Warnings don't bother me, but I would like to have the ability to reset the KNOX flag in case the phone needs to go back for warranty repair.

Is KNOX resettable to zero in that way or is it irreversible?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kriptik210:
Sadly once KNOX is tripped there is no going back
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] aarongillion63:
It is programmatically permanent. Meaning that there isn't a method of resetting it via software but only by hardware (board replacement etc). There will soon be a Riffbox solution where you can reflash the bootloader by a serial port, you will undoubtedly have to solder the tiny wires to the microscopic solder points on the board. (Yikes) We hope to god that someone finds a knox exploit soon.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] j111:
Thanks everyone for the replies!

WOW! Hard to believe. So no one with a newer S4 or S5 can root without voiding warranty? No going back? That's terrible.

I wonder if this means less people are rooting these days. Darn, I want to get rid of bloat, but warranty is important to me.

I assumed with the advent of the S5, someone had figured it out. Here's to hoping someone does.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kriptik210:
People have been reporting that they have sent there phone in on a warranty with KNOX tripped to 0x1 and getting it back with KNOX set back to 0x0. I guess it's a hit or miss.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
I have yet to hear a report about warrenty being denied due to knox. So it's not a real worry. At least not yet.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] j111:
How fast does KNOX increase?

Does Knox increase EVERY time you load a new ROM, or a new recovery, or re-root?

That is, once it goes to 0x1 does it stay there, or if you are playing around a lot, does it quickly go 0x2, 0x3, and up and up and up?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kriptik210:
It stays at 0x1. Nothing happens to your phone in general. It still operates the same.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
I think it goes up, have read in the forum about counter going up to 3+.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Kriptik210:
Thats a first for me. How and why would it go up? Just curious.

Don't know, I'm on the MDL bootloader, but have heard of the count going uo.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
No. The knox counter does not go up. Its either tripped or it isnt.

The flash counter goes up everytime you flash something in odin, but not when you flash stuff in recovery.

Flash counter and knox are 2 different things

Well, if you've been flashing ROMs for a while without bricking or messing up your phone, then tripping KNOX shouldn't be an issue. All KNOX is is an alarm for Samsung to know if you've done anything to void your device. So if you ever do brick your phone or anything, even if it's hardware issue on their end, they can then say you're the blame just because they know you tampered with it. Even if it's their own fault. But if you know what you're doing, then it really doesn't matter. And they still won't really know until you try and turn it in one day and they look to see if the trip counter is 0x1 or 2 or 3. If it's 0x0 then it's good to them.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
That is just not correct. Knox is absolutely not just a way for Samsung to see if you have messed with the phone.

Its a security feature to allow the device to qualify as a secure system for business use. Some enterprise software won't work if the knox flag is tripped. That allows it to be more secure as you can't simply hide root so a root checking app will still function.

This prevents data theft for businesses. That is what knox is there for. It was not put in as a warranty check.

Knox

Here is the good news. I called up samsung support about the knox issue as I am sending one of my phones out for warranty repair. I do not have knox installed on the phone in question. I asked about what is going on with knox and if it is tripped, will I not be able to utilize my remaining time on my warranty. I got forwarded to one of the experts on the warranty repair/knox solutions. The expert said that even if knox is tripped, samsung will honor warranties. The individual also said that samsung is currently phasing out knox on future systems as they got a ton of feedback on how customers disliked the "feature".

So it looks good for us consumers. :) :victory:

I installed the latest firmware for my device using fastboot to do firmware only and not the full RUU. Now am having a strange issue and was curious if I could get some help. When I power off the phone and plug my charger in it displays the battery with the lighting bolt and flashing LED. What is strange is that the battery icon will stay the same and the LED will flash and the only way I can get it to release from this mode is by holding the power button down until the home and back button stop flashing at the bottom at that time the phone will go blank and boot fully. I would like to leave my device off at night and still charge so any help would be greatly appreciated. Currently running T-Mobile HTC One with Venom Rom and ElementalX kernal.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sophia Zhao:
Yeah, all the tear down videos showed that it's easier to replace S5 LCD screen. If you want to save money, you can choose to DIY, but you should prepare complete tools and must have items such as the front screen adhesive besides an original LCD screen. You can do it as the guide paying attention to the details such as flex cable. The last, because of DIY, so you'd better regard your phone a none waterproof device any more to avoid risk.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] me:
I may have asked about this in another thread, but I'm not sure, and the thread may have died.

I have the T-Mobile (USA) MDA, still with the original (1.8.10.2?) ROM, bought in March, have not done a ROM upgrade on it before.

Now, since I hear 2.26 is much better, I'm thinking of upgrading. Probably to the new official 2.26 ROM, but also considering Xelencin's final version.

I have spent many hours installing programs and tweaking settings, however, and I am not eager to start that all over from scratch. I don't remember everything I did before, so I might have difficulty getting back all the same settings.

I have SPB Backup, and at first thought I could do a backup before the ROM upgrade, and restore it after the upgrade. However, although I have read a few posts on this board and others from people who said they have done that successfully, the prevalent opinion seems to be that one shouldn't do this, that one could end up with a non-functional unit.

I have heard, however, that the new version of Sprite Backup (5.1) has a feature called something like "Device Upgrade Mode", and with that mode one can successfully backup the unit, do a ROM upgrade, and restore the backup, with the original apps and settings intact.

Normally I would not consider paying $30 for Sprite Backup, when I already have SPB Backup, which in general I'm quite satisfied with. However, if this upgrade mode really works well, and one can restore after the ROM upgrade with most of one's apps and settings intact, it would probably be worth the $30 to save the hours of work that would be involved in reconfiguring my MDA.

