    Might be worth popping in some extra info dav such as which network it is locked to or whether it is unlocked.

    Is the box sealed?
    Is it network locked?
    Does it have KNOX?

    KNOX was introduced in Jellybean 4.3, and while you can uninstall the KNOX software you cannot get rid of the bootloader.

    This isn't an issue "per se" as you can still install a custom recovery and ROM, however if you should install a custom recovery then this changes the bootloader status from 0x0 to 0x1 which means the warranty is void. There is no way to reset this warning as the KNOX bootloader status is essentially a one way fuse.

    I fully intend to install a custom ROM when I do finally get a handset for my son, but if it has KNOX then it's no good as this will void the warranty status should anything actually go wrong with the handset itself.
    More on KNOX below mate

    PS
    Ignore what you read about removing KNOX from stock ROM's, that only applies if you do not have the KNOX bootloader already installed.

    I should have said in my last post, I guess the easiest way to confirm is to go in to Download mode and see if there is a bit of red text in the top left corner that says "KNOX Status Void 0x0" (Google has several examples if you have a search).

    To go in to Download mode, switch the handset off, hold down the volume down + home key, and then hold the power button down until you see the Galaxy S3 logo. Once you see that you can let go, and then confirm yes by pressing the volume up button to go in to Download mode.

    Hi Dav,

    Just a quick update mate, I went in to the O2 shop when I was in Cardiff yesterday and ended up adding him to my existing contract so I don't need a handset now.

    Sorry for getting you at it with the button pressing, but at least it answers those questions for someone else.


    Cheers mate
