So, I rooted my phone, went to ROM Manager and pressed...something (not sure what). My phone then rebooted automatically and said "Custom binary blocked by Reactivation Lock". I gather this is because I didn't click some option on my phone before it restarted.
So then I started looking for ROM's or anything to bring the phone back online. I downloaded Odin and tried installing a ROM and I get "Custom Binary(RECOVERY) Blocked By R/L"
So now, I'm trying to download the stock firmware but, the problem is...I have no clue which firmware to use. I don't have access to much on my phone other then what I can see on the back of the phone.
SM-G925I UD
My provider is GCI out of Alaska and my phone is unlocked from the store. Which firmware do I use because from what I've read, SM-G925I is an international version and I'm not sure which I should use.
One thing to note...I'm the worst nerd ever when it comes to this. Thank you so much for any help you guys can give.
I did the same thing...

I have same phone, same carrier, and after rooting I was messing with different options and ended up with the same error message. After several hours of searching, trying different methods without success, I found a video on youtube called, "Samsung Smart Switch for PC Flashing Firmware to Galaxy S6 Edge" and I was able to reflash the phone to the stock firmware using the emergency recovery option "Device Initialization". I had to put in the s/n of the phone, hopefully you still have it on a label somewhere. Anyway, after the restore, it was upgraded from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1. and the Carrier boot animation was gone. Now time to re-root!
Hopefully you find a successful solution to your issue, good luck!

I have the same phone with the same carrier; I live in Anchorage. I haven't done much tinkering yet because I don't want to break my phone, but if this works-- I would really like to be able to root my phone and upgrade it to Marshmallow when it becomes available. Can either (or both) of you confirm that this method did work for you to get the SM-G925I rooted and working again with GCI?
Thanks!

[/COLOR]here is the firmware for the s6 edge g925i that i could find on the firmware section ..http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G925I/
Just download samsung kies on your computer, put your phone in download mode and then do a emergency software recovery (can be found from some option on samsung kies)
Have any of you other Alaskans with GCI successfully loaded Marshmallow onto your G925I? I managed to root my S6 Edge successfully using CF-Autoroot but I am hesitant to try and flash another firmware from Chile, or Uruguay, or India etc onto the device because I'm worried about disabling the radio or other region specific settings that will cause my phone to lose connectivity. I have made a full backup using Flashfire and backed up other relevant data but I would rather know about others' experiences before I recreate the same problems that have already been done over and over again. None of the firmwares available on sammobile.com seem to match up with what I have now (I attached a picture of my current firmware).
Any help or experience is very much appreciated.
Nougat and Going Strong
I'm just providing an update since there aren't a lot of links to S6 Edge and GCI Alaska on XDA. Since this phone is starting to get a little older and I had been successfully running Marshmallow for a year or so I decided to push my luck and see if I could get Nougat running. I'm very happy to say that after a couple of failed attempts with some other versions not running well, I installed Samstock 7.0 using the install instructions on https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...unified-development/rom-samstock-rom-t3649798 and I am pleased to say that it is running very smoothly and I am happy that I did so. I had pretty awful battery life with it at first, but after installing Root Booster and setting the basic battery saving option I am back to 24 hours or so between recharges. I couldn't be happier that this device which shipped with Lollipop has been upgraded all the way to Nougat and is still going strong.

Hi all,
Im new to the forum and did some searching but cant find the info i need. I tried rooting my verizon note 2 to casuals one click and didnt realize i had updated to android 4.3 prior. So it tried to root 4.1.2. Now my phone has the yellow triangle and says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." I tried kies and kies 3 and neither one recognizes my phone.The only way to shut the phone off is to pull the battery.When i reinstall the battery i have a brief window to volume down+home+power and it takes me to odin. I saw this problem in the forums for roms but couldnt find anything on rooting.Please tell me i can fix this and go back to stock, and i didnt lock my phone up for good.I know im an idiot and i didnt back up anything. Ive learned my lesson and will do more research before attempting this again.I also realized there is no root for 4.3 yet. My phone was stock before i tried all this. Its the verizon sch-1605.Any help is much appreciated. Thank you!

