[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daemonios:
Hi all. I'm having problems using the GoPro app to control my camera from my phone. The app relies on the phone connecting to an ad-hoc WiFi network generated by the GoPro camera. The problem is that the phone keeps switching to my home WiFi. I presume this happens because the router signal is stronger than the camera's. However, in this case I want to connect to the camera regardless of signal quality.

I've searched XDA and the web at large and can't find a way to prioritise a given WiFi network over all others in Android 5. This makes it very hard or sometimes impossible to use the GoPro app at home.

Does anyone know a good way to solve this? Apparently KitKat had the option to prioritise a connection straight out of the box, but that option isn't available in Lollipop :/
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krs360:
You need to use an app that prioritises one ssid over another.

I've never used it, but this one has good reviews:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daemonios:
Thanks a lot, I'll try that.

Why would Google remove this option from the WiFi advanced settings, though? It makes it a pain to use devices that create ad-hoc networks... Does anyone know if there is a planned comeback in future releases?

As of this morning this method is working for S6 Edge Tmo variant! Just did it a couple hours ago, worked flawlessly. Even switched over to SuperSU following the adb commands in the first post. Now I'm rocking AdBlocker, Greenify, and Viper4Audio! And my Knox is successfully intact. :D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] grneyez:
That would be a issue for those that want to update via OTA, once rom develolpment starts to kick off, the customs roms will have updates included..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Tiffany84:
If you plan on flashing a custom rom then there's no point of using this root method. Since flashing a custom rom requires a custom recovery and you'll end up tripping the bootloader flashing the recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] grneyez:
Is the bootloader not unlocked on T-Mobile devices? How would you trip the bootloader? Or are you referring to Knox? Also, the benifit would be to those that don't flash a rom or install a custom recovery, need to return a device for service and Knox is not tripped for warranty service with this method.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Trev420:
hes right, installing a custom rom requires a custom recovery, which will trip knox.

If you want an untripped knox, and want to stay with that stock rom version for ever, then this method is for you!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] grneyez:
That's what I've been trying to say.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Trev420:
Id imagine flashing a stock image via ODIN would work for an upgrade, but im not positive.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] grneyez:
I think that flashing thru Odin would trip the Knox counter, not 100% sure..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] PanchoPlanet:
Most beneficial for getting rid of bloatware, just having root access is a plus so apps like RomToolBox can be used.

Your better off with your stock debloated rom with a stock recovery and not taking chances with moded roms that can disable features like WiFi calling or Google wallet and create problems especially when you are trying to use the phone.

If reliability and usability is a priority, consider stock /rooted rom.

Pp.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Trev420:
Never had a rom that cut out google wallet, tripping knox will have no effect on it, AFAIK. And ive also seen wifi calling in other roms, tripping knox will have no effect on that either.

Only downside to tripping knox is samsung pay, i think.

---------- Post added at 02:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:09 PM ----------

stock installs should not trip knox. its just like using smartswitch to go back to stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] spirodave:
Exactly. . I have been with T-Mobile for a very long time and they can care less if you warranty flag is tripped. Especially if you have handset protection which covers everything. Not once have I ever had to deal with the OEM when it comes to phone replacement. Considered tripping Knox may void your Samsung warranty , but I have not have Tmobile even check the Knox flag and sometimes wonder if their sales reps in store even know how to.

---------- Post added at 03:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:29 PM ----------

Though it is nice to root without tripping knox, Tmobile can careless about the Knox flag. That is a Samsung warranty indicator. I have turned in multiple phones over the years that have had the warranty flags tripped including the Note 4 I just traded into Tmobile. Besides I would not have use for root /without a custom recovery which is mentioned below will trip knox anyway
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] wase4711:
QFTT!! :good::good:

If you are on Tmobile, you should care less about tripping Knox...I've done the same thing with several phones, and, has been said multiple times, they just don't care...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Slickerthanslick:
I think as long as the phone boots up they will accept it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] DanRyb:
Not sure why I was quoted as I said nothing about T-Mobile and warranties. I didn't want to trip Knox because I want to use (or at the very least try once it's released) Samsung Pay. While it isn't out yet, the rumor is of course that a tripped Knox will make it so SP can't be used. Also not using a custom recovery. All I need root for is AdBlocker, Viper audio, and Greenify. What works for some may not work for all. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] shoresteve626:
Private mode is working for me along with S-Health as someone else stated. No problems yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Aou:
Unless KNOX has changed drastically since my experimentation with the Galaxy S4 (about where it first started showing up), KNOX is triggered by two things:

- The device boots a recovery image that is not stock

- The SysScope application (and other, theoretical "backup" or fail-safe copies of this application) determines that the system image or kernel image has been modified in any way - including but not limited to rooting the device

- I believe these days, flashing any ROM or Update.zip that has been tampered with in any way

If root can be achieved without doing any of the above, OR if the SysScope application (and its cronies) can otherwise be fooled, then you're golden. But if you really want to do anything more advanced with your device (e.g. install busybox, or manually modify build.prop, etc.), then you're at a high risk of tripping KNOX anyway.

So, simply flashing a stock rom via Kies/Odin should never trip KNOX - unless you're trying to revert to an older software revision.

