Just flashed the engineering boot.img. Make sure you boot into BOOTLOADER mode when using odin to flash this because the instructions don't show this. Also, make sure to back up all your stuff because most likely this will involve a factory reset.



Update #3: So, seems like our variant seems to have issues with the activation process. Here's what I did to fix it. It's a temporary fix until it gets figured out completely but it's a fix none the less.

1. Flash engineer boot.img through odin.

2. Factory reset/wipe

3. Go through the setup process without actually activating (once it gets to the activation screen press and hold the back button).

4. I signed into my google account through wifi and I downloaded Package Disable Pro+ Samsung (https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...isablerpremium). Yes it costs money but it's the way I achieved this work around at the moment.

5. I went into settings>Acitvate this device.

Don't click "done" after it gets activated.

6. Press the home button to get to the main screen and open up Package Disabler Pro+ Samsung

7. After Package Disabler Pro is set up... I searched for Samsung DM Service and I disabled it.



Voila! No more rebooting. Like I said, this is hopefully temporary until it gets figured out.



Now on to installing SU. I will post back with pictures of Root Checker.



Update #4: Installed SU through the root.bat file in the instructions. Took a screenshot of root checker. Here it is in all it's glory.

Almost forgot to mention that it seems that the engineer boot.img does lag the system a little bit so again, try it at your own risk. I for one will be trying this out like I have with all my older devices. Next step is Adaway =D.
