A few methods out there for rooting,I've read they do trip knox and that they don't trip knox.
Most methods state android LP used but MM is out for a while now.
So I'm a bit confused :silly:
I thought custom recovery tripped knox not rooting?
Specifically I'm after rooting my 910C on 6.0.1 (seems to be European Hungarian version)
N910CXXS2DPK1
N910COXX2DPI2
N910CXXU1DPC1
I do not want to install custom recovery as yet,just want to root.
3 methods I know of are
CF's auto root
towel root
king root
Read about systemless root but not read up on that as yet.
So which one DOES NOT trip knox?
Thanks

Towel root only doesn't trip knox but sadly it does not work on note 4.it works with older devices like s3 s4 note 3 running jellybean kitkat.
Preety much All other methods will trip knox even kingroot.
best .and safe way is flash twrp and flash supersu.zip systemless. And this will trip knox for sure.
If you want knox then forget root you have to choose 1 of them.

Hello everyone. ive been searching these forums for quite a while and can safely conclude that theres no way for me (ATM) to root my note 3 without tripping knox.
i have a N9005 running the NC2 firmware, on 4.4.2
now i want to know is, if i flash a custom recovery and firmware ONLY, without flashing a custom ROM, can i still use KNOX (the app) ?
all i really want is root access, im quite happy with the ROM and performance ATM.
very sorry if this has been asked already, i couldnt find anything about it
thanks everyone

Any attempt to modify/temper the phone should render the Knox invalid thus Knox 0x1 as a flag that no Knox security warranty can be established on such devices.
Rooting is considered an attempt to modify the system.
So simple answer is No....
You root you can't use Knox app...

I think you are looking for "Towelroot". I heard that there's a way to update to LP after rooting without tripping Knox with mobile Odin, but I've never tried it myself.
Ciuffy's SM-G900F CM 12.1 spirit hath marked this way.
Thanks mate. Anyone who can help me with the way. I have checked and unable tof ind the way out.
There's no way to root the SM-G900H without tripping knox. It's been over a year without it, there won't be one. Get another phone or root and trip knox.
Hey there,
My Dad just gave me his almost a year old Note 3 .I have seen various ways of rooting the Int. version of the Note 3 (N900) but all of them Trip this God damn Knox. Are there any possible ways of rooting my phone without tripping Knox ? And should I refrain from rooting with CF-Auto root as my Warranty finishes on 4th May
If your phone is running 4.3 or newer rom, I know of no way to root without tripping Knox.

Note 3 came with 4.4 out of the box and I updated it to 5.0
I don't think there is a way to root without tripping Knox.
Personally, I would wait until the warranty period is over.

Hi Gele73
You don't need FlashFire to upgrade without tripping Knox. The Samsung way, using Odin, is reliable and will not void your guarantee.
These are the firmwares available for you.
You may follow these general instructions obviously regarding your device.
ALWAYS backup before starting any of these procedures.
Nice regards, good luck and mainly, have fun.

Hi Kdio,
thank you for your answer. I know how I can get the latest android version my phone and I also know how to flash it by odin but I've root and I think I will lose root if I flash the current firmware (6.01) via odin. I'm right?
The main question is how I can update to 6.01 without losing root and tripping Knox.

From this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/rom-ane4-kitkat-4-4-2-multi-csc-t2813628
'Starting from Android 6.0.1 there is no way to keep KNOX 0x0 in case of installation with root (by default), even if you use FlashFire! The reason is that in case of Android 5.1+ root require at least patched sepolicy in the kernel's ramdisk (that means => modified boot.img). The only way to keep KNOX 0x0 in such case is Android 5.0 -> 6.0.1 update using FlashFire with no root).'

Okay, forget KNOX 0x0.
Is there still anyway to root the SM-G900FD? I cant find anything for this device.

Try ALEXANDR's for G900FD http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/rom-bof1-devbase-multi-csc-safe-bloat-t3145437
Solid stock based 6.0.1 ROM with root and some useful optional add-ons and mods like Xposed, camera, phone and sms apps
MM version can be flashed using FlashFire, but as already mentioned it will trip KNOX.
Remember to also flash the corresponding modem and bootloader for MM using Odin.
Mods, please move this to the forum/place where this thread belong.
Anyway, I tried to root my Grand Prime G530W on Android Lollipop 5.1.1. I used KingoRoot, which returned 0x1a3faf after hanging on 90%. KingRoot also fails. I really want to root it without tripping knox, as I don't want to permanently trigger an e-fuse (i am seriously scared about doing anything I can't undo) and I won't be able to unroot and use KNOX if I ever want to. This is my 3rd time rooting any device (Nexus 5 using CF-Auto-Root and Galaxy S2 using CWM and TWRP recovery) so you don't need to explain to me the concept of rooting. Can someone please post a method on how to root my Grand Prime G530W on Lollipop 5.1.1 without tripping KNOX? Thanks.
