No man it's not useful for you since you got the device for urself

In our case we had the devices given to us by the government and knox restricted our access and had monitoring enabled
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] xbt-:
Just curious, what country, and how did the government give you the device? For work?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
India and the government gave it to us for "study" purposes
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] xbt-:
I googled it, found that the India government gave 1 crore (133,000?) UG (undergraduate?) students free smartphones and tablets for school.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Yeah that's the one xD the whole reason this thread was active haha
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] equinoks:
Thanx for this method.. but If we factory reset the tablet, will the Knox lock come again ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
If u remove it properly then it shouldn't come back

i cant patch cuz tab cant open due to knox custom os thing
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
You can patch the boot image on any device there's no need for it to be patched on the tab itself

Just install Magisk manager on ur personal device copy the boot file to ur mobile and patch it then move it patched image to ur pc
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Piyushkumar1729:
i cant unlock bootloader cuz "work profile custom rom error". and i used 4-5 versions of roms. ofc i ran odin with administrator priviliges with internet off. What am i doing wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Go to recovery and erase the data on the tab then start it up and connect it to wifi *DO NOT PROCEED* then connect the tab to pc and use the frp bypass tool (step 3) then download quick shortcut manager app and search for setup

Run the app which says android setup this will start up ur tab however the knox pop up will come constantly and ask you to restart *DO NOT RESTART* just swipe down and click on settings, u need to turn on OEM unlocking as fast as possible because the pop up will keep on coming over and over, once u r able to unlock the bootloader from within the software you will be good to go ahead with flashing the patched firmware
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Piyushkumar1729:
The bypass fails.

I have windows security turned off all virus protections off no anti virus softwares.

Disabled driver signatures. Samsung usb drivers installed.still the bypass event fails.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Have u disabled driver signature from within windows or just clicked the button on the program, cause the button does not do anything on windows 8+
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Piyushkumar1729:
yeh i did from advanced startup.Maybe its version.What version exactly did u flashed?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
I am currently running the latest Android 12 firmware but that has nothing to do with the bypass process it does not work sometime out of the 9 tabs I have fixed it has happened to me twice

I don't know what causes it but it did work for me when I tried again later on
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Oh another thing did you extract the contents of the zip file or did u run the exe from within the zip?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Piyushkumar1729:
Oh..
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Piyushkumar1729:
U mean frp tool?Yes ofc i extracted then used it. See the image plz.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Piyushkumar1729:
It worked this time Sorry to disturb u senpai.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:

Hello, @jingping, @bhanu1232, @venxtreme, @Insomniac05 & @equinoks. Boys have you tried this method for phone too? (Galaxy A03). I also wanted to remove those ****y restrictions and know. Please Guide Me!

I tried flashing the firmware but it didn't help me, I got knox back!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
I only have access to the tablet but the process should be similar

Also flashing the rooted firmware does not automatically remove knox u need to use other programs like adb app control or something else to uninstall knox from ur device, rooting is just done to grant you the permission required for uninstalling system apps like knox
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Reprogram:
like my device is active rn if i uninstall all those 3-4 apps using adb, does i cause any problem or something? (I also wanted to know that is you able to use gpay or NF like serviecs? cuz in the post i says you can't)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] bhanu1232:
Yes it works fine and faced no issue till now.

Note: extract the AP from rom and pull the boot.img out, then patch the boot.img using magisk app and then archive only the boot.img with that AP file name and same extension.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
If u want to use gpay I won't suggest u use the rooting method I'll rather suggest u to go for the non root method, while that method does not remove knox completely it is however used to disable knox allowing u to remove the security measures
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Reprogram:
really have you fixed this knox issue in phone? (its unbelievable for me)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Ravi01:
How do I Toggle OEM unlocking and developer option ON in my tab. Permission not allowed is showing.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
What does it say when u click on build number 7 times?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Ravi01:
Permission is blocked by knox. It is govt tab
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
1. Flash tablet with official firmware that would reset the device

2. Use the EasyFRP to bypass and download Quick Shortcut Maker

3. Run the settings app from Quick Shortcut

4. Go ahead and enable dev op
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] brunoaduarte:
Hi, cannot unlock booloader on T220 because it's a managed device, any workarounds for this?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Did u toggle OEM unlocking from the dev options?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
The only way to get a MDM lock removed is to contact the company that used to own the device and request they unlock it remotely.

