I didn't see a thread relating.
so my dilemma is i bought a galaxy tab 2 10.1 3g version off eBay unknowing it had the china rom installed... most of the Google apps arn't there and kies doesn't work.
i saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1686514
and was wondering if i can just do the first steps of istalling the ROM without having to root it as i dont want to void the warranty. and also is this ROM the international ROM??? many thanks in advance.
yes you can just do the first step without proceed to flashing custom recovery and rooting
however, you should know that firmware flashing via Odin will result to flash binary counter increased, so technically your device will lose warranty as well...
I doubt Samsung will honor your warranty
I have an american purchased p3113 and was informed by their online support for warranty it can only be honored if picked up from an address in the country of purchase. You could log in to the samsung support site to verify your warranty situation if it concerns you.
why's it void my warranty

flash binary counter is what samsung use as mechanism to detect flashing firmwares without using official tools provided by samsung ota or via samsung kies... also as their alibi not to be held responsible if consumer modified/upgrading without official tools...
ok, here's a good thing, i've heard & read from users experience in forums, blogs & my own friends have their samsung devices sent to back to samsung centers & got their warranty claims granted even with rooted or flash binary counter increased... more about luck i guess... :fingers-crossed:
im guessing theres no way around it? thats definately lucky, probably comes down to if its hardware problem or program problem to whether or not they need to check it.
as for now for our device, i can only say there is no other way
Thats the worst

Dude...your knox warranty is ok.It should be 0x1 if is voided.
Do not root at this time.it will void your warranty.Wait for some knox friendly root method.Anyway...my i9505 had knox status 0x1 and i had it replaced in warranty (by Orange Romania) for a faulty display.

well i see that i am not voided knox cause i get before upgraded device to official state again. then its no problem.
the thing is i only wanted warn the rest before they upgrade to 4.3
cause i think when you upgrade with a device wich have custom state you will maybe receive a knox waranty void 0×1 after the upgrade.

Its true what hes says ---> if you care Root dont Flash 4.3 Firmware!!!
I tested it.
If you root with 4.3 you got mass "Knox alert messages" in android !!!!! and you void Knox warranty to 0x1 in bootloader!!!!
The other thing you can not use anymore Heimdall or Odin(dont support 4.3 firmwares!!!!!) to flash anything on your phone also kies 2.6 you can not use anymore ..............have to update to 3.2 .... <--- everything tested!!
After i recognized theres nothing to do on this "super 4.3 firmware" i tried in terminal with abd shell dd commands to downgrade the Bootloader to go back 4.2.2 and what is the result ^^ -->
Phone is now hardbricked got only blackscreen nothing boots up !!! and i am using now a Nokia 3710 Fold till 30.12.2013 then i get rechanged my I9506 by a new one from servicecenter....
Again if you need root and dont want "knox warranty void" in your Bootloader STAY ON 4.2.2 !!!

Sure i can help you but you want really this 4.3 with "knox warranty void" in Bootloader ??
With odin and heimdall you cant flash 4.3 ... not supported!!
So if you dont care i can advice you how you update to 4.3 just do a post with text in it "yes help me please"
And dont blame if you want go back to 4.2.2 after updated to 4.3 .... cause its not possible by normal methods ... only with JTAG i think you can downgrade to 4.2.2 !!!

hello, have you found a solution to this? if you have please provide it, i got the same atm. Thanks
While on 4.2.2, try to flash in Odin only following 3 parts: boot (don't mess with aboot!!), cache, system. Don't flash any other parts.
There parts are enough to fully upgrade to android 4.3.
It's better to avoid flashing modem from 4.3 because it has KNOX enabled bootloader image inside and may update it at any time by itself.
Probably, you won't be able to boot android with stock boot.img because of LKM authentication, but you may try. It won't brick your device. If you won't flash any other (except these 3) parts, then you always can boot into download mode and flash 4.2.2 parts ad still don't have any KNOX mentions in download mode.
Most likely, you will need custom kernel (boot.img) in order to continue to use old bootloader with android 4.3.

Since i have no clue about what you mean by only flash three parts, i got one file and one file only, its a .md5. ho do i just flash some parts of it if even possible? and im not even sure i should flash that file since it's 4.3.
i would like to be pointed in the direction of a step to step help thingy, like i require this, and when i got it, do this. Thanks
I flashed 4.3 and rooted to get my secmms out then flashed 4.3 again via Odin and no problems. Well my knox warranty is void but I don't give a damn. Des will find something for that.

