1. On what ROM are you?
2. What's stopping you from flashing via odin/heimdall?

If it only appears when u boot in recovery is the normal coz u changed the STOCK recovery for this custom one. If u flash other KERNEL the logo appears when u boot the phone. Anyway now u can flash KERNEL/ROM that u prefer

Recovery is not seandroid enforcing Knox set to 0x1
Hi guys, Just had the same messages on booting : KERNEL/RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING and Knox set to 0x1
First, DO NOT FLASH OLDER ANDROID VERSION (4.2.2 / 4.1.2) OVER THE ANDROID 4.3 UPDATE
If ever its done already and you need to Unbrick your samsung device, read the following post to restore :
Just had the same messages on booting : KERNEL/RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING and Knox set to 0x1
just after I flashed 4.2.2 based Custom Rom using an OTG cable/FlashDrive over Android 4.3 Stock and/or Custom Roms.
I had these at boot in red and yellow : Warranty void and Knox set to 0x1. But in About device, Android version went from 4.3 to 4.2.2 then i tryied some different custom kernels but nothing to do, wifi keeps crashing plus i had these bootup messages. I did FULLY wipe/restore the device to stock android 4.3 on my SGH-I337M phone using odinv3.09 and I337MVLUEMK6_I337MOYAEMK6_I337MVLUEMK6_HOME.tar.md5
file and it worked after something like the 3rd try, why the importance to FULLY wipe system, data, dalvik cache, cache using a custom Recovery before starting the restore
I dont recommend to flash older android version over The update 4.3. It was such a waste of time to restore it!
Just saying, if you guys had the same issue, your phone ISNT bricked, It took me around 15 hours to find and download Odin and Samsung stock 4.3 firmware plus ReRoot and flash it with odin... ive used my OTG cable to flash kernels or to restore from backups and now, my phone
is FIXED :good:

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.

[Q] Kernel is not seandroid enforcing set warranty bit: Kernel - Boot loop ?

Hi guys,
Yesterday I updated to the new N9005XXUENA6 Leaked KitKat 4.4.2. Didn't really think much of it and finally decided to root the phone.
I rooted the phone with CF-Auto-Root thanks to chainfire. Anyway after that I installed CWM recovery as TWRP haven't really updated it since the new update for note 3.
Now i can get to the CWM recovery and after installing any rom
I tried
1. [JAN-13][hlte][1.2.4] AOSB Project (ProBAM ROM) - The End of The Line ! and then
2. [CM11][4.4.2][N9005][ROM][KERNEL][JAN13] temasek's UNOFFICIAL Build - V33
However, in both cases I get an error:
Kernel is not seandroid enforcing
set warranty bit: kernel
and keeps on boot looping.
I can get into download and recovery but cannot install any custom ROM's.
After a bit of looking around and what i gathered from similar questions,I tried installing a couple of kernels but still its a no go!.
Is it as a result of the new N9005XXUENA6 update? or me doing something idiotic?
P.S: Tried wiping data / factory reset, format partition / system, etc. Cannot find fix permissions in the new CWM however and cannot use TWRP as it just doesn't boot up into the recovery.
Thanks in advance.

Based on what I read so far regarding the 4.4.2 update, if you flashed it on your device, there seems to be no way to go back to 4.3 ( I'm not sure if that means custom roms based on 4.3 as well ). Best thing to do is just flash the official 4.4.2 and hang in there until custom roms based on 4.4.2 comes out or people find a way to go back to 4.3. The reason the file from firasusman didn't work is probably because there might be difference in how kit kat deals with efs compared to jellybeans which it was written for in the first place.

You probably are right as it doesn't really work. Anyway I'll keep waiting

Yip you won't be able to go to a lower bootloader than you are on with KK, CM based ROMs are currently running (MJ7) _ will have to wait until the new bootloader is implemented into new(er) builds.
Thanks for that info. Will keep an eye out. Cheers

Hi all,
I Have the same error " Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing " but it's when I try to root my SM-N9005 with the procedure of the SM-9005 (My phone can't be rooted)

Before you did this was your 4.4.2 on KitKat working well? Or did you come from 4.3? If you came from a correctly installed 4.4.2 then do go to this thread and start from STEP 8

download the files required from STEP 8 onwards.
This is CWM recovery and not TWRP. I dont have experience with TWRP.

I'm assuming you're on 4.3, you have to use this in pda/ap on odin. After flashing phone will restart with android and texts in color. After that it will reboot again to system and you will have root. SEandroid Enforcing is normal if you're rooting you're device. Have you checked with root checker if you have root? Also, once you root your device you will have to flash a custom recovery like cwm or twrp to be able to boot to those recovery.

