Hi,
I live in Shanghai, China. Everyone who lives here knows that any phone you purchase here , even good brands (such as Samsung etc..) will not any have google applications installed. It's almost impossible to get these phones fixed without changing their roms, which is inconveneint and dangerous. From my personal experience once you change the rom of your chinese phone to a foreign one, you will never get the optimum performance. I first purchased a Samsung Galaxy S5660 in China. It worked perfectly expect for the fact that I couldn't use any google app. After being unable to add these applications, I finally flashed some rom from Europe. Then the market etc , all google apps worked fine but the performance was bad. Battery life was really poor. Also I changed several roms after that , none of which gave me the same performance which I had with the original chinese rom.
Now I have got a new Galaxy Note (not N7000), in China it's called I9220. I ran in to the exact same problem. No market, no google , absolutely nothing!! After a lot of research I was able to fix it this morning. If you have got the same problem then follow the steps. Here is how you do it!..
(But I must warn you that I am not responsible for any damage to your phone. Please do it at your own risk).
First use this video guide below :

In the above guide follow both recommendations. I mean root your device and then also change your kernel to FrancoICS. Both worked on my I9220 without any problems. My phone started and it was already rooted. Also I got the Clockworkrecovery as the default recovery.
Once you have finished this task, the final task is adding all the google applications. This is quite easy and I did it myself.
1. Go to the website goo.im/gapps and download the latest ICS gapps zip file, currently it is gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip.
2. Save it to your external SD card.
3. Reboot into Clockwork recovery mode (you should know how to do this if you have already succesfully rooted your device using the above method)
4. Choose "install zip file from external sd"
5. Find the Gapps file and install it.
6. Done, and restart your phone.
You now have your Original Stock Chinese rom, but it's rooted and you have installed all google applications. Just make a google account and you can use the android market.
Even with the google market working , you cannot access many application since you are in China. If you want to be able to download all applications available in the USA for example, then you must also install marketEnabler.

//Just google search market enabler, you will find it very easily.
1. After you install it, run it and choose T-Mobile (USA) and then click Fake this provider now.
Now if you use Google Market, you should be able to install or download almost any app (such as youtube, facebook, skype etc...)
I hope this is helpful to all the foreigners in China who are tortured by Chinese android phones that only come with Chinese bloatware and doesn't allow you to install any English app or access google stuff..
Good Luck!
Note : When I got my new phone today, it already had ICS so this whoe process worked for me. If your chinese I9220 isn't ICS, it's gingerbread, then don't attempt it, because it might not work.
Thanks a lot. It works on my Samsung S7562 which bought from China.

first switch off your phone then press the three button combination i.e. power +home +volume up and then when you see it getting started(when your phone model no. is shown up) then release the power button and continue pressing the other two buttons i.e. home +volume up

lol you are funny, Franko kernel was developed at xda, he quit developing, not sure why could have been ungrateful community, Its always had lots of bugs, but if it works for you it works. I wouldnt be surprised the rest originated from xda as well.
You better be careful with cwm. zip its been known to superbrick devices. Safest way to root would be the drPhills superuser and busybox zip, flashable as a upgrade zipbfrom stock recovery.

Samsung GT-S7568 China Model
Hi There.
I am new to this site but feel the solution posted would have fixed my problem had I found it before I tried messing around with ROM’s.
I have just returned from Shanghai where I purchased a Samsung Galaxy Trend GT-S7568. This model appears to only be available in china from my research. It is an original Samsung product not one of the many fakes out there.
In my attempts to get it to work with an English ROM, being the idiot that I am. I never created a backup of the system. I appear to have soft bricked the phone and I am unable to find a tool that can fix it. I am also unable to find an original stock ROM to attempt to get it back to the original Chinese firmware.
I have tried OneClick and I have also tried a firmware for the GT-S7562 (possibly what caused my current issue). I have found the Samsung official open source download page and have downloaded the correct files from there but have no idea how to prepare them to be transferred to the device as the “read me” file is not much help that came with the download.
Currently the Phone will boot into Download Mode but no matter what ROM I try The Oden Tool keeps failing at the complete Write operation.
I am hoping that I have posted this in the correct forum. If I not I am sorry but it is the closest I could find to my situation.
Any help or direction anyone may have would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You!

