I forgot my password
is there any way to remove it? im on android 4.0.4 . I really dont want to delete everything

What password did you forget? The lockscreen's?
Do you have backups of any kind?
If you have backed up your data with titanium or an equivalent than you can just reflash the ROM.
If you want system data you can use the Aroma file manager or TWRP file manager if you have to pull that out.

Thanks for the info but i decided to wipe everything
I guess im going to try a couple of roms to see which one I like

WOW. Giving a lot of thought before creating a post that you solved yourself by doing exactly the opposite of what you create the post for lends towards:

Small firmware update. Will I lose root?

2 quick questions please. Will I lose ROOT, TWRP, X-Posed_______________ by flashing this and, when it says "download", will it install automatically too or just stick the file somewhere so I can use Chainfire's app to install it without losing ROOT?
I appreciate the help. Thanks

You can't update it when it's rooted, it will fail when installation started.

Thanks

Will it then still have the file saved so I can use Chainfire's app to install it do you know?

You can not install it any way.

There's a way it can update being root.. like you say, with chainfires flashfire

You can't update it, even with flashfire. But you can only flash whole updated stock firmware, and then flash root.

Need help removing the Custom ROM FRP (SM-G930W8)

I need help removing the custom ROM FRP lock in my S7 but i don't know the CSC or what carrier it was originally form as i got it used, anyone who can help would be in my debt. i should note that the Smart Switch method doesn't work as it wont connect properly via USB.
I am open to any and all solutions and/or alternatives.
would it be easier to just send it in or buy a octoplus stick?
EDIT: I don't have anything important on it so I'm fine if i have to reformat or wipe the PIT
EDIT2: I think it may have been Bell but I'm not 100% sure

I'm not sure what do you mean, you mean:
You have a custom ROM that has a FRP Lock? if so, then you probably have TWRP, which makes it super easy to solve!
You have a stock ROM, but you tried to play with OS probes and ended up with an error regards uncertified modifications? Then it's also easy to solve, check the internet, there are guaranteed ways of passing FRP even on Binary 8 Firmware.
The 2nd methods works if you can actually boot into system*
You may check the recovery and the logs to find what Firmware is on your phone, and which CSC/PDA it has, and yes, the stock recovery has the ability to show you them.

Question NEED HELP! Stuck in download mode

Hi guys,
I need help with my a12 (SM-A127F/DNS) (A127FXXU4AUK1)
I wanted to root my phone but it was stuck in Samsung logo screen, so I Downloaded remove root and now I'm completely stuck in download mode, not even recovery mode works and it's says this PLS help:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Assuming you're using a Windows PC and Odin.
Run Odin as administrator.
You'll need the exact OEM Samsung firmware for your device. Good thing you included the variant code of your firmware in your original post.
Here is one place you can find the file to download https://www.galaxyfirmware.com/model/SM-A127F/
After downloading, extract the zip. A few "tar.md5" files will be inside.
Using instructions from here, flash the original firmware onto your phone.
After reboot, the phone might restart a few times and launch into recovery. If it does, then select "format data" in recovery and reboot.
Phone should be back to factory ready for you to brick again.

Also if you want to try rooting again use patched magsisk

Question HELP PLEASE

I tried updating my phone manually with a batch file, using the official retail g100 rom, but it wouldn't finish the installation and now my phone is bricked
I updated it several times before using this method but it never gave me any issues until now
is there another way to install the official rom without losing any data or is it better to just switch to a custom rom, and if so, how do I go about doing it?
I'd really appreciate if you guys could help me asap

Can you access fastboot/bootloader mode?

yes

Did you use an old batch file or create a new one for the updated firmware?
If you are using an old one, chuck it and make a new one from the recent firmware. Possibly theres an extra sparse image part in there, that the old batch file isnt flashing.

I tried with a batch file from the previous version and then I created a new batch file but it still didn't work
