Knox, why did I do this?
Just installed it, and now don't want it,I don't have root, the reason why I want to get rid of it is I'm sure it will use up something in the background, it's there a way of just having it like I had it before, not installed?I know it's on the phone,
Please help guys.
Thanks

Knox is very simple to remove.
When in the Knox area, tap on the left capacitive 'menu' key, then select KNOX SETTINGS, then select ABOUT KNOX, then select UNINSTALL.

Reinstall it, go to Application manager, clear cache and data, force stop, then disable and uninstall. should fix it

May be you can check the Samsung Auto Reject Settings?
Go to Settings--> Device--> Call--> Auto Rejection to check if you have added any numbers.
I just tried installing the app you have shown but did not have the issue you have mentioned.
Thank you guys..I found what the issue was.i had installed another call block app.and u installed. .but it seems it still retained the data.so I reinstalled it and what do u know..It still had the numbers saved under block. So I deleted the numbers ..and now I get my calls..Thanks a lot everyone. ..I was panicking. ..almost did a reset.

Hello,
My Glaxy Note 3 is having hard times these days. I get black screen after exiting any application. And when the black screen appears, the phone is not responding for couple of seconds. Even the left and right sensor kes are not responding.. Also the home screen stops responding and crashes.
I can only say that everything started after i updated to kitkat.. Since hen my phone is slower..
Note 3 International
KitKat 4.4.2
Kernel version 3.4.0. - 340325
Please help me solve my problem because the performance of my note is ridiculous..
Thank you in advance!

Do i need to backup files (books, pictures, music)
And do i need anti-virus app
Thanks
Back up your internal storage (connect to pc, crtl-c ctrl-v)
You can backup your app data with helium
I dont use one and i dont know many who do use them, if you have much sensile data, u might want to get one.
Imo a anti virus app is only useful if you are rooted, so the antivirus app has more rights than usual apps. If u r unrooted and the antivirus has same rights as maleware apps its kinda useless

Hi I want to start my service after it is killed by the user or the system.
I thought about creating a second app and monitor if the service is running and if not then start it.
The problem I have with that is
- I need two apps
- It drains more battery
I hope you can help me find the best solution for my problem
Yeah, I think if you override the onDestroy method on your service class, and then you can send a broadcast from there.
In your broadcast receiver you can start the service again.
Though i have never tried it myself, i think this should work.
Tell me how it goes
Happy coding!! :thumbup:

I believe there is no such way... otherwise android would be very insecure for malware that just does this . You can only restart your service once the user restarts your activity, there should not be another way (and START_STICKY for the system of course). And please don't do two apps which listen for each other, if the user willingly kills your service they usually have a reason and expect that your app is not working right until they restart it.

Just an idea, it might be possible when your app is a Device Admin with the APIs that you get with that. Though you have to read it yourself, I have no clue about how it works.

Thanks I will look at that. Most people have my app as Device Admin because that way it can't be uninstalled
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Well I found the solution.
When device admin is enabled the app can't be force-stopped or uninstalled. Then the user can only stop the service and then the onDestroy methode is called so then I can restart the service again. Tanks guys :thumbup:

Hi guys
Does anyone know of a good notepad/memo app that actually encrypts the notes (probably with 256 aes)?
There's loads o play store that say they encrypt things but all they really do is either store them with unknown extension , just hide them, or store them and the passwords in plain text.
also the odd few i found that was meant to encrypt everything wouldn't run on lollipop.
So any recommendations ?

Keeper looked really good until I got to all the cloud and autofill passwords features (there's probably even a "forgot my password" option).
Also I think it's law that US companies need to put a back door to security software.
Any others?

If it's the app I'm thinking of, there was a few reviews that said that it actually stores the password in clear text that can be viewed with a file browser or by plugging the phone into a computer.

Has anyone heard about safe notes:

I just tried secure memo and I REALLY don't like the way that all the notes are on one page.
They should have a title that you click on to view the note.
Any other apps out there ?
Anyone else ?

You know, I've been spending so much time trying to find away to root my s5 without tripping knox and I didn't even think of it being helpful to me...lol
Having said that, do you think I would still be able to use a knox container after I've rooted the phone.
In the meantime, if anyone know of any other apps then please let me know ;

Its not that im being picky or sceptical.
I just want a encrypted notepad that does what it says it does by actually encrypting the notes and not just hiding them.
And I don't want to have all the notes on one page as it just complicates things, its better to have all the notes separate so you can click the title of each one to view them.
I'm still looking for recommendations so if anyone has found a good app then please let me know
