Which rooting method? CF-Auto Root works with all firmwares and bootloaders (but be wary of tripping the Knox flag).

Yes that will work. Although the fastest and best method (without having to install a custom recovery) is to use CF-Auto Root (and the safest too because I wouldn't trust the zip on the blog, but I trust Chainfire lol).

If i use that method, it will install the custom recovery and knox will be triggered, am i right sir? But if i use cf auto root, knox will remain 0x0?

Which is your current firmware? If you use ANY method to do any kind of rooting or flashing, your knox will be triggered and changed to 0x1 (if you are on the firmwares that have knox).
More info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470635
I think that zip is safe. Because i use that method since S3 generation. I use that method also on my S4 and it works fine. But i'm still on XXUBMG5 (Old Bootloader) and i want to update on the latest that's why i ask if that method will work. Thank you for answering sir

If you are on MG5, then you have no problems with rooting since you have no knox. But I suggest updating to the last firmware without knox which I think is XXUBMF8. All the firmwares with XXUB... are without knox. Some custom ROMs out there have no bootloaders when you flash them, so they are safe too. Just search for the answer and you'll know.

Hey friends:
im a normal member and everything above is only sharing
So you may get upset because of this thread
but i'll make things clear, everytime i open Q&A forum i see repeated questions everywhere
so here ill put some repeated answers about those stuff above
1. knox: well when you buy a new galaxy s5 the knox state will be 0*0 , but when you root your phone, flash custom recovery,custom kernel or custom rom this will trip knox and the knox state will be 0*1 and your warrenty will be void.
P.S: flashing firmware via odin will not trip knox
- so if you want to root without tripping knox you can go to this website : http://www.towelroot.com install apk by pressing the sign.
you will be able to root your phone quick from the phone itself but only if your phone on firmware from 3rd june or less
or your phone will not be rooted, but you can also root it by chainfire method from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696537
you can also use mobile odin to flash firmwares but be carefull to be sure about your phone model.
you can install the app from playstore or from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
P.S: firmwares can be downloaded from here : http://www.sammobile.com
i hope you Moderators understand me and dont get angry or close this thread because im only sharing and thought it will help my friends and the new forum members.
and at last im a member and i have the right to post what it usefull to xda community
hope that i helped.
Is is possible to use any Odin (I have 3 or 4 on my downloads) to flash stock over unlocked O2?

to flash firmware you can use computer odin v3.09 and then extract the md5 file from the firmware zip and put it in AP in odin (and maybe different version of odin says PDA)
?
What about "System Status", in recovery I have a "System Status: Custom", knox 0x0 though, I'm rooted and use Xposed, what does this mean? how can I reverse it to "OFFICIAL", is this important when it comes to warranty?
THANKS! :highfive: :good: :fingers-crossed:

Use Triangle Away by chainfire, the system status will be reverted to Official.

AFAIK it will be fake, the only way to officially convert it to original is, uninstall root reboot and then reinstall root and SuperSU to user directory, not to system. This method worked for Roms prior to 3rd June.

Ughhhh should have know that before updating and installing SuperSU to system... So no way to revert it if ROM is posterior to 3rd June? Even flashing official ROM again without root? :crying:

Yes you can downgrade, i downgraded from NG2 to NE2 myself without problems. Just flash the NE2 rom with Odin and data factory reset afterwards. Then use TR to root again.

Yes, KNOX is still 0x0 for me after the downgrade and the bootloader is downgraded to the NE2 one.

THANKS! To downgrade you just have to flash the NE2 rom? No more files? Sorry I'm kind of a noob

Yes, i only flashed the older firmware without a extra PIT file or bootloader file. Make sure to untick Auto Reboot first in Odin, after the flash pull the battery, wait for 10-20 seconds, boot into recovery and do a data factory reset and then the phone should boot normal and both the firmware and bootloader are downgraded to NE2 and KNOX remains 0x0. At least it worked for me this way and i expect it to work for others the same way
Hi guys
A few days ago, I bought a Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F model)
Now I would like to root this device
Is there any way to do this without increasing the KNOX counter?
Or should I wait for the Lollipop update?

Sorry for bad English
Here you will find instructions on safe root 0x0 and a lollipop.

flash the ANE2 kernel with odin3, root your device with towelroot, flash the ANG2 kernel again aaand done, your device is now rooted with knox 0x0!
thx I just love you <3
This has already been discussed and there are specific topics/guides showing exactly how to do this. There was no need to be lazy and create another topic so you could be spoon fed. We have a search button and google for a reason.
it worked but it shows custom binary
can I change it ?
Hi, I'd like to ask if there is a custom rom with all the following characteristics:
1) touchwiz based
2) MM 6.0.1
3) themes support
4) rooted
5) knox 0x0
I tried but could not find anything.
Thank you.

ROOTED MM will for sure trip the KNOX as of right now. So you might have to wait till some one finds a way to root without tripping KNOX

Wouldn't keep your hopes up, as it stands rooting MM requires modified bootloader, unless an exploit in the kernel like with Towelroot or similar is found its unlikely.
