Story time: Just got new phone yesterday. Today after setting it all up I went and got a case. As I got home however the screen was unresponsive. Nothing worked.. so I had to do soft reset (vol down+ power). However after it rebooted I could not get rid of the lock screen. My thumbprint reader wouldn't unlock the device and none of the passwords I remembered unlocked the device. I had to do a factory reset (after 15 attempts). After a bit of rebooting I finally got to the google account login screen. I typed in my information but It says I changed my password within 24 hours so I am now locked out of my phone for the next 24 hours. I know the password. I have my sim for 2-step verification. But I am locked out.
I've read of bypass methods working for older samsung devices but is there one that could work with the s8+? I need to use my device for work. Am I SOL until tomorrow?
Sorry but even if there were a way to bypass FRP, we couldn't discuss it here because we'd have no way of knowing whether the person inquiring has an illicit reason for wanting to bypass.

I understand. I'm more sad than anything that Im having to wait another 24 hours before I can use my new phone. And @samcex, I'm skeptical of those youtube work-arounds and would rather be only separated from my phone for the temporary 24 hours and not 'reset my clock' by accident by attempting one of these :/

It worked for me on a Galaxy C5.
Same thing happened to me. Are you logging in with a Google account? If so, when you first ran the s8+ a notification was sent to the gmail account you signed in with initially on the s8+. Eve though you factory reset , for some reason (I think a sinister one) the phone remembers the account you first set up.
I think Samsung is into some serious spying **** and it's not cool! I hope I'm wrong about that and there is a logical explanation ad to why it remembers which account.
Anyway, that's what worked for me.

I wonder if reflashing the stock firmware from SamMobile via Odin would reset FRP? All in all, FRP is really good protection software IMO.
I would flash trough odin and try it again.
I had a similar issue with the s6 as far as I can remember, and google and samsung find device were off so no use.
SInce I had USB debugging on and approved in my laptop I was able to use ADB and manually delete the files were password is stored by commands. I was able to unlock the phone and didn't even need to reset my data.
I'm no big expert, so if I did get there, certainly someone more skilled is.
However this was done in a encrypted phone though, and things changed a little meanwhile..
I posted back then regarding this issue, if you search my old posts.

What a nonsence: "Spying"...
Every Android-phone is registered at Google (IMEI-nr and more info); so if you reset your phone (or flash FW), your IMEI will be registered again -> already registered, hmmm -> Factory Reset Protection activates (there's always a possibility it's a STOLEN phone)...
NO: FRP will never reset! When the ORIGINAL-owner registers his/her phone, you must ALWAYS enter your registered Google-account & PW after reset!

Oh.. my.. god That is really bad. Does it apply to every Android phone, or only Sammy ones?
Fortunately I asked the guy I bought the phone from to give me his Google password, and guess what? He did. There is still good people in this world..

I wish I could have gotten to the point of where it asked me for a password, but it was just stuck in bootloader.
FRP locked.
Warranty void.
Oh, and I made a mistake on the cost of repair, it wasn't 250....uit was £290.00...lol
Matt
I'd just remember my password..
It will work and warranty will be fine, You are not rooting this phone and flashing by stock firmware, give it a try and let us know, i did like this couple s8 and s8+ and nothing bad happen
I have a S8 (SM-G950U)... Not stolen. Clean.
I can provide IMEI# for anyone who can help me.
I have Odin v3.0 downloaded. I have downloaded combination files.. Adb files... Etc...
And I am nowhere closer to BYPASSING the Google activation. I have a cheap spare phone because I could not afford another high end phone.
PLEASE.HELP. Anyone. I can also pay a small amount if done by you. You can contact me at @

