[Root whit Knox] - New Guide - Root S4 Mini I9195 - (Knox Warranty Void: 0x1) - Galaxy S 4 Mini General

On XXUBMJ7 whit Knox I made THIS next (Old Guide) to have all root and THIS to delete Knox appl.
For who don't need the Knox like me.
Like I make on another Knox Devices and work well:
(Note: Take care. If we flash something like recovery, root... the Knox Warranty Void turn to 0x1. This flag at 0x1 is not reversible. We see it in Download Mode)
(I havn't trouble whit. My flag is already 0x1.)
NEW GUIDE:
For now is easiest for me to root the S4 Mini I9195. I have now installed the XXUBNB1 Rom working well. I made this:
1- If I want make a clean install I wipe data + cache + dalvik before. But usually I flash over /data from Rom before. Work well.
2- Flash the Rom by Odin3 v3.09 - Reboot.
3- Power off and on Odin I flash the Customer Recovery philz_touch_6.12.8_serranoltexx.tar.md5 from HERE. Reboot.
4- Power off and Power + Home + Vol up to go to new Recovery. When appear the yellow line on screen we must pull up the finger from Power, but stay another two finger's until appear the Recovery.
4- On Recovery I flash the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.80. On 4.2.2 we must begin always whit this version in my opinion. I update after by a SuperSU-v1.93 I have on extSdCard (Or from Play Store). Reboot.
5- I touch on icon SuperSU to invalidate the Knox and update SU in case v1.93.
6- I install the Sterycson Busybox from apk I have, or from Play Store. After download it, I touch on icon to install the Busybox on /system/xbin.
Now, root alright. To confirm I use Root Verifier from M. Kambur (Play Store).
7- To delete all Knox appl I flash by recovery the Debloat-V5-Knox attached from spitya. Thanks @spitya.
It's all. I have my S4 Mini I9195 rooted, whit a good Recovery and working well.
Note: My Mod.CSC TPH to flash by Customer Recovery to Portuguese Members on Post #28 pag3.

OLD GUIDE 2:
Continue here like backup.
From today 20.01.2014, there are:
- New recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.6-serranoltexx.tar.zip. And
- New S4Mini_RootKit_v2.zip (contains SuperSU v1.89 and BusyBox v1.21.1) ( And to root better Knox Rom's 4.2.2 and future 4.3+)...
...On this THREAD from @arco68 Dev. You must use this guide to have Root on Knox Rom's.
My old guide continue here like backup to help someone that have any issues.
===============================================================================
OLD GUIDE 1:
1- First of all I have a appl superuser.apk (SuperSU v1.80) on extSdCard.
2- Flash by Odin the recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.6-serranoltexx.tar.zip. Reboot.
3- Power off. On recovery by Power + Home + Vol-up I flash the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.80.zip from Chainfire. Thanks @Chainfire . Root but not Busybox.
4- After reboot the SuperSU can stop sometimes, it is installed on system/app and Knox not permit all access at system.
5- Then, whit Explorer from Rom I go at extSdCard and touch on superuser.apk and install it. This way the apk is installed on data/app. Root solved.
6- Now we can touch on icon SuperSU, this start and ask us to invalidate Knox (Only from 1.80). We must say Yes.
7- Installed Busybox 1.22.1 of Stericson from Play Store. Verified whit "Root Verifier". It's all, we have all root now.
8- The SuperSU must be Updated from Play Store.
Thanks also @arco68 (Recovery), @Stericson (Busybox) and @kanbur (Root Verifier).
EDIT1 on 10.01.2014: Used this guide also whit news Roms whit Knox: BMK3, BML1, BML2 and BML4. My Knox Bootloader now is XXUBML4. Are all alright.
EDIT2: 27.01.2014 - Now whit XXUBNA1 (Bootloader = NA1).
EDIT3: 20.01.2014 - Today new CWM recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.6-serranoltexx.tar.zip

Ups didn't saw that lol
Btw, i have this version installed TPH-I9195XXUAMH2-20130902095747 with root. This firmware don't have the knox flag in download mode yet, maybe because it is a older firmware... Do you know if i install a newer version in the meantime (an updated version of stock) via ODIN the knox flag will change? Or only if i flash something via ODIN after the updated firmware?
Thanks

If You flash by Odin one Knox Rom from MJ7, the first, the flag stay at 0x0. Only change to 0x1 if we flash something more by Odin, like a Customer Recovery. After flash this recovery, when go to it by Power + Home + Vol-Up we see on top in yellow the message "Set Warranty bit: Recovery".
Whit the Knox Bootloader all is controlled whit this bootloader, kernel, modem, recovery, system... If we replace a modem we see on top at boot "Set Warranty bit: modem".
And we can't downgrade to an older firmware. The Knox bootloader installed not permit.
See my try on Galaxy Mega. I have the Knox Rom ML1 and tried to flash the older Rom not Knox MJ2. Many problems. Returned to ML1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49113973&postcount=96
Think if is better to stop on last non Knox MJ1.

