[Q] knox bypassing/disabling

Hi there! Has anyone managed to bypass the knox counter and flash custom kernel/recovery on 4.3 without flag being increased? If this isn't possible, has anybody mabaged to remove the knox files from a firmware and has full functionality?

No...
On the note 3 forum people have managed to root with a special root and flash firmware with mobile odin v.3.85 without trigging the knox flag.
From what i understand a restore with recovery will still trigger it .

Few questions about rooting this device

Mainly Knox Counter stuff.
1. would rooting trip my knox?
2. would installing such apps like Titanium backup/xposed trip my knox?
3.would installing a custom recovery such as CWM/TWRP trip my knox?
If I read it correctly somewhere. As long as I don't install any custom rom/kernel . My Knox Counter will be okay?

Continue reading. It depends what version you have weather you can optain root. You cannot install cwm or twrp. Must use safestrap or flashfire. Use towel root to root the phone if your version is compatible
It's G900A.

Well there only about 5 different stock firmwares that have been released for the G900a. Just cause its a G900a don't mean it can be rooted.

1- It depends of how you root it. If your root does not involve modifying bootloader/recovery/kernel, no. For examples, there are methods where you use towelroot on an older android version, then update the phone with a modifies update file (with no modification to the kernel). That does not trip knox. But if you use something like CF-autoroot that touches your recovery, then yes, you will trip knox.
2- No.
3- Most definitely yes. Any recovery that is not signed by samsung for your phone will trip your knox.

N910TUVU2EPG2 official firmware tripped KNOX

Hi guys
Last night I upgraded to N910TUVU2EPG2 official rom. My phone wasn't rooted and I was of official marshmallow rom but to my surprise after the upgrade to EPG2.... MY KNOX WAS TRIPPED
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 (2)
What am I supposed to do?
I mean I didn't do anything it was OTA UPDATE
Did you buy the device new? I have a refurbished note 4, and when I got it knox was tripped. I'm not sure if the previous user had rooted the device or if all refurbished devices have knox tripped on them for warranty reasons.

I have flashed official rom through Odin but my phone was never rooted. I was using knox since last 1 yr I can definitely say it wasn't tripped but yesterday there was an upgrade of abt 309 mb and suddenly I knox was tripped .
Do I have any option now?
I can't even check for official updates now it says
"The operating system on your device has been modified in an unauthorized way .try downloading software updates using smart switch on your computer or visit a customer service center. "
I can't connect through kies 3 and smart switch as well... Fail to initialize error in smart switch and in kies it just disconnects the phone when I try upgrading
First, if your device is over a year old the warranty is over anyway. Try using Odin to reset your firmware. Download from a reputable place like Sam mobile then let us know how it's going.

Is there any chance of returning Knox to it original count that is 0x0? I mean if I flash the original rom?
Or is the game over now?
If you've tripped Knox it's over. Are you still under warranty?

No I m not under warranty just concerned about OTA's and Knox software. That's it but I guess its a Game Over for me
You can always use Odin to update your device.give me a minute and I'll find a Sam mobile download app for your pc. It'll help you download the latest firmware.

How easy to trip knox

Hi guys I had thes8 plus and first thing I did was root and flash custom Rom when it come to selling it to get the note 8 I hated how many apps where still broken from tripping knox
My question is I don't want to trip knox again on my note 8 but how easy is it to trip knox?
Can any apps from app store trip it by mistake or using adb to say go to full immersive mode?
Or a couple off modded apps like YouTube modded?
Thanks

The only thing that will trip knox is flashing a custom recovery - which is required to root.
Don't root and you will be fine.
no apps can trip knox
adb wont either

You can use Odin without tripping Knox, you can flash other Samsung firmware and it won't be tripped just don't Odin a custom recovery.

Kind of you could still flash stock firmware fine if you needed to recover from a soft brick of some sort.
But yeah apart from that just stay away from it

It has the recovery needed to root (trip Knox) and has instructions on how to flash it. Does not get any more straight forward than this.

Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and knox

Hello, i have question. If i root my phone or flash rom is there any way to get knox and get the phone unrooted, with official firmware? Via odin? Please tell about that, i need to know if i lose knox FOREVER...
Thank you.
Once you have rooted or install a custom OS onto your Samsung Device you will trip Knox and Knox will be disabled on your device.

You can unroot by flashing stock firmware, but you will still lose Knox forever (including secure folder, etc.). Knox can't be untripped.
