[Q] Note 3 working with having 'recovery is not seandroid enforcing' on boot up

Hello XDA, I started this thread looking for help if this is normal. I have sucessfully installed the following.
CF AutoRoot (LINK)
Philz Touch Recovery (LINK) (WARNING thie file gets auto downloaded when you click this link)
STOCK S5 Fully Clean & Fast, ROM by fahad (LINK)
Now when I get to the model splash screen, (you know the one that says you phones model and model code) I have 3 lines that appear above it saying.
recovery is not seandroid enforcing
SET WARRANTY BIT: kernal (if booting to the rom) or recovery (if booting to the custom recovery)
Now my phone is fully working I did have issues flashing the custom recovery, but once I did successfully flash it and got it to work I started to get these messages above on the top left corner of the screen, and was wondering if I should worry about it. Other than that, everything else is working 100%.
here is the some specs that may be needed.

Fully normal.
This just means you've broken the "seal of warranty". KNOX is just telling you and the retailer that the phone has been tampered with.

Have I bricked my Note 4?

Hi guys. I'm having some problems with my Note 4. I previously have rooted the phone, but tried to use SuperSU to unroot it. I was getting errors loading some apps telling me that phone was still rooted so I attempted to do a factory reset on the phone. Somewhere along the road I appear to have messed up the firmware.
Basically, when powered on my phone states "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." If I open the recovery menu on my phone (power+home+vol. down) it says
ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)
PRODUCT NAME: SM-N910F
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
SYSTEM STATUS: CUSTOM
REACTIVATION LOCK: OFF
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 (4)

UDC START
I have tried using Kies (both versions) which say that my phone is not recognised in the emergency firmware recovery options, and the firmware upgrade option fails.
I have also tried using Odin using firmware N910FXXU1COJ3_N910FO2U1COJ1_O2U and N910FXXU1BOC3_N910FO2U1BOC1_O2U.
I am totally stuck for ideas. Is my phone bricked?
Unfortunately I can't upload screen shots due to my account status.

Do you use Stock Kernel or custom Kernel?

I'm not sure. I assume stock.

Judging for your answer I assume that you are kinda "new" to this ROOT & flashing ROM stuff?
Am I correct?
If you are "new" to this stuff....I suggest you read & re-read everything before "plunging deep into the abyss"
Now the answer,
ROOT & Stock 5.1.1 Lollipop Kernel is a NO GO!
By updating your KitKat 4.4.4/Lollipop 5.0.1 into Lollipop 5.1.1 (BTW COJ stock update IS Lollipop 5.1.1) will remove your ROOT access.
Re-ROOTing it will cause a bootloop....IF you didn't change your kernel into a "Permissive" one.
Try flashing a custom permissive kernel if you are going to keep ROOTed.
It'll fix your problem.

Download ODIN, then go to samfirmware and download some software for your phone. Use Odin to flash whatever firmware back onto your phone and start again.

Flash an Custom Recovery with Odin. This post can help you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-neo/development/recovery-t-r-p-samsung-galaxy-s3-neo-gt-t2906840 In the third post, you must use the Odin Methode
Then, load an Rom at your external sdcard, at example resurection remix. Start your Phone in the recovery mode with [home] [Volumen up] [Power] and wipe dalvik, cache and data(easily of wipe and swish) and than install the rom

Thanx all..i tried all of your solutions.but finally i flashed stock firmware that have multifiles.that was helped me.:thumbup::beer:

When you have got an functional system, than you can install an custom recovery system, for Backups etc.
But when you will make it at the Rom, the rom must be rooted. The Tutorial is at my first post.

Note 4 - Loops on boot

Hi there!
I've looked all over the internet to solve my problem. I've tried many things to solve it but nothing seems to work.
Here's my problem:
After a failed installation of a custom rom on my Galaxy Note 4, it won't boot anymore. When I start my phone it says:
Kernel is not seandroid enforcing
Set warranty bit: kernel
Then it shows the 'Samsung'-logo. After that it reboots and so on.
If I go into recovery (Team Win Recovery Project v2.8.4.0):
I can acces all the data along with the external micro sd card. When I put a zip on it, I can install it, but that doesn't solve the problem. Using the internet I've tried these zips:
- Brick_Loop_FIX_afterRestoringBackup.zip
- cm-13-20151101-UNOFFICIAL-hlte.zip (this one didn't work)
- N910FXXU1C0H4-Deodexed_alexndr.zip
Wiping data or cleaning cache doesn't work either.
The only thing on my internal storage seems to be:
/sdcard TWRP
When I go into download mode:
ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)
PRODUCT NAME: SM-910F
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
REACTIVATION LOCK: OFF
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 (1)
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB)

SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE
UDC START
Phone information:
Model: SM-N910F
SSN: - N910FGSMH
Solution I'm looking for:
Just a working phone. Doesn't matter what ROM or root/non-root
Is there anyone who can help me solve this problem. I've tried a lot but nothing seems to work / I do not have the right knowledge.
Thanks in advance!!

Have you tried flashing an official Samsung ROM using Odin? You can get one here (filter by country)

which version of custom rom were you trying to flash? 5.0.1 or 5.1.1? i suggest you download the same build stock firmware from sammobile and flash it with odin, kernel is seandroid enforcing means you have an unofficial kernel/rom/recovery and is nothing serious...first boot into recovery do factory reset, clear cache then without booting up the phone go directly into odin and flash stock firmware.

Needing help - Stuck in Odin

Hi all,
Please bear with me, I'm in way over my head here and don't understand most of what I've done. I was experimenting when I probably shouldn't have been.
So, I installed DarkLord's Note 7 kernel and rom. I found it to be quite buggy and am now wanting to wipe my phone and install Phronesis-N9005-N7-v6.0.
Problem is, when trying to boot into TWRP, I'm met with the the following:
ODIN MODE
Product name: SM-N9005
Current binary: Custom
System status: Official
Reactivation lock(kk): Off
Knox Kernel lock: 0x0
Knox warranty void: 0x1
Qualcomm secureboot: Enable (csb)
Rp swrev: S2, T2, R2, A3, P3
Write protection: Enable
UDC start
Downloading...
Do not turn off target
I've had it on for hours and it didn't do anything.
I managed to reboot it and it ran as it did before, in Darklords rom.
I read I have to install the official firmware and install it via Odin but I can't find anything about my device. On the back of it, it says:
SM N9005
FCC ID - A3LSMN9005
SNN - N9005GSMH
When I enter it into sammobile, nothing comes up.
Have I got this wrong? Should I be looking for something else?

You are booting to download mode not recovery .
Boot to recovery TWRP
#N9005 model firmware are on sammobile etc.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/samsung-galaxy-note-3-sticky-roll-t3237249

Booting into recovery via TWRP manager just results in the same Odin screen for me
As for the firmware - I'm not really sure which region I should pick out of those. I just thought this was an international model, but then I downloaded an app called Phone INFO and it tells me it's Vietnam. Could this be because of the rom already on there? It does also say it's a Note 7, so I'm assuming it's incorrect.

TWRP manager
DO NOT USE just boot to recovery via the vol up home and power buttons as normal .
Copy Phronesis to ext sd card and flash as per instructions .
You have N9005 Pick your area /network where you are .
Phone Info can only go by what's on your phone and you flashed DarkLord's Note 7 firmware .

Booting via manager was a last resort. I was trying the usual way and it also resulting in the same thing.

Boot to download/ Odin mode flash stock rom .

Thanks JJEgan, I figured out how to use Odin3 and Odin mode, then install Phronesis. All is good now
