4) allow KIES to download the firmware
5) place phone in ODIN mode/Emergency Download Mode (hold VOL DWN and HOME while powering on ) then plug in phone to computer via USB
6) allow KIES to send image to phone. Have some ice cream and egg rolls and do not touch anything.
7) PROFIT! After the phone restarts, it will take you through initial set up (like when you bought it)

This what worked for me. Try this at your own risk .
I tried the stock rom listed here through Odin and I was not able to get back into my device because of the
FRP Lock. FRP Lock Binary Message , would not let any of the roms boot onto my device from Odin and I tried a lot of different solutions. This is the only thing that worked for me .
I downloaded Kies 3.
I installed it .
I put my device into download mode ( I did not connect it yet )
Kies wil tell you that your device is not compatible with the software .
Knowing that Tmobile software would be close enough I decided to give this a try. (Some people have bricked their phones trying to run t-mobile software through odin, this is running through kies is different, it worked for me.)
In Kies I then went to where it said Tools,
I selected the option that says "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization.
Its going to ask you for the model number and the serial number.
I won't go into details of how I got it but use the MN: SM-G530T1 - Serial Number: R28GA0EJ6FZ
Its a public serial number
Then from there it ask you to hook up your device,
Once you hook up your device you can continue with the install.
Make sure that you are taking the battery all the way out before putting the device in download mode. In my opinion this may be the best way to make sure it works.
Please let me know if this works for anyone. Thank all of you that helped me and gave me advice to get my phone restored . I hope that this helps everyone who has this issue.
One things for sure . This will make me never want to buy a metro device again especially if there devices aren't supported by samsung.
I'll try my best to answer any questions anyone might have. I'm really hoping that this will help all who have that nasty FRP LOCK

I setup my brothers phone with Kingroot like 2 weeks ago, then randomly yesterday this crap happens. This security feature is ridiculous. A warning, I can understand but this thing is borked.
Using the stock cable and connecting it to the laptop at the error screen, as well as at the bootloader. In both instances, the phone started charging, but wasn't detected by the PC.
Having the same issue. ..

I'm having he same issue with my phone but in addition, kies will not allow me to use the S/N that is on the phone. I also tried using the one you have listed and that didn't work either. I'm kinda stuck at this point.

The prog keeps saying the s/n isn't correct. Not sure what to do now. .
I did the same thing and everything works fine EXCEPT multimedia messages. From there as far as I've learned its just trial and error with access point names. Which in the grand scheme of things isn't that bad considering the run around I had to go thru before I found xda forums. Metro told me to file a claim and get a new phone, insurance provider said no and sent me to Samsung, Samsung said no sent me best buy, best buy was going to follow directions noted above except the serial number for the firmware was 1 digit off (I'm assuming they were skeptical about flashing tmobile firmware which I understand but they let me figure that one out on my own). Thank you XDA.
Sooo...how many and which ports have you tried on your PCs? Sammys are finnacky sometimes with USB ports. On my PC, only 1 port will detect ANY Samsung devices in Download Mode but the others work fine with every other device. Try all your ports, preferably USB 2.0 and on the back of your computer. Ones on the front don't usually have enough power for anything other than file transfers.
Just a suggestion from experience
So I bought my son a Galaxy Grand Prime and he said that he was playing some racing game on the phone. He then put the phone on the charger and now there is a message that says Custom Binary Block by FRP. I tried downloading Kies 3 but it is not allowing me to do anything with the phone. Nothing happened so I don't know if I did it correctly. I also took the phone to Samsung and they basically said that the phone is no good. like I am not understanding why this can't be fixed even by Samsung. Some one please help!!!
I do that but it says the S/N its incorrect when its not
Yeah, the kies repair works. You may have to try it a couple times. Just check out this video. Nothing will happen. When you connect your phone to PC until you put it in download mode

Oh also, after putting it in download mode it will give you a message saying something like "custom software can cause problems are you sure you want to proceed?". Click yes and proceed, then your phone will connect to the computer.
Just follow the directions and have Kies installed first.

