Is this a legit root already? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

http://www.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7-root/
Saw that earlier and umm.... wow already?

Wondering if that method set 0x1 to KNOX

Bootloader isn't locked so root isn't hard if you don't care about knox

【Q】Will flashing of custom ROM trigger knox after root?

Hi,
i am seeing that currently people are recommending kingo root or vroot, that was claimed that this won't trigger knox flag at all.
After rooting. if i were to flash any custom ROM, will this trigger knox flag?
Thank!

Yes it will. Flashing a custom Recovery and/or a Rom will trip Knox. Kingo and vroot are not full roots. The phone is rooted enough to allow you to customize the stock rom and for applications that require root to work. If you want to flash custom roms, you might as well use the CF Auto Root method and get a full root. That will trip knox but so will what you want to do.
I'm sure it will be trip by KNOX. Keep calm until developer launch triangle away for Note 3 dude.

Lost root after installing latest OTA

Hi all. Have N9005 with MJ7 XME unit. Rooted with de LA Vega since MJ1.
I accidentally installed a 4.51MB update via OTA and have lost my root access.
Question, how can I get root access back without tripping Knox and/or downgrading to MJ1.
Appreciate any assistance relevant to the problem I have.
Thanks.

How can you OTA update if your phone has been rooted.
BTW I affraid that you can not downgrade to MJ1 as well as get root without tripping Knox atm.
you can't root without trip knox.
afaik ota is possible if he using wanam to set fake status to official.
At this point, can I still run de la vega? On an MJ7 image I downloaded?

The ONLY safe way to upgrade was with MOP... Since you did it the Samsung way you are now stuck with the updated bootloader and no way to root without tripping Knox...
How you didn't know this is beyond me since it's all over the forum....
Thanks all for the replies. My loss then for not thronging the threads.

Ok you cannot root without tripping knox now.

Root I9195XXUBML4 without triggering Knox

Hi everyone, I rooted my s4 mini when it was on XXUBMJ7 thanks to saferoot. SuperSU told me something about Knox that was disabled. Great. I checked it in download mode and it was still at 0x0.
Then I updated my phone via OTA, and now it is on XXUBML4. Saferoot no longer works, tried also kingo root, it takes a looooong time (40-50 mins?) and at the end it fails.
Apart from flashing cwm etc... there's somethign I can do to root this phone without triggering Knox?
No one?
We must wait. There is no method for now to root new firmwares without triggering a Knox

I read somewhere that here in Europe Knox doesn't void warranty, so I rooted anyway using this method (the one found here on xda didn't worked): http://www.androidiani.com/forum/mo...-recovery-cescomn-tools-s4-mini-gt-i9195.html
Now my Knox is 0x1, but I'm rooted. Who cares. :laugh:
Thanks for the tutorial!!

[Q] Best root method for the SM-G900F?

What is the best/safest root method for the SM-G900F?
You can try Towelroot.
I prefer CF-Auto Root even though it trips KNOX
what is Knox? I keep seeing it everywhere

you can see knox counter in download mode. it should be: 0x0
when you trip this counter it goes to: 0x1
with that warranty is void. well, in most parts of the world
you can trip knox counter if you flash 1) custom kernel or 2) custom recovery
Most of roms here will trip knox counter, some will not(like Neat ROM from Sale)
Hello guys.. just bought an internacional s5 unlocked from Vodafone. .. is there any step by step tutorial for flashing custom recovery and root for this model? Thx

Towelroot does not remove knox?
Have not used Towelroot myself so I cannot confirm. I've heard it does not trip KNOX if your firmware is dated June or earlier.

how to know if my firmware's date? is it the kernel version? it says Wed Jul 23
That would be part of it yes. I haven't read much into Towelroot. They could have updated it from last I heard so things could have changed there.
