So i just got a G925W8VLU3BOK1 Canadian Galaxy S6 Edge from bell and was looking for a way to root without setting off the knox counter when I came across ping pong root. I can't seem to find out if this method will work with this device (on firmware 5.1.1). Does anyone know that if it will work or not?
As you can read at http://pingpong-root.com:
"If you have android 5.1.1 it will trip Knox warranty"
Kingroot trips Knox as well on that firmware i think.

Hi there
First smartphone - have a Touchpad running CM9 so I'm not a total Android newb but I'm having a heck of a time navigating through all this talk of kernels/adb/flash counters/odin/etc. etc.
My question is pretty simple - is there a way to root my Telus Samsung Galaxy Note LTE I717 so I can get CWM/SauROM/both on it WITHOUT tripping the flash counter?
AFAIK, the threads in the Android Dev forums lead me to belive that's possible for the AT&T version, but there are no hacked Telus/Rogers/Bell system.img files to flash with Odin - only the AT&T one.
But then I'm confused, as the kernel flash by Da_G that does increase your flash counter is not differentiated at all by carrier, and it apparently works for all carriers.
Am I missing something?
I have an S6 edge from DTM T-Mobile SM-G925F running stock unrooted 6.0.1 build FXXS3DPDF and CSC baseband FXXU3DPBF kernel from April 07. 2016.
I want to root it without tripping KNOX to 0x1 like I did it on my S4 I9505 using CF AutoRoot, so it needs to stay on 0x0. I wanted to try PingPong root but im not sure will it work or will i mess up my phone my aunt bought for my bday 3days ago so help me please. Can i root it using PINGPONG or i will have to throw away my warranty and EAT myyself up watching that
STATUS:CUSTOM
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1
in that beautiful light blue new DOWNLOAD mode?
Is there any solution for rooting my phone or i will have to stay at my home and watch my beautiful S6 edge white pearl in a cheap case from eBay?
PS IM SORRY FOR MY SIGNATURE IT WASNT MODIFIED FOR A LONG TIME
I really think that you can't root it and still have varranty.

Are you sure it is G925F and not G925T? you said it was from T-mobile. I do not think there is a root for G925 (any variant) on 6.0.1 that keeps the warranty. However, if you do not want to root using CF-auto-root and system-less root and you are sure the model is G925F, than you can root it using ManhIT's rooted kernel from his google drive at https://drive.google.com/folderview...sp=drive_web&tid=0B40ItdHKfkyQTzl0M3FzMHF5NDg
Yes im pretty sure is a 925F its an international version
My aunt boughtit in germany in dtm deutsche telekom which is not the same as tmo s6 edge so my phone is the same as all 925f its just bootscreen pink ■T■■■ and stock ringtone not over the horizon then T ringtone
Ps when youre here do you know how to fix a scratch on it
These pics are from my dads NEXUS5 CRACKED running cm13 nightly
Do any of these Root or Roms work with the 6.0.1 model 404sc / SW-G925Z from Japan ?
Im sorry, but they all fail to mention this model number.
I find it hard to believe that 20 versions of the phone have been unlocked, but japan has not.
is it possible to root - rom - back up the 6.0.1 404sc / SW-G925Z currently ?
could someone explain how?
ive rooted every android and iphone ive ever owned.
but this is my first contract phone, and its the first one which fails to be listed.
Try pingpong root app. It might work.
can any know if its possible to get 3g 900mhz band on s6 edge g925A variant, any method?
Has anyone figured out how to obtain root on this model. Ive tried kingroot but all it says is software not authorized by att has been found on your phone. Any updates?? I would really like this phone rooted!!
Hey all,
has there been any update to PingPongRoot in the last year, or is there some utility that will allow me to root my G925A on the March security update with 6.0.1?
If not, can someone explain to me the consequences of tripping Knox, and point me in the direction of a utility that will allow me to root regardless?
Is it a hardware only trigger, I.E, none of my future Samsung devices would be affected?
Thanks in advanced!
