Help: Tab S3 is in FAP Lock Mode - Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers

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

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.

[Q] Need Help - Soft Bricked Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4

Hello,
I recently soft bricked my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4 while trying to unlock the device to make it work with other US carriers (not sure if that would work). I modified the build.prop file following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2530610 forum. I think I did not made the correct changes and after that phone keeps rebooting. Phone shows Samsung Galaxy S4 logo and wouldn't pass this. Prior to this I did not make any copy of the files so doing a restore from back up is not possible at this time. I don't care about the data being lost. I only care about getting the phone back up and working.
I canget to ODIN mode and recovery mode. I had previously flashed it with SPH-L720_MDC_Modem.tar.md5 and CF-Auto-Root-jfltespr-jfltespr-sphl720.tar.md5 using ODIN before the problem started.
I tried all possible way to get my phone working but still it keeps rebooting.
I tried:
1. wipe data/factory reset
2. wipe cache partition
3. tried to update from ADB - this i can get to list my device using (adb devices) but cannot get to push or pull /system/build.prop file to edit it. I get "error:closed" when I type in "adb usb" or "adb shell". I was able to log in as SU prior to this problem. I have the latest SDK installed.
I know for sure that I had checked the "USB Debugging" checkbox prior to this issue.
4. I tried flashing it with L720VPUAMDC_L720SPTAMDC_L720VPUAMDC_HOME.tar.md5 but I get the error that Binary=1 in download mode. Not sure if Triangle away apk will be of any help here to reset the binary counter since I cannot get past the samsung logo at all.
In recovery mode, my system reads:
Android system recovery <3e>
KOT49H.L720VPUFNAE
In ODIN mode, my system reads:
Product Name: SPN-L720
Current Binary: Custom
System Status: Custom
KNOX Kernel: 0x0
KNOX Warranty Void: 0x1
CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x30
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
eMMC BURST MODE enabled
Can someone please help me to fix this issue? I can provide more information if needed.
Thanks so much.

Samsung s4 mini GT-I9195 boot loop...same old problem, new solution???

Let me start off by saying I have already scoured this forum and other sources for a solution to this problem. I should add that I am somewhat bound by the confines of my experience, also.
Like many others here, my Samsung S4 mini GT-I9195 is stuck in a boot loop, unable to get into recovery mode. It can get to download mode, but is not recognized by my PC.
Things I've done so far:
1. tried to boot in recovery mode - doesn't work, says "Recovery starting..." then restarts into boot loop
2. checked battery - not it
3. dissasembled phone and checked power button - works fine
4. tried Samsung Kies - "Device is not responding. To resolve the issue, reboot the device." - no can do (note that I only just installed Samsung Kies on my PC for the first time after the boot loop started)
5. flashed firmware using Odin - PASS! - still in bootloop w/no recovery mode
6. flashed firmware again using Odin w/Auto-Reboot unchecked - PASS! - then attempted to reboot into recovery - no go, still in bootloop w/no recovery mode
The firmware I successfully flashed was Poland/T-Mobile version 4.4.2 downloaded from sammobile.
The one thing I have NOT tried is to repartition the pit file. Would this possibly make any difference? If it's worth a try, can I do this using the tar.md5 package above, or do I need a separate .pit file and if so, how do I know I have the right one???
After doing a little reading, I downloaded CSB_signed_SERRANOLTE_ONEPIT_OPEN_130523.pit, which was included in a 'repair firmware' .zip file that also included separate bootloader, code, csc and modem files. I actually did try flashing those files (except for the pit file) and that failed (of course) with error "Device 2, Binary 1", so I flashed the firmware above again and it passed again.
What else?
- Phone is not rooted
- I have no idea if USB debugging is turned on or not
- I was doing nothing with the phone when it first died. I figured the battery might have somehow rapidly drained to zero even though it should have been around 70%. I had last touched the phone about an hour earlier, to shut off my alarm. I tried plugging in to wall charger but phone would not turn on even after an hour or more of charging. I really don't remember exactly how or when the bootloop started.

*Solved* Custom Binary Blocked By Reactivation Lock

hello!
i have this problem with my S6 Edge G925F
i was using it as normally, then i opened AdAway app to check for updates, i updated hosts file, then it asked for reboot...
after that the problem came.... i can't boot in system or in recovery.. i can only boot in download mode
when i boot in system or recovery it shows "Custom binary blocked by reactivation lock" in top left corner in red..
soo, how can i fix this? i was running on odexlite nougat rom & nogeek kernel without any problems..
it just happened when i updated the hosts file :/
any fixes? i didn't do anything yet... i didn't flash anything with odin..
more info:
Product name: SM-G925F
Current Binary: Custom
System Status: Official
Reactivation Lock: On
Secure Download: Enabled
Knox Warranty Void: 1 (0x0000)
RP SWREV: B:5 K:2 S:2
plzzz help me guyyys!!! ​
one more question,
will rooting it again using this method will bypass the error while booting?
and plz help! i don't want it dead
i flashed stock recovery in here
the error is disappeared but i'm facing a bootloop.. i can't boot to recovery too.. i can only successfully boot in download..
any solutions? did i brick my phone for ever?
Solved- flashed firmware.
Another easy solution can be found here:
[Guide] Unlock FRP / Deactivate Reactivation lock, Root and recovery for Samsung

(Desperate need of help!!) J5 FRP locked, phone got bricked.

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!

Soft brick hell

hello, fellow ROMers
My galaxy s4 (jfltevzw, sch-i545) was rooted when I received it. not knowing about the MDK cutoff, i tried to install a custom rom. I can occasionally get Download mode to work AND when I do, I get this :
ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)
PRODUCT NAME: SCH-I545
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
REACTIVATION LOCK: OFF
CSB-OEM_CONFIG_LSB: 0X30
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
And when i try to flash recovery, in red it says: START [224, 1440]
And in green: SECURE CHECK FAIL : recovery
trying to boot into recovery, in red,
SECURE FAIL : KERNEL
Followed by the yellow triangle and the message about taking it to a Verizon store
Last I was able to check i am on PL1.
cannot get to boot. tried flashing stock firmware and kernel
tried kies....won't take my model name
tried Verizon tool and it did not recognize the device
tried unroot.zip and rebranded it as unroot.zip.tar, so I could try to flash with odin (3.07, 3.09, 3.10.1, 3.12, 3.14, 3.14.4, etc) basic boot attempt with power key results in same message as trying to boot recovery
when download mode won't load I get : SECURE FAIL : KERNEL followed by UNKNOWN UPLOAD UPLOAD MODE
Any guidance would be gangbusters...
Did you try a factory reset in recovery?
