You need root and yes custom recovery/kernel will trip knox. Even rooting will trip knox if your firmware is a bit dated.
Yes I know dt rooting will trip KNOX flag bt was not sure about recovery...thnx bro

If already root will TWRP trip KNOX?

If I already have Root access, and managed to not trip KNOX: installing TWRP will or will not trip KNOX?
(without installing any custom ROM, I'd like to have TWRP for saving backups only)
it will because you will be flashing a partition of your phone.

I'm wondering if anybody knows if flashing the TWRP recovery with FlashFire will trip knox. Seeing as you don't use the bootloader to flash the partition.

It does not care at all. You still boot it with the bootloader and you are set.
Greetings
I have planned to root my galaxy note 3 and it's current running kit kat. So I searched online there were quite a number of ways to root note 3.
So I would like to ask which method is recommended and also doesn't trip the Knox?
Thank you.
I used cf root on 4.3 and had no issued. But I tripped my knox.

As of today there's no method of rooting that doesn't trip knox! the CF-root by chainfire seems to be the reliable one, but it TRIPS YOUR KNOX COUNTER. Downgrade to 4.3 is also not possible on N9005.

There're numbers of rooting method.
The best (in terms of dummy proof) I could say is cf-autoroot.
As u r in kitkat, don't bother to waste ur time to find untriggered knox rooting method, as said earlier post, there's none up to now.
If u need root, forget knox.
If u need knox flag, forget rooting.

I have the I9500 with 4.4.2 and it's not working with all 3 versions of the program.
Question for anyone who can answer it correctly; would un rooting a phone (with knox tripped) and installing a fresh stock firmware then re-rooting it with this method and placing a custom rom on it would keep the knox un touched or would it still be tripped?

Once Knox is tripped, it's tripped no way to fix that.

Didn't really want to hear that but oh well. I bought my phone unlocked online so no need for any warranty, I'm pretty confident in myself to know how to fix an internal problem if I have one (or external). Thank you for the reply
not working

custom recovery will trip knox
I also successfully rooted my tmobile M919 on 4.4.2 with towelroot. I then installed SU from chainfires site and next installed CWM from ROM manager. My knox counter is tripped, but oh well.
The thing I have noticed is that, since root, some applications that want to access the SD card are having trouble. For instance, Flipboard opens and runs ok, but there are no pictures. Kindle reading app cannot downnload my book to the device. It will sync them, but hangs when asked to download them. ESPN app would not download podcasts, UNTIL I switched the storage location from external to internal storage. (I ttried to change the Cache from external to internal in flipboard, but the application force closes everytime i try to make that switch - another indication that certain apps are having trouble with extrnal storage.
I have tried another SD card, but still no go.
Any ideas? Thanks
(also, if I were to decide to unroot, would the simplest way be to do it through SU ?

Kitkat blocked SD access so I was told. Use SD Fix to fix that, basically it opens up your SD card for write access.
Or any other SD fixer apps in play store.. You need root.
Hi, I have used 2 diferent sd fix apps from play store. They say the issue is fixed, but in reality, it is not. My kitkat is 4.4.2 and is rooted. Any other suggestion, please?
HI, did anyone manage to get towelroot to work on lollipop stock TW for s4 LTE? Mine said "device npt supported"

Kitkat SD Card patch and Titanium backup will not and cannot
change the status of Knox so Knox will remain unaffected. (0x0)
So you can use either one or both without tripping knox.
Good luck!
Thank you very much.
Now can i ask how i can do a Nandroid backup using titanium backup?

I think it won't trip knox, since it was successful on S5 and some older device.
But if that towelroot can used to root this note 4.
I heard towelroot isn't updated anymore and can't root newer device.
But you always can try and report here..
Thabks a lot for the answer
Towelroot was patch about a week after it was out so it no longer works if you really care about knox wait for someone to do a Rom rooting it without tripping knox otherwise Chainfires root will trip knox
