This guide will show you how to root the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM- N900A).

Disclaimer: FlexiSPY is not responsible for rooting the Android device in any way. Before performing any of these steps make sure you back up your Android device completely.

What is needed to root the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM- N900A)?

This Sony device can actually be rooted using the device itself. This means that you only need the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM- N900A) that you wish to root in your hand, unlike other Android phones this phone can be rooted without needing a PC.

Step 1 – Enable the installation of unknown sources

Rooting the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM- N900A) requires the use of the towelroot rooting software. This is software that you must download and run on the phone itself. Before you can do this however you need to enable the installation of unknown sources.

On the phone itself go to Settings > Security and tap the Unknown Sources option (make sure it is checked).

Step 2 – Download towelroot

Now that you have enabled the installation of unknown sources it is time to root the phone by downloading towelroot.

Open the phone browser.

Navigate to https://towelroot.com/

Tap the main icon to download the APK file.

Save the APK file to your phone.

Step 3 – Root the phone

Now that you have downloaded towelroot on to the phone please run it.

On the screen that appears tap the make it ra1n option.

Wait for the rooting process to complete.

After towelroot completes you need to install SuperSU. To do this you go to the Play Store and download and install SuperSU which is a free application.

When you have downloaded SuperSU, run it and let it update itself.

Once this has been done you should successfully have root access on the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM- N900A).

Towelroot does not work. Error: This phone isn’t currently supported.

  It’s looking like the device firmware has been updated and the exploit no longer works.

      Hello Sue.
      
      Unfortunately for many devices rooting is now a game of cat and mouse. This means that the device may be rootable, then the manufacturer stops it, then another root method works, then it is stopped etc. Right now there is no root method for that particular variant and model of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3. To start with you could root it using CFAutoRoot and Odin on your PC, Samsung fixed that in an OS update, then a root tool called Root De La Vega could root the device, Samsung stopped that, then Universal Root De La Vega could root it and Samsung stopped that too so now nothing can currently root it and you cannot go back to an earlier firmware either.

        FlexiSPY will still work on an unrooted phone, but you won’t get all of our advanced features.

I have four questions:
1. Does the program works with another spy program that already exists?
2-you can see the screen lock code after the change by the owner of the mobile?
3. Is it possible to send all written conversations like Snapchat?
4. Does the program controls on any new program after downloading such whatsapp and Snapchat.?

  1) Could work, but we recommend that you uninstall any other spy apps before installing FlexiSPY.
  
  2) If you are talking about our Password cracking feature, then yes.
  
  3) Snapchat capture is iOS only for now.
  
  4) Not sure what you mean here.
