Any idea what this means? Every where I've seen it mentioned, it says 0x1 when it's tripped. The full line is:
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0X0304)
I know I have voided my warranty - I confirmed with the KNOX app, which gave me the message saying I couldn't use it. This is the first time I've seen this particular code anywhere though. Samsung Galaxy S6 (SM-G9208).

I honestly don't know about the specific error code, but mine is 0x0500. I thought it should be 0x1, like it was on my S4.

I'm willing to bet that code is used to identify precisely what tripped knox.
My code is 0x0304 too and my finger print scanner stopped working . Using a510fd
I got that too
I was on noble s7e port then flashed stock nougat and got this code

I have root note 3 and flag knox varanty 0x1 now I have problem becous I found in my device some factory errors like crash nfc is not work for me. If I tray send in such a state of the phone warranty I lose it (service not respect devices who have knox 0x1).
And now my question is how to brick this device?

Doing this is obviously highly illegal as you are purposely destroying your product to fraudulently claim on your warranty. If you read around enough you will find out how to do it. I'm afraid I won't tell you how to do so.
edit: also this should have been posted here. But I'd expect this thread to be closed as it is technically breaking the rules.
Mod Edit
Seriously?
This site is called XDA DEVELOPERS
Do you really think that asking how to destroy something is part of that?

I just found out my knox is 0x1 now. I did not root or do anything to my s6. Updated to 5.1.1 . But there is one thing I am not sure if that will triggered knox.
I set up Find my mobile and on the reactivation lock. After that I tried to boot into recovery to do a factory reset. But it shows the reactivation lock and wasn't able to boot into recovery. So I boot into my phone and turn it off. I was able to factory reset my phone again. After that I tried looking at the info, it says KNOX is 0x1. I am sure before that was 0x0 as I have checked it. Will trying to boot into recovery while reactivation lock is on trigger the knox? Hope someone have information about this. And hope other don't make the same mistake as I do if you do not want to tripped your knox.
My phone wasnt rooted on 5.0.1 and knox was 0x1.. after installing 5.1.1, mine went also to 0x1 ???

This may actually be good news. If there's a bug in that process, then the Knox warranty bit effectively becomes void for warranty issues. Samsung itself tripping Knox would be fantastic.
Bring your S6 back to Samsung...

You do not loose your warranty by tripping Knox, not in the EU anyway

Any proof? Installing Root or Custom Rom can and will void warranty, as does tripping Knox which requires you to root, in and out of the EU and you will not beat Samsung if you try to contest it as it's set in stone. Modifications to the software or the hardware on a phone will void warranty whether you want to believe it or not.
As to the topic, yes, of course you did nothing to your phone, we believe you

I'm in the US so I can't speak from first-hand; but Europe has different laws about warranty void and manufacturer servicing. KNOX has no bearing on whether your phone is warranty void or not in EU, or so says everyone from Europe from the past 2 years since KNOX was released.
Also, 5.1.1 on T-Mobile S6 KNOX is still 0x000, so it might help to post which carrier update is flipping KNOX because it might not be a Samsung issue but more a carrier issue.

There are actually people that occupy these forums without modifying their phones... shocker. Not everyone pokes their phone internals.
I have brought my phone back to samsung service center. I mentioned to the technician that the KNOX is triggered. He says that doesn't matter. My phone still in FULL WARRANTY. I was having all sorts of problem with my phone like auto shut down, hang, vibrates all of a sudden( like apps are getting error) ..
When I bring it in, they said will try to flash the rom for me, but after 5min waiting, they came out and said it was a hardware problem. I think it's getting a motherboard replacement. Will need a couple days.
PS: BTW, I'm from Malaysia.
Also in reply to Jonathan H "As to the topic, yes, of course you did nothing to your phone, we believe you"
Yes, I haven't tried any root . Else there wasn't any point creating this topic for discussion.

Until S Pay even exists all this BS about S Pay and Knox is just that BS. If you have absolute proof that S pay is affected, then please show the evidence. Otherwise its all hypothetical gobbledygook. Blogs and stuff posted by individuals that have no real clue. The service doesn't even exist yet. Just like Tripping knox voiding warranties at least in the US. I have had my warranty fully accepted after rooting and tripping knox. Seems like there's more old wives tales stuff being stated on XDA now adays then the actual truth. My 2c......
I had my board changed btw, now my knox is 0x0 . It's a newer board manufactured in May too. It's all good now.
Hello. I want to root my phone, and I know that if I do it, the knox counter will be tripped, so no Samsung Pay and no warranty anymore. I don't care about that. There is no Samsung pay in my country and the warranty is already lost.
But what about My Knox and FRP lock? Do I loose that forever too? or only while my phone is rooted?
Thanks in advance!
My Knox relies on an intact Knox counter so rooting and tripping it will cause issues with that. Frp should still work I think.
You'll lose My Knox forever, but you can use FRP lock while not rooted.
will any of this Knox Void 0x1 will appear in recovery after rooting? or any indication that the device has been Root even after full unroot? thanks

Once you trip Knox there is no way to return to normal - thats it.

Download mode. Not recovery.
Use volume down instead of up.
The knox efuse is there, if it is tripped it can not be reset.
Do not use apps on the Play Store, Magisk can hide the knox 0x1 when in the OS, but the download mode flag will always be there and can never be reset.
This is recovery, not download mode. You have to press and hold Volume Down + Bixby + Power to enter Download mode.
And you wonder why we have locked bootloaders. People root then see that it voids warranty then they panic.

There will never be a way to reset it. It's a hardware thing not software.
When i go to download mode, I saw "Warranty Void : 1 (0x302)" or something like that (sorry, but I don't hold the phone right now) is this mean the Knox has tripped? i have tried searching on XDA, mostly just said 0x1 mean the Knox tripped, but i saw said 0x500 also mean the Knox tripped, it is just "Warranty Void: 1" need you to look when you want to know if the Knox tripped or the code (0x1, 0x302, 0x500) or the whole line "Warranty Void: 1 (0x302)".
The phone condition is on bootloop, since the owner said he never did something that should tripped the Knox, i little bit confuse. The System status also said Custom. I want to help fix his phone.
Thanks
If system status said Custom and it also says Warranty Void: 1, then yes, KNOX is tripped
Someone rooted / custom recovery'd it
lots of samsung users are looking forward that issue can figure out...
Samsung strongly attacks to who modifies samsung phones...

thanks for the info, i want to help him fix the phone, i've tried to flashed with some version of firmware but doesn't work, still bootloop, since the Knox already triggered then i'll try using custom recovery or ROM, can you show me some reference thread, since i can't enable OEM unlock and the owner said never do anything regarding system change, i have read some but enable OEM unlock is necessary for any customization.
