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

I have a galaxy s6 bought from malaysia and it was region locked. I initially thought it will be easy to unlock but I couldnt unlock it so I took it to local mobile service center. There they unlocked the phone. I dont know how they unlocked it but I think he used some box like octoplus. When I recieved the phone from him it was rooted and the knox counter was tripped.
I know I have voided the warranty but thats fine. Now I dont recieve any updates from Samsung. I want to flash the original samsung firmware back and I have the following clarification before doing it by myself.
1. If I flash the original samsung firmware using smart switch or odin will the phone be unrooted and will I start receiving updates
2. Currently in my smart manager-> device security it says security threat found and I get the notification "unauthorized action detected restart your device to undo any unauthorized changes". Will this error message go off and will the device threat go off.
3. Will installing My knox cause any problem or I should avoid installing it ?
4. Currently "In find my mobile" remote controls is not getting enabled. Will the find my mobile feature start working after flashing the official firmware.
Thanks in advance

if you have tripped knox to 1 then the warranty is voided. you can't unvoid it. furthermore, malaysian SGS6 are G920F, which is supposed to be international unlocked versions. where did you buy this in malaysia? i hope it's not low yat or some shady place.
Yes its G920F. All Samsung galaxy phones are region locked irrespective of where its bought. I dint buy in low yat. But I just curious why you are skeptical about low yat ?. Is low yat not a good place to buy ?
I know I have voided the warranty but I want to know the answer to the above questions

you should try installing the official firmware through smart switch first. then slowly work on the rest. use emergency firmware initilization.
2. i'm not sure.
low yat can sell you at a cheap price, but i have had friends who had been conned of several things there before.
I am sure many would have tripped Knox and flashed stock firmware and you must be having answers to my clarification. Can anyone help me by answering my questions

bro, i suggest you try installing Smart Switch on your PC, then click more at the top right hand corner, click emergency firmware initialization > Device initialization > Key in SM-G920F > key in your Serial number > click okay (make sure to back up first) then install the latest firmware. That should unroot your phone. The rest of the questions you asked, may be fixed after you unroot your phone
Ok. Thanks zincsnow. I will try it.

zincsnow have you tripped the knox. if yes and if you are on stock firmware back. What does the device security under smart manager say ?

alright then. i have tripped knox but i haven't gone back to stock.
Bro, please follow this link to unroot your galaxy S6 and bring it back to stock.
you'll be able to update your device normally after that.
I have updated my device using smart switch now everything works fine. I didn't try installing my Knox because I don't need 2 environments one for work and personal. Thanks all especially zincsnow
I was surprised about one thing. I was expecting that once the installation is completed my phone will be in a new state but it had all my datas and settings intact nothing was changed, not sure if restore had run.

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.

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,

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?

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.

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)
WARNING THIS IS A WIP AND SO FAR NO ONE HAS CONFIRMED THIS WORKING
Samsung pay and Knox is working after Rooting.
How is this possible?
well,
The loophole here is both Samsung pay and Knox apps check the kernel for knox status.
Developer of the Superman ROM and Superstock kernel @Tkkg1994 has modified his kernel to show knox status as 0x0 to Samsung Pay and Knox apps.
Steps to use Samsung Pay and Knox in your phone
Method 1:
1. Flash the latest Nougat BL, CP and CSC of your home country with odin.(only if ur country has samsung pay working. If not use files from the spay countries)
2. Flash TWRP
3. Download version 2.0 of Superman ROM. (Its not working in newer version I dont know why )
4. In aroma choose the included (ii) Superstock Kernel (ii)Samsung Pay (iii) Root with SuperSu.
(keep settings as close to stock as possible)
5. Install CSC of your country (The csc of a country which has samsung pay in it. Use korean CSC if just want to test)
6. Reboot. It takes time for setting up wait for 5-7 mins
7. Download the Latest version of samsung pay app and install it. (Download it now itself from playstore and save it somewhere)
8. Open Spay give it internet access. Sign in to ur samsung account from here and setup the app at same time.
(Some users are getting error connecting to server try again later message. So login to ur samsung account from the app. That way it wont show you error message)
9. Add your Card and make a purchase
Note: For this to work the bl,cp,csc must be of official spay released countries.. If you have installed only bl and csc or only csc it might not work..
So spoof ur existence properly into the country Make the app believe that you are from Korea/spain/US or any other spay country
Method 2:
This is from another user who got both Samsung Pay and Knox to work @NilayNoob
0. Install Stock Nougat rom (Use the firmware from a country where samsung pay is working)
1. Install TWRP.
3. Install latest superstock kernel. That's a must.
4. Root with supersu
5. Reboot
6. Install Samsung pay and my knox to get them working
Check out the screenshots.
Cheers.

