Good morning all,
I bought a Nexus 9 tablet on eBay which had a few hardware problems which I easily managed to overcome and I have a fully functioning tablet.... except that upon booting it has FRP. I have managed to get in to the settings, and have a launcher installed with a sidebar so it is easy to access, but it still misses all the key features which makes the tablet usable. The issue I'm facing is that it is running 7.1.1 with a locked bootloader and I can't access developer options via the build number taps
So my questions are:-
1. Is there a working bypass for FRP yet for 7.1.1 that someone has found? (all the ones I have found don't work)
2. Is there a way to unlock the bootloader without developer options? (I have searched everywhere and haven't found anything viable)

Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone recently has developed a way to bypass the root check for Mobile Iron.
Moreover, I think you cannot bypass Mobileiron protection that avoids unlocking bootloader. It does not allow even pressing several times on 'compilation number' just to show developer options (USB debugging, specifically). It seems not to work even with a factory reset. So, it seems the definitive method to avoid rooting
Good evening all.
I have an SGP771 which I have owned for over a year now. I have been reading up about rooting and flashing this device. At the moment I am in a quandary as to whether I can unlock the bootloader or not. When I enter. *#*#7378423#*#* into the dialer and look at the Configuration menu from the service menu the Rooting status reads as Bootloader Unlock Allowed: No. When I enter the Developer Options there is a toggle for OEM Unlocking - Allow the bootloader to be unlocked, which I have switched to on. Developer options are also switched on.
Can anyone tell me if there is any way to root and flash this device?
Many thanks.
Hello @weazil60
Did you make it unlocking your bootloader ? I ve got the same issue with my z4 tablet.
Maybe I am going to apply this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/z4-tablet/general/guide-safe-bootloader-unlock-restore-t3362391 to see if I can unlock my bootloader that way (they did nt say there are cases it should not work) ...
I am interested in installing LineageOS but not sure if LineageOS plays well with the physical bkb50 bluetooth keyboard ...
Good evening Pierro78.
Unfortunately I received no replies and decided just to stick with using Firefox Focus to avoid ads (this was my main issue).
If you are successful with your modification please let me know.
Best of luck - weazil60.
I got this phone from a friend who also got it from a friend and its FRP locked. I have ODIN and I have not been able to find any firmware for this device. I seen some paid for but it looks risky. Any details on that? I would take it to stores but they will do nothing except a select few that I'm not trying to venture to. Obviously this is newer OS and stuff so I think it may require a bit more than just firmware, I keep hearing about some bootfile that looks different than the .md5 file or whatever it was... any help? Ive been able to get a quick settings app on it and i can get into settings but not developer options, I can't seem to disable google play services to bypass it, no successful root apps, running android marshmallow ?????

Hi bro.
Sorry to hear about the problem. I know the hassles of getting phones from someone else. You're not to clear on your problem. I assume you cant get into settings and therefor you had to download a 3rd party quick settings app. If possible go to settings and then "About". Look for "Software Info". There tap on the build number until you see a notification stating you are now a developer. Go back to main settings screen and developer options should be listed at the bottom. In developer options there should be an option for "OEM Unlock", turn it on and tr flashing again. If this is not possible try searching the settings for "Re-Activation Lock" and turn it off. Insert your password when promted and try again. If all this is not possible or fails then try Samsung Tool Pro. I cant post the link but just google D3X Samsung Tool Pro with loader. This tool is helpful for unlocking and bypassing FRP as well as flashing firmware, recovery's etc.
Feel free to ask for help
I used Nova for a forced launched homescreen and got into the settings that isn't the hard part. The hard part is the OEM Unlock. Been trying that build number a million times hoping something would do different and no sucess. I already have ODIN and Pro Tools but even they don't have the SM-S327VL firmware to fix this. I was thinking about re-partitioning it with odin... I know it's risky but if I brick it I would have to wait for the firmware anyway?. I cant flash a thing without any firmware. So far I haven't been able to find it on the samsung website or any others. I seen some that wanted money for them but I don't trust it. Can anyone confirm any? HhEeLlPp???
Finally disabled all google apps but I can't get rid of Knox
Frp bypass
I unlocked my phone on my own. I used an app called Test DCP and it became a device owner and then I restarted my phone and it was done. Good app????

