I have had this tablet for about a year now. A few days ago i decided to factory rest. Now I can't finish setting up because it's asking for a samsung account. Says it's locked due to abnormal factory reset. I signed in using my gmail account, but I don't remember ever setting up a samsung account on the tablet. I have tried various tutorials online, so far no luck. Still stuck and can't use it. I tried calling att and they said contact samsung. Which I did, and the only option they give me is to send in fir repair, at my expense. I'm not willing to do that on a tablet that I barely use, which is still under contract. Just looking for options here. I'm stuck paying the monthly fee for another 9 months on this tablet, that I can't use. Thanx in advance.

I just grabbed a note 3 and its on the latest software MJE( think thats right)..I tried rooting using the veg las vega thin, and it failed and I had to odin the stock files back to get phone working again. So my question is are there any root methods that are working with the MJE? Thank you in advance for all your help

Make sure tho when you do it to grant superuser rights or it will keep failing My screen didnt light up or I missed it and it took me awhile to notice

You got usb debugging on ?
Is your computer recognizing your phone ? I would turn on allow unknown apps too
Make sure you have all drivers also I would restart phone while plugged in on computer and see if it installs recovery bootloader drivers also

Hey there, a friend of mine has given his sgs3 to the repair center, and after receiving it, he is on 4.1.2 and when he tries to update, gets a message like "you have modified sofrware". How can this be solved?
P.s. Sorry for posting here, but i tried to post in q&a and got a message saying "forum closed".

Sounds like it's rooted. Did your friend send it in that way?

No, he never rooted his phone or flashed custom fw. He was always on stock.
Update: i checked it now and its rooted, but i can confirm that he didn't root it himself. Will unrooting and factory reset fix the update issue?

I haven't updated once, yet. I'm still holding out for root.
Went to the Samsung booth at Best Buy & the Samsung rep said that even with his software, he cant downgrade firmware for me.

All,
I have tried the fixes and the BS Free ROM for my GS7 Edge while rooted and nothing seems to fix the issue with receiving texts while the screen is off. Making a call to kickstart the sms service is the only way that works. Does anyone know of a more tried and true method to fix this problem? Thanks in advance.

Would returning to stock firmware lose my root status?

I have a 2015 16GB version that's running stock rooted ROM. I've never had issue with OTA upgrades in the past but 6.2 doesn't install.
It goes through the process but doesn't seem to upgrade because it keeps prompting me to upgrade.
I believe that the issue is because of root. So I would like to know if there is an easier way of unrooting and getting OTA instead of going completely back to stock?
