I've been searching a lot, I'm trying to unlock the bootloader of my SAMSUNG GALAXY S7 EDGE (GM-G935F)
When i try to install TWRP with Odin, the device blocks the installation, have you found a way for unlock the bootloader??
Did you enabled first oem unlock from developer options?

No, my brother found that mobile and it was blocked from google, so i couldn't go into settings and put the developer mode ON.
I've tried with odin and this... and the device blocked automatticly the installation of TWRP

"OEM Unlocking". Check the box. This SHOULD disable the FRP lock as well. ??
SO before i was gonna flash custom recovery i turned on OEM Unlocking and usb debugging. I have done this many times before.
But now i get the Custom binary FRP lock. This happened right after i turned OEM unlocking on and restarted I didn't do anything els. Isnt this how you are suppose to turn the FRP lock off...
Because it has always worked before my phone isa J500FN
Now i have to recover the phone kies doesnt support my modell.. Been like this for a half year. So need to use Odin and flash default firmware i'm doing 5.1.1 I believe the marshmallow os did this. Or I have setup some protection against it so I have to turn it off. Iv read that samsung app have a way to turn off FRP and your google account got it too. So have to check into that later if this flash will complete fine I hope.

Just because it says it doesn't support, it doesn't mean it can't download the firmware. Use the upgrade option and put in your model number and serial and it will download the the correct firmware.
I have just rooted my J3 2016 SM-J320F and I heard that if I disable OEM unlock from developer options my phone will get bricked.
The question is: If I reset to factory settings then my developer options will disappear and OEM unlock will be disabled will my phone get bricked?

No. Even if the developer options disappear, OEM unlock will still be enabled.
I seen the recommendation is to turn USB debugging and OEM lock off under developer options to play fortnite on our device with magisk. What I was wondering is with my bootloader unlocked, which it is, I can uncheck OEM lock, but would it be okay after a reboot? I just didn't want to uncheck it, and then get stuck or not be able to boot. I was curious if someone might have tried already. Thx
By the way for anyone wanting to know, I turned OEM unlock off w/ a unlocked bootloader & device successfully booted up with switch still in off position.
Have just bought a Galaxy Tab S5e SM-T725 and my intention was to flash TWRP and Lineage 18.1 for microG. Actually the device runs Android 11 stock. Think maybe the problem starts that in Developer Options I cannot even find "OEM unlocking" option, so cannot switch the option and allow the unlocking. When I go in Download mode there's no way to start unlocking the bootlader. Any thoughts? Thanks to anyone in advance.
Found the sol, I post it for helping who get stucked like me. The problem is that lately in many Samsung deviced The "OEM unlocking" appears in Developer Options menu only at least 7 days after you activated or reset the device, but HERE there's a guide on how to force that time so to solve instantanealy.
I am trying to figure out how I can enable the OEM Unlock option in a SM-T387W? It's a Fido (Canadian carrier) Galaxy tab A 8.0 running Android 10. Enabling dev options doesn't let me see the OEM Unlock switch, even after doing the date trick and rebooting. Any help would be appreciated.
