[Guide] disable frp lock J320A/AZ - Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Guides, News, & Discussio

It took me 2 weeks of contemplating the ethics of posting this info.
But if you search hard enough you'll find many different ways to accomplish this same task, so here it is.
While the methods I found are just workarounds, this way will disable frp all together.
Thanks to @Sh$llNinjA for sharing a engroot boot image.
An engineers boot image with an active root shell interface.

Fire up oden and load the boot into the AP section and flash.
Leave the phone hooked to the pc and after it boots up you can connect with adb
To make sure the pc can communicate with the phone start with
Code:
adb devices
.
If you can see the phone then you can follow up with
Code:
adb shell dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16
And that's it!!
Reboot and check it out.

Something went wrong on your Pixel Experience Rom, so I tried flashing the stock deodexed rom you made (from Pixperience with FlashFire with wipe), and had the same problem as @EzzBMTH. I then flashed the boot successfully thru Odin. It left download mode and I am now greeted with a nice black screen. I can't turn it on by pressing and holding power. Can you help?

---

Hmm, I'll investigate this farther this weekend... In the mean time you should be able to hold -vol and power to get into download mode and flash back to stock with Odin
[EDIT]
Oh wait... Just found the thread and see what your doing.
The eng_root selinux is not permissive, so if your rooted you'll see a black screen, but the adb commands work. After your done you must reflash eng_boot... Guess I need to update the OP

Reflash the eng_boot that is in the OP? Edit: ran adb commands while the screen was black. then went to download mode and FRP lock was off. Reflashed the boot image in OP, and phone is still black trying to boot. Edit the second: just so you know this (I should have put this in previous edit), I left my black screen phone plugged in all night, and it must have booted halfway overnight because in the morning it was stuck on the AT&T boot logo. I moved it to the download screen but pressed vol down to reboot, but it still was black. Then I decided to come back here and see what you said:

Can you please walk me through the steps of setting up adb on windows 7 PC. Really need to get this FRP lock off my phone. Thanks
Can you make this code in to a root.bat file for me so I can just click on it and inject this code???

Should do the trick.
I thought about making a script, but what's the point, it's just one command.
And remember, if your rooted, you'll have to reflash back to eng_boot when your done.

Just going to pay this guy 15 bucks to do it i installed adb but it dont see my phone and its probably because i cant enable usb debugging

@james2ya
Sucks it's not working... Don't think debugging matters with eng_root tho.
If I was you I'd test adb with another device first, if that fails maybe try a different installer

thank you very much worked perfectly but quick question to update to 7.0 should i flash back to eng.boot instead of root

---

@nc_blackout
Depends on how you install it...
If you let it update ota you'll need the stock boot.
If you update with Odin it does not matter.
If you root and update with flashfire, it depends on your root method.
