Hey,
So I'm attempting to flash a stock ROM from Samsung on my S6 using ODIN and download mode. It does not allow me to do so, there is a 'FAILED' dialogue in ODIN and on the phone, it says 'SECURE CHECK FAIL: BOOTLOADER'. I tried Googling the answer and nothing showed up at all. How can I fix this problem.
BTW, I've tried flashing TWRP, CMW, a custom ROM, stock ROM, a custom bootloader, a custom 'pit' file and tried using Samsung Kies' emergency restore feature, none of which worked.
Hey guy... try this, flash newest CF AutoRoot by ChainFire via odin... then let it finish and boot... now your rom should back to stock recovery.. then flash arter97+twrp... now you can restore (if you have one) or flash new rom via custom recovery.... good luck.
I have an S4 SGH-I337 I'm trying to fix for a friend. It's stuck in a boot loop, but I'm still able to get into "Recovery Mode" and "Download Mode". The phone is not "USB Debugging" enabled, and is bootloader locked ATT... I assume. Owner says its still stock and he didn't try to flash or unlock it in any way. I've installed Odin v.3.10.7 and tried to flash a stock ROM from Sammobile.com, but got the message : Failed (Auth). When I tried another ROM I found on a blog about fixing a soft-bricked s4, I was able to get a PASS on Odin. I rebooted into recovery and cleared cache/factory reset after it finished but still have a bootloop. I tried adding a PIT file to the process and still bootloop. Why doesn't the ROM from samobile.com work if it's a stock ROM? Are there any other files I can flash like a new bootloader or whatever, or just the two I tried? Is it possible the hardware is fried? I'm not ready to give up yet.
Hopefully someone can help. I've a Samsung Glaxy G925F here which has been completely wiped, it's got nothing on it. It can't even boot up. The only thing on it is TWRP recovery. How would I go about getting the phone up and running again? I've tried flashing the stock ROM on to it, but get an error saying "Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary'".
Any help would be appreciated.
Tried flashing matching pit, and than fw through Odin?
Or Smart Switch emergency initialization with phone sn?
I recently bought an S7 and wanted to root. It's my first Samsung phone so the software is new to me so apologies if there is an easy answer. I (extremely stupidly) re-enabled FRP lock within Android after rooting (hoping that it was stop the unauthorised actions warning). This now means when i start the phone it states "Custom Binary Blocked by FRP lock" and would not boot in to Android. I've read some threads but the current situation is:
1) When i tried to boot it would not boot to Android and stuck at the first splash screen and warning. Whilst i had rooted i did not flash twrp so only have the stock recovery.
2) I went in to the stock recovery and did a factory reset and cache clear. No change.
3) I tried Smart switch and kies - no luck - both said un-supported device or hung on connecting
4) I went to the thread with the most recent stock download (Netherlands) and downloaded that. I tried to install that and it hung for about an hour. I disconnected and it now says "An error has occurred whilst updating the device software" and does not boot.
So i cannot boot in to Android, have no custom recovery and KIES/SmartSwap do not work.
Any ideas????!?!?
Download the latest MM stock rom and try to bypass the frp lock.

Flash latest nougat Stock rom from sammobile using The latest ODIN software. You shouldnt disable OEM unlock next time you root/install custom recovery to your phone or else this will happen again, and you'll have to flash stock firmware again.
Hey guys. I'm in a hell of a bind and could use some help.
My Galaxy Note 5 (N920T, rooted) was running fine on this ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...m-qc6-lite-rom-bloated-knoxed-odexed-t3598686 ; however, I had disabled OEM unlock at one point to try and fix a random app I was playing with. The battery died not long after, causing the phone to reboot. On power, it failed to boot due to custom binary block from FRP, so I decided to try and run the usual troubleshooting of flashing a stock ROM via Odin. Stock images will flash (tried 5.1.1, 6.1, and 7); however, when they try to install I get the error for no DRK. Sometimes I'll also get a dm-verity error as well... So I then tried to flash TWRP or any recovery via Odin to let me fix this issue; however, any custom recoveries I try to flash are being blocked by FRP.
So, I'm in a loop. I can't use my initial ROM because FRP, however I also can't install a stock ROM because of missing DRK, AND I can't fix the DRK or verity errors because I can't install a recovery capable of doing so because of FRP.
IMEI is intact when I look into Download mode, but I can't seem to get anything to work. I've tried the FRP Tool and crack, but that gives me FRP blocks as well (USERDATA).
Am I boned?

Anyone?
same situation, going to try flashing it to stock. Can we just flash a stock bootloader or do we need to start over?
Got it working by flashing stock rom with odin so maybe not exact same situation as you. Hard to find a filehosting site with good download speeds and spent all day trying to get latest stock note 5 firmware. Well good for now.. All started because of a wrong flip of a switch *bangs head on desk*
You need to do a few things. First you need to wipe everything in TWRP including format data, so love your files to some other storage. In Odin go to options and turn off auto reboot. Turn on f reset time, phone bootloader update and Nand Erase All. You need to know that this doesn't always work, if you can't unlock it this way try disabling encryption after flashing stock and TWRP and flash Magisk. Let me know how it goes.

Got as far as getting the firmware flashed via Odin, but when I first boot I get "Device does not have DRK" error. I cannot install TWRP or any custom recovery through Odin due to FRP lock.

if all you are getting is frp lock just flash back to stock like I did and start over rooting etc.

That's not all. Basically, it goes,
Flash back to stock
Reboot
Can't finish ROM install because DRK is unavailable
Can't install anything in locked, stock android recovery
TWRP, autoroot, etc. is blocked from Odin by FRP

No. It started because you didn't back up your phone properly with twrp before going flash crazy
