As far as i know, rooting your device or flashing custom ROM breaking the KNOX. And you can't restore the KNOX system. So farewell to your samsung pay and other samsung bloatware that require Knox.

hi everyone, i plan to root and install custom ROM for SGS II. I don;t want to use ROM uploaded by other people for some selfish insecure reason (feel safer to use my own stock ROM)
So, before that, how do i backup everything in the phone including the stock rom? because we need to changed back the phone to default state to claim the warranty.
You download the stock rom to match yours now and flash that if you ever need to claim warranty.
Plus use the USB recovery jig to reset custom rom counter to zero before any warranty .

There is no way to save your stock firmware without rooting it before.
The way to save it is to install the Kernel CF-ROOT matching your firmware version and to use CWM Recovery to do a nandroid backup ( rom + data + cache).
You will find safe to use stock firmwares in the officizl thread in the dev section.

everyone thanks for the answer. I just want to have confirmation before i proceeed with rooting.
i don't want to download because of the reason i stated above.
Hi I'm new to XDA,
I bought a SGS2 yesterday second hand and it was already rooted. The problem was that I don't know what the guy rooted it with to un-root it (if that makes sense or if I'm just talking rubbish who knows!!!). Also I have the yellow triangle but can't get rid of it, I can't download the TriangleAway app as it says my phone is not compatible or is the wrong version (I have the GT-i9100). I would prefer not to buy a usb jig.
So my question is how can I un-root with these circumstances and how can I get the triangle away?
Any help is appreciated!:good:
Thanks,
easies way to unroot is to flash a stock rom, it will remove the root.
triangle away will work on rooted roms only. I suspect the phone was not properly rooted.
What rom is installed on the phone.
If you have SuperSU in the phone (whoch you probably have) you can unroot it.
There is an option there that could make the device fully unroted. But i haven't tried the method so it's up to you, but seeing that Chainfire has made it, i would trust it.
Do at your own risk.
Cheers.
Flash a stock ROM is the best solution... With no risks...

I just purchased a Note 2 on Swappa. The phone was rooted when I got it but running a stock ROM. I'm coming from a Galaxy Nexus running CM10.1 and I got to say, I do miss a lot from that ROM but I want to give this stock ROM a shot for a while mainly because I want to see if all the Samsung S-Pen apps are something that I will use. From what I understand, these will not be available to me on a custom ROM.
My question is if I load CM10.1, what will my S-Pen functionality be? Are there alternative apps like the Samsung ones for S-Pens? Will the S-Pen even work on CM10.1?
Thanks all!
There are TW ROMs and aosp ROMs. The TW ROMs leave the s-pen functions intact, the aosp ROMs don't have most of the s-pen functions, though I've read there are apps to get some of them back.
Papyrus is 1.
Basically all the spen is is a stylus on aosp but like what has been said papyrus is great for note maybe better than snote,gmd spen control lets you do all the gestures and ANY other gesture you like ive been running aosp for months and prolly wont ever go back to tw....although i really miss multi window, its sick but id rather have my aosp but to each there own make a backup abd try them all out and see what you like...at first i though all the tw goodies were awsome which they are but i rarely ever used them
hey guys, i have the same problem. i am not able to get OTA updatees! do u think its because i am rooted?
my flash counter is 1, I have TWRP though i flashed stock recovery and it didnt work as well?
btw i am doing all this because i want to reset my flash counter to 0 because i just got allshare cast dongle. anyway is there a way to reset the flash counter to 0. btw, i am already using triangle away and for some reason my T-mobile galaxy note 2 stuck at counter 1.

if i flash stock rom would that reset my flash counter to 0? also wanted to know if flashing stock rom would that flash stock recovery as well? currently i have TWRP should i flash stock recovery first before flashing stock rom? I am hopping to flash stock rom without the need to remove TWRP.

i will say it again...flash beans stock rooted vramc3 from twrp recovery.
.zip roms do not replace recovery, only stock odin images do that. also you can do this as a secondary option.

Anyone been successful rooting there SM-N900P 4.4.2 NC5 Root on sprint with kernel 3.4.0-951486 March 18th 2014. Its been a while since I have been on these forums. I am finally looking at rooting my note 3 but I notice there has been some changes with the security with knox. My Galaxy 2 didn’t have this issue and I really don’t want to deal with a non-warranty phone.

Yes, you can root with Towelroot here is the link https://towelroot.com/ download to your device and install. This will give you root without tripping the KNOX warranty counter. If you install a custom recovery it will trip KNOX !!!
If you do want a recovery ( which you need to flash roms ) here is the link to Philz CWM version 6.12.9 .tar the latest for sprint note 3 https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/hltespr/ you might check out my post on Bloatware Lists here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2770729 there is a lot of other info there. ENJOY
I run a note 3 with a stock, debloated, rooted 4.4.2 NC5, with Philz CWM recovery. Ben with Spint for 15+ yrs, had several rooted devices never had problem with Sprint honoring a warranty issue. ( i.e. I rooted the phone the second day I owned it )

Thanks man. I will try this tonight. The biggest reason I want to root is to get spotify premium free and do the increased sound fix.
I use blue tooth sound every day. I will look into custom roms later on. I loved my Galaxy 2..had like 14 roms I switched around all the time.
Thanks again

Cool, the only sound fix I found that works for KK is the one from GamerOnOne ( thanks ) here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2761053 download version 3 Max volume-overkill. It doesn't distort, it changes the factory setting from 84 to 90 which is right at the ragged edge of distortion at full volume. Just about doubles what you have now. There is a problem it is a zip file that has to be flashed though a custom recovery.
You might shout out to GamerOnOne and see if he can make the mod in the form of an APK, that way you could just push it on the device.
I stand corrected here is a link to install roms and mods http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2550120 and it will NOT void KNOX 0x0.

Sorry, but you can't. Rooting the device will allow you to debloat the phone i.e. erase apps. You can run apps that require root like WiFi Tether Router. However, to install a different rom you will need a custom recovery. Download the rom zip file, place it on your sdcard or ext sdcard the reboot the device into custom recovery ( like Philz CWM or TWRP ) wipe cache and delvik cache, then install the rom zip file, reboot phone.

Guys, I'm still new to android so excuse my ignorance.
My s6 is rooted and I don't have a custom ROM. What I do have is a highly tweaked phone (sqlite and other CSC tweaks) What I would like to know is that is it possible to create a Firmware backup of my current phone and state as it sits so if i get into trouble i can use Odin and flash the backup i created. The caveat here is that I don't believe i can install CWM b/c it will trip the Knox counter.
Thanks
