knox reset

[alphase]

hi,
for begin i'm not developper

today I had a stupid idea and if instead of resetting to 0 the knox counter it is shorted to make it appear to 0 even if it is at 1

I will need help from someone who knows enough to short it I have to locate in the file sboot a sort of verification that passes the flag to 1 I think it's possible to leave at 1 and make it appear a 0

Everything I've read says that resetting it is impossible. I understand that you want to effectively camouflage it, but since it's sub-kernel from what I understand, I'm not sure how you'd change that. You'd basically need to completely reprogram that part of the mainboard to just "print" "knox 0x0" instead of checking and displaying an actual result, but there's no telling what else that would affect. If the computer requires the check as a part of the POST (or whatever Samsung's analog is) and gets a null as a result of the tampering, it may just brick. If it sounds like I'm talking out of my ass, I probably am.

i think it's possible to recup the download mode part for hide knox flag but don't idea for this i search a solution for that

From what I know you CAN hide your Knox counter to 0x0 systemwise but in download mode there will be 0x1 for ever. That's because Knox is written on an efuse which just breaks when you trigger the counter.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think there is no way back.

i thinks if triangle away can rewrite the flash counter it can rewrite the knox counter

Once knox it trip, it does physical damage to motherboard to change bit to 1.
The only way to fix is to replace motherboard in phone

No it can't. Once triggered it's irreversible.

Nope, zero chance.

What about...

and what about the "Knox Reset" app that Venus342 offers?
It is for $60 on the Play Store, not cheap to buy for trying purposes ...

As it's been said a MILLION times all over the internet....

IT'S NOT POSSIBLE! The only way of having an S8 with Knox 0x0 after triggering it, is replacing the motherboard with one that has not been rooted. Jeez.

What i was able to see on that venus342 app, it is just a process that hides the flag via software. If you go into download mode, it will still show 0x1.
He is just monetizing free software solutions.

I'm the developer of the KNOX Reset 0x0(0) app. Just a clarification, the app works as intended and is thoroughly tested. The app is unable to tamper with the efuse so it just masks the download mode string and changes it to display 0x0(0) regardless of the actual value. It is a software based spoof.
Also, to the guy who says that I'm monetizing free software solutions, note that I'm not forcing you to buy the app. We went through multiple all nighters, we worked really hard for this. If you need something like this, you can buy it. Please be reminded that you are not being forced to buy the app. Also, we offer instant refunds incase the user is unsatisfied.
Thank you.

If you look it up his app only has 4 reviews I take that back 4 5 star ratings and 3 reviews
His web-page for support doesn't even work
Some one even said they just tried it from somewhere I dont know But all it did was change build prop DL mode was unmodified
