Just wondering if anyone has figured out root for 5.1.1 yet, or if it will be possible?

I second this wholly!
Does the towelroot method work?
Towelroot doesn't work.
I've tried a whole bunch of different methods adapted from other devices but nothing works. Different bootloaders, kernels and such. I'm not a dev so my knowledge is limited but I am willing to try whatever if anyone has any ideas.
It's a shame. This is a hell of a tablet on 5.1.1. Just missing root. Don't want to downgrade but I'm mostly missing multi window for some apps that don't support it. And a few other things.

I'm on the p907a. The locked bootloader is the issue. Like I said I'm not a dev so I didn't understand the whole locked bootloader thing. Still don't completely but I've learned a bit trying different things.
Usually I just wait for someone to root whatever I'm using but this tablet gets so little attention I thought I might learn and try it myself. Waaaayyyy over my head here. LOL

Yea i updated it , but found out i couldn't root so just odined back to 4.1 i believe. No problems. .
I would like to know as well. I'll be all set once we get root....if we ever do.
I doubt we will ever get root for this tablet on 5.1.1. Unless another Towelroot like solution is found. Nobody really cares about this tablet and when you add the hardware bugs it had from launch its no wonder. Its a shame but it is what it is.

I wouldn't do it if I were you. Not while rooted....Can brick your phone I heard.
Do not update if u are rooted.
Well if you can't update while rooted, what are you supposed to do if it auto updates? I was just sitting in bed and noticed that my notification went off on my phone and not on my tablet (meaning not email). I checked the phone and if I hadn't noticed it would have auto updated and I am rooted on stock. It said the update would start in 3 minutes after I heard the notification. I deferred until tomorrow and have my phone how I want it, so I really don't want to go back to stock. I suppose I could make a nandroid.
It really scares me though that Verizon almost pushed an update that could have potentially bricked my phone. I don't think that is right, quite honestly.

DO YOU WANT 4.3 WITHOUT LOCKING YOUR BOOTLOADER OR KNOX? DO I HAVE A LITTLE TREAT FOR YOU: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2591895
We now have a safestrap! Mind you its an ALPHA and should be used with caution there are currently NO Roms that support it but it does have TWRP. So backups are possible. Read up and download here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2605648
Now that the 4.3 update is out the old thread isn't very accurate.
So I'm making this so we can talk about it!
Rules:
-No spamming
-Be nice
-HAVE FUN
DISCLAMER FOR TAKING THIS UPDATE: your bootloader will become perminantly locked after updating. So if you are fine with no more Roms or Kernels then update away. any rooting applications other then the one listed below will cause hard brick. any attempts to downgrade to MF! HARD BRICK

Which means VZW probably has some trickery in this to permalock the bootloader, so be careful.
Can anybody please check what languages does 4.3 have and if they're any different from 4.1.2? As we won't have root as of now, I'm afraid to lose support of one specific language enabled by Language Enabler. Thanks in advance!
Well this is great news. Maybe i'll run it over the holidays for the Camera. Can't wait to see what our great Devs can do with this!

Pretty much. I tried to update and it failed. I'm rooted on stock TW and unlocked. Tried a few things and I can't even get back to a stock unrooted rom
I guess I'll wait for a rooted rom.
I just updated my samsung galaxy s3 to jellybean 4.3 and really don't like the update. I would like to revert back to the official stock firmware that came before this 4.3 update. Can anyone tell me where I can download the firmware? Unfortunately all the links I found were not working.
From what I understand, the new bootloader included in the update makes reversion impossible.
As of today, attempting to revert will brick you.

Let's just say I had a lapse in judgement. I tried to flash a stock 4.1.2 image after taking the OTA update to 4.3. (Yeah, I know.) I then tried to flash 4.1.1, and then to the stock 4.0.4, which finally worked. I have tried flashing a 4.3 update file from the stock recovery, but it won't load since it says it's expecting to update files from 4.1.2, not 4.0.4.
Any suggestions?