Thanks,my phone is GT-I9220, And this thread truly helps in rooting installing google apps.
What I want to add is to prepare an external sdcard before watching the video,
ar....
i have the i9220.
All i have to do is odin the stock rom from Hong Kong. (available @ SamMobile)
It is fast and stable, no problem whatsoever, and it has good battery life too. (that is only if you do not activate everything and keep you account in sync as little as possible, i only have google and facebook under sync.)

Hy, i'd like to root my S7568 as you did. Did you use the same files for Galaxy note as it is showed in the video?
Thanks!
Can't root my chinese mobile! Please give me some hope!
Hy everybody!
As I have bought a chinese samsung mobile, I can't use google play. So I'm trying to root it. I went through many software as Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v30 , SRSRoot for Android , SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse and more. I also tried to do it as it is said in thoses previous post but there is nothing to do...
I think it's because my mobile:
Samsung GT-S7568
Ice cream sandwich 4.0.4
Is only available in China and all thoses software may not support my device.
So here comes my question. Do I have still any chance to take?
Thanks a lot!
Denffy
PS: the mobile is not a fake!

Guys help me out I have the exact problem did you get help, after installing the franco kernel all I get is a black screen
Delete - Bad forum
Hi guys, so in another thread (thx to starsky23 and hpblze) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682101) some guys extracted the kernel of the newest Firmware from March 11 (korean firmware) and it seems to fix some or all of the screen shaking/multitouch issues.
Please note I'm just a user and I have no idea why it works, it just does Maybe someone with actual knowledge can have a closer look at it? Anyway it's safe and worked without issues for me.
Since we don't know when Samsung will release new official firmwares here's the fix:
You need:
-Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) wifi only, SM-P600 with Samsung Firmware/Roms Android 4.3 (for 601 users: it will work but it will kill 3G reducing your tablet to Wifi only)
-Root & Root explorer (the kernel will break wifi at first, so you need a way to edit build.prop to fix that)
-Odin
What it fixes:
-No more screen shaking when you hold the screen with your finger
-Touch input when holding the screen won't drop after ~23sec
-It also fixes apps like USB/BT JoyCenter (map touch input to gamepad buttons) which didn't recognize the touchscreen before.
How to:
1. Download the file:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/29704739/SM-P600_Kernel_KXUANC2_Odin.tar
2. boot into download mode (power+volume down) and load up Odin 3.07 (that's what I used) on your PC.
3. Flash the Kernel as PDA like regular firmware.
4. Let the Tablet reboot and notice that it won't connect to Wifi, when you go to settings/device info under kernel it should have the following date "Tue Mar 11"
5. Now open root explorer and browse to system/ and open build.prop with a text editor.
6. Find the line 'ro.securestorage.support=true' and change it to 'ro.securestorage.support=false' (no quotation marks).
7. Save build.prop and reboot the tablet.
8. Wifi should work again and touch issues are fixed.
Have fun

Lets hope crappy lazy Samsung to release the same fix for SM-P605 with 4.4 update.
Thanks
Works great, thank you!
did you do a dirty flash or did you wipe anything first?
or after.
I didn't wipe anything. I don't even have a custom recovery installed.

Cool. I already did it before you replied back. I didn't wipe anything either. And it worked perfectly! Very happy with my device now! Team XDA never let's me down! How do we not run Samsung after all these years? Lol

Hey guys. I'm a little curious. Does this fix the screen shaking completely or do you guys still notice a little bit of shake when long pressing an app?
Reason I ask is that I am running the Taiwan firmware and I just got an OTA update to the latest Taiwan firmware. It seems to have "fixed" this issue to an extent, but a little bit of jitter is still there when long pressing an app. Not sure if the same happens with you.

