Samsung Smart Care Apps - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi,
I am a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 GT-N7100 user, I just only want let you all know that Samsung Smart Care App is a app which will detect system whether got root or not. If got root then it will require root access to modified the system so we can not use OTA then in download mode, we will see system status modified as custom. Hope all rooted stock rom users do not install that app. Thanks.

Sprint note 2 rooted

If there's no such binary installed on my note 2 and I have a software update is it safe to install it without having problems?
I have no idea what rooted means I bought phone like this. Help please. Thanks
It basically means you can install non-official software on the phone such as different, lighter versions (less bloated) of the official ROMs as well as some modifications to make the phone faster or more conservative when it comes to battery usage.

To answer, yes you can install without breaking anything. When updated you may lose root though, there are certain apps out there to help you maintain root with OTA updates if you are wanting to keep it. but more than likely since you are rooted you have a non-stock recovery image. So when the update says rebooting into recovery it will go to your recovery and not install. You will simply reboot your phone and the update notification will be gone.
Although software updates usually break root, the most recent update for note 2 doesn't seem to do that. But it's always smarter to assume it will and protect your root somehow.

[Q] OTA update with a rooted NON custom rom?

Hi everyone,
I rooted my Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 2 a few months back with ODIN I believe. I have had superuser access and can wirelessly tether, increase volume, remove camera click etc.... Love it, all this on Android 4.1. I never flashed any custom rom, just rooted.
Now 4.3 is being pushed to my phone, is it safe to install it? what happen if I do, do I lose root, brick the phone etc? Or, does everything stay the same but now I have 4.3 and not 4.1
As a backup I have a Sprint Note 3 not even opened just in case things go wrong. I know volume is low on Note 3 so in advance any hacks for note 3?
But for now, focus s on the OTA for Sprint Galaxy note 2 and any adverse side effects of accepting the OTA
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
1. It is not safe to install official OTA to your rooted 4.1(only by Kies).
2. You will lose root or you will stay in bootloop.
3. Usually we flash custom rom using twrp(cwm) or ODIN.
Thank you!

Pokemon Go on Note 2

My sister has been playing Pokemon Go with galaxy note 2 (n7100) last month and now she can't login due to new update (0.37) that restricts use of any custom ROMs I assume. I've tried removing and hiding root but no luck. There is DN4 rom installed and it is so good that I don't like to change it without purpose. Can someone share your experience with this game? Can you play it using modded/stock 4.4.2 roms? Or maybe using Magisk on newer roms?.. What a cruel way to ruin childern mood, Niantic!
Magisk is supposed to work. But try at your own risk.

OR you can always install the older version (if they still let you play it, but No Buddy System in it.)
Hi, i've the same issue.
I'm french user, i tried "hide my root" apk, i never cheat with the root it only necessary for me to block ads and because of cheaters we are blocked !
I have no success with hiding root.
Is the 0.37 update upgrade the test of compatible device and made the GN2 definitively unavailable or is the root ability which made issues ?
Thanks
So.. just a thought.. but technically if I am not mistaken.. This sud work out..
1. Use kingoroot and root ur device.
2. Install lucky patcher and install flygps/fake gps app as a system app (this way mock locations isn't required to be turned on)
3. Unroot using the same app, kingoroot claims it unroots as well.
4. Play pokemonGo.

A520 2017, How to revert Knox to 0x0 from 0x1 after rooting

Hi,
can anyone help me to revert A520f 2017 Knox to 0x0.
Unfortunately I tried to Root my A5 2017, I am luckily successful to root my phone, but after that I realized that I will not receive OTA nor able to use sHealth app.
So I downloaded stock Rom and Totally re-flash everything(AP, BL, CSC...).... Although it remove the Custom recovery + super user etc. But when I tried to Open sHealth App, it saying that "Due to new Security Policy Samsung Health cannot be opened on a Rooted device. 0x110040581".
So, Is there any way available to reset everything means to bring it to zero position?

Can you tell me is there any way available to use Samsung Health App. I am not worried about knox tripped nor warrenty clain... but worried about using default Application, OTA and Patch etc.
Would it possible use all these using root? Or any other way available..
Eg. I was using xposed in LG G3 which having small app like root clock. Which allow to fake those app which were not working on rooted device. But knox case seems different

If you want to hide root, use Magisk su instead.

No I dont want to hide root explicitly , I just want to use Samsung Health Application, if there is any way available to by pass the error message
"Due to new Security Policy Samsung Health cannot be opened on a Rooted device. 0x110040581".
Kindly tell me, either by hiding the Root Or Editing any file

I just told you, to bypass apps that detect root you need Magisk su.

You are able to use samsung health after rooting.
you have to be rooted again and i would recommend using TWRP + Magisk to root so it is systemless and you can still pass safetynet after rooting.
you will need to download TWRP, Magisk v12.0, dm-verity patch.
1. put magisk v12.0 and dm-verity patch onto the sdcard in the phone
2. flash TWRP
3. boot into recovery and swipe to allow modifications.
4. under wipe there should be a button to format data (its in the bottom right). you will need to do this to flash magisk and dm verity.
5. flash dm verity and THEN magisk
6a. boot into phone and complete setup to get to home page.
6b. download any systemless root app that you want (adaway works you just have to turn on systemless host files in magisk settings + viper4andriod has a module in magisk that you download for it to work)
(DO NOT TURN ON HIDE MAGISK UNTIL THE END)
7. download the app buildprop editor, open it and grant it root. search for the line ro.config.tima=1 and change the value from 1 to 0.
8. reboot the phone and you should now be able to use s health.
continue following if you wish to pass safetynet and be playstore certified (set up your root apps like viper and adaway before doing this)
9. go into magisk settings and enable the setting Magisk Hide. reboot phone. check that you pass safetynet in magisk manager after booting up again
10. go into app manager, find google play store, tap storage and then clear the data.
11. open app again and you should be certified. (this took me a few tries. not sure if it was play store needing to update the property or me needing to reboot the phone)
12. Yay! your device should now be able to pass safetynet and will be play store certified in the play store app. you should soon be able to see netflix in the play store again.

Root galaxy S9 question

Hi, can anyone tell me this, if root my device my Knox is tripped, later if i install a original rom can i have access again to security folder and Samsung pay etc.. again? or i dont have access anymore with original rom whith knox tripped.
Can anyone help me plz
Once you trip knox you're screwed with those apps.
IIRC now don't quote me on this, but Magisk from what I know allows the user to hide the fact that their device is rooted so that apps like GooglePay still work without detecting that the device has been modified. Not sure if it's the same with Samsung exclusive apps but I wouldn't risk it. If you use those features regularly I don't recommend it. But perhaps someone else might know more about this.