You need a computer to run keis or Odin so that you can reflash your firmware
Hello everyone, I will make it short, yesterday I bought a s7 edge which worked perfectly until today when I decided to just restart it, it gave me FRD Error in RED. So I decided to go with a stock ROM (UK) , so I put this rom in ODIN, worked BUT there is this problem that come over and over:
1. I get a "Welcome" screen with language options. I select "English."
2. I get a "Wi-Fi" screen. I select my my wifi.
3. I get this message. "Unable to sign in to Wi-Fi AP. An unauthorized factory reset has been performed on this device. The sign-in screen cannot be accessed."
And I tried everything posible, I used only data and turn off wifi and it took me to "checking process" which never ends up checking.
Please I have been 9-10 hours on this and no IDEA where the problema is.
NOTE: The phone came with ROOT(I requested)
And also i remember a ROM Called AURORA.
THANKS
Tried this? http://www.xda-developers.com/rootjunky/
The OEM Unlock option in Developer Options had been unselected when you rebooted, you must have done this yourself otherwise it wouldn't have booted when you first started the phone after purchasing it when you powered up.
Anyway, it wouldn't have been FRD in red, it would have been FRP, which stands for Factory Reset Protection. This is to stop someone stealing a phone, factory resetting it, then selling it on or using it themselves with a new Google account. The official way of getting the phone back now is to sign into your Google account using the account information that was on the phone when you bought it, or the account details that you setup prior to rebooting. You should be able to sign into wifi in order to do this, I'm not sure why it's not allowing you to.

Don't think that works any longer, or I'll be surprised if it does given the amount of updates from Samsung since then. It's from 8 months ago.
Aurora ROM was only released yesterday. And you asked the seller for a rooted phone? So he installed a completely new ROM, only hours old, and sold it to you?
Really?!
Hello guys,
I bought a soft bricked S7 Edge with a dm-verity error because I thought I could easily fix the issue myself. The previous owner said he went to update the samsung software via android and this happened. But it doesn't seem too easy to fix. I've tried a bunch of different solutions I found on the interwebs but none have worked so far. I would appreciate some help because I don't seem to be making any progress.
EDIT: I've read that some people have reported losing their IMEI after an OTA update. Maybe that is what happened?
NOTE: I do NOT get the "failed to mount /efs" error
When I got the phone, it would boot directly into Android Recovery with a dm-verity error on the bottom. So here is what I tried:
1 . First I did the obvious, facotry reset and wipe partition. No change.
2. Downloaded the firmware with SamFirm (SM-G935F Regin ZTO) and flashed with Odin. It then booted into a screen with a hazard sign and a DRK error. Then returned to Android Recovery. Observation: When I extracted the firmware, I got a strange corrupted error. I downloaded it again, same corruption error. Is that normal? Also, I am not certain the region is ZTO, maybe this phone is from some other region. Does it matter?
3. I flashed the same firmware again. This time the phone booted up to a Samsung error that said to use SmartSwitch's Emergency recovery. I tried but it asks for a recovery code and I don't have one.
4. I tried to flash CF-autoroot but it gave an error in Odin and failed. EDIT: failed because "Blocked by FRP Lock" but I can't unlock the OEM like everyone else because I can't boot normally into android. Any workaround?
5. I downloaded firmware from a different region (UK). I got a DRK error and it booted into Android recovery. The bottom of the phone reads:
No Support SINGLE-SKUSupported API: 3dm-verity error...failed code : 0x02
6. I flashed the combination file and was able to boot into Factory Binary. I went into Settings to unlock OEM but there isn't that option in the Developer Settings!
That's where I am now. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Are you sure that it is an original 935F?