I'm talking about the NB1 firmware (new Taiwan one I'm running ) compared to this one (NC2).
Anyway it's very minor, I'll be holding the app down and it won't be having a seizure like it normally did, but it still moves around a little and doesn't stay completely still. Kinda hard to describe without a video or something lol.

I believe , that this fix is a workaround to an earthing issue that plagues a lot of other devices like the nexus and some xperia devices,to name a few
The problem is not 100 percent solved , but 80 percent solved ... I guess they reduced the over sensitivity in software .

For those who have the P601 like me:
this procedure will remove your SIM card capabilities. basically you're turning your P601 into a P600. OP, please mention it. It would be great if we could get the kernel from P601 Korea firmware.

this procedure will remove your SIM card capabilities. basically you're turning your P601 into a P600. OP, please mention it. It would be great if we could get the kernel from P601 Korea firmware.

Done.
Btw I have also noticed there is still some very minor shaking sometimes, so samsung if you're reading this, take note. Anyway if you don't look for it you probably won't notice and what's more important for me the long hold bug is fixed as well, which made racing games basically unplayable.
It's a sufficient workaround for me until 4.4 comes along

As of now we just have the non 3g models,p605 and p600 getting the touchscreen fix .p601 no updates yet , But I was really happy that they paid attention to us . So I am confident the days ahead will be good for the p601 too ..

I hope so. In the meantime I've even gone as far as sacrificing 3G to get the fix, my tablet was REALLY severe bug. Even when scrolling in Twitter or Facebook sometimes it didnt work properly. so far so good with new kernel. very happy, just wish I will get 3G back soon
Question
Will updating my stock tablet with this newer firmware screw with my warranty? I'd like to try it, but I'm still attempting to get Samsung to accept the tablet as a return.

Hi guys, so in another thread (thx to starsky23 and hpblze) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682101) some guys extracted the kernel of the newest Firmware from March 11 (korean firmware) and it seems to fix some or all of the screen shaking/multitouch issues.
Please note I'm just a user and I have no idea why it works, it just does Maybe someone with actual knowledge can have a closer look at it? Anyway it's safe and worked without issues for me.
Since we don't know when Samsung will release new official firmwares here's the fix:
You need:
-Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) wifi only, SM-P600 with Samsung Firmware/Roms Android 4.3 (for 601 users: it will work but it will kill 3G reducing your tablet to Wifi only)
-Root & Root explorer (the kernel will break wifi at first, so you need a way to edit build.prop to fix that)
-Odin
What it fixes:
-No more screen shaking when you hold the screen with your finger
-Touch input when holding the screen won't drop after ~23sec
-It also fixes apps like USB/BT JoyCenter (map touch input to gamepad buttons) which didn't recognize the touchscreen before.
How to:
1. Download the file:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/29704739/SM-P600_Kernel_KXUANC2_Odin.tar
2. boot into download mode (power+volume down) and load up Odin 3.07 (that's what I used) on your PC.
3. Flash the Kernel as PDA like regular firmware.
4. Let the Tablet reboot and notice that it won't connect to Wifi, when you go to settings/device info under kernel it should have the following date "Tue Mar 11"
5. Now open root explorer and browse to system/ and open build.prop with a text editor.
6. Find the line 'ro.securestorage.support=true' and change it to 'ro.securestorage.support=false' (no quotation marks).
7. Save build.prop and reboot the tablet.
8. Wifi should work again and touch issues are fixed.
Have fun

