[Guide? May be not] N9005 - How I delete KNOX and flash BMJ3 over BMJ1

(Flashed MJ1 over MI7 before...)
Hi @all
Because I'm a retired man I need my Note 3 for my personal use only. Not for Enterprise or Government working, then I don't need the hateful KNOX.
After customer recovery install and root access, the first thing I make is delete all apk and more from it.
1 - From system/app I delete:
ContainerAgent.apk + odex
ContainerEventsRelayManager.apk + odex
FusedLocation.apk + odex
KLMSAgent.apk + odex
KNOXAgent.apk + odex
KNOXAttestationAgent.apk + odex
KNOXStore.apk + odex
KNOXStub.apk
SPDClient.apk + odex
From system/containers I delete:
All .apk + .zip file and 2 apk inside subfolder framework
2 - Before flash by Odin3 v3.09 I make my Rom BMJ1 reduced, only whit: (Now BMJ3)
boot.img
cache.img.ext4
hidden.img.ext4
modem.bin
NON-HLOS.bin
recovery.img
system.img.ext4 ---> ONLY
No KNOX bootloader, no tz.mbn (this is TIMA from Knox)
I make this with the Tool Tar.md5.Packager from A.S._id DEV. Thanks A.S._id, this is a good tool. Thanks bohdans also.
At end I have a Rom-BMJ1.tar.md5 only whit that 7 modules. (Now BMJ3)
Flashed twice for a double test over data, worked well whithout issues.
3 - Now if I type getprop on Shell Terminal Emulator I have:
[ro.bootloader]: [N9005XXUBMI7] --> This is the original bootloader not changed.
But and:
[ro.build.PDA]: [N9005XXUBMJ1] --> and more MJ1 the new. (Now MJ3)
[ril.product_code]: [SM-N9005ZKETPH] --> Replaced the original csc by TPH from my Country by default.
If I help somebody whit I'm happy
If someone have some different opinions, please post here.
Thanks
Today flashed MJ3 over MJ1 whit same method. Replaced the csc version from OXA to OXX whit the TPH, csc from my Country.
Made a Rom MJ3 reduced, all like on OP but to MJ3.
The bootloader continue [ro.bootloader]: [N9005XXUBMI7] --> Original bootloader not changed.
Works well.
If you care about privacy and permissions you will find that Knox is actually great. Like having two separate smartphones on one smartphone where you can keep all your personal stuff on Knox and stuff you do not care about on the regular side.

Hi ValenteL, I am having different issue from yours but i think your method would help me to unbrick my phone.
I have a N9005 16G hongkong TGY stock rom. And 1 beautiful day i've decided to change my rom to UK BTU latest rom (as i always did for my note 2). Downloaded the rom, flashed via odin and got stuck at Odin: Imvalid ext4 Image.
Then I flashed back my stock rom (1 file .tar.md5, and all 4 files including AP, BL, CP, CSC files. All not succeeded with the error on the phone is SW REV check fail [aboot] fused 2 > binary 1. In Odin it stopped at aboot.mbn fail.
As consulted from other people, because i flashed a newer rom than my stock, even it was not successful, I can't go back to my older stock, and i have to wait for the Hk TGY rom to be upgraded. It will take forever because they are still on MI7 firmware.
And other thing is my N9005 is 16G phone, so i cant flash the 32G either (it said something about storage, i forgot).
So reading your posts, i thought i could extract newer bootloader, and put it in older stock rom? Please help me with this.
Thank you very much.

Hi
Unfortunately I can't help You. Your Note 3 is 16 GB and mine is 32 GB. We can't compare the Note 2 whit Note 3, see my post before whit attachments. On first we have at left the Note 2 at right the Note 3 whit all controlled by KNOX Bootloader.
But I try.
If you flash the customer Recovery 6.0.4.4 by Odin3 v3.09 (always 09) after, the Note 3 reboot whit the Rom working now?
If Yes install the Shell terminal emulator from Play Store, start it and type getprop. You see a big listing. See a line [ro.bootloader]: [N9005xxxxxx] where xxx.. is the bootloader installed. Send me this line.
PS. The UK BTU you tried is XXUBMJ3?
Good luck

Dear ValenteL, all i can get in now is download mode (when i turn on my phone, it goes to a screen with pix of phone and computer connected, ask me to do recovery through kies _ that didnt work either). I will try to flash custom recovery see what happen then.

Hi ValenteL, the BTU rom was PDA N9005XXUBMJ3, CSC N9005OXABMJ3, modem N9005XXUBMJ2. And my old TGY rom was PDA N9005ZHUBMI7, CSC N9005ZZHBMI7, and modem N9005XXUBMI5 (different region). From my old rom, i flashed the newer BTU, now i want to go back to my old rom and got Bootloader error. So i thought i could use your method to go back from MJ3 to MI7.

