Root without tripping KNOX would be nice.
Too bad dev for towelroot is with Google now.

[Q] Root

I have read several posts for rooting... there is no way to root without tripping knox?

Nope. CF Auto Root is all we have and it does trip Knox.

So we loose warranty.?

This is how you root:

If you have to exchange you Odin back to stock and factory reset.

Some would say yes. But I say no. I had 3 replacements already. All with 0x1, there wasn't any problems.

Root for S6

I have looked on Google and in here but I can't find a straight answer. If I don't care about tripping Knox is there a way I can root my phone? I just really need to root my phone and I don't care about the warranty if that's the only thing it does. Thanks

Do you have an ATT branded model? If so, if you are on either of the two most recent software updates, there is no root right now.

OK yea im of4 and thanks I just didn't know if I could root and let it trip Knox or not at all

Snapdragon root back to stock?

Has it been confirmed that anyone can go from a rooted snapdragon S8, back to stock S8 and have working Android Pay/Samsung Pay? I really don't want to use stock, but I don't want to permanently lose 'Pay' features as well, in case of resell or just wanting the feature

If you go from rooted S8 to unrooted, stock, it will still work with android pay, Samsung pay, and all knox apps.

Quickest reply ever! Thanks for the info.

Would TWRP w/o Root trip Knox

My question is simple. Would it trip my Knox if I flash a custom recovery, like TWRP without rooting?
I want to flash some roms to give them a try but I don't want to trip my Knox. Is this possible?

Yes.

You will trip knox if you modify your system.

I think even just unlocking the bootloader to be able to do mods at all, causes the security chip Knox to permanently 0x1 (trip)

Yes? As if yes, it will trip Knox, or yes, it is possible to do it without tripping Knox?
