The Galaxy Note 4 comes with different carriers launched in different regions of the world. The Note 4 also reached to the most popular Canadian market with the model no. SM-N910W8 reigning the throne by succeeding the Canadian Note 3. The Canadian Note 4 comes with the same specifications as all the Note 4 devices came. a 5.7 QHD display with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor clocked at 2.7 GHz and is coupled with 3 GB of RAM. However powerful may be the Note 4, the Samsung restrictions lessen it.
Samsung with its Knox security has terrified the Android users, as they no longer have the warranty if the device is tampered as the Knox security bit is set. However, there are many ways to bring back the warranty nowadays and you no longer need to worry about the Knox hell gates. So if you’re eased, here comes the exciting News that the Canadian Note 4 can now be rooted using the most popular CF-Auto-Root developed by the legendary developer Chainfire. So you can now remove all the Samsung Junk and improve your device’s performance.
The CF-Auto-Root firmware flashes the stock recovery and cache along the SuperSU binaries and SuperSU app so that users can keep their devices as close to stock as possible. Flashing this firmware is ridiculously easy if you’re familiar with the Odin flash tool, but it is stupidly dangerous if you do any mistake. So we’re here to guide you through the process of rooting your Canadian Galaxy Note 4.

n900w8 didn’t trip KNOX. Hopefully, it is the same from n910w8.
Same method, same result but try the correct CF-Auto-Root.
Flashing is easy. But i would like a sufficient sample size to show that N910w8 doesn’t trip Knox.
And the article is wrong, except in Exynos-based galaxy devices, there is no current way to undo tripped Knox warranty status flag.
