[Q] security update notification when connected to WIFI - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As i have been using only mobile data for days since my upgrade i find the message in the screenshot weird since i connected to WIFI. I tried searching to no avail.
What happens is when this message is displayed my WIFI disconnects.
Can anyone help me how to disable the message?
Btw, i'm using i9505 stock non-rooted 4.3
Cheers!

im sure its something to do with knox ask in that section

I have the exact same problem since upgrading to 4.3. Everytime it connects to wifi that silver shield icon with security information warning pops up, really annoying. I don't know how to fix this.

What do you mean? Do I have it install Knox first? Mine is just a Knox shortcut, I didn't install it.

Same problem here.
I searched for this security warning and it seems to happen when toggling wifi on/off or the phone tries to connect to a open network when in standby.
Some reports say a factory reset can fix this issue, but I did that after I flashed 4.3 BTU and I still get the warning. Another possibility is to clear data and force close Knox notifications, but this won't last.
Maybe the only way to get rid of this for good is to root and remove all Knox crap.
Although, this leaves a question. Why is my phone trying to connect on itself to open networks ? I have turned off location service.
This is very shady business practice from both Samsung and Google. After all , I own this damn phone, I didn't payed 600 Euro for a spy tool on behalf of Google.

Guys, heard anything or any new update from Samsung about this issue? The warning message is really really annoying.

Wi-fi security error message
I am also getting the same security warning when toggling Wi-Fi on/off or when roaming. I am not using Knox, at least I haven't installed the main app as yet. Phone stock S4 gt-19505. I haven't done a factory reset since upgrading to 4.3 as some have reported that the problem still persisted.
Does anyone have a fix?

You can still root even if they put MJ7 on it but you may lose knox if they put the new bootloader on it.

So I have experienced some issues. When I first got the phone it was stuttery and having issues with Google Music and freezing up. Next Day I factory reset it (twice in a row cuz I'm paranoid) and been a dream since. However, just last night it has an issue too. I was messing with some PSP ROM and trying to load it from sdcard. Then I started reading that A) there may be issues with the 64GB SanDisk SDcards AND/OR B)Note 3 may have some issues with indexing sdcards in general.
So if you are using an sdcard of any size, try taking it out or reformatting (after backing up ofcourse) and see if that helps. BUT for sure a lot of problems are cleared up with a factory reset. Mine is at about 95% now except for that weird issue last night.
I do not use any sd card at present

Modem is DMJ7, but my boot loader is still MI7
I have today seen that the most probable issue with the freeze is my RAM is getting filled up, i used LMT pie control and from that i can see, that my ram used is always 2109MB, leaving only 333MB. I have now frozen, Flipboard, after which after cleaning the RAM, the usage is now 1928, even thought the stock ram status says only 0.99GB used. Can some please help me

"Failed to enable Private Mode. Try Again." Private Mode not supported with ART

"Failed to enable Private Mode. Try Again." Private Mode not supported with ART
I was trying out all the various features of my new S5 today and discovered when enabling Private Mode it flashes the following "Failed to enable Private Mode. Try Again." and obviously fails to enable Private Mode.
The only things I've done to my phone are enabling Developer Options and switching runtime to ART. I noticed that on reboot, having ART enabled displays the Custom unlock icon on the bootscreen. Does using ART prevent the usage of Private Mode?
EDIT: Switched back to Dalvik and verified Private Mode now works as expected.
I've had the same problem and I also have ART enabled

Turn on Private Mode
Set the password option to use with it
Mark your photos, videos, music, etc that you want to set private via options

Since this is the Verizon SM-G900V forum, no we cannot confirm this as we have no root or unlocked bootloader. I would defer to chainfire's response on the matter.

This is really confusing - why are some people saying they've got it working after rooting (which trips knox) and others aren't able to get it working. If it was because of Knox, then it shouldn't work for anyone who rooted their device, let alone installed Xposed.

Yes, on the VZW S5 it dosen't trip Knox. I'm pretty sure Chainfire is refering to CF Autoroot witch dosen't work on our locked bootloaders. We have to use towelroot.

Thanx I'll get back to you when I have trIed these options.
I successfully rooted using towelroot and installed supersu. I also installed foxfi. It was able to get me past the mobile hotspot problem but still could not tether. It requested I install pd(something) On the computer first..Wil this always be the case? Can I not tether without installing that on the computer?
Also I have had to reset to factory settings because i happended to activate "talk back", the result was that the phone kept reading everything i touched but thats all it did meaning i could not select anything, not even switch off or do anything!! Not even unchecking talk back..instead it would read out loud "talk back" and the phone was hanging so bad ..another thing is the foxfi prompted for a password which then took over the screen lock. I went to screen lock settings to disable but the option of disabling was unavailable.
I have also noticed after trying to use the Light touch option that it works so terribly on 4.4.2. The whole screen un uniformly flashed pink at every touch in such a way that an epileptic would not survive the effects. I had to switch the phone off for this to be disabled as well. So there goes the woes of my Samsung galaxy s3 sch-I535 Verizon. Anyone able to address all my issues is more than welcome. Note: foxfi did not sort the tether problem. It sorted the hotspot though.

Have you tried using your own wifi (to make sure the problem comes from your phone and not from the 4G network) ? If the download works with your wifi but not with 4G, you can assume that your 4G provider is blocking p2p ports. Otherwise the problem probably comes from the configuration of your app.
Yes I have tried using my wifi and the same problem comes up I was able to download with wifi and without before rooting. It started right after I rooted the phone. I have tried different apps to download torrents with no success.

Use a system app uninstaller from the playstore (a red recyclebin logo app) and remove all knox related crap
if you dont want your knox warranty to trip.
If it has already tripped.. i.e. if you are running a custom recovery like cwm or philz
Then...let me see what xda has for you..
try this if you are running a custom recovery to deknox but read the thread first.

How did you root? Because if you have the sprint version, then you don't have an i9505 but an SPH-L720.
Yeah that it like I said I'm new at this and still learning but I don't remember what I used to root it..... sph-l720 is what I got.... been searching all over the place see if anyone has had this problem and haven't been able to find anything
