So i just googled a little bit and i found an spanish tutorial how to root the SM-G920F on 5.1.1 do i deciced to translate it…hopefully i translated everything correct :p

First of all:

-	Disable Reactivation lock by going into Settings -> Lock screen and security -> Find My Mobile -> Login with your Samsung Account and then disable Reactivation lock

-	Disable Fingerprint screen lock type by going into Settings -> Lock screen and security -> Screen lock type and select any other screen type than Fingerprint

1.)	Download this and install it: http://www.samsung.com/us/smart-switch/

2.)	Download Odin from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2711451

3.)	Download the enginnering-bootloader from here (btw…write your email down in there to get the downloadlink): http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/505411/G920F Engineering Bootloader 5.0.2.zip

4.)	Download the latest 2.8.7.1 TWRP recovery from here: https://dl.twrp.me/zeroflte/

5.)	Download the latest UniBase Kernel from here: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/sams...mod-kernel-t3100395/post60533128#post60533128

6.)	Copy your kernel on the phone

7.)	Shut down device and start in Download Mode (with the phone turned off keep pressing on power, volume down and home at the same time until a green screen pops up, then you'll need to press on the volume up key)

8.)	First you'll need to flash the engineering bootloader. Open ODIN and click on BT and select the appropriate sbin file downloaded at step 2. Flash it and wait for the device to reboot.

Don't be alarmed by the green text that will appear in the top left corner when the Samsung logo is being displayed. It's 100% normal and the device hasn't suffered any damage.

9.)	Enter Download Mode again and this time in ODIN, go to options and uncheck the Reboot device. Click on AP and select the TWRP 2.8.7.1 and flash it.

10.)	The device won't reboot because you've unchecked the Reboot device option. You'll need to press on power + volume down + home until the device turns off and then pres on power + volume up + home until you'll see the device enter the TWRP recovery. At that point the buttons can be released.

11.)	Inside TWRP press on Install and navigate to where you have stored the custom kernel and rest of the files. Select the custom kernel

12.)	Congratulations now you have a rooted G920F with Knox fuse intact!

13.)	You can now flash anything custom on your device without tripping Knox as long as you don't flash the bootloader with a stock one, you need to keep the engineering bootloader flashed.

If you want to return to stock at anytime you can flash a full stock ROM from Samsung and all should be fine. Knox isn't going to get tripped because everything is returning to stock, even the bootloader.

14.)	WARNING: Before flashing anything else after you've successfully acquired root you should backup your EFS partition just in case via TWRP recovery.

Only problem now is…the fingerprint-sensor won’t work with the 5.0.2 bootloader!
