can't believe it was this easy to fix. same solution as s health, did not think there would be any for samsung internet's secret mode. i have never thought that i could ever secret mode again as my knox has probably been tripped due to rooting several times....until now so thank you

I do not have root in my phone but i have the same problem (probably because the phone was rooted before) ..

I have a few solutions for you:

Root you phone again and edit build.prop, or flash official firmware again with Odin, or simply use Samsung Internet Beta for the time being

I am looking for this, but may I ask first, will this mod trip safetynet? Currently I am rooted with magisk. Thanks

It shouldn't trip safetynet, you can always revert back

I rooted my phone before but now i flashed with official rom i don't have access to system files i know i can root and then unroot my phone or flash TWRP recovey and edit it with ABD but the problem is if i do this the status won't be official i wanna change that build.prop and have official status what should i do?
I decided to edit MD5 rom file and change build.prop before i flash it so if i could change the MD5 rom files after i flash my phone the status will he official and the apps will work but how can i edit MD5 rom files?! it's hash!

If you did flash official firmware with odin and did not root it again, that line in build.prop should be set to v00. Why do you need official status for if i may ask?

well maybe I want to sell this phone in the future and those guys just check the rom status and some official apps
anyway I extract the md5 rom file and edit the build.prop file and compress it again but when I try to flash my edited rom it fails at flashing system

 

[iveki]

No need to edit room, just flash it with odin. Status should be official and that line in build.prop set to v00. Just a suggestion, maybe you can root your phone again and sell it as rooted, some people may prefer rooted phone to avoid hassle of rooting themselves. You said you rooted it once before so Knox is tripped forever and you cannot receive ota updates anyway. Greetings!!!
