You can't.
Tripped KNOX flag is permanent.

You can't fix Knox once the eFuse is blown there's no fixing it.
You should've known rooting devices will have a chance of voiding warranty.
Once you've installed Custom recovery like TWRP you've voided Warranty.

Change mainboard or buy a new phone.

This is an expensive lesson but you'll now know that it's always important to read and read and learn. That way you can gain some knowledge and, most importantly, it's free.

If it makes you feel any better OP, I learned the same mistake the same way with a Note 5.

Tripping knox is only bad when you want to claim warranty for the phone due to a hardware problem. Otherwise, it's perfectly running normal without any effect on the phone's performance.

You still have a chance of taking it to the service center without telling them about root. Just flash a full stock rom before.

Thanks for the good advice I sent a message to the shop where i bought it and they mailed me back that i have to bring back the device so tomorrow i'll bring it back.

I think a lot of folks who are new to Samsung phones never heard of Knox and therefore did not know something like that could be irreversibly tripped. Still, no excuse for not proceeding more cautiously and doing advance research.

Not cool he's learned a very expensive lesson being rude and disrespectful doesn't do any good in any way.
At least he didn't turn it into a paperweight like I did on my s3 when I started.

Thanks dude

You're a good man

Yes I failed it so that was the reason why I am asking you guys beacause there are some phone experts and i heard a lot of nice things about xda forum but it's sad to see that there are some impolite and rude members like the guy who just sent me this negative comment. But I'm glad to meet you and thank you very much these kind words. It really rarely happens that i see guys like you. So thank you and be awsome dude

If your Rooted with TWRP installed there are Custom Roms the uses Magisk systemless Root that has Knox working to locate the device
Do some searching in the s7e threads and read a lot before doing anything.

Could we talk on skype or something because as I see you're an expert on these phones.

I learned the hard way my friend.
This is a public forum and you'll find all types here. I also understand somewhat the rudeness from some members. This is really supposed to be a development site and there are Rules in place members are supposed to read, especially Rule number one which basically States search first.
Here's a piece of advice I was given some time ago as a new member.
Read everything search constantly and when you think you've read enough read more.
Then when it comes time to modify you're expensive device re-read what you've already read.
That has served me well. I'm no geek by any means geez I rarely turn my computer on. However I can read.
Good luck and be thankful you just voided Warranty and not ruined it.
Oh and thanks for the kind words I appreciate them.
