Once you root your phone, there is no way to change KNOX status back to 0x0 as of now (and probably forever)
There is a way to fix Private mode after rooting.
A quick search will lead you to these :
Rooting the Sprint Variant and running Xposed/private mode/S-health
IS Private Mode NOT Working for you after Rooting? - Try This... - TEST

I've tried the method but still not working (private mode)
If i flash the stock rom again will it working??

No, it will not.
If you don't want to use Xposed, you need to edit system files.

What is xposed??

Reactivation Lock not working after root

hello guys,
I rooted my Note 4 SM-N910C yesterday, and everything was fine until now. I saw that reactivation Lock(can't flash via odin when it's on) was off, so I tried to turn it on, but it was not working. I tried everything, but without sucess. I tried to flash a stock firmware from sammobile, and after that, it was working, so I rooted again and It's not working anymore.
So, someone knows a way to root and get it working? Did you have this problem too?
help me :/

Same here, maybe installing xposed and putting a request for a module? although s health and private mode don't work on my note 4 either (xposed running)

this is a kernel related, I think. Everybody says that it still working on Snapdragon's Note 4, but here at Exynos, you can't activate it.

I dont think it is that, I have a friend with the same model that us, and the activation works on his phone :s
So, guys, have anyone solved this problem?
I also have rooted Note 4 and neither "Remote controls" nor "reactivation lock" can I activate...
reactivetion lock not working
I also encountered a similar case but only used through l launch , give me one new idea when it dies in it :good:
Guys, has anybody solved this problem?
Here I am, rooted GS5 with MM fw, before root it worked, as it did with lollipop and kitkat.
After root it doesn't turn on anymore, I reflashed stock recovery too. I guess it's related to knox 0x1, with rooted knox 0x0 kitkat and lollipop I could enable it.
Or maybe it's kernel related, so systemless root with stock kernel could be the solution
Good news, after reflashing a stock firmware I could enable RL back. So it's not knox related but root related. Tomorrow I'll try with systemless root

I think what is needed it to copy your stock recovery from an official touchwiz rom and flash it. You will need a tar.gz converter to flash it via odin. Sometime ago I tried it where your root remains but you have a stock recovery. I believe all those Samsung security features like Reactivation Lock relies on a stock recovery and not a custom like ( TWRP/CWM)

I reflashed stock recovery but still no luck. It's root related, or better kernel related, as someone posted above. I'm on systemless root and it shows "warranty bit kernel" message at boot. With rooted lollipop and stock kernel/recovery it worked

Really, so how can I do the same on Marshmallow. Where can I obtain a systemless root method for my SM-N910H Note 4 ???

Just flash supersu beta via twrp
You must have stock boot.img, I suggest reflashing the entire stock firmware if you did some modifications

Look...i am currently rooted. I have twrp 3.0 and i flashed super su beta. I dont have any modified or special kernels of that sort...just root. So are you telling me all i need to do is flash the original touchwiz boot.img from the marshmallow rom file ( i will have to go convert it to a Tar file) ???.... And that will give me the ability to stay rooted and be able to use reactivation lock again ???

Ok..thats what i thought.......its best we stay without it then. Or go back completely stock and unrooted to use the feature.
Hello, seen there is no new news about this.. Has anyone got around this?
Can we root and activate the reactivation lock now?
Thanks

Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F Knox 0x1 (3) ~HELP~

Hi guys I would like to ask what is the cause of this knox trip? I tried to root my SM-G900F using towelroot but it says that my phone isn't supported so I guess this won't be the reason why my knox becomes 0x1 (3). I didn't do anything on my Samsung S5 aside from downgrading to kitkat 4.4.2 ANI2 from Lolipop BOH4. Any idea or suggestions guys? If there would be no chance to turn it back to 0x0 then can you suggest to me a good and stable ROM for my Samsung S5 and rooting as well? Thanks and have a nice day.
For unknown reasons, Knox sometimes tripps 0x1 during update via Kies.
I've rooted my S5 via towelroot but on rom ANE2 - the problem can be you didn't install SuperSu and block Knox.
You can try SixPerience - this is one of my favourite rom.
Very good is OmegaROM, too, but don't try KtoonseZ Kernel - it damaged my GPS receiver :/

Try again, I was using stock ROM & kernel (Rooted) = KNOX Counter tripped = no Private Mode
Update: I've factory reset my phone and still can't get Private Mode to work. Used to work perfectly fine prior to 5.1.1?

It doesn't work anymore because KNOX Counter is tripped. You can't revert it.
sorry, double post
you could try with this: Original Samsung SE enforced kernel.
This is ONLY for N910F.

Bull****
You can have knox tripped, custom kernel and private mode fully functional
as you can see in the screenshot below

I don't know if such attitude is necessary or even allowed in this forum.
I'm talking based on my experience & others.
I was using rooted stock ROM & kernel but Private mode is disabled forever right after KNOX counter tripped.
If you can enable Private Mode while using custom kernel + tripped KNOX why don't you help OP instead?
I had mine rooted and Private Mode worked on 5.0 and without Xposed. I had the original Kernel rooted by chainfire so nothing fancy! Not sure what's changed in 5.1.1

Lollipop 5.1.1 can't be rooted ordinary way.
You need to use custom Permissive Kernel to be able to ROOT it.
It seems that your root attempt was failed (but no error message).
i succesfully rooted...even checked with "root checker" but was not able to make any change with the build.prop....

and yes it will trigger knox!
Is there a way to unroot if it needs to go to a repair,and is there a way to it back to 0x0

Yes, full unroot using SuperSU after reversing any system file changes / or flash a stock ROM again
No, once you trip KNOX to 0x1, that's it forever
Probably a stupid question but do I need to unlock the bootloader on my 901F before rooting via this method?
If so what's the current prefered method for this please?
Cheers,
Sean.

i want help unrooting galaxy s8

Hi
i remember unrooting my galaxy s6 by flashing stock rom with all its files, i mean the csc file and the others ? , but i dont know if that method is still working because of the new security updates, knox and whatnot
am really bad at this, but i just wanna be able to use bixby and it says i have to update my software
so, how is it done ?
thank u all
Just flash Stock Samsung Rom.
Knox can't be changed however. That's gone forever.
True
in quick you can't
root access can be removed by flashing stock firmware but as knox is tripped when rooting, there is no way to reset knox counter.
if you flash stock firmware, no root access of course but you won't be able to use Samsung pay, Samsung health, secure folder and samsung pass, and this is permanent and forever, as these apps check knox status and not root access. I suggest you to keep using custom rom as you will be able to use apps like samsung health and maybe samsung pay
Depending on your rom, you should still be able to use bixby.
What variant you're on?