anyway to get this if i have a rooted sm-p600?
Hello.
I have a Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 LTE and rooted it. I saw a thread how to get the Galaxy S5 Settings list view. I downloaded the SecSettings.apk for the Galaxy Note 3. I installed it into system/priv-app and gave it the correct properties. Then I deleted the old SecSystem.apk and odex and rebooted my phone. Just so that you know, I have a handwriting protection for security which was preinstalled from Samsung. After turning it on again everything looked normal. As I am about to sign in with my handwriting My Phone does not log in. If i try to put in the pin, no keyboard pops up to put it in. Only Google speach recognition opens and it loads and loads and loads. I can not use my phone to change anything, because I can not log in. My phone is not turned in to debugging mode and first it says settings stopped and then it says android.phone stopped and then it says systemui.xxxx stopped. For a second i can then see my homescreen. Then it locks again. I have important pictures I dont want to loose. How can I save them before flashing my phone with odin and wiping everything? What can I do(anything)? Can I put a new rom on there without loosing any data or how do the tools work on kies. My phone is locked and i wont be able to unlock it. Reasons are given. I am about to cry. I dont have enough money to buy another one and I dont want to loose my pictures. PLEASE HELP. URGENT
PS: Ask me any question if it helps you to solve my problem

Anyone out there willing to help guide me through the process of getting the retail mode removed form a samsung galaxy s5? Of course Im willing to compensate you for your time if we can get it to work.
Ive got no experience with Rom's and or installing a rom and the basic passwords have not worked on getting the software removed. Any help would be appreciated.
PhoneDoctor1
Which S5 model have you got?
Make a free account on sammobile dot com (Links are not allowed here)
Type your model S5 into the firmware section and download a ROM
Grab ODIN 3.09 or later (Easy to find with a quick google)
Extract the ROM from the zip, should end up with .MD5 file
Install Samsung drivers (Easy to find with a quick google or Installing KIES3 will also install them)
Put phone into download mode (Power off, then hold Vol down & Home & power, release when the warning appears and hit volume up when asked)
Connect phone to PC USB and wait for drivers to complete installing
Load .MD5 ROM into AP or PDA section of ODIN
Make sure only 'F.Reset Time' and 'Auto Reboot' options are selected in ODIN
Hit START on ODIN and wait for it to complete
All being well, your phone should reboot into the ROM, take a while for first boot, especially if you flash a Lollipop ROM (give it 15 mins+)
Some people find it hangs on first boot, and need to boot into recovery mode and factory reset after flashing the ROM
Same results.
*Detection* Thank you so much for your prompt response and help with this. Unfortunately the steps you provided didn't work for me. I was able to Get Odin, download the correct ROM, drivers, and everything. I installed the ROM on the phone (Took 4 minutes) though ODIN and it stated that it succeeded. Phone restarted and retail mode was back on the phone.
Any other options to get it removed?

Some instructions here on how to disable retail mode
http://www.naldotech.com/how-to-disable-exit-galaxy-s5-demo-live-unit-retail-mode/
How to delete, disable and exit Demo Live Unit Retail Mode on the Samsung Galaxy S5
1. The first thing to do is to disable the retail mode of the firmware.
2. Go to the app drawer and open an app called Samsung Retail.
3. Go to Configuration Settings and enter the password 5444 to unlock it.
4. Then uncheck “Disable the factory reset” and enter the following password M729Q16K8546.
5. Turn your Samsung Galaxy S5 off and boot into Recovery.
6. Go to Wipe data & factory reset and press OK.
7. The phone will reset and all the applications will get removed.
8. Flash a stock firmware with ODIN (tutorial).
There must be something different about this retail mode. It looks different than the others shown in previous posts or youtube videos. I can't seem to disable the app and the passwords don't work. Ive seen a few youtube videos on how to remove it and the one I see doesn't look like the one thats on this galaxy s5. Any other workaround to your knowledge?

