What will happen if i flash a device which has Russia's(or Other Countries) 4.3 ROM , with India's 4.3 ROM? Will it set the KNOX warranty Bit flag.
I bought my phone in India. After i started using Omega ROM which has MG9 modem, i was never able to switch back to Indian Stock 4.2.2 which had MG5 modem, as in MG5 modem i was getting a generic IMEI and the network was not working. So i settled for using the KSA 4.2.2 ROM which has MG9 modem, hoping someday India ROM will get MG9 or higher. My device still shows the Official Status in the Download Mode.
My big problem now i how do i get back to Indian Firmware without voiding the Know warranty. Can i wait for 4.3 to release in KSA and then flash back India's 4.3 so that i dont face the IMEI problem with the ROM's? If i do this will it void the Knox warranty?
Or flash the MG5 ROM of India and get the official 4.3 India update? will this solve my IMEI issue?
I also heard that there is a binary counter for the number of times a Custom ROM is flashed. If we upgrade to 4.3 with non-zero binary counter will the KNOX warranty void flag?

Incase u hvnt installed 4.3 yet -
Oky, heres what u do: revert back to stock 4.2.2 android, then go to software update, (it will b good if u use triange away and remove the no.) and u shud receive update for indian firmware, since bootloader is installed later u wont loose ur warranty(when u will install it for first time the warranty bit says 0 ..)
I installed 4.3 russian fw by mistake and since my warranty bit was 0 samsung installed indian firmware on my phone(had to fight a lil tho ..)
Dnt do anything after flashing 4.3 for first time, since whatever u do will trip a flag, thus voiding the warranty ... i had isssues getting my phone fixed even at warranty bit 0 ..
Hope that helped ...
First reverted back to India MG5 4.2.2 ROM and then did 4.3 update through kies and everything went fine.
Now my fake imei problem is gone and I am back under warranty

Hi,
You said that you used OMEGA rom. It means you rooted your phone and installed CWM recovery. Now you installed I9500XWUBMG5 4.2.2 stock rom and updated to stock 4.3 via KIES or OTA. My question is now your KNOX warranty is 0x0 or 0x1.
Could you please confirm I want root my phone.
Thanks.
What will happen if i install russian 5.1.1 to my indian galaxy note 3 neo
hello guys any one here i had flash indian firmware were few days ago bt now i want to back to nepal firmware ...my device is j7 2016 model plz help me to go back to nepal firmware again
@rohit gurung: The forums for your device are here. To install the Nepal firmware you need to download it from a site like Sammobile and flash it to the device just like you flashed the Indian firmware.
I have bought a used S4+ i9506. It has been updated to stock 4.3 and knox status is 0x0.
I see that there's very little development around this device. I have a few questions.
What are my options if I want to root? Are there any?
If so, are there any way of rooting it without tripping knox?
Anyone know if an official 4.4.2 is on it's way? Norwegian phone with csc NEE.
1. Kingo app -> HERE. It doesn't void ur warranty (KNOX: 0x0)
2. NEE doesn't have android 4.2.2 still (Pic attached)

Does Kingo support 4.3 on the i9506? According to this thread it does not:

I can't update to 4.4.2 my i9505 ...
For some reason , Kies cant update , etc . The question is : will manually update to a stock 4.4.2 void the warranty?
Thx!

hi I have a sm-n900 and I bought it from DUBAI and in stay in INDIA. after some custom flashings I have lost my IMEI and baseband. but fortunately a Samsung service statition has put my KNOX back .so I have KNOX 0x0. but my CSC in recovery is showing csc:KSA. where as my Firmware is XSG. I am planning to send it to Dubai for claiming warranty. Will CSC make any difference or it's fine as it is.

CSC does not matter, what matters is Knox 0x0. But as you said, you have lost Imei, i am not sure how the service center in Dubai see that as, you can probably say when i was updating my software using kies it rebooted and this happened,
Dubai will not fix your problem under warranty if your csc is ksa, flashing stock xsg will not trip knox.