The rom you flashed is based on android 4.3, if the phone you bought already have 4.4 then that is probably the cause of the loop. Flash another rom based on 4.4 or download stock firmware from sammobile and flash using odin.

[A700FD] Root Problem galaxy A7

OK guys,
well after i updated to new lolipop via kies i didn't like it so i downgraded again to kitkat 4.4.4. Now its been almost 2 weeks trying everything i know and can to root my phone again but so far i can not .
i used CF-Auto-Root-a7lte-a7ltexx-sma700fd with base "A700FDXXU1AOA2_HOME.tar" all via odin and still won't work everytime i try to root i get this stupid error "Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing set | warrnty bit: recovery"
i tried everything wipe date-hard factory reset .... everything it just won't get done -_->
so i tried kingroot and now boom it worked BUT i want to install SuperSu and it won't install bianry i tried everything from supersu me to terminal console trick and still won't get done and i need SuperSu coz i like it more and it works better with Lucky Patcher plus i already got it premium XD
so what did i do wrong? why i can't root it and get this stupid error ?
P.S
1-in odin mode there is this blue text 'Secure download on "
2-could this all relate to knox some how ?
"Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing set warranty bit: recovery" is not an error, its a warning and means nothing.
When downgrading to kitkat you need to wipe the data partition.
Flash the stock firmware, wipe the Data partiton, boot to android (10mins), reboot to download mode, flash cfautoroot.
If cfautoroot doesn't work flash TWRP then flash Supersu.

Check if your flashing the right ROM for your phone model.
Status 7 error is caused while the ROM’s updater script file checks to see if the phone model of your phone is compatible with the ROM you are installing

Post your problem on ROMs thread, CM13 installation works fine, but you need firmware from 5.1.1 and TWRP for the 5.1.1 .
You need the right TWRP for your current firmware, like if CM13 uses firmware from 5.1.1 you need to 1st downgrade to Android 5.1.1 and then install TWRP for 5.1.1.
Same for rom that uses other firmware version
Try flashing stock using TWRP recovery. If you have a PC, you can enable MTP in the Mount menu in TWRP and connect it to PC and then move the firmware file and install it using TWRP again.
Alternatively, you can boot into download mode (Vol. Down+Home+Lock Screen simultaneously) and install the stock firmware using ODIN.
You can also create a backup of your apps in TWRP so that you can restore them after you have installed stock firmware.
Ready to help if you need more elaborate steps or any other information.
Had completely same problem with My bootloader. I just downgraded to 5.1 stock with Odin and flashed twrp by Nick Verse. After that I had no problems flashing any roms.

Have you reflaahed the stock firmware set up all the phone and then reflash the recovery ? This could fix

i9505 Set Warranty Bit: Kernel

Welcome guys,
I have Galaxy S4 and I wanted to install Custom ROM. Unfortunately when I installed TWRP (the newest build), my phone displays "Set warranty bit: kernel" and then it boots into Recovery Mode (twrp works fine), but stock ROM doesn't boot. I don't know how to deal with it. Will custom ROM install fix that problem? I don't want to brick it.
I have access to download mode, TWRP (as I said before, when I turn phone on, it boots into TWRP instantly), but unfortunately ODIN doesn't recognize phone at all.
Please help :crying:
Does the computer recognize the phone?
After installing, did you select the option to allow changes to the internal memory?
Tried different USB cables and USB ports?
If you get the phone recognized by Odin, I suggest flashing a stock ROM via Odin and checking the phone to ensure complete functionality. Once you know the phone is working on a stock ROM, maybe start with an older version of TWRP such as 2.87.
Flashing a custom recovery should not prevent the phone from booting a stock ROM.

I'm such an idiot. When knox is tripped you cant run stock ROM, so basically I just installed LineageOS and it works hah

I've flashed TWRP to a number of Samsung phones which cause Knox to trip and the warranty bit to change from 0x0 to 0x1. Despite this, I have been able to flash and use stock ROMs with a tripped Knox indicator.
Maybe the phone needed a factory reset using the stock recovery after being flashed with Odin?

Aaaand here we got the problem. I tried to install twrp many times and unfortunately the stock one stopped running (dont ask, i dont know how it happened). Despite this everything worked but I wanted to install custom ROM and then that problem happened. It was just the lack (??) of stock ROM or knox blocked the availability to boot it.
Oh, completely forgot. I installed TWRP by LineageOS' tutorial on their page
It all worked out in the end which is the important part.
Thanks for sharing your solution.
