(Knox had been triggered on the the tested device already), This has been tested & working on Note 3 N900/Exynos on KitKat ND1 firmware which was on official status without root but Knox triggered, The file was flashed using Odin and after flashing I went into download mode and to my surprise Knox was been reset from 0x1 to 0 but the device status had turned custom (was official before flashing the Knox reset), however I will re-flash the firmware and see if Knox remains 0 and device status turns to official, also there are some different stuff in download mode which I hadn't ever seen before like EMMC PIN, Binary Sboot Version and all. I'll be attaching the screenshots for the same kindly find in attachments.
Edit : After re-flashing the firmware stuff like EMMC PIN and Binary Sboot Version has disappeared Current Binary has turned to official and the Knox has remained to 0 however System Status still appears to be Custom...
Edit 2 : (Refers to previous updates regarding System Status being Custom and not turning to Official.) After trying to flash the firmware several times nothing really worked (nothing to do with Knox and Current Binary only referred to System Status being Custom) hence I went to stock recovery and wiped Data/Factory Reset and Cache Partition and then re-flashed the firmware (ND1 KitKat) and VOILA! Binary/System Status are now Official and now Knox is 0, seems a great success for the Exynos users, I also do have an snapdragon version so will be looking forward to it, screenshots attached....
Edit 3 : The steps for resetting Knox (Exynos Note 3 ONLY!) :
1 - Download this file from here : http://sxtpdevelopers.com/samsung-no...-fix-qualcomm/
2 - Open Odin and put device in download mode.
3 - Select AP/PDA (depending on Odin version you have) and select the file for resetting Knox (which was downloaded during step 1) don't select any other option in odin except F reset time and auto reboot (are selected by default).
4 - After the file is flashed go to download mode and check if the Knox has turned back to 0.
5 - Flash official firmware from sammobile and after flashing is done let the device reboot and boot up to device set-up screen, don't proceed the set-up for setting up device and turn of it off.
6 - Reboot to stock recovery (power + vol up + home) and wipe data/cache and flash the firmware again, once flashing the firmware is completed enter download mode and check if current binary and system status has turned to official if not follow steps number 5 and 6 again.
And that's pretty much it , you have successfully been able to reset Knox and regain warranty by this.
PS : I had done all this steps on ND1 firmware, and this will not keep root access, to root Knox has to be tripped. Also to note this might get (patched) in future updates (bootloaders) if we look at Samsung's history of patching stuff , though not sure about it...
This will not work on any variant other than Exynos (Note 3) due to different processors and the boot system of both Exynos and Snapdragon. (the file for resetting Knox (Exynos) contains Sboot which is only for the Exynos variant which cannot be used on Snapdragon as it uses Aboot). So this is by no way meant to work on SD variant or any other Samsung device ie S5/S4/Note 2 etc. and hence requested NOT TO USE IT on any other model than Exynos Note 3.
★ [MOD] ◢ PurePerformances™X ◣ | Golden Edition | Scary performances on Android
everything you've always wanted from a performance engine, but you never dared to ask __________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ _______________
Here I am back with another mod of the Pure™Series. After improving the system sound quality and graphics, it is time to improve Android. But be careful! This is not the usual performance engine which adds only script in the / init.d folder, This time will be improved the android system at 360°! Basically this engine is a collection of concepts of all performance engine of the forum, that none of us will ever be able to install because many would conflict. My testers were stunned by the power of this engine, but why not try it yourself? Are you ready to receive scary performances, to blow up the AnTuTu score counter?
Well, talk about serious stuff
◢ Features ◣
- Android performances improved at 360° - Radically improved management ram on android (Lags...adios!) - Script lightweight and revised to be adapted to this engine - Improves a lot the graphics: of course Pure Graphic™HD, Pure Dithering Plus™ and... AOSPA 3.60 system tweaks - Scan multimedia time drastically reduced - Network Improvements, 3G experience even in 2G modality - All SQlite database optimized - Enable hardware features turned off by default for a better experience on entry level devices - Greatly increases the score AnTuTu: Try it to believe it!! - Reduces the startup time of Android - A version for stock rom and one for CM, to squeeze any roms! - Allows you to play ported games without lags - Cleans the system every 24 hours, thecache every week and the Dalvik every month (cronos easter egg) - Automatically Zipalign on each boot (sensitive to the user)
Battery
- Drastically decreased the drainage of battery - Check the activities that consume too much battery stop them with PureWakelocks™ - When the phone is charging reduces system services for faster charging - The battery is calibrated on every boot - Disable animation of the system when the battery is nearly exhausted - Improvements in build.prop as regards the part of consumption
Graphics, Screen, Images
- Enables a non-aggressive dithering to save CPU - When you lock the device, the engine makes sure that the GPU is turned off - Enables deep sleepalso in the bugged rom - Parts of bravia engine - Of course parts of CrossBreeder (credits to dev) - Of course parts of Adrenaline Engine (credits to dev) - Of course PureGraphics HD, even though I already told you - Of course V6 supercharger - Generates video entropy (like seeder)
CPU, Governors, I/O Schedulers
- Slightly improves the scaling of the frequencies (for better results you need a good kernel) - Lightens the load on the CPU switching the workload to GPU rendering - Enable the swap partition in Android (experimental)
I've said too much, man. Install this engine and discover its power! :P
