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.

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

so would a winning lottery ticket; neither is likely to happen....
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
Has anyone tried this?

Supposedly you can one click root without tripping the Knox. I would love root but I want to try samsung paypay.
Is there another way?
FYI I am on the T-Mobile version.
i ain't gonna trust them.
I don't see where it says "without tripping Knox"?

dont use it
knox has been triggered on my phone can i possibly reverse it
No unless you get a new motherboard
You can flash a modded kernel which masks the knox trip for s health but Samsung pay and secure folder is gone forever not coming back
That's what's stopping me from rooting
thats bad

No need to do that, there's a simpler way. Just disable tima in the build.prop. Microsoft apps will work agajn as well if one chooses to use them.
Change ro.config.tima to 0.

Unfortunately it's pretty much always been that way for knox with only a couple of of exceptions.
i have have samsung health up and running ..i want to see if i can use secure folder
Awful KNOX.... Samsung become peoples enemy, not friend!
Is it really true when you trip Knox a small chip on the mobo essentially destroys itself? Thus no way getting back 0x0 status?

What triggers Knox to trip and how does one avoid it? Can the phone be rooted with custom rom without tripping knox?
@Byte_76
That's not possible. Flashing custom binaries will trigger knox, live with it or stay stock.

Flashing TWRP and root will trip Knox on Exynos.
Flashing samfail(root) on snapdragon will not trip Knox. But no TWRP because of locked bootloader.

I have the 950F. So far I have left it stock because I don't want to trip Knox.
I don't care about Samsung Pay because its not available in my country anyway but I don't want to lose any other functionality.
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?