Not that I know of off hand, I`ll post back here if I find anything, it might be quicker to take it to a phone shop and ask them to disable it for you

Which version S5 have you got?
Just noticed this thread for the G900X to disable Retail Mode
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733083
Ive got the t-mobil version here in the states. I did see that thread before I posted mine but that wont enable me to make calls. It will most likely turn the phone into a wifi capable phone without cell service.
Sorry, I meant which model S5, mine is the G900F
I take it you bought the phone second hand? Unless someone else can help I think taking it in for repair would be the best bet if those tutorials are not working
I would like to know how you got into retail mode!
And, of course, your model. Its in the system informations.
I had a similar issue with a laptop once (purchased the display model).....
The only thing that fixed it was formatting the hard drive and re installing everything from the recovery discs......
I guess the equivalent for Android would be to flash a PIT file (I think this will reformat the memory) then the firmware (both) with odin........
If you DO go this route, be EXTREMELY careful to flash the CORRECT pit file as flashing the wrong pit will irrevocably brick your phone.........
Sent from my rooted kn0x0 stocKK SM-G900F S5
I appreciate the help and responses. From my understanding the retail mode can not be removed. It seems that Samsung specially designed these phones with software that can't just easily be flashed.

I had just about given up on a straightforward fix, and was about to resort to some major firmware manipulation that would have likely led me to all sorts of confusion. It turns out the password was "rethink" as is listed in multiple places across the web. (AT&T SM-G900A Galaxy S 5) It is applied to the Samsung Retail Mode app which has a "burger" icon in top right corner of the screen that must be selected first to lead towards password entry. This is not the "Retail Experience" app, but the other similar one. Once the Retail Mode app is uninstalled, there are intuitive steps leading to uninstalling of the "Retail Experience" one next, with no new passwords.
Hi guys,
I got my Note 4 SM-N910F and installed latest update ROM from sammobile.com, respectively I've upgraded it from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1.
After reboot, I got the following message when restarted:
"This device is locked because of an abnormal factory reset. Sign in to the Samsung account that you have already signed in to on this device to confirm that it belongs to you."
Shortly: Samsung Reactivation Lock Activated
I've tried my Samsung account, on the web it logs in successfully, on my phone it doesn't let me login.
What should I do?
(phone is never locked, bought from Cosmote Romania, now Telekom Romania)
Thanks.
Samsung Reactivation Lock Activated - [ SOLVED ]
Hi guys,
I've succesfully deactivated the Samsung Reactivation Lock on my Samsung Note 4 SM-N910F - Android Lollipop 5.1.1. !!!
I'll tell you in detail how I did it. After 5 hours of data mining and documenting myself, I've gathered all the necessary data to do it.
Statement: On Samsung Note 4 with Lollipop 5.1.1, the Samsung Reactivation Lock cannot be deactivated!
In order to do that you need to downgrade it to KitKat 4.4.4. (thanks to brayhanrd for coming up with this downgrade-first idea in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/reactivation-lock-root-custom-rom-t3097964#post60511431
It can be done following these simple steps:
1) Downgrade the Samsung Note 4 software version from Lollipop 5.1.1 to KitKat 4.4.4 - using the stock 4.4.4 version specifically designed for your phone which can be downloaded from www.sammobile.com.
(Obs: if it was purchased from Verizon then THAT's the version you need to get it. I'm telling you this to avoid a lot of downgrade failures because of mismatch files and Odin writing errors, believe me, I read a lot about it today! )
- Downgrading from Lollipop to KitKat instructions and all the necesarry files to do it (e.g. Odin) can be found here: http://www.androidexplained.com/galaxy-note-4-how-to-downgrade-to-android-4-4-4-kitkat/ (thanks to Doug for documenting this )
If downgrade was successful, it should look like this: http://screencast.com/t/S9ONzxqPvaG
2) A work around to be able to turn off (deactivate) the Samsung Reactivation Lock can be found on this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U23TdbqJehA
- Long story short, the video emphasize what you need to do to get into the phone's Samsung Account, trick the already locked account and re-register yourself with a new (yet existing) Samsung account, which later on, will be seen by Samsung as the phone's default account, thus allowing yourself to register with it. What this guy's doing, basically is using the Text to Speech Samsung update to get logged in to the Samsung Galaxy Apps with this new Samsung account he created (or already had). From there, he gets back to the first phone setup steps and use this Samsung account which will be recognized by Samsung Reactivation Lock as being the default account (because he already signed-in with it into the Samsung Galaxy Apps) and voila, passed the protection.
3) Turn off the Samsung Reactivation Lock: After you tricked the Samsung Lock screen and passed over it reaching the classic, well known home screen, go to -> Settings -> Security -> and find the "Reactivation Lock" option and UNCHECK it! It will ask again for your Samsung account password, insert it and - ONLY THEN - you will have turned off the Samsung Reactivation Lock.
4) Upgrade back to Lollipop 5.1.1: same instructions here, first, upgrade only with stock image made specifically for your Note 4 version, to ba taken from www.sammobile.com or any other respectable place.
If upgrade was successful, it should look like this: http://screencast.com/t/U0BgITnrMmzi
Voila! you have a fully functional Note 4 phone again!
I hope this post will help you spare those 5 hours I used for reseaching these things!

