Hey guys, when the nougat was online, i flashed the btu version on my phone, i had some issues with it so i downgraded to MM but since then some apps such as: Samsung Members, Samsung Pay won't uninstall and the phone freezing alot and sometimes it gets extremly hot ( i can't even touch it ). and disabling app drawer option isn't availble anymore.
my question is how to get rid of these apps and restore my phone as i got it the first time ?
Flash Marshmallow again with ODIN, but use CSC instead of HOME_CSC, that will restore the phone to factory settings

Hi, I bought a Samsung S6 Edge used.. It was previously rooted and the knox counter was tripped...
I'm having some serious issues with it. From apps/google services to crash. It was previously rooted so I flashed the stock firmware on the phone. Even when I setup the phone (language and google accounts) some services crash... I can't recieve OTA Updates anymore because the status is set to custom and Triangle away does not work on S6's. I can't replicate anything to make a certain app crash, it's just random.. I need your help because i tried everything I could..
Stuff I did:
Flashed stock firmware (5.0.2)
Flashed an Update (5.1.1)
Factory reset and cache reset in boot loader.

Hello. A few days ago I 've tried to flash a samsung galaxy note 3 with odin because the phone wouldn't boot to android anymore. I downloaded the stock rom for the specific model from sammobile and tried to flash it twice and the process was finished successfully. The problem is that not only the smartphone had theexact same problem but i coul see that nothing was erased. ihad changed the name on the internal memory and even that remained the same. i could see it from my pc. i also noticed the same problem with a samsung galaxy s5 that worked but it's speaker didn't play any sound. i had changed the speaker before flashing it but no luck. It wasn't the speakers fault. All the users files, contacts and settings remained unharmed after three completed flashing processes. I have read from the internet that this problem exists because of the knox security that samsung installed on it's smartphones.
So my question is if there is a way to completely wipe of the rom memory before installing it the firmware from the beginning when i flas a new model of samsung smartphones?

Greetings and welcome to assist. If you want to return your phone to factory condition the easiest way is to use kies/smartswitch emergency firmware recovery
Good Luck

Hi guys, id like to ask for some help because i tried flashing the oficial room again and this won't solve my problems.
when the android 7.0 version was released for my s6 it released first in india, so i went to sammobile.com and downloaded that oficial firmware from there
it worked just fine untill i needed a screen replacement and sent my fone over to samsung itself here in Brasil. When it came back the ppl at samsung installed
the official brazilian 7.0 that was already avaliable at the time. that's when i began to have some issues. Apps like samsung pay and s health won't launch because my phone thinks it's rooted. when i try to open such apps i get a system message : for your safety this app cannot be launched in a rooted phone (translated from portuguese). I don't really care much about s health, but my internet banking app keeps blocking my bank account password because it thinks my phone is rooted. what could i do to restore my phone back to it's factory specs? or end with the problems with the "fake rooting"
thanks for your time!
I have an issue where I just purchased Samsung Galaxy S8 plus unlocked SM-G955U. There is a Verizon boot logo when it starts up, and the Verizon bloatware apps cannot be removed and the phone refuses to update to Android 8.0 or the current Samsung Experience software. I was hoping to flash the software to the G955U1 firmware.
I have installed Odin and tried everything. When I run the software it closes the window and my phone reboots with no change.
I am at a loss. I just want to update my phone and remove the HORRIBLE Verizon trash apps.
Good Morning Everyone
As the title suggests, i am looking to return my S22 Ultra back to stock.
i was on beyond rom for a bit, but too many apps complaining that my device was rooted has forced my hand to return my device back to stock once again.
I flashed the stock rom via odin, then locked my bootloader and wiped all data.
However i am still getting messages that my device is modifed.
Anyone got any ideas how to can truely return to full stock?
Thanks in advanced.
And yes i did do a search on the internet before asking, but i have been unable to find any advice outside of what i have already done.
happend to me, too. But only on the latest firmware. When I flash an older firmware, it won't appear. But after updating again to the latest ROM the message appears
Cheers mate. I'll give that a go.
Also note that if the device was rooted then you triggered the Knox flag and that one CANNOT BE RESET, it's an "efuse" (a hardware component that once changed it's state can only be reset by replacing it, i believe you need to replace the entire motherboard for that).
So, if the application checks the Knox status it will fail.
Here are a few apps that i know that will not work anymore :
- Knox itself (and any app that uses the Knox library/API )
- Samsung Pay
- Samsung Health
- Secure Folder
A few years ago I also had a banking app that failed to worked with a Knox flag triggered (on a Note 8), but after an update it allowed me to use the phone as long as i didn't have it rooted.
