Hello, is this possible, to flash custom firmware without knox 0x1? I saw somewhere that someone wrote about how the ODIN, but I do not know if it's true.

first of all this is the wrong forum to ask questions and secondly look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-root-triggering-knox-2nd-method-t2843044
i guess that is the answer to your question on flashing without tripping knox. on the side note, next time pls search
Sorry and thanks

Hello! This might be somewhat of a "noob" question, but I'm curious as to what trips the KWV counter. Will flashing ANYTHING through Odin trip the counter? My counter is still at 0x0 and my variety of root privileges are very limited. I can't OC my GPU/CPU, I can't really customize the looks of my phone and it makes me sad :crying: It'll be really helpful to know what really trips the knox so I'll be able to avoid them
Stickied thread two above yours has everything you could ever want to know about Knox.

Oh alright thanks! Didn't see that haha
Hey there.
I have two questions, where I did not find an answer using the search function. Please excuse me, if they are already answered somewhere else.
1) Is there a way to pretend that the knox warranty void flag is still 0x0? Can my phone just display 0x0, no matter what the actual value is?
2) Would somebody let me know, what would happen, if I flash 4.2.2 firmware using Odin? There was no KNOX on 4.2.2, so there shouldn't be any flags. I guess there will just be some problems on updating to 4.3, right?
Best wishes,

If you already flash with bootloader 4.3 jelly bean
It's hard to go back to 4.2.2
Im guessing your on 4.3 with knox 0x1....is that correct or not?
If so you wont be able to go back to 4.2.As far as I know youll just get fail in odin.
I have successfully rooted my GS4 and I now want to flash custom roms. By flashing them will knox be tripped? If so how do I flash a rom without tripping it?

If you used CF-Auto-Root, you've already tripped the Knox flag. That's mentioned in its thread in the development forum.

Welp nevermind I guess it did get tripped. So does it matter now if I put a custom rom on my sprint gs4?

Not as far as the warranty is concerned. Find something you like and give it a try!
Is this true? Supposedly with this program for windows the official 5.0.1 lollipop rom N910FXXU1BOB4 can be rooted (maybe without tripping knox???)

when I said "without tripping knox" i meant: without increasing the knox counter to 1 and thus invalidating the warranty.
So if it works it could be the first method to root preserving the warranty.
I haven't tried though.
Anyone?

does it says anywhere that it won't trip knox?
i've looked but haven't seen anything about that.
so why would you think about something like that? if it would be possible it would've been huge news everywhere
so i think it's safe to assume you thought completely wrong about that it won't trip knox :good:

we don't know if it trips knox until someone tries it and post it the results here.

Dear sxjg23. Be our guest and give it a try.
Please let us know the result.
Nowhere to read if it don't trip Knox. It looks the same as the Kingo root server based method. My advice : root with Chainfire's solution via Odin. Yes, it trips Knox but it'a a safe and proven method.
I've tried both methods of SRSRoot, which says it's rooted but actually it's not. Some apps (root checker, titanium backup) complain it's not rooted.
Maybe I'm doing something bad.
I'll use the well-proven cf-root method instead.
I saw a post on android central and a guy said he was able to root his note 3 with out tripping knox, he said that it didn't trip because he didn't flash a custom rom, and since SuperSU promps you if you want to disable knox when you download it. So my question is do you need a custom rom to root the galaxy s8 and does SuperSU actually stop knox from tripping?

Bro it was the first knox now it's smarter. You flash something that is not Samsung and your warranty is gone.
