'm a newbie here so sorry if it is very stupid question.
I have just rooted my device and I found that I can't enter the knox mode anymore.
I have stored some files in knox mode and forgot to move it out.
Is there anyway to restore these files? If it can't, can I delete all of them because these files are heavy - which are 6 GBs.
I prefer deleting these files 'cause of they're too large.
Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it.
As I know supersu disable the Knox,u can not access to it.
Delete I think no problem.

I can't access even I didn't disable knox in supersu. Anyway, could you show me how to delete its data?
Can use titanium backup to delete few Knox files.

I think I can use root browser to delete the files, but I don't know where they're stored

If your not rooted you cant. If you are rooted use a file manager to go to /system/app and delete, or move the apk's of the apps you dont want. Be carefull dont delete the wrong thing or you may bootloop your phone. Alternativley you could use titamnum backup or other apps on the market to freeze the system apps you dont want.
If you don't want to get too technical with moving apk's there is always titanium backup paid version which lets you freeze apps. After moving the apks on my incredible and then moving them back for OTA updates I wanted something easier for the bionic I got. Titanium lets me freeze them so they don't run, or show up in the app list. The free version doesn't do it but i think the 5$ or whatever was worth it for me.

to add to this. if you rename the file from .apk to .bak and re boot, and if the phone doesnt FC like craze you can go back and delete the .bak files. i did this in the beginning to make sure i wasn't deleting something that would harm my phone.
here is also a list that is ok to delete.

You shouldn't get a boot loop if you remove what they call "bloat ware"

Rooting is the same procedure, just make sure you have the latest version of Superuser as a flashable zip. I think there is a thread floating around somewhere to see what bloatware you can/cannot delete.
You can download 'root uninstaller' from app market and it would back up all the apps for you. If you accidentally delete any app you don't suppose to, you would have a backup. Also it highlights some system apps RED that you might don't want to delete.
Is it possible to remove the bloatware apps on a HOX without having to flash a new Rom? I can deal with rooting my phone but the rom business is confusing and id rather keep Sense but get rid of the pointless apps if thats possible
Thanks, apologies if this has been covered before.
Here's what we're going to do.
Root your device.
Get "Root Explorer" or any other file explorer with root capabilities.
Mount R/O.
Go to "system ->app" and remove what you like.
Keep in mind that there are some system apps that shouldn't be removed though!

Thanks, will do.
Is it easy to upgrade rom, say when KLP is released?
You must make a nandroid backup directly after flashing the custom recovery. You need it to get back to full stock to be able to have official updates.
If you want to delete system apps i would like to recommend titanium backup.....you can uninstall and re-install system apps.
Removing Bloatware
Try an app called "Root App Delete". I tested it by removing one piece of bloatware and seems to work very well (you must be rooted).
Being over cautious I have disabled (rather than deleted) all other bloatware for 2 weeks now just to be sure all is ok to delete.
yes it is possible

There are many apps listed
you can try sd maid, rom toolbox, root uninstall,
See you have many options now
Thanks for your replies, can you not get OTA updates when you're rooted even if you stick with stock Rom then?
Yes you can but you have to leave the rom itself 100% stock (no removing of system apps) and you have to reflash the stock recovery after applying the root because you root the rom via a custom recovery.....i dont know exactly if a tool can root the rom without a custom recovery.....

Backing up a stock ROM is kinda pointless since you can always ODIN the original firmware. However, you can now use Titanium Backup for your apps and SMS Backup and Restore for your text messages and not trip Knox.
Alternatively, you can use Samsung Kies for general backup.

that wont work since i need to backup all my system settings and app settings. so i got 2 questions:
1) will adb backup save my system settings?
2) will titanium save my personal settings of my apps?

From my experience, Titanium Backup restores even my login info so I believe it saves everything. I believe it even backs up system apps.

Here's the bottom line. As of right now, until someone figures out a way to circumvent Knox, it's kinda pointless. Let's say you are able to backup your \system partition. In order to Restore it, you will need to go through Recovery. Any custom recovery will trip Knox as of this time. So let me do some more digging or until someone has any input. Good luck.

yeah sounds good.. and thank u i appreciate all ur help.. lets keep working at this.
Hi there. I'm using m8. I have a small problem. There is no sound from the phone. The reason for this is that I delete system files. I could not back up. What do I do? interacting with the stock android phone. I live in turkey.
Which files did you delete? I'll extract them from my system and upload em for you. Then all you need to do is placing them back and setting the right permissions.

Up
If you deleted files, and don't know what you deleted (and didn't back anything up), its very hard for anyone to help you.
You said stock phone, but I assume you are rooted, as altering system files is not possible otherwise. Do you have custom recovery installed (TWRP or CWM)? If so, find the appropriate nandroid from the nandroid collection and rstore it. Or find a stock rooted or stock-ish custom ROM and flash it.
