(Question) G925W8VLU3BOK1 root without tripping knox - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is there anyway to root this on 5.1.1 without tripping knox?

I am not sure but I think if you root the phone like the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/howto-flash-g92xf-t-tripping-knox-t3158606 and then you upgrade to this firmware wihtout change the bootloader you can do this.

There is a not a way to do that yet. I'm sure you used Towel root to root 4.4.2 and not trip KNOX. Towel Root dose not work for 4.4.4 yet. Neither does Kingo Root, and Root De La Vega. The 4.4.4 update patches the exploit in 4.4.2. You can read through my thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/general/samsung-note-3-rom-flashin-basics-t2896440 unless you are actually using the containerization security of KNOX, you don't need to worry about the warranty. Read about my trip to the Sprint Corporate store. Sprint will cover the warranty as long as if is not rooted when you bring it in for service, or send it back to Sprint for service. If the device is hard bricked there is no way to tell it has been rooted and they automatically replace the device.

Questions about tripping Knox Security on a Samsung phone.

Hello! I just had a few questions about the whole new Knox Security thing Samsung has implemented in their newer phones and firmwares. So, what are the consequences of tripping the Knox counter with rooting the device? Does it just void warranty and tell them that it's been modded? I thought I read somewhere that after tripping Knox and restoring your phone back to Samsung firmware, it no longer gets OTA updates. Is this true? Thanks guys! Please go as in depth as you can!

[Q] About Root

Im on 5.1.1 G625i LATAM 64gb. Using stock everything, not rooted.
If i got it right there's 2 types of root:
1. Tripping KNOX: No issues but increasing counter.
2. Not tripping KNOX: disables fingerprint and call sound, but there's a fix for call issue.
Is these information correct? Also, is there any link to go on the #1 (tripping knox)? This forum is kinda weird, stuff are not that organized, can't find stuff easily.
think so
Any1 else?
SM-G925I on 5.1.1 stock?
sadly I believe there is only one option for you. which is CF-AutoRoot.
AutoRoot flashes your phone with the root binary and will trip Knox.
The non-Knox tripping option which you alluded to is called PingPongRoot and utilizes an exploit that was patched between 5.0.2 and 5.1.1.
There is a third option but it is only available on the T-Mobile variant of the S6E. (SM-G925F I believe).
Anyone please verify
knox and fingerprint

Root possibility on 5.1.1

Hi all.
I dont know if someone already knows this by i'm asking also for myself
I know that there is a way (i.e. ping pong root-tested by me) to root out s6 (edge) without tripping knox only if we are on 5.0.2 with 5.0.2 bootloader. And i know there is a way to flash even without a custom recovery (i.e. flashfire -not confirmed).
So....is it possible to downgrade from totally stock 5.1.1 to 5.0.2?
After that....Is it really possible to flash rom ZIP using flashfire?
In this way the theorically have 5.1.1 rom (with root) with 0x0 counter, right?
Thanks in advance

I dont think if there is any way to root 5.1.1 without tripping Knox. There are lots of people waiting to root 5.1.1 without tripping knox (including me )
yes i know ON 5.1.1 we cant (at least, for now). by the way, i mean not to root 5.1.1 but to downgrade to the rootable 5.0.2 and AFTER to flash 5.1.1 using flashfire that doesnt use custom recovery.

As far as I know, downgrading is still virtually impossible. For example here:
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/root-pingpongroot-s6-root-tool-t3103016
and especially here:
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s6-edge/general/psa-odin-5-1-1-t3136151

Downgrading is virtually impossible at the minute. And rooting 5.1.1 without voiding KNOX is also virtually impossible, unless you are on the F variant.
where there are creative ways to get it done with the leaked 5.0.2 engineering bootloader, but you lose fingerprint scanner functionality.
I have been sitting on the 5.0.2 waiting for news of a 5.1.1 root, but it seems as if there is none forthcoming :<
Hopefully the Marshmallow update bring us some good vulnerabilities.

I am S6 edge 5.1.1, rooted. Just flash the Uni-kernel (there inclodes root access). It perfectly works for my device only shows on boot that kernel is not seandroid enforcing. But it works perfectly.
So you're still 0x0 knox?

Samsung G925-T Root

Well it's been a while since I've checked, but Im having a lot of trouble rooting my phone. Ive figured since the s7 is out, maybe someones done it without tripping knox on my model
I almost dont really care about knox
But id prefer one that doesnt trip it just in case.
Galaxy S6 Edge
5.1.1
G925-T
UVS3DOJC
Can someone help me? Im really trying get NetHunter on my phone
5.1.1 cannot be rooted eithout tripping knox because it requires flashing a kernal that roots the phone and that kernal is housed in the boot partition. Marshmallow can be rooted by the old method of flashing twrp and flashing a supersu flashable zip. So unless Im wrong (may a someone correct me if so) 5.1.1 cannot be rooted without tripping knox. Idk if flashing twrp will trip on marshmallow so do some research on that. If it doesnt there you go all you have to do is wait for it then. If not then its not possible as far as i know. I cant tell you MM wise because i tripped my knox on L5.1.1
