hello ,
i rooted my Phone and did a very stupid thing and in settings i turned of oem unlock and usb debugging off again. so now my Phone wont start cause of the message "custom binary(recovery) blocked by frp lock.
i tried something trough odin for the recovery but it failed so now the Phone wont turn off and when i try to go to recovery mode it says "an error has occurred while updating the device software .use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch pc software"
i tried that but the Phone is not compatible with smart switch and with samsung kies 3.
what can i do to unbrick my Phone , is it possible to fix my Phone after this?
regards, marco

Its because you didnt explored smart switch properly ..
I have been there with my phone samsung galaxy j5 ... it happened just like yours ... i rooted my phone, forgot to check oem unlock and got the "custom binary blocked by frp lock" .. then i went to odin and flashed my firmware .. and it turns out .. the firmware i flashed is not the firmware of my phone .. so i got the message "an error occured while updating blah blah please go to smart switch blah blah blah " but i fixed it so theres solution for that ... smart switch
You said smart switch cant read your device?? Its because its bricked theres no way it can be read ..
So all you have to do:
1. Open smart switch
2. Go to "more"
3. Then go to "emergency software recovery and initialization"
5. Then go to "device initialization"
6.Put your model number and then your S/N or serial number .. it is found in the back of your edge plus.. it starts with letter R..
7.. after that .. you wait .. it will download the files for your phone...
That way you wont be flashing ramdom firmwares .. your phones firmware will be flashed since smart switch used the serial number.. i hope this helps..
so i got my hands on a s6 edge plus live demo unit. so i decided to root it but that failed, then i installed a custom rom and it worked. so i tried to install xposed so i booted my phone into recovery mode but i had an error message that said about the frp lock, but now when i boot my phone it keeps booting to recovery mods and i can't boot it normally. so i searched the internet and found nothing, so i tried myself but i got my phone in an akward situation now... when i boot it up i immedtiatly get a screen saying "an error has occurred while updating the device software. use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch pc software". i tried that but it said my device wasn't compatible and even with Kies and Kies 3 i had the same message. and when flash anything with odin even the stock files it says it failed and my phone says that frp lock thingy again... so can anyone help me please because i really want that phone to keep...
J5 prime (sm-g570f) is stucked on "an error while updating..conect smart switch.."
Hi,
i recently bought a J5 PRIME and i put a passcode to it and i can't remember it now,but i can access the google account that i used,so here's what i did,
i did a bit of searching online and played around with the recovery tool in the phone,and now im getting this error
"an error has occurred while updating the device software.use the emergency recovery function......smart witch pc software."
so i tried to install the stock firmware with smart switch but im getting a message that says,
"SM-G570F Does not support initializing please contact our service provider'
now the only thing i can do is to getting to the download mode,thats the only thing i can do
i was okay at that time because im also doing Software engineering and i know a bit about phoenes, soi tried to put the stock firmware through odin,but it doesn't work,it fails at a certain point,and then i checked my phone and i saw that ''blocked by frp''
then i did a bit of searching and i got to know about oem,and what frp is, so basically i didnt enabled oem when i had access to my phone.
what should i do,im freaking out here
Call for help - A3 2016 A310F, stuck at "An error has occured... Use Smart Switch"
Dear community members, dearly ask for you help / suggestions.
I did hard reset on my A3 (2016), and got stuck with FRP protection. Wanted to bypass this by flashing with stock firmware. I used ODIN and flashed stock Nougat, but flashing failed at the very end. Now i cannot get to Download mode window, and got stuck with "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use emergency recovery.... Smart Switch PC sofware". I tried both Samsung Smart Switch and Kies, they don't recognize my phone so i cannot do emergency recovery. I'm stuck with this currently.
Are there any suggestions what i could do? Is there a way to reanimate my phone?
Thanks in advance!

same here any idea?
Was flashing original firmware on to Samsung Galaxy Tab E SM-T377AZKAATT using Odin3 to bypass FRP lock, it said that flashing failed. I restarted device. Now I have an error page saying; "An error has occured while updating the software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software." Didn't back up device or have Smart Switch installed on PC before flash. Smart Switch says that device isn't compatible with Smart Switch. What can I do? Please help.

Well I flashed the original recover file with Odin3 and repaired the error screen. Now my device boots normally to the device setup. However now it is still Google FRP Locked. Can anyone provide me with how to bypass this. The device is running on Android 6.0.1 factory firmware. I have tried all my frp lock software I have found for my Windows 7 PC. Please help.
