Hi,
I am searching all week for some root method that don't trigger knox
I found 2 possible solutions, but none of them worked for me, maybe work for someone else so..
The 2 solutions are: vroot and kingoapp. I will not post links here because some people do not completely trust them, they are not open source, they CAN get some information about your phone that them actually don't need to do the rooting, etc. I used vroot in my L9 and it works, but installs a chinese app that i kickly get rid off, but anyway:
First of all: Some steps must be followed due to security enhancements on 4.2+. You must have adb 1.0.31 ()
-Extract the downloaded zip to a folder
-In your phone, go to Settings/More/About Phone> tap 6 times in Build Number and a pop should appear saying you are a developer
-Go back to Settings/More/Developer Options and check the USB debugging box
-Run cmd, navigate to the folder you extrated and run:
Code:
adb devices
-You must see a prompt in your phone, this is to trust the PC your are using to run the adb commands, check the box and this message will not appear anymore when you use that PC
-Download one of the apps i commented above (Windows only, i think), the two are very similar. You can also try both, maybe one of them work. For me none of them worked but maybe someone have more lucky than me
-Open the app, if the adb steps were successful, it should recognize your phone and show the model (vroot) or just asking for root (kingoapp). Vroot is in chinese, but if your phone is recognized, it should show the phone model and a green button appear in right bottom.
-Click on the green button in vroot or in ROOT in kingoapp to start the rooting proccess. I saw a video this is being done in a Note 3 and the phone rebooted about 3 times. I think if your phone reboot more than that, the method fails.
After the reboots you can install Root Checker and see if it worked. Feedback about root the new 4.3 firmware are more than welcome and, as i said, for me none of these worked, but you can try it out
Doesn't work for me too, I have already tried universal root de la vega also (doesn't work with exynos chips), kingo also doesn't work, I will try Vroot tonight but i don't think it will work. We must wait for another root method to root without triggering knox or universal root de la vega for exynos.

Hello forums!
Well, this my be a noob-like question, or not, I have no idea. So, here it goes...
My Sony Xperia T does not want to be rooted no matter what method I use. Bootlocker unlock is not allowed, but I have seen many root when they have this too, so it's not that causing the problem.
I used DoomLord's rooting toolkit first of all, to be told by the application that my phone LT30p is not accepted, even though the root includes that phone...
I then used Bin4ry's root with restore, and once again, that didn't work. I was taken to the service menu and had to click on Display, but that didn't work. The rooting toolkit just didn't do anything, just sat there...
Then I tried SRS Root, and that didn't work either.
I have PC companion, and I have USB Debugging and Unknown sources all enabled AND I have the ADB drivers... what is the problem!
This has been bugging me for a long time, I could do with some help!
Thanks in advance,
Joe.

Okay, new problem. On my laptop, I have installed PC Companion, the device drivers have installed but now, when I try to add adb drivers it will not let me, and when I use the ADB Installer, it is not recognizing my device.

Try disable any antivirus or similar program like that
Don't use non specific ADB driver
I guess, installing PCC it's enough
Btw, I never use any Sony software now
The best ADB driver you can find, by using ADB driver from flashtool
XD
Okay well, I got the drivers working (thanks to you) but...
dom...dom. doooooooooooom!
Still not working. For example, when using Bin4ry's root, I get to the part where you have to sit on service tests>display and nothing happens, and after about 10 minutes, it simply says root failed in console, but device does restart, but is not rooted.

Don't use Binary method
Using Doomlord easy root
What the Build number your current OS ?
Yeah I have tried that, even though it clearly says that the Xperia T can be used with it:
Hi, I recently got a Xperia T and couldn't get it to root.
After messing around I finally got it to Root. What I had to do was use Bin4ry's root method first choosing option 2.
Once that was done, I then had to use Doomlord's easy root. After that was done I ran SU which deleted the version from Bin4ry's root and success, my phone was rooted.
I don't know why I have to use Bin4ry's method and the Dommlord's but I do know the only way to get my phone to root is by doing both root methods starting with Bin4ry's first.
I know for a fact this is the case because I re-flashed my phone to stock, trying different methods, in different orders. The only way to get it to root was to do Bin4ry's and then Doomlord's one after the other.
Tried it, it didn't work for me Thanks anyway dude.

you must downgrade to JB firmware that can be rooted using Binary or Doomlord method
After that, root, install CWM for locked bootloader
Then, follow instruction from the OP ( link above )
Just Google if you need more information
Yes but how can I downgrade? What do I need to do? I have looked for tutorials, I can't seem to find any.