There are users here in Canada with Note 3's that have "Custom" in "Current Bianary" and "System Status".
This information has not been posted, I have NO idea why. I am guessing these people could care less about us (the people still in the dark).
I have only just obtained a Note 3 (Week ago) and I am trying to figure this stuff out.
We have a special Note 3 in our N900W8's. Apparently we can:
- Downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.3 via Odin 3.09 without tripping Knox (not sure if this requires the Mexican bootloader first or if we can do it with our Canadian bootloaders)
- Keep Knox at 0x0 with Custom Everything else. From what I see, our bootloaders are unlocked allowing us to flash our phones in Odin with multiple files (not 1 file mode as this contains a bootloader) as long as we dont include the bootloader (theory from what I have seen, and read a few times, no confirmation).
However I can not get an answer out of anyone who knows anything. I cannot just blindly flash and see if Knox is tripped, I'll only get one shot. Not worth it IMO.
Can anyone chime in on this? Is it acceptable to call members out? I know exactly who the 2 people are that have Custom everything and Knox at 0x0. 2 Torontonians, younger guys, doesn't seem like they want to talk though. Can I call them in here, is that acceptable behavior? Never done that before. Hehe.
I can confirm. I used this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2614772
I have a Rogers Note 3 with CWM installed and rooted with Knox at 0x0. My friend just updated his Note 3 to kit Kat (through kies) and rooted using cf-autoroot and his knox is 0x0. I haven't tried downgrading so I cannot comment on that.
I am planning to flash the official Rogers rom shortly and then root (not sure about installing a custom recovery yet) I will report back when completed.
I PM'd you but yeah, I'm Knox 0x0 on X-Note 12 right now. Sorry about that, wasn't home.

Okay here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tks73wZH3qg&list=UU2FLZg9YNAr4YAd0VEDDKGQ
You have to pause to see it at the beginning, and in hindsight, I probably have should of started in CWM, then booted into recovery, but whatever.
Set it to HD and pause it at the beginning, you can see my Knox 0x0. Then watch the video and I boot into the ROM, then back into CWM, all in one cut.

Same here
Knox 0x0 here, after a few good reasons to trip it
Android newcomer here.
I have a Bell Canada SM-N900W8, and it came with 4.3. Rooted 4.3 with Kingo (noob style) and that was just perfect to start out. Then the OTA came out. I unrooted the device, reseted with Kies 3 update to 4.4.2 and then Kingo wasn't working anymore of course.
At that point I decided I didn't care about tripping knox and installed TWRP to start trying roms... Tried like 2-3 1+gb complete packed roms (bootloops, probably cauz im a noob) then I wiped from TWRP, restored my OTA backup, flashed with CF-Auto-Root international version (canadian is another bootloop) and then flashed a CivZ kernel +stock-modification rom that I now simply keep clean with Titanium Backup and some apps y'all know about.
Some more info :
My version is VLUCNB7
My current kernel [email protected]
My current SE state is Permissive
Again, Knox is 0x0. Even after bootloops of custom crap that was crashing and I'm custom-rom, custom-kernel.
Two facts to finish that off
1) That's weird
2) I'm a lucky *****
Have a great day
What if I want to use a custom 4.3 ROM (just to get BT Tethering) without tripping KNOX?
The guides seems to push you to install the 4.4 ROMs.
I have the Bell version of N900W8.
Started at MI5, rooted de la vega, then wanted to upgrade to 4.4.2.
Used polishpats way of upgrading with the leaked 4.4.2, flashed all the AP,CSC,CP,PIT, then installed TWRP and autorooted, both with Odin 3.09 - no knox trip
Wanted to try X-note, installed it using TWRP, and no knox trip
Upgraded the kernel using TWRP, no knox trip
Did not like X-note, wanted to go back to 4.4.2, and reflashed it - no knox trip
Downgraded back to 4.3, no knox trip
upgraded to offical 4.4.2, no knox trip
rooted via chainfire and odin - no knox trip
now sitting at rooted 4.4.2 with 0x0 still
Are you basically saying Bell's N900W8 is KNOX untripable?
I'm on MJ4 (UDLV Rooted) with remaining with MJ1 Bootloader
Since I don't want a KITKAT rom, can I just install a custom recovery (TWRP) without doing all that Mexican instruction stuff?
I really just want a 4.3 ROM with BT Tethering.

