"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'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??

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

Hello, may I ask about the A20e (SM-A202F) here in this A20 forum?
My A20e does not show an option for unlocking the bootloader (well, I thought the "OEM unlocking" would be the term to search for as I know it from my S7).
I started the A20e the first time after unboxing, with no SIM card and no WiFi connected. The date (never updated) was a day in March 2019.
I then even set the date back by 4 weeks and rebooted the phone (as was suggested for the A20, if I remember correctly, if problems with a non-existing or greyed-out OEM unlocking option appear).
Still, no OEM unlocking option is available in the developer options (not even greyed out).
Can other A20e (SM-A202F) users please confirm this? Or do you have that option?
Maybe it's not needed on the A20e, but who knows?

It also happened with me. I will try to explain what I did to bypass this waiting. First, you got to format everything, cache and data, then reboot your phone and do all of that configuration, but don't turn your wi-fi ON or connect to the internet, go to the date & time settings, set the date to 7 (or more) days back from today and then go to the system updates and try to update your phone (now connected to the internet). Whatever happens now doesn't matter, the important thing is to make sure that your phone got a registry that you tried to update the system 7 days ago. You may now reboot your phone, after rebooting set the date for the current day and turn on developer options, you will see the bootloader option.
Thank you!
Coming back to this (moved) thread after a while, I wonder if unlocking the bootloader will trip Knox. So, will it?
Are there any ways to root the Samsung A20e without tripping Knox?

I'm sorry but Samsung Knox was made to be tripped. If you touch your recovery partition the Knox will be broken.
Do only changes of the recovery trip Knox?
Is rooting the A20e possible without tripping Knox? (I guess, no)
re-unlock A20e (europa)
Hi, I have problem with re-unlocking bootloader on Galaxy A20e (SM-A202F) after accidental locking in download mode.
- the OEM unlocking option is not displayed in the developer options (it is not possible even after moving the date back 7+ days and clicking on updates and restart mobile)
- After turn on, hold vol- and vol+ and plug in USB cable attached to pc I don't have the option to choose the unlock bootloader by long pressing vol +, only Volume up: Continue and Volume down: Cancel (restart phone)
How to re-unlock bootloader on this mobile? Now I can flashing only original Samsung firmware via Odin, but I need root...
Thanks for tips

The procedure does not work. I also performed a wipe cache and a wipe data / factory reset. Then I connected wifi and waited 10 days. Nevertheless, the OEM unlock option is not available in the debug options, and the "Volume long press Device unlock mode" option is not available after entering the download mode. Can anyone advise?

Hi. Does it say 'KG state: prenormal' on the top left corner when you go into Download mode?
What firmware did you try it with?
Also you shouldn't have to wait 10 days after connecting to a wifi hotspot for it to validate. On my device the validation process is done within a minute.

Hi, KG state: prenormal, FRP lock: OFF, OEM Lock: ON(U1), firmware is original XEZ-A202FXXU3ASL4-20200120200351 (Android 9). The last procedure, waiting 10 days, was the last of many I tried.

Hi, I tried to return the date in 7, 14, 30 days and a few months, but without success. I have Samsun Galaxy A20e SM-A202F
Tried to clicking through threads and used search... but seems I am blind.
I have SM-A202F CSC ROM and dreaming to have CSC DBT.
How to change active CSC?
Tried with Odin:
Code:
A202FXXU3BTI7_A202FOXM3BTI7_DBT
Then realized seems Multi CSC because ROM have also OXM ""Region""...
Second attempt with Combination Firmware...
Code:
COMBINATION_FAC_FA90_A202FXXU3ATD1_FAC3ATD1_CL15768665_QB30267852_REV00_user_mid_noship.tar.md5
Here Odin failed... and I saw funny warning text on screen...
Thought this will be easy 5 minute flash and voila ready DBT...
Thanx in advance.
Best Regards
Seems I managed my problem.
First mistake was to flash 5 files... with Home...
Now I have DBT, after using SIM Card from Germany and flashed 4 files and pressed Button during Settup and... magic...
Tried before without SIM card...
Only as info.
Best Regards

I managed to do the "bootloader", to log in in "download" mode and to have the "root of my A20e.. without major problems.... but the whole thing is almost useless because anyway you can not change (for what I need) the information of the phone (imei, SN... etc etc etc),, and I believe that it depends precisely on the new security it is equipped with, in accordance withGoogle.......I won't hide from you that I would gladly install the good old Android 4.4......

-Disable Auto System Update
-Then disable Automatic date and time (Found in General Management) > then set the time back 14 days
-Go to software update then check for update and wait till it registers the device on server
-Once it's registered the OEM Unlock should be visible in the Developer Options
