Samsung pass saying device is rooted on non rooted device - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hi guys hope you all fine.
I've a weird problem. Samsung pass/secure folder says that my device is rooted. While im on one UI Android 9.0 beta 3 ZSAI and my device status is official. Model#SM-G950F.
I've not rooted my phone after Flashing ZSAI update via adb.
Can't find any helpful thread on internet about my problem. Please help me to solve this.
Thanks in advance.

Have you ever rooted your device before?

Warranty void: 1 (0x0000)
No know option is visible in download mode.

Once rooted then no way to go back.

As the post above say's once you trip your Knox that's it. Flashing ROMs will not fix it. So no more Knox apps/features will work.

Once rooted, knox writes that root and never goes back to its default state. I was having the same problem as you, too. After researching a lot, unfortunately I had to accept :crying:

Did you use "CF Method" or "Root De La Vega" method?
I have a N900 and guess KNOX is not active on my phone. I hence used CF Root method.

yeah i used the cf auto root method and now its stuck, kies says its not responding but it picks up in odin, should i try to flash a stock firmware on via odin?

If you know the original firmware and csc try the de la vega root method. It might work and kill two birds with one stone. Make sure you use ODIN 3.09 and have both the firmware, should find on the page for de la vega and the csc, again on the de la vega page.
At this point it can't hurt. It also shouldn't trigger knox but there have been reports mj3 firmware has been triggering knox...

Guys I was rooted and 0x1 of course. I now wanted to sell my S7 edge and flashed the 7.0 FW for the new owner and was shocked about the S Health pop up that literally says that the device was "hacked" and S Health can't start! Is there a way of getting S Health behave "normal"? Maybe downgrade to M? Or was is it the same with S Health on M? never used S Health so I don't know...

Im so sad bro no one gives correct answer but i lost 3 4 day on internet searching to do something but unable to do anything for s health or know.
To the best of my knowledge, once Knox has been tripped, there is no resetting the counter. I don't think you can get said app to work irrespective of the version you have installed.
[EDIT]
Try this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/s-health-warning-nougat-final-rooted-t3536942
I contact live support they entered my phone remotely and all they did was to FORCE STOP app and then to open again
cannot get it work either, is it related to tripped knox itself or it will be working on non rooted knox tripped device?
I have the same error in S Health after installing BTU on a NEE S7 Edge device using Odin 3.11.1 and then I also did a factory reset. My Knox Counter is NOT triggered. Force stop does not help, no updates available. Any ideas?

I got this error when I only installed "AP" using Odin. I ran Odin again, selecting all files and then S Health works as expected.
It seems some people are getting these errors when flashing a CSC firmware that is not the phones original. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The only way around it without rooting, is to keep re-installing the firmware (making sure you flash all 4 files using CSC not HOME_CSC) until it finally works.
