I've tripped knox on my S20 FE 5G. Is there any way to revert it back now?
Saw in some discussions that the eFuse can't be reverted. I want to use secure folder. Is there any luck?

Unfortunately luck took a permanent vacation when it comes to Samsung Knox. You might as well get a new S20 FE
I've heard that you can get back secure folder through smali patching even when Knox is tripped though I have no idea how to do this.
No, once it's tripped, it's tripped. Samsung Service Centre can't even do it.
The only way to fix it is a new mobo.
A risk you run when mucking with a Samsung... personally I don't use Knox and don't like it.

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.
Currently no one has really figured out what KNOX is. Some say it is a eFuse but there isn't any solid evidence. Even if it is a eFuse there must be some way to bypass it? We just need to knox for what it checks specifically.
Here are some facts:
Some people claim that they got their phone repaired by guarantee and it reset their KNOX counter from 1 to 0 without changing the motherboard.
SamFAIL can currently root your phone without tripping KNOX. The question is how?

Thanks didn't know such an article existed. So perhaps finding out how it detects if a non-knox kernel has been loaded and then bypass it that way.
Also do you have any idea how SamFAIL manages to keep knox 0x0?

Hmm not sure... I suspect it has something to do with having a locked bootloader on those Snapdragon models, meaning root must be achieved differently (in a way that doesn't trip knox), but I really am just speculating here. There may be more detail in the SamFail thread, or someone else might be able to better explain. I have an Exynos model.
I think that the very reason for implementing something like knox is, SAFETY for the user/owner, many see knox as a restraint, something that does not allow them to fully tinker with their devices, at the end, anybody can root the device, knox indeed has nothing to do with it, just flags the fact that the device has been tampered, and no longer as secure as it was before, so, I think knox is a GOOD thing, and that anybody has achieved to return it to 0x0 once tripped, is excellent news, but that is my opinion
Sorry to say but it's unlikely you'll find a way to bypass Knox without tripping it. People much smarter than us have been trying ever since it came out.
In roms you can disable Knox & it will show 0x0 but it will still show tripped in download mode. SamFail doesn't trip Knox cause it's using an engineering bootloader that was leaked from Samsung. Since that engineering bootloader is not custom binary, it won't trip Knox. So until something similar is leaked for Exynos, root without trippin Knox is not possible. Well it's not root exactly, it's flashing custom recovery (like TWRP) is what trips Knox since it's custom binaries & you need TWRP to root.
G'day XDA Developers.
I would love to root my Samsung Galaxy S10 then install a custom recovery (TWRP) then flash a custom rom (LinageOS) how ever I trip Knox when ever I attempt to do these things. So I was wondering how do you go about disabling Knox?
After some Googeling I found this site https://www.progeeksblog.com/how-to-disable-samsung-knox/ How ever these methods require you to first root your phone but rooting triggers Knox.
So I am at a loss here I am running stock android rom until I figure out how to bypass Knox.

you cant completely block knox...
unlocking bl and flashing modified firmeare wil trip knox.. u cant reset knox flag either
Update: You can disable Knox by using Multidisabler: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ynos/g97xf-multi-disabler-encryption-t3919714

thats always been around lolol.. but regardless ur post was more about not tripping knox which ur knox is in fact tripped so "disabling" knox doesnt change anything really.. also, that zip doesnt really disable knox.. it disables verification, defex, force encryption etc.
Actually it says that it disables vault keeper which is supposed to replace Knox but any way yea your right my post was more about flashing anything trips knox so how are you supposed to get around that.

vaultkeeper is not to replace knox.. samsung bases all their security on knox.. vaultkeeper is in addition to knox..
there is no way around tripping knox.. the knox warranty bit is a physical fuse that gets blown when bl is unlocked and u flash a custom firmware and there is no way to reset it..
magiskhide can sometimes "fake" it but with safetynet improving if ur device is set to use hardware then there wont be any way around that either in the long run

I don't care about voiding warranty. What happens when I try and flash anything custom on the device Knox gets tripped and the phone refuses to boot. Thats what I am talking about trying to bypass.
I have Galaxy Tab Active3, which is locked to organization and it seems to have Knox enabled.
I want to Factory reset it so I can use it for private use.
I cannot get it into download mode, but I can get it in recovery mode. However, the Wipe data/factory reset option seems to be disabled.
Dialing *#0*# and *#*#88#*# from emergency dialer do not work either.
Any advice how to remove the Knox protection and factory reset the device, so I can set it up from scratch and remove the organization lock?

short answer: no, you cant reset knox back to 0x0.
The reason i didn't root was that i lose more functionality than i gain and there's no going back to knox 0x0 after that. I couldn't imagine my S3 Mini or S5 without root but my Note9 is perfect without root as many things that were available only with root in the past are included in the stock firmware or in Good Lock modules.

It's a scam. The Knox flag is indicating the state of an eFuse, which can't be changed nor reverted.

The ONLY way to get KNOX back to 0X0 is to replace the mainboard...
You can get a rooted phone to display KNOX as 0X0 but it is cosmetic only and won't fool any apps that don't work on a rooted phone.
If you haven't replaced the boot file, rooted or replaced the recovery then an app you have installed likely is malware that has tried or successfully gained root privileges...

Simple answer NO i made a mistake rooting my Tab S4 i'm never ever rooting unless i get a SnapDragon as they i heard you can root without trpping Knox! Also root is not needed as we have Youtube Vanced, Disconnect Pro! Package Disabler Pro, and #Mono oh forgot about Goodlock! Unless your planning on running Custom Roms it's simply not worth Rooting! As it's to much headache to root update reroot etc!

This^ I also removed a few preinstalled apps via ADB and granted one permission for Tasker via ADB as well. Root was mandatory in the past but not any more at all.
hello i have a problem with my s21 ultra, my s21 ultra was rooted and now i have the original software but knox 0x1 and samsung pass no longer work either and everytime cames popup access denied unauthorized changes were made to your phone.....how i can reset knox to 0x0 ?
You can not. If you are rooted you can make things work with spoofing. Otherwise, you can’t use Knox features. It is a efus, you would have to replace your entire motherboard to fix.
