Preparing phone to go to Samsung Repair Center (Tripped Knox)

I manually installed the latest Samsung ROM (4.4.2).
I have also rooted the device.
Therefore, I believe I may have tripped Knox.
My phone needs a repair by a Samsung Repair Center.
What can I do to wipe as much of the evidence as possible?

You can start downloadmode and see if your knox flag is 0x1. If so, there's no way to set it back to 0x0. But in many countries, you can use your warranty also with knox 0x1.

Current Binary: Custom (it's not custom, it's Samsung's latest ROM but I flashed it using Odin)

So there's no chance to get back to knox 0x0. But as I see you're from the UK, samsung has to repair your phone under warranty I think.

[Q] Odin shows official status - No OTA

Hi,
I just flashed 5.0 (N9005XXUGBOD3 - Not Rooted) via Odin from rooted 4.4.1.
Odin Mode now shows:
Product Name: SM-N9005
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
Reactivation Lock: Off
Knox Warranty Void: 0x1 (0) - I know this cannot be changed, I used to run CM
Qualcomm Secure Boot: Enable (CSB)

UDC Start
But Settings > General > About Device > Status shows Custom and I cannot get OTA.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

It is matched as far as I can tell. I cannot link you to a picture properly yet due to not having 10 posts.

No, it's not. BTU is United Kingdom code country. And the latest firmware 5.0 is this ONE. Do you have installed it?

Hi,
I already had this installed but re-flashed using your link just in case - I still have the same issue
Any ideas?
Thanks!

You have no SM-G900F, you have an SM-G900P.
So just download and flash an appropriate firmware.
