Hey guys! I have here a friend's SM-J500M/DS, as she goes in some dangerous places she want to work with this J5 and leave the iPhone X at home.
The problem is that she don't uses this for years and don't have acess to the old google acount.
She tried to reset data in recovery mode and the FRP lock is now on. The last time i had an android was a galaxy y and a galaxy note 1, so i don't know how to procced...
I tried to flash a stock rom and it got bricked i guess that's the point of the FRP lock...
What is happening?
I have tried 4 firmware versions, 3 odins versions and 3 diferent drivers...None of them worked.
Everytime i try to flash the stock rom it got stuck transfering the aboot file.
After some tries it got stuck checking connection (I guess this would be the drivers mess i made).
What i want to do:
Well, unlocking a phone with a lost account is not really my job, i work with hardware only. But i do want to get it at least working and booting again and hand it over as it was...
If i could remove the account locking would be perfect tho

Hello,
My story is pretty much the same as other people here. 2 weeks ago I rooted my S6 edge + and everything was fine, the device was working I downloaded lots of apps that needed special root permission done a lot of ad blocking---- Long story short the root was successful with ODIN and everything was working fine, I didn't mess around with other parts of the OS tho. So today I was checking my snap chat when all the sudden my phone started lagging, it does that every once a while, it used to happen on my note 3 too its just Samsung bug. Anyways it was lagging so I decided to press the restart button, I put the phone on my desk and continued to finish my work on my laptop about half an hour later I checked my phone for snap chats, but i realised that it didn't turn back on. I held the power button and this came up on top left corner.
KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING (this one showed up before every time I booted after my root)
CUSTOM BINARY BLOCKED BY FRP LOCK (this one was new tho, I never seen it before)
Which means Im F***** because Im on a bootloop, and my battery could die anytime...
So I've done a little researching and I came up with the conclusion that I can use ODIN to put Official stock firmware back on my phone, but as I think everyone knows. I don't think there is Official stock firmware for G928W8. Which is weird, its the only firmware left out by who ever creates or extracts official firmware off Samsung phones. I also tried using smart switch but the device is apparently is not supported, although ODIN recognises it. I tried re rooting, on my phone it said Custom Binary(BOOT) blocked y FRP Lock. So basically I paid $1,150.00 and my phone bricked itself after 2 weeks. No stock firmware for G928W8, and no luck with Smart Switch. I don't have any other phone to use while an original stock firmware gets released by XDA. I looked pretty much everywhere there is no G928W8 Stock Firmware. So any ideas I really need to make some calls?
Thanks,

So I've searched around the past few hours and can't seem to find a solution to my issue. I have a friend that is currently down on his luck and staying at a homeless shelter, he bought this phone because phones are pretty much a necessity nowadays, samsung galaxy on5, trouble is that the phone was locked when he turned it on so he was stuck with a paperweight, it's been a long time since I tinkered with phones but I figured I could help him out by booting into recovery and doing a factory reset. I had no idea about samsung factory reset protection and now were back to paperweight mode. I downloaded jodin3 and heimdall, but it never shows as connected. Can I root the phone while in recovery or load the factory rom so I can get the phone working again? Thanks for any help.
No, the only options are either ordering a remote unlocking service or find a guide on YouTube. The YouTube way will involve some patience and trial and error. Many guides don't specify what update on the phone they are working on and/or will state that their particular method works for EVERY phone. The stock recovery will tell you what update that it is on by the build number. This might help pinpoint which method to work.
FRP = Google Factory Reset Protection
Samsung Reactivation Lock is a different beast.
Which one does the phone have?
HI
My friend need help with his NOTE 3 SM-N9005 LTE
Phone wont boot anymore. It only bootloops. I installed stock rom 2 times with ODIN and still phone stuck on recovery booting and then reboots only.
Then i flashed TWRP with ODIN and cleared everything on phone and wiped then installed MagMa_NX_UX9.7_Premium_XDA ROM
and everything sucess and seems fine, but when comes to boot it only stucks at Note 3 Splash some time and reboots.
I wonder if his partitions are ****ed up or something? ODIN dont show any errors neither.
HE said that this came after some update or something but i dont know if he tells the truth about what really happened
with the phone.
Any way to reparition whole phone and maybe update bootloader or something?
I forgot to mention that he replaced the LCD with new one but could it realy be issue? Because everything works in recovery and i can see Samsung Note splash screen.
I manage to fix it.
I flashed EUR version of STOCK ROM instead of NEE and phone finnaly booted. I dont know what the heck problem was.
Hello, a friend of mine gived me an hard bricked phone.
As written in the title the phone is a Samsung galaxy A5 2016, SM510F.
Is not the first time I do things like that, but this phone is quite frustrating to work with.
I tried everything on this phone but the only thing that it does is the download mode.
It has no hardware problems, everything is working fine. The battery can't be removed.
I obviously tried to let it charge for long time. It does not even shows the battery icon while charging.
No boot, no logo.
I tried flashing 2 different version of the original ROM downloaded from SamMobile with Odin.
I tried an old and a new one.
I tried Flashing the Bootloader extracted from the ROM.
I tried flashing the 4 part ROM.
I tried flashing the PIT, since i suspected that my friend somehow cleard NAND while he was trying to flash the Root.
But out of this I get nothing. Odin gives a success but the phone only turned off and did not reboot.
I ask you if you have some different ideas, some similar experiences or some advices.
If you have some files please remember that I'm italian, so I need ITV.
I have no more ideas. Otherwise I will tell my friend to try to go to a samsung center.
Thanks.
You can try install custom recovery
Samsung S8-SM-G950F custom binary blocked by FRP locked, i saw so many theards about this and i read them, and i still don't know what to do, so my question is if i download firmware with "SamFirm" and then use oddin will i get my phone unlocked from that ? As i had custom rom for year and half and today i got that error for the 1st time , also if the "SamFirm" is not good for that can someone give me link for firmware for my phone as updato and all other sites download soo slow at 15 kb/s and i can't use them it will take 20hours to download that (
Similar situation, I broke my S8 screen, so never got it fixed, and was recently without a laptop, so thought id use the S8 thru Dex, it all worked no probs, however, I used to unlock bootloaders to install custom firmware and os's but didnt think id done it on my S8 as it was still under warranty, so upon looking in the developer options, i saw that OEM Unlock was on, so i switched it off, not remembering rooting the phone, now i get same error it bootloops and says custom binary frp lock. Did u ever get yours sorted? I know my google account to login 2 it if i ever get the official rom back working, but trying odin and smartswitch restore im still stuck, just keeps failing, saying frp lock. Cant even get into recovefry mode to factory reset, didnt thiunk i had TWRP installed on it, but i must have. Anyway, if anyone can pls help me pls contact me here or at dcillusionz at proton dot me. Thanks.
PS - I tried downloading from SamFW and using Odin, but FAILED. Hoping u had some luck?
