Hi, I have been rooted for like a month, i'm currently on Phoenix ROM, and for some stupid reason I un ticked OEM-Unlock in my developer options. Last night I left my phone on charge under my pillow, and it was boiling so I switched it off. This morning when I turned it on I got the message Custom Binary Blocked by FRP Lock. I have bank insurance but that's last resort and I have no idea if they will cover it.

Happened to me a few weeks ago when I got my S7 Edge, rooted and started experimenting... I unticked OEM unlock and basically locked me out of Android with the exact same "Custom Binary Blocked by FRP Lock" warning.
In the end, I just restored the stock firmware/ROM using Odin.
Don't worry, yout phone is fine. But yeah, the sh*tty part: You'll have to start from scratch.

That's fine, I don't mind starting again. Will it let me flash firmware though, since the boot loader is locked?
(I started the firmware download this morning, should be done when I get home)
Thanks for the reply as well mate!

Can someone please advise what causes this FRP lock?
Heres what happened.
I have a S6 Edge+
I bought a new S6 Edge+ dual sim
I took the sim out of my old phone and setup the new phone
After setting it all up I switched off my old phone
When I switched it back on, it came up with this error and turns itself off straight away
On the old phone I NEVER rooted or flashed any roms (custom or official)
Would enabling OEM unlock avoid this?
The phone is with Samsung now and their repairers want to charge me half the cost of the phone to replace the main PBA because they say the warranty is void!
Don't do it its a rip off I've just restored my Galaxy S6 edge plus after trying to root it with little success as the root programs aren't very stable at this point. Any ways my phone got bricked in "Custom Binary block by FRIDAY Lock" mode straight out of the box and I did some research and discovered that flashing the Original firmware via Odin restored it to perfect working order with the exception of Knox switch ed on and the Samsung pay app rendered non functional. You can download the firmware at Sammobile.com for free or faster download pay there cheapest subscription, which is what I did.
I have escalated it to the Samsung managers to try and get the fee waived.
If they wont then Ill just take the phone back and see if I can flash the right rom.
What I dont understand is why it locked in the first place.....I have never flashed any custom roms or rooted that phone.

What did you do to cause this though? Did you root or flash custom rom?
I also had this issue. I rooted my device successfully but afterwards I turned off oem unlock and rebooted my phone. This resulted in the frp lock issue. Flashing the stock firmware via odin got rid of it.

<Bought Metro PCS Samsung Galaxy On5 from store. My first time trying to root a phone I need binary update. Flashed Stock Rom sucsuccessfully and still left with same issue. After watching video to remove FRP lock, realized the FRP Lock had been off since I bought it brand new from Metro. As not really a rookie anymore I'm stumped, please help?>
Turn on developer options and tick OEM unlock and USB Debugging on. See if that helps your situation. I just rooted this phone today with no issues whatsoever.

$_I actually just kind of back to my basics and got the stock rom in, Odin for my Twrp and then flash SU zip with new recovery. My first root successful? my inexperiene got me in a soft brick later but learned enough past 2 months on here do get out of that#
So, recently I decided to root my Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime (sm-g530r4). I used ODIN and everything went just fine. I successfully rooted it and I was happy. I went to the Play Store and signed in with Google and downloaded some apps. After that, I turned the phone off and when I went to turn it back on, it doesn't boot. It says "Custom Binary Blocked by FRP". I tried to flash CF-Auto-Root again, but I won't let me. What do I need to do to fix this?

You must remove your google account to remove the FRP Lock.

OK, but how do I do that if I can't boot the phone? Whenever I turn it on, it shows the "Custom Binary Blocked by FRP" screen and shuts off when I press a button.

Reflash stock Boot & recovery images. You will lose root but you'll be able to boot.

Thanks! I reflashed with the stock rom and go it to boot. I rooted it again, but this time I made sure to OEM UNLOCK. I forgot to do that the first time, so when I logged into my Google account, it FRP locked me out.

