Security module. It can get tripped if someone tries to root it incorrectly or generally modify it on a system level. If it's tripped, some software that relies on security won't work (like samsung pay)
There is a 7-day return period if Knox is tripped or if something is wrong with it. Does anyone know how difficult it is to get these sim-unlocked?
I don't think the eBay sellers do it via unlock code. Looks like all the ones I see listed on there are remote unlocked (need a PC, hook up phone via USB cable and they do it remotely through TeamViewer), but feedback seems to be decent. Never gone this route myself for these however.
Fwiw, Boost will also activate cleared Sprint branded S7's too if you can find one cheaper and manage to get a good rep who knows what they're doing (in store only usually though, guy at the store by me know his stuff).

Would it work ?
I've been looking for an S7 to use with my T-Mobile account for a while now, and there hasn't been any deals on one.

Would also like to know if this can work on TMobile
