Is this possible? If you still need to "trip knox", then is there anyway that you atleast could have Xposed and still get OTA updates?

- Knox app wont work once your phone has rooted.
- Can still ota update. You can use Wanam to fake system status as official, or use Survival mode in the SuperSU Pro.
Knox won't trip if you'll root with Root De La Vega

[Q] Galaxy s4 official kitkat 4.4.2 knox-friendly root method

Hi,
I would like to know if there is any known way at the moment to get a rooted kitkat 4.4.2 firmware without tripping knox. I'm momentarily running MKE 4.3, German csc I think. I'm aware of saferoot for this firmware, but I would like to know if there's something like it for official kitkat, or if it is possible to root my 4.3 and then upgrade via mobile odin and inject root via everroot everroot without tripping knox. If not I'll just update via OTA and root via another method but if it's possible I'd like to keep knox for now

No, uptil now there is no such method developed. Check on Kingo root website whether they ve updated to root 4.4.2 firmware.

Oké, Thanks anyway
I don't really trust kingoroot as I thought that it had spyware installed, just as vroot, but then I heard about saferoot and I I was hoping I could keep root via mobile odin, but too bad. I'll just just root via cf-root then

Does not trip the knox counter..but don't expect to use custom recoveries. It is a simple root only.

Thanks! I read about it in the featured articles but I wasn't sure it would work or not. I was just planning to use the root to clean the ROM up a bit to free up some system memory and RAM and make some apps system apps, better backups and fiddle a bit with my storage, and maybe using some modules, do you know if using Xposed trips knox?

Xposed doesn't... but I would be weary of modules that perform bootloader or deep system changes
Titanium Backup.. and use backup app and then remove/disable etc
Just be careful... if the knox counter is v important to you.

It's not that important to me, I just don't want to trip it if I don't have to, if I need to trip it for something I really want to do I don't have a problem with it , it's not like use knox thanks you very much

Actually KNOX is very important for warranty issues. If you dont have warranty then I wouldnt worry about it. If you DO have warranty then do not mess with KNOX-tripping root methods.

[Q] Android L & Root? Knox workaround and general speculation..

Hi gurus. first off, bought my first note 4 some days ago.. always thought the note series would be too big a phone for me.. what have i been thinking??? this is hands down the best phone i have ever had.. cant remember the last time a phone gave me this feeling..
but I am at a crossroad here.. i really REALLY miss root, but a little hesitant regarding tripping the e-fuse/knox/warranty. havent had a Samsung since the S4 was newly released.
I do not want to flash custom roms, just root stock and debloat and titanium backup, xposed, ad blocking etc..
in this regard, towelroot, stumproot is genius i think, and still able to receive OTA. but does not work on the note 4 of course.
but what happens when Lollipop arrives, seem to remember that the L would be different regarding root? should i wait to root until the Lollipop update arrives, should be here soon for our devices..
do you think there will be a workaround for the e-fuse trippin?
in general, whats your thoughts about this..?
my phone is the Snapdragon, SM-N910F.
Don't hold your breath for a root that doesn't trip Knox, and don't worry about it unless you work for a corporation that requires the use of Knox.
Chainfire had already proven root on devices with LP; I don't see any reason to wait. Being rooted doesn't often seem to be a problem regarding warranty.
Thanks for your reply rcobourn. Would one be able to receive ota with Chain fire auto root? What's the preferred rooting method when only going stock.?
Will root make Private Mode unusable?
I don't care about voiding warranty with knox 1 or 0x1, but I want knox Private mode to work on a Rooted exynos.
Any one knows if rooted knox still works or it must disabled with Titanium Backup?

CF breaks OTA as I found out the hard way, it tried to auto install and soft bricked itself last night. Easy fix, just flash the latest firmware from sammobile.
As for private mode that is only broken if you use Xposed without Xsecurestorage

Not if it's rooted. Flash using ODIN, dunno what it's like now but in the S2 days Kies was an awful piece of crap, whereas ODIN always worked perfectly.

I highly doubt Kies will work properly, although it does tell me when there is an update for my phone when rooted so it might but I personally wouldn't try it as it most likely will do the same thing as letting it install the OTA automatically and soft brick it

Worked for me when the last update came out, I just updated via Kies while I was rooted. Everything went good.
Did you keep root while using kies?

I was rooted while I used kies to update, after the update the root got removed and I had to root it again with the same method I used to root it before the update.

You can un-root in the settings of the SuperSu app,it will remove SuperSu and all its files from your system.
However it will not reset your tripped Knox.
If you rooted through TWRP,un-rooting will not remove TWRP , this can only be done by flashing a stock ROM through Odin.

So if your rooted with cfroot and get an update from samsung, just use supersu to unroot, install the update, and root again? The update should install with even with knox tripped right?
Isn't there a way of flashing just the recovery rather than a whole rom? It seems that's what the updates are looking for when they try to install themselves.

I could be wrong, but I guess you can't? You should probably have read more before you rooted, huh?
flash a stock rom and you will be good to go...
i dont think tripped knox will affect your updates

Nonsense. KNOX won't affect OTAs at all; if you have a stock unrooted rom installed you'll get OTAs.
You can flash a newer ROM over an older rom in ODIN and retain your settings and data. There's a chance your ROM won't work properly though and you might get some System UI crashes in which case you will need to nuke your data.
how can i find a stock rom for my phonemy baseband version is G930FXXU1APB6 and its a g930fd the only ones ive found are saudi arabia and pakistan. can anyone give me a hand
If you're just worried about getting ota updates, just use flashfire. It will apply the update without losing root, apps or settings.
