Hi all,
Tried figuring out how to unroot the note 7 but no luck
samsung plus is detecting it and i cannot download updates
I only rooted so i can unlock the phone
any help?

Launched ODIN and did only AP first, phone crashed and had a strange error screen. Then did the other three and the phone asked for a factory reset then started working.
The unlock STAYED
The device is able to get updates and everything seems to work fine including Samsung Pay
Only issue is that the hotspot does not show in the settings at all. All hotspot apps fail.
Also, does anyone know if the unlock will hold after returning to stock? Considering it's probably a soft unlock.
I want to be able to use all samsung services normally. as well as download updates and install them.
Thanks!

So, I've done this before, and I've never bricked a device until now.
I tried installing a custom rom for my Galaxy S3 on Verizon, but when I restarted, it says this:
System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest Verizon Wireless store for help.
I can't get into clockwork, or any bootloader. Any attempt to do anything brings this screen up.
Now, I can get into the Odin downloader. (Power, volume down and home). But, I can't figure out how to get a Rom to load. This is where I am stuck. I have downloaded a few roms, all stock, but none of them want to be recognized. I have no idea where to go. I've been downloading stuff for 5 hrs and nothing has worked, so now Im going to the forumns. Any help is appreciated.
I have the Verizon i-535 Galaxy SIII.
You did not brick your phone you failed to unlock your bootloader. There are 2 guides in the android dev section for rooting.

Odin back to stock and next time after rooting make sure to use EZUnlock 1.2 to unlock the bootloader BEFORE loading a ROM
Hi guys, I'm a tech at Sprint of recently and I had a customer come in several days ago with a GS5 with its fingerprint scanner getting an error message prompting the user to restart the device every time we tried to access the it from the settings. Also it doesn't work when trying to unlock through the lock screen forcing us to use the alternative password. The phone is on 4.4.4 right now. Not sure if its nk4 or not.
What we tried:
factory wipe
flashing 4.4.4 nk4
I haven't found much documentation about this issue on the internet. Any help will be appreciated.
Hi there I've been away from rooting for a bit and i have been trying to root a broken s7 edge more recently. Its got 6.0.1 stock on it. It all works except the volume up button. I seem to be able to access the phones files and sd card in windows. I can also flash 6.0.1 it seems by forcing it into download mode. But its still stuck on FRP and i can't find any way to unlock the bootloader to install custom software. I've been trying all the tutorials i can find but none work. Is this Samsung patching these security holes and so they no longer work? The password Is unknown for the Google account and it's not blacklisted or anything like that I've not used the SIM in any tutorial though. So is this doable or is it impossible at present? It all seems a lot more secure since my last root :s Thanks

Try this for bypassing Factory Reset Protection(FRP)

Or this

As for rooting the device, there aren't many methods that work on lollipop and newer firmwares other than maybe trying Kingroot and Kingoroot or flashing TWRP(not an option for you since you have a locked bootloader) for your model number then flashing Super or Magisk.

I've got an SM-A515U (Verizon) and have been looking all over for a working FRP bypass. The only way to install apps is through galaxy store. I can't use Alliance Shield to enroll the phone-- not just because Samsung removed it from their store but also Smart Switch isn't allowing for apps to fully transfer over from other devices or from an SD card for some reason; it gets hung up on the final stage and doesn't finalize. Oh and there isn't a Samsung Cloud option to use the restore backup feature either. I tried flashing stock firmware and combination hoping that would work but it doesn't matter what I do I can't seem to get it unlocked. Which leads me here. Any ideas?
I recently got a new phone from the Troomi carrier. They sell a Samsung A32 5G phone and it is very locked down. I have done some digging and managed to enable USB debugging, but I can't manage to root it. I can install apps, but the Knox app control quickly disables it. The app is still installed, but can't be seen without adb. I have managed to rename the package name for an app to that of an app that is allowed. That worked until my mom discovered this and deleted the app from my phone and I haven't been able to recreate it. I also can't enter download mode or install a custom bootloader. Factory resetting is also blocked.
Any help is apprechiated.
