Hey i have a Canadian Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930W8 model and when i bought it second hand buddy did not remove his google& Samsung account which is preventing me from having my OWN phone and i want to factory reset it and cannot do it through the setting (powered on) and in recovery it says that it will require the Google account that is currently on the phone be signed into once the reset is complete stupid FRP protection. I found the Samsung master reset code online and im hoping that will work but wanted to ask the community before i tried just to be safe. Please any helped is greatly appreciated thanks.
ALSO its running the july 1 2018 security patch and android 8.0 ored
The only way to get past FRP is the google account or an FRP bypass exploit which are all patched in Oreo.
Take it back to the seller and get them to unlock it for you.
Its not lock i have full access i am trying to get rid of his Samsung & google account if i could root it i could get it but cant seem to find a rooting method for this phone ..... Im not locked out of it i have 100% access just need his account removed
G930W8 is Exynos, so you should just be able to flash TWRP and then flash a root zip. But if you factory reset its going to lock down. https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/recovery-official-twrp-herolte-t3333770
Downgrading to marshmallow and using a bypass method (even though it's not locked, bypass lets you change the google account) may be your best bet.
Ok so downgrade to 6.0? And then find a frp unlock for marshmallow and then i dont kno how to run the bypass never had a phone with this nonsense ..... As for the root method which root file would i have to get i could then have my brother write a snippet like the old "remove gapps\knox\samsung apps" i doubt the old one i have would even work lol
Lookup FRP bypasses on youtube, there's many methods and at least once will work - it's not a simple process however.
In that TWRP thread I linked is the Super SU flashable zip, or Magisk would be the best root methods.

Hi there I've been away from rooting for a bit and i have been trying to root a broken s7 edge more recently. Its got 6.0.1 stock on it. It all works except the volume up button. I seem to be able to access the phones files and sd card in windows. I can also flash 6.0.1 it seems by forcing it into download mode. But its still stuck on FRP and i can't find any way to unlock the bootloader to install custom software. I've been trying all the tutorials i can find but none work. Is this Samsung patching these security holes and so they no longer work? The password Is unknown for the Google account and it's not blacklisted or anything like that I've not used the SIM in any tutorial though. So is this doable or is it impossible at present? It all seems a lot more secure since my last root :s Thanks

Try this for bypassing Factory Reset Protection(FRP)
https://www.progeeksblog.com/bypass-factory-reset-protection-on-samsung-devices/
Or this
https://www.xda-developers.com/rootjunky/
As for rooting the device, there aren't many methods that work on lollipop and newer firmwares other than maybe trying Kingroot and Kingoroot or flashing TWRP(not an option for you since you have a locked bootloader) for your model number then flashing Super or Magisk.
I DO NOT PROVIDE HELP IN PM, KEEP IT IN THE THREADS WHERE EVERYONE CAN SHARE
Hello, I have a galaxy S8 with FRP lock currently. It has 7.0 running. This is a Verizon Galaxy S8 (G950u). Here is the (g950usqs2bql1) software with the bootloader (g950usqu2bqk5). My problem after doing much research is that all the ways to get around the lock are being blocked by the updated firmware. The bluetooth hack won't work since there is no options to access or turn it on. Heres the biggest problem, once I've gotten into DrParser mode, Since this is a Verizon phone, NONE of the secret codes will work with it. Most of the videos and tutorials states I cannot downgrade from where Im currently at with my firmware, and since I cannot gain access to turn on debugging mode, I have no access to use ADB software of the desktop. Now I have access into the whole phone, and have downloaded multiple APK's for entering debugging mode, but still says access denied when trying to bypass. I've also downloaded numerous APK's to bypass FRP without success.
My question is: Is there another way around this without using Drpasser Mode, or the bluetooth method? I might mention I've also logged into my gmail account within the device and when prompted to log into previous owners device, I can use my log in information (which it accepts) and then it will go right back to the menu stating log in with previous owner credentials. PLEASE HELP!
I am still a noob (which Im a pretty fast learner), just need STEP by STEP instructions please. Thanks for any help or advice. :fingers-crossed:
I have been trying for about a month to root and atleast boot this SM-G920V to a rom I dont even care if it's rooted but anytime i try to follow a youtube video exactly it still ends up failing i have used adb to boot to bootloader then turned off phone booted into download mode to bypass the secure download but it still says SECURE CHECK FAIL : (RECOVERY) I don't quite understand why Verizon just has to be so difficult but this may be a dumb question is there anyway to actually switch the model of this phone without just changing that file that displays it to thus switch it to a root compatible version or will changing that actually make the phone compatible I don't know if anyone has any tips as to booting this verizon galaxy s6 nougat 7 to a custom rom or even rooting though I was told that the verizon models are incompatible for unlocking bootloader but I know theres ways of booting to roms without unlocking bootloader though you need root is there anyone that doesnt need root or unlocking bootloader I have also tryed the old ping pong method and that still failed. please let me know if you have any knowledge of any of this thank you in advance
No way for custom rom.
Flash the latest official, install Package Disabler app and get rid of the bloatware.
Then enjoy the phone.
Hi all,
this is my first post on this forum, I have used XDA many times for various reasons but never had to register because I always found a solution... until now.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930F, non sim locked. This phone used to be my fathers phone, he now has a new phone but he couldn't remember his password from his old Gmail account. He wants to give the phone to his wife, but he has reset the phone without disabling 'find my phone' and now his wife can't access the phone because of FRP lock.
I have done extensive searches and found multiple 'solutions' on how to bypass FRP but none of them has worked so far. That's where I need help.
As I've mentioned before, it's a Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930F, unlocked sim version. It's a device that's made for the Dutch market. As far as I know the phone has been properly updated till two months ago, it has Android Oreo but not sure which security update, it definitely doesn't have the 2018 november update.
Can somebody help me with finding the proper bootloader etc so I can flash the device and my fathers wife can use the phone? That would be much appreciated.
tnx in advance!

Tell him to just reset his password, and log into it then
Of course we've tried it, but with no phonenumber or secondary email attached that's impossible.
Beside that, he wasn't even sure about the account used, has multiple gmail accounts that he doesn't use anymore.
But I've had help through a user who send me a PM, phone is working again.

I have a SM-G930T Galaxy S7 that I can't figure out also.. Seems G**gle has a way of keeping it's security patches installed. I downgraded it to 7.0 succesfully but Odin fails while downgrading to 6.0.1. I was able to bypass my j7 after 3 days of trying various methods till I came up with my own combination. But this S7 has me ready to pay someone else to do it for me. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

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.
What is Google FRP?
FAQ for Samsung Mobile Device. Find more about 'What is Google FRP?' with Samsung Support.

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
More info on that in this topic
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.