Hello, guys, I have a galaxy A10 in which it does not appear oem unlock, I've tried all the tutorials on the internet but none of them work, I have this device since the launch in Brazil, at the time it was android 9, and this oem unlock option always appeared, but as at the time it didn't have a custom rom yet (or I haven't found any) I left it disabled, now in 2021 I saw several custom rom for my device, but after upgrading to android 10, I was no longer able to have the option of oem unlock, I will pass the current configuration of my device.
Galaxy A10 (105M/DS)
Android 10
security patch March 1, 2021
build number A105MUBS6BUC2
is there any way to still be able to root and unlock the bootloader?
I don't care if I have to install rom from other countries, I just want to be able to root and install custom roms.
About the tutorials I saw on the internet, they were just the most common ones like delaying the date and looking for an update, I saw a tutorial in which the person left and entered the developer settings until it appears, I already did a hard reset and tried to make oem unlock appear with all the tutorials.

I forgot to mention, when I go into download mode, instead of being in the prenormal, mine is in normal.

Hello! So I am on a journey to attempt to root a Samsung tab a7 lite sm-t227u. So I want to be extremely transparent as to my reason for rooting:
I was given this tablet by my father whom got it from a previous job. When he left the job they never asked for it back, a long with a good bit of supplies he had that he got to keep.
So, I have this tablet, I can get into it as it doesn't have a passcode. I have wiped it by factory reset as well. However, it has IBM's MAAS360 installed and after factory reset AND a firmware flash using odin I still cannot get rid of this maas360 mdm. It is not Knox locked. I can activate developer mode and change all those settings, but I cannot download any apps through the app store at all or enable unknown source app install as those are under an IT block. I also do not have the OEM unlock option in dev options. I've tried the whole changing the date and connecting to wifi, with and without sim card but I cannot get this option to show, nor can I unlock the bootload through fastboot.
I have read that most of the new samsung phones do not have a bootloader unlock option, but from what I can tell that is specific to the snapdragon phones, and this tablet is running a mediatek chip.
Now, if I can remove mdm restrictions without rooting that's great, but I have a feeling that is the only way to properly flash this thing to completely remove the mdm.
I have tried the recovery tar that is posted in this forum but I cannot get it to flash, likely because I still don't have an unlocked bootloader
Have any of you all faced something similar or know of a solution? I may call the company the mdm is managed by and just see if they will remove it from their system, but I find it highly unlikely.
SM-T227U is an American model wich doesn't have the OEM unlocking option, you could unlock using unofficial ways but those are not pretty "stable".

Hey man! Still got your tab 7? I also have a SM-T227U and have oem unlocked! After doing the usual stuff, you will want to turn off automatically update in developer settings. After that, go to settings>General management>Date and time and select manual time and date, and set it for exactly 10 days before the day you attempt this. OEM unlock will appear in dev settings!!!
Then turn off device and while holding power up + power down, plug into PC. It will show the pre-download mode screen where it asks if you want to continue. Just follow the on screen instructions to unlock bootloader!
*note that the bootloader unlocking results in an unavoidable factory reset**

Sweet! I will absolutely try this when I get home this afternoon, will report back with results!
But just for clarity. Let's say I start with a freshly wiped tablet. Go through set up and connect to wifi, do I need to add a Google and Samsung account? Then in dev settings, enable USB debugging, also enable wifi debugging? Then change the date. Is there any step I am missing?

If it has Mediatek chipset then you can use SP flash tool to format the tablet firmware and reflash it.
I would strongly recommend you to backup the NV DATA and NVRAM files before you format the tablet.

You can follow this guide actually! ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...220-t225-install-lsposed-magisk-mods.4406933/) it recommends just skipping the setup junk
I have found that many times, rooting methods work across different models of the same device unless there are some sort of major differences in chipsets or some sort of random change lol
The only thing that doesn't seem to work for our model is section V of the guide which is for the removal of the "bootloader is unlocked" screen at startup. so you will still need to press the power button on that screen to boot up. It's a tiny hassle, but otherwise no big deal in my personal opinion
Make sure to read all the way to the end of the root section (section 4) and especially remember step 7. I retried probably 4 times and even patched the entire AP file of the firmware for use in odin (doing this gives a second warning on Knox screen that it isn't samsung official fw then boots normally into the bootlogo screen) before realizing everything was going fine.. I recommend just using the patched Magisk boot.img first just because I find it unsightly
Just flash the boot.tar in the AP slot. Don't download any of the boot imgs from the guide because they are for the t220's and t225's. I'll link the one I made according to the guide below. It'll save you some time and you won't need to install zarchiver and Magick just to have it factory reset again lol. Just download the latest Magisk apk (26.1) from the official github (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases) and install it when you have completed the 2nd factory reset/the patched boot img install.
