OEM is checked, but FRP is still on - Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My 531F was soft bricked (custom binary blocked by frp ) , so i recovered it with kies to factory defaults. But now i want to root it again . So i checked OEM , but FRP is still on . What should i do tnx in advance .

Same issue
I have the same issue with my 531f. While having checked the box for unlocking for OEM, after rooting it says that custom binary is blocked by FRP. I started a new thread on this today, and am hoping for some answers. I also provided some more information as to how I rooted the device and so on... Hopefully we'll get an answer.

Remove Google account, then FRP is off.

Having tried this many times I can tell you that you can't. I started a neew thread on this and am hoping for an answer because it's frustrating as hell to not get into TWRP again and again because of the message coming up that 'Custom Binary is blocked by FRP'
Remove Google account before booting into recovery. Then the FRP lock is gone. After you made changes in Recovery boot normal and add Google account. This is the only way. (Of course check the box for unlock for OEM under development settings)

FRP lock

So, while i was screwing around with the Nougat Revolution rom I ended up softbricking my phone. I unbricked it by downgrading to Marshmallow. Now when i go into the bootloader menu it shows up FRP lock. I deleted any google account present on my phone, but this didn't fix it. Anyone has an idea to get rid of the FRP lock? Because whilst this is activated I am able to flash anything.
Hi!
FRP is Factory Reset Protection.
This is 16-digit password.The password is same as the code for unlock the bootloader,who can get from Huawei official page.
Update: after repeatingly resetting my phone, adding and deleting the google account it eventually unlocked inside the bootloader. I don't know why this happened, but if anyone comes across this issue sometime, try what I did.

Custom binary (recovery) blocked by FRP lock

Hi. My cousin asked me to root his SM-G531F and flash custom ROM to it. So, I come to him and tired to flash TWRP, just like I did on my SM-G350. But there's a problem - flashing fails, and there's a message "Custom image (recovery) blocked by FRP lock" or something like that. We rebooted (by taking battery of) phone and checked "OEM unlock" in dev settings. Tired to flash again - same message. IDK what more can we do. I don't want to brick his phone.
Also, when I searched for "FRP lock" there were no problem like ours, but lots of devices in bootloop with this message AFTER sucessful flash of custom ROM... That make me think about this all the day. I NEVER eccountered problem like that, but I never had so new phone, only old and easy-flashable ones. Is FRP lock dangerous? Do I need to do something to not brick his phone?
I found two types of slimiar looking locks - FAP lock and FRP one. Mine is rather FRP, I think I can read. What they really are and how they differ?

FRP: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/frp/
FRP Just locks your phone if you alter the boot or recovery image and you had a google account registered. To unlock it you have to wipe data (factory reset) and reflash stock boot.img and recovery.img before using it again. If your cousin wants to flash my ROM (lineageos-13.0) he'd better not, its not stable and he will encouter random reboots and codecs bugs. The best thing to do is to remove FRP from his phone and flash Magisk (a root manager like SuperSU) and debloat it.
For more information, find the Grandprimevelte group on Telegram.
I think I'm having the exact same problem as OP, the thing is that when you flash twrp and the magisk on the phone with FRP disabled (no google account) it works just fine, but if you choose to add a google account to the device later you get a bootloop. If you try flashing with a google account logged in on the phone it doesn't let you (same as OP).
Is there any way to add a google account on the device after flashing twrp and magisk without enabling FRP lock? Thank you

Yes, you must install a boot.img without frp. Then you will be able to use a custom boot/recovery and root your phone without problem.

How to remove FRP Lock Android 8.0

Hi,
I've bought a screen broken G935F and fixed the screen. Now, I want to make a factory reset and start using the phone. But when I try to flash TWRP via Odin, it says "custom binary blocked by frp lock". What should I do to use that phone? I've reached the guy I've purchased the phone but he doesn't remember the pattern.
Regards.

This happens when oem unlock is turned off in developer options. You need to enable it for flashing any custom binary.
Try flashing matching binary stock rom in odin and then enabling oem unlock.
If it asks last google account after flashing stock rom, then just enter your google account details. And if you don't have them, well there are methods on youtube to bypass google account frp lock. I guess some of them should still work.
And if your phone's binary version is 6 or lower you can try using combination rom with matching binary too. Good luck

google account locked

Is it poss to get passed Google Verify lock as I've got a g950f from my late mothers but don't know any of deets for log ins. Can't access setting to allow ADB either
factory reset .... but you'll lose all data .....
Factory reset doesn't remove the frp lock
Okay, we removed a frp-lock once by using Odin. The best you can do is search for the right stock Rom and flash this with Odin, but you need to access download-mode on your phone which must be possible also with a phone with frp-lock, because it is there where the frp-lock is shown. For as far as I know, also recovery-mode should normally still be available.
