Your Modification For your Phone has triggered (Tripped) KNOX as Custom not Official. The 0X1 Means Modified, And your Warranty is Void. If you are in the TW (TouchWiz) ROM, you can't update OTA via Phone Settings.
KNOX is a Samsung Security for a phone which protect the original phone so the phone is Untouchable for modification from Unsigned OEMs (e.g Custom ROM, Recovery, and other related to it). For now we can't change the KNOX Statement from Tripped to Un-Tripped (0X1 to 0X0 which is the default Statement)

You can update ota with tripped knox.
You can't update only when modifying stock rom or rooting also using custom recovery.
If you want ota just flash stock !

Hello,
I'd like to ask if I can safely downgrade my current XXUEML9 ROM to some older releases of 4.3 s3 i9305 official Samsung ROMs.
Why do that? I've read some reports that first releases of 4.3 ROMs for i9305 could be rooted with kingo without tripping knox flag and the XXUEML9 release has been reported to be tripping the flag (some new samsung's security measures introduced meanwhile), so I think it could be worth trying but better safe than sorry - I know I can't downgrade to 4.1.2 or whatever under 4.3 but what about new 4.3 to "older" 4.3? Just wondering if there aren't safety patches in the bootloader itself that prevent users from downgrading to anything lower than current FW
Thanks for your help.
you can do it safely...i would recommend doing a factory reset after it...just to be sure it won't mess with kingoapp...i did it without problems(i tripped knox way before doing this)

thanks for the info,
I plan to do it that way:
1. enter factory recovery -> factory wipe
2. odin -> flash oldest 4.3 i9305 stock image
3. if bootloops -> repeat step 1.
4. kingo root -> let's see if knox stays 0x0, ofc I'll let you know in the thread here
5. whatever ROM, but keeping stock kernel and stock recovery (otherwise all the steps above pointless)
Kingo trips knox

I doubt it. Kingo either roots the phone or fail, and then gives you option of installing custom recovery which trips Knox flag.

Which firmware is the oldest 4.3?

seems that XXUEMKC is the oldest 4.3 - it has the release date 28.11.2013
well, looks like a lottery with kingo root; but as far as I read in some forums some were successful with rooting that way and keeping the flag 0x0 with older FWs and everybody reporting using kingo on latest FWs says it had tripped KNOX
and, to be clear - as of now, there aren't any other ways to root i9305/4.3 than:
a) kingo (knox lottery)
b) CF-Root (trips knox)
..
..
z) waiting for miracle and some new rooting methods?

I think you are right. I have MKC firmware but not able to root with Kingo. It always failed and asked if i wanted to install custom recovery with root which will trip Knox flag, and i always clicked 'NO' button. My knox flag remains 0x0 but phone not rooted.
so, all the things I planned turn out to be pointless
the ***MKC PDA FW is the oldest one of 4.3 for i9305
you've got no root on MKC via kingo, and I got some information from a Polish forum, that kingo did the root on MKC but tripped the flag anyway (I can only assume it tries to get the root through some dirty tricks via cable and if it fails that way, it offers to flash custom recovery in order to flash apk and su binary to the system).
so, for the time being CF-Root seems the only reasonable option to root - you'll trip knox either way, but without sending all your sensitive data to china and back.
Found something interesting about the knox counter, my OTA update failed and when I went to use Kies, I was told I had a modified ROM. I went to download mode and it seems the failed OTA triggered the counter.
I went to someone here who can reset it and then tried to flash a HK image on a Chinese unit, of course with the locked loader it failed immediately, once again Knox was tripped, as this was duplicated several times it is probably safe to claim that the knox trigger is unreliable and would be defensible in a warranty argument.
Interesting, but I'm not sure I would count on this to work. Seems like it would be easy for Samsung to argue against it.
you would say the OTA tripped knox??

Failed OTA tripped knox
Q. Are you rooted and have you modified your system partition?
If so, I can see why the OTA failed and it's possible that detecting a modified system partition when trying to apply the OTA is what tripped KNOX.
Dear friends,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 Active GT-I9295. I got it with Jellybean where in download mode I saw knox warranty void 0x0 however after updating to lollipop 5.0.1 it dissapear and I saw the following in Download Mode:
Odin Mode
Product Name: GT-I9295
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
CSB-Config-LSB: 0x30
Secure Download: Enable
Write Protection: Enable
eMMC Burst Mode enabled
What does that mean that I no more have Knox Security installed and I can flash custom recovery without tripping knox or it is just hidden?
P.S In Apps Manager i see that KMLS Agent and other related apk for knox is installed.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Can someone help please?
Not much investigation done on i9295 about Knox. Since approx 95% hardware is identical to i9505 the findings about that device is best guess. Links and knowledge gathered here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56955843
Despite so called Knox free ROMs where all related apps and libs are removed, to my understanding and supported by many posts in i9505 thread, this is not Knox-free when bootloader still has Knox features. Downgrade bootloader only or flash Jellybean stock ROM on top of this so called Knox-free ROM or any Knox bootloader will most likely trip knox 0x1.
Own experience:
KitKat NE4 - flashed CF-Auto-root for I9505 - CWM 6035 - *6047 - *6051 - CM11 (several official) - TWRP 2840 - stock Lolipop OB4.
NEVER downgraded bootloader (or felt urge to mess with modem /non-hlos.bin relationship)
Knox 0x0 all the time and still reports 0x0 when checked by app PHONE INFO *Samsung*
Can confirm identical Download mode text for OB4.
READ tips in my thread and learn how to flash custom recovery 1st time correct and later perhaps zip install SuperSU 2.46 (free) to gain root.
Rather comprehensive guide provided by @ANX13TY http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=59326914 still you ask how to throw phone into towel root? Towel root is insecure kernel. Fastest way isn't necessary best way.
CF-Auto-root 442 NH2 might work as well when rooted 442 kernel run in stock recovery...
I'd like to flash TWRP onto my Note 5, but want to be absolutely sure it will NOT trip the KNOX counter. Is this a possibility at all, or does flashing any custom recovery lead to KNOX being tripped?
I am NOT looking to root the phone - I just need TWRP. (I am fully aware that at the moment, all rooting methods will trip the KNOX counter.)
Thanks!
Tom

It will trip Knox.
Thanks for confirming - that's what I figured as well.
I'm guessing that flashing ANYTHING other than the unmodified stock image would result in Knox being tripped...

Flashing other recoveries, kernels, and modified firmware packages will trip Knox.
Hello, i have question. If i root my phone or flash rom is there any way to get knox and get the phone unrooted, with official firmware? Via odin? Please tell about that, i need to know if i lose knox FOREVER...
Thank you.
Once you have rooted or install a custom OS onto your Samsung Device you will trip Knox and Knox will be disabled on your device.

You can unroot by flashing stock firmware, but you will still lose Knox forever (including secure folder, etc.). Knox can't be untripped.
