Private Mode Fix on Stock Rom after xposed framework - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Maybe my private mode stopped working after installing xposed framework.
After Searching a lot for the Private mode fix , i got few zip files. But none worked.
After flashing zip my Private mode and Finger Print service broke with > Unfortunately Private Mode and Fingerprint has stopped.
I had few Photos stored in Private Mode and had no back up of it.
Finally I did this, and it worked for me. Even you guys can try this out.
Backup these files first:
/data/privatemode -------> This folder contains all the files locked in private mode
/data/system/fingerprintpassword.key
/data/system/personalbackuppin.key
/data/system/personalfingerprintpassword.key
/data/system/personalpattern.key
also
/data/system/users/privatemode_edk_1000
and uninstall xposed framework and its apk with its uninstaller, you will find it in this site itself.
Now comes the point of luck, Software update
I was thinking to finally update my software if there was any, luckily I checked and i had a software update. But it cannot be updated from mobile as it has been rooted.
Download: Samsung SmartSwitch/Samsung Kies and use it for software update.
After the update root your phone with Auto-root and then restore the files you've back up of.
Before that have a Nandroid backup of all your data for safety.
I am not sure how this works out for you guys, but i guess its worth trying once.
ALL THE BEST , TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK. :good:
Hope it helps you.

Private mode will not work

Hello, I'm pretty new to all this but I was hoping I could get an explanation/ solution to what is going on.
I recently rooted my galaxy s5 and everything was working fine, sometime after installing xposed framework I noticed I could not access my private mode pictures. It would say unable to enable, please try again. I looked around on here for a while and believe it has something to do with knox.
I checked out this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/mod-enable-private-mode-knox-0x1-t2904723 however I am unsure exactly what it is I need to do.
If anyone can help me out with either a fix or a way to retrieve the pictures stuck in private mode that would be great.
Sorry I'm not well versed in this knowledge.

Wifi stopped working on SM-T555

Hello, i am new to this forum so please don't be rude if this is the wrong section to post this
Today i managed to perma-kill my wifi by starting Pry-Fi and uninstalling it at the same time (shame on me)
Now my wifi seems completely dead it doesn't even try to start.
Things i tried already:
Rebooted with Airplane mode
Used the advanced repair method of the Wifi Connection Manager app
Tried to reset my network/carrier settings with a weird USSD code that didn't work.
Checked /persistent/ and found out that there is no wifi/ folder so i created it inclusive .macaddr file after this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/wifi-stuck-t2721643/post60011636
Also i used adbGUI to gather this info: http://pastebin.com/raw/X4kmCn5s
Specs: Samsung Galaxy Tab 9.3? (SM-T555)
Android 5.1.1 Stock (ROOT)
TWRP 2.8.7.1
Please help me to recover my network without resetting the whole tablet ♥

Ok, there is no way to restore your network settings because it might be older or newer than the framework itself so your device is going to crash anyways. So you are going to reset it the Official and Samsung way (might not work with custom roms if you have it installed it on your device). Reply to me if you have installed a custom rom.
As I have told other people who are new to XDA,
(BACKUP YOUR SAMSUNG AND GOOGLE ACCOUNTS AND DATA! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES AND LOSSES!)
Download Samsung SmartSwitch
Open up the installer and finish it
Then press the More button on the application
Press Device Initialization
Press Device Initialization again in the new tab
Type in your model number and your serial number (Don't press search yet!)
Plug in your device
Turn off your device and go to Download Mode (Volume Down + Power Button + Home Button)
It will say if you want to install a Custom Rom, blah blah blah
Press Volume Up button and it should take you to Download Mode
Go back to the PC and press search
Samsung SmartSwitch should download files and it will come out with the Admin Delegator Privileges
Grant the permission to it
Your new and updated firmware should be downloading
It usually takes 10 minutes to 3 hours depending on how good your Wi-Fi and your computer is.
If I helped smash that Thanks button!
I've already done this steps tonight and also upgraded to Android 6 this way. Now i only have to know how to get the apps and obbs recovered from the TWRP backup i made before ^^

s health and secure folder doesn't work after updating to 7.0

hi guys
i have a problem in some apps and features
i was in 6.0 and install xposed and root then i update to 7.0 , now i can't use s health and secure folder it giving me these messages
i try to re install the update from odin with the 4 files then i try from Smart Switch the emergency software recovery and initialization , and it is give me the same problem
s health saying your device has been compromised (0x110060561)
secure folder cannot be set up because unauthorized software was installed on the device
Then you most likely tripped KNOX at some point. With the latest updates, if KNOX is tripped, Samsung blocks you completely from the program.
Youre going to have to re root, then follow this guide for S Health.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/guide-how-to-s-health-devices-knox-t3543306
I can't offer any advice on Secure Folder, as I don't use that feature at all.
I know my replies can be long, but would rather give too much info, than not enough.
- Files are updated in accordance with the firmware at SER G935FXXU1DQB7;
- Full support for the work and Knox;
- Full support for the work and Secure folder (a hidden folder, you can turn on and off switches in the panel);
- Supports Samsung Pay (you can enter completely all card details, but after checking the card in 5 seconds says there is no connection to the server).