I installed UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.89.zip from CWM. No further steps was done, so i believe Superuser.apk installed to /system/app,
as we can see in META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary from that zip.
Once again, any root apps i try on device getting root permissions np. Including su in terminal app.
SU ask me to give permission, etc.
su in adb shell just do nothing but return exit code '1'. No request for permission on screen, nothing.
I would ask in SuperSU original topic, but i dont have posts enough to write there...
Thanks for reply.

From the .zip UPDATE-..., folder commom copy the superuser.apk to sdcard. Touch on it and You have the option Install. Touch on install and the superuser is installed on data/app like eu.chainfire.supersu-x.apk. Reboot and sometimes the SuperSU from here work better (Whit the Knox). It's normal here because on update from Play Store it goes to data/app.

HELP! SuperSU has been forced to stop WITH [i9505-cwm-recovery] & [SuperSU-v1.65.zip]

HELP! SuperSU has been forced to stop WITH [i9505-cwm-recovery] & [SuperSU-v1.65.zip]
Phone = I9505
Firmware = I9505ZHUDMI1
Recovery = i9505-cwm-recovery-6.0.3.2-4.tar (flashed by Odin)
su = UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip (flashed by cwm-recovery)
Now the phone keeping prompt message "SuperSU has been forced to stop ..."
In this situation, I have tried to flash the "CF-Auto-Root" by Odin, but I got error message from Odin "flash failed" and then the phone cannot boot, it said "firmware upgrade error .." I have to re-flash the cwm-recovery again by Odin to make the phone bootable.
Then I tried Chinfire's suggestion (h t t p s : / / p l u s . g o o g l e .c o m / +Chainfire/posts/5ggu7naWtaW) to turn off the KNOX - the prevention information was created by the KNOX.
Run the command "pm disable com.sec.knox.seandroid" in terminal emulator on the phone. As the su has been killed time to time, the terminal emulator cannot really complete the "su" command, then cause the "pm disable com.sec.knox.seandroid" cannot completed. So cannot turn off the KNOX.
I really need the phone been fully rooted without the "Prevention information".
Could anybody help me on this issue?

Yes, I flashed the ZHAME3 (includes PIT, PDA, PHONE and CSC) by odin.
Then the knox warranty related text dispeared from the recovery screen.
And then I flashed the ZHBMF4 (includes PIT, PDA, PHONE and CSC) by odin, rooted with CF-Auto-Root. Now the phone works perfectly!
Before big mans conquered the KNOX, I would like stay at the BMF4 version.

Disabling KNOX Using Terminal Emulator
This method requires root access on your device.
Download and install the Terminal Emulator app on your phone or tablet.
Launch the app on your device and grant it root permission when prompted.
When you see the command box, type the following command:
su pm disable com.sec.knox.seandroid
Doing this will disable Samsung Knox on your device
Alternative Method To Disable KNOX
Download and install an app that is capable of freezing system apps on Android devices. Titanium Backup is a good option. Open TB when it is installed and freeze the following apps:
com.sec.enterprise.knox.attestation
com.sec.knox.eventsmanager
KLMS Agent
KNOX
Knox Notification Manager
KNOX Store
2. Alternative Method to Disable KNOX (CWM/TWRP required)
download the zip (see attachment)
and flash it
If you have the latest bootloader, you can't delete set Warranty bit: Kernel because the bootloader find out, if kernel is signed or not. You cannot downgrade the bootloader.

