To tirn off the thermal thing you need root then use the short cut app ... Before root it wouodnt launch the shortcut but after root now i can turn it off.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benanna88:
Hi all,

I know there are a few posts on bootloaders on the Galaxy Note 4 already, but none have answered my question.

I have just gotten this phone from Telstra in Australia, which I want to root and install a custom recovery on, but I am not sure if the bootloader is locked, or if this matters. It seems that most people can root with a locked bootloader, but I have read in other places that you can't, or that it may brick the phone. I've also read that Telstra doesn't lock the bootloader if it isn't locked from the manufacturer, but don't want to take the risk without knowing, if it can brick my phone.

ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)

PRODUCT NAME: SM-N910G

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

SYSTEM STATUS: Official

REACTIVATION LOCK(KK): OFF

KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x0

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB)

RP SWREV: S1, T1, R1, A1, P1

SECURE DOWNLOAD : ENABLE

UDC START

The above is what I get in download mode, so does this mean the bootloader is locked? Or can you not tell from this information?

If it is locked, then can I still root the phone, and install a custom recovery? Or, despite what I have read elsewhere, is it harmless to try?

Thanks in advance

Ben
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuizJS:
I have the N910G from Telstra too. I believe it is not network locked.

1. Does no network lock necessarily mean the bootloader is unlocked?

2. Is there some app (or other method) that can definitively determine the status of the bootloader please?

Regards
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benanna88:
I think you're right that it isn't network locked, but I don't think that relates to the bootloader.

I have worked out that QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB) does not necessarily mean that the phone is bootloader locked. No google search was able to tell me that, but I found this video where the guy shows his phone in download mode, with the same 'secureboot' status, and then goes on to successfully root it. There is also reason to believe that it isn't bootloader locked, because according to this thread, Telstra does not lock bootloaders where they are unlocked from the manufacturer. But having said that, I'm hesitant to try rooting my phone without knowing for sure.

So my questions are:

1. (same as yours) Is there a way to determine if the bootloader on these phones is unlocked? And

2. Is it safe to try rooting if the bootloader is locked?

Hopefully someone can help, but otherwise it may come down to someone just trying it and reporting whether or not it is successful.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benanna88:
Thanks for letting us know. It's looking more and more likely that the bootloader won't be locked, so I think I'm just going to have to give it a go.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benanna88:
Well, my phone's rooted. After seeing someone who tried rooting a Verizon Note 4 here, without causing any problems, I decided to try it myself, and it was successful first time. I have TRWP installed, and things like fingerprint scanning, private mode and S Health are all working, until I install Xposed, which I am still trying to sort out.

So just letting anyone who's interested know, the Telstra Note 4 is not bootloader locked. Still no idea on any other ways of checking the bootloader status though.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuizJS:
That's excellent news Benanna88. Just to confirm: You used cf-auto Root method, correct?

Also, what are you calling 'private mode' please?

And, did you ever get a response from Samsung about the bootloader?

Regards
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benanna88:
Yes I used CF Auto Root, specifically following the video I mentioned above.

Private mode is something that lets you hide things like photos and s notes. It stops working when you install xposed, and so far there doesn't seem to be an actual solution, but I think it still works for some people.

And no, still no response from Samsung, despite three different methods of contact.
[Sprint LG G3] randyrampage609:
Oh magical wizards of the forum how can you get rid of this without using a third party lockscreen app of get rid of it completely
[Sprint LG G3] Texas501:
Allow widgets in the settings on your lock screen.

Then on lockscreen, swipe clock to the right. A plus sign should be there. Press on plus sign and add a widget.