Hello,
My friend has just the same phone as me, he bought it a few weeks before me, and he used his own techniques and got 0x1 knox tripped, so I just can't warn you enough : not all N900W8 are "untrippable"
...but...I didn't trip mine and I'm not alone.
Without more information you can't just say canadian w8's are untrippable, cauz they are.
Well, are older the better?
I got mine the first week it came out.

Will look into this. I am positive all N900W8's are the same.
Surely your friend missed something or did something improperly to trip Knox.
Taking this all in. Thanks for the posts guys!

in your opinion, do you have to go thru installing KITKAT rom from Mexico if you just want to install another 4.3 ROM that has BT Tethering without tripping KNOX?

I am not sure... this also pains me as I want to try CF-auto Root right now on 4.4.2 Rogers.
From my knowledge of technology, I dont think it will. Not positive though. I am hoping you do not need to flash this.
I will test for us. Here is hoping I wont lose my warranty. Will report back.

Flashed CF-Auto-Root, flashed TWRP 2.6.3.0, 0x0 still!
Now for the info on my phone.
I have done as follows.
Phone came with 4.3 stock --> Root De La Vega --> Flashed 4.4.2 Stock (Rogers) with Odin 3.09 --> CF Auto-Root --> TWRP 2.6.3.0 = Rooted 4.4.2 with TWRP 2.6.3.0 Recovery and Knox @ 0x0.
I'm not stopping here. Will flash everything DrawntoLife has.
Appreciated my man. Thanks again! Easy to Follow Step By Step Tutorial **WILL** be written tonight after I am done at a LAN I am already late for figuring this out.
Talk soon everyone! Happy flashing!
did you consider extracting the ODIN package and leave out the Bootloader?
Remember we had to do that upgrading from MJ1 to MJ4. Reportedly, it was the newer bootloaders that trip KNOX.

When I updated to 4.4.2? I did, but I was not sure if that would trip Knox so I left it in the package.
It's irrelevant now anyway, the bootloader in 4.4.2 Rogers is the one I am on now and allowing me to do all this still.
I suggest you update to it. Use the package labeled "N900W8VLUCNB7_N900W8OYACNB7_RWC". That is 4.4.2 for a Rogers Note 3.
I can safely assume you can flash this at any point and be fine. Even if you are already on a hacked 4.4.2 or something. There would be no issue updating the bootloader to the same version, would just overwrite it.
Hello Community!!
I have owned many androids over the years, and have recently got an S6, hoping to dive back into the game of rooting, modding and messing around until my phones works the way i want it to. There are MANY things that really Piss me off about my T-MObile variant of the S6, including the horrible battery life, bloatware, and lack of personality. I Really would love to root my device, but KNOX. OMG what is this?! If i Root, no Samsung pay? What other downsides are there to rooting? But recently, my phone installed "ANdroid Pay" SO I am thinking, I should just root, forget Samsung pay and just use Google pay or whatever they call it.
As you guys can tell from my sig, I have been very inactive on these forums. I am hoping someone can give me some advice here---
Thanks So much

There are pros and cons to root.
The first pro is limitless customizations and personalizations.
The first con is OTA updates get disabled.
Another pro is you are able to dramatically improve battery and overall performance using various apps.
Another con is your warranty will be void, assuming you tripped KNOX.
If you trip KNOX, Samsung Pay no longer works; if you have root (even without touching KNOX) Android Pay does not work.
I obtained root just to prove to myself it could be done.
Since then there have been dramatic improvements with speed and battery life.
Package Disabler Pro can freeze a lot of the bloatware without root: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpro&hl=en
Hi,
It's a highly personal decision. I myself for the first time am holding on rooting - I was the one who made the most famous Xoom rooting tool and also S4 Linux Root Script, so that tells a lot. The thing is, meanwhile my device is satisfying my needs, and I'm really curious about Samsung Pay, as it has a way wider support than Android Pay and other systems.
The best thing about rooting in my opinion was the endless system customization - specially after Xposed was released. The way better data management I had, better system control and some exclusive apps that require root or works better with root. If you are really pissed about Samsung TouchWiz apps and system "features", rooting would be a nice idea. Just keep in mind that after rooting Knox will be tripped and there's no turning back with Knox. Depending on your country, Knox trip also means warranty void, because once rooted you can unroot and make it looks like nothing happened.
Just adding what was already said, but Android Pay doesn't work with root.
All the best,
~Lord

Rooting doesn't allways mean tripped knox. I have my G920F rooted and knox intact. This can be done even after updrade to 5.1.1 stok firmware.
An android phone for me is worthless without root permissions. I need it for:
adaway adds
iptables (firewall)
better battery life (debloat)
titanium backup

Just install de 5.0.2 engineering bootloader via ODIN. Then instal TRWP via ODIN.
After this two steps you can flash whatever you want via TRWP.
Edit: with the 5.0.2 bootloader you will loose fingerprint scanner, the rest works great, at least with the custom rom I am using.

