[GUIDE][4.3]How to have stock permissive kernel w/o having warranty bit label at boot

[Kaito95]

It doesn't work anymore on newer 4.3 Firmwares (MJ9 with Changelist:1986587 and newer)



Hello friends,

I found a solution how to have stock permissive kernel without having warranty bit label at boot. In my approach I will explain you how it works.

→ IT WILL WORK ONLY WITH STOCK KERNEL

-> flash newest 4.3 firmware
-> root your S4 using CF-Auto-Root
-> install ES File Explorer or another root file explorer you like
-> remove Samsung KNOX manually ! (see my DE-SAMSUNGNIZER Script which apk's or folders you must delete)
-> install Universal Init.d Support and start the app (Click me)
-> enable init.d [if have problems by enabling init.d, you must have BusyBox before using the app]
-> download this script and copy it to system/etc/init.d using a file explorer
-> set the permissions to 777 (rwxrwxrwx)
-> reboot and enjoy your permissive stock kernel without having any labels at boot :good:


→ Video demonstration ←


Thanks to:
@Chainfire for CF-Auto-Root and SuperSU
@Ryuinferno for his great App
@everyone who motivated me :good:

Once again outstanding work Kaito95 Thank you. I've been using @Ryuinferno UnitD app for awhile. He is an outstanding developer. Thanks @Chainfire as well for making this all possible. Great easy steps for permissive kernel.

Not Working

Im on 4.3 complete upgrade using QBkings video, KNOX completely removed and Init.d enabled with CF AUTO root installed.
as per your OP i moved the txt file to system/etc/init.d and changed permissions as mentioned in your OP.
rebooted also, Triangle away shows counter:21.

Im on 4.3 Galaxy S4 Sprint SPH-L720

Got it figured out.

Counter Set to 0 and
system Official thanks

When I check this link, it says that it is not compatible with 4.3. What about this?

This does not trigger the KNOX flag?

 

[pvinodnayak]

Read the OP, Knox is removed manually first.

Yeah and you need root for that, which triggers the knox flag...

And for custom ROMs w/o Knox?

Hi all,

Is it possible that this script works even with Knox app already removed (as in Custom ROMs)?

 

[bungadudu]

Yeah and you need root for that, which triggers the knox flag...

But if we use this method there will be no Knox warranty flag in the recovery, as per op said ...

Use this method to root the firmware. Then flash the file using Odin. Read OP carefully.

Does this work on i9500? Since 'warranty bit' label is for the i9500 while the i9505 has a knox 0x1 label
