Hope so for you, usualy not bro (custom status and flash counter raised), but maybe they won`t check and you`re lucky.

- Flash stock rom from sammobile via Odin
- Root using chainfires cf auto root
- Install and use triangle away
- Use permanent unroot option in SU app
- Do a factory reset
After that everything is back to stock.

[Q] Reseting Binary Counter (I9500)

What up guys, so was thinking of finally rooting my phone and flashing all these beautiful roms, but my problem is that we can not reset the binary counter using ...or thats what i know. All I know is that triangle away isn't yet supported for the I9500 model and so my question is..does anyone know if there is an actual way to reset it or if anyone knows when Chainfire will release the compatible update.
Thanks
Stay Cool.

No. there is no way till now to reset the binary counter
You can flash a pre rooted ROM via ODIn and it would not increase the counter and you would also have root

I guess you are wrong Buddy. You are talking about Device Status. We are talking about BInary Counter. There is No Way you can see the binary counter in I9500.

Well "dear" thats the status not the counter, the counter is when you install any not samsung recovery like cwm and install roms and stuff from there which will make the counter increase each time...

Due. You are confused. There are 2 things Device Status ( what you are talking about ) and Binary Counter ( what i am talking about )
What You are Saying that Is in regards to Device Status and Not Binary Counter,
Please Read through XDa to understand the Difference between the 2

Hey everyone.
I tried updating my CWM via odin, I did everything as normal.
However when the phone boots back up, It says ( in the top left hand corner )
RECOVERY BOOTING
set warranty bit : recovery
When I put it back into download mode and back into odin, it came up with the green 'pass'
I have tried taking out the battery, and then entering into bootloader, but the phone just resets and comes back up with the same message. There is no way for me to get into bootloader
I need help please guys

It's normal. The Knox bootloader only like its modules stock.
Whit a Customer Recovery we have : set warranty bit: recovery
Whit a new modem we have : set warranty bit: modem
Whit a new kernel we have : set warranty bit : kernel but in this case we can have at boot "Secure Fail: Kernel" in red and not reboot. May be.
This arrived to me on another device w/ Knox bootloader also.
SO what do I do mate?

Ah I hate when people aren't online and can't help.
I can get into download mode, but I can't even get into bootloader...
Did evrything the same as I have done 10x before, I am guessing it could be a dodgy file we flashed?
Have you tried flashing an older version of CWM ?
I am going to try now..

You need to flash KK with ODIN then let it boot.
You need to either root it using CF-Autoroot or CWM will. Both of these need to support KK.
Latest CF-Autoroot can be found here - http://download.chainfire.eu/352/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.zip

I was already rooted and running JB 4.3
When you say I need to flash KK with ODIN, is that KK ROM or a KK supported CWM ?

And I already tried downloading the latest CWM which is what got me into this mess in the first place

Grab the correct CWM for JB 4.3 and flash it, it'll fix you presuming you are running JB -- If not re-flash KK and run the latest CWM - then If if bootloops, take battery out place back in and boot into recovery, wipe cache and boot up into Android

Thanks again for everybody's help. What I did was just flashed the old CWM I was using prior to this new one.
Flashed it via ODIN as usual and it booted perfectly.

Just glad my phone is working again, thanks.

7. Enjoy

Your Warranty Will Be Void
Thanks To Dr.ketan
Does this method work for N7105? IF it does, please include the relevant recovery or if not you should change the title so that it reads for N7100 only.
This method will trip your Knox counter.
Therefore you loose your warranty!

Then please add on the OP that dis method wil trip knox trigger. Sum newbies might try this method on their new fones, without knowing.
So basically this method is for those people who dont care bout the warranty or those who hv completed their warranty.

trouble flashing ROM

Hi Guys
I suspect this might be quite simple but I seem to be missing something, I rooted using towelroot but when wanting to flash new RON ( Assassin )
when I boot into recovery the little android dude is lying down with a red warning triangle on top and it says ...no command...
I can select the file from SD but it doesn't start flashing.
I'm no wiz at this but did mange on my note 2 with the dittonote3 ROM
Have I missed a step somewhere ????

CWM didn't take the first time. Check you have the right version for your Model/OS - reflash it, then you're good to go :good:
