Hello,
I am currently in a situation where USB debugging was not enabled, CROM service status is set to "Locked". This is causing an issue on my International Galaxy S6 Edge (g9250) -- It is stuck in a boot loop and the android OS that was previously installed was wiped on accident through the stock android recovery mode.
I am unable to flash TWRP recovery to the phone, I am unable to use Odin to flash a stock ROM image to the phone, or perform any data transfer between my Windows machine to the phone. Now I am sure this is because I never enabled developer mode and turned on USB debugging, and also because this CROM service is set to lock. When I attempt to sideload using ADB I get error:closed. When using the Skipsoft Unified Android Toolkit any task performed stops at: "Waiting for USB debugging".
Is there any solution for this? I've looked all over the internet and haven't been able to solve my issue -- I'm stuck at a perpetual boot loop because there is no Android OS on the device's partition, and also am unable to flash the stock ROM using ODIN or sideload using ADB.
Is there is a way to turn on USB debugging when stuck in a bootloop? Or a way to disable CROM service on the phone to be able to flash or transfer files?
As of right now the device is completely useless and I have been researching for the past 5 days
Any help is very appreciated, please let know if there is more information needed.

Android users need help with my phone! I am trying to manually turn on USB debugging (to access files on phone through update thru ADB mode in recovery options, I can install the driver for the phone but won't work until USB debugging is turned on) while my phone cannot boot into the OS. Is there a secret way to turn on USB debugging through recovery mode? (I do not want to wipe the data, and phone unfortunately is not rooted)
USB debugging has nothing to do with adb via recovery. It is an Android only setting. Recovery cannot use it and does not need it.
Adb doesn't work in stock recovery. I wrote a useful thread for people who are new to adb, as you are. You can get to it via the link in my signature. The thread is called "adb and fastboot. What isn't?".
It teaches you how to set it up and use it correctly.

My main issue is that I am trying to retrieve my non backuped data on the phone and the phone itself will not boot into the Android OS.
I have looked into unlocking the fastboot/bootloader but it will wipe the data which would be pointless.
The data on the phone is more critical to me than the phone itself (and yes I was dumb enough to not back it up, didn't expect a flagship phone less than a year to crash on me, but I have learned for next time).
I am looking for any possible way to retrieve the data. I have tried to access the phone from the computer but I cannot access it since USB debugging is turned off and the phone is not rooted or doesn't have any other modifications.
Is there any way at this point I can retrieve the data off the phone with a non bootable OS and locked and stock Android OS?
Y is it non bootable?

You are stuck. Stock recovery, locked bootloader, and OS will not boot. As RootSU mentioned, USB debugging has nothing to do with this. Stock recovery will not connect to adb.
Unless you can get the phone to boot looks like data is lost. Sorry.

Expect it from every electronic device. Especially expensive and complicated ones.
So I actually had warranty left from Google (bought directly from Google) and was going to RMA it but I decided not to because the data on there is important to me and worth more than the phone itself (yes I should of backuped everything but oh well what can I do now). And I bought a new phone so this Nexus 5 will be my little side project to try and revive it; somehow.
I will try to keep going at it, I have small programming/coding skills but it would be nice to find a way to open up the USB debugging option on the locked stock phone somehow that doesn't bootup.
Any suggestions on where I should start to start testing different "procedures"?
I have an HTC One m8 that is stuck on Bootloader. It is an unlocked bootloader with S-Off. I had CWM but I installed stock recovery back onto the phone before flashing a stock kernel (I was trying to make the phone look untampered with before I turned it over to my provider), the Kernel came with a sha1 and was from a trusted website and I am 100% sure it was the right compatible Kernel I'm pretty sure I just had a bad flash.
I have tired the following to get the phone past the bootloader:
1. Fastboot USB Mode --> Try to get ADB to recognize the device --> Debugging mode isn't on (obviously) --> ADB can't recognize the device.
2. Use AndroidSDKSlim/ Android SDK tools / Android Utility to remotely turn on Debugging mode (I got nowhere with this)
3. Attempted to use PdaNet to remotely turn on Debugging mode (got nowhere)
4. HTC Sense doesn't even know whats going on
I just need to get TWRP or CWM or litearlly Any recovery installed. That's all I need, I can do everything from there. I can't remotely install a recovery via adb because adb can't recognize my device because I can't turn Debugging mode on because my device is softbricked!!! Gahhhh. I haven't been able to come up with a way to remotely enable debugging mode or to get adb to recognize my device.
Any ideas/comments/suggestions would be heavily appreciated - I've resourced from every relevant thread I could find. Posting here was a last resort I try to fix things on my own but I'm too many days into this with no results please anybody.

Hi, I own a samsung galaxy s7, running Superman-ROM and using TWRP recovery. Recently I was mucking around with some friends and decided it would be a good idea to install a ****ty game as firmware (through Lucky Patcher). After asking me to reboot I did and it is now soft-bricked. It says "custom binary blocked by FRP lock". The problem is that both OEM unlock & USB debugging were off, so I cannot connect to my PC. The only thing I can access is Download mode, but I am not able to enter recovery mode to wipe it. I have tried reinstalling both TWRP & Samsung's default ROM through Samsung Odin (I do have USB drivers) and they both fail. Is this fixeable or would I have to give it to a professional?
Thanks in advance, Lucien
This once happened to me and I had to end up wiping everything on my phone with Odin.
A customer brought this HTC ONE XL to me for flashing (the software are not complete, many apps are missing) and when I put it to recovery mode I found out that it have a TWRP custom recovery and I also found out that the bootloader is unlocked and above it is wriiten "TAMPERED".
The issue now is that my system (window 10) could not detect the phone. If I connect the phone while is on, it will be charging, but if I connect it via fastboot, it will not recognize it and if I wanted to on the debug mode it will show, "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped".
Please somebody help me on what next I will do to be able to flash this phone!
Thanks!

Dear Android Geek,
My Verizon ellipsis 8 qtaqz3 tablet is bricked, and I can't find the original or new Firmware/ROM or anything to flash. It does not have ADB debugging enabled either.
Please share the original Firmware, if you have, and please kindly help solve the problem. Thank you in advance.
I did the factory reboot and I wiped the cache, but it still boots only to a black screen after the ellipsis screen.
and I don't know how to enable USB debugging.
USB-debugging ( AKA ADB ) can only get enabled when phone works properly, means before it becomes bricked for whatever reason.
So you even can't reflash phone's Stock ROM via ADB Sideload method.
You have to restore phone's Stock ROM by means of a suitable Flash Tool.
