How can I remove FRP locked? - General Questions and Answers

Hello dear XDA community,
as new user here I was very excited to find this great platform and have learnt finally how to improve privacy on my samsung... I installed TWRP, successfuly rooted by Magisk, added Xposed, Xlua Privacy... all was good until... My phone didn't become FRP locked... Probably locked the device when I was trying to log into google account because of WhatsApp backups
I tried to get to download mode and flash it by Odin in this download mode but process failed, FRP locked appeared and... before when I was recovering system by TWRP I was successful but second time probably OEM was turned off and that's why I have a problem now
could you please advice me any software which with I can get rid of this FRS lock from download mode? I don't mind to pay also for this software but I am worried about fake software...
My problematic mobile phone Samsung Galaxy A5 Duos (2017) SM-A520F/DS - It is dual sim phone (It is international version of A5)
Android: Oreo 8.0.0
Serial Number: R58K24KNKKR
Build Number: R16NW.A520FXXS8CSB1
Please give me an advice
thank you

The only way I have been able to do this is to flash an egnineering bootloader and then run an adb command that wipes the security then reflash your bootloader, load your ROM from recovery, and reboot.

any guidance how to flash an egnineering bootloader and then run an adb command please?
Thank you for you advice

Hard bricking Galaxy S7

I wrote in separate thread 10 days ago.
I got the rooted Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F) which if I try to boot to recovery gives an error: dm-verity verification need to check drk first.
Then following step by step instructions I installed TWRP.
And flashed custom rom SuperMan-Rom V1.6.5
Rom worked fine until I rebooted the device for the first time. Then I got message:
Code:
Custom Binary Blocked By FRP
Maybe I accidentally turned off OEM unlock in Developer settings, but I honestly don't remember I did that.
And after that I got the hard brick. This is confirmed by @CuBz90 in this thread
So my question is:
1. After the Galaxy S7 is rooted/custom recovery is installed, the DRK is damaged and dm-verity verification will fail if stock rom is installed, right?
2. If user accidentally turn off OEM Unlock the device will be hard bricked, right?
Is that two steps one way ultimate bricking?
I'm asking that because I'm thinking of buying new Galaxy S7 to replace the bricked one, but if hard bricking is that easy, than I'm not really sure I will buy it again.
Dude, try to kill him completly ( nothing on screen ) then send him to warranty, you got nothing to lose.

It's not possible since I bought it second hand.
Even if I had a warranty, in my country (Serbia) warranty for smartphones doesn't mean much, I think I could write PhD thesis easier than to make seller replace/fix smartphone with warranty

No I didn't but the fact is it will not work.
There is currently no way to fix that. The only way would be to unlock FRP by some box, but it isn't released yet.
What I am asking here is true that Galaxy S7 could be hard bricked that easy? By steps I wrote in my first post.
My questions are partially answered in this article
But I still don't understand what's the problem with dm-variety if I flashed stock rom?
Is there are any other parts of the NAND that are not original/signed and that's why dm-verity fails?
If that's the case can they be backed up then reflashed with the Odin if I get into same problem with new phone?
Thanks
@mss1988 Even if you get message as locked because of FRP, just use Smart switch with Emergency recovery mode and you will get the device back to its original state. This works even if the device is rooted or Twrp'd

Thanks, but Smart Switch Emergency Recovery is basically the same thing as Kies Firmware update. Which I already tried and that didn't fixed my problem.

@mss1988 I have personally faced this issue on Samsung J7 and J5 and later I had to use Smart Switch's Emergency recovery functionality by enter my Serial number and Device Model Number and Successfully finished flashing the stock ROM. Yes, This works.

I don't have the phone anymore to confirm or to deny this. But the whole procedure in Kies and Smart Switch is the same. There are other people with the same problem too in this thread too, and they still didn't found the way to unbrick their devices.

I went through this procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/guide-how-to-fix-check-drk-imei-issues-t3379516 which gives a link to downloading the factory binary (of either version). It reinstated my IMEI which had been turned to a string of zeroes. I will say that when you reboot after flashing the factory binary it's pretty different looking so be prepared for that. I then went to Sammobile and downloaded the appropriate stock ROM for my s7 and flashed that with Odin. I flashed TWRP, formatted internal data when given the opportunity, flashed the no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip, and I was able to use my s7 again. At any rate, you might follow the guide at the link I gave you and see if it helps. As always, no guarantee is given or implied. It's just what I did.
Thanks man, but I can't flash the Factory binary, my FRP is unfortunately ON.

There's no adb/fastboot access from Samsung recovery or Samsung download mode, as far as I know.
Just get your phone into downloadmode and then flash the stock firmware witch you can find on sammobile. I got also this problem, and then everything will be fine ?
did you try use Kies or Smart swticher to factory restore the phone ?
because as far as i know , even FRP is on , you can still flash stock firmware.
and , try local shop to find any place have z3x box or Octopus box .

master reset code

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.

Galaxy S6 Secure check fail : (recovery) help, installing TWRP

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.

J330F downgrade

Hi. I accidently updated my J3 to android 9 and since then, the phone works like my old Samsung S4 mini. Everything is lagging, in short phone is just unusable. I know that trying to downgrade via odin you get anti rollback protection because of the bootloader so is there any other way how to downgrade it to older version? I don't care if it's easy or hard way, i just want to make this phone usable. Maybe flashing older rom with keeping new bootloader? I heard someone did that once to A7 2018 but never published this rom.
I downgraded my SM-J330F (with unlocked bootloader) from Pie (9) to Nougat (7) using Odin.
To unlock the bootloader on a J3 is very easy. Go to Developer Options and activate OEM unlocking. That's it.
If it's somehow missing, use this:
