Hello!
A friend of mine, who owns a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, set her lockscreen up to pin lock, but forgot the pin code. So she gave me her phone to find a solution to
1. backup the internal storage (photos) without unlocking it, so we can wipe it afterwards via its recovery menu
or
2. bypass the lockscreen?? losing her installed apps and stuff is not a problem. She just wants her photos to be save.
Samsungs "Find my phone" is not working because she did not activate the needed options.
Any help is aprecciated.
Vulnerability where Samsung phones respond to USB when locked.
Or forgot pin reset with Google option from Lockscreen.

thanks. my phone is s6 edge and hasnt sd card slot. so how can i download this file via TWRP to my phone?
can i download file with TWRP from my pc?
Download TWRP (3.0.0.x for 6.0.1 android) md5.tar extension and flash via Odin in AP section, make sure to turn off auto reboot, click start and should finish. Then hard turn off and turn on into recovery. You should be able to now use usb and transfer the .zip across to your device and install it, if not ADB push the file to storage
Hi.
Before my question I'll write about my experience because I am sure it will help many many people.
As many of you, I always ROOT my smartphones.
Nowadays, the new phones, they come with this new technology to avoid root and other things called " OEM Lock " under the Developer's Options.
Following every step provided in the root guide for you phone, the new step to enable OEM Unlock under Developer Options
is a must!
The only thing that they don't say is that you MUST leave OEM Unlock ALWAYS ENABLED during and AFTER the root, and not only during the root
process.
Not knowing that, what did I do? Right After rooting my Samsung Note 5 I disabled the OEM Unlock. When I restarted the smartphone, it got into something called FAP Protection Black Screen where you are not able to leave not even if you try to root the phone again with the img file!
If you get in the FAP Protection Screen, like I did, despair will take over, I promise! And Google will not help you!
Is there a solution?
I found one, but not in any Google Page.
You need to download the firware img file for your phone, exactly same model,
in my case it was SM-N920G (Samsung Note 5), and for your specific country. Luckily for my phone it was not so hard to find, just hard to download (1,7GB with average 15 kB/s speed!). You will find different versions, some related to a Phone Company Operator that your country has, other related to no operator at all (sure I chose that).
After you get the firware file, just use Odin with that file to flash the phone, just like how you did to root the phone, but now, instead of using the root img file with Odin Software, you'll use the firmware file. That will not only solve the problem and give you access to your phone again, but in my case the Operator Flag disappeared and the data and apps installed miraculously were intact! I was pretty sure I was supposed to lose everything, but that didn't happen!
I'm sure what I wrote above will help many desperate people out there!
Now, my main question here:
You can never disable OEM Unlock in your life, with a rooted phone, period! So, it's really dangerous to leave the developer options enabled, allowing anyone that uses the phone to change it, even if by accident. In my case, as another example, besides rooting my phone, I rooted my father's phone too (because it was previously mine). I'd like to avoid by any means that by any chance me, or my father, disable to the OEM Unlock.
So, my question:
If I disable the Developer Option in order to "hide" it, will the changes that I did inside it remain working perfectly? I'm afraid that if I disable the developer options, somehow, it might take every option inside it back to the "default", just like it was before I enabled the developer Options, meaning in this case, OEM Unlock would get DISABLED again!
Is it safe to disable the Developer Options when OEM Unlock is Enable and MUST Remain like that?
Thank you.
Lost a night of sleep for the same problem with a Samsung S8.
This should be added to *every* mod guide.
In my case was worse too...if you root the phone and wipe data, when you open first time developer option you'll find "OEM Unlock" disabled (but I assume it's enabled at bootloader level). So when I check / uncheck it I doom my phone to lock on next restart...
how to get to boot menu on htc u12 plus, smallest width setting got adjusted wrong in developer options and power got cycled, all I can see on lock screen are 1,2 and 3 cant unlock, any ideas?
Hi,
I am in fatal situation, where I set temporarily random pattern for lock screen and now I cannot unlock the phone.
The device is Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo, with android 6.0. I cannot factory reset it at all cost.
I tried everything but I have found one solution that I am unable to test, because of errors. Here are my questions:
1. Can I unlock the phone using aromafm? I do not have custom recovery, so there is a message about unsigned zip. I even signed it using sign-app but there is another error about "whole file verification" or something similar and it doesn't start.
2. Can I install custom recovery without unlocking my phone? Do I have to root my phone? If yes, can I root it without unlocking?
3. Debug is disabled, but if I could enable it somehow, then it could work. Is there any method? Like bypass lock screen and turn it on, or anything else...
4. Unlocking phone is as simple as removing one file from the device (gestures.key). But I am unable to do it. Let's say I have access to the phone files, but I cannot delete this file, because of SecurityException. If I root my phone, will I magically gain the permission?
5. Samsung find device is sadly not configured. Can I configure it without unlocking the device?
Thank you for your support.
Regards.

You are stuck because of the FRP lock? Right?
I never heard about FAP lock, only if you need to fap before you do the unlock
I can remove you frp lock. Just send me your teamViewer id and password and download the flexihub and install it and give me the correct model number, written on the back of the phone.
Hello recently I tried to root my phone, wanting to fix ghost touch, I did something wrong and the phone stopped working, "Only official binary blah blah blah ..." popped up during startup, I decided to reinstall the official stock, the phone started working normally, even ghost touch repaired, I looked at the Root Checker application if I have root, it turned out not, which is all right, but when I want to add the card to google pay or open McDonald's applications, I get a message that the phone is rooted or was somehow rooted modified, what can I do in such a situation, please help me, I tried to install other stocks from other operators and restore the phone to factory settings: _ (
I saw one solution, probably in this forum where someone wrote to enable OEM Unlock and USB Debugging then disable and enable again, something like this, but I don't see OEM Unlock in the developer option, I know that with a failed root attempt, I somehow unlocked this option, but I don't remember how and I prefer someone to help me as best as he can, because I don't want to break anything anymore, I just want Google Pay to start working for me
OEM is probably hidden cause your device isnt older than 7 days. Connect to wifi and enable automatic time and date, than disable once done set the date atleast 7 day forward and oem should appear but you will have to lock ur bootloader before you disable oem and if you are running a custom firmawre make sure to backup data if you wanna go to normal firmware
But I use official firmware from some Samsung firmware site, i think my bootloader is locked, anyway do you have any solves to make work google pay?
I tried to unlock OEM but this solution with data & time doesn't work for me.
Hey, when I go to Google Play Shop there is an information that my device isn't certified, I tried to register my ID Device and still doesn't work can It be a problem, because of that Google Pay doesn't work?

If i wait 7 days OEM option should unlock automatically?
Is it good idea to root this device correctly and use magisk to make google pay work good or for example root this device and then unroot to make work google pay?

before you do this if odin says you are in custom mode backup all your data before doing this. no it wont automatically, first you have to go to odin mode and hold up for a bit until the screen shuts and shows the question (do you wanna lock your bootloader) you select yes once done if you are on custom it will bring up only odin mode before anything thats where u flash firmware, now that should get rid of the root, and then if u wanna disable oem connect to wifi disconnect date and time unselect automatically and go 7 days ahead and the option will appear.
How to check if i have custom mode and what i have to hold up?? please explain better because i don't know what i have to do
