1. All data is lost. Make a backup.

4. This method requires an unlocked boot-loader, which voids your warranty.

I'm not sure about the rest of the questions.(I believe you should be able to get updates/upgrade to the latest version of android)

thank you man, I raised my moto G :fingers-crossed:
[Moto G General] emmmile:
I tried to downgrade from 5.0.2 but I gave also the two additional commands, therefore I bricked the device.

Tried to flash the 4.4.4 firmware and clearly it doesn't work.

Tried to flash again the 5.0.2 (BR version), but no luck. The phone remains in the unlocked bootloader screen.

I can throw away the phone? :crying:

Got my SM-N910C back from repair center today. KNOX + Custom Firmware counter were 1 !! Now it's back and both counter are 0 !! It's the same phone, IMEI is the same, it's my phone. I don't know how, but the service partners seem to have a tool to reset these counters. By the way, the phone is repaired.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] shook187:
And?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mr_GeGGi:
Maybe they changed motherboard?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] iridaki:
You need to tell us why the phone was in the repair centre, because it is entirely possible that they changed the motherboard, which is why now the KNOX fuse is intact.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ariefabuzaky:
What is your phone problem ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jdomadia:
After replacing mother board, official service centre can write your old mother board imei in new officially, this is just for your knowledge.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] darekz:
Knox fuse is probably software fuse. Some carriers dont care if you you bring phone for warranty replacement with Knox tripped. There are also some third party roms in official carrier phone and they have knox 0. For example phones sold in Rent A Center are using T-Mobile phone and those phones they have Rent A Center firmware and knox on. People successfully flashed original Tmobile firmware on them without changing knox counter which makes me believe that Knox is software solution.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] iridaki:
Flashing official Samsung firmware does not trip Knox, even if the firmware was not intended for your region/carrier.

So your argument is invalid. It has not been definitely determined exactly what the Knox fuse is, but all evidence at the moment suggest it's a hardware fuse.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] pappschlumpf:
Please delete Mr_GeGGi is right, they have changed the board. ASV class is 7 now instead of 5. Sorry guys.

Mods. Kill the thread please!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jhill110:
All evidence? There's a thread in the tmo forum with a service employee saying it can be reset.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] panki_86:
Writing same IMEI on other board is a crime :rolleyes:

If they change board with new, a new one must be with new IMEI.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] PieOfJustice:
Pretty much.

Straight from the guidelines of the GSMA (Official Document TS.06)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] pappschlumpf:
The IMEI is the same I've on my box and that is printed on the bill.

The ASV class changed from 5 to 7. That's the reason why I think they have replaced the board. They have just written that they have fixed the problems why I have send it back to the dealer. They have send it to official Samsung repair center. Custom and KNOX counter were 0 in download mode view, before I've rooted the phone again :). It was returned with KNOX and custom counter being 1! If they have not replaced the board why I have a better cpu now? The reason why I've returned it was that I couldn't make calls and couldn't receive calls in 4g3g2g and 3g2g auto mode. Only 2g worked sometimes. Data connection was wonky, too. Now everything is fine.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] iridaki:
I know a Samsung employee who claims it cannot be reset. :p

My point is, when I say "evidence" I mean developers (such as Chainfire) who have been trying to reset the counter ever since it appeared on the S4 and they failed.

you never know if it's possible, it was possible on the Note 3 Exynos, doubt for the snapdragon tho... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Hurrian:
I've never had Samsung refuse warranty service over a blown Knox counter, it seems that all they care about is the "warranty void" sticker on one of the screws on the back of the phone.

The Knox counter is there for data security for corporations - Samsung's been trumping that up for a while now, courting Blackberry refugees.

Though IMO, they should change the wording in Download Mode to be less scary than "Warranty Void" - I've seen some phones straight from flagship Samsung Stores having blown Knox counters. Likely from corrupted first flashes and fixed in QA.

Addendum:

Samsung service centers almost _never_ replace components on motherboards anymore (they do have access to all parts though). 0603 and SMD components are way, way, way too small to do reliably, and the employees just aren't paid enough for the time it takes.

They just order a new board and reflash the IMEI (a big no-no - a few years back they shipped new stickers with the boards though...)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jdomadia:
My personal experience with note 2, on those days note 2 was facing " Sudden death syndrome "

My note 2 mb came in service centre in front of me while I was seating in authorised service centre, they replaced mb & told me now they are writing my original imei of old mb,since new mb comes blank.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Temetka:
What thread?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] holycow1:
I went to the only authorized samsung repair depot in the US. I was told by the tech that they do flash the old IMEI to the new mother board when they replace it. He said because they are authorized by Samsung that they can do this, otherwise, yes, it is illegal.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] PieOfJustice:
I guess they are just that. Guidelines.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Jonathan-H:
Your argument is invalid? Seriously people use this meme quote irl? :D Didn't seem like an argument. That said, no one knows and there isn't really any evidence at all. As for changing an imei, I would definitely argue it's illegal (yes that's an argument which is valid in law).
[Galaxy Note 4 General] iridaki:
I am sure those 4 words were put together in that order long before the meme appeared. [emoji14]

And an argument is a reason given in support of an idea, action or theory, so it was an very much an argument.