(ROOT) (CUSTOM RECOVERY) FOR MOTO G 1st GEN

Hello, guys this is my first post but i am quite sure that my methods work.If there any problems then u can surely ask in the section below. This thread will be a GUIDE TO ROOT AND INSTALL CUSTOM RECOVERY FOR MOTO G 1st Gen users.
Some prerequisites are:
1. Motorola drives (https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481)
2.Fastboot and recovery files (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/9jf2va51ffg0pzq/AAAxDT-ETf7AESIcHGnfEgv7a?dl=0)
[ Let these files be downloaded and kept in Cdrive of ur pc and and place them on the desktop.. Please name this folder MOTO FILES]
3. SuperSu files https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/ and[/url] paste it in ur phones internal memory and please do this after unlocking the bootloader cause bootloader unlocking will delete everything so its better to do it after unlocking bootloader
Download these files and ur done... Now lets continue to the fun part
This process involves three very simple steps :
1. Unlocking the Bootloader:-
This process is infact very easy to do. There are several guides on the internet regarding this process but the one that i suggest is by High On Android/ Max Lee . Follow his method and u can very easily unlock ur bootlader. Copy this url and see it for urself fellow guys...http://highonandroid.com/android-smartphones/how-to-unlock-bootloader-on-motorola-android-smartphone
2. Erasing ur previous recovery and installing a new one and rooting ur phone all in one process
Some users have been reporting that even after installing custom recovery , whenever they go into recovery they enter into stock recovery. The actual problem is that the stock rom of the Moto G rewrites over the new custom recovery installed.
So we have to install the recovery actually twice but it only takes a few minutes
i) Firstly be sure to have lots of juice in your phone
ii) Boot ur phone into the bootloader by power offing ur device and then pressing the volume down and power button together for 10 seconds and then leaving both of them together.
iii) Now connect ur device to ur pc/laptop
iv) Now open a cmd and enter the following commands(press enter after every command)
- cd Desktop
-cd MOTO FILES
-fastboot flash recovery Recovery2.img
-fastboot reboot-bootloader
[MAKE SURE NOT TO REBOOT UR DEVICE ]
v) Now ur phone has custom recovery installed in it and u shud now enter into recovery mode by choosing the option from the bootloader, by pressing volume down and then volume up while in bootloader mode.
vi) This will open the Philz recovery that i have provided with. I prefer the philz recovery over the cwm one. Now go on and install the SuperSu update zip file. And BOOM ur Device is now rooted !!!!.
vii) Now reboot ur phone and u must install
-ROOT CHECKER (to check root)
- and most importantly ROOT EXPLORER
viii) After following step (vii), now if u try to go into recovery, u will be booted to stock recovery. So to prevent that use the ROOT EXPLORER app and go to the root \system\etc and delete the file named install-recovery.sh .
ix) After deleting the file u will once again have to follow step (iv) and install custom recovery this will ensure u having custom recovery even after rebooting ur device and u will have ROOT access as well
On which android version , were you on before rooting . 5.01 or 5.1 .
This method works for both 5.1 and 5.01

if u want to install twrp recovery and u have its file then i will suggest u to use my method that i have given above and instead writing the command
fastboot flash recovery Recovery2.img u can change it to fastboot flash recovery [name of the recovery file, dont forget the .img at the end]. Thats all u have to do. I saw that video prior to installing custom recovery in my phone too and noticed that his link was broken thats how i figured out my method of installing custom recovery. Its very easy. just follow the steps. :good::good::good:

Sorry! Root access is not properly installed on this device
Works but could be simplified
Thanks for this useful post. I've just followed the instructions to root my XT1032 Stock Lollipop 5.1, and they work. However, I have a few comments:
[1] I had already installed Motorola Device Manager on my (Windows 7) PC, plus 'Minimal ADB and Fastboot'. This was sufficient – I didn't need to download the files in your prerequisite 2.
[2] You can use any compatible recovery image. I prefer TWRP, so downloaded openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-xt1032.img.
[3] The SuperSu zip file you've linked to is out of date. The current one is version 2.46 (for Lollipop).
[4] After flashing SuperSu it's advisable to wipe the cache and Dalvik cache.
[5] Root Checker showed that BusyBox wasn't installed, so I downloaded Stephen Erickson's BusyBox installer from the Play Store. This is an essential step, as most programs requiring root won't work without BusyBox. Perhaps it could be added to the OP?
[6] You don't need to use Root Explorer – any root-compatible file manager will do. I prefer Total Commander.
[7] Having deleted (or in my case renamed) install-recovery.sh and then rebooted, I didn't need to go back to step iv and reinstall the custom recovery; in my case TWRP was still there. I think your step ix is unnecessary; at least it's worth checking which recovery you have.
I hope these points are useful and not too nit-picking!

Reinstallation of custom recovery is not must its just for safety precautions and I have finally updated the SuperSu link. As far as Busybox u will have to install it customly only.

