I have a SM-T700 which has CM12.1, TWRP and Knox 0x1 and have made a backup using Flashfire. I'm planning on selling this tablet and have bought a new SM-T700 which now has a rooted stock ROM (via Kingroot and Super-sume) and is still Knox 0x0. If I used Flashfire to restore a backup from the first tablet to the second one would that trip Knox?
Thanks

SM-T705, CF-Autoroot already. I was asked the above question. As I have rooted already I cant tell.
1 So if one installs TWRP recovery with Odin (not TWRP Manager apk) and just wants to backup his Tab, I would say there is no root necessary for doing this.
2 Will the Installation of TWRP with Odin trip Knox already ?
3 What is necessary for TWRP restore ... I guess root...
yes it will trip knox, anything custom other than an added binary (su.bin) will trip knox. Root isn't needed to backup/restore a ROM outside of Android, just a custom recovery.
If you have rooted with CF-Autoroot you tripped Knox already.

you con downgrade an older stock kernel w/out tripping knox ... but that's about all you can do. That said, I'd love to know if anyone has tried king, or towelroot. I'm too chicken. But towelroot DID work on our 8.4 tab pro (w/out tripping knox).

The thing is, is the tab pro exynos? I dont think towelroot works on exynos or some exynos devices
can't recall - but I thought it was the other way around - that towelroot (& kingo) won't work on snapdragon 's. I'll have to check to see what we got.

Hi i have rooted my SM-T705 without tripping Knox using KINGOROOT but i have run into a issue i need supersu and it keeps failing to install if i TWRP Manager via apk will that trip Knox ? Sorry for the newbie question i haven't been keeping up with the root scene for some years now ?? Thanks
Used pingpong to root. Any way to install a new rom without tripping knox?
You can't install a custom Rom without installing a custom recovery. Once you install a custom recovery this will trip Knox. So, either leave it rooted with the stock rom or install TWRP and trip Knox and install a custom rom. Those are your options.

I am getting the G6 and want to keep the warranty intact.
I know about the ping pong root and knox.
Heard if you install custom recovery (TWRP) - trips knox warranty void.
I would like to root and install my current apps using titanium BU- this i believe can be done with root only by just transferring the backups to the new phone correct?
Can i make a nandroid backup with stock recovery?
Also to apply OTA updates from sprint or samsung the phone will need to be unrooted yes?
Only way to unroot is to odin to stock correct?
TIA

looking forward to joining the S6 nation!

You have everything correct. Just understand that if you update with ota to 5.11, you will only be able to Odin to 5.11..... not to 5.02. Currently all kernels are tripping knox on 5.11. You will have to root and twrp 5.02 and get a custom rom with new updates as samsung releases it to preserve knox. So hope to God you received an s6 with 5.02 cuz otherwize you will have to trip knox as of this writing for 5.11 to obtain root. Once your trip and even if you go back to stock..... you will still be tripped and lose warranty. .... until someone figures it out. Currently only thing you lose is samsung pay.

