I flashed the proper stock image to my soft bricked s7. Odin went through the process and ended with this error: "Device does not have drk (device root key), contact to sw pl. Please flash ENG binary then install drk." Can anyone advise what steps I can take to install this ENG binary and then install drk?

I fixed this by installing the factory binary, then flashing the proper rom, rooting and installing twrp and the usual stuff.
Where have you found the 930f factory binary?

So I have a S7 I rooted and I had a problem with a ROM so I flashed Stock ROM but then it said a DRK Error. I fixed it flashing TWRP and encryption disabler. But my IMEI was gone so I took in to a service center where they reset it. They reset it and got the same DRK Error so I brought it home to flash TWRP again, but then I realized FRP Lock was on from resetting and now I can't flash any custom binaries and my phone still can't boot. (Situation : No boot, No IMEI, No Custom Binary Flashing, Yes Recovery and Download mode access) What can I do?

FRP usually has to do with your google account password........
Accidentally deleted all files(system,efs etc. ) using twrp recovery. I didn't backed up before formatting all things. So I made backup of everything like system , efs etc. From another J700F mobile And restored in my j700F mobile.After that restoration I'm getting error of DRK not found / dm - verity check failed / flash eng binary then drk . My phone is in warranty but because of root knix tripped and warranty void.any solution ?
I got my real imei back but While dialing *#06# Imei shown but S/N not showing. Help Me !

Dear Friend,
I used smart switch which didn't fixed my problem. I also downloaded latest firmware from sammobile and flashed with odin but this method also failed to fix my problem.
I think Combination files can solve my problem but I am unable to find latest combination files (Marshmallow)
I think there is no solution for my problem

Yes, but did you actually try this firmware. This is not standard firmware.
What build is your firmware?

Are you able to extract the contents of the md5 with 7zip?
If so just remove the md5 extension.

Hi
I tried to change my firmware by flashing a stock firmware from the STOCK FIRMWARE thread.
I got an error msg saying Custom Binary Blocked by FRP and I am not able to boot up now.
Before you ask me
The phone's model is G955-F (it is network locked to 3IE)
I have tried to restore using smasung smart switch it gives me the same error
I have tried used odin to restore the stock firmware which was in device before.
Can someone please help me?

That's probably because you hadn't unlocked your bootloader. The Odin restore method will work, I have done it myself, make sure you select all of the files required in Odin. Sammobile have the 3IE firmware, get version G955FXXU1AQDD

This could sound like a really dumb suggestion but remove your google account and retry. Could it be the factory reset protection?

I returned it, will be getting a refund and will buy another one
I have the exact same problem with my SM-G955F
It has FRP lock on it
It originally could boot up, but then the google screen would ask for a password
I then went to try and flash TWRP on it which did not work
I then tryed to install the samsung stock firmware for android 8.0.0 which brings up "Custom Binary(RECOVERY) Blocked by FRP Lock"
I dont know the password, so could not enter one
I only have access to the Download screen on the phone
Flashed AP "AP_G955FXXU1CRB7_CL12993656_QB17006520_REV00_user_low_ship_meta.tar.md5"

What can i do to remedy this ?
Hi guy I am panicking here I accidentally wiped everything from my samsung note 9 and there is no OS on the phone. I tried to flash older firmware but Odin is stuck at recovery and the phone shows a red line saying "SW REV. CHECK FAIL(BOOTLOADER) DEVICE: 6, BINARY:5

The firmware that you flashed has a lower binary than the firmware that you had on the device before you modified it. You need to flash a firmware that has the same binary as what you had before you modified the device, or you need to flash a firmware that has a higher/newer binary than what you had.
See where the error says that your device is binary 6 but the firmware that you flashed has binary 5? You need a binary 6 or higher firmware. You can identify the binary by looking at the 5th character from the right end of the firmware build number.

Be aware, once you flash a firmware that upgrades your device binary to a higher binary, you can not go back to the lower binary. A lot of times, flashing a firmware that upgrades the binary also upgrades the bootloader to a more secure bootloader that can't be unlocked, this kills virtually any chance of rooting the device or flashing TWRP custom recovery and/or custom ROMs. Then you're stuck with a device that you can't modify the way you want.

Have you used TWRP to create a android backup of your stock ROM after you got it fixed? If not, do so, then store a copy of the backup on a PC or USB flashdrive, external sdcard, etc.. That backup can be used to restore your device, if needed.
hello, my problem is with my A12 (A125M) so he stuck in "an error has occurred while updating the device software.Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software" i tried much things and still not working, also i tried too flash the stock rom i got this error "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [vbmeta] Fused 3 > Binary 2 RP check error : vbmeta , if someone know how to fix it please comment, thanks.
