system status = official
knox warranty void = 0 X 1
is that mean my device is Used ?
because i bought it as a new :\
i took it to the Vendor and he said it is new and refused to change it ​

If your knox is 0x1 then its been used or tampered with. Are you in the EU?

thnx but i am in turkey , but do you say that the phone is Certainly used ?

Yes, the phone wouldnt ship with a knox status of 0x1. The phone has definitely been used or tampered with. Tell him to swap it or you'll involve trading standards.

I think you bought an export set meant for Europe countries.
I did buy as well as some of my friends. Few of us got KNOX 0x0, but unfortunately 3 of us got KNOX 0x1.
That's why, if any of my friends want to buy export set again, I would suggest them to check in front of the supplier/retailer (before payment) by goin into download mode. If got trip, don't pay.

true my phone is european , it is have a Label written in spanish :/
but i bought it as a new phone but seems like the vendor is cheating

In which country do you live? In several countries like Germany there's a warranty by law. So if your device broke within the first 6 months after buying you can return it to the shop, where you've bought it. Independent of the knox status this warranty is valid in case of hardware defects.
If you don't have that warranty, you should try it to send it back to Samsung. What do you have to lose? Your phone is broken and unusable anyway.

Don't necessary need to accept this ...
If flashing stock Samsung firmware does not solve your problem, it must be HW and then you should be covered bye EU law!
You also flash wrong firmware, claim it was a update through KIES that failed and play dump for the rest

Flash CF-Autoroot with ODIN... It takes literally 5 seconds and doesn't (potentially) share your device information with China...

Hi mate,
but you want root without tripping knox?
if yes, you can't do it because you are on 4.4.2 know just you said.
but if you don't care about the warranty void and still knox 0x1,
go ahead and follow the advice of @ultramag69.
find CF-Autoroot and flash it with ODIN, it's the fastest and easiest mode to root your device.
and if you want flash custom roms, look for CWM or TWRP compatible recoveries to do that.

If you want to root, I recommend doing your research to gain some confidence. But as long as you follow instructions (on a working method, of couse) you will be fine.
As for your warranty, if you don't run a custom kernel or recovery it won't void. (Only viable for some methods such as towelroot).

Towelroot is the best way

software update

I rooted my s5 with towelroot and my knox count is still 0x0
now if I try to check for software update I get this

so rooting is the reason? cz I thought keeping the knox count 0 is what mattered.and how should I solve this keeping the count 0?
Turn device in download mode and check Knox waranty void.
Also Xposed module Wanam can fake system status to official

I'm not sure why you are surprised? it's well known that Samsung doesn't sanction rooting. If they did, we wouldn't need exploits like Towel root to root our phones.
When you check for an update, the update utility has a quick look at your system to see if the system files are as expected and discovers that key files have changed (because you rooted). And insists that you go back to stock before the update proceeds. If you think about it a moment, the message you received makes perfect sense.
It's questionable if you should update at all if you have a rooted system. If you do, then you ought to be doing it manually in a controlled manner. Which is to say that you don't let the system check for updates itself. Instead download the new firmware, then use something like Mobile Odin Pro to write the .tar file, choosing everroot, inject superuser and wipe cache.
.
wildalan, ,aybe stupid question - you received this information before downloading the update or just before installation after downloading the OTA?
You should download samsung kies and then connect your phone .wait a while.then click software update....it will download and install latest update.it may take a while and u will have latest software updated without knox tripping

Is there any chance that an oreo update will make knox 0x0 again ??

hi all. Is there any chance that an oreo update will make knox 0x0 again ?? I am asking this becouse u know what problems does the warranty void. i installed from odin uk btu version of official sam firmware and have access to updates but hardly passed through the s health problem. i searched for solutions but only hope is if oreo will do any trick. so please if anyone has any info about that reply
Forget about it. Once tripped there is no way to reset Knox.
Nope, knox will not be restored by a firmware upgrade. Do not get your hopes up. It isn't being restored in the Oreo betas aswell.
I think the only way that knox could be restored is due to a mistake by Samsung

No. I won't say 100% but 98. Some one may crack it today tomorrow or in 10p years but do not get your hopes up
knox is hardware based. 99.99999999% uncrackable
No. Knox trigger it's physical and not a software solution. It's an fuse on your phone mainboard. It's literally a physical damage. No software update will fix it
the only way to reset it is by changing out the main board or repairing the fuse that is blown out.

Good luck with that. That e-fuse is located inside SoC.
And about replacing the mainboard... One should pay for a new mainboard, probably spending some money to pay someone to replace it in order to avoid being needed to pay to repair another defect? Does it sounds logical to you?
A motherboard for S8 costs £320-360. Plus another 50ish quid for labour. Would take you to £370-410. You can buy another S8 with those money