Has anyone here tried the Sprite Backup 5.1 "device upgrade" mode, in conjunction with any ROM upgrade of a PPC? Has anyone used it with this particular ROM upgrade? IF so, please report on how well that worked. Thank you.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] me:
No one reading has tried the Sprite Backup 5.1 "Device Upgrade Mode", in conjunction with the ROM upgrade?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Ana55044:
Did this today!

My boyfriend upgraded to the new Sprite 5.1, did a full back up, flashed to the new T-Mobile ROM, and then restored to the back up from the original ROM with virtually no problems at all. The only minor hang up that he had was a conflict with Resco File Explorer and SPB Pocket Plus. He had links displayed on his today screen with SPB Pocket Plus that opened Resco File Explorer folders. With this setup the MDA would boot, but then hang as it attempted to load the today screen. Once the today screen shortcuts were disabled it worked great. I would recommend turning off the SPB today screen shortcuts before doing the back up in Sprite 5.1. Then, after the restore, re-enable.

He's Extremely happy with how it worked out!

I also have the MDA and recently flashed to the new ROM, however I didn't do as much research as he did and I reinstalled everything. I went through a lot more work than he did, but am equally as happy with the new ROM.

The one thing I would like to find a hack/fix for is the Wi-Fi being disabled at startup. I posted a topic awhile back asking the same question with absolutely no responses! Does anyone know if there is a way to make it "allways on" or automatically enable at startup/boot? Thanks!

Always fully charge your phone up to 100% and wait a couple hours then disconnect.

Don't disconnect cable while charging.

Always drain the battery till the phone off or 1% left.

I know this by testing it to my LG L3 e400.

At the beginning the phone only had about 2 days standby time. Now it's 7 days 19 hours standby time.

Don't forget to use a good Rom.

Do this at your own risk.

Idk but totally draining your battery can do more harm than good for it. Charging it at around 20% percent is fair enough. Discharging it once a month can be helpful as it resets your charge cycle.

Lithium ion/polymer is not the same as NiCad. You don't need to peak charge, nor fully discharge lithium batteries. In fact, they're healthiest with a moderate charge. NiCads could develop "memory" if not properly maintained and conditioned, where they'd prematurely dump and/or not reach their max charge. Lithium batteries don't.

My M8 GPE doesn't automatically switch between LTE and 3G depending on signal strength like my iPhone does (and as they always have).

I get solid LTE while I'm outside, but horrible LTE while I'm inside at school and at home. If I manually switch to 3G, I get full bars of service indoors, but it's really annoying to do that all the time. Is Android supposed to switch network types on the fly? If not, is there an so that will do it for me? Thanks!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] eunkipark92:
so one of my friend gave me a galaxy s3 today, it vibrates when i click power button, and after that the blue light on the top lights up.

and the capacity button lights up however screen is black. cant hear any volumes either.

i tried to boot into recovery, and download mode but the screen is pitch black. i tried holding volume up, home power button then after waiting few seconds click volume up button( screen is still pitch black) then connected to my computer.

my computer and odin can recognize the phone, so i tried flashing stock rom but no go, screen is still pitch black.

so i thought it was the screen that was the problem. i happened to have another galaxy s 3 lying around so i disassembled both of the phones and switched motherboard. and the screen works noproblem. so im guessing its the motherboard that is the problem.

is it possible that motherboard is dead? even though my computer can recognize the phone?

or could it be like damaged?

well i guess i could try and download another rom and flashing it again but wanted to know if anyone had similar problems before.

any suggestions?

Sounds like the digitizer is shot.

Should be a semi cheap fix at the right shop.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Could be the digitizer, or it could be a dead gpu. Did you ever overclock or anything like that? Did you plug the supposedly bad mobo into the good phone to see what happens? Inspect the ribbon and solder poonts really closely too.

nono the screen works, i siwtched motherboard and digitizer screen everything is working.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Theres probably not much you can do other than getting a new motherboard then.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] eunkipark92:
could it be like brick? or something like jtag can fix? is there anything i can do through cmd?

i just want to make sure before i go ahead and buy motherboard.

if i can connect it to computer and computer recognizes motherboard isnt dead right?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Motherboard itself is not dead, but a component on it most likely is. Like I mentioned earlier, could be the gpu. If that failed it would explain why you get nothing on the screen.

But no, its not a brick in the usual sense. If it were, the red led would come on when connected to the computer and it would show QHS_USB in device manager. Odin would not be able to see it.

You can try getting it into download mode (hold vol down, home and power when booting up. Then press volume up after a few seconds) do not hold power long or itll just hard reboot. Then try to odin flash the firmware.

If that doesnt bring it back then its definitely hardware failure.

Lets say you have a postion to X issue. It does not matter what. This is just the scenario.

The person Z comes and says: " Oh well, its morally wrong to do X"

Of course, in the room there are 20 or so people, so you dont want to sound extreme or "incorrect" because they are important to you.

Now the problem here is that if you support X, you may end up sounding too "Arrogant".

If you support person Z, you are admitting to have been wrong or immoral for having hold such a stance before.

Is there a term to this type of situation? I tried Moral Slippery Slope, Morality Slipery Slope, Moral Trap and so on on Google/Bing/Etc, nothing found.

This scenario is from a real life situation I had a short while back. Of course I could go full head on and crush my oppostion for using a fallacy against me but since the debate is recorded, I dont want to risk it.

Now If anyone can find the right term, I would be happy. PM me if you dont want to.

Its not that their opinion matters, its that the debate is recorded that matters to me.

Now the debate is solved, I used a different way to exit the debate but for the sake of knowledge, I would like to know what the right term is.

Suffice to say "Morality Trap" is used by politicians a lot.

TL: DR

Whats the term when you are in a moral deadlock. Cant support your position because of correctness and have to counter the "argument" of the opposition.
