ODIN showed PASS for rooting my Samsung Note 3 SMN900T however ROOT CHECKER indicated my phone wasn't rooted. What am I missing?
Thank you.

What are you flashing to get root?

It's been a while since I've rooted anything so forgive me if I'm out of date on this.

Chainfires CF-auto root was always the easiest, you tried that?

Also I can guarantee that there will be a thread on this at the XDS developers forum that will explain it.

I used the CF Auto Root file from ODIN which showed "PASS" after rooting however ROOT CHECKER shows my phone remains UNROOTED.

Super SU was not found anywhere on my phone after installing the CF-auto root. Nor did ODIN confirm that my phone was seen on the COM port.

I seem to remember there being specific drivers that you need to install so windows sees the phone in recovery mode.
