On the latest Cdn firmware Motochopper root method does not work according to various reports (as outlined in this thread from the guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2298299 ).
I used Chainfire's autoroot to get root (same as mentioned by SU above), and Goomanager to install twrp. Use this guide here to install root access:

I followed the instructions and used the files T530_NH7_Ker_W0lfDroid.tar.md5 and T530_ROOT_Ker_W0lfDroid.tar.md5.
But I have no recovery, which is working well.
I used the recovery.tar, which you can find here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab...rp-2-7-1-0-galaxy-tab-4-10-1-sm-t530-t2830798
But with this Custom Recovery for me it's not possible to select a backup file...

There is a newer recovery here, working fine for me (been using it for backups, restoring, flashing, etc. just fine).

I also found this recovery, but I can't copy it with ODIN. I tried the "twrp2840-190114_matissewifi" IMG, ZIP and TAR, but I always got an ODIN-error.
There is also an openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-matissewifi.img linked in this post.
Should I try this img or which one have you used?
Have you used Odin for flashing the recovery file?
Why was the head fool by towelroot if the counter has 0x1 ?

Wouldn't that method put knox to 0x1? Or am I mistaken. And couldn't he try using towelroot, depending on the version hes on?
He doesn't have a Verizon phone. He has an international model or at least that is what he listed. Not everyone can go up and down firmwares like we can.
You are right though. He could try towelroot first.

The full instructions here should help. The only difference is that you need the kernel/firmware for your specific s5 version.

Your questions would be safer answered by someone on the Galaxy S5 international forum but I found a couple of things. Use with caution as I don't know anything about your device.
Here is a link on how to upgrade to lollipop if you are interested. Also, this custom recovery (CWM) was in the same link. I believe you might have an unlocked boot loader so you are way better off than we are.
I also found this:
Backup device
Quote:
Step 1. Boot into recovery(hold the menu button and volume up button all together simultaneously until the device reboots)
Step 2. Select the backup button and confirm backup

Kingroot works on my A700H, and it doesn't trip knox counter. However it might trip the custom OS counter, so you will have to use Triangle Away.
P.S: I only tested this for 4.4.4, and is A700H, which is 3G Dual-SIM, so it might not work for the FD.

Hello!
I'm afraid it won't work as simple as with kingroot, but I can recommend you this simple step by step "tutorial". It's simpler than it seems after you read the instructions carefully.