[Guide] New and Easiest method for root ALL Galaxy S5 Mini (G800) on Lollipop 5.1.1

BETA: All this is still in testing!
Jump to:
- ODIN flashable devices
- Fastboot flashable devices
REQUESTS AND DISCUSSION
The central CF-Auto-Root thread can be found here on XDA-Developers.com. Use that thread for requests for new roots and generic discussion. Most device models have their own dedicated threads on XDA, please keep discussion about those specific models in that dedicated thread, and don't litter the central thread with them.
NO REDISTRIBUTION
Please link directly to this page, or use the link you find in the table below.
NO WARRANTY
Use at your own risk, I'm not responsible for bricking your device.
GET THE RIGHT FILE
Make sure you get the correct file. Using the incorrect file may brick your device.
FLASH COUNTER
If your target device has a custom firmware flash counter, CF-Auto-Root will trigger it. If you're lucky, Triangle Away has support for your device and can be used to reset the counter.
KNOX WARRANTY
If you have a KNOX-enabled device, using CF-Auto-Root will trip the KNOX WARRANTY VOID status !
ENCRYPTION
Warning: If your device storage is encrypted, using CF-Auto-Root will wipe your data !
ANDROID VERSION
When newer firmwares are released for a certain device, sometimes that firmware includes new bootloaders that prevent kernels based on the old firmwares from booting. This usually coincides with a transition to a newer Android version. In that case, the CF-Auto-Root for download here may no longer work - flashing or booting might fail. It is too much work for me to keep track of all these firmwares, so if you encounter this issue, it is up to you to submit the recovery.img file from the latest firmware for your device to the CF-Auto-Root thread on XDA-Developers.com.
To be clear, just because you have a newer Android version than listed here, does NOT mean the CF-Auto-Root will not work - there's a good chance that it will!
How 2 falsh it?
ODIN flashable devices
BASIC INSTRUCTIONS
All downloads contain .tar.md5 files flashable in ODIN as PDA.
Make sure your device is in ODIN download mode (usually you can get there by holding VolDown+Home+Power when the device is turned off), then start the included Odin3-v1.85.exe file, press the PDA button, select the .tar.md5 file, and click Start. You can find more detailed instructions and assistance at XDA.
A modified recovery and cache partition will be flashed, which will install (only) SuperSU, then clean-up the cache partition and re-flash the stock recovery.
For the root to work, the device must reboot into recovery. Most devices will do this automatically after flashing these files, but in case that does not happen, please boot into recovery manually.
UNLOCK BOOTLOADERS
If you have locked bootloaders, flashing one of these will probably brick your device - with the exception of Nexus devices, which will usually automatically "OEM unlock" and wipe your data !

Before you root you should factory reset your phone then go to the about phone and click on the system update to register your device.
OR
Go to the application manager and uninstall the security policy update if there is this option.
2-flash the file to your phone (CF-auto root) and (do not connect to the internet) download the uninstaller pro and uninstall knox and knox ll and security policy and security agent now the root is safe.
(If the supersu said: There is no supersu binary flash the cf auto again to uninstall those apps)

Your Welcome man.
Thanks for your feedback.
I use unbranded Lollipop 5.1..1. on G800F. After flashing root I ended up at bootloop.
Could not get rid of it despite cache wipe/factory reset. Tried 3 times, same result.
Is there a way to get rif of bootloop to have root on G800F?
For g800h files is for 4.4.2 not for 5.1.1, do not flash this files with lollipop you brick phone

No, I have used original Cyprus ROM and flashed hidden.img following these instructions:
First of all install Samsung usb drivers http://developer.samsung.com/technic...000000117#none (probably dont need if you have kies installed)
Make sure you have SM-G800F, download http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/d...FVFG1BOL1_CYV/
Extract (unzip) the firmware file
Download Odin v3.10.7 - http://dl.sammobile.com/Odin3_v3.10.7.zip
Extract Odin ZIP file
Open Odin v3.10.7
Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes
If you have problems with hidden.img during flash, then:
Remove usb cable and battery,
Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
Add PIT file: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960685133 (re-partition option will tick automatically, is ok)
Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes
Done.

