Stuck on Knox MDM/KME Lock (Android 16) on Galaxy A35 5G. Any bypass tools?

Hey everyone,

​I bought a second-hand Samsung Galaxy A35 5G and it is locked by Knox Mobile Enrollment (MDM) to a previous organization.

​When turning it on, it skips the setup wizard, opens Chrome, and forces a corporate Microsoft sign-in page.

​My Specs:

​Model: Galaxy A35 5G (A356B)

​Firmware Build: A356BXXUADZE8

​OS: Android 16 (One UI 8.5)

​What has been tried:

​Factory Reset: KME profile just downloads again immediately on Wi-Fi.

​Repair Shop: Tech tried a hardware JTAG method, but Knox encryption blocked it. He says a paid "online server" service is the only way left.

​My Questions:

​Are there any PC tools (UnlockTool, SamFw, Chimera, etc.) that can successfully bypass or disable KME on Android 16?

​If I pay for a remote "online server" IMEI service, is it a permanent removal or just a temporary bypass that breaks on the next factory reset?

​Thanks for any advice!
