delavega.. Shoudln't have any problems right?

No..shouldn't be any problem using MOP.
Does your phone still 0x0 Knox..?
Do you do any modding with wanam exposed..?

Wrong. Samsung, apart from Nexus devices, used to be extremely easy to root. They only tightened it up since Note2 and S4.

Note 2 had the Custom counter, but that was easily overcome. In fact Note 2 is also an easy to root device.

Samsung wants a piece of the Enterprise pie, because once you get stuff certified "For Enterprise" you can charge 10x or more for the same old sh*t

Compare the "ease" of rooting HTC or Sony devices, or even any of the other brands.


Read page 1, posts 8 and 9 please. Those already SUMMARIZE all rooting discussions.

Still has 0x0 knox, I'll try removing wanam and see

Not difficult to root or flashing custom rom.
Only difficult go claim warranty if Knox tripped.

No need to remove Wanam and Xposed. If you are rooted on MJ1 with knox 0x0, just flash using MOP method. You will be updated to MJ7 with current bootloder + root retained

He got problem with MOP...stating his phone have some different partition layout or some such

There was a time where SME dont bother if u r rooted or on custom rom . As long as it's a SME unit and the hardware stickers are not tampered with , your warranty is valid . Seems a lot of inexperienced users flash n bricked and many other things till SME changed their policy .

i encounter tis error as well.
but after i uninstall Super SU yesterday update and install MOP again den i can install mj7 nicely.

i am pretty sure is due to super su update.
mayb moderator can put in front page for ppl who wan to flash mj7 with this error and super su update

Remember I read somewhere which could be due to the SuperSU thingy. Not sure though

After I root will I still get the official OTA update?

I think...rooting started have bad reputation to service centre when S2 G version coming out. Many noob go flash Exynos firmware or rooting method into their G version phone and endup bricking it....lolz

Depend on your skill of rooting OR your luck.
Bad skill or bad luck can still trigger your Knox.

Ok, later.

Fixed my problem, thanks

first page got link

You can get ota if you change your status to official but i HIGHLY discourage OTA if you want to remain rooted and not trip knox as OTA will install new bootloader that makes it impossible to root without tripping knox.

im planning to buy another cable from here https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3015048
but i cant find any info about cable whether it is genuine or not since its stated 1.5m
any info???

You need somebody to upload the modified MJ1 for you as my Dropbox account been suspended edi.

OR you can try antt00 method to build your own modified MJ1 firmware via URDLV (Universal Root de La Vega)

It's likely OEM. Try seller brotan (I don't recall his GS link) since he ensures his cables meet GCC ratings of 1800, and he's also in SS2/SS3 area.
