Is there any way to unlock bootloader on Sprint S6 without tripping Knox?
If you acquire Root or install a custom recovery, you are going to trip Knox.

Hi guys, I'm getting this phone from someone and I want to know that if the phone came with 4.1 without KNOX bootloader what can I do for precautions to not flashing KNOX bootloader?
or, if the phone is came with 4.4 with KNOX bootloader how can I remove it? thanks.
The question should be if you still need to bother about KNOX? THe warranty is probably over and if you have lower bootloader, then flash MJ5 and ROM without KNOX and prerooted like OMEGA, which I recommend. If you have newer bootloader then just flash whatever you want and forget about KNOX

so there's no way to remove the knox bootloader right? So if I got the old bootloader, should I flash MJ5Patch?

If you get bootloader older than MJ5, flash MJ5 bootloader, it is the last one that works with 4.3/4.4.2 that is without KNOX. If you get it with MJ5, no need to do anything. If it's newer - you'll just have to live with the fact that Knox flag will be set to 1.... (if you want to flash custom ROMs)
Just swapped over to tmo today and picked up an S4 with NB4. I know it can be rooted, but can I unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery and roms? I know about tripping the KNOX counter, but I don't care about that.
Bootloader is not locked, so in other words yes
Sweet! Is there a guide to doing this?
EDIT: Nevermind. I didn't realize it was as easy as installing Rom Manager/CWM recovery.
Yup very easy
I have successfully rooted my Note 3 without tripping knox thanks to Effortless method. Is there a way to install TWRP without affecting knox?

I've been reading up a lot on that same question. Unfortunately, we cannot. We can only root with effortless because it is an official samsung note 3 kernel. Custom recovery is just that. Custom.
Knox picks up tampering and shatters the container. If you are using Knox even, and trip counter, it shatters everything inside it too.
T hanks for the help
Is it possible to install CM with towelroot and bypass knox tripper?
I thought i use towelroot first, then install a recovery?
Towelroot will not trip Knox, but when you add recovery and boot into recovery to install CM, you will trip Knox. No way around it.
Is there any way around it?
No
It's adding a custom recovery that trips Knox. Several people learned that the hard way after rooting with Towel root.
Not just recovery trips Knox.
Possible root method: MAGISK (or an alternative?)
Phone model: S20+ 5G SM-G9860 (HK variant)
If knox doesn't trip, what about SafetyNet?
If I send phone back under warrenty with tripped SafetyNet, will they accept it?
Thanks in advance
Hey
every change in the signature of boot ROM will trip KNOX. Installing Magisk (by using a changed boot image) as such WILL TRIP KNOX. WIth Magisk Manager you can however still use stuff like Google Pay (NOT Samsung Pay though).
Is there any way to undo KNOX tripping at this time????
