<SOLVED> No Knox App?

Just curious, I saw the knox app om all international and Tmobile versions but I cant find it on my att version. BY Knox I mean the secure profile switcher.
Update 1 :
Koars215 received a correspondence from Samsung:
"after days on days of speaking with att and samsung... corporate finally spilled the beans lol this is coming from samsung mouth the agent told me that att push the device for purchased and did not look over the software in full before putting it on the shelf. They said the reason we can see the knox app in the installation manager is because by default it should be. Also its something that cant be found on its samsung app market place.
END RESULT: Samsung said within the next 1-2 weeks it will push a software update for At&t and t-mobile(i had no clue t-mobile was having the same issue)"
Update 2:
Get the knoxstub.apk from note 3 international and placed it in system after being rooted and now knox is working perfect. Tnx to cburnett
Update 3:
Knoxstub is attached. Tested and it works :good: Tnx to cburnett for the file.
Just open the apk and install normally and let it do its thing.

Exactly I can't find it either.

I was just going to post this to. It's in the application manager could extract it with file explorer but should be installed already?

You would think it should be installed with an icon on the first page also!! considering how much Samsung is proud of it

Yep my thoughts exactly. Lol I was bored messing with my new toy and noticed that it's not there weird timing you posted that lol

I've searched high and low but can not figure out how to access/install/enable knox. I also see it running in application manager.

Me neither. It's strange

To activate it go to Security>Device Administrators.
Word to the wise, if you care about Root or Bootloader Unlock; becareful. No one really knows what Knox changes hardware wise, IF it even changes anything hardware wise and software wise.
Unfortunately there's no way for us on AT&T N3 to disable it completely. But so far, it's not running on mine.

How do you use Knox on the att version? How do I get credentials for it

Still it doesn't show up after I activate it.

Same here checking knox in administrators does nothing. Could it be that I'm using the sim from my note 2 and not the one that was in the box?

Guys Knox is not an app. It's a security protocol that keeps your information private and also your activity. Anything done in Knox, stays in Knox. Once it's activated it's on and monitors your security.
Here's some more information on how it works.... http://www.samsung.com/global/business/mobile/solution/security/samsung-knox
At&t Note III...& At&t G Pro

mine don't work either

@Jammol your wrong on the the other company's such as sprint there is an/a app on the home screen that allows you to place things inside the container and also Knox have its own store with supported apps. I was on the phone with Samsung advanced tech support and they were scratching their head on why it isn't installed on the device but it is found in the installation manager

I said its not an app because I don't classify it as one. Yes its a container, an environment, an app.
At&t Note III...& At&t G Pro

All variants have this Knox app that switches environments, but not at&t and thats what we are asking: Where is it?

I will keep you guys updated this will be round 2 with advance tech support (samsung+att)... My guess is if others are having this problem that they will end up pushing a update that fixes this problem. My buddy got the Note 3 for sprint and i saw that its visible from the home screen and had to download the knox store onto the note 3. When i later got my note 3 from att that was the first app i looked for and i wasn't available.

I can't totally agree with that. Simply activating it as an administrator does nothing.

Does anyone's advanced sms actually work?

I have the options menu to turn everything on but I can't actually see if anyone read my text or if they are typing. My friend updated as well and is on t mobile and we can't see anything for anyone or for each other.

I haven't got it to work either 2 Galaxy tmo s6 devices together.

I've tried every possible combo but it still doesn't work. The send text button will get or orange box around it but doesn't show when anything is read.
Can someone post a screenshot of what it looks like when it works?

Honestly I could care less about this, I would like group messaging to work correctly.

Call tapping !!!

Hello guys !
This is a serious matter for me and i want a fact related (maybe) answer. I want to know if there is any way to stop call tapping on note 5. Or if there is a device that cannot be tapped.
Thank you

Try getting a Blackphone. Just do a Google search for it. The latest one actually looks pretty decent.

Instead of buying the blackphone or blackphone 2 you could download the maker's (silent cirlce) app "silent phone". it let's you make encrypted calls and texts. And if you wanted to be really cautious install the TOR software "Orbot". If your note 5 is rooted you can set ALL traffic to go over the TOR network.

With the impending charge locking update, what are options to keep the Note 7 going?

I'd like to get the Pixel XL, but as it stands it still seems that isn't yet in stock and I have my doubts it'll be available by the nineteenth of this month.
Is there a way to keep the phone from auto updating like it did with the 60% charge restriction without having to root?
Will rooting and using a custom ROM become the only way to keep the Note 7 running come the new update?
Will rooting then impact returning the phone with T-Mobile? Or can you return it to "stock" in order to do so?

