Hi guys, sorry for a new post, but i cant seem to get a confirmed answer here or anywhere else.
My S5 g900f is currently rooted on stock 4.4.2 KitKat with Towel and Knox 0x0
The usb port is damaged (wont charge or connect to pc) and i need to send it back for repair to samsung. So i need to flash it back to official status without tripping knox.
Can anyone confirm if i can flash it back to stock with mobile odin pro? If so which options do i need to select? Thanks

Hi there,
I managed to perform root on this build yesterday, I followed the Chainfire tool / exploit, but it only worked after I downloaded SuperSU from the market (latest pro version) before it was giving a "no su binary present"
I have knox 0x01 I havent tried to downgrade it yet...
cheers

You can´t downgrade to a stock knox disabled firmware and if you root/flash a custom rom, you knox counter will be set to 0x1.
I updated OTA,but not via Kies
So still I have new bootloader? :/

Hi I recently root my note 3 SM-N900 with CF-AutoRoot, so when I go to Download Mode this is the information that it show me:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-N900
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
So I can´t see the Knox counter 0x1,
so I think that if it don´t show the information of Knox maybe it is not void the warranty, but I´m not sure.
now here are my questions
1. How to unroot and back to Official Stock Firmware?
2. If I unroot my note 3 can I use again Knox or not?
thanks for the help, and sorry for my bad english.
Have a nice day.
Flash the official firmware via Odin and it will unroot it. But I'm pretty sure if you used cf autoroot... Your knox will be 0x1

Ok I will try.
one more thing how can I update via OTA, when I try it say that it cant update because I have a Custome Firmware.
Man, you have the old Exynos boot loader which hasn't any knox flag, if you're gonna flash something make sure it's not the newest firmware (MJ7) via Odin or you'll update your boot loader which has a bit counter similar to the knox one, just custom Roms I'd recommend you.

Yea you'll be ok with this. It's the old bootloader

Whatever you do ."DO NOT UPDATE " . Continue using the same rom .once you update via OTA , YOU will never be able to downgrade to lower rom and worst a warranty bit will be activated which will make you loose warranty for life.irreversible

go to sammobile.com for firmwares,they have every fw released for any phone..
as for unroot,delete busybox,then go to superuser and select unroot,it will do the rest.
don't forget to use triangle away to reset the counter...
And,if u flash official fw over rooted fw,u will loose root,in other words,u won't have to go thru unroot process if u flash official fw.

Your KNOX will always 0x1, so at first download official firmware from sammobile.com than download odin, in AP choose your extracted firmware md5 file and flash it after successfully flashing it must say PASS! when your phone finishes booting go to recovery and factory reset.

Is there a selection of firmware which I will download or I will just select for the Note 3 9005? Since this is the first time doing that kind of flashing and rooting.. BTW after I flash the firmware and factory reset I can proceed in rooting?
yes go to firmwares and choose what region you want I have n900 but on n9005 I preffer BTU britain firmware, after that you can root your phone using cfautoroot

Can I flash directly for Kitkat? Or do I need to flash the original firmware first before I update to kitkat. Sorry for asking too much question newbie here Lol!
no problem if I know I share my opinion you can flash whatever you want, if you want KK or JB but you must know that you can't downgrade kitkat to jellybean so you choose

Hi, I found guide to root I9506 4.4.2 NEE, but can`t find guide to unrooting. Do you have link to it, if yes please provide it
Just uninstall SuperSU and flash 4.4.2 NEE ROM with Odin.
There may be other way, but hits one works well
I used the unroot option in SuperSu and it works great
Many thanks for your help

No....once knox warranty is void (0x1) you can not get it back to 0x0 no matter what!
