Is it possible to root my S4 with saferoot, and also keep Knox functionality? Or does Knox completely invalidate rooting?
Thanks!
Any takers?
I figured this would be an easy question for someone, am tied to wanting both knox and root. Mostly for the secure partitioning. Someone has to know something. Thanks!

Hi,
Does unlocking bootloader and rooting break Knox security? Or is is rom-based (ie cooked back into the rom)?
I actually need it for work use.... TIA
If you root you trigger knox.
Hello. I want to root my phone, and I know that if I do it, the knox counter will be tripped, so no Samsung Pay and no warranty anymore. I don't care about that. There is no Samsung pay in my country and the warranty is already lost.
But what about My Knox and FRP lock? Do I loose that forever too? or only while my phone is rooted?
Thanks in advance!
My Knox relies on an intact Knox counter so rooting and tripping it will cause issues with that. Frp should still work I think.
You'll lose My Knox forever, but you can use FRP lock while not rooted.
I want to root my s7 exynos without tripping knox running on nougat.
Read the forums, you can not.
Is this information still relevant? Still no chance of rooting without tripping Knox?
Correct, still no way to do it.

That's not what I was willing to hear, but still thank you very much for the information.
The title is pretty self explainatory. Any known rooting method of the SM-A530F without tripping the knox efuse?
Thank you for answering.
Unfortunately not. The only way to avoid trusted boot to trip the warranty bit is by using signed binaries, and 'till now we can't sign custom binaries since we don't have Samsung's signature keys. Cheers!
Thanks for answering mate. Cheers!
I have read a lot about Samsung KNOX and how it is supposed to work, but the more I read the less I know how KNOX is tripped.
I understand what KNOX is, I know how it works and I know the supposed "reasons" it exists.
I also do know, that KNOX has changed a couple of times in the past years, which is perhaps the reason I find to much conflicting information on this topic.
So, since the A51 is quite a new phone, I want to know, how KNOX is tripped on the Galaxy A51.
Is unlocking the bootloader already enough?
Can you unlock the bootloader but flashing anything will make it trip?
What exactly is allowed with the newest KNOX and at which point does it exactly trip?
Can you not modify anything anymore, without tripping KNOX?
since Knox requires a separate login even after phone boots up i would guess it is not accessible with just a booted up and unlocked phone. last i read it created an additional "encrypted sandbox" on the already unlocked phone where data did not cross the sandbox barriers.

Unolocking the bootloader isn't enough to trip Knox, it trips once you flash a modified file.
Like TWRP, a ROM, etc that doesn't have Samsung's signature of official software.