Keep in mind this engineering bootloader does not work with all variants. For example there is no Eng Bootloader for the Canadian phones.
Thank you both. I have the international SM-G920F (technically it's the dual Sim version, SM-G920FD, (from United Arab Emirates)).
So, to confirm, would the eng boot loader still work on my device variant, and allow root without tripping KNOX?

I have the single sim version of the G920F, so I don't know if it will work with the dual sim.
I don't think that it will strip you knox...
... and I think that if your phone doesn't work with this bootloader, you can just flash the correct one and make it work again.
But these are just guesses... you decide if you want to take the risk.
Good luck.

Thanks. I did some additional research, thanks to your advice about eng boot loader, and seems like it will work ☺

Hi,
I wouldn't risk that "you can just flash the correct one and make it work again". If you know how a bootloader work, if it gets broken there is no way to get to Download Mode and flash a new firmware/bootloader.
For information sake, a bootloader is a piece of software that is the first thing loaded when you boot your device, it comes before anything, be it kernel, be it recovery or anything else, that means, if you have a broken bootloader, the moment you try to boot your device up, it will try loading BL and it will fail, so it will shut down back again. I've had a broken BL once before on S4, the only way to recover was a direct flash of software in system chip using a tool called JTAG.
So, all I can say to users who still didn't get it: beware with this. It seems that many people are getting successful results, but it's an extremely risk procedure, make sure you read every single instruction and follow it, the possibility of a hard brick is high.
Even still, it's a great find, thanks for sharing with me, I didn't know of this until early today .
All the best,
~Lord
I wonder whether Samsung pay will work again after reflash stock rom after root? Is it like knox, once rooted you will never have it no mater what you do including going back to pure stock?

Depending on your country, Knox trip also means warranty void, because once rooted you can unroot and make it looks like nothing happened.

Did you mean, once rooted we can unroot and install the stock firmware and hence tripped Knox will be restored as well?
Or the unrooting will only help to restore the stock but the knox will continue to remain tripped. I would like to know this as I am considering purchasing S6. The last samsung phone I owned was S2 and used that for 3 full years with out any problems.
Thanks.

Once Knox is tripped its tripped but, yes you can flash original firmware and as long as you factory reset it, it will be unrooted and ready for official updates.

Thanks. But can you be a bit more specific of if the unrooting, flashing stock, and factory resting will finally untrip the tripped Knox as well? My question in the event I need to take this back to a service center to claim warranty for whatever reason, is there any way for them to know that I have voided warranty if I unroot, flash back the stock and factory reset?

Once tripped there is no going back. Voided warranty depends on laws of your country and your retailers policy.

YOU CAN NOT UNTRIP KNOX, you can reflash your firmware from Sammobile, http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G920F/
use odin and then after you flash, go into recovery or use system settings and conduct a factory reset. It will say Official in the status but, since they will reflash your rom anyways, they will see the knox trip.
It depends on where you purschased your device whether or not they will warranty it with Knox tripped.
Honestly, anyone who roots should understand this information before hand. You should always know how to return to stock unroot.

After rooting my 5.1.1 without tripping Knox, with the 5.0.2 engineering bootloader (as as described a few posts ago) I have flashed a stok rom with odin and then everything went back as it was before the rooting procedure.
1. I was on stok oficial rom with oficial bootloader.
2. I lost root.
3. Knox was still intact: 0.
4. Fingerprint scanner and MyKnox worked again.
So: after upgrade to 5.1.1, rooting with the 5.0.2 engineering bootloader seems to be safe and also easy to bo back to stock... at least for my model (G920F)
Hi everyone !
For noob user like me : root S7 = risk to no more working knox samsung app : mainly samsung pass / secure folder. Sad i've didn't seen that before rooting -_-
For others : I prefer to open a new thread, because i've read many post about knox problem or only pass or only secure folder after root... people saying yes, no, work, don't work, update, offical stock rom, snapdragon, magisk, or nothing :/
I got a S7 G930F from France (exynos?), now model version show g930fxx4esc5, i've try root, pass, [...] and no more knox app.
- I've seen index-samsung-galaxy-s7 thread, put oem unlock, followed CF-Auto Root link http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/
> alert : KNOX WARRANTY : If you have a KNOX-enabled device, using CF-Auto-Root will trip the KNOX WARRANTY VOID status ! (but didnt know what it mean XD)
> site didn't looked noob friendly to me so i looked for another one......