I agree, there is no definite evidence, what we only know for sure is that nobody has managed to reset Knox counter on the Note 4 so far.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] andrew.mackew:
Interesting.. if they can rewrite the motherboard with an old imei so it's reasonable to say that, somehow, they can rewrite knox counter.. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mariosraptor:
I can change an imei if I want using hardware tools for flashing. Although not advised. Wish though I could help with Knox reset.

I personally though believe is a software thing that writes to an encrypted database in a hardware chip. If we find the ic maybe we can find the encryption key
[Galaxy Note 4 General] darekz:
I also believe it is software thing. Some carriers allow used phones traded for new ones and they dont care if knox is 0 or 1. If knox couldnt be reset to 0 some of those phones would have no resale value.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] zurkx:
an efuse costs minute fractions of a penny to put into a chip. a flash memory bit costs a lot more and is much less reliable. my money is on a simple efuse. it cant be hacked. it cant be tampered with.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sand1303:
I'm sure it will be possible. One day we will be able to reset it
[Galaxy Note 4 General] xrayA4T:
Sigh.... let's understand the background to Knox. Samsung added functionality to allow users and businesses to identify of the phone had been hacked. Of someone modified the firmware to install a rootkit or rooted the phone to access your data then Knox would be tripped do you would know it had happened.

Samsung implemented this using an efuse that would get tripped when the phone detected that the firmware had changed from the signature (rooting etc) or if an unsigned firmware was installed.

This means it had to be a physical efuse not a software flag. If it was a software flag the hacker could just install a special firmware, steal your data, reset the flash and reinstall an official firmware and you would never know they had been on your phone.

But as soon as they start to fiddle the efuse gets blown and it becomes impossible to cover their tracks.

Knox was never intended as a means of tracking if you had rooted your phone or installed a custom ROM so they could void the warrantee. That it's illegal in Europe so there would be no need to use the efuse there.

Once the efuse is blown the only way to reset it is via a hardware replacement as happened to the op. There will be no software fix ever.

That's exactly what I thought back when I had the Note 3 unless this came. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52329946&postcount=76

We never know what is what unless the developer himself confirms.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Simonetti2011:
A fuse is not something that is "put into a chip". It is part of the chip. The CPU or MCU is desgined with the fuses in mind.

Take, for instance, the ATMega microcontrollers that power Arduinos (they are basically, very underpowered CPUs, called MCUs): there are 3 fuses (Low, High, Extended), and they can only be accessed using a special kind of programmer, called ICSP.

Using the regular kind of programmer you can't even read the fuses, but you can upload programs ("sketches") to the MCU. However, if you want to read/write the fuses or flash a new bootloader, you need a ICSP adapter, such as the USBASP, AVRISP, AVRDragon or STK500.

What I mean is: fuses are part of the microcontroller's project and design.

In the case of the ATMegas, you can rewrite the fuses as you want. In some scenarios, however, you may need a high-voltage (12V, as opposed to 5V) programmer writer in order to be reset a fuse.

In some MCUs, like a few PICs, some fuses are writeable just once, and they cannot be ever reset. These are meant to protect the firmware in that MCU, so that the MCU is not updateable. If something is wrong with the firmware, you have to trash the MCU.

I have a friend who works in a Samsung repair centre and I was having a conversation about resetting knox. Apparently, it is possible but requires a jig...

Me;

Glad i removed all traces of knox on my note 2 lol i dont think it even shows in download mode any more. Sadly, because newer phones come with it built in (unlike the note 2) I doubt it's possible to fully remove any more, especially with the evil usage of efuses. Efuses were intended to "self repair" chips not be security features lol

Him;

yeah knox is a ***** i did find a way to reset the efuse but it involves rewriting the imei and re flashing using the equipment we have at work

wipe the board rewrite imei then reinstall stock firmware using odin ;)

Me;

How do you wipe the board?

Find it funny you use odin at work lol

Him;

we have a jig that forces the board into download mode and erases everything, its the same process we use for board changes as most of the boards we get are refurbs *shhhh* ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] xdm9mm:
If you can ask what Jig it is....

but there is a jig on gsm hosting that rewrites imei... they are offering on Note 4 too... it could be the same jig your friend uses

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gordonthegopher:
Hello,

Nice to see an active community for the Nook HD+. I'm seeing them here in the UK for £70-80 refurbished and wondered if it's still worth buying one? I'm most specifically looking for a tablet that can comfortably display sheet music in portrait orientation (I will never get an iPad, it's Android all the way for me). The Nook HD+ still seems to be one of the only larger screened Android tabs with a comfortable display ratio for portrait, aside from the Nexus 9, but that is way expensive for my budget.