Couple of things:
- if you've received the 4.3 update, your bootloader is locked and (currently) un-touchable. Don't try to flash, well, anything.
- if you've received the 4.3 update, you've also received Samsung's odius KNOX technology. If you do try to flash anything most things (especially recoveries), you'll trip the KNOX counter and invalidate your warranty (I believe it also means you can't use your phone in enterprise setups that use KNOX)
The good news is that you can restore your phone to working order! You'll need to install the Verizon Software Upgrade Assistant. XDA member scoobysnack posted a link to download the software, though you can also get it from any functioning Verizon Samsung smartphone that's plugged into a computer.
After you've installed the software, turn your phone on and plug it into the computer. Run the software and select the tab on the left column titled 'Repair'. Click on the repair button near the right side and sit back & wait. The software will download the 4.3 OTA and install it. Like ODIN, it is imperative that you not unplug your phone during this process.
If you have trouble getting the software to recognize your phone, it may help to put it into download mode. I had to go through this myself (I foolishly forgot about the bootloader issue and tried to flash a recovery. Sigh).
You can achieve root for 4.3, but there are some serious concerns about Kingo, the software the provides root. XDA doesn't allow links to them due to unanswered questions about privacy concerns due to unusual traffic capture going between the software and (apparently) servers in China
thanks so much. ill try it in the morning when i get off work.
Also when i was in odin and plugged my phone in, the software on the pc didnt recognize my phone either. Is that something i should worry about. I guess the box was supposed to turn green but never did.Many thanks
ok so i got home today and tried downloading verizon software update from the link you gave and it wont open the program. Ive tried on 2 different computers. so i called verizon tech to see if they have it cause i can only find it on the website described eariler, and they said they dont have it. Its only in your phone. Well i cant access my phone to get it and im stumped. They said to go into a verizon store and they should be able to fix it. What are my options? I dont have any data on the phone i need to save so can i just go back to a previous version or wipe it out? Or do i have to do a custom rom? Thanks in advance.

When you go into ODIN mode (turn off your phone, power on using POWER+HOME+VOL-DOWN), do you a line that reads 'KNOX WARRANTY VOID'? It would be in the upper left corner under 'SYSTEM STATUS'.
I ask because if you don't have that line, you didn't upgrade to 4.3 and your bootloader is NOT locked. You should be able to flash to 4.1.2 from ODIN and go from there (CASUAL to unlock & root, et cetera).
If you do have that line, then your only option is the VZW Software assistant. I'm uploading it now and I'll send you a link via PM. Please keep in mind that if you use the VZW Software assistant, whether your bootloader is currently locked or not, it most definitely will be locked after using it. If you're already locked, no harm done, but I'd make sure first.
This will save you 8-12 hours of your time if you are lucky. This means that it also includes the meaningful links of 8-12 hours of searching. Sentences in italic are important. 1 link is for the Odin official website, the rest are re-links back into XDA.
The device in question is a SM-925T Tmobile S6 Edge.
The problem was this. I rooted my phone and messed around with Greenify and the Play store. To prepare for rooting, I allowed unknown downloads, unlocked the bootloader, and turned my security lock off (I had set it to a finger print lock). After I was done rooting, I immediately locked the bootloader again(<--A mistake that caused my bootloop/ soft-brick). After I was finished messing with the above apps (Greenify, etc), I wanted my phone to restart. So I held the Power button and selected restart, while I was on the lock screen (may not be important). I noticed that it took a long time to restart, and upon closer examination, I noticed another error under the "kernel is not seandroid enforcing" (which appears to be natural for rooted phones). The error was "Custom Binary blocked by FRP Lock". It was a new error. I investigated this new problem using the internet , and this dude was panicking like hell, but he didn't appear to fix his problem. He did hint that returning to the bootloader to its locked state was a mistake. Looked a bit more and this guy pointed to another thread, which introduced me to flashing and more importantly his fix, which was to flash the stock 5.1.1 image through odin. He used this link, which contains all the stock firmware for the majority of the new Samsung S6 and S6 edge versions. To make a long story short, most of these fixes involved flashing your firmware to the stock version. So I went to the Odin Website, and downloaded every version, as a couple threads have said that different versions worked for them. Here is a thread with everything you need for Odin. Now, after sorting through and finding micro USB cables that are detectable by Odin, an important step because Odin might develop a pattern of detecting then failing to detect your device through that cable, and testing all the usb 2.0 ports, I was ready, and had Odin with my stock firmware. Odin kept saying "NAND Write", then in the next line "FAIL". This was annoying as Odin wouldn't detect my device again unless I unplugged it, restarted it to download mode, then restarted Odin before plugging it back in. I got confused and found links for somehow fixing the .tar files, stock roms, .pit files (DO NOT MESS AROUND WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT THOSE THINGS DO), and other threads/websites that say to boot into recovery mode , factory reset, then wipe your cache. I could only do that once. After me messing around with all of the above file variants and supposed fixes to help with my issue, I couldn't boot into recovery mode, it got stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge" logo. It did not fix the NAND write failing. There however, are a lot of websites allowing you to download stock software for your phones, and I don't think I can link them as it might break a rule. Surprisingly, some have claimed that using a stock file for another device worked to fix their problem. This thread, which convinced me to use Smart Switch when it failed for everyone else, was very useful, although I recommend downloading Smart Switch from the official website of Samsung. None of the Odin flashing had worked so far, including the Roms and .pit files so I tried Smart Switch. I opened it, and upon selecting the "more" tab on the upper right corner, a bunch of tabs drop down. One should be "Emergency Software recovery and initialization". I had to find my S / N (Serial) number, and I was very confused on how to obtain that number as I was locked out. But to obtain it, do the same process to boot into download (hold volume down, home key, and power key), but stay on the prompt and don't go to the screen that has the word download in the middle. Don't do anything other then reaching the prompt confirming if you want to install a custom ROM. Then, press the home key and it should show your S / N number along with your IMEI number. Once I imputed the code I saw on my phone into Smart Switch, it told me to connect the device. Now, by this time, I realized that Odin only detects my device if it is actually in the download screen. Why shouldn't my computer? I booted into Download on my phone and followed the steps on my computer, making sure that the computer can recognize my phone while it is using a valid USB port and Cable. And after some waiting, for me, my problem was fixed and I could use my phone again, it reverted to it's out-of-box state. I hope this drawn out but very specific explanation helps you guys. It's my first post And also, this thread confirms that you can use a USB hub for flashing(at least for ROMS), Smart Switch, and for rooting.
Thank you for this detailed account, however nothing of the above has worked for me. Odin won't flash the firmware of 5.0.2 (and I tried 5.1.1) and Smart switch does not recognize the device to do anything. BTW phone has been rooted for months and last night decided to turn on its FRP lock randomly and now I'm stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Explain throughly what you have tried. Especially different ports, cables, and computers. Did you have the right device drivers? Did you do anything else?
I followed your footsteps and and the step where it has to show me the S/No and IMEI, it only shows IMEI number. I am unable to find the S/NO any suggestions?

