I bought an S7 Edge of a friend recently, the phone had this "custom blocker" app installed which prevents me from easing the data, etc. It was in retail mode which i managed to deactivate and have now managed to factory reset it but its asking for the previous gmail (which is not me) and the previous owner gave me his gmail and it didn't work. So i tried the download mode method only to find i cant enter download mode! but i can enter recovery mode. I also can not enter bootloader (locked). I'm running out of options, if anyone has had this problem can they share some advice?

The problem is "FRP"
Factory Reset Protection
maybe the gmail is related to wherever he got it from if he has not reset it before.
i dont have an answer for you other than to begin your search on - how to bypass FRP lock
i have seen many threads around on xda of users having the same issue of FRP lock so be sure to search XDA as well as google..
Hope you get it sorted

Good luck
that worked right upto the last step where it told me to go to google account manager and click on "email and password", instead of saying email and password, it said "Error". When i clicked on "try" there was a communication problem with google. I looked online and it said to download the google play services (which i did) but to no avail? /:

First off, this started with a possible error which I will describe incase anyone else encounters this problem with the SM-G9006v by China Unicom
I added my VPN and of course set up a PIN number. I didn't actually use the VPN for a few days, but when I went back to check on it the VPN had disappeared. I attempted to add a new VPN and it appeared in the box area for about a second and then also disappeared. I think it was at this point that I saw my first "Settings has encountered an error" message. The settings window sort of flashed and reloaded. I then went to the Lock Screen area and attempted to remove the PIN number, but was unsuccessful as the other less secure options were greyed out. At this point I pressed setup Password. The password screen came up and I started to enter my information when I received another Settings Error.
So, I am currently faced with a PIN lock screen that does not respond to my original PIN. My phone did not have USB Debugging Set and Reboot Lock is enabled, so I cannot enter recovery to factory reset my phone.
Solved By: Flashing a new Recovery via Odin, Please Note: You might need to use VolUp+Home+Power Button rather than VolDown+Home+Power Button

I got locked out on my Note 3 from a kernel/rom issue. Only way I could fix was flash stock Via Odin.. Seems like that's the method you'll have to take also.
I was able to solve my problem by flashing CWM via Odin. I thought it hadn't worked because I was using VolDown+Home+Power.
It worked when I used: VolUp+Home+Power

Could you link what CWM you used? I can't get my phone to recognize by Odin... or perhaps link how you did it. I would like to drop a custom rom or at least have a recovery that can flash gapps (default recovery fails to flash them for me)

It worked for me, but tripped Knox.
One extra step, not sure if it was necessary, but I installed 豌豆荚 pinyin: wandoujia on my computer, then hooked my phone in. I'm not entirely sure, but I think it helped install the drivers, which might be the only problem.
As far as getting gapps, I'm still working on that too. I put in a few apks to my phone, but gmail and play store are still broken....

Much appreciated! I don't speak Chinese and those around me that do aren't technically inclined. I don't even need a custom ROM if i can get gapps working.
I used a site to download apk's off google play store (website version) and it worked ok. Doesn't work for paid apps, but at least i was able to get google's translate / etc installed. Google translate wouldn't let me load off-line languages though sadly.
When I attempt Odin to flash a recovery or any other file, it won't reboot the phone, then in the stock recovery, odin doesn't see the phone, been a touch of a roadblock. I'll be sure to look into those links.

You need to go into developer settings and enable OEM UNLOCK.

I would ensure you are using the correct account. My guess is its not.
The Google account will be associated with your device. If it's the correct account then you should be fine.
If you've installed the wrong firmware then Google may see your device as different.
I would sign into your account you think was used on the device via the web then go to Device activity & notifications and ensure your device is listed.
https://accounts.google.com/login
I can see two Devices
1.Samsung Galaxy Tab A6
2.Samsung Galaxy Tab A 7.0 LTE
Mine is Galaxy Tab A6, SM-T285, Recovery email address is correct.
But when i try to login that account on my phone, google says "Sign in with a google account that was previously synced on this device"

FRP is bound to the MAC Address of your device... I doubt you can bypass it on Marshmallow as they fixed all the possible bypass methods, but give it a try... this worked under Lollipop

On the other hand: the seller should give you the Password - except it's a stolen device. eBay is famous for... Just a hint...
I bought from "blinq". Not individual seller. Maybe not their fault?
It seems the above method doesn't work . I can't even go further than the google keyboard setting step. After clicking "about google keybaord" nothing comes up...
I succeeded to go to "settings" by similar way at last.
But I can't turn on developer mode by repeat clicking the "build numbers "
I still tried factory reset the machine inside settings. But still ask me for the previous login info after the first boot up.
Any hints??
I saw there is system update that can be downloaded. Shall I try???

