hi all, as you can tell, im a noob well, I have a samsung galaxy s4 gti9505 that I rooted with odin WHEN I had a pc, and it just so happens, whenever I root an android, it works but then things start to go wrong like lagging, freezing, drainage of the battery really fast ect. So this time I decided to google how to unroot my phone without a pc to fix my problem. I did that using super su or something which had the unroot option witch I did successfully. But just a few moments ago, I was just checking to see if there were any updates available for my phone because my camera decided to stop working, (well the camera works but when trying to record, a pop-up box appears saying camera failed). So when I tried to update, it said that I cant update because my phone is modified, now as stated above, I am a noob to this subject so please be patient with me trying to comprehend the technical terms use will use hahaha. Can someone please explain to me if it is possible to change the status from custom to normal without the help of a computer? Thanks in advance
help meeh please
Can anyone help?
I don't understand why you want to return back to stock without computer/laptop. In any case following instruction will help you to return your S4 back to stock:
1.First you need to download official firmware for your region from this site: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/
2. Second upload it to phone with Odin http://www.andromint.com/download-odin-latest-version/
If needed you can also use Triangle away to reset custom flash count.
That's all...

Dear all,
I have a similar question.
I've rooted my i9500. I wonder is there any way to roll back my phone like Triangel Away etc. I mean in case of any guarantee situation.
As far as understand, as of now no way to reset.
I hope someone can find a way to reset everyhing to get warranty back.

You don't need to un-root before flash ... you will for sure lose root anyway

Is there any way i can download at more than 200KB's?
http://puu.sh/4YTbL.png
Cause the captcha for the rom download on the link says it's wrong even when i type it right..
I must do something wrong here, because it's not working for me.
I followed the instructions and device still says it is modified and it will not check for updates from samsung.
What is my next step?
Procedure so far:
Gained root acces with ODIN
I did not flash a custom rom.
Used Triangle away to reset counter (counter checked 0 afterwards)
Flashed Galaxy stock firmware downloaded from internet (PHN-I9505XXUDMHB-20130922121848.zip unpacked this once) with ODIN
Furthermore, regarding KNOX reading:
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0X0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0X1
(I suppose the latter means Samsung still is able to see I did something)
Would a hard reset solve this issue do you think?
Hi guys,
So I have to send my phone away for a repair under warranty with the provider (O2) tomorrow, however, when I unrooted and re-flashed the stock ROM, I forgot to use TriangleAway to reset or even check my hidden flash counter.
My phone had updated to 4.3 before I realised, and now I am stuck between a rock and a hard place. I can flash the Root file onto my phone using Odin to allow me to use TriangleAway, but by doing so I am risking voiding my KNOX Warranty. As we know this is irreversible, but then leaving my flash counter at something other than 0, I'm risking my warranty being made void anyway.
I mean, my counter could be 0 anyway, but I doubt it with the several ROMs I flashed to it, including three CyanogenMod ROMs and a GPE ROM.
What do I do? And more importantly, how do I do it to avoid voiding my KNOX Warranty status?
Thanks guys!

Sorry if I wasn't clear, my current status is "KNOX Warranty Void: 0x0". I want to root my phone to run triangle away to reset the flash counter, and then unroot it, all without changing this to 0x1.
Any ideas?

Thank you, I will try that. Do you know if my device status will change to custom by rooting and will TriangleAway change it back to Official?
I did everything you said and it worked perfectly. My phone had a counter of 0 so it was all in vain, but at least I know now. I got my system status back to Official, counter is 0, KNOX is untouched. I just can't update OTA, but that's no problem as long as it looks unmodified ready for it to be sent off for repair under warranty tomorrow. Thanks man!
use xposerd framework and wanam framework to change status to oficjall. this method work and you can check ota updates
Hello,

Private mode not working
I rooted my note 4 today and after several issues the private mode doesn't work. I tried XSecureStorage AND the Wanam implemented option, both didn't work for me. I just used the flashable Zip from wuby and flashed it to my galaxy note 4. I don't know if this zip file was made for galaxy note 4's, however, i flashed it. Now my private mode just seems to be working, cause if i enable it it it says 'private mode working' instead of 'private mode not turned on, please try again'.
But there's no way to access the private mode now. It's like it is turned on, but doesn't work at the same time . This is so weird. Can anybody help me please? :crying:

