That's correct for both.
Stock images are trusted by the trusted boot module that determines whether to trip Knox or not.
And as the images do not contain a user data image, user data is retained. Still, it wouldn't hurt to backup your important stuff anyway. I did this the other week, and expected to have to set up my phone again. But when it turned on, it was as if I hadn't done anythingbut I had, as root was gone (which was installed to /system).
lol! So you didn't had to set anything up again? All your settings remained?

Yup! Only things that were installed as root. So SuperSU was confused it had no binary etc. But don't take it as gospel. Wouldn't want people to assume it will always happen. Or if a setting in Odin got ticked and formatted user data. Always be careful. Always! Backups are sacred
SM-G9200 HK Version
I have the HK S6, and i want to know if it is possible to flash the UK ROM onto the phone. I am worried to root it and proceed with process - as the phone is a dual-sim phone - whilst euro and US phones are all single sim.... I want to know whether it is possible to FLASH the ROM so i can use the Gear VR which i have brought from Korea....
Apprecitae any help given...

What is the official factory unlocked firmware for the UK model? and would flashing that firmware enable you to get ota's faster than the network locked model? (EE UK)

Is it possible to only flash system partition through ODIN not the whole package? I am rooted and want to unroot so I was wondering if there's a way to just flash system.
Can I flash XEU firmware with odin to my network locked model? I'm on EE and would like to have the unlocked unbranded version on my device?
XEU version http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/d.../SM-G920F/XEU/

You can flash any version but of course it will still remain locked.
Thanks for your reply i'm just wanting to receive ota's faster than my network (EE UK) will push out to us so do you think that flashing a unlocked version will work?
I think OTA's are slow no matter what I have the XEU unlocked version and no OTA's whatsoever so far.
If you just want to unroot, SuperSU does have a "Full Unroot" option.

Remember, you can just use SamFirm to download this yourself - quicker than anything else5Guys,
Let's all chill and have some fun. I have spent almost my entire Friday on fire trying to solve the same issues as you are currently experiencing with the firmware link I have posted.
Sooo... let me explain before you begin recovery (and it will work, believe me!). 1) worry not!) 2).... the whole wrong comes from Odin. No matter what version of Odin you're using (and I used 3.10.6) and what firmware are you trying to flash (original, not so original, with MD5 or without) Odin will **** up your phone and get you stuck to the bloody "Downloading" screen. For me it happened after having a custom ROM installed and trying to revert to Vodafone UK original rom (namely "G920FXXU1AOCZ_G920FVFG1AOC4_G920FXXU1AOCW_HOME.tar.md5"). DITTO! On some S6s ODIN will ruin your life and you can check that there are other similar horror stories around.
HOW DO I FIX THIS?
Well... pretty simple! Thank God! The idea is that once you reboot you phone and it shows as stuck in "Download" screen you have to flash the "recovery.img" that is actually inside the ".TAR" or ".TAR.MD5" file you have just flashed.
To do so you have to actually put the "recovery.img" you have just extracted from the ".TAR.MD5" (or just ".TAR) into a flashable file that ODIN understands. Yes, your'e right, in a blah-blah.tar.md5 or blah-blah.tar file.
To do so I have downloaded and installed 7Zip (since it's able to mangle .tar files as opposed to WinRAR) and also downloaded a "pristine" .tar file like the TWRP recovery (e.g. twrp-2.8.6.2-zeroflte.img.tar). The TWRP fil actually contains in it a modified "recovery.img" file.
Further on I have created a copy of the TWRP recovery file and named it "my-recovery.img.tar" (or call it whatever it fits you), opened it up in 7Zip and just dragged the "recovery.img" (you have extracted previously from the exact firmware ODIN has ruined at flashing last time) over the existing one in the archive. Click OK when 7Zip will prompt you that you are going to overwrite the existing "recovery.img" and you are done.
Now simply flash the "my-recovery.img.tar" via ODIN to you S6 and once done you'll have a functional phone with the latest firmware!
DON'T FORGET to go into the newly created recovery and factory reset! For your own safety the CSC has to be aligned from one old firmware to the new one.
Here is the recovery image for Italy (Vodafone) 5.0.2 G920FXXU1AODG to get you out of the trouble with the latest firmware:
my-recovery.img.tar
ATTENTION
While the above described procedure will get you out of trouble caused by ODIN and out of the "Downloading" mode it will not actually solve the whole issue. I just discovered myself that once I tried again the same ODIN firmware re-flashing with a different firmware I got stuck to the same nightmare.
The solution is, once you go through the procedure I have described, to open up Samsung Smart Switch (the new "KIES" for S6 and S6 Edge), go to "MORE" --> "Emergency software recovery and initialization" and perform that task! I will actually re-write the latest firmware you have flashed to your phone BUT will also solve the ODIN issues. On my phone, after doing so, I was able to flash this latest Vodafone Italy I have uploaded here.
The "Emergency software recovery and initialization" procedure has to be completed BEFORE you finish the setup procedure of your S6, you know the "WiFi" / Accounts / blah, blah (after flashing the firmware) and not afterwards. It least so I discover it to work.
Please let me know how this tutorial worked for you.
