Soft Bricked (SM-G530W)

I was trying to upate the SUBinary and it told me to reboot. As soon as I did I get a message saying "Custom Binary Blocked by FRP" and a red text saying "Secure Fail : Kernal" help me.

It has something to do with your Google account being logged into the phone.. samsung can send signal to reset it but they won't if it's been rooted etc still trying to make sure reflash omg the phone with original rom would make it worse or not. Or maybe just reflash in the kernal. I'm on t mobile but can only find original rom on t mobile same network but we will see. I'm on my fiance a accident messaging from her phone lol or maybe just reflash the kernal the whole problem for me is I don't have a computer to try to reflash from what someone told me I may try to reflash with odin 3.90 with a tar file to the exact model number

Solution

sorry for super messy post i rarely post things i hope this saves you time

This is the best and quick fix for FRP Lock
...Just follow the link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/grand-prime/help/custom-binary-blocked-frp-t3266961/page3
Worked for my SM-G530W
I had the same problem, and i used Kies3 (not compatible with my phone anyway), but if you go on toolbar to "TOOLS", "Firmware Upgrade and initialisation", it asks you for your device model (for mine i typed SM-G530W, and then it asks you for device serial number (S/N) found under the battery by the IMEI number. After this, follow on screen prompts (Restart your device in Download mode/ PDA, connect USB cable, etc), and let the software download and install (factory rom); After your device restarts, you are good to go (sometimes if it gets stuck on booting, remove battery for few second and start again.) Now you have to go back and set up everything you want, including re-rooting your device... Good luck. (My device is Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G530W Factory unlocked rom, Android 5.11.

phone bricked badly galaxy s6 edge plus

hello ,
i rooted my Phone and did a very stupid thing and in settings i turned of oem unlock and usb debugging off again. so now my Phone wont start cause of the message "custom binary(recovery) blocked by frp lock.
i tried something trough odin for the recovery but it failed so now the Phone wont turn off and when i try to go to recovery mode it says "an error has occurred while updating the device software .use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch pc software"
i tried that but the Phone is not compatible with smart switch and with samsung kies 3.
what can i do to unbrick my Phone , is it possible to fix my Phone after this?
regards, marco

Its because you didnt explored smart switch properly ..
I have been there with my phone samsung galaxy j5 ... it happened just like yours ... i rooted my phone, forgot to check oem unlock and got the "custom binary blocked by frp lock" .. then i went to odin and flashed my firmware .. and it turns out .. the firmware i flashed is not the firmware of my phone .. so i got the message "an error occured while updating blah blah please go to smart switch blah blah blah " but i fixed it so theres solution for that ... smart switch
You said smart switch cant read your device?? Its because its bricked theres no way it can be read ..
So all you have to do:
1. Open smart switch
2. Go to "more"
3. Then go to "emergency software recovery and initialization"
5. Then go to "device initialization"
6.Put your model number and then your S/N or serial number .. it is found in the back of your edge plus.. it starts with letter R..
7.. after that .. you wait .. it will download the files for your phone...
That way you wont be flashing ramdom firmwares .. your phones firmware will be flashed since smart switch used the serial number.. i hope this helps..

Did i just brick my brand new A5 2016 ??!. Problem Solved

EDIT: Problem solved!!!
I used this tutorial: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...very-samsung-sm-a510f-fd-exynos7580-t3314399/ to install TWRP and root my SM-A510FD on 6.0.1 . My device was rooted and working perfectly until stupid me decided to turn off "OEM Unlock" and i restarted my phone and now it says "custom binary blocked by frp lock" The only thing i can do is go to the Download mode. I tried to use Samsung Kies and Smart Switch when in Download mode but they tell me that my device is not supported. But Odin detects my device and says "Added!!". I am currently downloading the stock firmware for my device from Sammobile and i plan to flash it using Odin.
- Will putting the firmware file in the AP section of odin and clicking start work to fix the problem? (I do not care if i will loose data)
- If this will not work is there anything else that i can do? I can't take it to repair because Knox is tripped and i do not have my receipt. If my phone is bricked forever please tell me so i don't waste my time trying to fix it.
Thank you so much in advance! Any help would be extremely appreciated!!

Just flash stock firmware and you are good to go, if it wont boot turn it off, reboot to recovery(stock) and wipe data & factory reset, later you can again flash twrp and root but dont turn off OEM unlock.

What about when my j7 says custom binary blocked by frp lock(boot.img) secure fail:kernel. It will boot into recovery, and download. Factory wipe does nothing, so recovery mode is useless to me at the moment. my computer detects the phone enough to say Unknown USB device (Device Descriptor Request Failed) driver error as the label of the phone. No matter what mode I'm in. Drivers are up to date, odins good, usb port, computer, and data cords are all good. I've flashed other phones and hooked this one up to another pc to see that it says the same thing. How do I get the computer and/or odin to agree with my phone enough to pick it up as a good device?

Loads of trouble with removing FRP from A5 2017 (A520F)

So, this has been giving me lots of trouble. The phone is locked with FRP. (By the way I am a complete noob). I tried to flash(root? what is it called?) the phone with CF-Auto-Root but it gave me a "Custom Binary(RECOVERY) Blocked By FRP Lock" in the Odin mode. I tried flashing with TWRP also and I got the same thing. I obviously cannot access the phone to remove the "OEM protection", which is apparently the fix. Also, excuse me if I'm going about this the wrong way and there is a much simpler method of removing the FRP from my phone. Thanks

Download the Smart Swtich and connect phone with USB
Make sure all samsung USB drivers are installed
Then start SS and press MORE button and select Emergency Software Recovery wait about 1Hour Maybe less to firmware download and the phone will boot but u need to enter your gmail and password to acess it
Press Thanks if it works
Cheers

I have samsung galaxy s8 that I need to get passed the google frp lock. I bought the phone, but cant use it at all . When I open recovery mode it shows :

I have followed previous threads and attempted the flash of a combination file thru odin, but every time I am receiving an error
I believe i am reading and understanding this correctly but its been a while, but the G95 # above would indicate bootloader 7? revision 3?
I attempted with combination file -- COMBINATION_FA70_G950U1SQU7ASK1 , i will attach screenshot of odin error. Please anyone, I would so greatly appreciate any help with this, i have been working on it for days... if you need any other info , I will reply ASAP of receiving notification. TY