OEM Unlocking generally isn't available on MDM locked devices.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
That sucks, isn't there some way to bypass it for a little bit like it is possible with knox?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
No.

MDM is essentially baked into the firmware and is used for "fleet devices" bought for corporate use. There's only one way to remove it, and it's for the device manager to remotely disable the lock. Unlocking the bootloader is not possible with MDM active, and there's no way to reflash the device with a locked bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Hah good thing we only had to deal with knox on t225 then
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
I think you misunderstood me.

MDM is not device specific, nor is it an internal device security thing like Knox.

When companies buy devices for corporate use, they often specify a MDM solution they want to use to maintain control over their mobile assets. MDM can track location, disable features, report usage (including texts and phone calls), and remotely wipe the device. Any device that used to be in a corporate fleet potentially has or at one time had MDM installed.

There are tons of posts all over this forum from people who were unfortunate enough to buy ex-corporate devices - Samsung, HTC, LG, Google, Motorola, you name it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Nah nah I got ya just saying that we got lucky that the gov chose to go with knox for our devices rather than mdm
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
Looks like I was partially mistaken. I seem to remember Knox having something to do with firmware security - preventing unauthorized code from running. Now, it's a security and management framework implemented by Samsung to provide a platform for MDM use.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Oh well yeah knox was doing pretty much the same things for our gov tabs like u stated what mdm does, locking features constant monitoring the whole lot
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] brunoaduarte:
I've found some paid options on Google: UnlockTool, Octoplus, Chinese Miracle. Can they work for me, or are these all scams/virus ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
What is the platform with which mdm is implemented on ur device?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] brunoaduarte:
No idea, where can I get that info?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
You can check what apps are device admin on ur device I guess
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] brunoaduarte:
Cannot boot it
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Flash the official firmware again
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] brunoaduarte:
Ok, reflashed. Where can I get that info?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Search device admin in settings
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Quite strange that there is no device admin is developer options still unavailable?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Abish:
Didn't all US devices have oem unlocking disabled?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
Most likely scams.

This doesn't remove MDM, and in fact performing a clean flash is impossible because MDM prevents unlocking the bootloader.

No. It's generally carrier specific - for example, Verizon devices are typically not unlockable
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] mary16860:
Can you please provide a guide for those who have lost their warranty due to Knox, since we cannot access the home screen or settings in any way.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Ah I just asked to flash the firmware since he wasn't able to boot up and sure enough that atleast got his device back to boot up
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Guide for what? What does losing warranty have to do anything with accessing home screen or settings?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
Yeah, depending on the device you can generally flash factory firmware. I'm mainly familiar with Nexus/Pixel devices - it's not possible to perform a clean flash without unlocking the bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Ah that's not exactly the case with Samsung Odin has the option to erase nand that completely wipes the device even with the BL locked they allow to flash official f/w
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
No kidding? That almost seems like a security vulnerability, as far as MDM is concerned - unless the MDM app is baked into the "official" firmware, but as far as I know fleet devices generally use the same country code as consumer devices. It's all rather confusing. I would assume fleet devices would have certain enterprise/corporate apps preloaded, and perhaps have some consumer features disabled, so the firmware would indeed be different from a similar consumer device, meaning you probably couldn't flash consumer firmware on a MDM locked device...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Well that's why samsung uses knox it's a part of their official firmware so it's present in every firmware from every region, knox is capable of blocking sites, apps, features etc depending on however it has been configured by the admin, there is just one set of firmware but knox blocks and enables parts of it on the go and as long as you have the official firmware knox starts straight at boot unless bypassed by some means so you can't actually remove the mdm, plus if u root the device it won't let u in since knox starts at boot

So that's why rooting->bypassing->uninstalling knox is the only effective ways we found to remove the restrictions on our tabs
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
Interesting. Used to be, Knox was just a "warranty bit", a sort of e-fuse that would blow if unofficial firmware was installed on the device.

Good luck with this, it's completely over my head at this point so I'm out lol
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
Ah that part is still there lol😂 but knox definitely has evolved xD
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Abish:
No, Unlock tool for some specific devices have been successfully to change binaries like changing KG status, very similar to MDM system since when devices bought using EMI options fails to pay companies trigger that. I've seen Unlock tool work not scam.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
Fine, but be aware of the Forum Rules:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] brunoaduarte:
Yes it is unavailable. Nothing happens when I tap "Build number" at Settings / About tablet / Software information
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Insomniac05:
U can try to reflash it this time checking the nand erase option or u can try rooting your device and using the frp bypass

However since i don't know how ur device is restricted I cannot say if these will work or just brick it, so if u wish to proceed with any of these methods to try that's at ur own risk

[ASUS ZenFone 8] floydsen:
Hi there,

My current setup is that I've installed LineageOS with microG on the Asus Zenfone 8 according to https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/sake/install

My question: Is it safe to relock the bootloader with "fastboot oem asus-csc_lk" when lineageos is installed and will the device still boot afterwards?