This is an Android thing. It's designed to lock a unit after it's been reset from bootloader menu if a previous user hasn't signed out. Theft deterrent. I never got around the FRP, but the previous owner gave me the credentials I needed to continue setup, so my situation is solved.

I have been trying to reboot a used phone I have bought. The Samsung Galaxy J3 (6). Yes, there is a 6 after the J3 inside of a little circle. Apparently this is the closest thing that xda has to it on the forums. I have tried everything I could find on the internet to get around this google verify problem from the previous user. I have used the emergency caller to basically access everything on the phone. I have attempted to change the google account through settings, I have installed new apps to access other areas, I have have tried to downgrade Google Account Manager to disable the "error" problem in the quick shortcut app. This last method didn't work due to the phone not letting me be able to downgrade. I have installed the rootjunkie's samsung unlocker apk and got to settings. I have factory reset from here twice, with and without a password. Both did not do a thing for me. I am out of ideas. can anybody help me out here?

The issue is FRP. Someone has factory reset from recovery instead of settings.
If you can get into settings as you say then set up another Google account then switch to that account.
Restart and log into that account.
Which firmware build is the device running?

My version is 6.01 I believe. But I cannot downgrade to the 6.01 Google account manager with new security stuff.
Your device is nearly identical to J320A & J320AZ.
I am unsure if you need to enable "oem unlock" from Dev options to flash the kernel.
But if Odin let's you this method should get you going.
Hi Guys,
I have a couple T580 tablets for my kids, and we had just gotten a new one for Christmas that I set up. I THOUGHT I had done everything correctly, but the new tablet is giving me the FRP Lock suddenly.
Any idea how that could happen? Is there any way to recover the tablet or do I have to do a original rom flash?
Thanks

Somethings not right. You don't "suddenly get an FRP lock". An FRP lock occurs only after you "factory reset" the tablet and don't know the google account login. And that is only if you hadn't enabled "OEM" in "Developer options". What makes you think it is the "FRP lock"? And if it is locked, flashing a ROM with Odin won't help. You'll still need the google account info to access the tablet.

Again, unless something has changed, which I doubt, that is not the way the FRP lock works. First of all, you said nothing about having a custom ROM installed. But even if you did, the FRP lock would NOT prevent the tablet from booting. It would merely ask for your google account info when it did boot. Have you tried booting into recovery and performing a factory reset?
edit: Let me explain what FRP means. In early versions of Android, if your phone/tablet were lost or stolen, anyone could bypass your "screen lock" simply by booting into recovery mode and perfoming a Factory Reset. So Google came up with the Factory Reset Prevention lock. So if someone tried to use the Factory Reset, the lock would demand the google account login and password to access the tablet. So if you wanted to sell your tablet, you either had to enable "Developer options" and then use that to "Enable OEM", prior to reseting the tablet or put in a google account whose info you could pass to the buyer, remove your real account, and then reset.
In any case, the tablet did NOT show the message you are getting. I've bought several T580s on eBay that WERE locked, and none of them gave that message. A locked tablet would still let you install stock ROMs with Odin, but the tablet would still ask for the google account info. But the way around that can be found in this forum.

When I turn on the power, the screen comes on, and then says "Custom Binary blocked by FRP Lock" then the screen turns off. I have not tried a factory reset because I was hoping to find a solution without losing everything before I did something that could not be undone.
The only thing left is, I know samsung will (if detected) attempt to remove software. I wonder if it somehow tried to reset automatically and in so doing caused this.
A factory reset does not help in your case.
First option is: contact your person, who sell the phone. Because he must unlock this one in his Google settings.
The question is: how many times a wrong oe no account was insert, that the device doesn't start up till the possibility to insert the correct account.

You don't lose everything with a Factory Reset and what you do lose should be easily recovered from your google account backup. And nothing else could be done that wouldn't also cause a reset.

No one sold me this phone, I bought it new. There is no unlock option. The phone doesnt event start booting, the screen turns on says the FRP lock, then turns off.
Ab FRP Lock said, that the phone is looked via a Google account.
In a normal case, you can only unlock the device, if you insert the correct Account with password.
I don't know.. maybe you have insert 3 time wrong credentials... why the device give your not the possibility to unlock the device.
Try an complete wipe / factory reset out of the recovery menu, so that the OS can start.
The lock isn't away, but maybe you have the possibility to insert the correct data.
In Download Mode here is what I see:

Alright I just flashed the latest rom and that fixed it.
I now know a little bit about what is going on. When I got the tablet, I set it up for me. Then I discovered googles "family link" so I set it up again for my daughter.
Child accounts have FRP protection. I dont know what triggered it, but somehow it activated recently when it discovered magisk which I had installed some time back.
Now I am super irritated and over Family Link...