You have to reroot, you already tripped Knox

i was have same problem with s health and below solve the issue :
i downgrade to Android 6.0.1 by using odin and in CSC you should use CSC_OJV file (not HOME_CSC_OJV ) and then use s health for one time and after that let device update OTA to android 7 again
Just root your phone. Then flash all dm variety and super super su files. then flash superstock kernel. Knox and secure folder will start working. But for S health you will have to change build. Prop value..
Scroll down to ro.config.tima=1 change it to 0. and save. Reboot your phone. and boom it will start working

[SOLVED]Security Notice after Root (J730G)

Hi, let me just get this straight.
I installed TWRP on my J730G and then installed SuperSU afterwards. Tried the available custom roms I can download from here, but unfortunately, there was none that's stable and not buggy for the J730G-DS at the moment.
I had to flash stock firmware from odin and then just installed TWRP and SuperSU alone.
Now, I'm always getting this "Security Notice" notification
(screenshot attached) telling me there was unauthorized actions have been detected and I need to restart.
Restarted my phone several times but Im still getting the notification.
Can anyone help me get rid of this please? Thanks!
Device is a SM-J730G/DS

Correction: The warning appears after rooting. Therefore, after reflashing stock firmware via odin , the warning disappeared but it came back when I rooted the phone.
Managed to get rid of it with the help of @h.nocturna 's guide from the Galaxy S7 Edge: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-s7-edge/how-to/guide-post-root-common-bugs-fixes-t3427600
Bug #3: Notification warning that system has been modified.
Fix #1: Disable com.samsung.android.securitylogagent & com.tmobile.pr.adapt using your favorite package disabler. This will hide all notifications associated with this app as well as the root check that you might have encountered.
Fix #2: This fix requires Xposed. You can follow the instructions to install Xposed HERE.
Then install the Xposed module NotifyClean, activate the module, and reboot the phone. You will then use this app to block the notification under the package com.samsung.android.securitylogagent by clicking on the package so that it is highlighted red. The notification should disappear!
Note: This app can also be used to hide the icon for WiFi Calling if it's annoying you. You can still use the WiFi calling function while hiding the notification.

I think in new samsung devices all roms and root developers say in the steps now you void your warrenty
So you are responsble for what you doing here
Sorry to say that
All you can do try to flash full firmware of your country may be fix samsung pay bot 100% sure
@anurag hacker
since your knox become 0x1, your warranty is void and it effect you based knox app like securefolder, sbrowser private mode, samsung health and also your samsung pay. If you want use the samsung pay you can try search in xda thread about mod samsung pay that can use with rooted device.
Edit: you can try use custom kernel that have fake knox.
There's a simple trick to get s health working
This is the reason I won't root any Samsung phones, unless they're outdated.

Root is far more valuable than some silly secure folder or Samsung pay. Which in any case can all be re-enabled with the right mods.
If you want something secure, store it in the cloud.
If you don't mind about modifying the ROM, then delete this Security Log Agent. It's the part of the Knox suite by the way.
Honestly I wouldn't implement Knox on ANY Samsung phone except for some really serious corporate devices. It's useless. As if Google's partly ugly security patches were not enough, we're also having Knox on our heads.

Struggling to root Samsung SM-T720

Hello, I am somewhat a beginner to these things but know how to do most things, in short - I work in a retail store and from time to time we have these demo tablets that are no longer required from samsung and are usually just disposed of or sold to colleagues for cheap - Only very rarely.
Anyways i purchased a Retail Demo samsung tab S5E (SM-T720) and it had retail mode installed, i uninstalled with the administrator password which i found on our work forum and then installed the latest firmware downloaded via frija - whenever the device starts UP after a fresh install and after connecting to the internet it will install the retail mode again as it has Knox enrollment service which I believe this is the main cause of why I cannot root
Things i have tried - Patched the stock AP file from the firmware I downloaded with Magisk then flashed it, flashed TWRP recovery - flashed magisk zip via there (Causes a bootloop)
I am able to bypass the knox enrollment with a program i found on SamFW but after bypassing i still cannot manage to root, i can use it as a regular device which isnt too bad but would like to root it as well.
Does anyone have any idea on how I could do this and if so is there any tutorial or method around for it.
managed to fix it, it was due to the fact the device didnt have Ramdisk so i had to boot into recovery each time to activate magisk didnt realise until now. rooted successfully now
