Some were here in the forum there was posted away to root without tripping Knox. But you can not uninstall Knox.. I would suggest just rooting it, let it trip knox and be done with it.. If you need to make a trip to the Sprint store, just flash back to stock... Sprint for the most part does not have a policy against rooting as I have been told..

I think you can uninstall Knox if you search Google on how to uninstall Knox there is a YouTube video and even a Samsung site describing, but I do not know if by doing this it allows me to perform a route without trripping Knox

Yes there is a possibility to root without tripping KNOX, CF-auto works most of the time if your careful. BUT, that's it once you install a custom recovery you will trip KNOX warranty (e-fuse) . You can NOT remove KNOX completely, however you can disable it there are several sites with lists of the KNOX files, and KNOX related container files. Just google it to get the sites. You will an app like Root Explorer and be rooted to delete the files. In the end there will be four KNOX files you will never able to erase. They just keep coming back on reboot, thankfully they remain empty. Why go through this because KNOX was written for Samsung by the NSA.

I agree, I have seen a couple posts where people have gotten lucky. Personally I say root and trip KNOX and forget about it. Sprint has never turned me down for warranty service, rooted or not.

What about SquareTrade warrantees
There is an exploit to root sprint nc5 4.4.2 and 4.4.3 without tripping Knox. It is an apk called towel root. It does other phones as well as sprint note 3. I have not done it myself but some already have done it successfully. Search Xda for it.

I rooted my phone with towelroot. I want twrp but I don't have a computer readily available. I've been looking around if I can flash twrp another way without tripping KNOX or bricking, but I have yet to find a reliable solution. Anyone have any suggestions, solutions, or ideas?

you might be able to install twrp without tripping knox. but if you use it you will most likely trip knox. custom recoveries , kernels and roms all will trip knox and void your warranty. at least with towelroot you can make plenty of modifications. and keep your warranty intact in case you need it in the future/

No, flashing a custom recovery WILL trip knox. What do you need that requires a custom recovery? Most mods can just be manually pushed to the proper location without a custom recovery.
I don't really know about tripping knox but you can install twrp through there app from the play store
Been researching into this issue as well. There must be a way around this because on my old AT&T S5, I tried out Alliance Rom via Safestrap and it never seemed to trip knox as far as I could tell. Knox counter was 0x0 when I got rid of that phone. I may hold off and put TWRP when I pay off the EIP on the phone which should be in a few months.
So basically if you towel rooted your device and installed twrp and you tripped Knox there's no way to reverse backup and untripped Knox putting it back to 0x0 is there?

Towel root will not trip knox. Only custom recoveries and custom rom and kernels trip knox. There is no way to get knox back to 0x0 if you trip it. Maybe in the future, but it seem unlikely. Most of the folks that could figure it out , now work for these companies and r not allowed to share info anymore. The companies motto is "If you can not beat them, then hire them."
At the rate android is going, we might as well buy iphones. Good quote that these companies share is "The android people are free to do exactly what they are told to do. "
O.k. so I towel rooted my device how do I flash roms, kernels without tripping knox? Thanks

You can't...yet. Flashing a recovery, which is needed to flash roms, trips knox. You can flash a kernel in ODIN (rarely) but that will trip knox as well since it isn't signed by Samsung.

You can flash it, but it will still trip knox when you boot into recovery. What I really don't understand (no offense), is why people care about knox. Tmobile doesn't. So unless you live outside the US, it really doesn't matter.

If you are planning to use the Jump program, it does matter from what I read on the T-mobile support forum because you will be charged the insurance deductible on the phone if it has been determined that knox has been tripped. One would figure they evaluate these phones to see if they can refurbish them.

I see no reason why they should care. They flash back everything to stock again using Samsung software that resets everything.
I was trying to install rom manager and it was telling me i need a custom recovery. If i do install custom recovery will it void my warranty? I don't want to root i just want to back up my current stock rom cuz i have so much customization. I have rooted in the past but i forgot if installing custom recovery roots the phone.

Yep. Flashing a custom kernel, recovery, or rom will trip KNOX which voids Samsung's warranty. T-Mobile on the other hand, doesn't really care. Don't hold me accountable for anything, but as far as I know, no one has been rejected a warranty exchange or JUMP because of tripped KNOX.