> So i took files on this page, without using more my brain -_- (didn't seen page is dated 2016... and dunno if the auto root file must be a strict model version...)
- odin said pass ! Samsung pass and secure folder dont work... T-T (i've noted my model version g930fxx4esc5 dunno if it was same before)
> with the message error I got the bad idea to remove oem unlock (perhaps it was bugging the app XD)
- then.... verification problem at boot... reinitialise dont work, useless, wipe...
> So i put my brain finally on, xda, i tried to get back official stock rom version g930fxx4esc5
- from samfirm depreciated thread i've found this site : https://updato.com/firmware-archive...=XEF,BOG,FTM,SFR&v=Oreo(Android+8.0.0)&rpp=15
- update all 4 files in ODIN BL / AP / CP / CSC, phone work but knox is 0x0500 and still no Spass no Secured Folder. Here i am :/
Général questions :
1- These knox problems are only for s7 exynos ?
2- Root and samsung pass never work ? still have someone who say yes
3- Rooted and now unrouted and samsung pass don't work ? still someone who say yes
4- unrooted + full wipe + stock rom and samsung pass don't work ? must i have to try several official rom perhaps ? trying will fail my knox more ? still someone who say an official rom will work
5- Other root method could have work with knox ? but too late if already rooted ?
For me, S7 exynos, R16NW.G930FXXS4ESC5, knox 0x0500 :
6- How did i mistake ? Like i'm not in knox 0x1 but 0x0500 do i have a try ? or if i try i'll have 0x1 and no more try ?
7- Can i have back knox related apps or almost same apps (mainly samsung pass and secure folder) ?
8- Can i go back to initial stock rom ? a real samsung official rom ?
9- Can i try again following from http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ then this link https://desktop.firmware.mobi/ look for G930F, take the R16NW.G930FXXS4ESC5 version who has the same than my phone ?
10- Must i follow post like : https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/samsung-pay-knox-warranty-void-t3549449 or it will be worst hard to get back to normallity ?
11- What is Magisk ? before rooting ? after rooting ? for rooting ? Can i try magisk solution ? or it will be worst hard to get back to normallity
12- On french support samsung-forum just say go in samsung store they got tool to repair with a real official rom for 40€ . i dont believe.
edited : 13- Like that can i still have samsung android updates ?
If no solution to get back samsung pass and secure folder, i'll re try to root phone at least i'll have that, even if knox go to 0x1 it won't be worst ? others problem with app on a rooted phone ?

what you mean by covered ? i bought it since more than 2 years, no more warranty:/
so i'll have to pay, and pay for what ? they will change mother board and ask me to pay ? they will install an official rom who work ?
edit : just phone them, i don't have to flash my phone, i have to go in a store they will check my phone, and see what they can do and tell me the price for it.
i prefer to see what people on xda have to say before

thanks for your comment of 2-3 lines to answer 12 questions, i've listened to you :
"In europe rooting your phone and knox 0x1 is not hardware damage and will be covered by samsung" >> covered by samsung so i call them, they said no.
"You dont need to call them." >> i dont need to call them ok so dont say me it will be covered by samsung
"If you rooted once you can never use samsung pass , secure folder samsung pay again. For updates just flash back to stock" >> answer to ask 7 and 8
Now i dont won't to be unfriendly with you but i don't think you are alone on this forum, and i don't think you answered to the other questions.
I would like to know more about this, and why some people dont say the same things on many topics, btw it could greatly help other users to not make the same mistake than me just thinking it will be ok for them.
thanks