Samsung Yateley is Samsung's official UK QA facility, they only receive official products direct from the factories and those sent back for repair and refurbishment. I know this because it's literally just down the road from my house and a couple of friends have worked there over the years.
However, "SAMSUNG YATELEY GU46 6GG UK" has been on literally millions of devices worldwide for years.
It's not a reliable Indication of a genuine product or in fact an indication of anything other than the fact that Samsung have a facility in Yateley.
If the device is a refurb or even a fake it's entirely possible that it only says "SM-G935F SAMSUNG YATELEY GU46 6GG UK" because that's what it's supposed to say.
I'm sorry that I can't be of any more help but, I hope I've helped by stopping you from embarking on a wild goose chase.

I flashed the combination software and in the Factory Binary, it says MODEL: SM-G935F [SS]. Is the information reliable? Is there a possibility that the phone is fake? If so, is there a way to tell for sure?
EDIT: I checked the IMEI I got from the Factory Binary at IMEI.info and it seems to be valid.
I don't know

Try to use z3x box i read some function of z3x box but i'm not sure if it will fix your phone. Just go to gsm-forum for more details.
I thought this error message you're getting is because you flashed something on your phone intended for another model. I got the same error when I first got my S7 Edge because I stupidly thought I had the snapdragon variant when in fact the G935F is the Exynos variant. I got exactly the same error message. Have you tried reflashing stock firmware via Odin? Have you checked the Knox trip counter to see if the phone had been tampered with prior to you buying it? I live a stone's throw away from Yateley (5 mins maximum) if you want me to pop in and enquire?
Sent from my SM-G935F using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Sorry for the delayed response. I left my phone with some technicians with a ZX3 and Octopus Box and they were unable to fix the phone. But they didn't seem very interested either so maybe they just blew me off. Not sure. I'll try to find someone else soon.

This may be the problem. I have tried flashing the stock firmware with Odin but maybe I'm flashing the snapdragon variant instead of the exynos. How can I tell the difference?
My warranty is 1 (0x0500). That means that Knox was tripped right?

G935F is exynos yes

No, I haven't tried that yet. How do I access the S7 via adb again? Is it in download mode or in the recovery? Samsungs don't have "fastboot" right?
I'm in the exact same situation, it's FRP locked to me but I can't get passed the DM-Verity to unlock nor root to pass DM-Verity. Hard to believe this could be bricked from a software issue.

Did you ever find a solution?
Hey, I was able to unbrick the phone. But I had to take it to a technician that used a very interesting technique to reset the phone. Apparently, someone had tried to flash another IMEI on the phone. To reset the device, he switched out one of the memories (there are 3 or 4 slots). Then when you boot up the phone, it is tricked into thinking you are booting up for the first time. At leas that is what I understood. Maybe someone more familiar with phone hardware could explain the solution better.

You Can Try May Be Its Works For You
I tried the same and my fone booted but its very unstable with crashing apps and random restarts...
With smart switch it ends into dm varity verification hash tree error or dm-varity error
Any solutions...

Hi everyone !
I'm actually working in an IT centre (Don't know how to call that, or to traduce to you), and I just got a customer who handed me a Samsung SM-T580 tablet who is FRP locked... I've been searching since 3 days now, trying various methods, even trying a downgrade to other versions, but no luck. I've searched on XDA to see if anyone has got the same problem, but everyone has a different build number, as mine is T580XXU2AQA2. I've seen that if the 3 finals letters/number are PG1, I'm in luck, but if they're PL4, I'm unlucky. But what about QA2 ? And what about the FRP Lock on this build ?
Thanks for help, as I begin to lose hope...

Before attempting to flash ANY ROM on a T580, you have to enable "OEM unlock" in the /Setup/Developer options. If you don't, the way to unbrick the tablet is by using the Samsung Smart Switch app via a PC.