5.1.1 has FRP lock auto turned on whenever you have a google account on the device... This is probably going to cause a lot of problems with all newer devices that get rooted. I even tried removing all google accounts, flashed recovery and flashed boot img back to stock after rooting and still FRP was bricking the device. I got supersu onto the device, all working fine for a 3rd time, as soon as I added a google account onto my device and restarted, it was FRP lock blocked and soft bricked again.... I used kies to restore to factory again, re-rooted it for the 4th time when I finally discovered an option in developer options called OEM unlock, Turning OEM unlock on turns off the FRP lock security feature.
My conclusion, If your going to root 5.1.1 make sure you remove all accounts from the device first, do not change google passwords for 72 hours prior to rooting, once rooted, YOU MUST TURN OEM Unlock ON in settings>developer options before adding any google accounts to the device.
Hi everyone!
I also got a Samsung S6 Edge + from a friend with custom binary blocked by FRP. I don't know what he was planning to do but I guess it was rooting.
He said he want me to backup any files before I try anything. Don't know how to proceed. But as suggestion, I want to ask if using "fastboot oem unlock" command would fix that.

I'm pretty sure fastboot isn't for Samsung devices. Hard to back up any files u less you can get into TWRP or the phone. If you flash stock firmware is highly likely the files will be wiped

There is no TWRP recovery on the phone. Yeah you're right about backing up files. I don't even know how to proceed and I can tell you I have huge experience on that stuff, rooting flashing custom recoveries and roms, etc... but in this case, I can't say if files can be backed up.

The only way is to 're flash the exact same firmware he is currently using now using the 5 files firmware package. But yo ensure csc_home is used so the data will not be wiped.

Thank you thank you thank you!!! This is exactly what I was looking for I had just rooted my note 4 running 6.0.1 and had no idea what the oem option was as no rooting method talked about it at all so naturally as soon as i added my Google account phone restarted and locked up.
Kies was the answer I needed as frp lock was active in download mode and my factory reset in recovery failed everytime but running Kies firmware upgrade and entering my model and serial number it installed perfectly in download mode with frp lock still active saved me alot of hassle ?
So I posted the following on a few other places
(please expand)
I am in desperate need of help . Yesterday, I woke up and went on my phone and it was acting strange. It was saying that apps that I wasn't using had stopped working or something like that, which was pretty weird, so I decided to restart it. However, when I tried to turn it on again, it got to the carrier screen (I have AT&T) it didn't do anything after. It just stayed on that screen and vibrated in a pattern. I was able to hold home + power + volume down to restart it, and I was able to get to the recovery options screen. I tried clearing the cache and all the data, but no luck. I tried flashing the stock firmware but I couldn't find anything new enough. I had rooted my phone about 5 days earlier, but it had worked perfectly fine up until yesterday. I tried everything I could think of and find online. I recently called AT&T up and they're sending me a new phone, but I have to send my phone to them, and I feel almost certain that they'll find that I've been messing with it. Whether it's the giant lock with the word "Custom" above it, or something in the files. I have 10 days to send it in to them and I need a way to either fix my phone, or wipe ALL of my phone's data before then, but I feel like completely wiping everything might void the warranty as well. I'm not even sure that the root caused the problem.
I do have friends who have the same phone as me, would it be possible to somehow get the most recent firmware off of one of their phones and get it on to mine? I have the G930A and I couldn't find firmware recent enough for my device. I have read A LOT about this issue in the past day and I vaguely remember something about being able to get someone at Best Buy or some other store to flash the most recent firmware onto the phone? Is something like that possible?
Please help, I can't afford the $600+ if it doesn't pass. Any and all ideas are welcomed. Thanks .
After reading some stuff here, I have found out that I can somehow make a backup of the stock firmware. I wouldn't actually be using my phone to make the backup since I don't actually have the stock firmware. I wouldn't be using my phone to make the backup, I have friends with the same phone and carrier. All I need is direction on how to do it. I have a Galaxy S7 (not the bomb edition) and my carrier is AT&T, although I'm not sure that's needed.
first do a factory reset then flash latest stock firmware from sammobile

