Rooting S9 G960W Android 9 - Framaroot

I'm trying to Root a Samsung S9 for Data recovery purposes. I've put it in developer mode and turned on USB debugging mode. haven't been able to find OEM Unlocking option. Every root I've tried failed. I tried all the auto root apps as well as flashing "cfar_samsung_sm-g960w_starqltecs_ppr1.180610.011.g960wvlu3csaa_t0" IMG in Odin. Can someone please offer me some guidance?
Thanks

[Q] FRP lock help--j700T Marshmallow

Hello,
I wonder if someone would help me FRP unlock my phone. It is a T-mobile sm-J700t 2015. I have searched the forum but don't see a clear answer.
I have tried (from Youtube) the USB cable method, the camera method and flashing the 10/2016 stock firmware through ODIN. In Odin I get an error: "Complete(Write) operation failed". I cannot turn on USB debugging of course because I cannot get into the device. Haven't tried updating with Kies yet because I'm nervous they'll patch any additional back doors I could try.
I am somewhat experienced at flashing and such and I think there must be a way to completely wipe the device and flash new firmware but I don't see instructions for that.
Thanks in advance!

Anyone? Still locked out of my phone. :crying:
Reboot normaly > go to settings > developer setting > oem unlock check yes

Reboot normaly > go to settings > developer setting > oem unlock > check yes
I can't get into the phone at all. It is FRP (Google) locked because I did a factory reset from recovery. I can only manipulate it from PC or stock recovery. I have ADB, Odin and Samsung Kies on my PC if that helps.
What is the reason I am getting the ODIN error: "Complete(Write) operation failed"? Is it due to the FRP lock?
If not, would flashing the same stock firmware even help? (I have read that it's not possible to flash older firmware versions.)
Is the boot partition where the FRP status is stored? Is it possible to flash a new boot image to reset it?
I assume flashing a custom recovery would be useless? I doubt it could be done without USB debugging/ADB being enabled anyway.
One of the reason for that odin error is flashing an old build of stock ROM, your guess is right
Even if you are able to flash a stock FW via ODIN you'll still not be able to boot to your OS.
You have to login using the same google id that was previously logged in
OR you have to bypass the Google Account Login Screen.
There are varous method on youtube (i know you saw them) to bypass that screen (Side Sync method worked for me at the 10th attempt) inorder to install a 3rd party app either to
1. enable the developer option or enable OEM unlock ( to flash custom ROM or custom recovery)
OR
2. to overwrite the previous google account saved with your new account details. (THIS ONE HELPED ME)
WITH FRP LOCK ON, ODIN SHOULD NOT GIVE YOU ERROR ONLY IF YOU ARE FLASHING STOCK ROM. BUT STILL YOU WILL BE LOCKED WITH GOOGLE ACCOUNT LOGIN SCREEN BECAUSE OF FRP LOCK ON AND STOCK ROM
FRP info. is saved in Sboot. Flashing a new sboot works only for devices those were never upgraded to Android 6. For J7 2015 that was upgraded to android 6, flashing Sboot bricks the phone as said by a cell phone repair agent

Sid
@saddam.khan999 : Thank you so much for replying. This is helpful. :highfive:
What did you do to get the sidesync to work? Mine wouldn't even connect to Sidesync on my PC.
Tried different USB ports, and even different PC's to get it to pop up on the phone. Tried old usb drivers too. Sidesync never senses it, and My Computer only show MTP folder that won't accept any file pasted to it.
You did this with Android 6.0.1 October 2016 update? They fix more holes every time.
Also, can you give me the link to the unlock tutorial you used with Sidesync? Just want to compare my method.

I followed below step to fix popup issue
1. Uninstall all samsung apps like, Kies, SmartSwitch, SideSync everything.
2. Uninstall Samsung USB drivers
3. Install SmartSwicth (to get best drivers)
4. Now install SideSync (latest)
5. Open SideSync and check for OTA updates in your PC (update it if available)
I give up. I'm going to pay somebody. He can use one of those low-level programs to unlock it remotely. It only costs $15. Well worth it. Wish me luck!

Not so simple.
During FRP Lock you are restricted to the google sign in page, locked out of everything else. Cannot even pull down the status bar. So no way to get to settings.
This can be done via ADB , but only if you had USB Debugging enabled prior.
I just obtained a used J7000T1 and FRP lock is activated , Even on the bootloader it displays "FRP Locked" . USB Debugging was never enabled .
If I find a way , I'll post. Any one have luck yet?
Once " FRP Locked " is off the bootloader, I'm sure we can just load a recovery / rom via Odin .... But that's where I am a stuck of course.

