I did a factory reset, not knowing that I tripped the FRP, I am stuck in the wizard. Is there a way to bypass this by reinstalling the android OS or anything else?

Hi,
If you are referring to lock screen security password, sorry, but a factory reset or reflashing firmware are the only ways to bypass it. Both do wipe all your data. That's the whole point of the security.
Good luck!
Hi guys.
I've got a phone in to reset form a customer who thinks the device was compromised. I usually work on PCs so wanted to check with you guys.
The phone will of course be getting a factory reset.
However what about checking if the firmware has been compromised. I could install a 3rd party firmware but not sure granting root would be a good idea for this user. I think stock firmware is best but wondering on best way to check its not been tampered with.
Edit Sorry just realised I missed the most important bit off,
Phone is a Galaxy S6 Edge+ running 6.0.1
Which model?
Can you try to reset it with the phones software?
This should be the most safe procedure.
The phone has been reset using the setting menu "Factory reset". Really what I'm wondering is what if the firmware has been compromised

I thought that reflashing the stock firmware with the Samsung app is the best and safest way. This procedure should be the best method
So, I was dumb and thought some pictures and videos of the kids birthday were backed up before I did a factory reset (was trying to fix battery drain issue). I have a G955u model s8 + that had the oreo update ota. I tried some recovery software but it says I need to root the phone, which I can't seem to find a way to do. Do I have any options at getting to this data? Thanks for the help!
Most file recovery programs are fake. Your device was probably factory encrypted and therefore unrecoverable. Rooting is what 99% of the threads on this forum are about but that will require another factory reset and data recovery would be impossible even if the device wasn't encrypted.
Hey peeps,
I have a SM-G930F based in Aus and I can't seem to get around the FRP lock. My gf forgot the login details.
I cant seem to get around the FRP lock at all, tried flashing TWRP, tried flashing stock firmware from sammobile, nothing seems to get around it.
Anyone got any ideas?
Flashing won't get rid of it, its entire purpose is to persist through attempts of factory reset.
You'll have to use an FRP bypass exploit, the older version of Android the more exploits exist, so your best bet is to try flash MM or N via Odin and try one of their working exploits. But if the device is the latest version of Nougat or Oreo, it will likely block your downgrade attempt.

Does this also apply when rooting + flashing a custom rom?
To my knowledge, yes. FRP is part of firmware and storage that users can't access or reach, which is why it persists through everything.
Hi All
I have an S7 Exynos with latest Magisk installed and everything has been working flawlessly till I decided this early morning, for not any particular reason(except my increasing amount of grey hair ), to lock the "developer options". I think I have done the same maybe a couple of years ago though cannot remember how I had solved it.
Obviously my phone was instantly locked.
Would someone be able to link a good working solution with being able to keep data and apps? I am a bit desperate as my work is starting again tomorrow.
Thanks a lot.
look at frp bypass
Costum binary blocked by FRP lock is a protection, whene you do a factory reset from recovery. the only way you get this message is with odin.
this one works for me on s7, s7 edge and s6 tab
Thanks @Dagobert
I will have a look at it now and see if it is not too scary. See my S7 FRP

Do you have acces to the phone?

If you have acces to the phone then backup your data do a factory reset. Then you can flash whatever you want. Frp lock is a google protection with a google account. Whene you do a factory reset from settings you wipe the frp.

I have access to the phone via PC/Odin only. No booting as per image above. I wand to keep Data and Apps
I assume I have to flash stock with home csc to be able to enter the phone again? Then root again, if I so wish?
Yup. Maybee a long shot but try Flashing your former firmware with Odin, using HOME_CSC. I think thats the solution

Help! How to flash without losing data?
Good day! My phone got stuck on breathing Samsung logo after my phone updates. Now the only option I have in mind is to restore factory data. But I have some important files in my phone that is very essential in my work. I know I have read that...
forum.xda-developers.com
hmm., done the flashing with the files plus home csc and it asks for password, which I have entered without success. I know the password and it justs does not accept it.
See the factory reset warning and the FRP lock still being on now.
I'm desperately trying to avoid wipping data and apps.
edit: unfortunately I had to format/reinstall as I could not find a workable option.
