Note 8 N950F stuck with Knox Enrollment, KC Client And Retail Mode - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Hello.
I recently purchased Note 8. Yesterday, I installed the INS Rom N950FXXU5CSA3 so that i can get to ONE UI Pie Beta 2. After rebooting device started configuring Knox and these Knox enrollment, KC client and Retail mode apps got installed. When trying to enter Retail Mode using Pass "5444" the app crashes. However, without entering Retail Mode app i was able to uninstall it.
Know I am stuck with Knox Enrollment and KC Client. I couldn't figure out a way to bypass or uninstall these apps. Due to these there is no Google Play Store and I can't even change my wallpaper. It says "Security Policy restricts you from changing wallpaper" .
I have also tried to flash stock Oreo Roms with different CSC but no luck.
Can anyone plz help me. This is driving me crazy.

Sounds like you may have corrupted the internal storage on your device. You will need to reformat it and reinstall the OS again.

[Q] Help! Can't download any apps...

Hi
i tried to download an app but that didnt work - i was able to download payed apps and update the apps. So i followed all the help and forum advices but still could not download free apps. I have now done a soft reset and it is still not working - it got worse to not installing any apps or updates. I used the Sony Update Service Tool and did a reinstall of the newest Firmware, still i cannot download any apps!
thanks for your support

no thats the thing, it shows nothing...it just displays the Blue bar and downloading. I now rerouted the phone to connect through the USA via my own VPN tunnel i have, and it works. So it must be something wrong with the Swiss or German Play Servers - or my settings registered at those servers.
I also noticed that even after a reset not everything is deleted on the phone. For example my phone still lists all visited access points under the wifi tab. I wiped it, flashed it, rooted it and it still has those settings there...so strange. Also the backup tool from sony is crap

[Q] Unrooting/custom device status (T-599N)

Hi friends,
I have a T-599N from MetroPCS that I previously rooted using Cydia Impactor for Link2SD purposes. I unrooted upon not needing this option anymore, and have become extremely paranoid after seeing that my device status is still custom. Here's what I've tried so far:
-Factory data reset
-Cache wipe
-TriangleAway
-Removing the SD card/battery and rebooting
Now the good news:
-My counter never changed and is at 0 (was shocked to see this when I went to unroot and used TriangleAway the first time)
-My binary is still listed as Samsung Official. On that note, I never installed any custom firmware. So whenever I reset, I get Metro's original firmware - complete with the bloatware.
-I can't do a software update from the phone itself obviously, but when plugged in with Kies, it seemingly recognizes the firmware and tells me there's no update available.
So is there anyway to fix this, or am I just forever stuck with "Custom" status? I'm just paranoid because I already had to replace my phone once, and I'm not sure what Metro's policy is. I'm unrooted... but yeah. (I know; my dumb a** should've waited for my warranty to expire before rooting, but I really needed the space at the time )
Any help would be appreciated!

[Q] Xposed and Reactivation Lock R/L on Samsung Galaxy S6 / E

I found out many people are facing this on multiple threads
So i decided to create one separately.
I have a new SM-G925F running 5.0.2 SG6E
Once you root the device the Reactivation Lock becomes ON
You cant turn it off even from the FindMyPhone site
The Root i used PingPong Tool
Once you ran it you can turn R/L off. I still couldn't
even i created a new Samsung Account and used Smart Switch,
Even Removing the account did not work
How to over come this to install xposed and its framework!?
P.S Reactivation Lock stops you from flashing Xposed on Download Mode via Odin v3 ?

Android Pay help

Trying to use Android Pay on a stock, unrooted Nexus 6 using 6.0.1 build MMB30G on T-Mobile but having some issues.
If I try and add a card via the app, when I click the + sign and hit add card I get an error saying network error and thats it. I also cannot use the app to pay, keeps saying card cannot be used right now. Its a TD Bank debit card which is listed as supported on AP's support page.
Anyone have some ideas on whats going on or what I can do to fix it? Phone was wiped completely clean to this build using the nexus toolkit like 2 weeks ago. bootloader is unlocked but thats it. I've cleared data on the app, force stopped it, disabled it so it reverted to the original version installed and also redownloaded the updated version. app version 1.3.122316814
I also added a card via the website but it won't show up in the app, something is definitely not syncing across.

Google Play Services not working

Hey,
I bought a Nokia 7 Plus TA-1062 from China. After it arrived I installed the global android version using the instructions provider here. I then side loaded a 8.1.0 version with Security path from 1st of August. The phone is functioning fine in terms of ability to browse web/take calls/use camera/etc. - HOWEVER - during any of these updates I wasn't able to use any of Google's services (Play Store/Cloud login/Updates). It's just stuck on 'Checking info...' and sometimes notifies it wasn't able to connect.
When I look at the Google Play Services logs (using the *#*#426#*#* code) I see that the connection is failing constantly. I've tried reseting the cache/data of all related apps and the phone itself without help.
Anyone knows how to solve this? Why are the Google Play Services not working?

I am also the Chinese version of Nokia 7plus, also found this problem, the message can not be pushed!
flashing gapps would solve the problem if you have a recovery installed, but since we cannot unlock our bootloader, you're ****ed

Thanks for replying - I'm new to all this and would like to learn more -
1. What does it mean to have "recovery installed"? I'm able to enter the recovery console on boot via the power button+up volume key trick (that's how I sideloaded the 8.1 version), I'm guessing that's not it?
2. What does it mean to unlock the bootloader? how do you know if your bootloader is locked or not?
3. and probably most important - how do you flash gapps?? That's something that I'd like to try, maybe my phone is already unlocked by some sheer luck (doubt it since it came in a sealed box)