Not possible to downgrade 5.1.1 to 4.4.4
Funny you say you downgraded from 5.1.1 to 4.4.4 because everywhere I've read the consensus is the new bootloader makes this impossible.
Re: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/help/downgrading-5-1-1-t3206848/post62923032
"If you upgraded your boot loader past OB7 (OE1, OF5 or OG5) You can no longer downgrade."
I tried your intructions anyway with the proper stock rom for my SM-N910P with 5.1.1 (OG5) and no dice. Odin failed right away.
Thanks anyway!

Let me help you further because IT IS POSSIBLE. I've done it! Are you sure you read my thread correctly where I've stated that:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You need to download a stock version of 4.4.4. specifically made for your phone version, model and mobile operator.
maybe for the sm-n910f but not the sm-n910p
I greatly appreciated your response, I spent almost the entire day yesterday working on this with no success.
Just so you know, I did in fact download the stock rom made specifically for my sm-910p, here:
http://androidromupdate.com/sprint-galaxy-note-4-sm-n910p-stock-firmware/
I'm on N910PVPU4COG5 now which is Lolipop 5.1.1 now.
I tried downgrading to N910PVPU1ANK2 Kitkat 4.4.4 and no go.
That is definitely the stock firmware for my device.
I did a factory reset & wiped cache first, then tried flashing with odin and after a successful md5 check it failed.
Not sure but maybe because you had the international version the bootloader is different?
But again, I'm sure it didn't work at that seems to be the consensus everywhere else too. that once you go above OB7 there's no going back on the N910P.

I would suggest to not give up just yet.
Verify the following:
a) From the page you gave me http://androidromupdate.com/sprint-galaxy-note-4-sm-n910p-stock-firmware/ - I know it sais there It cannot be done, just ignore that - did you installed the Drivers on your computer before you plugged in your phone?
b) Did you tried both 4.4.4. versions available?
c) Did you tried multiple times to flash it? As it opten happens to crash 1,2,3 time until you get it done right. (in between the flashes, try reconnecting the phone to the computer and restarting it).
Try Try Try Again...
Thanks for your advice. I would like to downgrade and so haven't given up just yet; you gave me hope (even a shot in the dark)!

A: Yes, I have installed the drivers on my computer and successfully flashed with odin before and my com port is detected, everything is working on that end. However, I read today someone said they could only use odin 3.10 to flash without it failing so I will try that too.
b) Did you tried both 4.4.4. versions available?
A: No, I'm going to try the older version of KitKat 4.4.4 next, N910PVPU1ANIE
c) Did you tried multiple times to flash it? As it opten happens to crash 1,2,3 time until you get it done right. (in between the flashes, try reconnecting the phone to the computer and restarting it).
A: OK, I will try this and report back.