I'm mostly concerned about Evil Maid attacks I'd like to prevent as much as possible and I'd like to lock down my device if possible. I've already read:

https://xdaforums.com/t/relock-zenfone8.4355511/

https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/n7yo7u

But to me it is not entirely clear if the "Evil Maid" attack would work without me noticing and could happen anytime someone accesses my phone physically, or if that would still require them to wipe my data first.

cheers,

floyd
[ASUS ZenFone 8] NisseGurra:
Never lock bootloader if not on stock: unaltered, unrooted state.

All other cases: "bricked"
[ASUS ZenFone 8] xoner8:
I had previously unlocked the bootloader to install LineageOS for testing, but then decided to reinstall stock ROM from Asus, including the recovery.

The LineageOS installation procedure included updating the "vendor_boot" image... do I need to do anything about this before attempting to re-lock the bootloader? I don't know how to check on this part...

Thanks for any help.

Hi, everyone!

I bought a Sonos Roam. Normally, you should be able to get the Sonos Roam out of standby mode by opening the app. I can also do this on a laptop, on a Samsung smartphone - but I can't do it on the Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro. Bluetooth AND GPS must be switched on in parallel for it to work. Although only WLAN should be required for this (as on Laptop & Samsung Smartphone). Are there any settings that I don't know that cut the WLAN and are canceled when Bluetooth / GPS is activated ???

I tried every setting i could find and cant get it to work...

Many Thanks

My phone in fastboot mode is defined as Unknown device error 43. At the same time it works in adb mode and in general everything else works. The systems are loaded. I changed three usb wires, three computers, removed all unused drivers and all fastboot, adb drivers. I installed new different drivers. I even put one windows 7 into test mode. Only adb and the usual usb drivers were installed.

I don’t know what the problem is, but I think it’s a matter of the device. I used to use xposed + root auto power off tool and my sound drivers (files) were damaged. Only installing a special

service firmware via fastboot helped and restoring the phone. I again used xposed ... Now I think that some internal drivers for connecting to fastboot were damaged and I do not know how to restore them or the problem is something else. I also do not have root / twrp right now, since at the moment I have installed a new system, while deleting the system / data partition. Bootloader is unlocked. Sorry, I'm using google translate.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Yonteh:
My pixel 4xl overheats and will go off in its own.

When I try to switch back on it won't work until I connect my charger. What could be the issue
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] flash713:
It's possible that you might have some sort of malware/virus on the device. Overheating is one symptom of a mobile device virus.. In order to rule it out I would install a Google factory image for your device model from here:

https://developers.google.com/android/images

Flashing stock is always my first "go to.."

Make sure your device gets formatted.. Meaning don't edit the script if you are manually flashing the factory image. Allow it to: fastboot -w so that it gets wiped. I'm one of those weird people who believes in thoroughly wiping my devices , sometimes more than once just to make sure it was done 💯. :😁😂 Formatting your data and installing a factory image is always the first move when things happen that aren't supposed to happen. Then if problems continue after you've flashed stock and wiped your device you will know it is something else that is wrong.

Did you drop it recently or anything like that? My Pixel 4XL has never been hot or cut out as you describe. Hopefully it is some sort of virus and installing factory image and formatting solves your problems.

Not sure if you have fastboot and adb installed on your PC but if not here is what I believe is probably the best tutorial on installing adb and fastboot that's there is! Just download them from Google and extract to PC, open terminal in extracted platform-tools folder and type a few small sentences and you are ready to use fastboot and adb.

Detailed adb & fastboot tools installation thread is here: https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-unlock-flash-root-for-the-pixel-2-xl-taimen.3702418/

It's in Pixel 2XL forums but it applies to all.

You can also use the web/browser installer to install factory image. Directions are on same page as factory images ..See first link here .. Hopefully this helps .. I hope you get it fixed. If you need help my name is the same here as it is on telegram.