Usually no. Samsung will try to disavow a warranty if you install a custom recovery. But most people do not deal directly with Samsung for warranty claims. They usually deal with their carrier and most carriers don't care about Knox. In particular many TMB customers have posted that TMB honoured their warranty on 0x1 phones.
And in the EU, stronger consumer protection obstensibly stops Samsing from voiding warranties simply because you install a custom recovery.
This question has been asked and answered hundreds of times in existing forum threads, so we also know that you haven't learned how to do a forum search in three years.

If you have to deal with Samsung directly or send it back...just Odin back the stock tar..good idea anyway for personal data protection.

Uh huh. That will not decrement Knox from 0x1 to 0x0.
Installing a custom recovery will increment Knox and Samsung does check that.

Never deal with Samsung, knox is irreversible.

Knox is reversible, just not by the average end user. There are development threads demonstrating that it can be reversed and certainly Samsung resets it on refurbished phones.

You mean not even by the expert end developers either.. Probably only a few can. If that was the case a fix would have been prominent and provided. Plus it's another completely thing if it's done Samsung, that means it's irreversible for most

If you trip knox, can you still flash anything you want, modem, kernel, etc. I just have to ask, because i read that if you trip knox you will no longer be able to flash a modem or kernel. I sorry if this was asked but i tried to google search and really did not come up with anything to support it or deny it.

Flashing kernels, custom recoveries, and boot loaders WILL trip Knox. That's why people don't do it. After Knox is tripped, you don't have to worry about flashing anything you want. Knox just show's if you've flashed something. Once it's tripped, it does not limit what you can flash or not flash.
People are just careful not to flash kernels or bootloaders or custom recoveries so as to not trip Knox. They are worried they will not get warranty work on the phone if Knox is tripped.

I don't know where you read that but I wouldn't go back to that site. Knox is long ago tripped in my phone and I've flashed tons of ROMS Modems, Kernels, etc. I got the TMO S5 because it's bootloader isn't locked and I can flash what I like. I use it on AT&T btw.

Just rooting your S5 will keep you from getting OTA updates. But you can always odin your updates. Taking OTAs is dangerous for many reasons. It's better not to take them and find out what all they've changed by watching what happens to other peoples devices. Plus, if you use Mobile Odin Pro you can inject root and SU when you update.
Good luck with it.

No you have to be rooted to use mobile odin on your device. Mobile odin pro just injects root if you decide to update to a newer firmware using mobile odin pro.

Use pc odin to flash an ota that works with towel root. After that get mobile odin pro. Use mobile odin to flash all ota. You dont need to flash bootloader. Tho im on nh5 with an nh5 bootloader. Also this method will not trip knox.
I assume when android L hits, you will need to upgrade the bootloader to that version first, then use mobile odin to flash android L on the device.
Some one correct me if im wrong on that.
im sure some people know about this but a lot don't so I wanted to post this link to a thread that's buried here regarding flashing custom touchwiz roms without tripping knox. http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/help/flash-tw-custom-rom-tripping-knox-t2892774
basically you can get a debloated custom rom with aroma installer and not trip knox. Its no cyanogenmod but I prefer touchwiz anyway . this works with neatrom and alliance rom apparently. I have not tried it but there are many who have with other variants
Hello guys! I'm new to the S5 section and even more new to the T-Mobile area since I'm on AT&T network. I come from a S4 that I could root without tripping Knox and at least use different variants of TW rooms using Safestrap.
I was under the impression that Tmobile S5 version was not as tight as the AT&T version but after reading a few threads I'm not sure.
I have to say that I love the stock UI of S5 more than the one on the S4. That said I still would like to have more control over a few things.
So I could live with a rooted S5 with Xposed Installer and Wanam and a few other Xposed modules.
But I would not like to trip my phones Knox counter.
I wonder if that is possible under BNH5 firmware and how?
Can I root using Towelroot and intall Xposed, Wanam and a few other customization modules without tripping my phone's Knox counter?
Also Would I be able to go back to a virgin Stock Rom without tripping the counter?
I would appreciate all the help.
Thanks.

