[Q]Knox 0x1, possible to upgrade to 4.4.2 Official Stock ROM?

Hello.
Because I do not remember correctly, I have knox 0x1, and I read somewhere it is not possible to upgrade to official roms if knox has been triggered.
Can I update my phone to 4.4.2 with knox triggered?

Yes you can via Odin

Knox doesn't affect using official stock roms. It's only for warranty purposes and for the actual knox container itself.
As Dahdoul said, grab it and flash via ODIN.
Be warned. Once you upgrade there's no returning to 4.3 as the bootloader locks you into KK.

is root and custom recovery such as philz touch available for 4.4.2?

Root and recovery are available yes but not PhilZ only CWM by chenglu works currently

I see in your signature, that you are already on KitKat, Is it worth the upgrade?
Did you notice any increase in perfomance?
Any cool features?
Do you have more RAM free?
Do apps work properly?
Any new samsung apps (blotware) worth mentioning?

Yup a lot smoother for sure
Nothing really new that stands out to be cool
Yes ram is up to 2.7GB now
I haven't encountered any issues with apps, including some Wanam tweaks
Standard Samsung stuff which I have removed with TB

One last question I forgot to ask:
Do I have to wipe/reset to factory defaults?
I don't want to lose my settings and programs.
If I have to reset to factory defaults, is there any program that back ups settings?

Sorry for my stupidness, I did not notice the last three letters in the file before the extension. The one I have downloaded is "N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_XEO" which was downloaded from samfirmware but as you can see, the one you posted including the one I posted and there others I have seen contain "OXX" (N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_XEO) and I got confused.
The one I have is good to go right?

Yup :good:

Sorry, really really last question:
How did you root?
Did you root by flashing n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.6-kitkat(0113).tar with odin?
Because I flashed it, it booted fine to CWM, it asked me for root, I pressed yes, I installed & tried SuperSU by chainfire and SuperSU by clockworkmod and both were unable to find root.

I don't think that there would be an official update to it because it doesn't even have a 4.3 update.

is it possible to downgrade from android l back to 4.4.2 on 900F ?

I tryed to do so in odin, no success.
I want 4.4.2 back ...
Thanks !
Edit : BaRTaSs88 answer is working ! , i tryed it with another stock 4.4.2 and it worked too.

Dude, try to flash it with odin and this one-file stock ROM:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712462437
After you flash, you will get boot loop. Then remove the battery for few seconds and put it again and go to stock recovery and do wipe data/factory reset.
If I did it, so you can too.

I want to go back, too. Will this trigger Knox?

Not possible to reset it on any Samsung Device shipped with Android 4.4.4+ There is a section on this somewhere if I find it I'll share it. But the accepted theory at the moment is that Knox is tripped as we know by custom os installations or rooting it's believed that this triggers an eFuse which is impossible to rectify.

You can uninstall samsung knox, only by going to google play store OR galaxy store
And search for knox and uninstall it.
