Absolutely certain I had 0x0 after flashing using that method.
Prior to manually updating I had Knox 0x1

I Rooted and Custom TWRP.

I followed EVERY step in that step-by-step. With ONE exception, I mistakenly flashed the Engineering Bootloader BEFORE following that tutorial.
but how did you trip the Knox the 1st time?

Well if you could list what firmware you came from? What bootloader you had previously etc etc

It may help Developers with the fight against knox

I think what freeza did is morph the NA4 engineering with the NAB bootloader thus creating a daily usable NAB bootloader.

I'm not so certain. I believe that unlocked bootloader was obtained the old-fashioned way, by it landing in the right hands. If what you've suggested were true, then why release it as unique? The OP of that thread makes it pretty clear that it's a very nice item to have and we won't know if another is coming.

I thought that the only unlocked bootloader that we had was NA4. Didn't know we had 2 unlocked bootloaders

I just believe it's the fact you have an engineering bootloader..... The bootloader you are now on is that is the engineering one or stock?

Yes. Right now I am on the Engineering Bootloader for NAB

I was previously on MJ4 Stock Rooted.
I Flashed the NAB Engineering Bootloader
Then I flashed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2657447

Okay, so let me see if I have the steps correct on this.
1. You flashed a custom recovery and rooted your device, thereby tripping Knox. Did you use CFAutoroot or Kingo? The recovery would have tripped knox anyways, but just checking for root method.
2. You started with MJ4 or did you upgrade to MJ4 and if you upgraded, was Knox tripped before? (I started with MI3, some had MI5). This is mainly to find out if you tripped Knox before or after MJ4.
3. While on MJ4, you flashed the NAB engineering bootloader.
4. You ran the one-click to update to 4.4.2

If you can clear up points 1 and 2, you could probably turn this into a guide to help others.
