Hi everyone, I rooted my s4 mini when it was on XXUBMJ7 thanks to saferoot. SuperSU told me something about Knox that was disabled. Great. I checked it in download mode and it was still at 0x0.
Then I updated my phone via OTA, and now it is on XXUBML4. Saferoot no longer works, tried also kingo root, it takes a looooong time (40-50 mins?) and at the end it fails.
Apart from flashing cwm etc... there's somethign I can do to root this phone without triggering Knox?
No one?
We must wait. There is no method for now to root new firmwares without triggering a Knox

I read somewhere that here in Europe Knox doesn't void warranty, so I rooted anyway using this method (the one found here on xda didn't worked): http://www.androidiani.com/forum/mo...-recovery-cescomn-tools-s4-mini-gt-i9195.html
Now my Knox is 0x1, but I'm rooted. Who cares. :laugh:
Thanks for the tutorial!!

Hi,
i am seeing that currently people are recommending kingo root or vroot, that was claimed that this won't trigger knox flag at all.
After rooting. if i were to flash any custom ROM, will this trigger knox flag?
Thank!

Yes it will. Flashing a custom Recovery and/or a Rom will trip Knox. Kingo and vroot are not full roots. The phone is rooted enough to allow you to customize the stock rom and for applications that require root to work. If you want to flash custom roms, you might as well use the CF Auto Root method and get a full root. That will trip knox but so will what you want to do.
I'm sure it will be trip by KNOX. Keep calm until developer launch triangle away for Note 3 dude.

hi guys,
Since there are loads of posts about roots and after whole day of searching i didnt find any satisfactory answer, half of them says one thing another half says something else, therefore i would like to ask you for help.
Im user of note 3 sm-n9005 unbranded with kitkat 4.4.2 n9005xxuenb1. official knox 0x0 and no root yet.
My question is simple, is there way to root my note 3 without wiping, flashing custom roms, triggering knox and still be able to receive ota updates? just simply add root?
thx in advance.

if you root you wont get OTA anymore.
I used cf-root on my galaxy s4 and note 3 n9005 4.3 and got sucessful.
Cf root will trip your knox and phone will be left without warranty.

if you have root, you can install wanam xposed and fake system status to offical. After that you can OTA.

Can download yes, but install no, to install you have to unroot or go through a different method to install.

Well there is a way to do it, not 100% sure myself as I never done it, but it can be done (with MOP Afaik) - but yes, a full flash via Odin will preserve KNOX status
Unfortunately that ship hasn't just sailed but is over the horizon, hit an iceberg and sunk....
You needed to be on JB firmware, pre MJ3 to root without tripping Knox and then update using MOP to flash KK. You then needed to flash the KK bootloader with PC ODIN. This would retain root and leave Knox untouched allowing OTA. Root would be lost as soon as the OTA happened but you could download and flash again with MOP retaining root...
You can't root your phone now without tripping Knox...
If you do decide to, the best bet is cf-autoroot with PC ODIN.
I'm going to say again - NOTHING at this time will allow you to root without tripping Knox....
okay so i dont care now bout triggering knox. so my question is if its possible to root my note keeping actual fw and being able to update and install ota.
hm?
today i have received and installed n9005xxuenc2 and there was another 4 bloatware apps. i moved them to blocked apps. but still want to remove them which is possible only with root...

If you delete system files the OTA will not install in 3rd recovery ☺ Dont think for 3rd party apps as in tour screenshots.

Hi
I need a software for android system that able prints documents , pic ,.... from mobile to remove printers directly.
What is the best/safest root method for the SM-G900F?
You can try Towelroot.
I prefer CF-Auto Root even though it trips KNOX
what is Knox? I keep seeing it everywhere

you can see knox counter in download mode. it should be: 0x0
when you trip this counter it goes to: 0x1
with that warranty is void. well, in most parts of the world
you can trip knox counter if you flash 1) custom kernel or 2) custom recovery
Most of roms here will trip knox counter, some will not(like Neat ROM from Sale)

Towelroot does not remove knox?
Have not used Towelroot myself so I cannot confirm. I've heard it does not trip KNOX if your firmware is dated June or earlier.

how to know if my firmware's date? is it the kernel version? it says Wed Jul 23
That would be part of it yes. I haven't read much into Towelroot. They could have updated it from last I heard so things could have changed there.

Install a custom recovery and super-su via flash zip.
Will trip Knox 0x1
Enviado de meu SM-G920F usando Tapatalk
you can user super-su via flash tripping knox. If you are on kitkat you can upgrade to LOLLIPOP with root and knox 0x0 (look at this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/general/rooted-stock-lollipop-5-0-1-knox-0x0-t3061536)

Firstly, It's the wrong section
Secondly, there is a guide on how to root right in this section. It should be among the first post. If you can't find it, google "cf auto root s4"