I had this happen last Feb when I got the phone and was trying to install twrp, and it says frp lock when I tried flashing the recovery tar via odin. I literally took out the battery rebooted back into the OS and turned on oem unlock and USB Debugging and it was fine then when I flashed twrp. I have never heard of this other issue u speak of. The phone has an unlocked bootloader to begin with. If u are stuck in a Google sign in page, I would download the Samsung z3 tool and make sure u have drivers installed and unlock the frp that way.it does have an option for frp lock

Thanks.
Drivers are installed.
Just cannot move from the google sign in.
There is a guide that shows how to use a USB drive with a shortcut apk on it , hooked up via OTG and is able to open settings. Although that did not work for me as well...
Maybe N version is different than MM ?
Almost the same problem here.....but in my j700f, I can't boot to recovery at all...can't flash stock firmware also due frp locked

[Completed] Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime+(SM-G532F) rooted and locked after disabling OEM unlocking

Hey guys, I'm new here...
Well yesterday my dad bought me a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime+ SM-G532F (vodafone, South Africa).
I wanted to root it( i always used to use KingoRoot) but i found a thread with an exploit to root the SM-G532F/M/G or something like that. Anyways i used it and flashed the "root-boot.tar" and followed all the steps( Enabled OEM unlocking and usb debugging) and i had root access and everything was perfect.
Then i thought i didn't need the OEM unlocking and the usb debugging anymore so i disabled both. Then afterwards i rebooted my phone( Because i had just installed Magisk so i could play pokemon go on a jailbroken device and it required a reboot.).
As it restarted, I got this message on a light blue screen( i don't think it even booted), "Security Error: This phone has been flashed with unauthorised software & is locked. Call your mobile operator for additional support. Please note that repair/return for this issue may have additional cost."
I think this is because of disabling the OEM unlocking. I tried flashing a stock ROM(it was really small though, but am downloading a 1.5Gb one right now) using odin while in download mode( The phone doesn't have a recovery menu to wipe/factory reset. It goes straight to download mode) and it appears that the custom binary (boot.img) is being blocked by the FRP lock.
Here is what appears when i go into recovery(well download mode):
ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G532F
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
FRP LOCK: ON
WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 (0x302)
MTK SECURE BOOT: ENABLE
AP SWREV: B1 K0 S0
SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE
I can't use ADB because it doesn't even appear if i try "adb devices" it is completely blank. But in odin it shows 0:[COM4]. Is this because my usb debugging is disabled? Can i flash with odin if usb debugging is disabled? If not, is there a way to enable usb debugging with the phone only in download mode( As in no ADB recovery or updating from sd card etc).
Please help. I really need to fix this. Even if i lose everything on the phone it's fine since i only got it yesterday.

Greetings and welcome to assist. FRP lock shouldn't prevent you flashing stock rom, the easiest way to restore your device should be with kies/smart switch and using the emergency firmware recovery option

[Completed] Enable USB debugging on phone stuck in bootloop

Hello,
I am currently in a situation where USB debugging was not enabled, CROM service status is set to "Locked". This is causing an issue on my International Galaxy S6 Edge (g9250) -- It is stuck in a boot loop and the android OS that was previously installed was wiped on accident through the stock android recovery mode.
I am unable to flash TWRP recovery to the phone, I am unable to use Odin to flash a stock ROM image to the phone, or perform any data transfer between my Windows machine to the phone. Now I am sure this is because I never enabled developer mode and turned on USB debugging, and also because this CROM service is set to lock. When I attempt to sideload using ADB I get error:closed. When using the Skipsoft Unified Android Toolkit any task performed stops at: "Waiting for USB debugging".
Is there any solution for this? I've looked all over the internet and haven't been able to solve my issue -- I'm stuck at a perpetual boot loop because there is no Android OS on the device's partition, and also am unable to flash the stock ROM using ODIN or sideload using ADB.
Is there is a way to turn on USB debugging when stuck in a bootloop? Or a way to disable CROM service on the phone to be able to flash or transfer files?
As of right now the device is completely useless and I have been researching for the past 5 days
Any help is very appreciated, please let know if there is more information needed.

S7 little more than Soft-brick

Hi, I own a samsung galaxy s7, running Superman-ROM and using TWRP recovery. Recently I was mucking around with some friends and decided it would be a good idea to install a ****ty game as firmware (through Lucky Patcher). After asking me to reboot I did and it is now soft-bricked. It says "custom binary blocked by FRP lock". The problem is that both OEM unlock & USB debugging were off, so I cannot connect to my PC. The only thing I can access is Download mode, but I am not able to enter recovery mode to wipe it. I have tried reinstalling both TWRP & Samsung's default ROM through Samsung Odin (I do have USB drivers) and they both fail. Is this fixeable or would I have to give it to a professional?
Thanks in advance, Lucien
This once happened to me and I had to end up wiping everything on my phone with Odin.

HELP!!! Custom Binary (BOOT) Blocked By OEM Lock

Hi there, I've been having trouble rooting my Samsung Galaxy A20 - SM-A205GN for awhile now. I'm officially on Android Version 10 with One UI Version 2.0, I've followed the provided guide to root my device but it fails on Odin "all versions" when I flash the recovery.tar file. After it fails it gives me a prompt on my phone on recovery mode saying Custom Binary (BOOT) Blocked By OEM Lock. I have enabled OEM Unlocking and USB debugging but it seems like it doesn't enable is there a way that your carrier can block these options to not enabled because that's what my starting to think why I can't seem to root my device. Can anyone suggest any workaround or fixes for this problem.
While your phone is turned off hold down both volume buttons and connect the usb cable, it will give you 2 options just hold down the volume up button and your bootloader will be unlocked

This happens to the a207f because it has Snapdragon instead of Exynos
You have to flash Stock Firmware
Boot back to download mode and long Press Volume up button.
then you will be oem unlocked
....except not that I unlocked and relocked bootloader on s10e it won't show up again in developer options
