Appreciate if you could anyone advise what is appearing top of the screen picture. Is there any possibility to root my device without this message.
Check the picture guys.
Thanks in advance.

That message clearly shows you've rooted your device. And since its rooted, you must have tripped your knox counter too, making it 0×1 because of which your warranty is now gone. If u want that message to disappear flash the samsung stock firmware which will eventually unroot ur device. But ur knox will remain as it is: 0×1

Thanks a ton for the reply so did the svc center void the warranty and does this mean we will have to wait till chainfire or someone can find a way to make triangle away work on the I9500.....I kinda feel sad for the exynos variant isnt there any way to root the device without losing the warranty..

So what am trying to check here is if i install a custom recovery which obviously will be via odin and for some reason if i have to give the phone to the svc center and i flash back to the stock rom will i be able to cover it under warranty....

Your counter will still be raised and the status will still show modified, if they see that they may void warranty as it is not in original condition.
I am rooted. My counter is at 0. Link to stock rom with root is below

Flashing this via odin doesnt trip the counter.

If your phone is on MK2 firmware then you already tripped the knox counter. Boot into download mode to check.

I did just that and it ssys samsung official and official on next line as well
On bottom I think it says 0x30 but so small can't read. Lol
would this be ok to send back this way for warranty

I don't know why it would say 0x30? If you tripped the knox counter then it was say 0x1 an your warranty will automatically be void. What's going on with your phone? If you were an early adapter of the S4 and didn't update it, you don't have knox.
It's running 4.2.2. It does say 0x30. Whats Knox?

Your probably good. If you don't know what knox is just google samsung knox.

[Q] Knox app installation

Hi everyone,
I wanted to ask you something about Knox but I ask here because in the main thread the question would disappear between the pages.
Yesterday I flashed stock rom again, after having custom rom, and now I'm on stock with Knox 0x1.
I wanted to ask what would happen if I try to install the Knox app while Knox is 0x1?
It won't work? It will brick my device? or what?
Thanks
It will download a big file, then a message will appear that it cant/wont install....

Its samsungs security feature that is built into the boatloader and software on the ROM as apps. It can be used by businesses (the U.S. military also adopted it) as a secure sand boxed environment to basically keep work and personal data separate. Any modifications (rooting/flashing custom ROM) to the phone that features Knox, triggers the Knox warranty and so flagging the device as compromised. You can still continue to flash ROMs etc but you cannot reverse the knox warranty counter.
First boot into download mode, if you see text on the top left saying 'Knox warranty 0x0', you have the Knox boot loader. Once you have this boot loader you can't downgrade. If you don't have any mention of Knox then you are on the old boot loader and can remain on it and flash away without triggering the Knox warranty.

In down load mode just hold the power button for a few seconds and your device will restart.

[Q] Did Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo(GT-I9300I) has Knox Security???

Please can anyone tell me did S3 Neo also has Knox Security, I don't see Knox written anywhere in Odin mode.

Yes S3 Neo has Knox. You can use this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bryancandi.knoxcheck app to check if you have Knox.
Info :
0x0 Warranty valid/You have knox
0x1 Warranty void/You don't have knox

Software tools say it has. But after flashing different roms and recoveries gazzilion times mine still says 0x0. As you can see from the screenshot even atm I am using cm12.1 with TWRP recovery and it hasnt done anything to the counter. So to be honest I think no matter what you do you can just flash back stock from odin and keep waranty.

Heres another screenshot from Phone Info app. Now the since this app detects knox warranty void on models like s4, s5 and as far as I know s6, I highly doubt samsung went thru the trouble of putting some undetectable warranty counter and a mid range device such as our S3 neos.

My Phone is just two months old , should I root my mobile because I'm afraid of tripping the knox counter which obviously you can't reset.

I rooted mine the second day I got it (I got it somewhere around January). So far havent had any problems with it and the knox (if there is one) still says 0x0. That said rooting and flashing custom recovery is still something that may potentialy harm your device so its up to you to decide. Dont take my words as 100% proof everything will be ok. Maybe indeed w8 for a few more ppl to say if they had any problems with knox so far.

I am not 100% sure mate.
I checked my build.prop file and I found this "ro.config.knox=v00" I don"t know if it means, our phone has knox. I also found an app called "KNOX notification manager" in settings.

Knox isnt only related to warranty btw. It allso has to do with samsung enterprise security crap. Thats why we have some knox apps on our phones.
But again w8 for more reports from ppl who have rooted before you do it just to be safe.

Hey Buddy guess what? I took the risk and rooted my mobile with Cf Auto Root method and everything went smoothely and when I checked Knox status with apps nothing has changed and in Odin mode also only status has changed to Custom nothing else.
Mission Accomplished

Does it means I have my warranty back if I reflash official stock rom?
Im thinking about flash CM 12.1 but i still have 1 year and 6 month's warranty.

Yep! Your warranty will not be void as long as your device is running a stock rom when you turn it in. You can check your binary counter by going to download mode.

If you flash CM 12.1 , it will trip the binary counter but you can always reset the binary counter with the help of Triangle Away App by ChainFire. Resetting the binary counter and then flashing the Stock Rom will restore the warranty of your device.

I'm not talking about Knox Counter but I'm talking about Binary Counter which every Samsung phone already have and keeps track of how many times a custom firmware had been flashed. And as far as Knox Security is concerned there is still no way to reset Knox counter but fortunately S3 NEO don't have it.
