Disabling Knox on Tab S 8.4 4G



I'm brand new to this website, and have only signed up because I cannot find a solution for this problem. I have always used the forum to get answers, but never though to join! My Galaxy Tab S 8.4 4G T705Y was put through the CF-Auto-Root method, and no a glitch at all. Very smooth. By the way I checked the ChainFire website to make sure I was using the latest. When my device started up I noticed, as I have done before with my Nexus phones, that SuperSU has been added. Good Sign!

But when I open SuperSU I was prompted to update the Binary. Then I pressed 'continue', used the 'normal' method, and waited. It then asked me if I would like to Disable Knox. Yes I would! FAILED TO DISABLE KNOX. Shut down SuperSU. Unhappy Face. As you can see at this point, I am not very up to speed with my rooting knowledge.

So then I decided to select the 'never' option to updating SuperSU, and still it failed to update the binary, I'd say due to Knox stopping it from gaining access.

So my pickle is this: I can't update SuperSU because Knox will not allow me to use SuperSU. I cannot simply hit yes to disabling Knox in SuperSU, as that didn't work for me. I also tried finding something called Knox on my tablet and it seems to be very elusive. I tried updating SuperSU on Play Store also, but to no avail!

I am also unable to use any third party app to do so as I need to grant them access in SuperSU before they can begin! And around I go...

There is a guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2540761 but it's not for my device so I'm a bit hesitant to start trying random things, as my device is working great atm!

Any info or help would be greatly appreciated!



install xposed, no knox?



I have a rooted s5 with lollipop 5.0. I managed to root it without tripping Knox by downgrading and using towelroot, then using mobile Odin to install a rooted version of lollipop. I followed the guide here here

Is there a similar sneaky way I can install xposed without tripping Knox? If I do it the above way using mobile Odin, will it trip knox?

What do I lose when tripping knox?

Xtrestolite on G920I 5.1.1 Stock without Knox Trip?



Hi,

I'm wanting to flash the Xtrestolite ROM on my G920I with stock 5.1.1. After reading through a lot of the post containing the rom, it seems like people are saying as long as you don't change the bootloader, your knox counter won't be tripped. Is that true or am I not understanding? If there is a way to flash Xtrestolite without tripping knox, can someone please give me a quick rundown so I don't accidentally trip knox? I'll be starting from a stock g920i with android 5.1.1.

On a side note, I want the fingerprint scanner to work under Xtrestolite but that looks like it's available in the addon package.

Thanks!
