Each time i try to flash TWRP recovery on my galaxy s8 i keep getting this error
only official binaries are allowed to be flashed(recovery) twrp it's the 950f model
Flash stock firmware to fix.
Make sure OEM is unlocked in developers options.
In download mode make sure KG/RMM state is showing checking/normal
Also make sure FRP is off.

What kind of stock firmware?
Rmm sate: prenormal is this ok?
Stock firmware can be downloaded from websites like updato, sammobil etc.
Or search on XDA for PC app called frija. It will download latest firmware.
If RMM state showed prrenormal you can't flash twrp, root etc. Has to be normal or disappeared from download mode.

I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER... but I have a rooted, unlocked BL, with TWRP on 5.0 OF1 BUILD and here is what it says in the DOWNLOAD MODE.
Odin mode
Product name: Sm-900v
Current Binary: Custom
System Status: Custom
Reactivation Lock: off
Qualcomm Secure Boot: enabled (csb)
Ap Swrev: S1,T1,A1,A4,P1
MODE: Developer
Secure Download: Enable
UDC Start
I think the "MODE: Developer" is the answer if the bootloader is unlocked. BUT AGAIN I DON'T KNOW FOR SURE.
What you can try to find out for yourself is..
1.go to download mode and write down what it says.
2. Root your phone.. then check what it says again.
3. Unlock BL again see what it says.
If it says "Developer" after you unlock bl then it a good assumption that it's ulocked.
Good luck.

Yes, if you see developer mode on the download page... It is bootloader unlocked.

Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 edge ( SM-G935F ) Exynos Version.
I flashed the new Oreo Firmware with Odin. I have also a Samsung Gear 3 and wanted to use SHealth. I rooted the device ( didnt work) .
I set back the OEM setting in the Developer Options and turned off USB-Debugging. After restarting I got an ERROR: Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock.
I deleted my Data : "Wipe data/factory reset" in the Android Recovery
Now my Problem: I cannot flash the Stock Firmware again and i cannot flash TWRP.
So I think i dont have Android and i also dont have enabled the options OEM & USB-Debugging.
Has anyone an Idea what to do?

So you have disabled oem unlock and you can't flash custom rom or recovery due to custom binary blocked by frp error..
Also you can't flash stock rom due to dm verity error if i guessed correctly?
You are badly stuck... maybe follow this thread it may help https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/how-to/guide-onelatest-stock-fw-csc-root-t3702963/

I was on oreo stock and rooted .... after installing pie stock and reboot in download mode.... normally it would be a prenormal state...but it did not ....
so no need to wait 7 days..and no need of no-verity and RMM bypass....
You can actually unlock OEM an then flash stock firmware and it will set rmm state to "checking" no prenormal OP mentions. Then flash recovery and magisk as suggested. This works like a charm. Thanks!
Hi. So I have flashed stock firmware with odin and I already have OEM unlocked in developer settings.
But Download mode still says KG status prenormal.
My model is SM-G950N with latest stock pie.
Odin wont install TWRP.
Searched and tried guides but none of them address this issue with having OEM already unlocked and KG Prenormal. Any help please?
I have the same issue with G950FD..tried all guides with no luck..i hope there would be combination files U7 sooner
Im in [email protected]** samsung Bull$**t..

Same here. No U4 combination files for N either. Why did I even update
I thought waiting 7 days without reboots and with an internet connection will clear RMM state: prenormal?
I got a Galaxy S8 G950F with Android 9 ( G950FXXUCDUD1 ).
Can i simply Root this device by Flashing TWRP via Odin ?? ( OEM Bootload unlocked surely ) or will i get problems with this android version ??
I read something about problems with rooting the s8 on Android9...
What about that?

Yes
As long as the following conditions apply:
OEM unlocked in developers menu
In Download ( odin ) mode:
FRP off
OEM off
KG status - Checking
Probably not on this version but if you have RMM state should show normal or disappeared
Then you can root your phone with either twrp or patched method
What is FRP, KG status, RMM State??
Never heard of this things before

Ahh okay .... i think FRP is that what makes trouble when u factory resetting a used phone ...
When i boot into DL-mode it shows me:
Current Binary : samsung official
FRP lock: off
OEM lock: off
Secure Download: Enabled
and three brown" lines and 17 Green lines ... but nothing about KG-Status or something with RMM_state ....
So flashing TWRP via Odin with this settings will work?
( but better using the TWRP Flashing after Oreo guide with 1 or 2 extra flashing files and SU , right ?? Or just only actuall TWRP Version via odin and finish? )

In regards to FRP question basically yes.
Did you have internet connected while in the system. On this version ( G950FXXUCDUD1 ) you will only have to worry about KG status. If it's not showing up your can try to flash twrp. I would keep a copy of your firmware in case you end up with ' only official binary crap ' error. This usually means bootloader is not fully unlocked.
Using guides for installing twrp ( only ) are still valid but some files are either updated, not necessary or have change but the method is the same.
Depending on what twrp version you use will depend on the no-verity zip required. This is basically all you need to install twrp.
I'm using the latest twrp version and use this no-verity zip. You will have to and ' quota ' the zip file name.
