No you still lose Samsung pay, Samsung pass and secure folder and OTA (but you can update through odin) because of the Knox being tripped to 0x1 (No reversing that) .
But everything else should be fine.

Even with tripped Knox, you can still install OTA on non rooted/custom recovery stock filmware.

Root and Samsung pay?

Just have a question if I root my phone will I be unable to use Samsung pay even if I restore to stock firmware and unroot it? Is that's the case I think I will just live with it.

hi,
in sort yes, if you root you will trip Knox counter Yes, even if you flash back to stock Rom, your Knox counter will show. that's it's tripped (0x 1.. etc.) So you won't be able to use Samsung Pay.
All my devices Note 2,Note 3 , Note 4
Note 8.0 tablet is rooted Not the Note5, so far not interested. It's smooth enough, Themes in Theme Store i am happy with.
Battery is very good overall.
I get my "root " enjoyment " with all my other devices....!
Just my take on situation of root re Note5.
Good luck
Yes. Even if u ruu back to total stock and unroot your knox wil still be tripped and samsung pay will not work. This happened on my s6. After unroot and odin back it still was tripped. For this reason i choose to not root my note 5

Maybe there will be a way to reset the Knox counter in the future. I had used triangles away for my S4 in the past.

Samsung Pay integrates Knox. Rooting your phone trips a Knox flag that can never be reset, and when that flag is tripped, Knox will not authenticate some actions such as Samsung Pay. This means you will not be able to use Samsung Pay any more. Verify your Knox security flag is now 0x1 (tripped/void) instead of 0x0 (secure/intact) to confirm this. I believe this flag is displayed in the bootloader and/or diagnostic menus. Magisk v12 offers an experimental option to fake a 0x0 Knox, if your Knox flag is already void it won't hurt to mod the phone again to try this. I haven't found anyone that has tried to use Samsung Pay after installing Magisk v12 so there are no guarantees if this will work.

Isn't 0x0 Knox the same as 0x1 Knox = 0?

"0x" means hexadecimal, not multiply by zero -_-
Can someone confirm if it works with Magisk v12. Really wish to use Samsung Pay but this tripped Knox thing is annoying.

Sadly no, it dosent work already rooted with magisk v12 and no luck with spay. Just hoping it gets fixed in upcoming versions.

hi guy plz help
yesterday my note 8 sm-n950f root after note working samsung pay and health secure folder after unroot my phone
odin flash original firmware agen coming this err plz help
Once you root your phone 1 time, you never get that features back because Knox is triggert to 0x1 now. You can't revert that

Samsung Pay will never work again after root since Knox is tripped but you can probably get AndroidþGoogle Pay to work. You can get Samsung Health to work though. With root, edit build.prop, change ro.config.tima from 1 to 0 then reboot.

Uh ok, I highly doubt that though. To get Samsung Pay working again they'll have to replace the MB or some other hardware. Regardless your phone will need to be serviced if they even agree to do that for free which I doubt as well.

thanx bro i try ....
Reflash your stock firmware in normal Odin and you'll have everything working correctly once again.
Edit- sorry just saw you are on the F variant.. I know on SD models you just need to refresh stock firmware and Knox will be 0x0. I think the same applies for the F variant ONLY if you haven't flashed TWRP (also likely Magisk since it modifies the stock boot image)

For F models/Exynos, the only way to root is to install TWRP. Installing TWRP is what trips Knox.
Yeah I thought there was another root method, but it was the sampwnd method for the s8 lol. Well, looks like he may just be SOL.

No, once rooted, secure folder and samsung pay are gone forever, knox flag 0x1 can not be reset to 0x0, that's it, no workarounds for this

You can unroot no problem, but there will still be evidence the phone has been rooted so Warranty would become void. In addition as Samsung Pay and Secure folder require uncompromised KNOX security they will no longer work - EVER.

The effect of unrooting will be that some apps that detect root and refuse to work, will work again, just that, if you already rooted your device, then enjoy the freedom you obtained, add try to make the most out of it, mods, roms, debloat, etc

Hey mate. After unlocking the bootloader and rooting, the fuse on your mobo gets flagged and the KNOX is tripped as 0x1. No way to revert that, as it is a hardware fuse. So, Samsung Pay, Secure folder will no longer work on your mobile, no matter what you do. With right rom and Magisk, you can get SHealth and GooglePay enabled.

Googlepay is working. Samsung is not. Btw thanks for replying bro.

I agree with Jonny908. You will need to buy a new phone, or change the board (resulting in a mismatched IMEI) as there isn't any way to "un-blow" a fuse.
