it asks for Root grant it. Click the big blue button and follow the instructions. It may take a minute or two. Shut the phone down after it’s done.
Step 9: Odin
Turn the phone on and enter download mode by pressing and holding volume down + power + home. When it’s comes to the screen and says “Downloading” you’re ready to proceed. Open the file included with this guide Odin3 v3.09.exe. In Odin3 where it says Files [Download] click AP and navigate to the folder with this guide and select/open the file twrp-3.0.2-0-trltevzw.tar.md5 and then click Start. Once it finishes it will enter a black screen to reboot. Press and hold these buttons immediately to enter TWRP , volume up + power + home.
Step 10: TWRP & ADB Sideloading
Swipe to allow changes in TWRP. Click Advanced and then ADB Sideload. Swipe to start adb. On your computer open adb.exe from Step 4. On the command line interface in adb.exe
Type the following command: adb devices
Verify your device is there and says sideload.
Type the following command: adb sideload BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524.zip
The phone will install Super SU, after it is finished we will install the new Kernel before rebooting.
You may need to re-enter ADB Sideload on the phone.
Type the following command: adb devices
Verify your device is there and says sideload.
Type the following command: adb sideload Emotion-TW-5.1.1-nightly-r21-RC1-SM-N910P.zip
Reboot the phone.
If boots into 5.1.1 open root checker and verify you have root.

Hey thanks to all devs for all that is being done to make our n4 more lovable. I have everything set up per op. ADB sees my phone and I am able to get root. I enter all the lines of the code and get positive response on all till I get to chmod 777 samsung_unlock_n4-fix. It is in my minimal adb and fastboot folder. It is also unzipped. It all works up to there. Also have drivers installed. Thanks

What android version are you on? If you are on 4.4.4, update to lollipop and try! Also verify that your emmc starts with 15!

Good one mate...
You can also flash MultiSystem-Kernel_LP-5.1.1 by @hsbadr instead of emotion kernel!
Its SE Permissive and wont show, "Seandroid is not selinux enforcing" error during boot and very snappy!
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24415232478676428
Yes this is a very good write-up of instructions. But I too, think the flashing the kernel is worth mentioning, considering I went through all this and ended up boot looping because I did not have the kernel, ended up doing it all over again, but a lot smarter the second time around.
?If someone helps you, plz thank them?

My Super-Sume Pro is stuck on the beginning of Step 2. Is this necessary to run or can I skip out on it.
