I have a rooted galaxy s5 running dalvik runtime and private mode will not enable. I have knox disabled and that might be part of the problem. Is there any way to re enable Knox to to try and fox it that way? Or is there any way to pull my pictures from private mode without having to enable it? Please help!
Private mode working fine in my rooted S5 G900H.
Did you installed xposed? That crashes the private mode..

Nope. It doesn't sound like you read much before plunging in. You should have backed up your pictures beforehand. You will not be able to access your pictures without reenabling private mode. Presuming that you haven't incremented your Knox counter, revert your changes to enable Knox and backup your pictures. Then you can move forward from there.

Ideally, you'd revert changes by restoring a backup of your working system that you made prior to running into problems. Presumably you don't have a backup though or you'd already have solved the problem (hence the value of backups).
If I was you, I'd first do a search to see if anyone has identified where the Knox container encryption keys are stored and back those up if at all possible as those keys will be essential in regaining access to your private mode photos or files.
Then make a list of what you have modified or what you have changed on your phone. And reverse each step until you get back to where your private mode was enabled. If you need help on any specific step, do a forum search first to see if there is an existing thread with details on how to revert a specific item.
If not, then post what you are trying to do and what keywords, etc you tried to find the answer with. There are a lot of knowledgeable people here that will try to help you. But they can't see your phone and can't help you a lot without details, so remember to describe in detail what you've done or attempted, the results, any error messages and so forth.

I posed a new update of my module XSecureStorage it supports now SHealth and Private mode.

Hi,
I would like to verify if I can still recover the photos I had hidden on private mode? I am currently rooted with towelroot. stock firmware and kernel.
I installed Xposed and Greenify modules and just edited the BuildProp : secure.storage.support : to false.
Any solutions on this? How can I get back to the bare stock rom with towelroot working and just without Xposed installed.?
Thanks!

What do you mean by disabling secure storage? I only know how to set the value to false. Is that the same?

The lesson here is that most of us do not backup our data. So remember to backup your photos next time. As to recovering them, you would need to re-enable private mode to do so. And you didn't give us the key piece of information we need to know if that is possible to do.
Is your Knox flag tripped? If it is still 0x0, then you can re-enable private mode by reverting your change to the secure.storage.support property and uninstall or disable xposed. Good luck.
.
simply just uninstall xposed and reboot your device.. then you will be able to turn on private mode again... currently xposed is not compatible with private mode... we are waiting for fix
Found a fix I uninstalled Xposed and disabled wanam turned ro.secure.storage to false and I was able to enter private mode again. Knox is 0x0

You don't need to do that, you can use my new module XSecureStorage, it supports SHealth and Private mode.
Hello, I'm pretty new to all this but I was hoping I could get an explanation/ solution to what is going on.
I recently rooted my galaxy s5 and everything was working fine, sometime after installing xposed framework I noticed I could not access my private mode pictures. It would say unable to enable, please try again. I looked around on here for a while and believe it has something to do with knox.
I checked out this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/mod-enable-private-mode-knox-0x1-t2904723 however I am unsure exactly what it is I need to do.
If anyone can help me out with either a fix or a way to retrieve the pictures stuck in private mode that would be great.
Sorry I'm not well versed in this knowledge.

recently i have rooted my sm-a500h running on lollipop(5.0.2) without getting any backup data
now i see that i cant enter private mode to get my media files back
rooted using :
Odin3 v3.09
CF-Auto-Root-a53g-a53gxx-sma500h.tar.md5
if these might help :
after root , rebooting , boots only to recovery mode and i have to select "reboot system now"
wifi cant turn on
the main issue is getting my private stuff back....
Update1 :
I flashed the samsung stock ROM on the device and wifi is back but now I lost my data connection!
I don't know why but when I turn the data connection on ,the data service connection won't seem to work .
but it's not like wifi problem I mentioned before, because in that case I couldn't even turn it on!
And about private data which i managed to retrieve by adb ... I think i won't be able to make any use of it since the encryption key is removed after flash. maybe it could end better if they saved the key on my Samsung account :|

you can probably fix this by flashing stock boot.img. but i would like to know how to make private mode work even when flashing auto root kernel.

Solution for getting back your data from private mode > :silly:
if your device is rooted then you good to go i don't know if this method works on unroot device but at least you can try this > use app store and install an app called [ Build Prop Editor ] then open it and search for the file ( ro.securestorage.support)and change the value of this file " True to False " u need to grant this app with super user for saving file again in root system, then restart your device and turn on "private mode" i hope you will turn it on back.

