You will need to root your phone first but might trip knox depending on what firmware you're on. You will also need to turn off reactivation lock.

First root your phone using this on odin's AP/PDA slot ( please note that this will make Knox Warranty Void 0x1 ). Then flash CWM.

I dont5 know if this will help you i see that your reactivation lock is ON turn it off under security in settings and try again.

I think it's a driver issue. I had the same thing. Install Kies and let it update the drivers and it should work

Uncheck that

I thought it was another option, it's already disabled

You are flashing it via PDA option in Odin right? (just checking as sometimes it's the easiest of things that catch people)

Locked phone, cant flash it (This device was reset. To Continue sign in with a google

Hi, we bought phone for a staff in our company, but he ended up stealing moneys, and got sacked, We got his phone back, but it was locked.
What I did was factory reset, when u switch off and on holding 3 buttons, it went to enter new details and setup, but it still giving me "This device was reset. To Continue sign in with a google acc that was previously synced on this device." on last step.
I tried to flash it with stock firmvare, but odin fails every time when i press start, may b b cuz usb debug is not on.
Is it any way to unlock it?.
We got no contact with sacked staff
Btw. phone is Samsung Galaxy A8 (asia), but the process should be similar.
Thank You

Actually, its the new security feature in android by google....
So that if your phone is lost, no one can take advantage of it. Your device will require the old password even if a different binary is installed on your device....
All you can do is go to samsung service centre and ask them about this problem...
Hit thanks if you find my post useful...

Hello, i hope to help you.
I had this error when the 1st time I tried to root

You may get better assistance in the 910T forums since the 910T3 is the same as the T but with Int. radio. https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-tmobile. Good luck

Thank you very much for your input. But in my N910T3 seems there is no such "block reactivation" option under my mobile....

My one is N910F. Maybe there are some differences. Maybe you can try to search about this block reactivation on the web for your model.
My issues were with the recovery but I don't remember if I put 1st the root and after the recovery or the opposite

It's called Reactivation Lock. It's under Security.

Yes, it's in security as I wrote in my 1st post.
Yeah. Often the translations aren't' exact word translations but translations of the meaning.

I have a N910T and use to have a N900A. With both phones I had the same error. Only way I could flash firmware was to remove the .md5 from the file. Example: change Samsung_Firmware.tar.md5 to Samsung_Firmware.tar

Galaxy S8 bootloop

Hi,
So I was trying to move to Magisk from Chainfire SU, So I attemped to go back to the stock bootloader, and downloaded the firmware from here. Magisk said my bootloader was modified when trying to install, so I only installed the BL portion, assuming it was the bootloader. I am now softbricked and cannot boot into recovery or system, only into download mode (which is a shame since I have a backup in recovery). Odin fails when trying to flash anything. Any idea how to fix this? I'm currently trying to download the stock firmware from sammobile but it's both taking hours and I'm not even sure it'll flash.
Thanks for the help in advance!
Edit: Both OEM and FAP lock are and were off when flashing
Edit 2: These are the odin logs:

SM-G935A rooting with modified Odin error every flash attempt: RQT_CLOSE !!

Hey all,
I feel like im going insane trying to solve this issue. Everywhere I look now there are guides to root the SM-G935A (ATT S7E). Yet every time i attempt i experience the same issues, with each tutorial, and version of odin, etc...
I have attempted to follow this guide on androidsage - would post link but xda has its rules for new users so see ss below:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and have even found more updated files than the guide has specified by the same dev:
Which crazily enough is literally called S7_Oreo_Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root_V12 - so you'd think a pre-packed folder named for the device and containing all the files needed, would oh you know, work?

S7E is able to connect just fine, but is always erroring out for the YEARS i've tried to root this device (sometimes with different error codes) is always erroring right after boot.img
I have never been able to successfully write a boot.img no matter what method i am trying. What does RQT_CLOSE indidcate? most people seem to get this error after hidden.img but mine is right at boot.img
My device in Odin Mode displays the following:
WARRANTY VOID: 0X0
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
RP SWREV: B10(2,1,1,1,1) K10 S10
SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE
SW REV CHECK FAIL: [boot]Fused 10 > Binary 8
What is going wrong??? Any help/collaberation greatly appreciated.
Used factory USB cable, other usb, multiple usb ports. Am using Prince Cosmys modified odin, also using modified odin contained in s7 .zip folder downloaded from tut. running it as admin. I've tried all the usual troubleshooting.
Thanks!