Lucky you, when I enable oem unlock my FRP is still locked x)
Hi guys
Today I bought an S8 from a friend and because they didn't clean the phone I decided to do a factory reset from the recovery like I used to do on my S6 all the time. This time I learnt about FRP.
Now I can't log into the device because the setup wizard says I have to log in with the previous google account first, and my friend doesn't have those details (older person).
So yeah, I'm now stuck. I have the stock Pie ROM on there and the the stock recovery. Flashing anything other than the stock ROM through odin doesn't work due to the FRP.
In download mode it says:
KG State: Prenormal
FRP Lock: On
OEM Lock: On
Can anyone help me to make this brick a phone again?
Thank you

You're out of luck then. Sometimes we take a loss buying second hand phones. Guess you'll be more careful next time. Strange that the person you bought the phone from doesn't remember their email login. How do this person even use the services offered by Google one might wonder. Just ask for your money back, not your fault that your friend suffer from dementia :cyclops:
This is a grey matter on this site. It has been asked time and time again. The best you will get on xda is either use the search bar it the top of the screen or Google can be your friend. The answer is most definitely out there. and BTW the s6 had frp on it too. This isn't new any more. I can understand back way when frp came out on lollipop some didn't know. But that's been several years now
Tab 5se Stock firmware
So I bought a 3rd 5se from a third party, all I checked for was for FRP lock, well it wasn't locked, but when I got it home and rebooted, it says is has a unlocked bootloader. So I hard factory reset it and now it states that only stock firmware can be installed in boot and won't go any further.
So I'm guessing I need to use ODIN to flash a factory ROM but I'm not sure which one as I can't seem to find a USA one on Sammoble, I do see a Canada one though.
Which version of ODIN should I use (WIN 10)
Which ROM, I'm in the USA, WIFI ONLY SM-T720, country code ?
Any other tips, as I haven't flashed anything in almost a decade probably.
Need to get this back to all stock, help
You want the XAR country code version which is the US rom. For Odin, use the newest version for our tablet. Good luck.

I use Frija instead of Sammobile to get the latest stock. Just use SM-T720 as the model and XAR as the CSC. If you search for how to unlock the bootloader, you can use the same proceedure to relock it. It should perform a factory reset as part of the process and you might not need to reflash a ROM.
Not sure..
Since the device won't turn off, restart nor go into download mode
Aqua blue sorta cyan screen. Top in red (like a terminal response) says," Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed (vbmeta)"
Then on main screen in center;
Security Error: This phone has been flashed with unauthorized software & is locked. Call your mobile operator for additional support

The only time a ran into a situation where I couldn't turn off that tablet, I just had to put it aside for a day or so till the battery ran down. Then use the method of holding both vol up and down, and NOT power, and then plugging in the cable from the PC. Must be from PC and not charger.

I ran into this recently when I went back to stock to get the fingerprint for Magisk Module and then went back to Lineage. You just need to Odin the factory firmware. The tablet will turn off, I think the key combination to force it off is power and volume down? Its been a few weeks, but I was able to get back into download mode. I found other threads for samsung phones that had this same issue and basically used them as rough guides.
As mentioned you just need to use XAR ROMs, your box should say XAR. I believe both Canada and Cellular South ROMs will come up as XAR roms IIRC?
Bruh. I had the same issue and you will not be able to flash your way around and FRP lock. I found a guy on eBay to remove the FRP lock and NOT through flashing. For $10 is was done in 10 minutes. I get if you want to figure it out. I'm a flasher and love to figure this **** out too but with a recent update Samsung blocks this. Trust me. Spend $10 and it's done. Also many people say they can do this on eBay. I only recommend this guy: https://www.ebay.com/itm/273424666857. Just select a new auction of his and message him.

He said he checked to make sure this was not the FRP lock. Assuming this is the same message I got which says only official binaries can be flashed, please take this to a service center and it there maybe a cost involved (obviously I'm paraphrasing), you can fix it with Odin. I was on the latest firmware as well, as I updated fully to get the fingerprint for the MagiskHide module. This sounds like a different issue, to me.
I mean if that works it's $10 well spent I guess.
Oh my apologies as I misread his post. I just saw "FRP" and chimed in. Hope he gets it sorted out.

Almost !
Well, I finally reflashed the device with factory stuff, it's working fine now, no locks, except now it tells me the bootloader is unlocked on boot. I flashed it with Odin, no options, just loaded the 4 files and done.
How do I get this to STOCK, out of the box status. Steps ?
