In my opinion this device does or need root. So far it is the best device I have ever tried.

While I'd agree that this device is great, for some of us root is a necessity. I for one want full tasker support as well as titanium backup in order to freeze certain pieces of bloat that I don't want (*cough* I'm looking at you WatchOn).

is this root done via Odin on desktop? I am coming from a nexus 10. not used to Odin. Want to be sure I do it right, Also, square trade warranty won't work if knot is tripped? Or did you mean you will have to get a square trade warranty if you trip it?

I get square trade for all my gadgets. No problems with that. I just used square trade refund from my cracked ne×us 10 to get this ! Thanks for the answers! Can't wait to root and freeze some of this bloat!

Not knox is an efuse which contains one byte of data and can be written to once. Only service center can reset it

I wonder if its possible to undermine the process that displays the information from the efuse? Like implement a fake screen or overlay another image over it?

Hey can anyone flash the following on P900 with odin? I've built cwm and would like someone to test and let me know if it works or not. The stock recovery is provided just in case.

And flash the following file from the recovery to root. (For those tabs on which chainfires root didn't work). http://download.chainfire.eu/370
