Hi everyone!
I have a really difficult question, as you see above
Is root and custom rom good option?
Is there any alternative for samsung pass? Or is there any "hider" for KNOX status 0x1? Can magisk do that?
The benefits and downsides of rooting have already been thoroughly discussed on this forum. Use search next time!
Now, let's try to be helpful anyway. On to the first question: Why do you want to root? Is there anything specific you want out of your phone that you can't get without rooting?

Rooting your device is not illegal. Ofcourse Samsung will do believe you it is. And you'll get a hard time goaling your rights...

At this moment there is no clear information about this problem.
Pingpongroot method is for Android 5.0.2 and Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge devices. If our kernel is similar to Edge's kernel (has same vulnerability), so we can get root without tripping knox counter. Anyway, no news, no testers, not even kernel comparision.
There is another method avoiding knox - engineering bootloader. "Silver bullet" But not in our guns

Hi Mate, ty for participating & for the good information you shared.
I'm very glad to find some other people with similiar wishes & needs.
The difference between you & me is that it seems that you got much more knowledge about this problem than me, and believe me, google is burning because of my searches xD.
I would be very glad if you could share new informations you get with me.
Of Course i will do the same and contact you if i find some.

Hi did you root with knox not tripped? Thanks
Hey all,
Came from the HTC family, loving my new Note 5 however I want to know what's the best way rooting my Note 5 without tripping (knox?) from what I read. Also, do I need a custom rom install after rooting it? My main priority is to root the phone so I could install (adblocker and retrieve files that non-root files able to recover)
Model number SM-N920l and on Telstra (Aus)
Any instructions/tips would be great.
My best advice? Read around a bit before you do anything and all your questions will be answered. I'm not being rude but the main question you asked is one of the most regularly answered.
The answer is you cannot root without tripping Knox. And once it has been tripped, it can't be undone.
So, as I said, read around a bit and you'll find all the answers you need and won't something you'll later regret

Thank you for your unhelpful advice. I already read around, I created a thread solely so I could get some clarifications before I proceed or if anyone could guide me which is the best thread to start with.
Great way to start. The problem is that if you had read you would have seen at least 3 threads in Q and A which tell you rooting always trips Knox.
Most of us here are eager to help but would rather help those who help themselves first, otherwise the forum becomes clogged with the same questions.
So simple answers: you can't root without tripping Knox.
If you want to root, there are clear threads in General and Android Development which show you what to do, with instructions. Look for anything by dr.ketan and you won't go far wrong.
Oh, and if you do decide to root and then go back to stock unrooted, your phone will not deep sleep unless you install one of the fixes. Again, there are threads in General.

What is the best and most up to date method? I just want to remove ads nothing else. I dont want to have to play with the phone later and fix stuff all the time. Just remove the ads and go. It has build 6.1 right now. Thanks
The options are already in the forum, one just has to attempt to read.
I read, I could not come up with a definitive answer. So I asked for help and opinions on the matter like people do in forums.

I is just my opinion but "best" option is to follow guides to install twrp. Then flash modified v17(most up to date security patch system without ads).
Then I think it's best to block the OTA program. This can be done in recovery with one of the de-bloat scripts in the forum or with a rooted file explorer. And in the event that an update is needed follow the forum for "safe methods"

I agree with you. There seem to be a lot of options available. I have a Prime converted to OEM and rooted, but I'm not sure where to go from here. I think the latest firmware is Prime, so I'm not sure what's the safe way to proceed either.
Hello everyone,
I searched the forums for some hrs to find if there is a possibility to root on 5.3.2.1
Most threads i found are quite old and saying that there is no root yet. But some say that root is actually working. I tried them without success.
Thats why i wanted to ask if there is a possibility of rooting that I didnt see?
I want to have a custom rom - there is no way to get this without root, isnt it?
Thanks for replies - and sorry for my bad english

No to both questions:
- no known method of rooting FireOS 5.3.2.1 and above
- no ability to install a custom ROM without root due to locked bootloader
You can take steps to make FireOS more palettable and improve performance:
- disable preinstalled apps
- remove lock screen ads
- use a different launcher
- enable/disable multi-user support
Each of these areas has one or move dedicated discussion threads which you likely encountered during your search.
Thanks for your reply!
And yes, i have alrady seen theese threads.
I have some aditional questions:
Is there any reason for trying the same root program several times?
Is it possible that root is working after an system update? I have seen a tutorial for rooting on 5.4.0
Not sure what "tutorial" you saw for rooting 5.4.0.0, but as far as we know here, it's not possible.

It was that one guy who made those two troll threads. One for 5.3.3, one for 5.4.0, and people ate it up.

Just came here to ask if this was possible. I remember with the us versions of the Samsung this is the way we did it. I don't need custom ROMs or anything. Is this possible?
Hi, that's not possible. If you use Google you'll find all you need to know.

what is the interest of the forum then?
This question has been asked many many times before. Just go to any Samsung ROM topic on XDA or google the topic. Many brands now make it difficult or impossible to root without unlocking the boot loader.
