I have tried to find info on the knox part. if it can get removed .. But nothing yet
* Can it void the warrenty when removed? If it can be removed?
It seems that when you root n3 the knox counter will raise " As if the damn samsung counter wasnt enugh"

I don't know if there is some part of Knox that is inbuilt, but if I click on the Knox app, samsung asks me to 'install' it
I just tried to 'scrapbook' the screen it displayed and got a toast message saying 'unable to capture screen, DRM protected image'
Just tried taking a screen shot of the Knox app myself Lol

After an unsuccessful installation of ROOT I could run the Knox
So the device manufacturer's warranty void ... What else needs to know in order not to destroy the device?
Nothing, you are god.
No seriously, Knox 0x1 is just a binary counter showing that you have modified your device rendering your customer warranty invalid**. It doesn't affect any of the phone/Knox functions and you can continue using everything as it is.
** If you live in the EU you have a "protected" warranty. You can google/serach around to find more about this it has been discussed numerous times in the forum

Well, you only have 2 problems:
- if you will ever need a warranty repair it MUST be for something that you can PROVE it was Samsung's fault or you will have to pay their (inflated) prices (as an alternative if the phone is completely dead they will never be able to see that knox was 1);
- you might have problems running some programs - the Knox safety container most obviously, but there might be other programs refusing to run (stuff with protected media comes to mind - RIAA are known to be paranoid and to force many other software companies to play at the same level of craziness).

Do not be afraid!
Now you are a free bird:laugh:
Try attempts to root and flash custom recoveries
way to go...:good:
I enjoy my N9005 with Knox 0x1 than with Knox 0x0 ?
nothing., it just means that your device has lost its virginity and there's no losing it second time
Depending on where you are, you may have voided your warranty. But in the case that you need repair you can still pay a fee and get serviced.
Nothing to be stressing about
hi
I have a challenge with my N9005. It does a reboot, then when I enter the password to login it hangs for a few seconds, and reboots again. When I take take the battery out for a while I'm able to now login. but at this point it says "deleting KNOX". I realise that all my applications are nowhere to be found. Google PlayStore too is off. Bottomline is, there is nothing on the fone at this point; not even the Samsung and Google Folders. Its happend 4 times within the last month.
Please help. Thanks

Were u using Knox before ? If u were using Knox all ur data are encrypted inside Knox. The problem arose when Knox container damaged (Knox 0x1). If that is what happened then ur Knox data is surely be gone.

I hadnt moved any of the data to KNOX. I hardly even use KNOX, though its installed and set up. Is there a solution to the KNOX container getting damaged so often? an update or something available?
Thanks.

I dont know whats going on to ur phone but it seems that Knox has broken. Check via download mode VolDown-Home-Power at the same time whether Knox values is 0x1 or still 0x0..

It's still 0x0
Reflash your Stock ROM, If your KNOX is 0x0 still all it'll do is repair any damage to the system files and restore it.
I know my Verizon S5 has been rooted before, but now it is no longer rooted and I would like to check my Knox status. How am I able to do this? I did the Vol. down, home and power button and that didnt tell me the KNOX WARRANTY VOID.
It says "Knox Warranty Void:" If it shows 0x0 you are fine and knox is not tripped, however, if it shows something other than 0x0, it is tripped...
Just download "phone info" from the app store and it should tell you whether you tripped knox or not.

Hello. Thanks in advance for your help.
(Oh! Sorry for my bad English, not my native language)
My galaxy s5 phone (Samsung SM-G900F) is having problems with the camera, because when the application suddenly appears a message saying "connection error" and does not allow to use it. So I reset the phone to work again.
I thought maybe by installing a newer version of the ROM version would work (my operator no update at that time), so I downloaded the latest version without carrier.
However, the problem occurs again. So I want to take your phone to the warranty offered by my carrier, but I must erase traces of flashes, because otherwise I will not get the phone to warranty.
How I can reset the flash counter knox without altering the warranty void?
At this time, the device is unroot. But in the download mode, the number of flash appears.
Thanks for the help.

So will the company respect that it is a hardware problem and Support the warranty, or not because of the counter?
I don't know what happens in this case, that's why I ask..
Thanks,

As you live in Europe warranty even after rooting is still valid, unless Samsung can prove that rooting caused the defect.This is a European law for protecting consumers.

Right now I have 0x0 Knox Warranty Void.
I want to reset the flash counter only ..
I know I can root with Towelroot. I know I can reset the counter with triangle away. But I do not know if using triangle away will tripping knox warranty void 0x1.
Doesn't the Knox Counter 0xsomething indicate if the device has been flashed? If it's 0x0, your warranty is still there and you don't have to worry.

if we unroot phone can't we just enable it ?
Depends how it's rooted. If Knox Warranty Void is 0x1 - you can't do nothing to it. If device is rooted keeping Knox flag 0x0, there might be a way to recover the data somehow, since Knox shouldnt be locked up.

If he used cf-auto-root Knox warranty is void (you can check that booting phone to download mode, if you don't know how or what that is, Google it. If there is line "Knox Warranty Void 0x1" means warranty is void, and "0x0" means it's fine)
Knox is 0x1 on his phone and that means there is no way to recover data from Knox container, at least as for now, most probably will never be.

yeah i know .. abut all you said ... i know guaranty is void but data to him is much important than phone guaranty .. i guess he should get phone to samsung and tell them " data all i need if you want money or void warranty the ndo it ... i guess the only way is samsung speciallists to bring back data !!! i wonder how he ignore the part that super su want's to disable knox !!!!
i wanna test to unroot and see if knox returns or not

Oh god. Knox warranty void means Knox is not secure anymore. You can't recover data no matter what you do. If you unroot, it changes nothing.
Read this article from Samsung about Knox and CF-Auto-Root.
It clearly says: "Once the e-fuse bit is burned, a Samsung KNOX-enabled device can no longer create a KNOX Container, or access the data previously stored in an existing KNOX Container. This is a mechanism to ensure that enterprise data will be protected as long as the rooting attempt is detected."
