Need TWRP and SuperSU beta 2.71 for rooting Marshmallow correctly
You've already tripped KNOX by flashing CF AR, TWRP is a very powerful, and necessary recovery when you're doing things like rooting
Flash TWRP 3.0.0.0 and then that SuperSU zip

"Correctly" are other users having problems with flashing cf-root through pc odin?
If i flash TWRP, will i need to clear data\factory reset my device?
Could you give me link to the required files please, thank you.

No, nothing gets wiped
MM requires newer SuperSU, as you found out older versions have problems
TWRP 3.0.0.0

[Q] [HELP] root Knox

hi i have a samsung galaxy s4 gt-i9505 xxuemj7 with android 4.3 and knox, how can i root and install CWM?
If your root and flash recovery note you will loose KNOX capabilities and trigger the KNOX counter and you can not downgrade to any lower firmware version after that.
If your happy with the above:
Flash CF-Root as PDA in Odin:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219803&highlight=chainfire
Then download any recovery you want to use, and flash again with Odin. Most here recommend TWRP or Philz Recovery.

I ran into the same problem, flashed TWRP 3 times and KNOX remained 0x0 and recovery remained stock
Ended up having to use CF Auto Root to gain root, then use TWRP Manager to flash TWRP

Yea flash CF Auto Root via ODIN, then install that TWRP app and the app itself will flash TWRP for you
I was running stock BOB7 when I tried to flash TWRP

CF-Root and CWM Recovery question

Hello all....I have been able to install CWM Recovery on my SM-N900T and it works fine. The device USED to be rooted but I had to unroot due to corporate policies. I would like to re-root it now and I still have the CWM flashable CF-Root zip file that I can install with CWM. The question is, once I install that zip file, will CWM recovery be replaced with the stock recovery ? I somehow remember running into something like that but I am not sure and I wanted to check with all of you first. I want to be prepared in case I have to re-install CWM again.
Thank you all!
It's just a cf auto root. Cwm/twrp are different things.
Sent from my SM-N920C
I recommend using twrp. To obtain root, you can just flash supersu from twrp.

Thanks for the reply...yes I understand CF autoroot and twrp/wm are different things. What I meant was that using CWM (booting into it as revocery), there is the option to select "Install zip" which will flash a cf-autoroot "flashable" zip....

Hi i want to root Stock 6.0.1 mm and keep stock recovery. So do we have to flash TWRP in order to root stock 6.0.1 mm? Or just flashing the cf-root file via odin alone will give root access? Thanks

CF-root via odin will root your device and you'll keep stock recovery.
I wonder what's the point of keeping stock recovery by the way

Thanks, i tend to use stock samsung rom always, but just like root to remove crap, titanium backup and some apps that require root permissions. Btw what options on odin do we tick when flashing the cf-root file?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Hmm, I guess if you never need to flash anything then keeping the original could be OK.
I'd say trwp is still useful to perform backup (entire rom at a time).
Well normally, you don't need to tick any options (the useful ones are ticked already).
So, only auto reboot and F.Reset time should be ticked.

When i had the S4 a few years ago, i had clockworkmod recovery which was great and i was familiar with, but was not ever a fan of twrp even then, so decided to stay stock with the s5 but thanks for the help mate.

Hi mate, just rooted my s5 via odin and cf-root file. However every time I reboot the phone, i get a "Set warranty bit" message in yellow at the top of the screen, I did do a wipe cache after I rooted. How do i remove that message? thanks
To my knowledge, you can't get rid of this message which was tripped by the rooting process.
But it doesn't make any difference anyway so you might as well leave it!
Then, you can run the root to the Galaxy S5 SM-G900F Android 6.0.1 and Kernel of May 31, 2016 without triggering this blessed knox 0x1?
I still have not figured out if it is feasible, and if you can do as you progress? Towelroot works?

It doesn't. I installed all these automatic upgrades and tried to use towelroot, but it said, that the device isn't supported. :crying: :crying: :crying:
do i need to unlock the boooader before or after
do i need to unlock the boooader before or after?
or not at all?
obviously the first file that i need to flash (twrp) is the custom recovery.
do i unlock the bootloader before this?

Root using TWRP - SuperSU?

Hello
I have a SM-T530 (on latest official 5.0.2 firmware), and would like to root it.
It seems to be hard to do if I'm browsing the forums, but I would just like to check:
Isn't it possible to
flash TWRP using Odin and then flash SuperSU via TWRP?
Would this work? Would it be temporary?
Can I brick my device this way, or could I just reflash stock firmware if things go south?
Thanks! And sorry if it's a repost, but I can't get a definitive answer from earlier posts...
Oh yeah, I obviously don't care about tripping KNOX and warranty, since the tab is too old...
Alright, I just went for it:
*Flashed TWRP 3.0.1 using Odin (3.2.1 I could flash, but it wouldn't boot)
*Uncheck auto reboot in Odin, manually shut down device
*Boot to recovery using power+volup+home (otherwise stock recovery will persist)
*Flashed latest SuperSU
Worked like a charm!
For TWRP 3.0.1, see attachment or here: https://www.softstech.net/install-twrp-root-galaxy-tab-4-10-1/amp/
