Does Samsung Pay work on U firmware? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer

Does Samsung Pay work on U?
I'm trying to go back to stock because root is too laggy. Want to use U firmware, but does Samsung Pay work?

Yes, just fine.

Yes it works. Currently using G935UUEU4APL4.

What's the advantage of UFirmware? From what I've read, it has less bloatware but just eats a lot of battery.

It reportedly consumed more battery on rooted devices, unrooted should be fine, though I have had no problem running on it (though I have a fair bit of adjustments applied). The U-Firmware performs better for me and a friend immediately noticed how much smoother his phone performed after switching. Wifi calling still works, though I think you loose VOLTE & vide calling. Less bloat could probably lead to better battery anyways, though to be safe you could always switch to apk1 and wait for Nougat.

On T-Mobile VoLTE still works, but the built-in video calling is absent on the U firmware.

I thought after you tripped Knox by rooting there was no going back, and Samsung Pay is permanently broken. Is that not the case?

Rooting does not trip Knox.

Rooting does trip Knox. Flashing OEM firmware via Odin doesn't. Once you trip Knox, Samsung pay will not work anymore.
To answer OP's question, yes it works. I've been rocking G935U latest firmware on my T-Mobile Variant and works beautifully. I strongly suggest you move to U firmware.

Huh. That's very odd because I've rooted my S7E several times and I'm still 0x0 and I'm not rooted anymore because I like the use of Samsung Pay.
Don't think that what you're saying is accurate.

That's weird that it doesn't trip yours. All the posts I've seen on XDA and everywhere else say it does. Did you go as far as flashing a new recovery? I've tripped mine on my Note 4 before (not doing on my s7e because I still like to play it safe). How did you root yours? If that doesn't trip Knox, then Samsung just had a major mishap on their security. Good for you then. :good:

We can't flash a new recovery because the bootloader is locked.
You're writing in the T-Mobile forum man.
None of our Knox is tripped. We get root through an engineering kernel and flash through Flashfire.
Samsung Pay doesn't work but our Knox is still 0x0.

Pretty sure the only root that trips Knox is CF-Autoroot that you flash through odin, that's only available for the F model and the china snapdragon model.

Rooting Note 3 Advice

Hi,
I just recieved my Note 3 this morning , but have a few questions about rooting on it...
Not sure what information is required, but my phone is on Android 4.3 and its a SM-N9005.
I don't really have any plans about installing custom roms as such, but I do want it to be rooted and I want to stick to official samsung firmware. (At least for now, it may change in the long term future). I'm wanting to update to KitKat too (When its available in the UK anyway, doesn't seem to be out here yet anyway)
I'm pretty scared about this Knox flag I'm hearing about too... Not so sure about it, but I hear its essentially makes your warranty void, which I don't want this early in.
Anyone have any advice for me based on this?
Thanks

Ah thanks for that. Was reading up on it but couldn't see something as detailed as this.
I'm guessing its saying I can't root without tripping the Knox yet... which is a bummer...
My Baseband ends in MJ7
My build number ends in MK2
Does this mean I can't root at all without tripping the knox yet?
If so is there any sort of...development in this area?

No and no.
If you are worried about knox, then don't root, yet.
But as far as I know, under European laws, Samsung cannot refute warranty even if your knox is tripped.
Read around. Or ask other people from Europe about this. @radicalisto

Fraid not, only way you can root is by tripping KNOX. Now the way Europe handles KNOX warranty is a massive grey area, if you encounter Hardware issues it'll probably get fixed, but don't take that as solid.
My advice, stick with stock for 2-4 weeks, see if you have any HW issues, if not go ahead and trip it only if you want root and/or custom ROMs.
Do a ton of reading in the couple of weeks while you're waiting and look at the issues and risks

