Not so much a rumor. It's embedded in Knox to completely kill the phone.

I posted a thread that got featured on the front page about it. Verizon, and AT&T subscribers are going crazy. Luckily with T-Mobile being bootloader unlocked out the box we don't have to worry about no bs like that. Sucks for everyone else though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CB620:
Root of Trust is the Knox related kill switch for the phone when root is detected. Us T-Mobile users will just lose Samsung Pay. Something I won't use anyway.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TEKHD:
Lol... Nice try [MENTION=3516441]Misterjunky[/MENTION] , I am getting the Note 5... SPen functionality is much more powerful than a good looking edge screen... I can easily emulate the Edge feature (Shortcuts/App launcher) with a simple free app like LMT, now the SPen feature... That's unique. (Plus... I can get the Note 5 64 for the price of the 32 S6+ both with same specs) Note 5 wins hands down...

I will get the Note 5... So you will see another TEKXodus N5... lol

lol... I will never join the S series... (I will never join the Dark side of the force, lol) I am a hardcore fan of the Note series.

I'm starting to agree. I wasn't much of a Samsung fan until the Note 4. Now I think I'm hooked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CB620:
Why wouldn't you be? lol. S series was nice. Even when I saw the S6 I was tempted but everyone knows the Note series takes after S series look wise. I'm glad it has the form factor it has. It is in fact a big S6 with a pen. A dope pen at that. [emoji2]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] PDXMatt:
I love the look and feel of the Note 5 and the S6 I am just constantly terrified of dropping it when I'm standing on a hard surface (concrete, blacktop, etc)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CB620:
Threw mine in a case soon as it came. Phone feels great but you don't wanna ruin it by shattering the glass.

my dude TekHD is already on the case. i'm gonna miss your ROM for the note 4 buddy.

hopefully you got something for us soon. this T mobile Rom is far too bloated for my taste
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Warrior1975:
I bought the S6 for my girl, she had a Note 3...she thought she wanted a "smaller" phone...she was wrong. I'm pretty sure she hates the S6 and would prefer her old note 3 to it. I feel terrible.

As soon as we get this kernel we are all goog:)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jthrasher47:
If we had a good kernel developer I think all they would have to do is extract our kernel and just make the same changes as they did with the AOU KERNEL for the S6., I myself can't do that building a simple ROM and compiling a kernel way different ballgame
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Numzi:
I'm glad to see you here, man! I was using the TekHD Note 4 port for my Note 3 until I got the Note 5 on Friday. Looking forward to having you a dev for this one, too.

I have the gold verus case on my N5 and it has got an amazing feel and premium look to it. To me, it's a perfect "first" case for it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] PDXMatt:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jthrasher47:

Why does everyone want to hack the kernel or wait for autoroot when other way would be to have custom recovery like twrp flashable in odin and then flash supersu zip file instead.

Wouldn't that be easier approach till/if [MENTION=2242032]chaif[/MENTION]ire releases autoroot?

Note 4 ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] PDXMatt:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] oka1:
Yes This exactly it......... I tried to modify the G920 Kernel yesterday ....... (S6 Kernel) but flying in the dark without know which thing to exactly modify....... After getting to boot once when I tried to open it up the 2nd time it bootlooped ........ then I tried a few other things ...... then Figured I ll need the kernel info ...........I have reached out to my contacts to see if it is possible to get some help...... we will see. But, one thing is for sure, it is only a matter of time....... days before a stable root method is achieved.

Thank Tekhd for getting out in front on this........
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigmase23:
I'm in! Pm sent!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jthrasher47:
I can't remember his name but the guy who made AOU kernel probably would be able to help us but then we need a custom recovery. Or either both because once we have the kernel al. All we need to do is flash SuperSU right? just like on the S6.

I highly doubt we're going to get an engineered bootloader to not trip Knox

---------- Post added at 12:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 AM ----------

It's not because we don't have patience it's because the current kernel I has a root block inside of it and they have to modify it to allow root.. a custom recovery alone would not work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] PDXMatt:
I was teasing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] THEONEMARK:
I had the AT&T variant of the phone for for a day and I returned it and got the t-mobile variant unlocked instead. I hate that they lock the bootloader!

TekHd, is it correct that Root will break Samsung Pay? Thanks in advance. .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Misterjunky:
re: root issues

Most likely root will also break the private mode.

There are apps at the playstore which hide root,

perhaps one of them might alleviate these issues.

Have a great day!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] jthrasher47:
Yes it will break Samsung pay but that's what we have Google Wallet for right

---------- Post added at 09:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

No it does not break private mode at least it does not on the S 6.. Or on our previous device so why would it on this one and hide root apps do not work for Knox issues..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] PDXMatt:
Google Wallet is nice but only uses the NFC and the MST technology.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] oka1:
This is Correct, Samsung in order to keep security, decided if you Switch off OEM Lock and the then root Samsung pay is disabled. The part that I find troubling is there are ways to keep personal info and security even in root if they Adjusted their framework, but then they could not have greater control over your device so they do not........

Hope that helps .........

Until you have the kernel with a Root mod inserted into it TWRP is going to do nothing other than possibly bootloop your device

The 2.8.7.1TWRP is the correct Recovery but without the Modded Kernel .... nothing is going to happen

When the phone is on let the drivers install. When they are all installed reboot into Download mode and let all those drivers install than follow the steps and root your device. Also make a backup.

Ok don't laugh but would the .tar.md5 at the end of the kernel name have anything to do this the Nand Write hiccup? In otherwords what if we flashed the kernel without the .md5 extension so it would flash like this: Noble_Kernel_Auto-Root_N920T.tar ? Just a thought

Edit: Name change allowed kernel to flash :D - btw I used Odin V3.10. Now will try twrp and supersu next. Will update
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] CB620:
however the file comes out when you download is what you want to flash. my files ended in .md5

1. Noble_Kernel_Auto-Root_N920T.tar.md5

2. TWRP-2.8.7.1-Alpha_N920T.tar.md5

3 I copied BETA-SuperSU-v2.49 to my internal memory of the phone and flashed with TWRP.

Note: make sure you downloaded BETA-SuperSU-v2.49 and not BETA-SuperSU-v2.46.