Well it is not the correct app.. But if you are on stock only rooted rom you just need to wipe data.. If is a custom rom you can use this zip pulled from our rom for note4
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dllkqmwrw9ndy0v/Private_mode_enabler.zip?dl=0
Be aware that if you wipe data you'll loose all in the private partition
Well thank you for your quick response first, wuby. I now wiped data (Yes i am stock rooted and don't have a custom ROM), but an error message occured 'Personal storage stopped'. I read on another forum that it maybe has something to do with the super su? Because when i rooted it and rebooted super su from chainfire asked me if i want to bypass knox. Some user said that private mode isn't working if you click on 'Agree'. But now i can't find that option anymore. Do you have any idea?
I'm sorry. I've rooted many phones and I'm a bit familiar, but still a noob
Any Help would be great.

So flash the zip i sent in last post and should be fine i think.. Regarding disable knox there is no problem.. I am used to actually delete all knox apps and related ones to.. If you are using xposed you need also maybe a fix in /system/build.prop : change from true to false the value for ro.securestorage.support , save the file and to reboot the device.. See if helps in case you use xposed
Also if you are on stock you have to delete the .odex file for personalpage.apk via root browser
Hello again
EDIT:
I deleted the personalstorage.odex file with root browser and flashed your zip file. Still doesn't work
Yes i use xposed and I already changed the the status to 'false'. It works flawless but still no private mode. I tried to change the status to true, used the XSecureStorage module - no effect. Still doesn't work. Is there any log i can supply you with to get a closer look? Only if you don't mind. (you need to tell me how i can get those logs.)
I even tried the wanam Xposed Module and ticked the security hack - no effect. What am i doing wrong?
And i flashed the Zip file via TWRP. The only change that happens then is that the message appears: 'Private mode enabled', but i can't access any files, or drop any files in the PM. I really want it back! I got so much pics of my naked Girlfriend in it I just have to get them back!!

Well if you are on stock you only need to wipe data but you loose all the files inside the private mode to have it working again i think
Hello Wuby,
it didn't work! Don't ask me why I now flashed a custom Rom and everything's working flawless. Got S Health AND private mode again! Yibbie! But thank you anyways for your time and your solutions. Have a nice holiday
Hey guys,
I've searched many times before creating that thread, but found nothing about my question
A while ago, i've rooted my G900F with build number LRX21T.G900FXX1BOB7 .. Now i want to un-root it to be able to get OTA updates, cuz now whenever i try to update, it tells me that the OS on my device has been modified in an unauthorized way.
So, can anyone provide me with the stock kernel for my build? or maybe tell me how to extract it from a stock rom?
Just flash the same stock ROM from sammobile over the top with ODIN
You won't lose anything, but it will return the phone to Official status and allow OTA

Thanks for the fast replay! but are u 100% sure that i won't lose ANYTHING from the device data? cuz there are some important things there ..
If so, are there any options that i should check / un-check in odin ?

Obviously back up anything important before doing anything like this, but yea, it's how I update OTA after rooting / TWRP
I flash the same ROM over the top, boot into Android, update OTA, then root and TWRP again
No options to change in ODIN, leave it default

What are you trying to say ? You want to update the system apps when newer versions found on apkmirror? That doesn't work anymore if your security patch is newer then february. That's why i rooted my phone. I was on the january patch and updated with no problem.. got an OTA and march security patch and suddenly no more updating systemapp..

Not going to work.. you Will have you dissable the apps with an package dissabler.. so they don't appear in your app drawrer
You dont need root or a package disabler you can disable or uninstall any package you want without root all you need is the android debug bridge 1.0.32 and to know what commands to enter i can disable camera apps and even the user intwrface and lockscreen without root which might i add is a major security flaw as anyone's passcode facelock and finger prints can be removed and access gotten to the system with all the files in it i will not be sharing how to do this with you in any way shape of form i am just lucky i found it on my device and have now patched it,
Anyhow back to your problem ill give you a tip however go to the debug bridge and type "adb shell" then "pm list packages" it will display the package names take note of what ones you dont want now type "pm disable -k --user 0 <packagename>" if this last command does not work remove -k from command it will work congrats you have now disabled all the packages you needed,
Also i dunno bout you but before i flashed TWRP and made knoe 0x1 i rooted with CF-AUTO root with stock 6.0 recovery and the knox stayed 0x0 even in recovery ??? As i mentioned only when i flashed with TWRP it went 0x1, possibly just my logic board and a fluke but who knows
Hope this can help someone out if they read it
