Galaxy s7 BRicked need help - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hello i have bricked my Glaxy s7 the only thing i can do is get into download mode i am trying to download the firmware for my device but do not know what Region to download my Device model # SM-G930F its an International unlocked phone .
Im trying to get the software from Sam mobile but need Region
Based on the fact that the engravings on my phone are in Spanish , I am fairly certain my phone is intended for Latin America.

You can use any region as long as it's the same device model, and make sure it's nougat (because downgrading is impossible).

HELP!! Custom Binary Blocked by FRP

Hi

I have tried to restore using smasung smart switch it gives me the same error
I have tried used odin to restore the stock firmware which was in device before.
Can someone please help me?

That's probably because you hadn't unlocked your bootloader. The Odin restore method will work, I have done it myself, make sure you select all of the files required in Odin. Sammobile have the 3IE firmware, get version G955FXXU1AQDD

This could sound like a really dumb suggestion but remove your google account and retry. Could it be the factory reset protection?
Sent from my SM-T810 using Tapatalk
I returned it, will be getting a refund and will buy another one
I have the exact same problem with my SM-G955F
It has FRP lock on it
It originally could boot up, but then the google screen would ask for a password
I then went to try and flash TWRP on it which did not work
I then tryed to install the samsung stock firmware for android 8.0.0 which brings up "Custom Binary(RECOVERY) Blocked by FRP Lock"
I dont know the password, so could not enter one
I only have access to the Download screen on the phone
Flashed AP "AP_G955FXXU1CRB7_CL12993656_QB17006520_REV00_user_low_ship_meta.tar.md5"
ON PHONE SCREEN IN DOWNLOAD MODE: KERNEL REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE:11, BINARY:1
What can i do to remedy this ?

The issue is you turned of oem unlock which is always needed. I think only option is flashing of stock rom through odin no other option i know of. i guess its hardbricked mostly.
Download the latest samfirm tool available on xda.
Open the samfirm tool. Enter model and region. Tick Auto and binary nature.
Click on Check update. It will show the latest firmware available on samsung server.
Then click on download. It will download four file full firmware. Then flash it through odin.
You need a strong internet connection to download the file.
All the best.

Simply install TWRP using odin. And flash hyperion v2 rom alongwith fix file. I hope it'll sort out ur volte problem as well you'll get a high quality rom experience for this model. I am using the same in India.
Samfirm is completely garbage.use updato from play store, it's called android updates after u search for updato.download and Search up your firmware. Copy to computer and unzip then reboot to download mode.load firmware into AP slot. Tick nand erase and reboot. Begin flash of firmware. When it reboots u are fully stock. Start over, flash twrp then whatever ROM and root etc. Samfirm never even works. Don't waste your time.

How to flash via TWRP a stock ROM in my problematic phone

Hi everyone.
I am facing a LOT of troubles with my phone (as stated in this thread).
Anyway now I have again unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP 3.1.1, rooted but I have a strange ROM installed by a service tech shop after the phone became unusable.
The problem is that this ROM does not show an update option in settings so I am stuck at 1st march security patches.
Here attached my actual Build Prop file.
The ROM seems to be a BLN-L21C900B300 (never heard of this and not even found on Firmware Finder) and the fingerprints show a "test keys" rom:
device: HWBLN-H
Display: BLN-L21C900B300
Fingerprint: Huawei/generic_a15/generic_a15:7.0/NRD90M/jslave04010520/:user/test keys​
If I try to flash via TWRP a BLN-L21C432B360 (which was my previous stock ROM) it does not work and on TWRP appears the following:
......
write radio image
check_write_data_to_partition
write data error
E; unknown command (errno)
update_huawei_pkg_from_ota_zip: update package from zip failed
updater process ended with ERROR: 7
error installing zip file '/external_sd/update_full_BLN-L21_hw_eu_zip'​
I cannot flash the FULL zip file with the core of the ROM but I can luckily flash the data, so I could get back Radio Fm and possibility to install themes....
To make the story short: is there someone who knows what this error is? Maybe I can get a solution.
Moreover: maybe this strange "device: HWBLN-H Display: BLN-L21C900B300 Fingerprint: Huawei/generic_a15/generic_a15:7.0/NRD90M/jslave04010520/:user/test keys" is preventing me to flash?
Changing build prop file can be useful?
Thanks to all.

U should use dload method

I forgot to mention: dload not working. Always error.
That's why I think TWRP is the only solution
B300 (at least for the BLN-L24) is the first of two update packages to rollback from Nougat to MM. The first update will take you from the latest firmware to B300 and then the second update will complete the rollback to your device's stock firmware.
dload this package to complete the rollback then do a factory reset and wipe cache partition in stock recovery. After that download and update to the latest firmware and proceed to unlock BL and flash twrp and you should be good to go.

but you mean that I have to downgrade from Nougat to MM again?
And before doing it I have to flash the stock recovery?
My phone was, we can say, flashed in some way by the tech shop to this strange version of Nougat and with the "test keys" fingertips.
With the files you provide I should "dload"?
I do not understand your post.
please explain better.
Thanks.