Now if You flashed the XXUBMJ3 You have the XXUBMJ3 bootloader. The aboot.mbn (bootloader) is the first module to be installed to control bootloaders.
You can't install an older booloader like MI7 from HK now. You have always this "SW REV check fail [aboot] fused 2 > binary 1".
And when You had a error on image.ext4 I think is region not compatible. You had a ZH and You tried a XX. I think that Chainfire have something to solve this, You must search where.
If You have HERE the Rom HK TGY N9005ZHUBMI7. Try this whit this Rom:
Make a Rom BMI7 reduced, only whit:
boot.img
cache.img.ext4
hidden.img.ext4
modem.bin
NON-HLOS.bin

n910f flashing problem

hallo i bought the note 4 n910f before 1 week and i would like to ask why i can not flash any rom with odin exept the german. with the other roms alwais fail or stuck to hidden.

hey there to root your Note 4 smn910f you first go to settings/security and then you will see a V behind reactivation deactivate this
after that's done connect to odin and flash cf root
you will see that it will not fail
i dont want to root yet i just want to change official rom and i can't flash via odin
it says when odin write hidden.img.ext4 volume size is too big 81920<184320
Can I ask which firmware you are trying to flash? Is it for the 910f if it's for a different variant that will probably be why
I have the German and I want to flash the Greek I downloaded them from sam mobile for the n910f
just came across the same issue something is messed with hidden partition image size, the default partition size is smaller whereas the the img file on the odin file is much bigger

Got the same problem today, cant flash any rom other than the latest UK (BTU) When trying to flash any other rom I get this message. Any idea how to fix it?
Some serious problem with Odin flashing the n910f. I have just gone through a night of torment, having tried flashing the newest firmware and getting a failure due to the hidden partition problem mentioned above.
Originally, my firmware was on n910fxxu1anj4. I flashed n910fxxu1ank6, the flash failed on flashing the hidden partition with:
Volume Size is too big 81920 < 204800
ODIN: Invalid ext4 image
and the phone was stuck in a bootloop on the first screen with the text “Note 4”.
Then even with wipe, restore of backup etc the phone wouldn't boot.
Flashed n910fxxu1ank5, same failure, didn't record the numbers, couldn't get it to boot in no way...
Flashed the original n910fxxu1anj4, flash failed also on the hidden partition with:
Volume Size is too big 81920 < 471040
Stuck in bootloop, but upon reflash of CWM recovery and cache and data clean, the phone booted, and I was able to restore a backup which works fine now...
However there must be some serious problem.
Anyone have an idea what this is?

I think we need a correct PIT file for each firmware maybe ?

From what I have gathered on some of the models is that the only firmware that you can flash to your phone are the ones made for the CSC of your phone. Navigate to system/csc then look at the different CSC files in that folder. Those are the only ones I can flash on my H model anyways.

I had Swedish firmware with CSC NEE and could flash a firmware with CSC BTU. But I cant flash back the NEE firmware again. And looking at the hidden.img.ext4 and cache.img.ext4 in the only firmware I can flash it has the smallest. All the other firmwares have bigger hidden and cache files. So I think the phone needs to flashed with re-partition checked in Odin and that is not possible without the correct PIT file. I am relly tired of this phone, Samsung has made it too complicated to flash firmwares

Have you tried using Kies to do a firmware upgrade and initialization? When you plug your phone in Kies may warn you that it doesn't support your phone but you can still do it. You may be better off just leaving it alone though.

What was your original software? Could root have messed this up? Before rooting I flashed the BTU and DBT and NEE firmwares without problem. But then staying at BTU for some weeks and then rooted. And after that I can flash no other firmware. Trying to restore the phone to the NEE firmware as I am going to sell the phone.
Any more input on this? I did the same as Ogy77 and sure the phone boots but I got some strange crashes and did a factory reset and flashed back the stock recovery. So it boots but the CSC is gone as the cache.img.ext not is flashed so no OTAs will work as Kies does not regonize the phone with a firmware witout CSC?
I have the same problem, Im using xnote as i cant flash my vodafone UK stock rom
I was stuck in a bootloop but flashed twrp and installed xnote again as it was stored on my sd card luckily! I would like to know how to flash back to stock
I have same problem. I have a open 910F and get the same error on odin file size is too big. What can i do?

Unfortunately TGY firmware is not compatible with other firmware (including TTT region)
Now you will need the PIT file to flash with the appropriate firmware (with the option Re-Partition selected).
- If you want to flash TGY firmware, you will need the PIT file from TGY device.
- If you want to flash TTT firmware, you will need the original PIT file from your device.
And note that do not flash back to the 4.3 as that may brick your device.
Try to flash only 4.4.2 from now on.
Thanks for your informative reply.
Do you know where I can download TTT or TGY pit file?
Most sites only have the ROM but not pit files
Thanks alot for your advice.
I successfully flash the TGY ROM via Odin using a TGY Pit with Re-Partition option
Phone reboot stuck at "Samsung Logo" ... go to Recovery ... reset data .. phone boot ok !
But keep show S pen input failed...then I reflash via odin without re-parition option... working well now

No you can't boot a lollipop firmware with marshmallow bootloader,first of all make a backup because when you downgrade you have to factory reset your phone
You can find the S5 (G900F) firmware on sammobile,go to select country and search for your country or country that have the latest lollipop build BPE3(like Italy,Germany,Spain),then when you find the firmware you want to download click on it and find the product code(for example the prouct code of the italian fimwares is ITV), now download samfirm open it,and insert: on Model SM-G900F and on Region the product code of the firmware you chose to download(check the CRC32 and Decrypt option and uncheck binary nature because it will include userdata partition,useless in this case and also the firmware will be bigger to download) when it has finished to download extract the firmware zip,you should get a tar.md5 file out of it, download Odin,open it and insert your firmware on AP (uncheck repartition if it's checked) , now factory reset your phone from recovery(it will wipe also the internal sd so be sure to backup it) and reboot it in download mode,plug your phone in the computer , click start on odin and wait until the flashing process end,it will reboot automatically

No it will not trip knox as long as it have the proper signature: if the recovery.img and boot.img are signed from Samsung and you don't modify it because if you do the signature will become invalid(it's long to explain but if you want i'll explain it) it's impossible that knox will be tripped
