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.

Got an S4 i9505 and I believe it was running 4.2.2. I rooted it with CF Auto Root and everything was fine,
A few days ago, little one messed around and accidently managed to install 4.3 update. Now wifi cannot be enabled giving an error that "your device security has blocked an action that is not permitted"
Clicked on SuperSU and it said that knox has been found and some applications may not work,,,,,decided to disable it and disabling it was successful.
Even now when I try to turn the wifi on, it doesnt work but dont get the above message anymore.
Any help would be appreciated as it's driving me mad.
Thanks
Anyone? Please make some suggestion.

Hi ,
My first option would be to try the so call wifi fix, read here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025
select the same wifi fix as the modem you have installed in your phone ( read first , ask there if there is any doubts)
Second option would be to flash stock rom again and root .
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.

& how do you recommend reverting these changes? sorry i'm a newbie to this and i appreciate your help immensely!

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.

Maybe my private mode stopped working after installing xposed framework.
After Searching a lot for the Private mode fix , i got few zip files. But none worked.
After flashing zip my Private mode and Finger Print service broke with > Unfortunately Private Mode and Fingerprint has stopped.
I had few Photos stored in Private Mode and had no back up of it.
Finally I did this, and it worked for me. Even you guys can try this out.
Backup these files first:
/data/privatemode -------> This folder contains all the files locked in private mode
/data/system/fingerprintpassword.key
/data/system/personalbackuppin.key
/data/system/personalfingerprintpassword.key
/data/system/personalpattern.key
also
/data/system/users/privatemode_edk_1000
and uninstall xposed framework and its apk with its uninstaller, you will find it in this site itself.
Now comes the point of luck, Software update
I was thinking to finally update my software if there was any, luckily I checked and i had a software update. But it cannot be updated from mobile as it has been rooted.
Download: Samsung SmartSwitch/Samsung Kies and use it for software update.
After the update root your phone with Auto-root and then restore the files you've back up of.
Before that have a Nandroid backup of all your data for safety.
I am not sure how this works out for you guys, but i guess its worth trying once.
ALL THE BEST , TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK. :good:
Hope it helps you.
Currently On Samsung Note 4 SM-N910G
So I've searched the forums for a while now, and being the noob I am, I do not know what i am looking for. I was trying to root my daughters tablets (Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 8''). I used the CF auto root. Everything list on his download page matched perfectly with what the tablet said in the about device tab (I'm talking about the model number and all the version number were exact. So i use Odin and everything went perfectly. The tablet went through its steps and Odin said PASS in big green letters. But it got stuck in the screen that says "Samsung". So I let it sit there for a while and finally i held the power button and it rebooted. It booted up fully but it kept popping up that all the apps were stopping. Touchwiz and all the storage "has stopped" along with tons of other apps. So i can't go home to get to the apps. I can go into settings and do stuff, but I cant get anything else to work. Is there anything i can go to get Touchwiz to work so that I can navigate? I can provide more info if anyone is willing to help me. Please this my daughters favorite toy in the world. I'll donate $15 to anyone who can help me get the tablet back functional. Thanks! I am such an idiot. I have no idea what I am doing and no clue why I decided to root her tablet.

*UPDATE*
I was able to do a factory reset and start over. Although still have the custom kernel warning when it reboots. Is there a way to get rid of that? Thanks!
Do not use CF Auto Root for now, use chainfire's latest Systemless Root, in this time of writing, i can't find the link to his latest systemless root zip, flash it using a custom recovery.
About that kernel warning, it means that you modified something OR rather the CF Auto Root you flashed in the kernel, this happens also when you flash a custom firmware. You can't remove it. But beware if this warning comes out whenever you restart or power on the device, you might have triggered the KNOX status to 0x1 and that means your warranty is now borked and sammy can use it whenever you want a repair from them to deny your request.
I recently have rooted my s6+ G928C with build number G928CXXS3CQH1.
Everything work fine except for secret mode in Samsung internet that I knew not working with rooted device.
Although, I didn't find anypost that said samsung pass also not working, I just want to ask thak anyway to make
samsung pass working along with root? Thanks in advanced.
Please help me, any custom kernal or way to fix this?
As far as I know it will never work... but you could try magisk hide but dont get your hopes up.
Flash the superuser uninstall zip when you want to use it and reroot when you need root? Or get magisk set up so you pass safetynet
