Okay?
What goes wrong?
What set up do you have?
What file are you using to flash in Odin?
We're happy to help you but you've given no description of the problem. We need as much detail as you can think of, dont' assume any detail is too small or unimportant.

Well basically I heard that the 4.3 update stops you from using odin to go back to 4.2.

I don't think Knox does stop it. You will just continue to have the knox flag tripped and as of yet that is not reversable. So it will be obvious that you used Odin.
I do think you can do it though.

Is there any hope that KNOX tripped flag could be inverted?! Does it only voids warranty or it prevents to gets new OTA updated from the provider to?
This is called the qfuse. All samsung s4's have it in some variety.
The gist is by updating it kicks a counter over on what is assumed to be a chip.
That count invalidates any previously valid signing certificates (and theirs speak pf restructuring the boot process to make it harder) preventing even signed installs of a previous signature.

Will this revert everything back to stock? I mean will root be lost, and Knox reset? I've been reading some posts that just rooting the phone makes you lose the ability to get OTA updates. I actually can confirm as all I did was root, and now checking for updates says my device has been modified, and I can't get them.

Hey thanks for the file saved my ass after a botched recovery install. I hope someone can post this file up on another website because last night i tried to download using the slow (NONE PAY) method at http://www.filefactory.com/file/5u0ud54hxu3l/N900TUVUBMI7_N900TTMBBMI7_TMB.zip
and waited four hrs (at 3am) for the download to fail with a server error after 4.5 hrs. So i felt better to pay the website for their unlimited speed downloads. Well that was a crock of S*** because i still had to wait for over an hour to complete the download. I hope someone will post this somewhere where it can be easier to get so you don't suffer my grief.
I do want to thank deeznutz1977 for the file because without it I would still be stuck in a bootlopp at startup after installing twrp recovery that apparently has some real issues. Thanks for saving my bacon deeznutz1977.
when you apply via odin is this PDA or PHONE?

I have heavily modified the MotoChopper exploit by XDA member drjbliss to handle the new changes to file permissions in JellyBean 4.3+. Because this tool is based on MotoChopper it will likely support the same device list that MotoChopper supports however i have only tested it on the T-mobile T999 & T999L and the i337 .
If you would like to test it on other devices it should be fairly safe to try as it should either work or fail, of course testing anything like this is always at your own risk and i am not liable for any damage to your device, self esteem and so on. If you do test it on your device, please report your results here so that I can try to fine tune it if need be.
For this current version you will have to have TWRP installed on your device.
if it works for you don't forget to hit the thanks button! enjoy.
all instructions on how to use are inside the tool. this is for windows users only.

So sorry I need to edit the main post, I have been working on so many different projects, we did not test it on the M919 it was actually tested on the i337. If you are talking about the flash counter though this will not trip the flash counter, however flashing twrp will trip the binary status, and possibly the Knox counter, I need someone to test it, but I can't tell you how to correct it if it does trip it.
i guess what i should say is that while i have not had a confirmed success of fail on the m919 i have provided the tool to a few who have not been kind enough to report its status

No it will not erase the data on your phone.
The step by step instructions are inside the tool, if you need instructions on how to flash TWRP to your device via Odin you can find them in the forums. I would include them but it is really outside of the scope of the tool, while the tool requires TWRP to work TWRP is not related in any way to the tool, the tool is simply TWRP dependent.
It has worked on the i337 already, whether or not it works on mk2 has yet to be determined, however the tool is designed in such a way it will either work or fail, if it fails it will not harm your device.

Ok guys, new to this phone, just came from an xperia z. I've been doing some reading and i'm a little bit lost.
So far I have my phone on 4.2.2, never been updated, and i have it rooted and running clockworkmod as a recovery.
I have a few questions before I do anything, i've been reading about KNOX and i'm a bit confused. Does KNOX come back when you update to a different rom? When I fired up SuperSU for the first time it asked me if I wanted to disable KNOX features, and it did so successfully. My question is, is there anything to look out for before updating?

If you update via OTA, your bootloader will come with a KNOX counter, which cannot be reset at the moment. If you flash anything when you have that, it will trip the counter and your warranty is voided.
I'd suggest flashing a 4.3 or 4.4 rom if you wanna update it, then flash the MK2 modem to get normal signal.

Ok, I do not care about any warranty, I take care of my electronics. Not trying to be rude, but i wanted to clear that up. I know warranty is out the window at this point.
So I can update to just about any rom, but i would have to flash the MK2 modem right after to fix signal problems?
Sorry for so many questions, but i guess I am a bit late getting into the S4 game.
Yes, that's right. Beware of potential issues though, some people have reported the modem didn't stick when they flashed it. It went fine for me and most people, but I just wanna give you a heads up.
And somehow flashing rom with Odin always causes issues for me. TWRW is the best!

I'm not planning on flashing roms through ODIN, just the modem.
So if i flash this now, its SUPPOSED to stick onto the phone even if i fluctuate through different roms?
Also, if i install a rom that says knox-free i would be able to flash it no problem right?
Yes. You only need to flash the modem once. All the custom roms on here are KNOX free, so no worries there.

Great. Thank you for the help! I just flashed the modem and its showing mk2 in the baseband version, so i guess it went through. It had the 4.2.2 bootloader, not the 4.3.
So just to clarify, now that it has this installed I'm free to install any custom rom I want?

I take care of my S4 too, and I still avoid Knox like the plague. I'm sure the next person to own this phone will appreciate it.
Anyway, you might consider installing Mobile Odin from the Play Store. I've flashed a couple roms that caused my baseband to show as unknown and using MO to reflash the MK2 modem was insanely more convenient than using Odin on my PC.
I have a T-mobile Galaxy S4 and it's currently running danvdh's GPE edition. I am considering updating via the OTA to get the new baseband/radio. I currently have the mixed MK2/MDL radio/baseband. I know that I'll get knox if I update...but IIRC, the Knox apps are able to be removed, and flashing new ROMs will trip Knox, but aside from voiding the warranty, what else does this do? Nothing? Lol

This is a full and complete answer, by the way. That is all it will do aside from the warrent.y It does not affect your daily use at all.
Just to confirm though. If I go back to complete stock and do this update and then apply any kind of root it will hit the Knox flag right?
Right now mine is still 0x0
Pretty sure it's flashing a custom recovery that trips Knox, not rooting.
