Although I don't want to be a let down, please keep in mind TrustZone is enabled on this phone which could be the reason steboot0/1 seem empty. Likewise Samsung can use TrustZone to store the number of custom downloads, so I really recommend using the system.img root+dd the recovery: because there is zero guarantee we'll be able to reset the count to zero in the future (bypassing TrustZone would be exceedingly hard. It's a secure hypervisor, with a small attack surface).

We have the option to overclock the CPU.
Are we be able to use Arm tables, maybe, from cpu to manage processors registers?

My phones binary count is at three, cause of mods of recovery.
Hope it might not loose its functionality, the warranty at this moment is lost. :angel:

There is always the possibility of a vulnerability in the bootloader that manages the TrustZone, however since we don't have that code and can't analyze it, there's very little chance one will be found. Direct eMMC access will be required. If someone has a JTAG box and been able to JTAG a S3 mini, please contact me.

If you break your display Samsung won't take it into warranty anyway so what's the point?

You are wrong unless you supply a link to your claim. The bounty to reset KNOX is still unclaimed as there is still NO WAY to reset it. Please do not give people false hope or make claims you are not willing to back up with proof.

My phone is SM-N9005, with 4.3 stock and the dreaded MJ7..
I understand that there still is no way to Root this device without flagging the [email protected]@# KNOX and void any warranty..
I'm going to wait a couple of days for a possibility to root my beloved Note3, without triggering KNOX and then I don't think I kan live without Titanium, Exposed and Tasker++... :fingers-crossed:
I'm wondering if someone can explain to me; (I'm a noob and I know it) is the information Knox 0x1 stored in flash memory (NAND)?
And if so, and i had to deliver my phone for service some time in the future.. Would it be possible to make Nand corrupt beyond recognition and then get warranty back?
If they can't see anything wrong, they can't claim that I have been rooted..
Or should I just try too brag them with some baked goods and hope for the best?
I really hate that Samsung have done this with an "open" OS, and if there's no good work around in the future, This will be my last Samsung device!
Btw: This is my first post here on XDA, and sorry for my "English"

Don't know why, but I'd be more comfortable with a full whipe of NAND, if that's the place KNOX is stored..

KNOX is stored everywhere, - No one knows for sure where the counter 0x0/0x1 is located, hence no one being able to reset it. It is possible it's in NAND, but then again, it might be somewhere totally different.

In all honesty I doubt a few days will make any difference, there isn't even anyone working on rooting without tripping KNOX, especially now DG and CF have given up and said it can't be done due to the bootloader...

If that is corupted, wouldn't it be difficult or impossible to read the internal SD?

Hi everyone I have been a long time lurker here and need a bit of help please.
I was trying to unlock my GT I9505 via the service menu but I accidentally deleted my EFS folder so now my IMEI shows just /02 and nothing else.
Is there any way to restore this or can anyone log on to my PC and do something I have no problem making a Paypal donation in order to sort this.

If the phone is rooted and they dont wanna fix it then go ahead ,flash stock rom and do reset / factory reset to make it back to official roms to get back to warranty , Im sure your phone still has warranty? . Or you can try this one

Hi all
I bought a new samsung S4 i9505 ---without guaranty---
2 days ago the device started restarting and the sound goes dead and there can't be anything to make the device produce any sound neither from the front speaker nor from the main speaker nor even the headphones !!
I did a hard reset and voila -or i thought so- the device finally worked fine completely , until after about an hour when it started freaking out and not responding and the sound went dead again , restarting the device only sent it to a boot loop !
Finally today i installed a complete system using ODIN and it worked fine again for only an hour and then it went to the boot loop
I plugged the phone to the charger and powered it on and it worked smoothly but with no sound at all again :X
So can any guy help me sort this problem out please
Thanks in advance

Stores usually offer warranty.
So there's something odd at the middle.
Maybe you bought it from some dealer on the street..and those usually never sell you anything good.
Well the store did give me a warranty but only for software issues , and he said this must be a hardware issue.
So is this true ?