Hello everybody,
I usually find my answers in the specific phone related forums. But this time I'm stuck.
A friend of mine bought a Samsung Galaxy J7 (SM-J700F to be specific) in India. After using his phone there he came back home to Israel.
His phone didn't worked here for some reason and he went to a phone lab which flashed his ROM to stock Israel ROM.
They called him in the middle of the process and asked him what was his Google account thet he signed to while the first setup. Unfortunately, he cant remember his email address.
I took the phone to try bypassing the frp lock.
After a small search I realized I need an otg cable, which I bought.
I received the cable (1.5 mounths wait) and tried the otg cable method with no success.
After some experiments I successfully managed to open the settings menu. Pressed factory data reset and after a restart it stopped on recovery menu with the yellow message "dm-verity verification failed".
Well, this is annoying. I realized I need to flash the stock ROM again(Dated 01/16). So I did And the message dissapperd.
Back to the FRP lock issue. I did the process again and it didn't stopped in the recovery mode this time and I could see the Android logo with a little erasing.. Under it. Finally I thought.
I was wrong.
The FRP lock is still there! Dammit.
It is time to pull the big guns.
I thought I will flash the OLDER version of the stock ROM. Dated 09/2015 I Understand google updated the FRP lock protection on January 2016. Is the downgrade OK? I don't know if a downgrade is possible on Samsung phone.
And if you have an idea how to bypass this. Please share it.
Thank you so much!
Hello epopcop

Hi guys, I thought I just got a heck of a deal when I picked up a 64gb Note 5 for only $75 today off of the app LetGo (kinda like craigslist). The guy I bought it from was very nice and showed me that everything on the phone was in working order and let me use it myself to test it out. I gave him $75 and brought it home only to factory reset it and Google Account lock it in the process. I believe it is currently on 5.1.1, no idea what security update. I tried the FRP bypass that uses Realterm as well as the wifi disconnect method and neither worked. Realterm doesn't seem to be sending the commands to the device. It instead just displays the command I sent in green lettering and nothing else. I am really getting hopeless now. The guy I bought it from wont answer my texts or calls so i can't get his gmail account or anything. I doubt it is stolen or anything due to the fact he gave me the box with the charger, s pen tips, sim tool, and everything. And yes, I checked and the serial number on the box does match the one on the phone. I am about to attempt to use odin to update it to 6.0.1 and see if the Realterm method works then. Does anyone have any ideas? It is for Sprint if that matters. Is it possible to root or flash a custom rom or anything to get passed this? Any help will be so greatly appreciated. This day started out so exciting and now is truly disappointing.
Thanks guys.
Ok, I got it figured out! I had to use odin and downgrade to N920PVPU2AOI6. Then downgrade bootloader to SM-N920P_OK3_BOOTLOADER. Then was able to insert a flash drive with the Google Bypass USB OTG.apk app on it into my phone. It automatically opened My Files when inserted, then I installed to app and bypassed it. The only thing now is in Download mode it still says "FRP lock: On" Although it seems to be fully functional and currently has my google account on it.

Hello fellas,
I have a SM-G930F running Super Stock Rom 2.8, rooted with Magisk 12. This morning I was a little high and worried about getting my device stolen (my S6 was stolen at gun point three months ago), so I disabled OEM Unlock and USB debug in Developer mode, in a crazy attempt to increase the security and make things more difficult for the thief. WRONG! I have really screwed things up.
Now I get CUSTOM BINARY BLOCKED BY FRP LOCK and my device won't boot. The DOWNLOAD mode shows FRP LOCK is ON, this means I won't be able to flash anything with ODIN because it will fail at writing (that is what the FRP Lock is for). I am at work and my computer has the USB ports disabled, so there's nothing I can do until I get home.
This guy did the same stupid thing, except that he wasn't high
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/s7-edge-custom-binary-block-frp-lock-t3347688
I know that attempting a flash with ODIN can also cause this problem:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71692103&postcount=25
As soon as I get home, I will attempt the Smart Switch Emergency Recovery Function and I hope everything will be OK. Since it was my google account logged in, I won't have any problems with FRP (theoretically, it will ask me to login with the last account used on the previous configuration).
[UPDATE] There is this ADB thing I am completely unfamiliar with, not to mention I have disabled USB debug on the device prior to this. This file will disable FRP Lock but I don't know the procedure.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424958372
Any help will be much appreciated. This is my only phone and now I can't use it.
Just Flash with stock frimware to make it worked than it will stuck on google lock account than try to find ways on youtube.

