[Q] Seandroid encorcing - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys!
Some weeks ago, I unrooted my i9505. This saturday I wanted to root again, because of the Kitkat roms from jamal and janjan.
When I'm booting my phone there is a message in the top corner:
"KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID
Set Warranty Bit : kernel"
I read on some different websites that this message isn't cursing any problems, but it would be nice if I could fix it anyways.
Also when i enter download-mode this is what it says:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-I9505
CURRENT BINARY:Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1
CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x30
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
eMMc BURST MODE enabled
Is there any way to fix this?
Before rooting this saturday i had a stock firmware installed, which i found here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/
Rooted my phone with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219803
I've had some random reboots on both roms (jamal and janjan) since then - i don't know whether that is caused by the "enforcing"-error or by the ROM..
Hope you can give me some anwers
Thanks guys

This message appears coz maybe u tried to change the STOCK KERNEL for other different or maybe the ROM u installed have custom KERNEL. I recommend u make WIPE in recovery and install STOCK ROM for let ur system clean. U will can root it and install custom recovery then

So this is what i should do:
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Wipe everything
3. Flash Stock Firmware from ODIN
4. Try to boot, and then the message should be gone
- Or did i misunderstand something?

Nothing can change
only CURRENT BINARY:Custom and SYSTEM STATUS: Custom to Official
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 you can not change

No, you will not have problems
Knox will not work when 0x1
If you install the correct official firmware and this message - "KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID* Set Warranty Bit: kernel "should be removed

eMMC burst mode: enabled

Hi, i used old philz recovery to restore nandroid backup (without selinux option) and now i have this new line in download mode: eMMC burst mode: enabled
unfotunately now i get red warning everytime i boot with custom kernel (top of the screen, red warning: knox kernel warranty void or so..) it is very annoying.
Can i go back to previous state? when i had no messages at boot with custom kernel or recovery? i flashed with odin MJ7 XEO and even MJ3 leak (without botloader ofc because its blocked when trying). i did full wipe, no help...
i had knox warranty bit void 0x1 science day one cause i tried to flash MGA before i read it will void my warranty so no worry about voiding my warranty now, i can flash everythig - please help me to remove this burst mode! thx

hi there, you should be able to flash a stock 4.3 rom. This is what i did. I no longer get anything come up when booting the phone besides the samsung logo. I however want to get back to a 4.2.2 rom.. None of them work.. I can only flash 4.3 roms.

HELP bricked S4

I have the sprint S4. it was rooted and on stock 4.2.2. i updated it to 4.3 and it went into a bootloop. I then tried reverting to my nandroid from earlier today and now it won't boot at all, it just goes to a screen that says, firmware upgrade encountere an issue. please select recovery mode in kies and try again. there is a list on the top left that says,
current binary:custom

knox kernel lock: 0x0
knox warranty void: 0x1
csb-config-lsd: 0x30
write protection enable

I'm a total noob and did the same thing to my phone but I'm pretty sure this is what you need to fix it http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SPH-L720 you can't use MF9 it won't work since you've updated to 4.3. It will take a while to download but just be patient and flash with odin 3.185 :fingers-crossed: Good Luck!

Seem to have bricked my phone following DJembey's root method

Hi everyone, I'm desperate here.
I was following DJembey's root method TO THE WORD/LETTER. Everything was fine up until the last bit in changing the 'custom' status to official. The triangle away method didn't work, so I downloaded the 'OFFICIAL_STATUS_MOD' and used odin to try and flash the PDA, but it came up as 'FAIL' and now my phone is stuck on boot mode with 'FIRMWARE UPGRADE ENCOUNTERED AN ISSUE'. I've tried using odin to flash back to the stock rom, but it keeps coming up with 'FAIL'. Rally need help

what firmware you are trying to root, and what stock firmware you tried to flash?
Here's what it says, this is the firmware I am trying to flash, but just before I did the root guide, I applied all of the official updates through settings >about phone > update, etc. It was still on 4.2.2 and I think it was october edition of the latest firmware (in UK)

i think you have the secured bootloader (check if you have Knox void 0x0 or something in download mode) if yes, you can not go back to MDM or an old firmware, you can flash new "knoxed" firmware.
note that Triangle away and other stuffs to reset counter or status, wont work on new firmware.

it seems you have the secured bootloder, dont use triangle away or somthing else to reset counter and status.
you can flash firmware that begin only with I9505XXUD or I9505XXUE

At the moment I'm downloading "I9505XXUDMI1-PRE-ROOTED-ODEX-FULL.rar", will this work do you think when I try and flash using ODIN? Hope so!!!
Right, I've tried that firmware, and it's still failing on odin any ideas?