well ok... for me its total fail according to only you (but like i said other say no) but then i answer to you, again..
if i made a long post with questions instead of just, "can i resolve my problem" its cause i think xda is a place where people can learn things with "clever" peoples.
1 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but rooting s7 snapdragon would have been the same ? you didn't answer to this i think
2 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but is there someone who have been able to root s7 and to still use samsung pass or secure folder ? you won't answer to this cause it's a no for you. but others ?
3 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but some people said unrooted flash worked ? you won't answer to this cause it's a no for you. but others ?
4 - same
5 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but does other root methods could have work ? you didn't answer to this i think...
6 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but so i havn't mistake my root ? all methods would have get me to the same result ? what's the difference between 0x1 and 0x0500 ? you didn't answer to this i think
7 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but there is no other app who work like secure folder ? you didn't answer to this i think
8 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, even with a real samsung rom in a samsung center so.
9 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, then no need to test to flash again
10 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, so if in futur there is a trick, i won't try cause you said me no.
11 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, and thanks to explained me magisk, it was really helpfull. But this one is for me, i can find info on magisk on the forum somewhere else.
12 - you just say me no, so like the french forum for me :/
For exemple here, a thread where you have post, it seems to be reasonnable to try to make S health work on a rooted phone
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...riped-knox-t3921869/post79346431#post79346431
ou answer : Flash twrp then connect to pc with adb and pull build.prop .
Then edit ro.config.tima="1" to "0"
After that push the edited buildprop back to your device and flash original recovery back
so you say me no, fail is fail, but now i can try to make S health work.

I have no idea what youre talking about. Anyway , my other thread refers to the use of shealth without root as the op wanted to do it with no root acces,compared to yours with root. And to your thread your thread is complete bull**** since its unclear to read and understand your questions. So do me a favor and elaborate your questions next time.
Thanks
Ok thanks bye !
Back to my first "elaborate" post then
"elaborate", but i accord it certainly unclear (cause i'm not a pro english, and not a dev or a pro root user )
so here is a simplified version since i've understood more thingies (on this forum not on this thread)
Général questions :
1- Knox 0x1 problems are only for S7 exynos ?
2-3-4- Samsung Pass, Samsung Pay, Secure Folder, Health, etc.. can't never work on rooted / no-more rooted / wiped stock rom phone cause of knox ?
5- Other root method could have work without breaking knox ?
For me, S7 exynos, R16NW.G930FXXS4ESC5, knox 0x0500 :
6- Like i'm not in knox 0x1 but 0x0500 do i have a try ?
7- Can i have back knox related apps editing something ? or almost same knox-apps (mainly secured folder) ?
8- If it's usefull, can i go back to initial stock rom ? A real samsung official install from myself or samsung center ?

Hellooo
1. No, the KNOX Warranty Void stuff is already an "issue" ever since the Samsung Galaxy S4 came out. And ever since that, every new Samsung Device launches with that Knox counter. BTW, the KNOX Counter is an one-time programmable chip that once it detects any sort of modifications to the Device (Root, Custom Recovery like TWRP etc.) sets the counter from 0x0 to either 0x1 or 0x500.
2. That's right, All of Samsung's Security / Pay apps immediately will stop working once the Device was rooted.
3. See Answer 2 xD Since the KNOX Counter is more like a Hardware-based thing, it won't change even after a complete Stock ROM flash process.
4. Whatever those guys say, don't believe them. See Answer 3. xD
5. There are pretty much no methods to root the Device without screwing up with KNOX. The Samsung S6 / S6 Edge once had such a way of rooting tho where you were able to root while still having the KNOX at 0x0, but only on the Lollipop firmware though.
6. "Triggering" the KNOX Counter, whether it shows 0x1 or 0x500 is a one-time thing, like voiding the Warranty with rooting countless times won't make the Counter go crazy between 0x1 and 0x500 xD
7. Maybe. You'd be better to look for alternatives though, but maybe after a while tho some Dev might be able to patch it to work with rooted / Knox 0x1 Devices.
8. Yes sure. Flashing the for the Device latest available Stock ROM will return the Device to factory condition... Except the KNOX thingy tho xD
11. Magisk is like SuperSU a tool/program/software whatever you wanna name it, a Program to gain root access.
12. Nice joke, damn. xD I once asked at a Samsung Store to repair the Dead Motherboard of the S7 from my Mom, they said it'll be between 200-300€ JUST FOR THE MOBO, means you'll also have to consider the actual repair costs and so on. 40€ is a joke.
13. See 8. Yes, after returning to full stock you should still get OTA Updates.

hi !
Yes thanks a lot for these answers
Its should be in capitals red letters thtat knox broken = samsung app broken in notices threads :/
Even if rooting look easy, noob people like me should take really care before, wost that i did it mainly for fun testing
Finally i got a rooted phone but not really usefull for me, and no more secure folder who was really usefull for me XD
If someone got a method to get an app like secure folder (who emulate another system, don't care security) he is welcome
thanks again Fatal