My phone was, we can say, flashed in some way by the tech shop to this strange version of Nougat and with the "test keys" fingertips. Like I said they did half of the rollback process which is why you are on B300 firmware that you cant find available for download

Download the zip I linked above from Huawei website. Extract the update.app and put it in dload folder on your external SD card and force flash (power vol - vol +). It will flash all the stock images and return your phone to factory firmware android 6.0 EMUI 4.1. It might bootloop after this but booting into stock recovery (power vol +) and perform factory reset followed by wipe cache partition will get you booting. Then you can OTA update to latest firmware and root again.
Well, I will try this weekend. Now the risk to stay without phone during working days is too high
Ah, BTW, thanks for suggestion.

Well, I changed my mind and tried anyway now. I was just too curious.
result:
Software install failed.
Incompatibility with current version.
please download the correct update package.​

I agree 100%
Since you have nothing to lose right now just try the whole rollback process. Here is the update that the service center used to get your phone to BLN-L21C900B300. You can try flashing that again through dload or skip to trying to flash this. There are two different firmwares listed as the 2nd part of the rollback and you already said the last one I gave you failed so give this one a shot. Let me know how it works out for you:good:

Have you tried the Team MT huawei multitool to flash the images from the firmware? Use the Huawei update extractor tool to get the boot,cust,recovery,system and userdata.img from the firmware you tried to flash and then put them in the unbrick folder in the multi tool. Put phone in fastboot and run the Multi tool and use the unbrick option. I know your phone is not bricked but this way it will flash all 5 images in order through fastboot. You could actually try and flash the most current firmware with this method and avoid having to system update from MM to Nougat.
yes, exactly, I am trying with multitool . another bro suggested me how to do it even if with a slightly different method.
"You need flash the oeminfo via multi tool and then same firmware file for your current version via dload. It should be fixed".
WTF....never sweat so much for a phone. And never had those problems flashing samsung... and I was flashaholic
Yes, I have learned so much about this phone and the flashing/brick/unbrick process in the last 2 weeks.

When I go to multitool "unbrick", it asks for custom.img, but in no update.app of my firmware is present.
Moreover now I just can enter erecovery. It does not boot. I can enter fastboot only. Multitool is now not recognizing the phone. Do you know how to proceed?
I put in dload the firmware .app, but it says "software install failed"
Pheew...I managed to have again that fuc..ng C900B300.
I entered fastboot and repeated the unlock bootloader process. That way the phone got a hard reset and started over. Believe me when I say I tried all the methods I knew.
I think there is something locked somewhere in my partitions (I am not an expert of course) that prevent me to do deep modifications. Now I just can TWRP data but not the core. And again I have no update option. I think I am stuck forever at this stage with 1st march patches and nougat 7.0.
I do not think I will be ever able to have Oreo.
Amen. I am really tired to waste my time with this s**t. Next phone will be again a Samsung or One+. Full stop. Stop chinese brands.
Where are you located, Europe?
Yes
Ok bro I really hope this is it. Full firmware BLN-L21C432B151. I already downloaded it myself and checked with extractor tool it has all the images you need. Since you have fastboot back use the multi tool unbrick again and now that you have all the necessary images cross your fingers it will work.
And I agree with you about the phone. Made up my mind im giving this turd to my sister and getting the OP5T in a few weeks.
Thanks. I will do it this weekend. Today I spent 5 hours to get back my configuration after the hard reset with the apps I use for work. Cannot risk again tomorrow.
In another thread, sashank suggested to change OEM file because probably phone doesn't recognize the firmware I want to install.
It didn't work and lead me to start from scratch with the same strange build.
I will try your method but first I must study better the procedure because I don't want to mess up everything and risking to throw the phone in the garbage (where it belongs in the end...).
Thanks.

Honor8 won't boot anymore, not flashed

I have problem with my Honor8. Everything is original (never flashed a firmware). The phone ran out of battery and now it won't boot. When the honor logo starts spinning, it gets stuck immediately and reboots. I can get to eRecogery mode , options available: DL latest version&recovery (results in 'getting package info failed'), reboot and shutdown.
my friend if you have warranty give it back or wipe factory reset to see ifit boots

It seems to me that your phone updated by itself. If your phone is rebranded from a Chinese model to EU model, this issue happens. Right now, you need to download the right firmware for your phone and use the dload method, see if that works.
Hello,
I have the same problem: Honor 8 (with FRD-AL00 sticker), rebranded, updated from FRD-L19C636B360 to FRD-L19C636B380 - no boot - eRecovery not working
Tried the rollback UK firmware and now it's stuck on FRD-L19C900B300 still won't boot and I can't find a firmware to use with dload method. Every firmware I tried gives error after 5% progress. The bootloader is locked.
Does anyone have an ideea which firmware to try with dload method?
Thanks in advance.

Is it possible that official OTA update does the rebranding and bricks the phone I'll check the dload method. Does it need something to be unlocked? Also, is there a way to get full model number somehow so I know which fw to download? I know it starts with FRD-L09

In that case, flash twrp. Rebrand to Chinese model if you want the use HurUpdater to flash any firmware you want.

Flash the device via Odin, when it bootloop, turn the device off, then boot your device into stock recovery and then choose the factory reset option.

Ok, you've got something else going on.
Have you previously modified the device or flashed anything on the device that wasn't stock? If so, did the modifications or whatever you flashed cause an issue and that is now the reason you are flashing the firmware?
Are you certain that your firmware is for your specific device and is it the most up to date version for your device?

But are you using the most up to date firmware? Older/downgraded firmware won't work, it has to be exactly the same binary as what is already on the device or a firmware with a newer binary, it can not be a firmware that has an older binary than the firmware that is already on the device.