Samsung Reactivation Bypass Alternative
Hi all,
This is my first posting and reply to a thread. Hope all is doing well.
After many many many attempts to either bypass or deactivate Knox's reactivation lock.. I was finally successful. I"m sure you can imagine how i was jumping up and down..
Any who, here's how i did it:
What you need:
1- An OTG Cable
2- A USB flash drive
3- Samsung Google bypass
First thing I did was factory reset my Verizon Note 4 from the recovery mode.
If you have another android phone available, that would be useful. Take the OTG cable plus it into the extra android phone and plug in your USB flash drive. It will either pop up or ask you to reformat the drive. You want to make sure that the USB flash drive is compatible with android devices. If you don't have an extra phone, reformat your USB flash drive using CMD (format Fat32.)
After that's completed, plug your flash drive into your laptop/desktop and drag the file you downloaded (Samsung google bypass) to your flash drive.
IF YOU CAN'T BEAT THEM, JOIN THEM!
Power on your android phone, after it turns on, plug your OTG cable into your phone and attach your USB flash drive. Wait a few seconds so your phone can recognize the new hardware. A folder from the flash drive should pop. Now run the Samsung Google Bypass file. This will take you to the settings on the phone. Connect to your WiFi.
Click on the Security tab and check "Unknown Sources" and then click ok.
In the same tab> Click on where is says "Go to website". That will open a browser. If for any reason you don't have that option in that tab, in the settings options, click on "Accounts" and add your gmail account to the phone. Go back to the settings options and click on your Google account. We need to get this to the browser.
After clicking on your account, scroll down to where is says "Smart Lock for passwords", go ahead an open that up.
You will see "Google Account" - Click on it. That should take you to a browser.
(If for any reason with those option don't take you to a browser, search the settings section to find a way. THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY)
Now we are almost done!
Download Aptoide> It will ask you all the prompts to install> after its done, click on open.
Download Knox> it will ask you to upgrade> go ahead and upgrade it> after thats done, open up the knox app and create a new account. This will now save to your phone.
You can unplug the OTG cable and restart your phone. But before doing so, make sure that account is was successfully created.
You will go back to set up wizard. Go ahead and set up your phone. You should not have any problems now.
Hope this works for you as it did for me.
Thanks for reading

Forgot to mention, when you download the Samsung Google bypass, make sure its a APK and if its in a rar file, unzip it.

If you don't have an extra phone, reformat your usb flash drive using cmd (format fat32.)
after that's completed, plug your flash drive into your laptop/desktop and drag the file you downloaded (samsung google bypass) to your flash drive.
If you can't beat them, join them!
power on your android phone, after it turns on, plug your otg cable into your phone and attach your usb flash drive. Wait a few seconds so your phone can recognize the new hardware. A folder from the flash drive should pop. Now run the samsung google bypass file. This will take you to the settings on the phone. Connect to your wifi.
Click on the security tab and check "unknown sources" and then click ok.
In the same tab> click on where is says "go to website". That will open a browser. If for any reason you don't have that option in that tab, in the settings options, click on "accounts" and add your gmail account to the phone. Go back to the settings options and click on your google account. We need to get this to the browser.
After clicking on your account, scroll down to where is says "smart lock for passwords", go ahead an open that up.
You will see "google account" - click on it. That should take you to a browser.
(if for any reason with those option don't take you to a browser, search the settings section to find a way. There is always a way)
now we are almost done!
Download aptoide> it will ask you all the prompts to install> after its done, click on open.
Download knox> it will ask you to upgrade> go ahead and upgrade it> after thats done, open up the knox app and create a new account. This will now save to your phone.
You can unplug the otg cable and restart your phone. But before doing so, make sure that account is was successfully created.
You will go back to set up wizard. Go ahead and set up your phone. You should not have any problems now.
Hope this works for you as it did for me.
Thanks for reading