I have the same problem, did you fix that?
Hello
This afternoon, I'm trying to activate the Private Mode for my S7 Edge. At first, it does not let me enable it after I turn it off.
Then I performed a factory reset. Right now, the phone does let me turn the private mode on and off, but there is no option for me to transfer video or pictures into private mode. I press and hold the file, but in the More Option, there is not anything which let me move the file into private mode.
Is there any solution for this? Please help
Have you rooted your phone? Rooting triggers knox which makes it useless and to my knowledge, private mode uses knox. I kniw for certain secret mode in browser does use knox. Once knox is triggered then these features become unavailable. The reason for this is because root drastically weakens knox security so samsung purposefully kill knox on root. Thats the risk you have to take if you root. If you havent rooted then i have no idea what is going on but this is my first thoughts based on what you have said

Yes, it "turns on" but cannot be used.

the op probably is rooted and just did not put that information in their. i had my phone rooted and was testing private mode and it did not work but then i went back to all stock phone. i had private mode back.
ecg803, can you actually put anything in to private though? Switching it on or off doesnt mean its usable. For example, go to gallery, select an item, click more in top right, and is the 'move to private' option available? I agree with toastido that although you can switch it on and off, the actual ability to put anything in there should be, ahem, toast
yes i can.

Im puzzled. You are the only person i have come across to have it working after tripping knox. Dont suppose you have any numbers for the UK national lottery tomorrow?
I had same problem with S5 which is unrooted but Twrp was installed which triggers Knox counter. Now Marshmallow 6.0.1 is not letting Samsung Browser to open private tab unlike on my S4 which is rooted and has 5.0.1 lollipop. It is a Marshmallow + Samsung scandal.
Hi, let me just get this straight.
I installed TWRP on my J730G and then installed SuperSU afterwards. Tried the available custom roms I can download from here, but unfortunately, there was none that's stable and not buggy for the J730G-DS at the moment.
I had to flash stock firmware from odin and then just installed TWRP and SuperSU alone.
Now, I'm always getting this "Security Notice" notification
(screenshot attached) telling me there was unauthorized actions have been detected and I need to restart.
Restarted my phone several times but Im still getting the notification.
Can anyone help me get rid of this please? Thanks!
Device is a SM-J730G/DS

Correction: The warning appears after rooting. Therefore, after reflashing stock firmware via odin , the warning disappeared but it came back when I rooted the phone.
Managed to get rid of it with the help of @h.nocturna 's guide from the Galaxy S7 Edge: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-s7-edge/how-to/guide-post-root-common-bugs-fixes-t3427600
Bug #3: Notification warning that system has been modified.
Fix #1: Disable com.samsung.android.securitylogagent & com.tmobile.pr.adapt using your favorite package disabler. This will hide all notifications associated with this app as well as the root check that you might have encountered.
Fix #2: This fix requires Xposed. You can follow the instructions to install Xposed HERE.
Then install the Xposed module NotifyClean, activate the module, and reboot the phone. You will then use this app to block the notification under the package com.samsung.android.securitylogagent by clicking on the package so that it is highlighted red. The notification should disappear!
Note: This app can also be used to hide the icon for WiFi Calling if it's annoying you. You can still use the WiFi calling function while hiding the notification.

I think in new samsung devices all roms and root developers say in the steps now you void your warrenty
So you are responsble for what you doing here
Sorry to say that
All you can do try to flash full firmware of your country may be fix samsung pay bot 100% sure
@anurag hacker
since your knox become 0x1, your warranty is void and it effect you based knox app like securefolder, sbrowser private mode, samsung health and also your samsung pay. If you want use the samsung pay you can try search in xda thread about mod samsung pay that can use with rooted device.
Edit: you can try use custom kernel that have fake knox.
There's a simple trick to get s health working

Root is far more valuable than some silly secure folder or Samsung pay. Which in any case can all be re-enabled with the right mods.
If you want something secure, store it in the cloud.
If you don't mind about modifying the ROM, then delete this Security Log Agent. It's the part of the Knox suite by the way.
Honestly I wouldn't implement Knox on ANY Samsung phone except for some really serious corporate devices. It's useless. As if Google's partly ugly security patches were not enough, we're also having Knox on our heads.