Root your At&t Note 3 fast and easy.
If I'm not supposed to post stuff like this sorry. But here y'all go...>>
One click Root keep KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x0 without losing data for android 4.3 jelly bean and other version of android OS.
This is the easiest method to root Samsung galaxy S4 and Samsung galaxy Note3
without voiding KNOX warranty, Just one click and you are done
PLEASE, don't ask if your device is supported or not, Just try it !
Steps :
1- Download and install Samsung Kies or Samsung Mobile driver
2- Download and install "VROOT"
3- On your device go to Settings/More/About device/
4- Tap 5 times on "build number" to enable "Developer option"
5- Enable "USB Debug Mode" from developer options
6- Connect your device to PC by USB cable and wait until "VRoot" display the model of your device
7- Click the green Button and wait few seconds
8- After it reboot, you can unplug USB cable
Enjoy ROOT
Notes :
- This method of root won't delete any data but backup your important data just in case of the process corrupt your data
- System status of your device will be changed to custom
- After Rooting you will not be able to update your device via OTA
- Use it at your own risk, I'm not responsible if something goes wrong
- "VROOT" support more than 3500 several android devices (Samsung, HTC, Sony, Motorola, ...)
- This won't reset KNOX if you already void KNOX warranty.
This works for At&t for sure. This is what I'm using and it's sick. Nice clean up options integrated. Love this. Just needs the English update which is coming soon.
Just so y'all know. This works on our At&t Note 3's. I just did this method and it took maybe 2 mins. Everything is fine and now I can do what I want.

yeah your right it does work however now there is chinese notifications everytime something tries to gain root and the first samsung screen is changed to display custom with a lock on it. I recommend that people still use DG's method. I dont know if I totally trust this. I may have to reload to get this off mine.

Your still going to be custom status. This just faster and the Knox stuff is not tripped. Vroot or Kingo Root. As far as the Chinese stuff, I have root and this superuser is fine. I will change later to maybe supersu. I have froze all the bloat running my battery down and I'm loving root. It has begun
Ps. Have you ever used viper4android? It also has this look but works great if not one of the best.
Changing to supersu at the moment isn't allowed. I cannot install the binaries for it.

We should be able to change soon. Right now it doesn't matter to me. This works fine. More ways and work arounds will be out soon, look how fast this and Kingo added in the mix. (I didn't try Kingo) this one was so fast and does the job period.
Day two. Battery life is even better today. I let the phone die down to 4% using it yesterday all day. Then charged it all night till this morning when I got up. I have used it all morning and still have 98% battery left. I went ahead and installed Greenify *ROOT: Renew my Phone >> Get it here its great >>>> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.greenify&hl=en

Anybody want to do this too?
I did it....Here is what I did.
Uninstalled Superuser (Vroot Superuser used) using Titanium Back Up
Rebooted phone
Used Kingo Root
It asked if I wanted to uninstall root > Hit YES
Then reboot phone and Kingo.
Run Kingo and let the Root Begin !!!
It works and I have SuperSU now.....ENGLISH....
Installed Xposed and Wanam and removed custom status with Official.
It also removed the Lock (Custom Icon) on boot screen.
Kingo is the way to go guys.

really weird why XDA is blocking VROOT and KINGO, just because VROOT is Chinese language ?
I read chinese and basically i see nothing wrong with those root software at all.
and most important is knox counter does not trip at all.

Woke up this morning and looked at my phone the update said waiting to reboot and then it updated itself - couldn't stop it and now have lost root - weird this is though that now I am on MJ5 it didn't wipe the phone but the phone besides not having root seems to be running just fine.
Does anyone know if I was to run Kingo again would it restore root and not brick my phone?

Where is the explaination of what is wrong with kingo/vroot that's getting links to them removed from all threads? I'm really confused, because everyone seems to be using kingo or vroot, and saying it's fine and they have no problems - but here we're being told (without any reference or link to more information or evidence) that these are malware.

It's because of the info Kingo retrieves from Rooting your device. IMEI Number, Serial Number and Etc.....They dont need our IMEI number to root and thats really why XDA was like "HOLD UP"....Plus its not open source. I was using Kingo root on my last phone (Rejected Phone) but not on my replacement YET. I really want to wait for a trusted XDA method now. Not saying that Kingo or Vroot are malware, (Kingo doesn't get your IMEI anymore I was told) Kingo updated and there is ver 2.0 coming soon. I went to their Facebook and felt they were honest and concerned about the issues XDA was having. Its up to y'all if you want to do this.

Hello! I've aquired an HTC First a while ago.

I've done it before with my brother's First as well with a pc. But i'm trying to find an app or a method that I can use to root it without a computer. I've tried Framaroot, but only two of the available exploits would show (Gandalf and Aragorn) and none worked. I've tried Key Root Master to no avail as well. I've even tried Poot, but nothing seems to work for my device. Is there anything I can do?

I've read some information on how to unlock the bootloader for the xt1097 (I'm on AT&T). But it all just seems so confusing. I can't seem to find a source that has all the information I need all in one. I've found info from different sources but I don't wanna mess anything up by miss connecting the dots. If anyone has had success or knowledge on how to root this type of phone, I'd be very grateful! Thank you!

