No, you have to unlock the bootloader. I wouldn't touch kingroot for money.

Towel Root works on the Tegra

The Samsung S5 root tool put out by geohot also works on the Tegra, just tried it and got root.
But we have to unlock the bootloader first?

I don't think so. Just tried it and used SDFix afterwards and it did no longer complain that it did not work (which it did before rooting).
Indeed it works. But i don't have a recovery
I agree root works,but don't have recovery

ok Then..but i do think there was a way for those on system version 98.18.94....i think it was just the 4.1.2 with 98.30.1 that couldn't. but it's easy enough to just update...with kitkat all you have to do is install 2 apk's and your rooted and unlocked..

You can root 98.18.94 with SafeRoot but you can't unlock the bootloader on that version. Your best bet is to update and unlock your bootloader while you're at it so you never lose root.

For us no.
The only method we have is the Engineering bootloader.
