1. First what is " Reactivation Lock ( KK ) " ? And that " KK " means is what introduced with KitKat update ( 4.4.2+ ) ?
2. If this " Reactivation Lock " is off this means I lose my warranty ?
3. That "2" in my green square means the counts of how many times the phone was rooted or voided Knox ?
4. If I have " Reactivation Lock" Off Like this photo without Knox voided this is a bad thing ?

#1&2: Reactivation Lock lets you use your Samsung account to prevent others from activating your device if it's ever lost or stolen. With Reactivation Lock turned on you will be required to enter your Samsung account credentials prior to starting a factory reset of the device. As such, your Samsung account*username and password*should be memorable.

#3: knox warranty void 0x1 means you have rooted your device (0x0 is a unroted device)
Whats the number means, I don't know.

It is 100% possible to have a rooted device and still have a Knox 0x0; I have one myself. Many basic methods of gaining root access will trigger the Knox bit to go 0x1, but few of those methods are used due to people having ways to gain root without tripping Knox. Equally, it is possible to have a Knox 0x1 without even having attempted to root the device; it having been trigged due to something else the person did. Knox 0x1 simply means that someone went into and has significantly altered (or attempted to alter) the bootloader or specific kernel files.

I founded what means taht 2 for my question 3, I founded this theard on sammobile: http://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23822 And ther said :
" Certainly is .
This is a modified phone and has no Knox security as it has been tripped.
Knox should read:
KNOX WARRANTY VOID:0x0
Yours has been tripped 4 times usually by rooting.
To unlock the phone himself, the seller would have had to root.
But done in a very clumsy way. "

[Q] How to root Note 3, 4.3 JB

Hey guys, I'm here to ask you guys how I can root my Samsung galaxy note 3 without voiding my warranty and hence without tripping my Knox counter. My devices details are as follows,
When I enter *#1234# on my dialler:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",

And in settings > about device:

Thanks anyways guys.
If you had followed note 3's forums for one day, you would know that what you want is not possible even in 2020.
How can you root if you don't know what it is. Lol. Not attacking you, but saving you from losing your note 3.
And if you some how don't care any more about Knox then root with cf auto root. Development forums and instructions there too.
Have fun with your note 3.

Once you have upgraded & tripped KNOX=1 you cannot downgrade ? Once KNOX is on phone you also can't go back to an earlier version without tripping it ?
Yes you can update to newer versions if you return to a stock rom via odin
But best advice is to install a custom rom via recovery that is close to stock as possible of which there are plenty to choose from ?
Ok thanks :]
I just noticed a new thing!
The phone now is on a custom rom , and again it do a fast restart randomly (maybe only when it's connected to the charger but i am not sure).
The strange thing that the restart is just so fast , like if you sign out of Windows and sign in fast!
So is it a hardware problem?

why not batch the BL

Dear all
we all wait for the reset knox for qualcomm SGN3
the idea is to patch the aboot.mbn
if we search for the string displayed on download mode saying
KNOX WARRANTY VOID : 0x0

and i found these
KNOX KERNAL LOCK :0x%0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID : 0x%0
so id we HEX edit it to fixed 0x0
and repack to official firmware the flash it via ODIN could these work
i know it ain't easy job i recall that there's another backup of BL and maybe third but it harsh me alot to reset or fake KNOX state

As i know the boot.img(aboot or sboot) must be proper signed.
So once you edit it after to be able to flash it you will have to sign it.This is the problem i think so.

That's exactly the problem, otherwise this would have been done long ago.
Kids, this isn't something made by a greasy teenager in a basement somewhere - behind KNOX is a firm that specializes in security and gets paid for it. Don't expect cracking it to be easy, and remember that it's Common courtesy to read the entire thread before starting new threads like this one.
Cheers,

First I'm not even thinking that newbie playing with crowbar crack tut in the "BASEMENT" like me could even think like you guys it's just idea while I'm harsh because of tripping my knox while flashing another country stock firmware screw that knox suppose to be encrypted protected container for sensitive data preventing any not authorized use and ensure data couldn't be retrieved by root or whatever
Ok I got certificate from full 4 files JB stock rom if I extract it and sign the aboot could it work

Note 4 firmware change possible ?

Hoi to all,
is it possible, to change my firmware, from N910FXXU1ANK4 to N910FPNH1ANK2_PNH ?
What wil happend with the Knox Warranty Void ?
Now i have a Vodafone rom(stock) on it, and i want to go to the PNH rom (stock)
It's not the first time for my to flash, just asking because i not sure about this.
Hopefully that someone, gives a positive feedback.
PS. sorry for my bad English, I come from the Netherlands.
Cool I'm from the Netherlands too. Here in the Netherlands only dynafix is repairing samsung and i have send several samsung devices with knox triggered to them without problems.
Debranding is always possible, but I'm not sure about knox. I always root my phone so knox is already triggered on my n4 else i could try it out for you

As long as they are both for your model (N910F) you should be fine, and if you encounter problems you can always reflash the stock firmware with Odin
Thanks for the quick reply.
It is better to speak/write English here
Hope that someone can answer my question, about the Knox
And that i can go to N910FPNH1ANK2_PNH from Vodafone.

Yes: you can flash the PHN-firmware WITHOUT triggering KNOX (because it's official firmware)...
You can download, fast, the update file here (MegaNZ) and install it with Odin 3.0.9
Henk,
Thanks for the nice answer
Also downloaded the file from your link.
Flashing is in process

Can you confirm if the knox triggers or not? Handy to know that for some customers

If you flash OFFICIAL FIRMWARE, KNOX will NEVER triggered!
If you flash CUSTOM firmware, and eventually ROOT your device, the chance is very high that KNOX will be triggered!

4K HDR camera mod without root?

Hello all. I'm getting my S8+ from the BOGO tomorrow. I wanted to know if there was a way to install the camera mod without root, or if there is a 3rd party camera that does this. My last Samsung was an S4 which didn't work well with updates after root/recovery.
On that note, can I just root without recovery to install the mod?
And unrelated, looking at getting the flip LED case. Does that protect well from drops? Doesn't look like it would. Other thought was a lens case I saw on Amazon, but looks like an inexpensive import thing so not sure.
You need root to install that mod, and if you're getting the snapdragon version there is no root for it at all.
Right, but can I root without recovery? I don't want to risk tripping Knox like my S4 did. I want to install updates as soon as Samsung releases them.
Knox will be tripped if you root the phone this way or that way.
Oh. I didn't think it would complain about a simple root. Guess I can't adb this either? Damn.

this is simply not true.root 100% will trip knox. there is no way to root and not trip knox.
False.
Sorry but you are all mistaken.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/progress-root-progress-thread-g950u-t3655239
S8 now has a root method that does not trip Knox.
This isn't the only device that can be rooted without Knox trip as well IIRC (but I don't remember which)

This is ONLY for the Snapdragon version (From US, not China) and it uses Samsung signed permissive and ENG firmware. You also can't charge the phone past 80% with this firmware (Devs working on fixing that) and while it doesn't trip Knox, it will make it useless until you flash full stock back.