Hello! I recently got into rooting hence my limited experience and being completely stupid to delete my Internal storage while trying to do a wipe. Before this problem I was trying to fix a soft brick caused by trying to download Xposed Framework. I am running 6.0.1. Marshmallow. My problems now are not being able to get the phone past boot, due to me not having an OS. I have access to ODIN mode, and my Custom Recovery, and I would like to have this sorted as soon as possible, thank you in advance
-Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge G925W8 running 6.0.1.
Install Samsung's Smart Switch on your computer - http://www.samsung.com/us/smart-switch/
Connect your device to your computer, and start Smart Switch.
When it connects to your device, click More at the upper right corner, then select Emergency Software Recover and Initialization.
Click the Device Initialization tab, click Ok, and then follow the instructions. Probably you will need your device's serial number.
Then just wait until Smart Switch downloads the exact firmware for your device and installs it.
It will format the phone clean, so you will lose the custom recovery, but you can always flash it back with Odin whenever you desire.

Either smart switch restore or just flash stock firmware with odin. Is your phone network locked? If not flash this...

If it is network locked which network?
Once back on I'll help you get xposed installed.
Is there any way to get my devices serial number? As my phone does not turn on and I haven't made a note of it.
Also yes, my phone is network locked sadly. It's locked to FIDO Mobile

It's written on the back of the phone. Since you also have access to your recovery, you could also just flash any ROM from there. Just be careful to pick a ROM for your device.

Download and flash this. It's for your model and network. Flash it through odin and it will work. If you get any errors quote me the errors you get and I'll help you fix it.
Download and extract the firmware.
Insert into odin in AP.
Check auto reboot and f reset time and UNCHECK repartition.
Put phone to download node
Plug into odin and start.
So a couple days ago I was given a new Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge from my dad's friend. At the time I was checking out the phone and was enjoying it until I noticed that I couldn't update the software because I was using an unauthorized system. I was also getting multiple popups from SuperSU. I looked up the app itself and I found out that the previous owner rooted the phone. Since it was rooted, I couldn't return this to a store or even access privacy mode for some reason. So I deleted my apps, and deleted my google accounts and tried to unroot the system myself by going on a few tutorials I would find on Youtube.
I downloaded the stock firmware and used Odin to flash it onto my phone to unroot it. It didn't worked as each time I tried I got brought to Recovery Mode a "dm-verity verification failed...." "Need to check DRK first...". I was unable to access normal mode because of it so I rooted the phone back myself since I was getting so inpatient and because I had to wait a while to download the stock firmware to begin with. I once again had a rooted phone with SuperSU installed again. This time though I decided to search SuperSU and I found the option to unroot the system in the app itself.
Since I was curious to see if it actually worked this time around I just pressed it and the cycle followed. I couldn't access Normal Mode and downloading the stock version didn't work either because again "dm-verity verification failed...." "Need to check DRK first...". This time it was much worse than last. I found out that FRP is enabled if the google account is still on the phone, so I couldn't reroot again and any custom firmware would fail when flashed. I tried removing the google accounts through my PC but it didnt seem to work. I tried everything, from Smart Switch, to different firmwares, to trying to flash fixes, to extracting firmware without cache.img .
Every problem I had went hand in hand as I couldn't download customize firmwares because of FRP being on, and I couldn't access the normal mode to remove my accounts because I keep getting booted to recovery mode because dm-verity and drk failed. I wasn't able to update from ADB either because my phone is only recognized by other devices when in Downloading mode. It's been about 3 days since Ive been trying to fix this but nothing seems to be working.
Please, if you know how I can fix this mess please help me out. Thanks
My model is SM-G925T
