Flashing anything custom will trip KNOX
EDIT - Tell a lie, I believe there is a custom(ish) stock(ish) ROM that can be flashed without tripping knox, the thread title says KNOX0x0

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.

Good day guys., I am now ready to void my knox warranty and I wanted to have a custom rom. Is it possible? I read somewhere that only the old bootloader is allowed to have custom rom. Am I stuck in this unfortunate rom?

There is only two ways:
1. Change conclusively Knox 0x1 and have root and custom ROM. Of course loose waranty.
2. No root no change knox 0x0 and have a stock
Yeah it's okay for me to have 0x1 knox. I just want to make sure cause I thought I read somewhere you cant flash custom rom on knox bootloader

So last question im a little bit paranoid, is it possible to flash a custom rom given I had a knox bootloader?

As the title says I would like to revert back to Official Status, remove root and stay on Knox 0x0
I have 4.3 version, Knox 0x0, and I have reset to factory defaults and I do not have root now.
As knox is 0×0 it means you are not rooted.Just flash official firmware will solve your status.flash it wia odin.

No. False. Knox flag DOES NOT mean you're not rooted if it's 0x0.
The only times this is true is if root using a method that rewrites your recovery, such as CF-Auto-Root.
The only things that trip knox are unsigned recoveries (ANY custom recovery) and custom kernels (ANY custom kernel).

Ohh..tnx for correcting me.!But I think the problem is status of device. As knox is 0×0 there is no problem.knox is not triggered. Flashing a stock firmware changes the status custom to official. Please correct me if I am understanding wrong!

Correct. Flashing a full stock firmware AFTER a factory reset and wipe should return to official status, officially.

As title says, im seeking for recommendations on a ROM that has the best s5 style for my i9500, any suggestion is welcome
Also, as i am still under warranty, is there any way to revert back to complete stock in case i want to take it for repair ? thanks

Bumping not allowed.
Plus if you flash anything custom, it will trigger the knox counter whichvoids warranty.
All I can say is, if you dont care about warranty, flash ozcan v5.2 or hassan rom.
If you care about warranty, wait

Well if you can see that method is for i9505. Towelroot wont work with an i9500.
So no towelroot, no root access, no root acces, no mobile odin, no mobile odin, no flashing thus ultimately no i9505 custom rom method.
Plus those files are specifically for i9505.
And you cannot flash a i9505 kernel on i9500

Well if that worked i9500 wouldve been equally popular as compared to its brother i9505.
There is minimal developement because of the restrictions and limitations on our "octa-core"

Are you already rooted, if you are your best bet is to wait until dev's get the official release and custom roms start rolling out,
If your not rooted, I'm not sure of how you will do it with out tripping knox.
