I have a problem with a note 2, what goes on is everytime after I get a software update, at the end of it says it could not complete. Before this I have tried rooting my phone but failed cause when I root check it says not rooted, but when I go into odin mode on the phone it says current binary:custom and system status:custom. I would like to fix all of this and could even consider flashing to standard rom. Fast Help would be really appreciated
Hi guys,
I've done a stupid thing. I just Bricked my s5. I have TWRP recovery on. I flashed the Xtrestolite Rom (great one!). When installed, i ran through the usual setup of the s5 and noticed i forgot to flash my Samsung browser. i had apparantly also the reactivation lock before the. So, when i was on my homescreen i decided to reboot into recovery to start flashing the browser when i get the message
'Custom Binary blocked by Reactivation Lock'
'Secure fail: Recovery'
Still get into download mode but Odin won't spot the phone and also there's still the message that reactivation lock in download mode is still on.
Any idea's? I'm brand new here and also a bit of a semi-noob, so be gentle.
From what I have read, you need to Odin back to kit-kat in order to disable the reactivation lock, then you can upgrade to lollipop again.
You have to flash the stock rom and disable activation lock in security settings I think.
You should try to flash the stock rom, download it from sammobile, i have the exact link but i can't post URL's because i'm new to XDA, well, then flash it with ODIN, if it doesn't recognize your device make sure that all is well configured with ODIN and your device, hope it helps.
found solution"Custom binary blocked by fap lock" all most every samsung firmware MM
I was also seeing things on net my phone was not booting
Odin was also not working
Then after half day search i found 2 tricks
*Your data will be erased
1st - use (Smart Switch). Goto more on toolbar>options will be provided "too simpel but time consuming"
2nd - search for the latest update of your firmware on the "sammobile" """"latest"""""
Use odin and flash it
It will work
After it if apps force stops you then factory reset it manually
Then reboot it
After
Remove your all accounts from phone to
Fap off
In download mod and other works
Your baby will work fine
When your phone starts
If i helped
Plzz click thanks
Hi Guys,
My relative has a stock Australian S7 SM-G930F which has an issue trying to boot, it was running standard optus firmware and just stopped working one day, stuck at samsung screen.
So I tried to perform a factory reset from recovery and still same issue it cannot access the EFS partition.
So I go to try to load a stock firmware and same issue.
I found this article which looks like it should restore access to the EFS partition https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/how-to-fix-efailed-to-mount-efs-invalid-t2858056 but whenever I try to load a custom recovery I get FRP lock so it looks like from my reading I am stuck and my relative now has a flashy brick?
Cannot seem to get ADB to work I assume because it has never had USB debugging enabled.
It has never been rooted, custom firmware or anything.
The only thing that works is download mode with ODIN. But since EFS is corrupted/inaccessible and FRP is locked I don't see a solution.
Anyone come across this issue before and how to solve?
It is not under warranty and is slightly damaged so not worth sending back for repair.
Same case
Exactly the same case with me. My device stuck on "Galaxy S7 logo", when I tried to enter recovery mode , got message failed to mount /efs, already tried to flashing with original rom, but still the same.
Then I tried to install twrp,but I got FRP locked.
If anyone can help us maybe there's some steps that I've missed
Hi everyone,
so it was working perfectly this morning, then i factory resetted it, and used it for a few hours, but forgot to turn on oem unlocking in dev options. And then when i rebooted it it never turned on after that. it showed Custom binary blocked by frp lock on upper right corner in red color.
i had encountered this issue before so i knew the solution, i simply fired up my odin3 3.14. and started flashing my stock rom. after it was done it gave me another error
Failed to mount /system as rw and started restarting after that error.
i had encountered this issue before also, so i knew the solution, i downloaded the latest twrp for herolte, and last time when i did that it successfully installed and then i flashed encyption disabler zip, and it was a happy ending to a stressful evening. but unfortunately this time it wasnt like last time, it was one of those anime fighting comeback scenes where you think you have defeated the villain but he comes back, So this time when i tried flashing the last twrp through odin it said "FAIL!" and on the phone appeared the message "Custom binary (RECOVERY) Blocked By FRP Lock"
please help me fix this phone, i solely use it for watching movies and stuff, no sim card,
ask me any other detail that i might've forgotten to mention.

Forget about TWRP at this point to get the phone working you just need to flash the stock that was on your phone before modification or the latest version of it. Then when phone reboots and FRP lock kicks in you just sign in with the Google email and password connected to the phone.
@cooltt, boss thats the issue, i wish it asks me that. i have the email and password to which its locked to. but after i flash stock rom it automatically boots into recovery mode and shows "Erasing" and after some time it shows no command. and reboots. if i check the terminal on that "no commands" window it shows. failed to mount /system as rw, but that can be fixed if i can flash twrp frok download mode but now even that requires frp unlock. cant see an escape. i will just goto a mobile store on weakend if nobody posts a solution here.
this is why Samsung are the worst android smartphones . what use is the security system if even the owner gets locked down

Are you flashing 4 different files in Odin, or just the A/P slot?
@Drunkpilot , yes I'm flashing all 4 files with Odin
Flash only stock firmware ...