I'm rooted with stock os, I just disabled all the samsung crap and didn't get the previous update. So I don't see this coming either. I used titanium backup freeze/ remove method and haven't had any unauthorized updates pushed to my phone. At this point is only way you can do it or else be stuck unable to charge your phone in a week.

Tiger, I've never rooted a phone, but I'm no tech dummy either. What is a good resource to walk me through the process? What will I need to download? PC vs. Mac?

lol....unless your lucky like he is and rooted and stayed on the original firmware there is no way to root and your on the 60% update so no go.
you can roll back to the previous firmware get rid of the 60% update but thats it.
i am also not aware of any package disablers which work now either to prevent the next OTA
there is an ADB method but its not working on all devices from what ive seen

Only way at this point is download the vanilla firmware in the download section. Flash it via Odin, root it right away, and don't let it get online. Load titanium, find the app to download to sd card, then disable to your hearts content and you will be able to keep your phone.

yeah not gona happen sadly..... you cannot flash any firmware previous to PI3...which means the sprint root method does not work.
i got onto package disabler early so I have disabled everything so Im not worried about the impending OTA.
if they flag the imei thats another thing

Go to note7alliance.com , everything is there to block the update. All of the information is free, and they will help if you have any questions. They also have a Facebook page called Note 7 Alliance.

Got an iPhone 7 plus today in matte black. So far so good. Couldn't resist the price so I went for it. T-Mobile is now refunding me my money for the note 7 lol. I'll just wait for Note 8.

I use a Verizon Note 7 with my tmobile sim. Never receives updates. All of my samsung phones in the last 4 years has been verizon phone using tmo sims. If I ever wanted to get an update I used Kies. I will never connect my note 7 to kies or any samsung SW.

I'm thinking of turning in my phone for a Gear S3. That way I can still use Samsung Pay. I'll just fire up my Note 3 and wait for the Note 8. I'll just keep my two S-pens for the Note 3. They even fit into the Note 3's silo.

I use my 1+3 with my Gear S3 and it works just fine. I could never get an Iphone in trade of this like the other poster. Thats just going backwards in my mind

Calling plus - simultaneous voice and data

Does above know when this is coming to the note 8. That's a major reason I upgraded from the note 4. I was shocked when I upgraded from the note 2 and lost simultaneous voice and data and have been suffering ever since.

Patiently waiting on this as well
Update: Now working! 11/22/2017
Followed instructions on post 41 in this tread (Thanks to BlueFox for sharing The original how To post)

when sprint release this for the note 8 or you maybe able to pull this form a rooted s8 by spr.

well when i rooted spr note 8 VoLTE and WiFi was working hmmm please don't ask because idk how this is without the up date. yes it works as i can make call but it has no toggle for it. i will take a screen shot in a sec. aslo do any one might know where VoLTE is stored at, if i can find out where this is at....maybe i can pull it for root and non rooted phones (maybe Non-rooted phones)

Here is a picture

Waiting on this as well..come on Sprint

Maybe I can give the xml file for Bolts but u gotta have root

Just did a 5 minute phone call while using my hotspot to my tv for Netflix and I noticed it wasn't cutting off so I tried some web surfing
while on call and it worked.
Didn't know this was coming back? Haven't had it since the S3

Found this
I found these using an activity launcher, i still havent tried it yet(volte), and i also found a call recorder, and the spam and caller id app but i dont think it works atm

based off his screenshots it looks like hes running the XAS software with sprint csc.
If you flash the unlocked tar image to the phone it will give you volte, but it wasn't working for me unless i was already on wifi calling and then left the wifi network i could continue using data, once i got off phone and made a new call on cellular it wasn't working.

Any updates how we can enable the "Talk and Data" option? with all the technology of today, its amazing this isnt enabled with any software release out of the box

Mine works on incoming calls only. If I make a call it does not work
Sent from my SM-N950U using XDA-Developers Legacy app

It sucks that yes with all this technology, Sprint is so F behind. Volte should be available for unlock and carrier phone right out of the box. I mean for carrier S8 it came out a bit late, but not as late as the Note 8.
And why does Tmob. Is able to do Volte and hotspot. Just like that.
If I wasn't under a grandfather plan, Zero plan, I will have ditch Sprint long time ago.
Thank God for the gurus here at XDA, makes for some tweaking, while we wait for the Calling Plus...

No not that it was never coming back. It just wasn't coming back till Sprint had VoLTE infrastructure in place and they turn it on.
I think it is still a year or two out before they get that going. The good thing is if they actually activate it our phones are compatible for it.
Turning this stuff on, on our end won't work till Sprint turns it on, on their end.