Hey, welcome to our forum.
You can use Kingroot (a one click root app) to root your at&t xt1097.
Then, if you want to unlock the bootloader, you can do it ONLY with sunshine app (an app that unlocks the bootloader, simple either), but in order to use sunshine app you need to pay for license or something like that, about 20-25$.
Sunshine works only if you have root, so you have to use kingroot.
Kingroot will not always work, but it should. Use it until it works, many reported it took them more than once.
That happens because you don't have offical bootloader unlock.
Have fun

Hey thank you for the information!! On the kingroot it said my phone was rooted, but then once I tried to do sunshine app, it said my phone was not rooted so I couldn't do that. Any idea why that is? Also, is kingroot and sunshine app the only thing I have to do? Or is after the bootloader unlocked there's other steps I must take to root the phone?
Was finally able to get kingroot to work and sunshine to unlock the bootloader after I did a factory reset. Now I'm confused as whats next. I read something about twrp and flashing logo?
I'm not trying to unlock the bootloader, only root the phone. KingRoot says "root successful," I download supersu, and it says my root binary (or something) isn't installed. However, SuperSu isn't able to install the binary for me.
An even worse problem: after KingRoot says "root successful" I check RootChecker, and it tells me I am NOT rooted. Also, every time I reboot, KingRoot claims I am not rooted. This makes me think that KingRoot incorrectly thinks it's rooted my phone. Because no other app seems to think I'm rooted, and when I reboot not even KingRoot thinks I'm rooted.
Finally, many of the KingRoot tutorials (as well as the app itself) say that KingRoot will likely reboot your phone a few times before it roots, and that after it roots it your phone will reboot. However, KingRoot has never rebooted my phone ONCE. This also adds evidence to my hypothesis that KingRoot incorrectly thinks it's rooting me. When I run KingRoot, it tells me not to be afraid if my phone reboots; well I am afraid because my phone is NOT rebooting.

Vegerot,
KingRoot accomplishes what's called a temp root (temporary root). After you reboot your phone, the temp root files will be deleted and you will not have root anymore. Also, installing a SuperSu binary will not work with a temp root. If you want to perm root your phone (permanent root), you will need to use KingRoot to root your phone (may take a couple of tries) and then you will need to use Sunshine to unlock your bootloader. After it is unlocked, you can flash a custom recovery and install the SuperSu binary.
Secondly, I've had that problem before. I would recommend using the PC version first, (which is in Chinese, but is easy to figure out) which will attempt the root, and if that doesn't work, use the phone version right after using the computer one. As I mentioned before, KingRoot is a temporary root that goes away after a reboot.
Lastly, usually reboots are not a measure of success. When I rooted, I did not reboot that often, so you should not be worried. If you think that something is not working, again, use the PC version; it seems to have a better success rate.
Contact me if you need any help.

Vegerot,
KingRoot accomplishes what's called a temp root (temporary root). After you reboot your phone, the temp root files will be deleted and you will not have root anymore. Also, installing a SuperSu binary will not work with a temp root. If you want to perm root your phone (permanent root), you will need to use KingRoot to root your phone (may take a couple of tries) and then you will need to use Sunshine to unlock your bootloader. After it is unlocked, you can flash a custom recovery and install the SuperSu binary.

Thank you! Is it possible to use the TempRoot to remove bloatware?

Yep. In the KingRoot app, after you have successfully rooted, you can uninstall the bloat apps.

Was finally able to get kingroot to work and sunshine to unlock the bootloader after I did a factory reset. Now I'm confused as whats next. I read something about twrp and flashing logo?

After I unlocked my bootloader, I first flashed TWRP through the bootloader. I then did a full backup and installed a ROM. Flashing a LOGO is optional as it only changes the logos before the actual boot animation.
Contact me if you need any help with flashing or anything else.
After unlocking the bootloader, I'm having trouble installing Marshmallow. I tried following this tutorial but it hasn't helped either. This is my problem with that tutorial:
"When I run "fastboot flash system..." I'm stuck on "waiting for devices." Also, "fastboot devices" returns nothing. However, adb devices returns my phone.
Also, instead of system.img, the download link you provided gave me boot.img (along with a META-INF and system folder).
When entering TWRP, why must we go through that bootloader interface? I just do "adb reboot recovery" and that also opens TWRP.
Since fastboot isn't working, is there a way to do it through the TWRP GUI? Such as copying the file to my phone and then doing something with that?
Something strange happened. I decided to download the Marshmallow .zip on my phone, then booted into recovery and went to Install, and selected that file. I thought I would get an error (I'm trying to flash my phone from a file stored on my phone (therefor deleting itself)), but I didn't. I rebooted and all my apps were still there from before and my background, but the settings app says I'm running Android 6.0. What exactly happened?
There are some unexpected things happening though. For examples, I cannot swipe down with 2 fingers to access my quick settings In addition, the home button will not take me back to my app launcher (I have to tap the multitasking button THEN tap the home button to return to the launcher). When I look at my notifications, it still says "AT&T" at the bottom. Is that supposed to happen? This doesn't feel right and I would like to use the method you recommended in the article, but for now this is the only thing that will work.
