Hi all xda-developers members,
My father has a GALAXY J5 (2016) WHICH IS SM-J5108, variant for Hong Kong and China. All of you guys and gals know that newer Samsung smartphones has three things called:
CROM SERVICES, which is allow you or not to install custom ROM
FRP LOCK, which is Factory Reset Protection. After doing a FR, the stupid thing asks you a Google account
KNOX WARRANTY
Recently, I am attempting to use TWRP custom recovery temporarily to install Google Apps provided by Open Google Apps and the recovery, TWRP, I mentioned is basic requirements. When I finished all procedure, I've encountered some problems. First the CROM services is cannot be regain back the locking status. Next FRP Lock possibly cannot be turned on again. Last KNOX Warranty who is general warranty which is voided and now I want to gain back for it.
For now, I want to restore these of defaults. YOU guys and gals what should I do for now??

Download your firmware and flash
You have to download firmware of your phone and flash it via Odin with download mode in your phone
We are in the same problem, have you had a solution ?, because the roms I have found are without googles services

Samsung S8-SM-G950F custom binary blocked by FRP locked, i saw so many theards about this and i read them, and i still don't know what to do, so my question is if i download firmware with "SamFirm" and then use oddin will i get my phone unlocked from that ? As i had custom rom for year and half and today i got that error for the 1st time , also if the "SamFirm" is not good for that can someone give me link for firmware for my phone as updato and all other sites download soo slow at 15 kb/s and i can't use them it will take 20hours to download that (
Similar situation, I broke my S8 screen, so never got it fixed, and was recently without a laptop, so thought id use the S8 thru Dex, it all worked no probs, however, I used to unlock bootloaders to install custom firmware and os's but didnt think id done it on my S8 as it was still under warranty, so upon looking in the developer options, i saw that OEM Unlock was on, so i switched it off, not remembering rooting the phone, now i get same error it bootloops and says custom binary frp lock. Did u ever get yours sorted? I know my google account to login 2 it if i ever get the official rom back working, but trying odin and smartswitch restore im still stuck, just keeps failing, saying frp lock. Cant even get into recovefry mode to factory reset, didnt thiunk i had TWRP installed on it, but i must have. Anyway, if anyone can pls help me pls contact me here or at dcillusionz at proton dot me. Thanks.
PS - I tried downloading from SamFW and using Odin, but FAILED. Hoping u had some luck?
Hi everyone, i’m having an extremely weird issue with my Samsung J5 Prime (SM-G570Y/on5xelte). First of all; sorry for bad english, this post will be a bit long.
So i want to unlock OEM, to install custom recovery and custom ROM (and being able to login with google account from gms (Google Play Service app)).
i activate developer options.
Then go to Settings > Developer Options, but OEM Unlock is missing (i did'nt have the screenshot of the settings), i already try every method to reappear it but nothing worked.
Trying my luck, im rebooting my phone to download mode, on there i didn’t see any text that says OEM Unlock, i tried to flash OrangeFox Recovery using ODIN. And suprisingly it worked, i even double-checked it by actually booting to recovery. i did'nt expect it to work though...
Then i install RadicalQuack Custom ROM, and do some root-level customization.
But as soon as i try to login Google account from Google Play Service (this didnt affect web login or any other login) on Stock/Custom ROM, and reboot the phone... my phone was FRP locked, i was shocked because my configuration isn’t even backed up.
I have to flash stock rom in download mode, get to setup, login google, remove the account, then i can get rid of FRP lock.
And at this point is where everything is confusing.
If i use stock rom without any changes, the "OEM Unlock" option is'nt appearing at all.
But if i use custom ROM (in this case i use RadicalQuack), the "OEM Unlock" option Appears (until i remove "ro.frp.pst" in build.prop)
So i can do anything but CANNOT login using Google Account from Google Play Services or get FRP locked and All data destroyed.
Now my question is, is it safe to enable "Unlock OEM"? Because i dont know if OEM Unlock is currently enabled or not, i dont know how to check if the bootloader is actually locked, i dont want to get locked forever on samsung stock and bloated shtt again.
PS:
Somehow... i can login Google account without getting FRP locked by:
Unlocking OEM (on the custom ROM ofcourse, since it won't be visible on stock ROM anyway...)
and removing "ro.frp.pst" (especially "ro.frp.pst=/dev/block/persistent") on /system/build.prop, /system/vendor/build.prop, /vendor/build.prop
what did you do?
Hiii, what did you do? I need to unlock oem un my j5 prime
Same Problem Happens to me But Now How you use custom rom without getting frp lock please Tell I Have Also J5 prime And Same Happens to me also I need to flash stock rom from which my custom rom get erased
Hello, I am somewhat a beginner to these things but know how to do most things, in short - I work in a retail store and from time to time we have these demo tablets that are no longer required from samsung and are usually just disposed of or sold to colleagues for cheap - Only very rarely.
Anyways i purchased a Retail Demo samsung tab S5E (SM-T720) and it had retail mode installed, i uninstalled with the administrator password which i found on our work forum and then installed the latest firmware downloaded via frija - whenever the device starts UP after a fresh install and after connecting to the internet it will install the retail mode again as it has Knox enrollment service which I believe this is the main cause of why I cannot root
Things i have tried - Patched the stock AP file from the firmware I downloaded with Magisk then flashed it, flashed TWRP recovery - flashed magisk zip via there (Causes a bootloop)
I am able to bypass the knox enrollment with a program i found on SamFW but after bypassing i still cannot manage to root, i can use it as a regular device which isnt too bad but would like to root it as well.
Does anyone have any idea on how I could do this and if so is there any tutorial or method around for it.
managed to fix it, it was due to the fact the device didnt have Ramdisk so i had to boot into recovery each time to activate magisk didnt realise until now. rooted successfully now
