Yes, it seems u're right but i found this german website:http://www.mobtivity.com/de/news/galaxy-note-3-update-auf-android-kitkat-mit-root-und-knox-0x0.html.
Anyone can explain what is this?

This link is an interesting read....
This douchbag tells us nothing about knox or even warns about it...
then says you can root 4.4.2 and it will Void your warrenty(by this he means knox 0x1)
he then goes on to saying you can reflash 4.4.2 without root to "get back your warrenty".
i guess he doesnt know that once its 0x1 it cant be reset...
or he knows something we dont..???

This is not new for me, i'm aware of this, I had a Samsung S4...when u are a flashmaniac u take risks... I sold my S4 with Knox 0x1. But i guess some people don't care about Knox when they want to flash custom roms. Anyway this Knox s**t is ridiculous. Samsung made a bad move and many samsung fans will never buy a samsung device anymore.

Without tripping Knox ? What do you mean with this ?
I just recently rooted my Galaxy Note 3 N9005 with Odin 3.09 and CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar.md5
No problem with Knox, allthough it intervenes when starting the SuperSU
What u had in mind?

Rooting with CF-Auto-Root has tripped the Knox counter of your Note 3. Congrats.

lolz... oh yea?
Please tell me, what does this tripping Knox counter mean?
( sorry for stupid question... i answer it by myself... with using google)
http://www.kingoapp.com/help/samsung-knox-counter.htm
I was in an impression that I can still unroot this, without too much of hassle?
(Last time I checked, it showed 0x0)

It's not possible for your Knox flag to show 0x0 after flashing CF-Auto-Roo. As soon as you flash unsigned images to your Note 3, it'll trip knox and you may lose your warranty.

You're right it seems :silly:
However I don't find this very offensive, as I offcourse accepted the risk before rooting. Allthough, I wish I'd have read more about which bloat I shouldn't have removed... that damn MagazineHome.apk is really pain in the ass. After I deleted it, --> stock email FC every time new message comes... and what really sucks, I was unable to restore or install MyMagazine or MagazineHome.apk (with or without .odex) to get rid of this annoying crash messages.
Not sure yet why I was unable to reinstall those... is there different versions of them on Verizons Note 3 than in my galaxy note 3 n9005 ?
And one thing I havent yet learned is, whether the Knox is avoiding me from doing these restores or managing to reinstall those properly? (help anyone?! please )

I think it won't trip knox, since it was successful on S5 and some older device.
But if that towelroot can used to root this note 4.
I heard towelroot isn't updated anymore and can't root newer device.
But you always can try and report here..

Thabks a lot for the answer

Towelroot was patch about a week after it was out so it no longer works if you really care about knox wait for someone to do a Rom rooting it without tripping knox otherwise Chainfires root will trip knox

towelroot wont work,

Yeah.
1. Towelroot is for root android 4.3 or higher.
2. You can use CF-Auto-Root without void the warranty coz you are using android 4.2.2. This is the first firmware of the Galaxy s4 and it hadn't KNOX. You can flash any custom recovery too without KNOX.

I think you are wrong. Go to download mode and add me one screenshot of what appears there. I added one screenshot when I was using android 4.2.2. I promiss u that rooting your device with CF-Auto-root your KNOX will be off anyway.

If you don't know what is the difference btw Knox and binary flash counter isn't my problem. One nice guide is in this website. Read and learn a little more.
* EDIT: This root process may increase binary flash counter, not change KNOX status. Read a little more about TRIANGLE AWAY too.

Cf root will trigger my knox though. I have used cf root and triangle away many times on my s2 and my s3. I know the difference between knox and binary. Believe me your 4.2.2 I don't think was mh6, must have been earlier 4.2.2. This is my download mode.

Sorry my friend but once again you are wrong! Knox started in 4.2.2
I know you are trying to help but YOU need to read more before giving advice, because if anybody listened to your advice they would void the knox counter.

Yes that will trip knox.

I don't exactly know about trip knox
It's void waranty only or are there more to know about?
I have root with cf-autoroot because that was the only solution I found for my tab 4

Yes it only voids your warranty that's all. You could of tried towelroot v3 to root by opening the app and tapping at the top where it says towelroot v3 three times then put this number in 1337 0 1 7380 4 0 but if you aren't worried about warranty CF-Autoroot works just fine.

yes I have tried with towelroot v3. First time works great but after update it doesn't work for me.
I have tap 3 times and changed also to different codes. I have read there are 3 different codes.
It does not matter if its voids warranty for now, because all works fine for me.
Is there a solution to unroot, to get warranty or can I never use my waranty because I root the tab 4 with cf-autoroot?

Once you trip knox you can't go back and undo it. Nobody has figured out a way to reset it yet.

I'm more interested in completely removing knox software, I know the related system apps to remove in TiBu and searched and deleted anything "knox" in a root-enabled browser, but I also noticed knox coming up in the build.prop, specifically the following lines:
Code:
ro.build.knox.container=
persist.sys.storage_preload=1
ro.securestorage.knox=true
ro.config.knox=1
Is it worth changing any of these lines or am I blundering my way towards bricking my device?

I wouldn't recommend for you to remove ANY lines of code that may or may not brick your device
You could always just re-flash a ROM or make a backup with TWRP
