I've got an SM-A515U (Verizon) and have been looking all over for a working FRP bypass. The only way to install apps is through galaxy store. I can't use Alliance Shield to enroll the phone-- not just because Samsung removed it from their store but also Smart Switch isn't allowing for apps to fully transfer over from other devices or from an SD card for some reason; it gets hung up on the final stage and doesn't finalize. Oh and there isn't a Samsung Cloud option to use the restore backup feature either. I tried flashing stock firmware and combination hoping that would work but it doesn't matter what I do I can't seem to get it unlocked. Which leads me here. Any ideas?

Hi all,
Tried figuring out how to unroot the note 7 but no luck
samsung plus is detecting it and i cannot download updates
I only rooted so i can unlock the phone
any help?
SOLVED:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-note-7/how-to/sm-n930p-stock-odin-firmware-t3444733
Launched ODIN and did only AP first, phone crashed and had a strange error screen. Then did the other three and the phone asked for a factory reset then started working.
The unlock STAYED
The device is able to get updates and everything seems to work fine including Samsung Pay
Only issue is that the hotspot does not show in the settings at all. All hotspot apps fail.
Also, does anyone know if the unlock will hold after returning to stock? Considering it's probably a soft unlock.
I want to be able to use all samsung services normally. as well as download updates and install them.
Thanks!
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)

Or this

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:
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.
I recently got a new phone from the Troomi carrier. They sell a Samsung A32 5G phone and it is very locked down. I have done some digging and managed to enable USB debugging, but I can't manage to root it. I can install apps, but the Knox app control quickly disables it. The app is still installed, but can't be seen without adb. I have managed to rename the package name for an app to that of an app that is allowed. That worked until my mom discovered this and deleted the app from my phone and I haven't been able to recreate it. I also can't enter download mode or install a custom bootloader. Factory resetting is also blocked.
Any help is apprechiated.
