Hey
I just wanted to find out, if i was to root my Note3 with CF Auto Root, it will nock the knox.
when i unroot it with CF Triangle away, will it reset the knox counter?
if not, is there anyway to root without nocking the knox counter (not using the kingoapp, as that is still under investigation by xda)
thanks

root yes trip knox triangle away not working you can root with Root De La Vega knox safe but you cant have cwm or roms
Anyone tried a custom recovery (or rom) after rooting with towelroot without tripping knox?
We should have an unlocked bootloader, will it make some differences?
Custom recovery/kernel will trip knox even with towelroot.
Confirmed here. G900W8. Tripped KNOX with TWRP.
hi,
my dad got i9515 4.4.2 with root and 0x0 and i really don't know how to update to 5.0.1 so the knox won't be 0x1 because of present time root the phone has.
kies update will only update the files but what about that root that is already on it? will it notice it and make 0x1 without root on 5.0.1?
what do odin? does flashing with odin is like fresh system so i just flash and it's 0x0 without root?
So many questions.
I'm not positive, but I don't believe you can use Kies on a rooted S4. It will pick up on the firmware status of "Custom" and not allow the update. OTA might work, but it may also check the firmware status, see that it's set to "Custom", and fail. Thus you should use Odin to do the update. If you do it through Odin you will not trip the Knox flag. You will however lose root and will need to root the device after the upgrade. Look through the forums as I'm not 100% sure on this, but to the best of my knowledge, there is no way to root Android 5.0.1 without tripping the Knox flag. I believe this is because the methods used to root without tripping the Knox flag no longer function on Android 5.0.1.
I want to root my edge +
Can i root it without worry about the knox?
Is there a way to disable the knox?
Can you put here a link of how to do a root? Is there an app that will do it? Im affraid of demaging the device..
Here is my device details:
Hi there,
Follow this guide to the letter http://forum.xda-developers.com/s6-...-to-rooting-flashing-custom-recovery-t3200324
You WILL TRIP KNOX and, currently, there is no workaround. Even if you flash a stock ROM with Odin, KNOX Warranty void WILL BE = 1.
You will loose samsung pay and most apps that check for root, like snapchat.
Hi to everyone, I have a galaxy A5(2016) A510F and I want to root it but this will trip knox so I want to ask if we root a stock rom and flash it via odin does this detect root and trip knox ? (we will modify the system.img that we find in.tar file)
It probably won't trigger KNOX, but root access would be unstable, at best. Try using KingRoot instead - if it works on your device, it will root it and keep the KNOX counter the same, and if it doesn't, it'll just tell you that it can't root your phone.
I don't want try it because my phone it's new so can someone try it and post the result ? Maybe someone that have already trigger knox, this don't want to be a problem for him/her
EDIT: I think Kingroot don't work http://forum.xda-developers.com/sam...ment/galaxy-a5-2016-success-kingroot-t3400564

I tried king root, but after reebooting my phone was unrooted. I suggest you to flash cf autoroot because, yes, it trips knox counter, but If u soft-brick your device in any way, you can always solve it using odin and flashing stock firmware/PIT...
They are two different things, maybe you are confused because it doesn't mean that if you flash cf autoroot and soft-brick your devices you can unbrick it just flashing stock rom, yes this is true but you can unbrick you phone in anytime without having cf autoroot!
I didn't mean that, i know odin doesn't request root permission, I said that if he flashes cf autoroot and he soft-bricks his device ( I know it's almost impossible ) he will resolve the problem by flashing stock formware (or a custom ROM after wiped cache, dalvik, data and system)
Unfortunately not possible to pre-root a stock Samsung 5.1.1 or 6.0 rom and preserve knox. It will boot loop your device. Selinux will block root and prevent the device from booting unless the boot.img is patched to remove the selinux root restriction.
However patching the boot.img trips knox, catch 22 situation.
Keep hoping for kingroot or Kingoroot if you want to preserve the knox counter.
Thanks for the reply
Can anyone try this http://www.samsungsfour.com/tutorials/how-to-root-all-samsung-galaxy-smartphones-without-pc.html ? I don't want to trip my knox!
If it works it wont trip knox as it doesn't touch the binaries.
Unfortunatelly, I can't try because i've already tripped the knox