[Q] General inquiry about KNOX and FW types

Hello all,
I searched the forums round and round, and couldn't find my answers so I hope you will be able to help me out.
i'm looking for a new phone and decided I want to go with the S5. that was before i learned about KNOX and it's wonderful ways.
i'm a heavy modder, who will most definitely use a custom recovery and ROM/kernel.
my questions are:
1. would it be possible to flash a custom recovery / rom / kernel / modem despite KNOX being preset?
2. other then getting this 0x1 and voiding my official warranty, are there any other result to this? will something not work?
3. assuming I get an unlocked international phone, is there any need to mess/change my FW? or is that just part of guides for rooting without tripping KNOX ?
Basically, I want to be sure that I could do whatever I want to the phone without getting stuck or turning it unusable because of KNOX. my current phone is a Nexus 4 and it has been heaven. I want to preserve this feeling
thanks for the help guys, appreciate it!
Did you tried Towelroot method for rooting your device? I heard that doesn't trigger knox..
I would imagine my rooting the phone is the least of my worries.
as far as I know - and this is one of my questions - flashing a custom recovery and or rom will 100% trip KNOX.
not that I care, I just need to know if this is true..and my other questions as well
thanks!
A brief answer
If you - as you say "i'm a heavy modder" Samsung phones are not for you
I've heard tales of people having issues flashing modems when knox is triggered. I have not checked that out for myself Joe have I searched any further into the matter.
I plan on breaking knox soon though because screw knox.

This answer really worries me to be honest.
could you elaborate?
I don't really care about KNOX, and as long as I can mod away and jump back and forth between modems/roms/kernels - I don't care for the warranty.
If indeed there is truth in the matter, and modem flashing will become a problem if KNOX is tripped, then this would be a deal breaker for me on this phone.
anyone care to add more info here?

You can, but you will always have problems like network, connection,calls, bugs and so on
Samsung devices do not provide the old pleasure as previously
Knox killed freedom of developers and people who like customizations
I would really appreciate an answer from someone who knows for sure.
does tripping KNOX disables the option to upgrade/downgrade the modem?

No, KNOX tripping is only at the moment a warranty void solution for samsung. its like the flash count flags.
basically if you trip knox. you're already in it. you do what you want

I bought my phone with ANCE firmware and the KNOX was tripped in the first hour by CF-AutoRoot. Now I'm on ANG2, flashed with Odin and the modem is updated correctly.

Exactly, but with full stock image flush (including bootloader). The full stock tar.md5 form sammobile includes the modem/bootloader/rom. I think that the important thing is to have a modem which is compatible with the bootloader (same version). Didn't try to mix different bootloader/modem(baseband) versions.
Tripping KNOX will only disable the feature which allows you to store some data on a encrypted part of the device (Mostly comercial use) when KNOX is tripped any data stored on the 'special' partition is destroyed.
So there are only 2 things that will be affected, your warranty (Not a problem in Europe) and the special partition that I explained earlier.

Knox Warranty and Rooting - Advice Wanted

Curiosity got the better of me, and I just installed a custom recovery and a custom rom on my S8.
Obviously the knox warranty void thing now reads 0x1.
I wish I hadn't bothered as custom rom doesn't run as stable and nice as the factory EE firmware that was on my phone before
I'm going to revert my phone back to original firmware with Odin later. Could anyone advise me whether it is possible to reset the Knox 0x1 thing back to original 0x0? I'm guessing not. If that's the case, how will this affect things when I'm back on original firmware? Will I still recieve OTA updates in the usual way etc.? What are the disadvantages apart from the void warranty?
Joe
u cant revert e-fuse knox bit. losing it means lose for good.
all secure apps like samsungpay, some banking app, etc wont work.
tripped knox shud still avail to receive OTA but rooting prohibit it & OTA needs original stock recovery to work.

Knoxed is knoxed. Can't reset that one. You can of course flash original firmware back with Odin if you wish. But Samsung Pay will never work. S-Health might work, but i'm not sure if you need custom rom to make it work (with magisk)
OTA's will come as usual even with knoxed device if you are on original firmware. (not rooted)
Thanks for your advice! I have no intention of using Samsung Pay, but DO use Android Pay. Will it still work when I've reverted back?

