If you want to keep root, don't update to today's MF3 OTA as it break motochopper exploit and prevents Rootkeeper from working
Some members have sacrificed themselves:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43420412&postcount=57
Anybody knows if it break Loki too?
It has been well documented that trying to ODIN back to MDL does not work and causes an immediate fail
If you wish to have the new features then run GoldenEye ROM, a fantastic i9505 MF8 based ROM that runs smooth as melted butter. It also has all latest MF3 additions such as App2SD, audio flickering and sms fix
I have been trying to tell everyone that...
DO NOT UPDATE PERIOD

If you can't root, you can't install custom recovery. Can't install custom recovery, can't loki...
If using customer recovery, I don't think the update will apply.
The question should be answered once root is achieved.

It might break motochopper, but what tells you that once another root method is found, loki will still work? that was my question
It's not going to break loki I don't think, it has KNOX but thats a seperate bootloader that allows apps to run with full security, our phone doesnt boot into Knox mode.

It was made specifically for the active. It will not run on other devices. You would have to modify the apk or make a root method off of it

Might have to do the same thing we had to do in the Motorola Atrix HD - edit some of the XML files out and then flash it though ODIN.
I just got my S4 today and updated it outside of the box. I'm now trying to root.
I know that the motochopper method is broken, but is the odin method broken?

The software simply says "PASS" and your phone is rooted.

To late Can't downgrade. You'll have to wait and be patient until a new exploit is found for the new firmware.
To boot I did the same thing. My S4 came with AMDB installed. I updated out of box to AMDL without even checking first in the parking lot of the AT&T store. Got home and luckily found AMDL was still rootable.
I have one question.... what exactly does this update do besides patch stuff because its 300+ mb? Just wondering because I had to freeze my att updater

Maybe I should put my rootable, ODINable S4 on EBAY for $2,000.00
I am currently implementing an alternate method of Rooting which I have found to be successful by means of Pre-Rooting the system.img.ext4 file. I have already released Pre-Rooted ROMs for previous models and wanted to continue this development for the Galaxy S4.
Why use this Root Method? Well the main reasons are:
- You have a complete Odin Flashable ROM Package.
- No Insecure Kernels are used or required.
- You can flash these packages on Non-Rooted devices
- The Binary Flash Counter will NOT increase when flashing these ROM Packages.
- And finally, you only have to flash one file in Odin and you have a complete firmware including Root Permissions.
What Root Package is used in these ROMs?
- Busybox 1.20.2 (Newer ROMs)
- SuperSU 1.51 (Newer ROMs)
Previously released ROMs may have an older Busybox and SuperSU package installed.
Please Note: This Root Method does not include a Custom Recovery. This is for people who only require Root Permissions. If you do require a Custom Recovery, you will need to flash this yourself separately.

Just UnZip and Flash the '.tar.md5' File in Odin.

I have my own scripts to fully automate the process and I modify the system image directly and not on the device to ensure a fully clean flashable package. I will be releasing the scripts tomorrow. I have looked at the thread you mentioned and it seems that guy has copied my layout format in some respects and changed it slightly. I have been pre-rooting rooms since the galaxy s2 so it isn't exactly a world premiere! Lol! Here are my sources and please check the thread creation dates so you know I create my own work!

Couple of questions. Is the firmware 1 or 3 part and as it a wipe rom?
I ask because I would really like to keep my apps and data without having to restore either though titanium or cwm, and if it's a 3 part is like to flash without csc to retain my current one.

Hello people, I am new to Samsung, I usually just buy a used phone to circumvent any void warranty issues (as they are cheaper I sort of self insure myself, I only got the desire new and I rooted it on the 2nd day ). My SGS4 is arriving on Tuesday and it will be new with warranty.
Could you please confirm that there is absolutely no chance what so ever to void the warranty by flashing a pre-rooted rom. I would be quite happy to use the stock rom as long as it is rooted.
I've always used HardSPL, official or unofficial (when available) S-OFF and root on my previous HTC devices and I have never ever bricked a phone.
Thank you for your help
Did you get any further with this at all? I've held off rooting for the moment but if it's going to be a while longer I will just go for it with the current one.
XXUDMI1 KNOX WARRANTY VOID - 0x1
Hi,
I am wondering if you have managed to get a worked around with your scripts of the issue that is related to "KNOX WARRANTY VOID - 0x1" in all the newer ROMs. it yes, then how I safely root my I9505 without voiding the "KNOX WARRANTY:
Thanks for your reply.
No sorry, this Knox stuff is way outta my depth. Its very secure.

There is not root for 4.4 yet. I don't doubt it will be out in the next 1 or 2 months
So, has anyone upgraded this to Kit-Kat yet? I don't think we'll ever see it from AIO.

Do you have root? I know there's a way to download and grab the zip from the phone if you have root. Otherwise the other method you suggested may work.
EDIT: Root method is easier as you just download, use file manager to get it from /cache, and then you can upload it for others. I don't know which root methods do and don't work for your device however. Logcat can be done, you'll just be looking through a lot of lines of logs possibly.

Or will an unroot even help as the security (just like knox) might be 0x1, if it works the same way, so no more updates?

Why bother?
Just wait until the firmware gets updated and then Skin releases an update to his rom and use that in ODIN to update your watch.
Even if you did update to something later than NE5 (current) then you will lose root and won't be able to re-acquire it until the developer releases it.

I don't have Skins Tizenmod on my gear. But that is the way to upgrade from now?
So I just go install Skins newest realease?
RIght now, it's just rooted, as I found an guide to it on XDA (not Skins). But should I unroot first or should I just go and install Skins Tizenmod?
Thaks in advance
Skins TizenMod is the most current firmware with all of the add-ons already baked in. The one that you used to root with was already a modified version of the official Samsung firmware. Now there may be other patches that updates might provide... such as recoveries, bootloader, etc... but based on previous incidences from Samsung just ask yourself... "Is that what I really want?"
If yes, simply download it and install it by ODIN.

Thanks every one, hope someone dump does files for us
Whoever gets the update tomorrow. PULL THR UPDATE ZIP!
If I get it I will and post it. I have ready done this from my wife's sprint edge variant.
Here is how you do it:
You have to be on the latest firmware and not rooted.
If you get the update notification.
Download it, but do not install it.
Then root your device. DO NOT WIPE IT
The update.zip is located in /data/fota/update.zip
Pull it using adb or use root Explorer to move it to the root of your SDCard and then your pc.
Please wait for someone to verify it works before flashing the update or unroot.
Unfortunately I will not be able to pull said update as I do not want to root my device. I require working Knox and other benefits.

Unfortunately I will not be able to pull said update as I do not want to root my device. I require working Knox and other benefits.

After you root you can go back to stock, then flash the latest update.zip you shared with everyone. Knox and everything will work just fine

No. I've rooted and gone back to stock. Knox and Samsung pay work for me with no issues.

Only on the Exynos S7.
We use an engineering kernel that's signed by Samsung for root, so it doesn't trip Knox.
The root method for us doesnt trigger knox.
If I could Pull the update.zip It would be a pleasure but it was Full for register when I tried.
I'll see if I can pull the file for you gentlemen and ladies. I just don't really need root so I have not put attention to the rooting method since the note 5?

Thanks for trying no matter what man!
Us AT&T users feel left out, so this would help.