Anyone comment on the above? I'm particularly interested if you have used a Nook HD+ to display sheet music successfully. Also, anyone think there is a better large screen tab for under £100 at the moment? Obviously the cons of the Nook HD+ are the propriety charger, lack of cameras (thought that really isn't an issue for me) and lack of GPS and the other things taken for granted on other tabs. But I can't seem to find anything under £100 that comes close to the Nook's display. 9" full HD is pretty impressive for that price. Everything else I've seen has really poor resolution, or a smaller screen (or both).
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdwsmith:
The large circa 2000x1200 display of the nook is good so I think you have the best value for your use, as the other weakness ie procesor and graphics accellertion won't effect your music.

I use my look for web reading, comics and pdf manual reading and its excellant for that.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmacmil:
Just be aware that the Nook OS is 3 generations behind and likely won't support many recently written apps. To make it fully functional you'll have to install a custom ROM. If you do that it's probably the best value in an Android tablet.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gordonthegopher:
Yup, definitely wouldn't consider it without CM11, but I can't find anything else that comes close to matching the screen size and quality for £80. My finger is hovering over the payment button... [emoji2]
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digixmax:
+1.

The Nook HD+ running CM11 is my favorite amongst all my tablets which include the Google Nexus and Samsung Note. Prior to the HD+my favorite tablet was the Nook Tablet running CM10/11. It's too bad that BN got out of the tablet hardware business.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gordonthegopher:
Great, you've sold me.

Next question is, which is the most stable, CM10 final stable build, CM11 (and if so, the latest nightly or the M12 snapshot) or SlimKat? I use SlimKat on my Galaxy S4 and love it's layout and features. I've posted a question on the SlimKat thread here, as 9.0 is the latest stable but the build for the Nook seems to be 8.12...
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gordonthegopher:
Oops, just realised the above post might come across as a "which ROM is better" request which are (quite rightly) frowned upon in these parts. It's more which is the most stable. My sense from reading here is that it's CM11...
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
The most stable is CM10.1.3.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmacmil:
Here are some data points for you. My wife has the HD+ and runs 10.1.3. She mostly surfs the web and watches movies but will occasionally look at Yelp or Facebook and run a few other apps. I have an HD which was running 10.2.1 until yesterday. I had no issues on 10.2.1. Yesterday I installed CM11 snapshot M12. I have only used email, Chrome, FB and a weather app. So far, so good. The only hiccup installing CM11 was that I couldn't backup to or install from the external SD card. Had to do both from internal storage but other than that it went smoothly.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gordonthegopher:
Thanks guys. I'm think gonna start on CM11 M12, prefer to be on KitKat. I saw a YouTube video saying bluetooth causes lag on CM11, is this still the case? And is there the same problem on CM11?

Perfect for my main usage as a sheet music display (we make so many tweaks in rehearsals I was ripping through paper in no time! 9" 3:2 is just about big enough to read in portrait mode and this way we only have to print right before a gig.

Hi, I've been browsing around the forums trying to work out whether a 4GB MiniSD or MiniSDHC card will work with the Trinity or not, but I can't seem to get a definite answer..

For those of you, who have successfully been using 4GB (MiniSD or MiniSDHC) for a long while now, (> 1 month preferably), how did you get it working? i.e. how did you format it, are you using a different ROM, etc.

My device will be the Orange SPV M700 (I haven't got it yet), if I flash it with, say, a Dopod ROM, what are the advantages/disadvantages?

Thanks for the help!

Listen up guys...How many threads does it take to get this issue solved? I have been using a TopRam 4gb miniSD for 3 months. I'm a power user with TomTom, video apps and audio apps all running directly from the miniSD card. The card is 85% full of nav maps, music and videos. I have never had an issue with this setup running the Dopod Test Rom found in the Wiki of this site. It works for me, that is all I can say. Apparently there are some rom versions that have had issues in the past.

At this point, it's hit or miss. While a few users report no problems, many others have had problems with not only the 4gb, but smaller cards as well.

I, for one, have a 2gb card that works flawlessly, and a 4gb card that wont last a day without errors. My belief is that this has more to do with the brand/manufacturer than anything else:confused:

so far i have tried the following.

installing fancy switcher, and set it as the default.

tried with new launchers.

rooting the phone.

any idea how to possibly fix this? it has a recovery thingy, but its very bad, and im not sure if it will completely destroy the device, to install clockwork on it.

and if all else fails, i cna reset it, and start over, so dont be shy about suggestions. and even if reset fails, it was not that expensive, considering everything works. just worse specs.
