Hi
I want to root a Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920F on 5.1.1 without tripping KNOX. I plugged it in to the PC and it gave me the option to root. As there is no root method for 5.1.1 ATM, will Kingo Android Root trip KNOX? Anyone tried it?

KNOX will trip if you install a no signed kernel.

Hi
Does anyone know if a ping pong root method for 5.1.1 is being developed that will not trip knox? My current build ends in OI9.

Now that you have OI9 there is no way to make root without tripping knox.
I bought the s6 this week, i really need the root unfortunatly they already had 5.1.1 installed with build version ending in Ol9. So this means i can not get root without breaking its warranty?
And what would stop working when knox is activated?
Thanks for any help i really appreciate it
I have tried KingoRoot with no success and I do not want to trip my KNOX warranty with CFRoot.
You can't root 5.1.1 FW Without tripping Knox atm yet.

Would you recommend any tools for an easy root/unroot? PingPongRoot doesn't support my model yet.
Is there any one click root method? I tried Root Genius and it also failed.

As mentioned before, there is no root method for 5.1.1 that doesn't trip KNOX.
All Samsung devices that received the 5.1.1 update (Note 4, Note Edge, S6, S6 Edge, S6 Edge Plus and Note 5), have got security patches that prevent root.
The only way to root 5.1.1 devices is by using a Custom Kernel which trips KNOX.
Got my phone 2 days ago it has G920FXXU3COI9 out of the box. Is there a way to root it without the loss of knox ? I dont want to trip it after using my phone for only 2 days
Thx in advance
If you root your phone with Ping Pong root you will not trip Knox. If you root by any other method or install a custom recovery you will trip Knox and will never be able to reset it.

There is no way to root on 5.1.1 w/o tripping knox as far as i know, sorry.
Hi all.
Just purchased an S6 128GB International Version SG-920I and was wondering if by rooting it would I lose any functionality except Samsung Pay (which is useless in Europe in at this time anyway).
Also can you guys help me with a rooting guide and what's the best recovery menu to go for on the S6?
The phone came with factory 5.1.1 so I guess PingPong root is out of the question is there an alternative to this?
Thanks.
Just rooted my G920i, used Odin and Root Kernels/ Unibase Kernel for Galaxy S6 on Android 5.1.1

I take it that triggers the knox fuse right?
Is there a way for 5.1.1 to root without blown Knox fuse?
Hello! I bought a S6 (G920F) two months ago and it came with 5.1.1 android installed. I want to root it but without tripping KNOX because I have two year warranty. I know that pingpong root does this but on 5.0.2. Can I flash the official build for 5.0.2 via Odin and don't get KNOX tripped? Thanks!

Once on 5.1.1 you can't go back to 5.0.2. I can't remember the outcome of trying but it may result in a brick.
I think you could flash an engineering bootloader for the F variant and root it without tripping knox

if your firmware is COI9 or newer, you can do root without tripping knox.
