I have added link and MD5 in post #409 for future users.
No it's not but flash recovery trip knox like rooting, except for 605 with special method.Is root required to install custom recovery?
Anyone have any suggestions for me? Much thanks for any help...Guys, I have a bit of a problem... just got the P607T and used the TWRP+SU to root - everything worked fine, root was in place, installed some apps... rebooted the next day and now I am stuck on the T-Mobile splash screen and the tablet won't boot... tried to repeat TWRP+SU process and also tried to install the stock recovery from OP, no luck - advise is appreciated. Some things I did:
• add an underscore to the poweron.ogg file so i don't have to hear the t-mobile jingle
• used titanium to freeze all knox related stuff
did you install xposed framework, maybe a module which is not compatible with our device ?Anyone have any suggestions for me? Much thanks for any help...

I want to try this with your file, have a few questions because I soft bricked my p600 with the original method a month or so ago (was able to save it).rooted my tab a few days ago now, just do the folowing :
1) use ODIN 3.09 to flash CF-Auto-Root-lt03wifi-lt03wifixx-smp600.tar.md5 (link here : http://download.chainfire.eu/378/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-lt03wifi-lt03wifixx-smp600.zip or https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/11938873/CF-Auto-Root-lt03wifi-lt03wifixx-smp600.zip and MD5 is d7cbf6de350a5a15dc6e9ac22042cf95)
2) use TB to remove unwanted apps (like knox)
I also flashed TWRP but it's not mandatory (just easier to manage roms or backups).
1) you do not need files from post #1, only CF-Auto-Root-lt03wifi-lt03wifixx-smp600.tar.md5 is mandatory. After flashed, you can install TB and use it to remove KNOX.I want to try this with your file, have a few questions because I soft bricked my p600 with the original method a month or so ago (was able to save it).
1.) Do I use the original directions from post #1 and flash the new file you likedon't to instead?
2.) Once flashed and root confirmed/KNOX removed can I use TWRP manager to install recovery?
Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm still really new to rooting and about died when I soft bricked my tab.
Thanks!
Ok I found openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-lt03wifiue.img.tar1) you do not need files from post #1, only CF-Auto-Root-lt03wifi-lt03wifixx-smp600.tar.md5 is mandatory. After flashed, you can install TB and use it to remove KNOX.
2) It's easy to install TWRP, I've used 2.6.x version (file named : openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-lt03wifiue.img.tar) instead of 2.7.X which is already under active development. If I remember well, it's mandatory to boot into recovery for first boot just after flashing TWRP. This last step is very important or your tab will be downgraded to stock recovery.
good luck.
// I attempted to use odin to flash the file. I put it in the AP slot and selected start and a few warning boxes came up on my pc and then everything on odin greyed out and didn't do anything. //Afaik, it's lt03wifixx (ue for me)

Ok I'm all rooted and TWRP installed. I tried the recovery version you recomended and for some reason it didn't work. So i tried the latest version and its working great!// I attempted to use odin to flash the file. I put it in the AP slot and selected start and a few warning boxes came up on my pc and then everything on odin greyed out and didn't do anything. //
Ok I'm dumb. I extracted odin from the initial file and left .ini behind. Root checker says I"m currently rooted!
Will update in a few!
Thanks lightman!