I asked WHEN, not WHERE.
When is time related. Where is location related.
Also, warranties usually are all-rounders. Meaning they offer service to software and hardware related issues.
So why did they offer only software?
Anyway. If it is hardware related then there is nothing you can do, except to change the parts.
LOL
My bad , i read it like where , and was like what difference does it make where i got it , my mistake
anyway as i said it is not a big firm or anything like that is just a small shop only providing software warranties
and as i said in the first post i got it about a month ago
i will try flashing with pit file
thanks for the advice

Didn't see that info
Anyway. What I am trying to say is that maybe they knew about the phone having issues and that's why they offered only software warranty (A bit paranoic, I know)
once the phone boots up try dialing *#0*# and let us know how that goes. This MAY be a kernel issue. happens when they probably have given you an S4 with a different model number, with a different firmware flashed. (sometimes i9505 vs. i9515 due to different chips) What is the model number shown in the download mode? i9505? And Knox Status?
The service tests all OK except both speaker tests
The download mode shows i9505
i don't know what this Knox is

So your bootloader doesnt say anything about knox? What version of android are you running?
KNOX cernerl lock : 0x0
KNOX warranty void: 0x1
i was on latest jellybean , tried flashing it with odin and the problem didn't go away
tried lollipop and it is just the same
when i turn the phone on it gives the booting sound hangs about a min or tow boots up , sometimes doesn't even complete booting, sometimes the sound stays functional for a few mins then stops sometimes it instantly after the boot stops
could it be some minor issue like battery malfunction maybe ?
or is it a big issue ?
i don't want to take it to samsung and pay the fix if i can fix it my self because i am not good at turkish and they speak so little english that i will not be able to make them understand the problem

Hello every one!!!!
i am not sure if i am posting this in the correct section, if not forgive me, but i am not sure where to post this..
SO... long story short: i went to service because i had to fix imei (which i still have to be done) so i went to pick up the phone not fixed (too expensive in that lab), and i found out there is a SERVICE FIRMWARE on it!!!
first thing i did was dumping it of course i am providing now links to it and to the kernel shipped along with..
ODIN FLASHABLE
RECOVERY FLASHABLE
note:
- both require a factory reset to start, if you do it from custom recovery you can skip format sdcard, but still need to wipe data
- odin flashable already is rooted and has su app installed by me, for the recovery one you can simply flash SuperSuUpdate.zip
most interesting stuffs are a permissive from stock kernel, there are some service apps, which unfortunately are not fixing my problem, and only allow to run tests basically, apart some really small edits to connection and usb or HW tests.. another interesting thing is that the firmware has a sort of AOSP base but need tons of work to have it fully functional.. F.e setting is "aosp" looking and works also on stock roms, but some part are FC because code is missing; launcher is basically useless, but is an "aosp" one as well
most interesting service apps are missing a connection to a tool (i believe) since it throws a popup saying :
Code:
[HMT] init failed
or
[HMT] not connected
anyone knows which could be? anyone familiar to this?
so in the end i am posting it just as general pourpose and cherrypicking of usefull apps, unless we can find what is missing so we could actually fix lots of issues!!!!

I really dunno because i had mine already tripped long before..! I think it should because they are not supposed to trip knox to fix it, but the selinux permissive kernel could give you troubles!!! Seriously !! Lots of thing may go wrong.. First of all is not out of the box compiled by samsung, but is repacked by me! So no chance it has original signature
You could try this app

The thing is that when they flashed it on my device they have a compiled one with samsung original signature.. Mine is a repack so it doesn't have the original signature so it is likely that if you flash with odin you can end up with tripped knox, because bootloader doesn't read samsung sig and voids it

No i can't.. Did you even read the first post?
The thing is that when they flashed it on my device they have a compiled one with samsung original signature.. Mine is a repack so it doesn't have the original signature so it is likely that if you flash with odin you can end up with tripped knox, because bootloader doesn't read samsung sig and voids it

Regardless, Service firmwares always contain an engineering boot loader. as it allows them to flash what ever they need retaining the current knox state. it also unlocks the protected memory, and has a whole suite of debugging commands enabled for service utilities.
SO again i state if you have not updated this device since you got it back (eg, flashed a tar with a public sboot in it) you should consider dumping yours as its most likely an engineering one for the G920F.

I just received a new device. Here's what I found out.
I tried to use a kernel (by mistake) from another carrier and when you do this, there's Samsung software that recognizes that's not a Sprint Kernel and it locks up the device. That's what was told to me.
@Wuby986 Do you have any screenshots? I would like to see the aosp stuff that includes before I install it to my phone
Thanks
