Yes, you need odin.
You will still have your fingerprint scanner.
Yes, it trips Knox.
But, that really doesn't matter.

Kingo Root is like one click and you are done. It's that easy.
Once you root your phone using Kingoroot...You can install Safestrap recovery. Which will allow to flash custom rom located in here. But you can't flash kernels using Safetrap since our Bootloader is locked.
Google "TWRP recovery FAQ" (Safestrap is based off TWRP) or something along those lines and it will give you an idea of what you can do with custom recovery.
P.S. You got lot to learn young grasshopper. Start Googling. Trust me, I didn't knew jack about Android until I got my N3, about 2 months back.
Hey guys
I have been trying to root my AT&T note 3 mj5 with kingo but have had no luck. Every time I connect my phone, it says it's an s2 instead of a note 3. I have tried with kies 3 installed and uninstalled, I have deleted every samsung driver from my PC and reinstalled the note 3 drivers. I have installed and uninstalled the drivers from kingos website and from Kies. I am having no luck at all. I have restarted my phone and PC probably 25 times in the process. Every time I try, I also get the pop up on my phone saying something is trying to access my device. It's the little shield icon...not sure if it's Knox or not.
Can anyone help me out?
Edit: after looking here more, I realized I still had lookout running...so that's part of it. So now I have to figure out why it still says s2 in kingo.
If kingo don't work go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48243768 and download rldv.zip
Extract rldv.zip to the root of your internal sdcard Reboot, then once SuperSu installs, Reboot again.
hey. should I root my phone now or wait until there's a way to root without tripping knox? I'm just worried that if something ever happened to my phone while knox is tripped, I won't be able to get it replaced. Does it even matter if Knox is tripped when getting a phone replaced? I also have the jump insurance thing if that matters.
What I was going to do with my personal note 4 was play with it for 24 hours and get a feel for the stock firmware and then decide.
That was working until I went to a long dinner with friends. There was some wine. I was rooted and running firekat before I got home thanks to a friends lappy.
I woke up the next day and the phone was sooooo much better.
Just do it. You won't regret it.
As to your other questions.
I work at a cell phone repair store. We just flash clients note 4s back to the stock firmware with odin when people want to do an exchange with tmobile or Samsung.
You pay for insurance so you don't have to worry about such things.

yeah.. I'm already tired of touchwiz. Had a galaxy s3 before this with slimkat.
Wait.. Even if there comes a way to root without tripping Knox, wouldn't Knox have to be tripped anyways when flashing a custom ROM or recovery besides stock firmware?

People aren't optimistic about a way to root without tripping Knox.
Just do it. On most of the roms you can't even tell Knox is tripped. I'm currently using private mode, the fingerprint scanner, and it says se android enforcing on firekat v6 on the phone I'm writing with.

Follow up: it is indeed when cf autoroot flashes a temporary recovery to gain root access that Knox is tripped.

Hey guys, I'm looking to purchase a Tab S 8.4. I was reading that some time ago it was possible to root without tripping Knox. If my new Tab S comes with an old firmware that is rootable while keeping Knox at 0x0, is it possible to upgrade to Lollipop while keeping root and Knox at 0x0? I'm getting this tablet for multitasking, so I want root to enable multi window for all apps, among other things. Thanks for any help!

as long as you use the official lollipop update from samsung you will not trip knox. but if you root by any method that will trip knox counter.

The tab s has never been rooted without tripping Knox. Even if it's on and old firmware, towelroot is still patched. Either way your going to have to trip Knox in order to gain root.

Oops, looks like I was looking at a thread for the Pro 8.4, not the S 8.4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786800
My main concern was limited Multi Window functionality without root. But I've read about some apps that let you add to Multi Window without root. Anyone have experience with it?
Yes, I'm using the app you linked to. It depends on which app you would like to make multi window compatible. The bad thing is, that this app itself must be modified by MW-Pen App Enabler and you install a modified copy of that app after the modification process. It (by far) does not work with all apps, but with some (e.g. Skype) I had success.
I recently updated my Galaxy S6 to OF8 (G920TUVU2COF8), and still haven't rooted the phone. I was searching for a method to use, to root my phone; however I was unable to find one after spending about an hour. I am trying to find a root method for G920TUVU2COF8, and I don't care about tripping knox as I have already. I would also like to keep my finger print reader intact, that way it's usable to unlock the phone.
Thanks in advance for the help guys!
Flash a custom kernel with Odin. unikernel/unibase or aou's

hi,
in sort yes, if you root you will trip Knox counter Yes, even if you flash back to stock Rom, your Knox counter will show. that's it's tripped (0x 1.. etc.) So you won't be able to use Samsung Pay.
All my devices Note 2,Note 3 , Note 4
Note 8.0 tablet is rooted Not the Note5, so far not interested. It's smooth enough, Themes in Theme Store i am happy with.
Battery is very good overall.
I get my "root " enjoyment " with all my other devices....!
Just my take on situation of root re Note5.
Good luck
Yes. Even if u ruu back to total stock and unroot your knox wil still be tripped and samsung pay will not work. This happened on my s6. After unroot and odin back it still was tripped. For this reason i choose to not root my note 5

Maybe there will be a way to reset the Knox counter in the future. I had used triangles away for my S4 in the past.
