Need Help Removing Air Watch From Company Phone On Note 4.... - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I have a note 4 from a company I no longer work for. It was in my drawer for almost a year. I played around with it and tried to wipe it but it wouldn't wipe because of Air Watch. I guess I made it worse when I disabled something I shouldn't which I think was the account for it. Now it stays stuck on the screen of Air Watch and do not know how to remove the company guarded info and just put the normal nougat or older os on there. Any help?

Are you rooted?

Dam. I'm assuming you can't root in the state that it's in as well right?

Hey, I was able to bypass the air watch screen and into the device. Is it possible to perform root at this point to delete the company info and install a fresh OS?

I don't think the Note 4 VZW version ever did gain root. Did a quick search and it looks like there was a bounty thread for it. Not 100% sure it ever got root though

[Q] S4 woes

OK. I am going to provide as much detail as I can for now. Please let me know what additional information will help you help me. Thanks
I have a S4 for Verizon. I have been trying to root it so I can load the Google edition image on it. However, none of the tutorials I have seen seem to work on my device. I bought it brand new direct from Samsung off contract (didn't want to loose my unlimited data) so I don't think I can get a warranty replacement through Verizon (haven't rooted it yet). The furthest I seem to get is that SuperSU gets installed but will not download the binaries. So I cannot continue with the rest if the steps with rooting and re-imaging. Also, most steps have you install a specific kernal version as the first step but not sure if that is happening because my screen don't look the same as the ones in the tutorials.
Phone: SCH-1545
OS ver: 4.3
Kernal: 3.4.0
Build: JSS15J.1545VRUEMJ7
HW ver: 1545.06
Thanks.

Just so you know, the only thing available for MJ7 build is root. Installing a custom recovery or custom ROMs is not possible at this time.

Not with MJ7 firmware they aren't.
If you didn't buy a developer edition, you my friend, are screwed.

No. Once the phone is updated, there is no way to go back.
As I stated above, all we can do is root. With root we can debloat and use Xposed framework to make some changes.

That doesn't really accomplish what I want though. Not your fault obviously. Do you know if this is a Verzion thing or just the device itself? Thanks

It's Verizon, they lock down every phone they sell. You have to do research before you buy your phone if you want custom software on Verizon, or switch carriers.

I know Verzon sucks in that regard but the service is awesome. I get full 4G coverage just about everywhere and I've got unlimited data still. Plus, I didn't buy it from them, I payed full price from an online vendor so that I wouldn't have to change my contract.
Oh well, guess I'll just have to keep an eye out for when someone finally cracks it.
I hate waiting....

How about Root!

Well looks like Im the first here, so I will ask......any root possibilities. Received my S6 Edge+ today and would love to open it up!

There are security measures on the phone through knox to stop us from rooting this phone. Carrier specific I think to Verizon and AT&T looks like we might have to wait a while

Yes 5.02 had the exploit which was patched in the 5.1.1 update. And to add insult to injury if you flashed to 5.1.1 there's no flashing back (even using ODIN with stock builds) to 5.02. A lot of people permanently lost root this way.
I read that Verizon and AT&T will not boot anymore if rooted. It will show a black screen and message that the phone was rooted.

I have had 6 different Samsung devices and rooted all. Never had a single issue. I love rooting. So far I am surviving without it. I figure it might take a month or two til it's obtained. Canadian variants usually get root with T-Mobile.

Thanks.

If you mean with magisk, some of the folks there can help you
It's getting to the point of having to make a choice. Some have found it won't work if you just have an unlocked bootloader. Which a few other apps have also employed

No I mean it looks for if the bootloader is unlocked. I'll have to go back and read what apps are doing this again just to be sure which ones they are.

Unless you can unlock the bootloader and get OEM access I do not believe it will be possible. I wonder if we call T-Mobile tho unlock the bootloader like they unlock the sim that we could then Flash the Internationa T865 and also Root.

I was able get a temp unlock after 400+ hours of up time.
It's good until Sept.
Still no OEM in dev settings

No OEM unlock option in T-Mobile Samsung S9+?

I have a T-Mobile s9+ and for the life of me, I cannot get the OEM unlock button to show in Dev options. I've had my phone for over the 7 days, as I saw you need. I've even tried doing the "change the date manually and restart" trick and no luck.
Is there no option for the T-Mobile version of this phone and it's already OEM unlocked? Can I just go ahead and root my phone without issue? Or do I need to get that button before I can go ahead and root/install a new rom?
If you have the G965U, no you will not be able to unlock the boot loader.. My oppinon, is when all manufactures were done stealing ideas from dev's live here on XDA.. They decided they did not need them anymore and locked the phones down.

You can install GSI, but they have the same downsides that the default oreo root ROM included has, if not more. I'm on 10 too lol. I tested it, played around with it then went back to stock. It was neat.

I mean the good thing about this method is that it doesn't unlock bootloader, so it doesn't trip knox. The bad thing about not unlocking bootloader is that you can't install custom kernels or recoveries.
