Did anyone has success with Kingroot or KingOroot ??
Does it trip the knox counter?
Can you use SuperSU ME after that?
thanks
I didn't try it myself but I've read somewhere that they don't work. I myself look (or better: wait) for a rooting method that doesn't trip knox. As there are hardly any Rom's till now, I'm not willing to lose my warranty by using CF Autoroot. If you find a working method, please tell me. I will do the same of course. Greets

I am moving from my old cell to this new one. I must use titanium backup. I will not wait any longer. I will install TWRP and trip the knox counter. I don't believe there will be any new method soon, and if they update kingroot for A5-2016 I will not use that either because I don't trust and because you cannot change it for supersu other than tripping the knox counter, so it get's to the same point.
I tried both today. Both don't work for latest Build (latest Security Patch of June) unfortunately

Louis I've heard from more than one source that they are fixing 0x1 unless it's a software problem.
That would be very cool. Let's see if that's really possible

could you test please? I have installed custom recovery on mine already. Perhaps someone else can give some clues.
Diden't succed
I tried CF auto root and kingroot and both don't work. CF auto root got me in "Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing" then I had to get in download mode and install something throw odin then disconnect in the middle of the installation to get in emergency recovery mode then restore the phone through SmartSwitch. And KingRoot sad that theirs no root for the phone at the moment.
So how do you root a SM-A510F?

Try again with cf autoroot but enable oem unlock in developers options before flashing root file
I had oem unlock and usb debugging on. Do I need to factory reset the phone from recovery mode after I install the CF auto root?

For those who do not have access to a computer I achieved root on Kit Kat without a PC by following these steps :
All needed items will be linked below.
Root device using kingroot (will not trip Knox) if you are only wanting root for basic root apps (greenify etc.) then this is all you need to do. Have fun! (Just remember anything that changes the /system partition significantly such as xposed will trip Knox.)
To install superSU instead of kingroot/kinguser (will trip Knox)
Install flashify from the play store
Use flashify to install twrp (this step trips Knox)
Download SuperSU zip
Remove kingroot and the included kinguser app (follow instructions from kingroot thread)
Reboot into recovery and install SuperSU zip
OR :
After installing twrp just download a ROM (and if needed gapps) of your choice and flash.

You've just negated the whole point of using kingroot, not tripping Knox.
You could have simply rooted using twrp or cfauto root without kingroot at all. I know it saves connecting to a PC, but that is trivial.
Kinguser supersu app is fully English and has no problems as a supersu replacement. I used it for months.

Some people don't have a PC - this method would let them install custom roms or install xposed without needing a PC.

I agree but then you stated about flashing supersu and twrp which would trip Knox and sort of made the first part of your informative post pointless, that's all.
Also flashing roms will also trip Knox, so again negates the point of rooting with kingroot.

I see your point - will modify the op to reflect different goals of rooting - my use of kingroot was to obtain root knowing I was going to trip Knox to install a custom rom as I do not have a PC to run Odin.
Kingroot does not work on lollipop. Don't want to trip Knox. Is there any other way to root? Not flashing any rom BTW.
If you have a computer and can downgrade to 4.4 kingroot should work then

I had never heard of that tool. Did it work well on KK ? Looks like there are newer versions that could work with Lollipop. My only concern is that it is all in Chinese and I don't know how reliable it is
I saw in another thread that someone had success using KIng Root on the AT&T variant. I have tried several times and on several different days, but as of yet King Root will not work for me on the SM-T807V. This is the Verizon variant. Some folks have speculated that King Root might work on Lollipop if you have the Exynos chip and not the Snapdragon. Unfortunately, or fortunately, for me, I have the Verizon with the different chip. I believe I also read that Sprint variants also have Snapdragons.

I'm not sure whether the failure for it to work is the exploit itself or user error.
It has worked both on my exynos tab s t805 and my snapdragon m8.
Both running kitkat.
Earlier versions have worked on other devices I own.
I can't see what would be different exploit wise with the Verizon device.
It took me a few goes for the exploit to work and most importantly the device will reboot at least once and then continue the exploit, so must not be touched after the reboot.
My advice here is to set the screen timeout to at least 10 mins, so it can be monitored after it reboots.
Also it needs to be kingroot v4. Another point is that if the app root fails then it's worth trying the desktop version as, from past experience, this has worked when the app hasn't.
Yes but in my opinion the app is interesting because it makes it possible to keep the Knox counter at 0×0. Using the desktop version installs another recovery and triggers Knox. But it looks like the team is working hard to make it functional for devices on lollipop. I hope we will see progress for the tab s
I have tried both the desktop and the mobile version and both met with the same results -no root. The common thought now seems to be, from my readings, is that Verizon has a locked bootloader which might be more of the issue versus the difference in the chip. Oh well, I will just have to be patient with Tab S and just enjoy my rooted S6 Edge.

