Hi,
I can buy a phone which has the following lock. Can this one be resetted or is it hard bricked?
The translation for the lock sreen is:
the phone has been blocked due to unpaid invoices. in order to restore the ability to use the device, you must pay the outstanding invoices
Short answer. The only way you can legally unlock it is to pay what is owed. I hope you didn't pay that much.
Hard reset from recovery menu, do not connect to the internet, unlock bootloader, flash twrp. That will brick Knox which is used to block the phone. Then flash Samsung firmware again. You will loose Samsung pay, secure folder forever but phone will be usable. Warranty will be void. But the best idea is not to buy it at all.

1.) No Malware or any harm application is installed in the device.
2.) Owner uses strong password (no pattern, no pin, no smart unlock).
If it is possible, then who can unlock it?
-Can Google company unlock it, If it wants?
-Can phone manufacturer unlock it, if it wants? (like Samsung, One plus, Sony etc).
-Can service center's unlock it, if they want?
-Can FBI/NSA or any one in the world unlock it?
If it can be unlocked, then what information can be retrieved?
Do they need to reset the phone, in order to unlock it, or phone can be unlocked without any reset, and they can access the data.
Nothing is impossible, but just tell me as far as you guys know.
Hello guys,
Can anyone introduce a way to unlock the pattern of Samsung a30s-fn (a307fn) with Android 10?
The bootloader is locked and the phone has a warranty.
ADB is detected on the computer and known the device, but the ADB shell does not open.
If you know the path of the pattern lock file, state the address, or if you know an other way, help meeeeee.
Certainly, your efforts are well appreciated.
I´ll be honest with you, I have no idea of how to unlock a device like that.
So if you want to use the phone, I´ll recommend you to save the important files and factory reset on recovery.

This could help, but I feel you can damage your device.
If either Samsung or Google find my device junk is active I think you can use that.
This why I never password lock a phone.
You will lose access sooner or latter even though the device is right in front of you.
A hardware failure is all it takes.
Hi, My wife dropped her P30 and now the screen is broken. She has a new phone as the contract was up anyway, but I would like to try and get acess to the device somehow to retrieve some data. The screen is just black - no interaction at all. There is a passcode on the phone as well which was unlocked via fingerprint or code.
Is there any software that will allow me to mirror the phone and access it? All the software I've tried so far wants you to install an app on the device itself which is obviously impossible.
Any ideas?
Thanks
replace the screen, is about the only option.
a phone repair center may be able to recover the data with a spare screen if they have one available to boot into the phone, obviously passcode etc will be needed to access the data. even hisuite will need the phone to be unlocked before any backup is possible.
Hi guys.
I tried to use online foreign banking. I only see a warning screen, “you are using a device with removed system protections” (on Cyrillic), and if I press OK, it closes. The UBB mobile app is on the Google store. I called the bank’s customer service, and they could not explain what that exactly meant. I put a lock screen and turned on the device protection – no security issues. The last time I spoke to technical support, she recommended buying another phone, but not A53 5G, saying it is compromised. Very frustrating!
Today, contacted Samsung tech support. She logged in to my phone and didn’t find any issue. She recommended doing a factory reset, assuming some incompatibility with another app.
I tried it on my old Pixel 1, with no problem – no warning screen and I could see the home page.
Guys, please do me a favor to install this app and see if you will see the same warning screen. Do you have the same issue? So I will know if only my phone has this problem or all A53s.
Is your phone rooted?
Or is knox tripped, when you go to the bootloader, does it say that knox warranty is void?
Usually says Knox WARRANTY VOID: 0x01 in the bootloader
It is not rooted. I don't know what Knox tripped is.
Hello all,
I know already that this might not be possible but I have to ask anyways. My father recently passed away unexpectedly and he has just recently bought a galaxy flip 4 (before he had a galaxy S21).
Now he still has some photos on there he recently took (Google backup is off).
I already tried unlocking the phone via Samsung find my phone but I always get the message, that the function is not enabled in the phone.
Same goes for the S21 which I also can not unlock.
The time between unlocks is already at 48h because I've tried all the numbers I could find around the house.
Is there a possibility of either:
1. Unlock the device by rooting or patching a file in recovery mode or someway else?
2. Is it possible to enable the unlock function for find my phone somehow?
3. Is it possible to reset the counter for failed unlock attempts? Because I have the feeling it has no upper limit and will just double in time forever... I may find the correct pin eventually but I need more tries.
If any of the above is possible for the S21 then this would work too because he just switched phone 2 days before he passed and the files are still pretty much identical.
If you can help and need proof of possession or anything from me to proof that this is indeed the phone of my dad please write me a pn.
I would really love to have the last pictures taken ...
I'm so sorry about your loss. I have great news! I've recently had to bypass the FRP Google lock and after many hours of research, I was able to finally find a reliable program that was free and free of viruses. I can confirm it works on the Flip4 because that's the phone I used it on. https://samfw.com/blog/samfw-frp-tool-1-0-remove-samsung-frp-one-click

Thanks a lot, I will give it a try!
@melymoon
I've tried this tool but I can't get into the engineering mods by entering the code into the emergency call pad.
Therefore the tool doesn't detect my phone.
It is also not recognized if I go to ADB update in the recovery menu.
How did you do it?
I got you, do you have time right now? I can work on it with you before my kid wakes up
You don't need the engineering service menu right right now, to remove the lock. I'll walk you through it.
I have a z flip 4 5g and I'm locked out of it and I cannot factory reset it and I do not have on USB debugging. Is there a way to enable USB debugging on locked z flip 4?
Can't you just factory reset it in the recovery menu?
I thought the whole idea of this post was to save the data? Everything mentioned here pretty much is gonna wipe the phone. Which leads to all that's trying to be done is bypass factory reset protection. If you have death certificate you can get Google and samsung to release the locks accordingly and it can be factory reset from the recovery menu.
From there. Frp bypass is a very gray area on xda and most people will not help.

I'm in the same boat and have everything installed and ready to go. Is there any chance you could assist? Many thanks
