I know that 4.3 cannot be rooted as of know.
I just have a confusion here
I am on 4.2.2. I have already rooted it using CF root method. So as per the speculations my warranty is already Void as i have triggered the Hidden Count Meter,
Now .. My confusion is if i upgrade to 4.3 would my KNOX show as 1 or 0 ?

First off check your KNOX WARRANTY VOID in download mode.......If you have the KNOX bootloader there will be 2 extra lines refering to KNOX........One will refer to the kernel, the other KNOX WARRANTY VOID......If KNOX WARRANTY VOID is 0x1 then this cannot be reset so upgrading to 4.3 will not make any difference to this. Once you have triggered it to 0x1 there is (at the moment) no way back to 0x0!

By flashing a KNOX enabled bootloader,,,,,,,4.2 has them also!
XXUDMGG was the first one....
The letters changed from XXUB... to XXUD...
XXUB... - BOOTLOADER KNOX FREE
XXUD... - NEW KNOX BOOTLOADER with 0x0 / 0x1
What is you current baseband? BTW........4.3 can be rooted (but KNOX warranty will be void 0x1)

GT I9500 did not have KNOX bootloader for 4.2.2
I rooted my I9505 and then un-rooted back to stock firmware. My KNOX counter is 0x0 and I haven't done anything special when un-rooting. Just used ODIN and a stock firmware
How exactly do I determine if I have tripped Knox in my early root attempts or not?

Go to Download Mode and you should be able to see your Knox counter. If it is not tripped, it will be 0x0, but if it is tripped, then it will be 0x1

That flag is showing that you have a modified kernel/recovery/ROM. With Knox 0x1 you gain that custom thing but you lose:
- possibly the warranty
- the ability to run the Knox secured stuff
- possibly the ability to run some other software related to DRM (like getting the digital video signal out of the phone).

Hi
My s5 currently is rooted and KNOX is 0x0. I want to flash something more exciting to it but what can I do about KNOX? Can I Remove It Before it is tripped or does it happen no matter what?
Hi - Sorry I don't know the answer to your question but could you share how you managed to root your phone without tripping Knox? All guides / info I have read says Knox will be 0x1 after root and as such I cannot / have not rooted.
Thanks
you cannot remove KNOX.
If you flash anything - KNOX goes to 0x1 making you void your warranty

Visit this thread https://towelroot.com/ on your phone and click the lambda and follow instructions. KNOX will stay on 0x0.
Thanks !
It seems within the last 2 weeks after almost everyone saying "rooting will trip Knox and don't count on anything different any time soon" that rooting now does not trip Knox
Very pleased, I am.
And thanks for the link. Seems not everyone knows about this yet.
KNOX
Understood. But is the warranty that important?
Sure using towelroot to root your device won't trip knox but once you flash a custom recovery so you can use custom roms, kernels etc it will
What happens after you disable KNOX from SuperSU?
I thought that you could do anything you want and KNOX will be 0x0 since it's "disabled".

Iirc Knox is implemented in the boot loader which can't be hacked, so Knox will always be there
If you live in Europe, Knox isn't a factor

They are referring to some regula by EU Laws, which indirectly tells that manufacture cannot deny warranty because of rooting.
At same time, organization in my country responsible about these kind of claims says, they agree on Samsungs warranty paper, which says we are not allowed to root. So If I would want justice in my country, it can be done only by court!
So dont count on EU law helping... may work and may not.

Warranty...there are laws here that supercede it, but the above post is basically true (although two people I know who had rooted and used the warranty didn't have to go to court)

However in my case all I want to do right now is disable the silly camera shutter sound.
Alright, So Im From The UK. I Want To Get Rid Of Silly Touchwiz which Samsung loves to use. To do so I know I need to flash a different ROM. Doing this will flag KNOX. KNOX being flagged will void warranty. Should I Care About Warranty? Or Should I Flash Away?

Not necessarily.. Have you heard of "Themer"? I was running themer on my completely stock Note3. You have a wide selection of touchwiz replacements. Take a looksie.
Knox will be tripped if you load a custom recovery or kernel.
Apart from resale reasons, why is everyone so worried about going 0x1?

Perhaps because it may void people's phone warranty.

True, didn't think about how many people actually used that.

Hopefully not many. You'd expect Samsungs warranty return % to be very low. I wonder if there are published figures, but I would hope <0.1% of customers. However, after a few months of using your device you would know if you need to warranty the phone or not. Then I guess you wouldn't mind going 0x1.
Could we establish the rule to include in the name of the ROM trhead if it can be flashed with Knox 0x0 or not?
I think it would be much more clear to everyone and avoid some unpleasant Knox 0x1

Wrong thread - please refrain from asking these questions in the Development threads. There's a General thread and a Q&A for this.
Sorry, I tought it could be usefull here.
Can any moderator move this to the right place?

If you flash an original firmware based custom rom by Odin or Odin mobile, you don't change the Knox counter ad your Note 3 is still on warranty.
The Knox counter value is 0x0 at the origin, if you flash something not official or officially based, this counter goes to 0x1 and Samsung doesn't give you any warranty no more.
At the momento there is no any method to move it back to 0x0.
