(Desperate need of help!!) J5 FRP locked, phone got bricked. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I own a Samsung SM-J500F/DS
I wanted to factory reset it but, I forgot my google password and i couldn't find it no matter what i tried.
I decided to hard reset it thinking that i can bypass the google password thing. It obviously came up afterwards and I realized I also forgot the google account.
AGAIN, i tried to flash a new firmware using Odin, but the FRP lock came up and blocked the installation. It showed failed and the phone was bricked.
I tried Kies and Smart Switch but both don't recognize my phone at all. I can't use the emergency recovery tool cause my phone literally doesn't show up anywhere. It does on Odin but i can't install the firmware i have downloaded.
Now it doesn't boot up at all and Just shows me the blue screen with "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software." All i can do is enter in download mode. In the upper right corner it says i have:
-the samsung official binary
-system from samsung too,
-FRP LOCK on obviously
-Qualcomm secure boot enabled
-RP SWERV: S1, T1, H1, R1, A1, P1
-SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE
Every possible help/solution is well appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Samsung A520F Dual stuck on Stock Recovery

Hello Gurus,

if i tried using sd card at stock recover than gave error - footer is wrong, signature verification failed
Current OS - Stock Samsung 7.0

is there any way enable usb debug from Stock Recovery ?

Hello,
I have Samsung A5 2017, my cell has virus attack and every minute it restart automatically, all things are stocks so not able to reflash,reset device
is there any way usb debugging enabled from recovery/download mode ?
Not adb, but hold volume down while the phone is starting. A watermark will appear, "Safe Mode", the "virus", if not a root exploit, will not load and you could uninstall it. Also remove it from the device administrators & accessibility settings. If it doesn't work, hold volume up. If it doesn't work, press and hold the menu/recents key when the "SAMSUNG" logo and the brightness changes.

If you know your Google account details and you don't mind losing all your data reset your device.
It's unlikely it has compromised the system partition unless you were rooted.
If you were rooted then you may as well just wipe data with twrp.
Failing that reinstall the stock firmware.
nothing worked, i think virus at boot level, because can able to enter stock recovery, after factory reset result is same, tried with safe mode, but not work, not able to connect internet and reset device because it turn only 50 Seconds and rebooted, if i tried with odin than got error - FRP Lock, i also tried google device reset from web but it required internet connection on phone , so this option also not worked

If you have installed the correct firmware with odin and factory reset and your device still has issues then your problem is not related to a virus. More likely a hardware issue.

May be, but when i tried to install Custom Recovery CWM, TWRP it gaves message - custom binary blocked by frp lock
If i tried same firmware - then stuck without any reason - log say - recovery.img cancelled
why i think this is virus because i enabled usb debug and after auto reboot again its shows disabled , even i change wallpaper and reboot its showing same old wallpaper, means anything i do after 50 seconds revert back as it is, one kind device is locked

You can't install anything custom until OEM UNLOCK is enabled in settings.
Install the stock firmware with odin then factory reset in stock recovery.
You will need to enter your Google account details once the device has fully booted to disable FRP.

Yes, i tried , but not successes, after complete reboot i get 50 Seconds only, in this time period i can only enable usb debug, but when i enabled OEM unlock option, its automatically turn off without any error, and device reboot, so neither able to uninstall anything nor accessing via adb because 50 seconds its too less
even i connect with pc and try to format phone memory , after reboot all deleted file again available, even renamed files back to with same name

Forget about USB debugging it's not going to help you right now. I would try enabling OEM UNLOCK and then immediately power down the device BEFORE it reboots.