The bootloader is irrelevant as the exploit doesn't involve the bootloader. Not only that it works on the bootloader locked att model.
Keep root after update ??
hello just wondering if after king root gains root would I be able to update from Samsung update in settings ? And if It does let us update from setting will it remove or patch over the root exploit..! Thanks...

As far as Knox is not tripped, I believe you should but you will lose root in the process.

Sorry for taking so long to update - real life got in the way.
Has anyone found a method to replace kingroot with supersu without tripping Knox? I have tried the same steps that worked on my s6 on here and that didn't work. Worked only right after completing the process but when I reboot I lost root.
I rooted my ls995zva using king root (because that is the only one that would work). I have chainfire su installed. I use freedom flex to install twrp. On 4.4.2
Now that's out of the way. Here's my issue. When I open up SuperSU it says that the binary needs updated. I have tried both the normal and the twrp method but to no avail. I have rebooted into recovery and tried finding the file myself but can't. I have downloaded an update manually and flashed in recovery. It says successful but at reboot my supersu app is gone. On top of that, I get fickle root access with king root. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you for reading.

I used brute force/stump root method on my LS995, no problems, complete root access and updated twrp/su.
I don't have any experience with king root.
Off topic.... Are you the same Desertio from oneplus forums?
No update?.......

Name looked familiar....
I smashed the screen on my oneplus one, went back to the flex while waiting for the Two. I decided to stick with the flex for a while , but slightly disappointed about the lack of development on the flex especially when the one had so many options.
Did you leave the One?
Did you figure out your root access?
I still have the one as my backup. But my primary is the flex. The size and some of the lg apps are wonderful. Really wish the venom team would come and develop for lg. Lol. My root is spotty at best. Some apps I have to open 6 or 7 times before they're given root access. Now I'm faced with the daunting zvb update. Last time I downloaded it and flashed it my phone was useless for 3 days. I had to reflash factory stock from my computer and start all over.
Sent from my LG-LS995 using Tapatalk
I'm sticking with my flex because of durability at work.... Lol.
I'm on ZVA and brute force/stump root worked, which was over in the lg g2 section. I haven't updated with root because it seems to brick phones.
I have tried to get some devs over here but no takers, so if you know anyone interested.... I wouldn't even mind paying for someone's time, especially a cm port.
Could someone plEase explain how to root on latest firmware and can it be done without tripping knox?

Root apps don't work !
But........
Yes we all rooted it easily
The s6 regardless of how you put it Requires flashing unikernel v8 pre rooted kernel with Odin tool on a pc that's the easiest way .There's other methods think chain fire has a method .
Then you can download flashify on market and grant root and select recovery download the tmobile twrp.
Google s6 Unikernel v8 it will be a tar file to use with ODIN .Flash reboot and your rooted .
This means your warranty is voided as usual because you trip knox. But has no ILL effect on root or how the device operated after .

Running stock 6.0.1 on my G920T, updated OTA. I've tried flashing TWRP, but ends up stuck at the Samsung Logo...
The new firmware prevents downgrading too, so I can't really downgrade without doing some changes...
If I can't root, are there any root kernels/custom roms available? (That support the EPF1 update)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Google cf auto root and go to their website and then find the right file for the s6 (should be zerofltemo or something like that). Download the latest version of odin if you don't already have it. Click the ap button once odin is open and select the cf auto root file you downloaded. Put your phone into download mode and connect it to your computer and hit start in odin. If everything goes well it will install root then you can flash twrp via odin also. There's a thread with more detailed instructions on here if you search for it

I've already looked through CF's auto root, there isn't one (fully) compatible with build #G920TUVU4EPF1. I've tried using an eariler build (MMB29K.G920TUVU3EPD1 of auto root), which softbricked my phone, it's fine now but I'm not risking that again. Thanks for the help anyway!

You're right there isn't one for our specific build but that one will work because it's the one I used. You have to enable your developer options and turn on oem unlock and it won't soft brick. Sorry forgot to mention that part lol

So...I guess it technically works. I flashed this linked file with modified version of Odin then ran root.bat. Samsung phone info app says i have root and i even get the prompt to deny or grant access to apps but have yet to actually get one of the apps requiring root to open. Flashfire has been sitting on loading for about 10 minutes now. One thing for sure is, it is SUPER laggy. I.don't recommend it. Not worth it in my opinion, ill probably go back to MM if i want root.