Seems this one doesn't work either...
I've noticed something weird though, I've tried running it a few times, and each time it seems to get a little further in the flash process (it gets to just past modem) then fails.
Hello,
what USB cable are you using?
I have encountered an issue with the original Samsung cable, ("fail" in Odin all the time), but when I switched to another usb cable everything worked from that moment on
Try it, you might have luck.

Funny you should say that...
I restarted my PC, and tried a few USB ports, and cables, and it was still failing. But I stuck at it, and literally doing the same procedure over and over seems to have worked, as it randomly decided to flash fine! This was using the XXUE firmware

[Q] Tried to install < Echoe v16 > on GT-I9505 and stuck on first boot

Hi all,
Hopefully someone can help?
The stock firmware for my S4 was XXUEMK9. I followed a combination of this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47227598#post47227598
and also this guide for v16:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2372286
After rooting (CF-AutoRoot) I booted fine, then after installing these two I booted fine:
1. ODIN Flash the New Bootloader (the NAD bootloader will do)
2. ODIN Flash the I9505XXUNB8 Modem
Then I continued with the final stage of installing using Philz/Aroma, rebooted and just get stuck on
KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit : kernel
Samsung
GALAXY S4
GT-I9505
Left for half hour and no change. Also tried repeating the final wipe/install several times, no change.
Please, is someone able to help?
Further to this I can reboot into Recovery or Download, the latter shows:

Well I decided to try v15 instead, that went on first time? Unfortunately wifi was disabled so spend another two hours trying to get the right modem (AP + CP) installed, but finally successful.
I wonder why v16 wont go on? How odd... Anyone else had this issue?

Anyone had experience of this or advice?
The v15 Echoe is crashing and rebooting the phone constantly now, sometimes when it is left alone too, so will have to try something else.

If you can boot to recovery, then I wouldn't say it's "bricked."

Why not just flash a new ROM?

If your phone is "bricked" than your phone has the same exact functionality as a brick. If your phone can turn on and tell you which version of android your on, well... a brick cant do that.
Well I can't get into recovery mode. Being the idiot I tried to flash 4.2.2 over not thinking what I have done. Well, even before I couldn't get into recovery mode. I can get into download mode however. Is it possible I can flash official 4.3 or some other 4.3.1 rom over?

Well friend,
don't panic.. as I know all your loses is that you lost your warranty but not your device..
You can install the stock original rom jelly bean 4.3
If you are interested go to www sammoblie com then (firmwares) then search for your device model (I9500) or (I9505) or (I9505G) or (I9506) then download the firmware for your country and carrier and follow their installing instructions
If you can boot to recovery, then I wouldn't say it's "bricked."

its fixed now , i had to move the stock tar to the same folder as odin, go figure
Haha mate you havent "bricked" your phone.
If your phone enters the recovery, it would be booting into the download mode too.
Try getting the official firmware of your specific phone model nom and just flash it via odin.
Dont worry.

Yeah that is because you upgraded to 4.3 which has KNOX bootloader.
It wont let you flash 4.2.2 anymore. Like a downgrade is not possible once a knix enavled bootloader is flashed.
Download 4.3 or 4.4.2 and flash. It wont fail.
Thanks if i helped.

Sounds nice and all although I tried to flash the official 4.3 from Samsmobile and it's fails.
4.4 is not available for mrtropcs customers because the company don't care about it's customers in this regard. LOL
Just for inquiry purposes only, I found a link to a Guy saying he used lunix to delete know bootloader from a tar filehttps://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&ei=8PDgU7DSOZTdoATTkIKYDA&url=http://m.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3D75DKAGNstbM&cd=1&ved=0CB4QtwIwAA&usg=AFQjCNE7yajeB0317RtOmlFeEIB1QgEOGA&sig2=oD8TmSaTKu19-kpy0AKFGQ
Just go to sammobile and find the latest firmware for your model (4.4.2 for example) and dont look at build number.
Just grab it and extract to desktop.
Put your device in recovery mode if you can, and wipe data/cache/system if you can.
Then put your phone in download mode and connect do computer, in ODIN choose AP and add your tar.md5 file from desktop.
Flash it.
Then pull out battery on first reboot when flashin. Put it back and get into recovery by pressing VolUp + Power. Wipe everything again and reboot.
Should be fine.
i was finally able to flash stock 4.3 by just moving the tar file into the same folder as odin, go figure , i still want 4.4!!LOL
