[CLOSED] Can't remove 80% battery limit on stock Exynos devices?

As per title I am owning a SM-N930FD (first batch) and I apparently cannot get rid of the 60-80% battery limit no matter how many tutorials (yours and XDA's) I try.
Is this as it has to be with Exynos devices or what?
What is sure is that I CANNOT downgrade or revert.
Packages also were disabled, but I still get the 60% warning popup (although I can then go into Settings and arise the limit to 80%).
Root or nothing?

Hello,
The only way now to get back 100% battery on N930F/FD is to install a custom rom like hydra rom. Tuto is on xda forum.

Rooting is the last and only solution then.
I will keep the 80% limit then as I need KNOX not tripped.

and as I've not looked into the process my self, I'll assume there's been no way around unlocking the boot loader thus far?

I don't want to 'cause that would mean KNOX tripped (aka no NFC payment service working anymore).

You should look into possibly rooting with TowelRoot (which I believe may not trip Knox) where as rooting with CF-Root will trip the Knox and make things not work correctly.

I am not 100% sure, but at today there should be no rooting method that allows not to trip KNOX on latest Samsung devices (S6, S7, Note7, etc.).

Interesting. Well, look into TowelRoot. Some resources I've read say that TowelRoot allows Exynos versions unlock without disabling Knox.