[Guide] Rooting G800F on Marshmallow 6.0.1 + getting Xposed framework

UPDATE 14.05.2017: Chainfire has released autoroot for Galaxy S5 Mini G800F based on firmware 6.0.1. It can be downloaded from the official CF Autoroot website (direct link to the G800F file). It is by far the easiest and fastest method for getting root access on your device without the need for TWRP.
Procedure for rooting with CF autoroot:
1. Charge your S5 Mini's battery to at least 80% and make sure you have Samsung USB drivers installed on your PC
2. Enable USB debugging on the S5 Mini
3. Download the CF autoroot file from the link above and unpack the zip archive
4. Open ODIN as administrator (right click -> Run as administrator)
5. Put the S5 Mini in download mode and connect it via USB cable to the PC
6. After ODIN recognizes the device, click "AP" and select the autoroot file
7. Click "Start" and wait for the process to finish - shouldn't take more than a few seconds
8. When the log in ODIN says "Disconnected", unplug the USB cable from the phone and wait for it to restart itself
9. Verify proper root with a tool like Root Checker
If you want to have TWRP recovery and Xposed framework, use the guide below.
This method applies only to the S5 Mini G800F variant running Android 6.0.1. Trying this on other variants may result in bricking your device. I used this procedure to get root access and Xposed working on my European S5 Mini G800F using a German (DBT) Marshmallow firmware. Use at your own risk, I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your device. Note that this procedure voids your warranty. This guide assumes that you already have TWRP recovery or know how to flash it.
Backup everything important like contacts and photos before you begin.
Requirements for this method to work:
unrooted Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini G800F running official stock Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow
Samsung USB driver
enable USB debugging
charge your phone's battery to 100% just in case
TWRP Recovery 3.0.2 installed Official TWRP Recovery 3.1.1 is available now - check out this thread for download links
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT RECOVERY: Official TWRP now available
Procedure for getting root access:
1. Download Chainfire's SuperSU v2.78 SR5 [link] and store the zip file in the phone's internal memory or SD card.
2. Boot into TWRP recovery, navigate to the SuperSU zip and flash it, reboot after it finishes.
3. You should now see the SuperSU icon, open it and update the binary. Verify proper root with a tool like Root Checker.
Congratulations, you have successfully rooted your G800F! If you only want root - stop here, you're done.
Procedure for getting Xposed Framework:
1. After rooting your S5 Mini, download Xposed v87.1 built by wanam [link], Xposed uninstaller [link], and Xposed Installer APK [link]. Put all 3 files on the phone's internal memory or SD card.
2. Boot into TWRP recovery, navigate to the file named "xposed-v87.1-sdk23-arm-custom-build-by-wanam-20161125.zip" and flash it.
3. After the flashing is finished, wipe cache and dalvik then reboot.
4. Using a file manager, navigate to where you put the Xposed Installer APK and install it.
5. Open it and confirm that Xposed is installed properly.
weird enough all those files where already on my pc. i just wanted to know if it would work

When you flash the SuperSU observe the log during the process, does it reboot by itself after posting this?
Code:
******************
SuperSU installer
******************
- Mounting /system, /data and rootfs
- Extracting files
- Detecting system compatibility
If it reboots after this, turn off your phone and boot into recovery, go to "Wipe" and wipe cache and dalvik. Immediately after that try to flash the SuperSU again, if successful it should post this:
Code:
******************
SuperSU installer
******************
- Mounting /system, /data and rootfs
- Extracting files
- Detecting system compatibility
- System-less mode, boot image support required
- Creating image
- Mounting image
- Creating paths
- Removing old files
- Placing files
******************
Boot image patcher
******************
and then some more lines, at the end it should say "Done!" and then give you the option to reboot. Remember if the flashing is successful you should reboot manually, if the phone reboots by itself then the flashing failed.
Note that I always recommend to start with a freshly installed firmware i.e. wipe the entire phone, flash new firmware, flash TWRP 3.0.0 and then flash SuperSU.
Thank you very much for your instant support. I'm currently traveling and I'll try your solutions once I'm back home again. Then, I'll provide an update whether it works or not.

Does this root trigger the knox counter?
Hello, had the same problem . No root after reboot.
You need to use an older twrp.
With 2.8.1.0 it all works
i did it!
it works but you gotta have twrp 3.0.2-0 and then flash the zip file.
pop ups where blocked so i just changed it from always ask to always allow.
you gotta install twrp 3.0.0-0 and then flash the twrp 3.0.2-0 .img to recovery.
after that just flash the superSU zip and your done.
hope it works for you

It seems that the culprit for the failed rooting were the different versions of TWRP you were using. I will add links to 2 versions of TWRP and a note about this in the main post.
