About Warranty Void / Knox Code on download mode - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

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.

[Q] KNOX 0x0304?

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

About Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505

Had this phone for over a year, and after various random crashes decided to try replacing the stock rom (updated) too a custom rom so it don't have all the junk samsung hardwired to the device.
What I found was knox and the bootloader are LOCKED.
Knox keep track of any warranty hack attempts for example if you go into recovery mode ya see on screen in white in small print Knox warranty = 0x0. if u hacked phone unsuccessfully it will read 0x1. so if u took phone back to samsung they would refuse to fix it.
So I tried towelroot and kingroot and both failed after various searches on net found out the bootloader is locked and you cannot install a custom rom with this locked or root the device.
My question, has any of you lot found a way around this without disturbing the knox warranty value. Or how to bypass the bootloader ???

Time to root... but a few questions first

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.

REset knox to 0x0

I have tried to change the firmware. and now i have the knox number 0x1. my note 20 is not rooted and i want to restore the knox number.
any one can give me a solution pls.
thnx
if it was ever rooted then there is no way to reset Knox so that it all works as before the root. There is firmware where the Knox status can be masked but it is purely cosmetic
Correct me if I'm wrong but for now when it's flagged as 0x1 it will never go back to 0x0.
You can trick it saying 0x0 probably but knock chip has a safety thing that breaks once rooted or bootloader unlocked. So knox is permantly disabled after
Only true way to reset Knox to 0x0 is motherboard.

Real Clarification on Samsung KNOX

I have read a lot about Samsung KNOX and how it is supposed to work, but the more I read the less I know how KNOX is tripped.
I understand what KNOX is, I know how it works and I know the supposed "reasons" it exists.
I also do know, that KNOX has changed a couple of times in the past years, which is perhaps the reason I find to much conflicting information on this topic.
So, since the A51 is quite a new phone, I want to know, how KNOX is tripped on the Galaxy A51.
Is unlocking the bootloader already enough?
Can you unlock the bootloader but flashing anything will make it trip?
What exactly is allowed with the newest KNOX and at which point does it exactly trip?
Can you not modify anything anymore, without tripping KNOX?
since Knox requires a separate login even after phone boots up i would guess it is not accessible with just a booted up and unlocked phone. last i read it created an additional "encrypted sandbox" on the already unlocked phone where data did not cross the sandbox barriers.

Unolocking the bootloader isn't enough to trip Knox, it trips once you flash a modified file.
Like TWRP, a ROM, etc that doesn't have Samsung's signature of official software.