Then go back to lockscreen. When clock shows up, long press clock, an x on top will display, drag clock to x and the clock will go away. Your new widget will replace the clock.

for example, my lockscreen:
[Sprint LG G3] Spaniard85:
Add a different widget there instead. I suggest the one you get with the clock app Timely.
[Sprint LG G3] randyrampage609:
Sorry should've added this I want to get rid of it without using a widget
[Sprint LG G3] Texas501:
I think you need to replace it with something. With Zooper Widget Pro, you can add a widget, but then leave it blank (don't create a widget at all) but the screen will think there is a widget there even though it is blank.
[Sprint LG G3] randyrampage609:
I'll try that and see if that works until someone has a more permanent solution other than using an app
[Sprint LG G3] randyrampage609:
I tried that was the same out come then went into clockq app and just set the opacity to 0 so it completely see through
[Sprint LG G3] randyrampage609:
No that that's out of the way how to get rid of the press and hold for emergency call button on the bottom lol

[General Questions and Answers] gfifer1:
I have searched the forum and Google quite vigorously and have been unable to find a 100% clear-cut answer to my question. In fact, there are even conflicting answers on this very forum depending on the thread.

Anyway.... I have purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 and I plan on rooting it once I get it. Unfortunately the only root available for the device will trop KNOX Warranty Void (which I don't care about since I purchased an extended warranty / ADH through a 3rd party anyway). My question is: Will I still be able to receive OTA updates (including the Android L update in the future) without any issues? One thread on here seemed to imply that once KNOX had been tripped it is impossible to take any future official Samsung OTA updates or even flash future updates with ODIN. Essentially, I would be stuck at the factory installed version of Android forever. Another thread stated exactly the opposite and that OTA updates will still work as usual. Can anyone tell me which one is true?

It seems a bit farfetched that OTA updates would fail just because KNOX is at 0x1, but I just wanted to clarify before I basically screw up my brand new $400 tablet.

Thank you!
[General Questions and Answers] Snow_Ghost:
Please Help!

I am also curious about this. I have a 2 week old Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 8.0 Android version 4.4.2 that is now KNOX warranty void 0x1 There is still 14 months left on my warranty for this device. I would also like to know if this KNOX trip voided my warranty, and will I get any OTA updates in the future? And if I dont get the updates, will I be able to flash the updated firmware myself using Odin3? I would really be bummed out if my 2 week old device is going to be stuck on 4.4.2 for the rest of its life, while the rest of the world moves up the ladder with older technology and devices. Any info regarding this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] chaostic_2k1:
Knox is only important in warranty replacements. It does not prevent flashing via Odin or OTA. some root methods disable regular OTA updates as OTA updates tend to break root. You can still update, but keep in mind you WILL lose root at that point.
[General Questions and Answers] Snow_Ghost:
I just finished live chat support with Samsung Canada. I was told that KNOX is the security of the divice and it does not void warranty when the KNOX Warranty Void 0x1 (4) is tripped. The guy I spoke to, checked on his end and seen that my tablet is still under warranty for another 12 months, knowing the KNOX counter has been tripped. I was also given a 1-800 number and told to call KNOX and they can further assist me with this issue. Unfortunately they don't have 24 hour support, so I will have to wait till they reopen to call them. I will post back here tomorrow after I make the call. I attached a screenshot

of the chat if anyone is interested.

[General Questions and Answers] Snow_Ghost:
KNOX Warranty Void 0x1 (4)

Just a follow up from my last post. I called the 1-800 number that samsung gave me to call, the " KNOX Support" which does not exist. It was only Samsung tech support. Anyways after speaking to 2 different people, I was told that the KNOX security app is voided and not to worry because the lollypop update coming sometime this month will fix it. And I was assured that my tablet is still under warranty till November 30 2015. So I guess thats all the info I can get out of them. Hopefully they are right. Hopefully this info helps others.

My question is, how to change this to where that folder is saved to your EXTERNAL SD card. Because by default it saves it to your devices storage.

I didn't see anything in settings. Does this require a change in code in the build prop?

Well if you can`t remove it manualy in /settings/apps/ then a factory reset is the only way. And don`t install apps that are not from reliable scources cause you don`t always know what they do and always check the permissions you give to an app before you install it.

Which APN for tethering

I'm tethering right now on Validus via my router. Which of the T-Mobile APNs is preferred. I first tried the IPv6 LTE which didn't go so well. Switched to the IPv4 APN which is better but doesn't seem as smooth/fast as when I was using WiFi Tether Router on stock. What about the APN that uses epc.something. Would that be the preferred APN for tethering.

Validus really rocks, btw. Tested a lot of ROMs lately and this one suits me.
