hi i had kies updates and OTA problem cuz counter was on 5
so i rooted it and used triangle away, so its showed 0
then hard reset
after boot up, update went itself over wifi to latest DBT
when i go to settings it shows selinux status enforcing, before i had permissive i think
after update i lost root, suuser app is still there, cant remove, so i disabled it
question is whats selinux status enforcing ? status is
strange thing is kies still says firmware dosent support kies updates, but in phone ota going throug, says i got latest..
should i flash latest firmvare DBT over it again? via odin?
to do so i would have to root it and reset triangle away again? as counter will go up and no updates again?
thank you

Hello guys,
I rooted my stock s4 using Odin and CF-Autoroot. Everything went fine.
After this, i flashed the Official Status Mod and reseted the flash counter with Triangle Away 3.0.1.
My Flash counter is 0 and the Device Status was Official.
Then i installed busybox and with System Tuner Pro, removed from Startup some apps, specially Samsung ones.
Yesterday i was checking the Device Status and it is Custom now (
Tried to flash Official Status Mod again, but nothing..
Triangle Away shows counter 0, Binary official. I tried the System modified workaround, but nothing, it stays Custom.
Is there some app that cannot be desactivated to stay Official? Theres anything else i can try?
Thanks!

Guys,
I have a I9500 with Build XXUBMG1 on 4.2.2. I rooted it through Cofface. So I now try to OTA update to 4.3 and of course Kies refuses because everything reads "Custom" now.
I see Knox software through Titanium Backup.
So,
1) Has Knox been tripped?
2) How do I get everything back to official?

check in download mode it id reads 0x1 then yes you can either reinstall stock firmware or use triangle away to set back to offical and i think wannam xposed has an option to set device status to official in system about phone

I'm still on 4.2.2 and have not flashed 4.3. In download mode, it says "Current Binary: Custom" and "System Status: Custom." No mention of Knox Bit.

Hello.
I rooted my S5 when I first got it simply to use the volume boost mod. A week ago I decided to unroot so I can OTA update, ready for when major updates to the firmware on the phone are released. Anyway. An updated firmware became available so I tried to OTA update (not really expecting it to work) and got the "Modified firmware such and such" error come up. Obviously, rooting the S5 is different from the S3 due to the addition of Knox to the latest firmware, so I've got a few questions to ask.
Is there any way at the moment to reset Knox?
Does Knox stop you from being able to get OTA updates, even if you use TriangleAway to reset the flash counter?
Also. I checked today in Kies and it let me update my firmware but I didn't proceed with it because I'm worried about it bricking my device. I actually unrooted using SuperSU and checked the status of root afterwards using a Root Checker, which said I'm not rooted. Is it safe then to use Kies to install updates to the firmware instead of using OTA updates or will that brick my device?

- Triangle Away doesn`t work with the S5 and neither us it possible to reset the KNOX flag
- Unroot with the Towelroot or superSU app (wich ever you have installed)
- Flash a stock rom (firmware)
- Data factory reset in recovery after the flash
- Done and now you can update with Kies/OTA.
So I sold my buddy the note 3. It was rooted so I flashed a 4.42 stock firmware back on, knox is already tripped. Apparently there's an update for the device and the msg when he tries to update is software has been modified. I download root checker and it is indeed no rooted. Any ideas?
Because knox has been tripped to 0x1, that phone can never updated via ota or the samsung app. You must now download a updated stock rom, or some other fancy rom. Untill someone can fix knox back to 0x0... This is the only way to upgrade.
Experienced this running stock rom and all (recovery, boot etc). But knox is already 0x1. When i was running XTC (Philippine stock kk rom) i get the message about modified software when checking with ota. But when I use XSG(is the csc correct for Singapore?) And try to do an ota it downloaded the update without a problem.
Heres what you can do use triangle away to reset thr binary recovery to official then flash stock rom and see if you can do an ota without any problems.
I flashed my Canadian note 3 (SM-N900W8) back to stock using odin. The device now has stock firmware stock recovery and is unrooted. In device status and in download mode it shows custom, as well as it showing counter:0 within triangle away. I cannot check for OTA updates because of this. It says the device has been modified. Oh and Knox also shows 0x0. Any ideas?