You cannot root NH5 software directly with towel root, but there is a thread that shows exactly step by step how to downgrade to a version that towel root will root and then go back to the latest. This procedure does NOT trip Knox. Knox is tripped anytime you load a custom recovery or kernel.
So, if you just want root so you can run Xposed and Wannam and what not, that's not a problem and you can odin back to stock if you need to for a return. Look around here on the TMO S5 threads and you'll find all this hashed over and over.
Good Luck!

Yes you can root your phone but you will have to roll back the firmware back NE6 and then use towel root. Once you do that, then you can use pc odin to flash the nh5 firmware and use mobile odin pro to flash the NH5 software back onto your phone and retain root. Just remember that you will not trip knox using the method above, but if you flash a custom recovery or non tmo s5 kernel you will trip knox. There are a few threads here that you help you root and upgrade to keep root. Make sure you read thru some of the rooting threads before you do anything to your phone, It is your responsibility to make sure you know how and what your are doing when flash your phone, We are not responsible if you forget to read or flash something that is not for your type of phone, if you brick your phone or if you trip knox. Also Remember that if you do trip knox, there currently is no way to reset the knox counter, so please Do Not Ask.
Have fun and read before you decide to do anything to your phone..

First Question is do you have premium handset protection? If so then I wouldnt worry about Knox at all. Handset protection covers everything including running over your phone with a car . I have had devices that I didnt have insurance on in the past when I was a NOOB that had the warranty flag tripped and never had any problems at T-Mobile with replacing it . T-Mobile would rather replace a knox tripped phone over replacing a phone with a cracked screen because they just re-flash the device and pass it along to the next person . It doesnt cost them anything like it would having to repair cracked screens etc... I have the S5 G900T and I rooted while I was still in the T-Mobile store buying it LOL . The sales guy told me their was no way to root it at the time (which he was wrong ). Anyway I understand kind of why you wouldnt want to trip knox but at the end of the day it really wont matter if tmobile is your carrier . There really isnt a difference between a tripped phone and one that isnt when it comes to getting it replaced . I know this from experience and many many others on XDA will tell you the same .

It's my understanding that the KNOX security flag is a electronic fuse. Once tripped it's burned to 1 state and a "re-flash" won't repair that.
That said, I could see T-Mobile taking it back because of the value of the replaceable parts, including an intact display. Enough profit is made on the extended protection plans that T-mobile could grind them all up and use them for fancy pavement surfacing. I've yet, for example to replace "anything" under an extended service plan. I get them to be careful, but there's been plenty of $$$ for those plan providers.
Extended service plans? Total and absolutely guaranteed profit for vendors.

2. uNZIP THE FILE AND FLASH IT USING PC ODIN. WHICH YOU CAN GET HERE https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23212708291676783
3. ROOT WITH TOWELROOT . TOWELROOT IS HERE https://towelroot.com/
4.DOWNLOAD MOBILE ODIN PRO FROM THE PLAYSTORE IT WILL COST YOU AROUND $6
5.DOWNLOAD THE NEWEST STOCK TAR TMB-G900TUVU1BNH5 FROM SAMMOBILE OR FOR A MUCH FASTER LINK GET IT HERE https://mega.co.nz/#!F0gFFIpL!SdOFS_5OSOB6b1WUSxfVR286LgrAeDdugRRC5-G0dQ8
6. UNZIP THE FILE AND COPY IT TO YOUR SDCARD OR INTERNAL STORAGE ON YOUR PHONE.
7. USING MOBILE ODIN PRO CHOOSE THE OPEN FILE SELECTION AND THEN CHOOSE THE FILE THAT YOU COPIED TO THE PHONE
8. IGNORE THE WARNING FROM MOBILE ODIN REGARDING KNOX. IT WONT TRIP. TICK EVEROOT AND INJECT SUPERSU FLASH THE PHONE .
YOUR PHONE SHOULD BE ROOTED UPON ONCE IT RESTARTS AND ON THE NEWEST FIRMWARE.
YOUR BOOTLOADER CAN NOT BE UPGRADED BY MOBILE ODIN. THAT CAN BE FLASHED SEPERATELY BY USING PC ODIN.LOOK FOR THE BOOTLOADER FILE IF YOU WISH TO UPGRADE IT BUT IN MY OPINION IT IS NOT CRITICAL TO INSTALL AT THIS POINT. MOST OF THESE FILES CAN BE FOUND HERE http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2761412 OR HERE http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715487
