I have a Note 10 that I recently rooted (with Magisk), tripping the KNOX counter, and can no longer use Island/Shelter/work profiles. Do any workarounds exist to bypass KNOX and get Island/Shelter to work again?

Just got my Note Pro P900 yesterday and am a bit frustrated at the lack of a way to root it without tripping Knox. The Note 3 N9005 has similar hardware and can be rooted without tripping Knox. All that's needed is to downgrade the kernel using PC Odin to one that allows the vulnerability used by Towelroot, let Towelroot do its stuff then flash the correct kernel back. Is there any reason why this wouldn't work?
Anyone tried this yet?
This sounds like a good idea if it works. Any info on whether it does?
I wasn't able to track down any earlier kernels. I wonder if flashing the kernel from the Note 3 (very similar hardware) that contains the susceptibility would be enough to let Towelroot work? Or would it trip Knox/result in a non-booting phone?
How can I use my knox samsung with the root on the device s6, the time I did root it appears to be locked, there is a method that does not block my knox. I use it quite as desktop.
Since rooting the device trips the Knox counter, it also disables the Knox app which requires a secure environment in which to operate. So, rooting will definitely disable Knox.

This is not totally correct. There are ways to root our S6 keeping knox intact, even after updrading to 5.1.1 oficial firmwares.
Knox counter = 0 is not the only requirement for it to work, so maybe "rooted fom = No knox", but not beause of the knox counter.
Hi,
I know this has been posted a few times before but i was looking for an update.
I am looking to root my N915G without tripping the knox counter as i have only just got it and still want a valid warranty. I am aware that if i downgrade to kitkat i might be able to use kingroot to root without tripping knox but ideally i want to keep lollipop. I have tried all of the rooting apk's however all of them fail.
Is there any temporary solution that could work without tripping knox?
Thanks,
Alex
I would love that 2!
Hey, I want to root my GS6 but i'm not sure if it will trip the Knox counter or not. If I don't use a custom ROM with the root, I just keep using the one that it came with, will KNOX be tripped?
If you are on 5.1.1 or 6.0.1 you have to Trip Knox. I remember there is a engineering Bootloader somewhere which allows you to root without tripping Knox. But not sure about this.
Wondering what I can do on my S6 that doesn't trip Knox, if anything. Running Android 5.1.1 (just downgraded from 6.0.1).
Would love to be able to run a custom rom like LineageOS and have perm root, but if that requires tripping Knox, its not worth it to me.