Help: Tab S3 is in FAP Lock Mode

Hi,
I can't use my tablet anymore tried Odin to re-install the origin firmware "SM-T825Y_1_20180122165040_zf84f94qoe_fac.zip" (new android 8 stock ROM) but it fails, Odin shows the transfer has PASSED but I still get this message in the screen:-
"Security Error: This device has been flashed with unathorised software & is locked.
Call your mobile operator for additional support. "
I wasn't planning flashing a custom ROM the only thing I did is put OEM Lock on, not sure why I did that.
When I put in Download Mode it shows this in the screen:-
ODIN MODE [High Speed]
PRODUCT NAME: SM-T825Y
CURRENT BINARY: CUSTOM
SYSTEM STATUS: CUSTOM
FAP LOCK: ON
OEM LOCK: ON
DID: 03EA1E00AE16
WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 (Ox20C)
QUALCOM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
AP SWREV: B3 (1, 1, 1, 1, 1) K2 S2
SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE
CCIC: S2 MM005 HW: 4
BOOT: 6 MAIN: DS
Regards,
Sal.
1. It's FRP not FAP ya perv.
2. Reflash firmware with odin, do not go into download mode afterwards before 3.
3. The rest watch this video carefully, and next time you want to leave your device stock, leave it stock, if you want to install a custom rom or twrp, do not have auto reboot ticked.
4. here is link ---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0T-CR-KpfM
I did reflash with odin but I still get this message "Security Error: This device has been flashed with unathorised software & is locked.
Call your mobile operator for additional support. " There is another small message on top , "Custom binary blocked by FRP. (boot.img)"
Odin tells me its PASSED but the Tablet still says its locked FRP and OEM locked .
In download mode I am getting same info.
I just went to the Samsung Shop and they fixed it for free, they said they just put a new firmware not sure how they did it but I tried it myself with latest firmware but I couldn't get rid of the lock, I am missing something? like software? or just not enough info about about getting rid of locks?
I had the same issue after i installed a Xposed module. Had to reflash Pie Bootloader and Rom via odin. Now it boots, but i can't flash twrp anymore... It always fails.

Galaxy S7 Edge soft-bricked / Odin gets stuck

Hello androids, I have a big problem or a good challenge, depends on your optimism. I've been looking for and trying solutions for hours and hours, but I think I've come across a wall and I need your help:
Originally I wanted to root my s7 Edge / SM - G935F (OS Marshmallow 6.0.1) by following a tutorial using an autoroot ROM for this phone. I remember I had USB debugging and OEM unlock enabled. I also installed the USB / ADB drivers correctly.
I used Odin v3.11, since they recommended using it for this mobile and MM 6.0.1. According to Odin, the rom was installed successfully, but my phone entered a loop with the Samsung logo and "RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING". Something failed in the process and I decided to install a S7 Edge stock ROM in 8.0.0 from SAMMobile (this one) with Odin v3.13 using HOME_CSC so that I don't lose certain data
Unfortunately everything was going well until just at the end when "hidden.img" did not process correctly and resulted in FAIL. I've been since then stuck with this error:
"An Error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency Recovery in the Smart Switch PC Software."
It won't even turn off. From there I can only access the Download Mode and neither the Smart Switch or the ADB & Fastboot console won't detect the device. Odin does recognize the phone, but every time I try to install a rom, the log gets stuck in "SetupConnection ..".
I have tried a bunch of solutions such as removing the "hidden.img" from the package, reinstalling the drivers, changing the USB port, changing Odin's version, installing only the BL, etc., but nothing shows progress...
I'm sorry if during the process I managed to do some stupidity that I am not aware of. Other phones I have never had problems, but now I feel defeated and lost. I need a savior! :crying:
Any way to make Odin work, ADB detect my device or access a working bootload? Thanks in advance!

Stuck in locked bootloader download mode

Hey all, hope everyone is having a great day (I'm not),
I own a SM-T510 Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 WiFi.
It all started when I tried to flash Nexus and it worked partially, but I didn't gain access to my internal storage for some reason, so I reverted back to stock rom.
Then for some reason part of the nexus rom was still there, but I was afraid of damaging my device further.
For some reason, netflix wasn't working, so I tried to apply a software update to my device using Smart Switch.
The update didn't work and I was caught in a Nexus bootloop. I entered download mode and I tried flashing twrp using odin. I thought it worked until I realised that it wouldn't get past the teamwin screen.
I re-entered download mode and there it gave me an option to factory reset the device while locking the bootloader. This is where I screwed up as I thought what else could possibly happen to my device?
SO I locked my bootloader and whatever I did I couldn't get out of download mode. AND here I screwed up even more. I tried to flash the stock ROM again using odin as a last resort but it just wouldn't complete after 10 minutes, so I closed Odin and restarted my device and here I am, stuck in a screen that says, "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software." Now obviously this wouldn't work because my device isn't even listed there. But to note, my device is recognised by Odin and my PC.
Note: I am an absolute noobie at rooting so be easy on me.
Note 2: adb and fastboot doesn't work for me for some reason, my powershell says, "The term 'fastboot' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.
Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again."
Thank you all for any help. I am at my wit's end.