@thecubed did say that the 5.0/L update patched bump. Per this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56646539&postcount=356
I wouldn't be surprised if it's patched up here as well.
Not sure what this update is, but i'll personally be skipping it.

Yeah the only thing is. This isn't Android L. It's a 4.4.2 incremental update. My guess is they caught on to bump. But as someone has said we can downgrade with the flash tool right now. But that might not be the case when lollipop is deployed.

since I know we can downgrade and re-root, I just took it and I'll use it for a while before reporting back in a few hours.
Does anyone know how to pull the zip from my device or the download URL so we can get a copy to pass around?
I rooted using twrp openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.1-trltetmo.img.tar via Odin 3.07, and installing UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.16.zip from the SD .
Now, when will there be ROMs?
Did you root the non-dev or dev version?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but trltetmo is for T-Mobile, isn't it?
FYI - this method does not work on retail phones . . . at least for me.
We probably won't see root until our boot loader is unlocked by Verizon.
Mine is dev and was a quick easy root exactly as stated.

A dev please adapt this for the Edge when it is updated for the Note 4. This is for the Retail version.

will we ever see this ? if so how long ?
Just to be clear: you used twrp 2.8.1.1 trltetmo (note 4) on your n915v dev edition and no problems?

I used this same method and can confirm it works flawlessly.
Works great. Having troubles with making and receiving casks atm but I think this is something else since it was working fine before that.
That's odd. I haven't had any issues yet. Using Xposed for a few tweaks and to activate the hotspot. Would be great to have a couple of roms to test.

I am not sure if it is something I uninstalled which was basically everything that said "Verizon ______" and then I uninstalled instagram, NFL mobile, audibel, amazon, Knox, etc. I don't think any of those were needed... and I still have Internet just not calls...

Quick question: can I extract an app from the stock Verizon firmware on sammobile?
I think one of the Verizon apps I deleted may be causing this.

I froze or Uninstalled the same things with titanium without any problems. I would believe you could get them from a stock rom. Question for you....... is your network set up correctly? Mine was on Global but I switched to LTE/CDMA.

It's on global but it's been that way this whole time. I tried switching to LTE/CDMA also and it didn't fix anything. I tried a "factory reset" but as you can imagine nothing happened. It rebooted to twrp and deleted all my apps/accounts. But nothing got reinstalled lol. Also on sammobile the link for the Verizon stock is broken all I get is a 404 when I click it... now I've done it lol.
Gonna try this method on Tuesday, when I get mine...Thx!

Can you use my backups? I have the stock and the rooted. I will send them to you if you want to recover with them. Maybe check your Sim card too.

Thank you! It was what I dreaded, but I'll keep hope alive! lol UGH.
Verizon has spent a ton of money locking down their bootloaders, there has been a bounty for the galaxy s4 bootloader for quite some time now (think we are in the third year or more) even if root comes to the retail version (hard to see that since the only root methods currently involve flashing something with odin) it is even less likely any of them will see custom roms. that is unless someone picks up the safestrap project as i last heard it was dropped. Dev editions are going to be the new norm for anyone on verizon, gonna be the only way to get custom anythings.
that said has anyone been able to extract their stock recovery or make a backup of the stock image from their dev edition? at this point i'd be like forever your BFF if you could get me back to stock since KIES wont work and samsung support doesnt even know the Developer Edition is on sale yet...... let along can they get me a stock recovery image lol....
also i just inboxed you @ffr3245 i am not sure if ti will work, but at this point i'd try just about anything.
I can not get these to upload!!! Anyways, I found docugod's post where he had uploaded his recovery image which is stock without root from Note Edge Developer Ed. Thanks go to him. With that being said, you should not have any problems using that recovery image. But as always do so at your own risk. And for anyone else reading.......This is for the Note Edge DEVELOPER EDITION, it is NOT for the retail Verizon one.
