Can i just install the custom rom again without a wippe?
try to install an costume rom which dosent required full wipe, but remember it will void your warranty! And if you dont like costume roms, just flash stock rom using odin!

Free version don't remove it.org just disable temporary. Add Samsung account n Samsung dive. Find my thread ' remote tracking note by Samsung' in general section

I made everything you said but the point is that i cant reset my password.
There is a forgot password option which shows up on the bottom, I believe.
You can select that and it will ask you to authenticate via your Google account, which then allows you to login.
You can then change / remove the passcode.

Hi,
Always after flashing a new custom rom the market downloading all my old apps
it's boring
I test a lot of apps and I don't want them back when I flash a new custom rom
Can somebody help me ?
Before you flash a new ROM uncheck the "back up my settings" options under privacy in the settings, or sign in using a different account. The apps are linked to you account, so every time you sign in, you will get all your apps again when using the back up settings and your account.
i've tried to uncheck the "back up my settings" but it's not working and i can't use another account because my contacts are linked with me google account
1. Reset the phone to factory settings.
2. Don't enter your Google credentials in the Setup Wizard.
3. Complete the wizards.
4. Go to Accounts in Settings.
5. Add your Google account.
This should prevent the re-installation.
I use a similar method, don't use the setup wizard and when in the OS start gmail and enter your details.

Do it start after flashing your new rom.
working ! ty both of you
Why is it when I install some ROM's after you enter your Google account info it starts automatically downloading all your apps? If going back to stock it never does, have to do it all manually.

That is not the experience I had when I flashed the official 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 RUU. As soon as I entered my Google account info all of my old apps started downloading.
I think it's because of the privacy options selected. So add the account later after installation is complete and after unchecking the privacy options and then add the google account.
Oh god I hate that crap. It's an app called mydownloads.provider in sense roms I believe and cyanogen mod has their own version of it. It's tottally up to the Rom dev weather or not its implemented in the Rom. Using titanium backup that thing is like aids when you don't have your data counter backed up before it starts downloading 100 mb of old apps. It won't run until you launch the market and accept the user agreement however so if you quickly run to "my apps" and hit cancel all it'll abort.

He meant to remove your Google account and add it back. Go to settings, scroll to Google, click your account, click the three dots at the top right and remove account. Then go to playstore and sign in back. I'm sure that's what he meant.

Hi everyone.
I'm no-one special, but I have rooted several phones. I usually wait till the ability to revert or not trip a counter (knox in this case, but most stock bootloaders have one these days afaik ). I had some spare time and have been researching for the last few hours getting my facts straight before I attempted anything. I now have root.
I'm only writing this because it wasn't too clear on the forums about rooting without tripping knox, even after some searching and reading the stickies.
I have just rooted my S5 (SM-G900F). I can confirm that the knox counter isnt tripped using a samsung phone info app i found (also double checked in dl mode).
before we start, heres some notes:
- So as far as I understand, towelroot works on more than just the SM-G900F but i suggest you check first.
- Using odin will add to your counter if you flash anything other than stock with it afaik. This was the same for me on the S3 but I had triangle away.
- Installing a custom recovery via odin will add to the knox counter obviously.
- Installing a custom recovery via another method might trip knox.
- Flashing a custom ROM will add to the counter. (couldnt anyway without custom recovery)
- Boot into download mode using VOLDOWN, HOME, POWER and click continue (i suggest un-plugging it) this will show u the counter.
- Quick view the counter with this app: Phone INFO Samsung
-With root access it might be possible to do something that will trip knox, even with it "disabled" by supersu. be careful. :angel:
- apparently if you trip knox, you cannot update the radio. quote from alan shore
- OTA updates will probably remove root
- Most places, if you trip the counter, your warranty is void.
- you can fix s health issuses caused by xposed by editing the build.prop (not sure how same that is with knox)
Heres how I did it:
(0. I actually did a OTA and security policy update check before attempting this.)
1. disable security policy updates (security) and automatic updates (about) in the settings. This is just in case. Updates might remove your root.
2. Download tr.apk from towelroot.com/ by clicking the icon. Please note that when i did this Avast AV flagged it up, which i then disabled and re-downloaded the file. Use at your own risk. I had no problems...
3. Enable Unknown Sources (settings->security), copy the apk to your sdcard install. I again got a flag from avast... i clicked ignore
4. Run it. Might take a little while...
5. Install SuperSU from the market.
6. Run super su and let it install the su binaries.
7. Depending on what you want root for, you may wish to disable knox using super su (i intend to use xposed so i did). When I attempted to let it disable knox, it failed. As it instructed, I rebooted and ran it again... all done.
Now I installed root checker and titanium backup and had a play. root works. I rebooted and checked download mode, knox counter : 0x0 root is still there after reboot. all done! Make sure you have read and understand the notes before you go off using root.
I hold no responsibility for any damage or loss of data.
I do not claim to have made anything. a big thanks to all the respective contributing devs, esp chainfire for his never ending development for android, and geohot creator of towelroot for making it all possible.
If you have errors and questions the original thread for towelroot is below:

