No its not possible. Unless you want to hard brick your phone. This same issue came up in another forum for someone trying to do the same thing on another device. DO NOT even attempt to do this

If you hard brick your phone/device it becomes an expensive paper weight, do not even attempt to do this

You would have to root it first. You should be able to remove most of it

I have only ever used PingPong and my KNOX WARRANTY VOID reads: 1 (0x0202)
Does this mean it was tripped somehow? Or am I mis-reading it?

Ping-Pong should not trip Knox, but you can try using this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bryancandi.knoxcheck&hl=en it should tell you right away if it's voided or still valid when you open the app, you can alternatively search for "Knox Status Samsung" to get the app

It's tripped. Not sure how. I've only installed PingPong and done built.prop edits.

Damn that's an unfortunate case as I've been doing exactly what you did and even flashing Zips with FlashFire but still not tripped
Really wish I knew what I did.
New Nougat Firmware N920TUVU4EQC6 is available here.
Caution: Samsung has added new security measures, dm-verity.

Is then Odin flashable?

Could you possibly add a mirror somewhere else? This one just cycles between 15 hours left and 5 days left continuously without actually downloading.... Afh really seems to be hit and miss nowadays... Thanks!

Did they lock the bootloader?

No, the boot loader isn't locked. I don't understand this dm-verity yet. But, the 3.1 dm-verity flashable will let you boot after flashing a ROM.

I actually had to flash before and after flashing ROM. Again, still playing with stock firmware, I can boot it knox free, bloat free, but no root yet.
Maybe this can help? https://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/how-to-root-note-5-android-7-0-nougat-t3574986 @rmarinella

Well that's a relief that they didn't lock the bootloader...
I know it's on 920C but maybe it can work
I have uploaded the first ROM based on official firmware here.

What does that mean? DM-VERIFY? Is there a way to strip that out?
Stock uprooted, ads blocked and Android Pay? We'll see.
Hmmm. Time to test!

Has anyone figured out the way to activate it internationally?

I don't want to trip KNOX too because I use Samsung Pay. [emoji23] Thanks for sharing though.

I watched the video and the guy has a custom recovery, so Knocks is definitely dripped...

No that wont your right, it will wipe your device however.
Flashing twrp to be able to flash the zip in your thread will as we know lol....they should see in the twrp the warning about knox however.
If not people should pay more attention lol
I tried it and its working KIND of. Every "normal" Bixby Voice command works. But when I try to use a "plugin" like WhatsApp it sais "Cant update third party plugin"
I assumed I could use Gpay after rooting but it doesn't work.
Anyone got it working

After rooting device, you sacrifice Knox related items like Samsung pay, secure folder etc
Gpay was supposed to work but requires some tweaks

Gpay is easy. Hide magisk all google stuff and google pay. Clear data. Then reboot. I used it twice today.

I dunno. Being able to use my phone to pay at legacy POS terminals is pretty awesome. Even if samsung pay doesn't get adopted as a mobile payment standard, MST still works fine.
Hell I'm working in Korea and I can pay bills, pay for all forms of transit, shop online, and send money from messages with Samsung pay. Even my Gear S3 being able to use MST is awesome, allowing me to make 10 purchases before the next time it pair back to my phone.
I'd hardly say it's overrated. It's a feature. Just like being rooted is a feature. It's utility depends on the user.