Sorry man that I cant do I am from India. And its not released here yet. I flashed korean csc along with the ROM to test this. So Im afraid someone from the samsung pay working countries have to confirm the actual purchase and provide u the receipt..
But I can confirm that you can add the card into the app successfully.. all the aspects of the app are working flawlessly. Whatever I click gets opened..
If the app wasnt working it wouldnt have even go past the setup page as it successfully did in the other custom Roms that I tried. Displaying the message "Your device has been modified in an unauthorised way. Please call our customer care service"
This is interesting. Can anyone else confirm?
Well I confirm that the app successfully does everything in my knox flagged rooted phone running superman v2.0 Rom.
Changing csc doesnt affect the functionality of the app. In few months samsung pay is gonna be released in India, so they pushed samsung pay app officially along with the nougat firmware. Opening it says that they will be releasing it soon..
Flashed many roms and other roms doesnt even open/load the app
All Im saying is that, "The app in that particular ROM doesnt bother checking your knox status" and works flawlessly. I dont know what kind of tweaks made this change to the system and the app. The developers only has the idea to get to end of it. I am just a flash junkie.
Im happy that It works in my phone and can successfully use it when samsung pay is released in my country
Its up to u guys to believe me or not.
I gave u the proof. If u are tempted give it a try.
If u are not ignore it.
Anyway I got what I wanted from this Rom.
Cheers everyone..
I have my university exams in 14hrs. let me go and prepare till then
I used Samsung Pay in India to pay for almost everything. But the thing is you wont be able to register your Indian Bank's Credit card on Samsung Pay. If you have access to any US based credit card then give it a try. It's fun to look at the faces of clueless merchants trying to figure out how I paid with a mobile device. Btw nice find I might try to root now but need more confirmation of it working in stores/while paying.
EDIT: wait you said you can add a card, then just try to pay with it coz it will work on any credit card machines out there (even the some of the smaller ones).

It shows only korean banks name( since im using korean csc)
If I install Indian csc it say we will be releasing it soon in your country..
It doesnt support my bank
i also notice samsung pay opened up on official nougat with tripped knox. I can not use because i was on btu and Iam in usa. my credit card does not support it.
May be someone can try with DBT csc. Or even US AT&T csc, which I think is available for rooted phones?

Try samsung pay when your country has s pay released
I am sorry for being dumb by post this questions, I want to root my S7 so i can install costume rooms.
My question is; does rooting can affect my device and make problems?
What is this whole thing about the Samsung Knox?
What is the simple way to flash rom white/out root?
If i want to restore my phone to the stock, it is possible to do it?
And what about the warranty is the warranty will become void?
Thanks in advanced.

I think about root
U will get a lot of articale on google about
advantage of root and disadvantages of root
About knox
If you root your device, you trip the Knox Warranty bit. Knox services do not run on devices that have tripped the Warranty bit, because this indicates a device is rooted and flashed with an unofficial Android build
But u can flash custom rom without root but when u will flash any custom recovery your will warranty not be valid
And i don't about
Is there any way to revert your warranty of u have triggered knox
But u can easily come to your stock rom
With root or without root

You must use Odin to flash twrp recovery, just watch on YouTube there are many useful videos about it. This is how you root your phone.
Yes it is possible to go back on stock Samsung rom by flashing stock rom from sammobile or updato site. Everything will be as it was before root except your Knox is void 0x1 and u cant use Samsung Pay ect.

Thanks for helping me out, one last thing; i have all my images on the samsung cloud and i found this thing: The following Knox services are affected if a Warranty bit is tripped.
Knox Platform for Enterprise
Existing Workspace's are permanently locked and the data is no longer accessible.
New Workspace's can't be created.
Knox Cloud Services
All Knox Cloud services stop working because they rely on a Knox license key to operate – For example, Knox Mobile Enrollment, Knox Configure, and Knox Manage.
Other Secure Samsung services
Samsung E-FOTA stops working.
Unique Knox security features stop working, such as Real Time Kernel Protection (RKP) , or Device Attestation.
Other Samsung Services that require Knox stop working – for example, Samsung Pay and Secure Folder.
If i will root my S7 all photos will be locked or removed?