I can't do anything as I had the tablet already locked :/ I can just access the recovery and the download mode (As well as the normal boot, but it is pointless here).
I already flashed a stock ROM via Odin, and it worked fine as it was the same version in the tablet

If you can go to Setting and enable the OEM Unlock, you're not FRP lock and in owner account.
FRP ( Factory Reset Protection ) is a secured method from Google prevents anyone to continue in the settings without passing the verified account steps.
Without the previous synced account ID and password, it will keep you in a loop in the setting steps.

Obviously it is to late for the OP to change to "OEM enable" setting. I was merely pointing out the cause of the problem. But it also seemed apparent that the Google account settings are unknown.
I bought a tablet on eBay that had this problem and was able to get it working using Samsung Smart Switch run from a PC connected to the tablet in the download mode.

Hi everyone !
I'm actually working in an IT centre (Don't know how to call that, or to traduce to you), and I just got a customer who handed me a Samsung SM-T580 tablet who is FRP locked... I've been searching since 3 days now, trying various methods, even trying a downgrade to other versions, but no luck. I've searched on XDA to see if anyone has got the same problem, but everyone has a different build number, as mine is T580XXU2AQA2. I've seen that if the 3 finals letters/number are PG1, I'm in luck, but if they're PL4, I'm unlucky. But what about QA2 ? And what about the FRP Lock on this build ?
Thanks for help, as I begin to lose hope...

You see this message because you're still at first page of sign in. Reset it: Power + Volume Up + Home you should get to the Recovery and do a Factory Data Reset.
If you already have original owner information, you shouldn't have any problem of setting the tablet at the step of verifying google account.
I have done FRP bypass on the SM-T580 at least 10 tablets a day, so I can say FRP of Google is a joke. I have to deal with FRP lock everyday and I only need 10 minutes to bypass it.
[EDIT] Damned font I misread FRP for FAP
Posted elsewhere, but as I'm getting rather anxious and as I'm waiting for DBT-T580XXU2BQE4-20170525170357.zip to download... I ended up with a FAP lock. I can't find out if there's any difference from FRP lock - is there any?
Also, about Smart Switch, do the instructions from https://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=34745 apply? Smart Switch tells me that the device is unsupported and I don't get the Device Initialization tab!
Thanks!
[EDIT2] FW downloaded. Tried to use Odin, but there are four options: BL/AP/CP/CSC. Yet the FW package has these entries:
AP_T580XXU2BQE4_CL11316739_QB13491827_REV00_user_low_ship_meta.tar.md5
BL_T580XXU2BQE4_CL11316739_QB13491827_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CSC_OXA_T580OXA2BQE4_CL11316739_QB13491827_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
HOME_CSC_OXA_T580OXA2BQE4_CL11316739_QB13491827_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
So which one is CP?
You only need to load BL, AP, and CSC, ignore the HOME_CSC, but it seems you're flashing the Android 7 build from Germany which no method works.
You need to downgrade to Android 6, region doesn't matter for the purpose of bypass FRP. When it's done, flash back to your original region in Android 7.
Cellular South PL4 is the build you can downgrade and bypass FRP.

First of all, thank you for your reply indeed.
Yes, I guess it was from Germany since German was its language when it first booted and it was 7.0.
So I'm downloading XAR-T580UEU2APL4-20170407113933.zip (Cellular South PL4) and flashing it with Odin, but once it's done, how do I flash 7 again? Use Odin with the initial BL/AP/CSC that I got?
Again, thank you!
[EDIT] Oh yeah, 6.0 flashed successfully and I'm off FRP lock!!!! Thanks so much... Now I guess I turn on OEM enable in Dev options and flash BL/AP/CSC in Odin?
No need to flash back if you want to keep current US build if it has your prefer language.
However, it's now US tablet, it only update the latest one from US build.
No need to turn on OEM unlock if you know your own Google ID and password.
If you like, flash the Europe build as it has more languages than US one, the same way as you downgrade firmware: load BL, AP, and CSC to Odin.
You're right. I was asking because I thought I'd have lost OTA, which was not the case - device updated OTA to 7.0 so I then proceeded and rooted it again. *Now* OTA is dead, but I'm good.
I was thinking, probably, than on Samsung devices tripping Knox would disable OTA.
Thanks for your reply once more
Tripping Knox doesn’t disable OTA but if the status of firmware is Custom, you won’t be able to update software. I have some tablets which have Knox count more than 1, they update normally because I run stock firmware

