Probably Easiest Way To Root, Knox Safe

I discovered this rooting technique on Youtube, probably the easiest way I have found that doesn't trip Knox. I can confirm it did not trip it for me.

Knox AND Root possible??

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!

root nougat without tripping knox ?

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.

Real Clarification on Samsung KNOX

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.

Knox uses a physical hardware fuse which means once Knox is tripped there is no going back. Knox will never work again. Sorry dude.

Ok, understood. Itse not possible even with stock rom.
