Hi to all. I have quastion. Can I flash stock android 5.0 on my G900F rooted with towelroot and knox flag 0x0 with mobile odin pro? Mobile odin pro have option everoot. That means to root stock rom when start flashing procedure. Then I think need to flash modem and bootloader from stock 5.0. What your opinion? Can I flash and root stock 5.0 and keep knox 0x0?

Hi,
i am seeing that currently people are recommending kingo root or vroot, that was claimed that this won't trigger knox flag at all.
After rooting. if i were to flash any custom ROM, will this trigger knox flag?
Thank!

Yes it will. Flashing a custom Recovery and/or a Rom will trip Knox. Kingo and vroot are not full roots. The phone is rooted enough to allow you to customize the stock rom and for applications that require root to work. If you want to flash custom roms, you might as well use the CF Auto Root method and get a full root. That will trip knox but so will what you want to do.
I'm sure it will be trip by KNOX. Keep calm until developer launch triangle away for Note 3 dude.

Hi guys. I currently have Mk8 BTU (from Great Britain) and I want to update to ML6 ROM ( for Romania). Does this triggers the knox flag to 0x1? I want to flash via odin from Sammobile. Thanks!

Any advice?
Not possible to downgrade to KNOX-disabled firmwares/bootloaders (An attempt sets 0x1)
Even if you flash a KNOX-enabled firmware via odin (e.g. the latest fw) knox will be set to 0x1
Flashing unsigned or modified images via odin will set knox to 0x1
Samsung stated, resetting the flag is impossible
KNOX is mandatory and can not be completely removed
Warranty Void is no counter, it is a flag (0,1) it was never seen 0x2 or so
Mirroring all partitions from a clean 0x0-Device to a 0x1-Device via JTAG produces an unfunctional device (reversible by restoring the 0x1 partitions on the phone)
KNOX bootloader verifies signatures of kernels and recoveries. No custom ones possible without voiding the knox warranty
Ok, thanks

As the title says I would like to revert back to Official Status, remove root and stay on Knox 0x0
I have 4.3 version, Knox 0x0, and I have reset to factory defaults and I do not have root now.
As knox is 0×0 it means you are not rooted.Just flash official firmware will solve your status.flash it wia odin.

No. False. Knox flag DOES NOT mean you're not rooted if it's 0x0.
The only times this is true is if root using a method that rewrites your recovery, such as CF-Auto-Root.
The only things that trip knox are unsigned recoveries (ANY custom recovery) and custom kernels (ANY custom kernel).

Ohh..tnx for correcting me.!But I think the problem is status of device. As knox is 0×0 there is no problem.knox is not triggered. Flashing a stock firmware changes the status custom to official. Please correct me if I am understanding wrong!

Correct. Flashing a full stock firmware AFTER a factory reset and wipe should return to official status, officially.

Flashing anything custom will trip KNOX
EDIT - Tell a lie, I believe there is a custom(ish) stock(ish) ROM that can be flashed without tripping knox, the thread title says KNOX0x0

Hi guys just a quick question.
I am on currently on the 1st build of Kitkat 4.4.2 (G900FXXU1ANCE) on my s5 g900f rooted with towel root and Knox 0x0. I prefer to stay on Kitkat but want to update it to the latest 4.4.2 Kitkat update (G900FXXU1ANI3)
I wanted to know if i download the firmware from sammobile and place the zip file on my sd card, can i use Flashfire with the inject SuperSU option to flash it to my phone, and if that would maintain the root and knox 0x0 for me?
I am not a fan of pc odin. Thanks

Bootloader can't be flashed with Flashfire as of this time.
And you need to update it in order to ANI3 firmware to boot.
Your only option is ODIN mate.
Cheers!
