hello,
i have a problem with my s6 edge since last week.
i gave my phone to someone and when i got it back the sim card was not working,(i made some research and i noticed that the Efs was damaged). i then tried to use Kies to restore the phone. After the restoration (Android 6.0.1) , the phone tried to boot and i got this error: " dm-verity verification failed, need to check DRK first... ". i then began my research again and i founded one solution on youtube " a file that i had to flash via odin " . I then decided to try it out , and when i tried it failed, i receive that error: " Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock " . Now i have a phone that i can not use, please help me .

hi i tried rooting my samsung galaxy s5 model number g900w8. Hovewer , once i root the phone i get a message saying " factory mode is on , turning wifi off " . The phone then restarts .
I saw some other forums where they had commented about turning off the factory mode in the device via root explorer by writing a ON in the factorymodeapp file inside the efs folder and some talks about writing original firmware. Both these methods did not work for me.
Also if i try to open up the efs folder, i see that is empty. however use of *#06# still gives me the IMEI number.
can anyone help me here?

hello , i just flashed an official rom on my samsung galaxy grand 2 using odin . everything went correctly but i'm stuck in a boot loop .
the rom i installed was official which i downloaded for the specific device . my device had android 4.3 installed but i flashed an updated rom with android 4.4.2 (i did this update because some settings like security , VPN etc were inaccessible on the device , on opening those "Unfortunately , setting stopped " dialogue box kept popping up) . my phone does go into recovery mode and download mode .
i have already wiped data/ factory reset my phone , and wiped cache partition but it does not boot . it is not a rooted device so it does not show advance settings in recovery mode . tried re-flashing but does not work . i also would like to know if my warranty is void . please help !!! :crying: :crying: :crying:

Hey folks!
A few days ago, i rooted my Samsung Galaxy A5 (Sm-a500fu) with Kingroot, which was no problem.
Yesterday i decided to install TWRP as custum recovery. I downloaded it, and flashed it with Flashify. The really next boot got blocked with the error message: "Custom binary blocked by reactivation lock; secure fail: recovery". The only avaiable thing was download mode.
So I looked for a solution on google and all it was saying was to flash the stock rom again. I tried to flash it with Odin3 but right after the start i got a "FAIL!" in Odin.
Now I don't know what to do because I don't want to lose the data (esp Images) on my phone. I found a solution that could work: Download a "Pit-File", hit the repartition checkbox in odin and then start.
After that, the other problem persists: The reactivation lock is still there
Is anyone able to help me?

I recently bought a SM-A9000
It was originally from China and then sold by someone in Indonesia.
During firmware update from lollypop to marshmallow, the update failed, causing the phone to stuck on bootloop, and now I can only access 2 screen : the screen saying "an error has occured while updating the device software use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch pc software" ; and ODIN mode screen
I tried the recovery function in smart switch but it failed. I download every ROM version from sammobile and flash it through odin, but it also failed.
I tried 2 region ROM, the CHC (China open) and TGY (Hong kong). It stuck on 2 different point. With the CHC, it stucked during "aboot.mbn" with the my phone screen saying "FRP is enabled, not allowed download non-FRP aboot binary". With the TGY, it passed the "aboot.mbn" but stucked during writing the ROM saying file is too larze, ext4 invalid.
Here is some data on the odin mode screen :
Binary status : Original
CROM Service : unlock
FRP lock : ON
What should I do? I am desperately in need of help... Thank you..
