custom binary block by frp lock - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

First of all Hello everyone, my phone version is SM-N950F and CSC XXV
I disabled OEM by accident, now i have that message on my phone, so i tried flashing it with ODIN and an updated version of my phone, but i keep getting Fails no matter the firmware i use, for example "sboot.bin fail", can anyone help me ?

It's probably too late now, but for anyone with the same problem samsung has a protection so that if somebody steals your phone and your bootloader is unlocked they can't just flash a custom fw to use the phone. FRP lock is simply a lock activated whenever you have a google account linked with the phone so to disable it just remove the google account, or reset the phone, but be sure to do it from within android and not from the recovery.

Phone will not booting anymore, please help

Hey guys since today I can not startup my phone. The screen stays black and in red
text I got the message "custom binairy blocked by FRP lock"
Can anybody help me please.
FRP lock stands for Factory Reset Protection, it's there to stop a phone being stolen and sold on. You must have made changes (root etc) without first setting the OEM Unlock to on in Developer Options.
You now need to flash the stock rom with ODIN and, on boot, log in using the Google account that was in use when the changes were made and the lock happened. Without that Google account you won't be able to use the phone. As soon as you do that, go into the Dev Options and select OEM Unlock to stop it happening again.
Thanks for your answer, is there any url where I can download the stockrom for the G935F and any tutorial how to flash with Odin?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3335065
Now I donloaded Odin 3.11 and the latest firmware file.
I did also extract the firmware file, now 5 files are comming up.
I understand to put one in AP, one into CP, one into BL and one into CSC.
But where do I have to put the file starting with HOME?
List the contents of the zip/rar.
It, is done now. Phone is booting again and I had to verify with my google account.
Thanks for your fast and kindly helping.
No probs, glad you sorted it.

Flash the stock ROM of the same version that your phone has. It must be restored back to normal without affecting and ATA other than that your device will be unrooted automatically as a result of replacing the system files which are identified as corrupted by Odin and restored. To avoid further FRP locks I'd recommend turning the "OEM Unlock' setting under "Developer Options" on.
Some months ago when I got this phone I was unable to install any ROMs on my device, because of FRP lock. I was able to disable the lock simply by going in to developer options (in the settings) and enabling the OEM unlock feature, which the guy above me was talking about.
When the binary is blocked by the FRP you must install the factory firmware, then enter the recovery and do a factory reset since the FRP prevents external access to the system and data as prevention
You will be prompted for the email and password of the previously used account
When activating the oem unlock you can install Twrp, kernel or custom rom without the activation of FRP security that is activated when you establish a security pattern in the device

Custom binary (recovery) blocked by FRP lock

Hi. My cousin asked me to root his SM-G531F and flash custom ROM to it. So, I come to him and tired to flash TWRP, just like I did on my SM-G350. But there's a problem - flashing fails, and there's a message "Custom image (recovery) blocked by FRP lock" or something like that. We rebooted (by taking battery of) phone and checked "OEM unlock" in dev settings. Tired to flash again - same message. IDK what more can we do. I don't want to brick his phone.
Also, when I searched for "FRP lock" there were no problem like ours, but lots of devices in bootloop with this message AFTER sucessful flash of custom ROM... That make me think about this all the day. I NEVER eccountered problem like that, but I never had so new phone, only old and easy-flashable ones. Is FRP lock dangerous? Do I need to do something to not brick his phone?
I found two types of slimiar looking locks - FAP lock and FRP one. Mine is rather FRP, I think I can read. What they really are and how they differ?

FRP: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/frp/
FRP Just locks your phone if you alter the boot or recovery image and you had a google account registered. To unlock it you have to wipe data (factory reset) and reflash stock boot.img and recovery.img before using it again. If your cousin wants to flash my ROM (lineageos-13.0) he'd better not, its not stable and he will encouter random reboots and codecs bugs. The best thing to do is to remove FRP from his phone and flash Magisk (a root manager like SuperSU) and debloat it.
For more information, find the Grandprimevelte group on Telegram.
I think I'm having the exact same problem as OP, the thing is that when you flash twrp and the magisk on the phone with FRP disabled (no google account) it works just fine, but if you choose to add a google account to the device later you get a bootloop. If you try flashing with a google account logged in on the phone it doesn't let you (same as OP).
Is there any way to add a google account on the device after flashing twrp and magisk without enabling FRP lock? Thank you

Yes, you must install a boot.img without frp. Then you will be able to use a custom boot/recovery and root your phone without problem.

How to remove FRP Lock Android 8.0

Hi,
I've bought a screen broken G935F and fixed the screen. Now, I want to make a factory reset and start using the phone. But when I try to flash TWRP via Odin, it says "custom binary blocked by frp lock". What should I do to use that phone? I've reached the guy I've purchased the phone but he doesn't remember the pattern.
Regards.

This happens when oem unlock is turned off in developer options. You need to enable it for flashing any custom binary.
Try flashing matching binary stock rom in odin and then enabling oem unlock.
If it asks last google account after flashing stock rom, then just enter your google account details. And if you don't have them, well there are methods on youtube to bypass google account frp lock. I guess some of them should still work.
And if your phone's binary version is 6 or lower you can try using combination rom with matching binary too. Good luck

*Extremely* Weird issue with OEM and FRP Lock on Samsung J5 Prime

Hi everyone, i’m having an extremely weird issue with my Samsung J5 Prime (SM-G570Y/on5xelte). First of all; sorry for bad english, this post will be a bit long.
So i want to unlock OEM, to install custom recovery and custom ROM (and being able to login with google account from gms (Google Play Service app)).
i activate developer options.
Then go to Settings > Developer Options, but OEM Unlock is missing (i did'nt have the screenshot of the settings), i already try every method to reappear it but nothing worked.
Trying my luck, im rebooting my phone to download mode, on there i didn’t see any text that says OEM Unlock, i tried to flash OrangeFox Recovery using ODIN. And suprisingly it worked, i even double-checked it by actually booting to recovery. i did'nt expect it to work though...
Then i install RadicalQuack Custom ROM, and do some root-level customization.
But as soon as i try to login Google account from Google Play Service (this didnt affect web login or any other login) on Stock/Custom ROM, and reboot the phone... my phone was FRP locked, i was shocked because my configuration isn’t even backed up.
I have to flash stock rom in download mode, get to setup, login google, remove the account, then i can get rid of FRP lock.
And at this point is where everything is confusing.
If i use stock rom without any changes, the "OEM Unlock" option is'nt appearing at all.
But if i use custom ROM (in this case i use RadicalQuack), the "OEM Unlock" option Appears (until i remove "ro.frp.pst" in build.prop)
So i can do anything but CANNOT login using Google Account from Google Play Services or get FRP locked and All data destroyed.
Now my question is, is it safe to enable "Unlock OEM"? Because i dont know if OEM Unlock is currently enabled or not, i dont know how to check if the bootloader is actually locked, i dont want to get locked forever on samsung stock and bloated shtt again.
PS:
Somehow... i can login Google account without getting FRP locked by:
Unlocking OEM (on the custom ROM ofcourse, since it won't be visible on stock ROM anyway...)
and removing "ro.frp.pst" (especially "ro.frp.pst=/dev/block/persistent") on /system/build.prop, /system/vendor/build.prop, /vendor/build.prop
what did you do?
Hiii, what did you do? I need to unlock oem un my j5 prime
Same Problem Happens to me But Now How you use custom rom without getting frp lock please Tell I Have Also J5 prime And Same Happens to me also I need to flash stock rom from which my custom rom get erased