Yup! I'm learning by doing
I guess that having an official FW but custom recovery equals to Custom, correct? Which means if I reflash original OTA will be back?
In the setting, About Tablet, Status, if the device status is Official, you have no problem of update via OTA.
Or in Download Mode, if the System Status is Official. I believe your system is Custom if having custom recovery.
Rooted device will become Official if you flash back the stock firmware , however the Knox counting is not rolling back to zero.
Yup, I did know about Knox (that would defeat the purpose, right? ).
If I'm not mistaken flashing original FW will erase data, no? So I'll save it for when there's a decent Oreo ROM out there. Then again, it won't be Original even then so I guess I'm off that road, but I don't think Samsung will be releasing any new OTAs any time soon so there's no meaning in it, surely?
Hi,
I did a search here for anything to do with (SM-G950W) and saw 10 threads about this model but I am unable to find a thread that has a solution to my problem. I have read posts about using Odin v3.12.7 and putting the phone into download mode then flash the PDA (now called AP) with a combination .MD5 file that is compatible for (SM-G950W). I tried flashing with a stock AP, one from a stock SM-G950U and several others that I have found from Google search and all I get from Odin is "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [abl]Fused 2 > Binary 1". I made sure I had the latest version (as of writing this post) of the Samsung USB Driver with version 1.5.63.0 so does anyone know how I can bypass the FRP (factory reset protection)? I see lots of Youtube videos about using a bluetooth device and calling emergency but I will avoid this method. I should also mention that the "download" screen does show FRP lock enabled if that matters (is this KNOX?).
I am trying to help my friend fix this problem because he locked himself out of his phone so I am out of ideas and for whatever reason he does not remember the last Google account that was synced with his phone. We tried all the emails that "he" thinks it is and when we put in his cell phone # the recovery said it will send us the verification code but it fails.
Any help would be appreciated and thanks to those who replied.
EDIT:
I got Odin to flash the phone now. I had to use Canada (Rogers), version 7.0, PDA - (G950WVLU2AQK7), CSC - (G950WOYA2AQK7), date 2017-12-10 from SamMobile website. I wanted to flash the XAC version to remove Rogers branding but I kept getting the "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [abl]Fused 2 > Binary 1" error. Anyway, the phone rebooted back to FRP (factory reset protection) screen to enter a Google account. So back to square one unless someone knows which file I need to flash in order to bypass or unlock FRP.
Thanks,

Use a tool like chimera tool you'll be able to get past that no problem. Should be able to anyway. 99% of people on these forums will automatically brand you a thief because nobody here apparently forgets their login account info and are otherwise perfect citizens

First off, thank you for being helpful. I even invited myself to the telegram group "Galaxy S8/S8+ (XDA Group)" to ask for help there too and some people was not as helpful by telling us that it would be impossible to forget the login. Seriously, I could have laughed at my friend and call him dumb but I didn't because he came to me for help. I searched and read so many forums and downloaded so many different files from legal websites to understand what to do but I couldn't get it resolved.
I will try the "chimera" tool that you suggested and if that doesn't work then we will just give up and bring the phone to a repair shop. I spoke to someone at Google today who said gmail password resets may take up to 24 hours for the phone to recognize. So we will try again with the 3 gmail accounts that we think was synced with the phone tomorrow because the passwords was just reset today however the representative said Samsung might be able to help so he transferred us to the Samsung in the U.S. (by mistake?) and the girl from Samsung transferred us to Samsung Canada. What a run around; anyway the last person said we may need to bring it to a repair shop. The person asked us for our postal code and gave us a few shops in our area.
Crossing our fingers that the "chimera" tool works otherwise we're probably looking at $50-$60 CAD for the phone repair shop to fix this issue.
Thanks again!

