Hey everyone, so I recently purchased an a10e second hand, thought i did my due diligence, checked the black list for the imei, registered on samsungs site , when i finally got to play with it a day or so later when i was going through the setup it asked me for the original owners information. had attempted to contact the owner but dude is litterally a ghost, I have attempted everything i can possibly find here and on the forums about frp unlock tried several apk tools which get **** blocked by debuggong not neing on, tried hrs worth of adb commands to no aveil, and redonculous amount hrs trying bad combo files and firmware files that fail. ive been at this daily for a month now. I realize i can eat my pride and pay to get it dealt with, but ive been at it for so long at this point. I NEED TO SEE IT THROUGH. PLEASE HELP THANKS

Hi all, proper random but i went out about a month ago now, got in a proper mess and randomly woke up with someones phone in my pocket, its a samsung galaxy s i9000, wasnt sure whether it was a mates or not so announced it on my facebook seeing if they would come forward, but no one has, so i must have found it, im not the type to steel, promise! i have an iphone 4 so ive taken it me being a complete w*nker and taking it from someone as an option. i was thinking may as well try and put it to use rather than just chucking it, its on a 3 network, but its not got sim lock, its phone locked, just asking for a password to get into it, ive spent an hour or so trying to find out if theres a way but havent yet come across a way, if there is one. Help would be appreciated
I have the same phone dude its simple,search threw here (in the i9000 section ,first you'll need to root it with Odin,after you have root go to market and download Samsung galaxy unlock and follow the steps and your done.
*very important once your rooted make a copy of your efs folder(contains your imei number)it can/will change depending on if you flash roms.*
Good luck

I've searched far and wide on these long threads and tried most of them. Twice or more and I still can't add certain. Accounts specially samsung. Yes the phone is Samsung account locked the phone was reported stolen so my brother could get a new one and he gave me this one. Now that I don't have a working phone I need to get this thing up.and running. It's got activation lock on even when I turned it off double factory reset and all those tricks and asks work but not 100%. I'm broke and can't buy a good phone and would love the help
No one on XDA will help you when you obtained the phone through fraud.
Hi Everyone,
I've been to several places, all point back to here. I've searching the site but it seems a guide does not exist for flashing my phone.
My problem> Phone was working perfectly fine 2 days ago> My email wouldn't load> So I thought if I restarted the phone it will work> The phone turned off perfectly well, and since then It will never turn on. It remains stuck on the Android boot screen.
To clarify: Phone was never rooted or unlocked. I never tampered or interfered with it in any way.
In an effort to fix it, I took it to a shop that repairs phones (since my warranty is over). They said they can fix it, but will charge me a price which is 70% of what I paid for the phone when it was new. I'm on a budget, I currently have no phone, and I can't afford a new one, or to pay for this one to be repaired.
I'd really appreciate some help. So far I've tried to unlock the bootloader, but this doesn't work as the phone won't start in the first place. I've tried doing hard resets, factory resets, and also cleared the cache, and none of these things solved the problem.
Please advise on how I can get flashed / working again.
Thank you
Hi !
Are you sure is a Samsung device ?
Check on the manufacturer`s website or ask here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help
Cheers !
So, about a month ago I decided to factory reset my phone. I got it to factory binary mode, that was what I wanted to do because the phone kept messing up, getting hot, etc. I figured I’d reset it, download my apps back that I used a lot and everything else would be erased so I could start fresh, rather than going through every single thing in my phone and deciding what to get rid of, and what to keep.
Of corse, I have a AT&T phone that apparently makes this complicated with the Samsung factory reset protection. I got this phone from someone I used to have a relationship type of connection with, and I did ask for the help from them, they couldn’t remember the login info for their old phone.
Basically what I’m asking here is when in factory binary mode, with FRP on, can I get back to the phones regular system? I’ve never done this before, and now I regret it more than anything. I didn’t backup my phone or anything, I’ve tried several times reading countless thin about flashing a phone and blah blah, so, does ANYONE know what I should do? I recently lost my job and buying anything isn’t an option, espicaly those websites that say you have to pay to get the FRP deleted.
Is there ANYTHING I can do a thing this point? I’ve heard with the FRP still on, that I can’t download the stock rom back or really do anything, is this true? Can anybody please help! This is my last resort, I’ve spent countless hours trying to google and read articles and this forum was the only place I saw people actually getting help and getting their problems resolved.
Thanks for your time, and the replies. Sorry if this is the wrong sub forum, I’m new here.
Bringing up my post, still no replies yet.
hey everyone i am going absolutely nuts trying to get past this reactivation lock. i've tried absolutely everything for the past couple of days. can anyone help me? pretty sure im on latest.... i can get into youtube and all that and apex launch into the system but cannot get rid of the samsung account?
please i beg of you help me!
i just got around the FRP lock on my dads S5 (straight talk G903VL) last week and i dont even know what his gmail address is to be perfectly honest. His phone wasnt associated with any service account either, so the only commonality that google would know about is sharing our last name. Anyways, what i ended up doing is just entering my gmail acct info in the fields and it just asked me to make a new password. It seemed waaaaaay too easy to get past, so im assuming that something else had happened to cause it. I had also factory reset it several times in stock recovery and attempted to flash the G900V firmware on it (which failed over 5 times with different firmware versions)
anyways, heres a how-to with some methods worth trying
