Rooted SGS8+ wont boot up after restart:"only official released binaries are allowed"
Hello People,
I've rooted my SGS8+ almost a year ago. 1 week ago I had to send my phone to the service center because of a dead pixel in my screen.
The service center have replaced the screen and wiped unfortunately all the data.
Ofcourse I want to get rid of all the bloatware again and so I just tried to Root my phone. Everything went fine, I only forgot to place my simcard, which I placed after the root.
And this ofcourse asked me to reboot the phone which I did.
Since then my SGS8+ would not boot anymore and gives the message (above the samsung logo): "only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed after reboot", in red text.
So I've looked arround on the internet and can't find really much about this message. Some "solutions" which for me don't work like:
I did download stock firmware from Sammobile, but if I'm trying to flash this firmware it will give me the message: "sw rev check fail device 4 binary 2"
I seriously dont know what to do and I really hope someone could explain me some..
I would like to know why this message even occurs, is it like Samsung trying to stop people from rooting?
And should I leave my phone now for 7 days? And will it boot up after?
I've tried to check other forums but nothing really helped or no real solution for me.
Hope I dont bother you guys.
Kinds regards,
Tom
The same thing has happened for me, though i don't get a fail message in Odin, more or less just that it has failed. Did you ever solve it?

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!

So I have a Samsung Galaxy S8+ Phone from my late father in law. Tried to reset it several months ago, but gave up due to FRP.
Now, I'm doing AR development and it works great on my iPhone, but I need to test it on android. So I figured id try to bypass the FRP and use it to test the apps.
I tried to bypass it, and i think I failed horribly. Instead of flashing "G955USQU3ARD1" to it, I instead flashed "G955USQU5ARF1" which was in same folder =/
The phone boots fine into the "Factory Binary" mode, and I can run my app on it, however it docent seem like ARCore works on it. Probably due to the Combination firm.
I tried to flash my "G955USQS3CRE2" firmware back, and now its giving me the whole "SW REV CHECK FAIL: Fused 5 > Binary 3" problem which i'm assuming means I need rev 5 of the firmware now?
Altho i'm not sure if i just bricked my phone or not. due to it saying its now a Verizon phone instead of at&t.
Long story short i'm trying to make sure that if I continue, I end up with a phone I can fully use, and preferably not a brick. Verifying that i'm doing this correctly.
Alot of sites just say "Run this magical EXE" to remove FRP which I figure is probably a scam.
Iv enabled debug, and oem, and done the whole "DM+ACM+ADB" set.
Model: SM-955U
Current Version: Verizon/dream2qltesq/dream2qltesq 7.0/nrd90m/fa70_g955usqu5arf1
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.
good guys, I need a lot of help, two days ago, I had the bootloader unlocked, since it came with a firmware from last year and the operator, I installed the latest firmware to get the operator logo and installed twrp , when i went to install the sabor rom, my phone crashed, and i came across samsung's message that i can't install unofficial binaries, i was forced to reinstall the stock and get stuck in it, without telling twrp. i wanted to know, how I exceed or circumvent the kg state: prenormal. this kg state stay in download mode and never comes out again. How do I overcome this and reinstall twrp? I really need your help!
if someone has a program or charges for the service, I pay, no problem, as long as it's cheap!

there are many guides in this thread describing how to do this. please thumb thru the previous posts and im sure you will find your answer. if you dont have any luck, feel free to reply to bump this thread to the top
Apparently the only way is by paid service but I don't know which...
[EDIT: SOLVED THE ISSUE BY TRYING THE LATEST FIRMWARE. THANKS ANYWAY!]
I got this phone from a friend, no clue what he's done to it, but I get a "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed"
So I downloaded the stock rom and tried flashing it through ODIN, but I keep getting errors, and it will not let me flash anything. There seems to be no bootloader too, if that's possible, as I can't enter it. I'm now stuck on a screen that tells me "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software"
I haven't rooted a phone or messed around with a phone at this level since the Oneplus One days. Extremely rusty, please help me out.
(also, the phone has G950FD on the back, but download mode claimed it's G950F. it's a dual sim phone. Is this normal?)
(apologies if I'm repeating a threads already dealt with. Can't seem to find threads related, I've forgotten my ways around this forum)
