i found in this thread an attached zip file to remove all Knox files
and my first question:
is it safe to use it on my SAMSUNG GALAXY GRAND 2 DUOS :SM-G7102 and how to use this zip file i mean by what tool to use it?
second question is how to reset counters of my device,i mean a tool like "Triangle away" so i could upgrade via OTA?as i used towelroot V1 to root my device and then OTA said your deicve modified and didn't upgrade he also he disable my google account and my samsung account,i mean it always faild to login to my google and samsung accounts after root and try upgrade officially
please advice me what to do:fingers-crossed:
triangle away is kinda risky to use as it might cause Hard Brick ! and ya flash the stock firmware again and use CFROOT to root as it is Safe compared to many but u shud go into recovery once before flashing

Hello!
I have a Galaxy S3 9300 Vodafone Romania . I have rooted my device with Odin, then I have flashed via CWM SuperNexus 5.
Now I would like to unroot my device and go back to the stock Samsung ROM.
I have tried to remove the counter ( 1 ) with TriangleAway but it won't reset it to 0. It remains 1. Is this beacuse of SuperNexus 5? Do I have to be on the stock Samsung rom?
Can I directly flash the stock rom via CWM?
Please help me!
I want to unroot it and don't know how to get rid of that counter!

OTA update usually fails to install .
Kies may update if it sees correct codes but as you are modify phone it may not .
You would be beter reading the faqs and guides first .

no, you'll have to decrease the binary counter with Triangle Away (requires root), then you can flash a stock ROM with Odin.
please, before you do anything stupid, read a TUTORIAL, because everything i'm saing is extremely superficial!
Why would you root then throw away all the benefits of being rooted by installing official updates?

You don't have to use big letters on us! We can read! Now, since you shouted at us, I'll be shouting back. No, you can't! You should stop using Kies anyway! It's cr*p!

When you flash anything with Odin it increases your bin counter you can see it if you go into download mode.It tells Samsung how may times you have flashed your device although you can reset it with triangle away.You cannot by pass it only reset it, to avoid increasing it just flash custom roms with a custom recovery this does not increase the counter.

The only way to root it is by ODIN (indirectly)
Just grab a ClockworkMod recovery ported for your device as ODIN flashable image (.img)
Go to odin. In your phone keep the home, vol + and power buttons pressed till it goes on download mode. In ODIN, choose the preloader and recovery and disable the reboot after flash. Press start. After it finishes, you can remove the battery and boot into CWM. From there flash SuperSu.zip update file (google for it). Reboot and congrats. Note that you may brick your device with ODIN. Please refer to video tuts for a step-by-step solution. Anyway, hope i helped.

Beware! Rooting your device using the aforementioned method WILL work, but will void your warranty by tripping KNOX WARRANTY VOID. It cannot be reset once tripped.

You will need to flash a custom recovery after. I recommend twrp. Then you can start flashing custom roms.

I'm 99% sure you won't get bootloop flashing the auto root. But download stock ROM just in case if this happens just flash the stock ROM. But like I said it's slim chance that this will happen.
The first time you flash cf auto root it may bootloop like 2 times but it is completely normal

No, you can reset the flash counter but knox will always be 0x1 (tripped) to be honest not many people or too bothered about knox. I've had my phone in for repair a few times with tripped knox. Samsung never even checked
