Sorry if it has been asked before, but I couldn't find it through search.
So the question is, is it possible to root S7 Edge without tripping knox? Even a temporary root that doesn't trip knox would be acceptable (even though the phone will lose root after restarting).
Thanks!

Really? This has been answered a million times already . . .
Rooting AND custom ROM will trip KNOX, and you can't use i.e. Samsung Pay anymore...

Thanks. Well I was hoping that there might be a method for some type of temp root that wouldn't trip KNOX.

Without tripping Knox ? What do you mean with this ?
I just recently rooted my Galaxy Note 3 N9005 with Odin 3.09 and CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar.md5
No problem with Knox, allthough it intervenes when starting the SuperSU
What u had in mind?

Rooting with CF-Auto-Root has tripped the Knox counter of your Note 3. Congrats.

lolz... oh yea?
Please tell me, what does this tripping Knox counter mean?
( sorry for stupid question... i answer it by myself... with using google)
http://www.kingoapp.com/help/samsung-knox-counter.htm
I was in an impression that I can still unroot this, without too much of hassle?
(Last time I checked, it showed 0x0)

It's not possible for your Knox flag to show 0x0 after flashing CF-Auto-Roo. As soon as you flash unsigned images to your Note 3, it'll trip knox and you may lose your warranty.

You're right it seems :silly:
However I don't find this very offensive, as I offcourse accepted the risk before rooting. Allthough, I wish I'd have read more about which bloat I shouldn't have removed... that damn MagazineHome.apk is really pain in the ass. After I deleted it, --> stock email FC every time new message comes... and what really sucks, I was unable to restore or install MyMagazine or MagazineHome.apk (with or without .odex) to get rid of this annoying crash messages.
Not sure yet why I was unable to reinstall those... is there different versions of them on Verizons Note 3 than in my galaxy note 3 n9005 ?
And one thing I havent yet learned is, whether the Knox is avoiding me from doing these restores or managing to reinstall those properly? (help anyone?! please )
Is this true? Supposedly with this program for windows the official 5.0.1 lollipop rom N910FXXU1BOB4 can be rooted (maybe without tripping knox???)

when I said "without tripping knox" i meant: without increasing the knox counter to 1 and thus invalidating the warranty.
So if it works it could be the first method to root preserving the warranty.
I haven't tried though.
Anyone?

does it says anywhere that it won't trip knox?
i've looked but haven't seen anything about that.
so why would you think about something like that? if it would be possible it would've been huge news everywhere
so i think it's safe to assume you thought completely wrong about that it won't trip knox :good:

Dear sxjg23. Be our guest and give it a try.
Please let us know the result.
Nowhere to read if it don't trip Knox. It looks the same as the Kingo root server based method. My advice : root with Chainfire's solution via Odin. Yes, it trips Knox but it'a a safe and proven method.
I've tried both methods of SRSRoot, which says it's rooted but actually it's not. Some apps (root checker, titanium backup) complain it's not rooted.
Maybe I'm doing something bad.
I'll use the well-proven cf-root method instead.
I have an S7 Edge ( Exynos ) and I'm missing some root functionnality but I don't want trip Knox and I still want to recieve those OTAs with the security patches... But as I know the available root method is CF-Auto-Root that trip Knox. And I see that some people are getting horrible batteryclife and slow performance after rooting...
Any chance TowelRoot will update for the S7 edge or is there any root method that doesn't trip knox ?

Rooting will not deminish your battery life or performance. The handful of users who claim such things do so out of ignorance. geohot isn't working on s7/s7e to my knowledge. You can download the monthly OTAs manually and ODIN them without having to factory reset. I'd say there's little to no chance you'll see a root method that doesn't trip knox on s7/s7e. :good:

Thanks for clarifying !!! But I really want to keep my warranty so I guess I just have to wait and hope...
I have heard that magisk versions above v12 can do it but never tried eventually so if you know if it can or something that can root without tripping knox please tell me.
and one more question does Kingroot trip knox. I dont want to root with Kingroot but yea...
There is no way to root without tripping Knox.
Magisk can hide knox counter from apps, but it cannot reset the counter, nor can it root without tripping it.
Kingroot will trip it as well.
Kingroot won't work for s8.
You can root then set knox to 0x0 on the PHONE only. Download mode will still show 0x1 and knox tripped.
Only thing you lose rooting is Samsung pay. And maybe warranty depending on region.

Yeah it will always start on all devices, then most likely fail around 40%. Only phone I ever got to work with kingroot was an old alcatel pixi.
There's a few advantages of rooting s8 but depends what you use root for. If you do want to root I suggest TWRP and magisk.

What model? G950F/FD? G950U? There is a very simple way to root G950U/G950W devices already in existence. It's called SamFail and is listed with an accompanying rom in the threads section.

Sadly, currently there is no way of rooting Exynos S8 without tripping knox..
Unfortunately as mentioned above and beyond there is no way currently without tripping Knox. Sadly, I use Samsung Pay alot and like the idea of keeping that option hence no rooting as long as this device is my DD.

A question if anyone can help me.
I really need to Root my Galaxy S8 (SM-G950F) cause i need to try to recover some photos and most apps to recover need the root done.
I know that root trips Knox, but if i install an official firmware after been tripped, will phone get back to normal, or it will tripped forever??
Thanks

It physically trips knox warranty, so if it’s tripped once, you can’t recover it unless you replace motherboard.

Nope, you won't be able to use it again, even after you install an official firmware afterwards.
