KNOX NO!!!

I've installed the app after supersu root after the initial start-up and asked him to clear whether the detected files KNOX. The answer of course is "YES", and perfect, will not jump the counter !! Thank you! :good:

Just installed the russian pre rooted firmware on SM-G800H (S5 mini duos) bought in Brazil. It worked very well. Better than the original brazilian rom and in brazilian portuguese. Now it's rooted and knox triggered. Worthwhile.

Acabei de instalar a rom pre roteada russa no SM-G800H (S5 mini duos) comprado no Brasil. Ficou muito bom. Melhor que a rom brasileira original e em português brasileiro. Agora está roteado e com o knox marcado. Valeu a pena.

I do not understand.

You have root without knox 0x1 ????

I thought if Flash the cf-auto-root-sm_g800f-kminilte-xxu1ang7.tar.md5 file knox is triggered ...

Maybe I also misunderstood the text.
My English is very bad.

Yes, I also think that I got this wrong. Would be really surprising if you got root without triggering knox.

Sent from my SM-G800F using XDA Free mobile app

The point is not that no root of Knox counter jumps hanbok that the "Super su" program recognizes the file after Knox and root can delete it.

3 question regarding root:

- this procedure is for SM-G800F
- which release of Odin i must use ?
- after flash root if i understand well is convenient flash file g800forigrecovery.tar.md5... but in this way i loss root ?

Thank
Hispa

Precedure correct is this ??:
put in download mode;
flash via odin with "auto reboot" and "f. reset time" ticked...
wipe data after flash through recovery

 

[DönerXXL]

I did it with Odin 3.09

No, you don't lose root if you flash later the recovery .

A little tip from me. After first boot SuperSu will disable knox.

The system will hang there. Do a reboot and open SuperSu.

You will be asked again to disable knox .Submit with yes and all is well.

Sorry for my bad English...

1 - After this procedure of Root if there is a update firmware, in which way i can upgrade ?
Kies i don't think... odin ?

2 - To flash custom recoveries g800forigrecovery.tar.md5 i must use i think odin again, which setting i must use on odin for flash this recovery and i also select PDA ?


Thank

My experience:

Odin 3.09
put in download mode;
flash via Odin PDA (AP)cf-auto-root-sm_g800f-kminilte-xxu1ang7.tar.md5 with "auto reboot" and "f. reset time" ticked
wipe data after flash through recovery
Root OK

After this always with Odin PDA (AP) i reflash the original stock recovery
g800forigrecovery.tar.md5
with "auto reboot" and "f. reset time" ticked
All ok

And at the end i have also installed form Play Store SDFix: KitKat Writable MicroSD, to have the possibility to write on external memory for example with Titanium Backup
Now is able to write and save on external memory

Does TowelRoot work on Galaxy S5 mini?
In this article: http://droidguru.org/how-to-fix-towelroot-phone-isnt-supported-issue/ author claims that code no 2 works on all galaxy devices.

Hello DönerXXL,

after a couple of years on my Galaxy S1 I havent used ODIN and other stuff so I have some questions.

- Have you used the Files from Chainfire homepage to root your Galaxy S5 mini?
- Is there any yellow triangle Symbol while booting up you device like it has been on Samsung Galaxy S2?
- Can you confirm that the knox counter is 0x00?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Greetings from Germany

DönerXXL,
how did you manage to clean KNOX status. I applied that ROM from Winstrol post and my knox shows now 0x1. You said that SuperSu app will disable it. Where is that option ?