Without further investigation i don't believe android pay will care about knox being 0x1. But with root it won't work. (again, maybe with magisk).
I tested this last week and I had no issues using either Android Pay or Samsung Pay on my rooted s8+. I just hid the root from the apps in magisk and I was good to go. Knox is obviously tripped so I dont think that's a deal breaker.

I guarantee you, that won't last.
By the time a security/knox upgrade comes in the Magisk hide loophole will be patched.

Wouldn't bother me for a few reasons.
1. I rarely use NFC pay as it is.
2. I don't use Samsung or Android Pay, I only installed and tested them because of all the fuss going on over people afraid of losing the feature.
3. My bank ANZ Australia has their own NFC mobile pay app that I like better anyways.
Just wanted to clarify for some users that as of right now on the current up-to-date firmware, you can certainly use these NFC pay features. Whether that changes in the future and and how soon is anyone's guess.

How to make Samsung Pay work after root then go back to stock?

i have previously rooted my S7 Edge, but I am now looking to sell it, so I already put it back to factory settings and stock rom, Now when I try to open Samsung pay it says unauthorized modifications have been made to my device so it cant use Samsung pay. Is there a way to fix this and keep the phone on a stock rom?
No currently known method. You have irreversibly tripped your Knox e fuse by rooting it. Rendering Samsung pay permanently disabled.
Maybe you can sell it as rooted? Not sure how the second hand market for phones work, but maybe more desirable to some?
I won't ever use Samsung Pay. But Samsung's ridiculous insistence of permanently marking a phone that has had any form of customisation (remember, more than just rooting trips Knox) and then disabling a service they offer as a result, even if you take that phone completely back to stock, is precisely why my S7E is the last from them I'll buy.
F**k them, in short.
i thought if you just reflash it with the original firmware through odin, you'll be able to use it back. I did it with my rooted verizon s7edge, then reflash it with u firmware and i can just use samsung pay normally.
You're mistaken. If you rooted your phone, you tripped Knox, which on this architecture is an efuse that you can't rectify. This will stop Samsung Pay working indefinitely no matter what ROM you run, stock or otherwise.

then my phone, however unlikely it seemed, must have not understood it correctly that it must function that way. Because between august and now, I rooted my G935V, then I reflash G935U firmware through ODIN and rooted the phone again, and I ended up going back to using it without root. I still can use samsung pay in the device. Swearsies realsies. Although I dont have that level of faith and certainty to break knox in my G955U.
As far as I know, there are root methods that does not trip Knox eFuse, what, for sure, will trip Knox eFuse is installing unofficial ROMs.

True. I did the same.The first thing i did was root my S7 edge. But i didnt like it (too much lag) and went back to stock(odin).After that,everything is working Including Samsung Pay.I dont know why people are saying that you cant use Samsung Pay after odin the stock firmware.