So I installed chimera and it doesn't list SM-G950W as an available model to reset the FRP. Do I need an update or do I need to buy something to get more supported models? Also I looked at "http://www.techoxygen.com/samsung-fr...frp-lock-free/" and downloaded the "Octoplus Samsung Tool" the download file came with a trojan virus which got removed by antivirus program. Now when I try to open the Octoplus tool it is saying that the "Card is not found". What does that mean? Sorry I never done this before so I am not familiar with these terms.

Give this a shot
If that doesn't work go to YouTube and search bypass frp lock SM-G950W. You'll get it eventually

Thanks for your help. We tried watching the videos but our Samsung S8 does not have a home button. Anyway, we decided to go to a local phone repair shop and they charged us $80 to reset the lock. We had to wait a bit because the Samsung server was down but at least we got our phone working again.
Also if anyone is wondering about the chimera tool and support for Samsung S8 this is the response I got from their support team:
Dear User,
Yes, currently it is not supported. The FRP reset is not added for the S8 models.Of course we will add it, in the near future. When? right now i can not tell you exact date, but i am sure that we can handle it soon.
Best regards,
Chimera team

Right on at least you got it going again. I just kinda assumed chimera tool supported that cause I've been using it for years on my other galaxy phones and was unlocking a whole bunch of other phones for $10 a pop.
I have same problem with my sm-g950w and don't want to pay 80$ at phone repair shop
hopefully if I wait a little, more option will become available for the frp reset
if anyone has any more options, please let me know

It's not that everyone thinks that, it's that there is no way to tell from a forum post, and rather than risk making xda complicit in a felony it's safer and fairer to just not answer any of them on the board where there is an official record. Just wait until some judge subpones all of xdas servers because they hold official records in an ongoing criminal case

Ok trying to help here, if you already flashed the phone with version 7 its means will get easy to bypass the G account, just there are a lot of videos on you tube but the easiest one is in spanish.. (freedom phone) the name of the you tuber, if not there are more in english..
Android 7 allow you to update the keyboard which is necessary in order to complete the task, it will take just 10 minutes I did one T mobile but it will work with the canadian one as long as the phone has the version 7.. btw i am downloading the rogers firmware to flash my canadian one.. thanks for the tip..
XDA never encourages this "fishy" applications for some really really desperate people that needs help.
Samsung repair centre can fix your FRP Locked phone. Just present your Proof of purchase/receipt/ warranty card and of course your phone
So you can use your phone again.
FRP security is implemented to prevent unauthorized access on your phone.
So make sure you don't forget your main google account logged in on your phone.
It is really recommended that you have "MULTIPLE WAYS" of retrieving your Google account
Make sure your G Account has
(
1. phone number
2. recovery email
3. provided security
4. Q&A
5. Google recovery page ( you need to answer personal info/identity you can remember)
)

If this helps you i have the SM-G950W (G950WVLS3BRE1) and i made it work by flashing the COMBINATION_FA70_G950USQU3ARD1 first then i flashed the firmware 4 file G950USQU3CRD4 using BL+AP+CP+HOME_CSC+USERDATA and it worked beautifully. Maybe it will help your issue.

Hi,
I am new to this forum and need some help please.
I have a Samsung S8 (G950WVLU5BRG4) with Android Version 8.0. The phone is unlocked and from Rogers in Canada but has a Google FRP.
Although I followed the step by step instructions with the combination file and so on Odin keeps showing me an error and is unable to bypass the Google account lock. The error message I am getting within log of the combination file is:
FAIL! (Auth)
Complete (Write) operation failed
All threads completed. (succeed 0/ failed 1)
Any idea of how to solve this problem? I am sure it got solved already by someone in the forum but I can't find the right entry.

No so you need a 950 U combo equal to that of what is on your device
