Just flashed and went, haven't renamed anything, no extra tweaks (except the sound mod) and using stock kernel

I have a question.. So i updated to the newest firmware MK3 with stock everything, stock recovery, stock kernel, stock rom.. Now I am wondering if I can root now without bricking the device.I have not looked into this so I don't know how. I am just looking to root this device. And it does have KNOX because I looked at it on setting where android manager is too but KNOX is not on.
Your Knox boot loader is always "on".
But it can be rooted easily just read around on these forums. I think the easiest way would be to flash cwm or another custom recovery in Odin then flash either cnexus' stock rom with root or one of the other 4.3 stock roms we got here. But you said you just want root so you could flash the supersu zip in cwm then. Either way you won't brick your phone just trip Knox counter in bootloader.

well the other thing is that i hate is that i have a mac so odin isn't available to Macs. So you have a other way possible?
I haven't ever tried it but maybe mobile Odin would work

Is there a new Sprint VVM (visual voice mail) app in this? Can someone extract it for us, please? :fingers-crossed:
For those of you that need it, I extracted the stock MK3 tar from Kies (since all other sites are ridiculously slow) and I'm uploading it to my site and AFH right now
Will post as soon as it's ready

I have stock 4.1.2, MD4 baseband.
What do you suggest I do to upgrade to 4.3 without the knox boot?
the ota notification is getting annoying....

What does voiding Knox mean? Boot loader flag goes from 0x0 to 0x1
Notes about Knox:
FLASHING A: CUSTOM KERNEL or CUSTOM RECOVERY on MK3 boot loader VOIDS KNOX
CANNOT DOWNGRADE TO OLDER FIRMWARE!
Composed of an OS side and firmware (bootloader-side) implementation. Apps (OS components) can be removed, but the firmware components CANNOT.
You can still root on the new firmware...but you can't flash a custom recovery or custom kernel, or else you will trip Knox12
95% that we will be able to run it without the MK3 bootloader
Otherwise I have a few tricks up my sleeve to get everything to work right
We will be able to flash the new modem though, as soon as I'm done pulling the files I need from this test device11
Yes that was the point of me saying that lol...meaning that you get 4.3, without the Knox bootloader.

I'll clear this up right now because there seems to be a lot of confusion. [size=+1]You CAN root on 4.3. BUT, if you have the Knox bootloader, it will trip the Knox flag.[/size]
What this means for us is that if you flash my 4.3 ROM, you have NOTHING to worry about, because you WILL NOT have the Knox bootloader.
All the issues related to 4.3 (bricks, "not being able to root", etc) are a result of the Knox bootloader. So if you DO NOT HAVE the Knox bootloader, then there is absolutely nothing you should worry about when it comes to upgrading to TW 4.3.