But don't take my word to the bank. Always flash/root/modify things at your own risk.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] nyknight77:
I installed root, installed busybox and manually modified my build.prop to change device from tmo to att because i hated the s finder and quick connect in the notification panel. Knox was not tripped.

Sent from my SM-G925T
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Aou:
Very nice! It sounds like the PingPongRoot might be somehow disabling or otherwise bypassing SysScope.

Can you please check something for me: Settings -> About device -> Status -> Device status. Does it say Custom, or official?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] nyknight77:
Says custom. OTA update does not work also.

Sent from my SM-G925T
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] unremarked:
Same for me. However, when booting into Bootloader, it still shows KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0×0 aka no KNOX trip as advertised.

Further, after restoring to stock ODIN files, it once again shows as Official in the About Device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Aou:
Then, perhaps, it's possible that SysScope is no longer tripping Knox counters? Or that PingPongRoot is somehow neutering SysScope's ability to trip the Knox counter?

Either way is good news to those who want to "do more" with their phones (or really, do what we should have been able to do all along?) without the looming threat of "zomg, mah warranty voidz!!"...

Thanks for the info, guys. I've already voided my Knox warranty, but I'm not worried about it. I did the same to my S5, and I was able to JUMP to the S6e without any trouble at a T-Mobile corporate store. We might eventually PingPongRoot my wife's phone (also S6e) to get some more functionality out of it (e.g. ad blocking or other minor tweaks or freezing bloat).

Edit: for those curious about the JUMP, the store employees said, "hey as long as the screen isn't cracked or badly scratched, it isn't water damaged, and it boots.... we'll take it for the upgrade." YMMV
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] XxKINGxX2580:
I would've tripped Knox on the first day, but the only thing keeping me back was that Samsung apps like S Health, Samsung Pay, exc. Would've been disabled. T-Mobile just doesn't care if you give them a Knox-tripped phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Aou:
Indeed, seems that way. I have heard of stories where some T-Mobile store employees have refused to take back the handsets for JUMP for this reason. I find that retarded, and silly. I don't think these employees realize what the Knox warranty is all about:

If you've modified your phone - and especially have added a custom recovery - you've essentially compromised Knox's ability to secure the data on your phone. Therefore, Samsung can't make any guarantees (read: warranties) that Knox will work for you anymore.

As for the S Health and Samsung Pay, I'm not worried. My S Health appears to be working 100% (is there something I should be looking for that's not working?), and Google Wallet is sufficient for most things. Even still, I hear the Samsung Pay thing (that it won't work on a Knox-tripped phone) is just a rumor?

Thanks for the healthy discussion.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] wschamps42:
If you were to UN-Root the phone would you be able to get OTAs again then?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Aou:
Only if you were to get rid of the "Custom" flag. Once the system.img has been modified, even "un-rooting" can't change that fact (and SysScope would pick up on that). Best bet would be to use Kies to return to stock. Odin-to-Stock would likely work just the same.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] quickquest88:
has anyone had this problem? I've posted twice in the pingpong thread, but no one is answering.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Aou:
See Chainfire's recent post here regarding KNOX:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=60934538&postcount=817

Explains why the Tmo S6 Edge can be rooted (modifying System) without tripping Knox. It appears that on this device, Knox is simply not looking to see if the System partition has been modified.

That being said, it wouldn't take much for Samsung to change that in a future update to this phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Tiffany84:
Well, those of us who were trying to avoid tripping KNOX just in case it would break Samsung Pay, it looks like it's going to be awhile before it launches. They initially said this summer, so even though I rarely use services like that, it sounded cool and I didn't want to risk not being able to try it if I wanted to. Now I just read an article on Phandroid that says it's more than likely not going to launch until September, which is when the Note 5 will be released. So to that I say, thank you Samsung. You just made my decision very easy. Tripping KNOX in 3,2,1.......????

Here is the article in case anyone wants to read it: http://phandroid.com/2015/06/03/samsung-pay-delayed-for-galaxy-note-5/

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] M9x3mos:
How can I upgrade to the new version and keep root if I rooted using this method?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] krntehknik303:
I wouldnt recommend just upgrading to 5.1 just yet. You can't downgrade and you won't be able to keep root at the moment.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] dominante58:
I Odin-ed to the newest 5.1.1 from Tmobile and came from having custom recovery and it looks like now the KNOX counter is reset to 0x0000.

I thought once knox was tripped from having TWRP that it wasnt possible to go reset knox??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Aou:
Exactly this. While root exists for Android 5.1.1, it doesn't currently exist for Samsung's version of Android 5.1.1. Chainfire has previously stated that he would not begin working on a root method for this until one of his devices has the new 5.1.1.

And, as stated above, the bootloader in 5.1.1 is now "version 2" which makes it impossible to revert to older versions of the kernel or recovery (or older versions of the bootloader). Typically Samsung uses this method of incrementing the version to impose things like KNOX on older devices that didn't ship with it, or to permanently patch a root exploit. In this case, it's unclear why Samsung would increment the counter on a T-Mobile device when T-Mobile doesn't usually care wtf we do with our device.

---------- Post added at 02:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 PM ----------

Interesting observation. It is indeed reset to 0x0000, but noteworthy it still says "1".
