Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 originally on EE and I had it unlocked to 3. I am unable to do an update as via WiFi and I am presented with the following message, "The operating system on your device has been modified in an unauthorised way. Try downloading software updates using Smart Switch on your PC or visit a customer service centre".
I have been told that the unlocking of the phone has resulted in me not being able to use smart switch and that the phone is no longer connected to the Samsung servers.
The build number is LRX22G.G920FXXU1AOCY
I am using Android 5.0.2. at the moment.
Help with this matter is appreciated.

I had posted to a few other area of the XDA forum but have nit been able to fix my issue and had mostly given up until I came across the great new assist idea so thought I would post one more time.
My issue is that I had been running running Cyanogenmod with CWM for some time without any trouble but came across an article that said to try TWRP so I gave it a shot and some how corrupted the software and now I am stuck in a boot-loop.
I can get into the factory download mode but the biggest issue is I cant get any of my laptops or my desktop to reconize the USB driver. I have removed Kies and reinstalled as well trying to use adb. I can get to the TWRP boot screen but then it just goes into boot-loop again.
Is there an area where I can fine listing of folks I can send it to for someone with the skill to give it a try??
Thanks,
John
Hi!
Please read the Purpose of XDA Assist from the sticky in this section...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2764768
All we can do for you here is direct you to places to find help, and as you are already familiar with your device section, and have already opened a thread there on this topic....there is nothing more we can do for you I'm afraid.
I will say, if you wish to take it to a service centre to be fixed, your local yellow pages can help with finding one.
Or you could try this guide for unbricking. I'm not sure it suits your situation, but you could ask in this thread before you try anything...
>*AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III*>*AT&T Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting*>*[HOW TO GUIDE] How To Unbrick AT&T I747 and I747M After 4.3 OTA
Good luck!
The screen was broken and I give it to a friend to change it, but when he fixed the phone lost the configuration. Just start in Samsung logo and restart in a bootloop. Not access to recovery mode, only download mode. Not recognized IMEI or s/n in kies.
I also try kingo and doesn't work, also several room stock for the model and always have two kind of error: secure check boot and secure check pit..
When I tried odin, the phone stopped and the process for flashing not advanced just get stuck. If I used a pit file for the phone have error. So I need help for this.
thanks
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Your device forum can be found here:
Samsung Galaxy Mega
I'd suggest you post your question in the dedicated Galaxy Mega q&a sub-forum here:

That way your question will be seen by folks who own your device and therefore are the most qualified to answer your question. In order to post in that section you'll need to create an XDA account, but that only takes a couple of minutes.
Good luck!

Hi team,
I have just successfully rooted my Galaxy S4 and wanted to continue with me new S6 Model SM-G9200. When pressing the buttons to go into download mode, the screen turns light blue with a message to "Unlock" the phone first and ask Samsung.com/cn (which of course is pointless). The phone has no Sim lock and I really wonder if anyone had the same problem and how to solve it.
Carrier is China Mobile Hong Kong.
Thanks for any advice you may have.
Cheers!

Sorry to hear about your trouble. If you bought your device from a China or HongKong carrier, it may have a locked bootloader. We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist, but fortunately there is an XDA area dedicated to the Samsung Galaxy S6 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6 which would be a good starting place.

"Root my phone" she says, "It will be great" she says...That is what my girlfriend asked me but now I have her phone bricked and can't get it running again. Have rooted multiple android devices before but this one has stumped me. Tried to get old 4.4.4 OS on it using Odin and now I cannot get any OS on it. Even the original stock OS I cannot get loaded on, which I would happily take.
Things you should know:
-Samsung Galaxy S5 Verizon edition
-Using Odin v 3.10.06
-Using md5 and .tar SM-G900V
-Phone can go into Recovery/Download Mode
-Odin sees phone and recognizes it, but when trying to load on OS it gives error failed.
Ask me for any other info, I would be happy to get it rooted, not rooted, custom ROM, just anything to get it running again.
Thank you very much.