Hey everyone.
I was wondering whether there is a possibillity to flash deknoxed rom on SM-P605 without tripping the Knox flag. Currently I have P605XXUCNF2 firmwere rooted with Towelroot.
Thanks in advance
no if you flash a Rom you will trip Knox. since you have to flash a custom recovery to flash the rom which trips Knox it's self.
It doesn't matter anymore about tripping Knox since warranty expired for note 10.1 already!
I have a Note 3 and im trying to figure out the process of rooting without tripping the Knox Counter. I rooted my Note 2, years ago and has been awhile. Also like to know is there a "triangle away" method to reset the counter.
Model: SM-900T
Android: 5.0
Baseband: N900TUVUFOL1
Kernel: 3.4.0-6005498
Knox: 2.3
Thanks in advance
As far as I know, there is no way to root without tripping Knox.
If the phone is not under warranty, tripping knox should not be an issue. I have tripped Knox on a few phones and have never had an issue.
I asked the same question a while back, and only just 2 days ago rooted my SM-N900T knox 0x0. Asked: Here.
To achieve root on the note 3 without tripping knox you must downgrade from the Lollipop firmware OB6, or FOL1 to NE6 using PC Odin.
Once downgraded to NE6 download and use TowelRoot. This will unlock root without tripping knox, NE6 was the last vulnerable firmware for towelroot on the t-mobile note 3.
Make sure you are flashing official t-mobile firmwares only for kitkat/lollipop when using PC odin.
Flashing any custom recovery, kernal, rom, bootloader, or no longer supported android version (4.3 jellybean) will trip knox.
You can use sammobile to get official firmwares, or if you're risky there are likely download mirrors scattered through the internet.
Once you're rooted on kitkat NE6, to get back to Lollipop and keep root you'll need Mobile Odin Pro to flash FOL1 with the latest Super SU Zip v2.46. (instructions first page of this thread: Here.)
Rooting seems to require some gonads and research first.
When using PC Odin I left options default (Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time).
When using Mobile Odin Pro (or maybe flashfire) make sure to uncheck EverRoot!
Flashfire is the newer free mobile odin pro I think. You might be able to use it in place of Mobile Odin Pro and instead of the supersu zip in addition to flashing FOL1 it comes with an option to inject SuperSU.
I recommend sticking with mobile odin pro for confirmed results. MOP does not support Lollipop.
Note that once you're rooted and upgrade to Lollipop your android system status will change from normal to custom. This prevents future OTA updates.
Root survives factory reset, but flashing official firmware with pc odin will make your phone genuine again as long as you didn't trip knox.
Downgrading to kitkat will very likely require a factory restore. Possibly also when upgrading back to Lollipop.
Note that the XPosed framework on lollipop and samsung touchwiz stock roms does not seem supported.
It seems some people have flashed a Deodexed rom and unofficial xposed to have it working. I made a single attempt and was unable to have it working.
I assume you could stay on kitkat and manage to get xposed working easy.
If you decide to use xposed, do not try to flash the framework without mobile odin pro, or flashfire.
Using a custom recovery, or flashing anything custom with PC Odin will trip knox.
Look over the information around to get a comfortable understanding and good luck!
Proceed only with the understanding that you could always on accident trip knox, or brick your phone.
I believe there is no known way to reset knox flag to 0 on the SM-N900T.
For future readers using a newer firmware than FOL1 it may no longer be possible to pc odin downgrade to kitkat without tripping knox.
So there is no way of downgrading without tripping knox
You can downgrade to kitkat NE6 using PC odin from t-mobile lollipop firmware OB6/OL1. (OL1 being the latest lollipop firmware, OB6 a version older). Once on kitkat NE6 firmware u can use towelroot to gain root and you will not trip knox. Unless you manage to check an option somewhere during this process that would cause you to trip knox. .
As stated, I achieved downgrading/rooting without tripping knox just a couple days ago from the current latest t-mobile galaxy note 3 (SM-N900T) firmware FOL1.
I then upgraded back from KitKat NE6 to Lollipop FOL1 using mobile odin pro.
You can probably downgrade to any 4.4 kitkat firmware, NOT 4.3 jellybean, just fine without tripping knox if you have a kitkat, or lollipop firmware up to FOL1.
I'll try it later, I also want to know if custom roms are possible
From what I've read you can install a custom rom as long as it has a stock kernel, otherwise you trip knox. You would need to flash with flashfire, or mobile odin pro though...
I've only used the stock firmware on my note 3 so don't completely know about using a custom rom.
I don't think a custom ROM can be flash via Odin. A custom ROM requires a custom recovery and a custom recovery will trip Knox on a stock KK or LP AFAIK.
Ohh ok. This is all sorta new to me as well. I had just assumed mobile odin pro could because FlashFire is its "successor".
