Samsung "Custom Lock" icon on boot

Not sure if this has been answered already (maybe I'm bad at searching) or if it has to do with the Flash Counter, but anyone know how to get rid of the Custom Lock icon that appears on the boot up screen?

Yep been answered before.
You get it when you flash a non 100% original Odin package. So like route 66.
To make it go away you have to flash the completely stock Samsung image and do the non Odin root in the dev section.

Thank you. Is there currently any known reasons if this should cause concern? I should be good with leaving it as is atm, right?
Hoping eventually there's a flashable zip to clear that...

It also happens if you do the non ODIN root and then you freeze or remove systems apps

Will the USB Jig from the SGS2 do anything for this Device?

Not sure but from what I have read it doesn't appear to be compatible. Pins are in different places.

Yes. The jig from the s2 works and will reset the counter and eliminate the lock image.

It does not ... if you disable the SysScope.apk immediately after rooting.

I like the unlock custom display. Shows that I am enjoying my custom phone!

Can you go into more detail? Wouldn't you have to boot after root, so can disable SysScope be done anytime? What other uses did SysScope have?

If you use the "debugfs" exploit, once you obtain root, the first thing you should do is rename /system/app/SysScope.apk and you should be good.
My method was based off analysis done by Ralekdev, which according to him there is a process scanner as part of SysScope.apk that will look for apps running as root outside a list of 'whitelisted' apps.
To your question, yes it is a bit of what came first the chicken or the egg -- but I'm assuming this process scanner is not constantly running so if you just do it right away before running other apps as super user regularly there is little chance it will be tripped.

I used the odin way to root my device and the GPS does not work so I received my CLN device and need to get rid of the custom boot. Is there any other way to get rid of it?

Custom recoveries are what triggers the unlock icon. If you flash the stock recovery, the unlock icon should disappear.

There are actually other ways to get the padlock notification than custom recoveries. I've got it from modifying my framework-res.apk file, and you can get it from deleting and modifying system apps, changing ROMS through Odin and so on. It's really not a big deal unless you need to clear it for warranty related purposes. If you do, follow the guide on development, or get a jig for 3 bucks on ebay.

I just followed the guide in the development sections. Everything is A-OK and I'm ready to send back in the old one. The CLN device seems to be in pretty good shape.

For what it's worth I flashed TWRP using dd and did not trip the counter after disabling the apk (and shared lib it uses to be sure).

Unbrick

So yesterday I was running cm9 and I decided to flash a different Rom so I went onto recovery and wipe the phone and then went ahead and flashed
The redemption rom. I went ahead and waited for about 10 minutes to see if it works reboot the samsung logo came on last for like 2 seconds then the screen went blank. So now I into Odin to see if I could flash the Stock image.. when I tried that the first step goes through then I go to the second step and it fails. Here are some pics of my computer and my phone. Please help.

Never ever do that, get your sources from here, you might have repartioned your phone which is not recoverable. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762709 go here and scroll down to return to stock.

L710 is the model number of the Sprint GSIII. Hopefully you can get it back with section 2 of the link posted above.

If that doesn't work use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840030 and it will unbrick your phone.

It looks like your are right ... I wanna thank you for pointing out that I was trying to install the sprint version and not the Verizon version. What relief... Thank you again.

Glad you got it working again. Just so happened to recognize the L710 model number from modifying the build.prop to get Google Wallet working. Always be sure that anything you flash for the Galaxy SIII is for the Verizon specific I535. They all look the same but can put you up #(*%*'s creek if you're not careful. I'd suggest avoiding anything that's not specifically in the Verizon Galaxy SIII sub-forums.

Bricked P-6200 Advice Please

The worst has happened and it's all my fault
Having not used my Galaxy Tab for some weeks (I've been using my SGS III) I updated to the latest Brazillian ICS firmware and for a stupid reason did a factory rest which has resulted in me bricking my Tab.
I am now getting a boot loop on the screen that states it's a Galaxy Tab Plus, I can get into download mode but not recovery.
Having read a number of posts of similar problems, have tried flashing a .pit file and firmware but still no joy. It seems that it may have to be a trip to the Samsung Service Centre. Thankfully in download mode it is still showing a stock firmware with a zero counter.
Would be interested for any experiences on people who have had to return it to a service centre and whether I may get any potential problems as it was bought off ebay around 6 months ago and is the P-6200L model.
Any help is appreciated :good:

I'm not sure about this but u may try to flash cm10.. firstly download pit file and Odin then u flash the pit file.. also download cwm and cm10 then flash cm using cwm.. then wait for the device to reboot.. it works for me.. ^_^

Dude I had the same Problem. Flashed I've again with odyn and wiped everything 4-5times

I've given up... device will be sent back to service desk today for repair. Hopefully under waranty as I didn't root yet nor flashed a custom rom... I did, however, install CWM 6.0.0.8, but I guess that is not an issue (can anybody confirm?)

U need to change to stock recovery, my waranty was void and need to pay $170 due to there change to the new board.

Did I Brick It??

I tried using Odin to install a version of 4.1.2 on my s3.. It failed on odin.. I apparently had the wrong file now I cant get into download or recovery mode.. It starts for a second saying loading recovery with the samsung logo then all goes black .. Has some vibrations to it but cant turn in on or connect or even show battery charge on the screen.. Any help to get into any screen would help...

It sounds like a download mode jig should work if you go out and buy one. I'm probably not the 100% best source though.
And that may be a misspell, but there are no 4.1.2 ROMs available to flash in Odin.

No you will just have to wait for the OTA which will be a while. Scratch that there a few custom ROMS runing 4.1.2 you will have to check the forums for them.

I really have no Idea why it decided to let me back into download Mode.. But i"m DL the Verizon firmware right now and gonna reinstall.. 4.1.1. Use my Titanium to hopefully bring back what I can.. if not no big deal at least my phone isn't bricked.. I can get back into my phone now but the recovery mode still won't work..

As long as he can at least get to download mode his phone can fix it. Odin can also unbrick phones as long as download mode is functioning. Jtag is just unbricking via hardware and it should only be used as a last resort(hard brick). Download jig should only be used if Odin doesn't work. Even samsung has a tutorial on how to unbrick your phone via hardware.

I think you're confused. Flash an international ROM in recovery and see how that turns out (JTAG). So it would stand to reason had the Odin of an international ROM succeeded you would get same results. So then it failing would seem to be why it's only soft bricked.

Need help removing custom icon from start up screen on un rooted phone

I already posted this in the help section this morning and havent got any input on it yet. I need to return this phone asap, Verizon sent me a text this morning saying they have charged my account for un returned equipment.
I unrooted my old device that I am sending back to Verizon. I un-rooted it through super user. But when I restart the device its still showing the unlocked icon and the word custom below the samsung startup. What did I do wrong? It should have been cut and dry. Click un-root and you are done. I dont get it. I appreciate the help !

OK, what version are you running? 4.3 or 4.1? If you don't know boot into download mode and post what it says in the top left corner.
Additionally, next time you have a question that goes unanswered try to bump that thread. Sometimes it gets pushed down the list and it's hard to find, but it's perfectly fine bumping something once in a 24 hour period if you feel it hasn't been seen by someone who can help. It's better than starting a 2nd thread with the same question. Just for your information.

Thanks, Ill give it a try.
Again, I appreciate your help

I think it worked
The custom lock is gone on start up.
And when I go to more about phone and go to device status, it says official instead of custom.