If I have to guess, this may have something to do with SD vs Exynos, because my snapdragon Verizon s7edge able to use spay after reflashing it to U firmware via ODIN. However, when I re-flash my s8 exynos with odin to some unlocked firmware, it recognize that I have tripped knox and voided my warranty. Although this one had TWRP and unlocked bootloader.
I just rooted my s7 Edge SM-G935F to load the Oreo Rom posted this week. After getting the poor Wifi I re-flashed it back to stock and was surprised (yes I know - I should have read first) that S-Health and Samsung Pay refused to work.
Bit of a pain as I have a Gear S3 also, which has lost functionality.
But, I have reflashed several times since, trying to get everything back to stock, including restoring from a Samsung Switch backup.
I have no idea what I did, but after one of the flash processes, Samsung Pay started working fine - I added my cards etc. no problem. As S-Health wasnt working, I tried to edit the system files to fix that...
And ended up doing another flash and Samsung Pay is broken again.
So there is something that allows Samsung Pay to work after Knox has been tripped. Unfortunately, I cannot replicate it again, so it may just be a random bug.
Samsung Pay and S Health not working after rooting.
Once you modify your S7 Edge and trigger knox you cannot use Samsung Pay again, even if you re-flash stock firmware. But S Health you can but you have to flash Marshmallow 6.0 firmware and set your phone up from start and update all your apps and then open S Health and set it all up. Then just go to software update settings OTA ( Over the Air ) and update your phone to the latest firmware Nougat 7.0 and when your phone restarts after updating automatically go to S Health and it'll work. There may be a simpler way of doing it but thats how I did it after stupidly rooting my S7 Edge SM-G935F Exynos European unlocked BTU firmware.
You can use shealth by just editing a line in build.prop but not samsung pay.
i try any way for worked s-health but heartrate sensor dont work any more after rooting...how can fix this sensor worked again ?
But does not work at all? I would like to root my Exynos S8 but I like the loyalty card feature because the ability to use it even in old barcode scanners, I can't find any other app that can use the IR blaster for doing that.
It's the only feature that I wouldn't want to lose... As I pay with my bank app that can work with Magisk Hide.

this is incorrect. i have a galaxy A8 (2018) and i tripped knox on it about 5 months ago and have not been able to use samsung health, but have used samsung pay just fine. I got tired of the inability to use sammy health and decided to flash twrp and magisk to block ads (since i wasnt getting the benefit of not being rooted) and lost use of samsung pay. I am going to do the process mentioned below and see what it yields.

i hope this is the fly in the ointment. Knox isnt the issue, its something else that has yet to be discovered. As stated above, my knox has been tripped for quite some time and sammy pay worked without issue. My issue only surfaced after flashing twrp and magisk
following up on the issue of tripping knox causing samsung pay to not work. Ive been back on stock firmware, unrooted with knox DEFINITELY tripped for the last few weeks, and i can happily report that it works fine both on the phone and my Gear S3 Frontier. Knox is NOT the culprit

U cant have your cake and eat it too.
Knox being broken shouldn't void warranty under EU consumer laws. But you best do your due diligence and not just take my word for it.

The answer is no. At least nothing publicly available.
Theres plenty of USA s10+ owners who would be all over if it was possible since we cant even unlock the BL which means stuck waiting around for alternate root methods

This is not true. It depends on "how" you root. Finding a way to root without unlocking the BL and using custom boot/recovery usually does not trip Knox. Of course these methods are becoming more and more rare. For example I rooted s8/s8+ USA variants back when they launched which was using a few vulns, certain signed samsung firmware and system root and Knox was fine. They also can root USA Note 8 devices using other means without tripping Knox. I also rooted USA N9 on combo firmware without tripping knox/warranty bit.
Heck even unlocking bootloader sometimes doesnt trip Knox until you actually flash custom firmware. Typically if you use Magisk root or TWRP on an unlocked bootloader then you definitely will trip Knox. Point is that it's possible to root without tripping knox as it has been done many times over the years. Nowadays though most people just buy unlockable variants so it's really all anyone sees or knows about most the time.

Lol
Seeing as how magisk patched firmware and TWRP specifically require an unlocked BL which is exactly what trips knox your answer is no. That will 100% trip your knox flag.
As far as Netflix (and many other companies) they are always trying to be as secure as possible. Theres many who find ways to get around those types of issues. It's just a cat n mouse game sometimes i.e devs get it working then Netflix breaks it again then users find a way to get around it etc etc

What you say is true anything is “possible”
However as the OP is on the O2 network he has an Exynos chipset.
Is it currently possible to root an Exynos S10+ without tripping Knox ?
I stopped rooting about 5 years ago so don’t know of a way right now

ive never owned one.. i imagine most just unlock bl.. but from wat my sources tell me there is easy root on exynos without tripping knox.. I am not able to provide details tho as they are private methods.. they use it for business and such apparently so take it with a grain of salt lol
exynos are notoriously known to b a lot easier to root than SD variants