Thanks for replying. Flashing stock firmware with FRP Lock will cause a write failure, are you sure about this? I will try it as soon as I arrive home. I didn't get that part where it will get stuck on google lock account, the device is mine and the latest google account used before was my personal google account. Could you please provide more details to complete the process?
I am also considering Smart Switch Emergency Factory Restore, that is my last shot before taking it to repair shop.
Dear sir kindly be sure the software is latest/i mean firmware
Hi,
had my phone locked too. Smart switch worked, aftter flashing twrp same problem. Got a factory rom from sammonbile and flashed cp, bl and ap with odin which brought it back.

I managed to solve it using Smart Switch, the firmware update did the trick. After restoring the system asked for last used credentials on previous configuration, like it was supposed to. Since it was my personal google account, there wasn't any problem with FRP Lock. Now I have installed TWRP and Super Stock Rom 2.8 again.
Leason learned, I will NEVER deactivate OEM Unlock again with a Custom ROM.
Thanks to everyone, this thread can be closed now.

Greetings, ever since i tried rooting my phone, i knew something went wrong (i used cf autoroot).
So the first thing i noticed, i was asked to reset the phone or something similar to that, meaning i would lose all my data.
I tried to find a workaround as this had never happened to me before while rooting a phone, and someone had said that i was supposed to download twrp
and change some partition and then change it back. I dont remember what else he mentioned and what exactly i tried doing, i realised it was formatted either way and i had to start fresh. As i setup my phone i went and switched the oem unlock back to "off", as i did not wanna attempt to root again, but i hadn't realised that my phone was infact rooted sucessfully, leading me to my first error after restarting. "Custom binary blocked by frp lock", with absolutely no access to recovery mode at all anymore. Again, trying to find a workaround, i download some stockfirmware that i atleast had hoped was the right one for my phone, after a couple failed attempts of flashing with odin, ( i had gotten various different error messeges on download mode screen such as (REV Check fail device 7 binary 0 and others witch i cannot remember), now im getting a new error screen, stating that an error has occured while updating the device software. I cant flash twrp recovery as the frp lock is on, and the only thing i can guess is that im flashing the wrong firmware, but i cant find a matching code at all.
Its the following: sm-g930fzkadbt
IMEI: 35214310282955
on the back of the phone it says uk yateley, although the phone was purchased in germany.
Im not sure what to do anymore, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
PS: I have managed to get back to the old error screen with the custom binary info, this time with bootloop, by checking the deviceinfo box on odin
Yep you've now learned the hard way not to mess about and read the proper guides.
Anyway "dbt" is just unbranded german firmware. Download UK "BTU" and flash with Odin, it's UK unbranded.
FRP lock means you'll need to unlock the phone with the google account and password that was on it before you started messing about with it.
If you don't know the google email and password you need to read up on how to bypass FRP lock and it's a nightmare.

Thanks for your reply, just a question, will any btu update work? Should i download latest android version btu firmware?
(Also yes, it was stupid of me to try and do it quick but i had rooted 3 different samsung galaxy phones in the past without issues, either i did something wrong or it took something way too specific to do the job, perhaps the phone's unrootable, but thank you either way) :fingers-crossed:

You'll likely only find the last version of BTU think it was August 2019. It isn't updated officially anymore but it'll be fine to use.

OK so i thought it worked but i can only enter recovery mode now and download mode, but cant actually boot the system, it just boots up the battery screen whenever i plug the charger, and never shows the actual battery info, just the thunder icon. Formatting from recovery mode doesn't help either (Note whenever i launch recovery mode it says installing update, then says no command and brings me to the recovery menu) Any ideas?
PS: It fixed itself. Sorry for the pointless edit.
Hello, I've tried all of the Youtube instruction videos and they never work for me. I got this phone from my now deceased Grandma and I want to use it as a secondary camera. I tried her email I had for her and everything, but nothing works. I Factory Reset the device first thing when I got it... and now it's just a paperweight stuck at the "Enter the previous google account screen."
I'm also open to trying one of these custom ROMs on here, they look cool.

Are you able to log into your grandmother's GMail ?
How many "reset" options do you have? Maybe you didn't do the most destructive reset you could have?