That's all folks!
Confirmed! I tried this on my SM-G900F and:
a) knox was not tripped
b) root installed
c) device status remained official!
Great work!

So lets say I have rooted my phone with Towelroot. When I want to go for service or I would say to get a warranty back. How do I unroot it?
Thanks

Install superSU from Play and inside the app choose to unroot. Data factory reset and that should be it.

Mattyyey, maybe noob question. Root will erase internal memory? Will do factory reset?
Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Rooting should not be removing the internal memory. (Correct me if I am wrong)
They should just give you a 'superuser' right for you to be able to modify the system files, etc.
Sent from my SM-G900F
No this doesn't wipe anything, it just allows things to run with elevated permissions(root apps).
Also been exploring some more... I also now recommend you do a nandroid using online nandroid backup app as it'll do a nandroid without recovery. Then I installed exposed framework and am having fun with that hehe
Also you might wanna install busy box (titanium backup has its own)

Stock rom, N910T3
Running unofficial CM 12.1 and no dice, Work at Wholefoods and I have been using Wallet for a while now. Pretty annoyed that I can't even downgrade my google services and get the older Wallet NFC app and why did they decide to split it into 2 apps instead of just one?
Meh....
For the Note 4 (N910T), I had Tekxodus Rom URv5. Wouldn't work. Even tried disabling SU, Changing DPI, RootCloak, etc NO LUCK! However, i decided to get the stock rooted/debloated/deodexed rom - N910TUVU1COG2.
1. Backed up my current rom using TB.
2. Flash N910TUVU1COG2 rom (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347790828)
3. At first boot and setup, immediately disabled SU, and setup Lock Pin.
4. Installed Google Play Services 8.1.14_(2244331-238)-8114238-minAPI21.
5. Installed Android Pay 1.0.103131485
6. Open Android Pay and verified card.
7. Re-Enabled SU.
8. Restore Apps using TB.
Hope this helps.
The old wallet app works better and supports more cards
REAL bad experience with No Device Check (Xposed) on rooted N7100 Note 2, stock rom, 4.4.2.
Installed it, rebooted and immediately I noticed that all of my apps that require root had disappeared from not only the main screen but from the app drawer.
Thought that I would freeze it but Ti Backup wasn't there.
Went into App Manager and tried to uninstall but it would not uninstall.
Wanted to restart into recovery mode but the options were missing... just the option to restart which did not work. The phone would not restart.
Did a full shut down and restarted into recovery the conventional way and luckily got into TWRP and did a recovery. Thankfully I did a backup last night.
Before doing a recovery, I worked on the phone from a 99% charge down to 11%, so I spent some time with it.
One funny thing though, while going through all of this, I got an update to Android Pay and my camera app.
Right after that update, I opened AP and it wanted the code on the back of the card so I tapped the field and the keyboard didn't come up and that's when I decided to do the recovery from TWRP.
BTW, over the last few days I tried all of the above suggestions and none have worked but haven't tried them again after the update to Android Pay. I think that for the time being I'll just play it safe and whip out the plastic.
so basically you can't use a customized rom

Android pay is working. However I believe that may change with the next update of the Android pay app. Most likely not until the new year.
