[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
The actual Hboot installed on OP's phone is a Hboot from a Sense based firmware (not a GPE hboot) like nkk71 noted. GPE hboot are black colored. The current firmware version installed (5.11.1700.3) include the 1.54 GPE (black) hboot (he is on 1.44). So its a Sense hboot on a GPE phone + not the right version number for the firmware installed, so its confirm what nkk71 said, that phone was previously s-off, someone flashed the wrong hboot and turned it back s-on.

That being said, you can only, on a "normal" GPE phone, unlock the bootloader using the "fastboot oem unlock" command as opposed to Sense firmware which must be unlocked using htcdev's unlock code. There is also a well known bug with newer GPE firmware (hboot 1.54+) making the bootloader not unlockable.

So in theory, since the phone is running a Sense Hboot, he should be able to unlock using htcdev's unlock code which doesn't seem to work. "fastboot oem unlock" method for GPE variant doesn't work neither.

In his situation, he probably can't unlock his phone because of the wrong hboot installed vs his current firmware version or since the phone was s-off at some point, he might have a custom hboot...

And this is not applicable to the M7, all shipped M7 bootloader were unlockable and currently, the only M7 version that can't be unlocked is Verizon due to carrier demand.

Updating the firmware or flashing a RUU will not solve his problem with the not unlockable bootloader. He will definitively need s-off again.[...deleted...] I would try to flash the ruu and achieve s-off with sunshine.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crytix:
With hboot 1.44 it's possible to unlock and S-Off with revone.

[MENTION=225651]op[/MENTION] could you get an adb connection to your phone? Recovery for example.

If not, I can't help you more. Sorry.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Just realized he can't do what I suggested above (I would try to s-off before trying a RUU ), the phone is bricked. Your phone must be able to boot in the OS to achieve S-OFF. So he will need to flash the RUU so the phone can boot and then if he still want to unlock his bootloader, he will need to use Sunshine S-OFF (hboot will not be 1.44 anymore after the ruu).

You can only use adb commands from 2 places

1- from a booted OS with usb debug turned ON ---> not possible phone is bricked

2- From custom recovery ---> not possible bootloader is locked, even if he aleady had a custom recovery installed, he can't boot to it, bootloader must be unlocked to boot a custom recovery.

and anyway, adb connection won't help since all S-OFF exploits need a working OS to do the magic...

I'm running a pretty stable version of WM6 (Crossbow 1.7.1 Final). I'm pleased with it and have installed Wisbar advance desktop and some other programs got my skins done and everything is setup the way I want. Is there anyway to make an image of it that way I can reload it with shell tool just incase something happens. That way I can retain all of my custom settings? Thanks in advance :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Just use something like SPB backup (or one of the other many backup utilities) that backs up the registry and all. Then if something happens, you can hardreset and then just restore the backup and you should be back up to running with your apps and settings (or thats the concept).

The other option is to use like aWizard, but its a lot more advanced (not a bad thing, but could be if you aren't careful)

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowcliffs:
I bought a S6 Edge LDU (LRX22G.G925XXXU1AOC6_LLK) off ebay in hope of getting rid of the Samsung Retail Mode and using it as a wifi device. The retail mode is very annoying : it runs the demo by itself, reset phone to demo mode by itself. No matter what you do to the phone, like install apps, taking pictures, they will be wiped by this retail mode automatically. Plus, the phone can't be restarted nor powered off, and the entire Developer Options is greyed out (which means no USB debugging mode). Moreover, stock recovery can't wipe data/factory reset.

To remove the retail mode, I followed instructions that I can find on XDA, but it hasn't been successful so far. Here's what I have done.

1. I followed those instructions on how to disable Samsung Retail Mode with password 5444 or galaxy or any other password, but none works, even the menu in Samsung Retail Mode is different: There is no "“Configuration settings”, instead, there is "Store Settings" which asks for password.

2. I let the power runs out, then replug power and hold power/home/volume up to enter recovery mode. Wiped cache successfully . But when I tried to wipe data/factory reset, I got message that says:"MDM does not allow FactoryReset". This means factory reset on this device is locked by Samsung. Google shows demo unit from other models has this same issue and can be fixed by flash certain twrp. But it seems no twrp works on G925x yet.

Then I unplug the power to let power runs out, replug power and let the phone go into download mode, and Odin flashed

the tar file modified from G925FXXU1AOE3_G925FDBT1AODO_DBT.zip (with cm.bin and sboot.bin removed)

The flash succeeded, but the phone stuck at Samsung Logo page, it also seems the recovery mode is gone, only download mode is still available. I also Odin flashed tar file modified from T-mobile stock rom, same result. Stock 925F recovery doesn't work.

4. This soft-brick was later restored by flashing the stock recovery for SM-925X extracted from the stock firmware downloaded from a paid website.

link to the file:

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3427316&d=1438623299

5. The search is still on for:

1) Password that can disable Samsung Retail Mode, allow factory reset, or

2) Method to wipe MDM or

3) Custom recovery that works on G925x.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowcliffs:
I managed to download files claimed to be the official firmware for SM-G925X. Although Odin flashed failed, but it did restore the Current Binary from Custom to Samsung Official. There are three files in total with name:

AP_G925XXXU1AOC6_LLK_CL4260274_QB4268704_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5 (this file failed Odin's md5 check)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowcliffs:
I managed to restore stock recovery with the files I got and I was able to enter stock recovery mode. When I tried to wipe data/factory reset, I still got message that says:"MDM does not allow FactoryReset".

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warpcoil:
I went through this and through a series of trial and error with Odin and apps I got my SM-G925X Live Demo Unit wiped. Developer options are no longer greyed out. I can also do a full factory reset and it knows if there is a sim card in it, but no signal of course :)

First I installed cf-auto-root smg920f. The 925 version woundn't boot. Auto root was the only file that I could get Odin to install. I then installed root browser from play store and used it to go through all the folders and files and deleted whole folders and files that referenced retail, demo, or anything like that was manually deleted. At times the application would close and I would have to open root browser again and get back to where I left off. it eventually stopped closing at random as more of the demo folders and files were deleted. I eventually got it all deleted. No more retail demo software :) I still was not able to do a full factory reset due to MDM. I finally found a file today, that Odin would flash to the Phone AP_G925FXXU1AOCV_CL4497415_QB4506175_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5 This did the trick, MDM was no longer stopping me from doing a full factory reset and I now had access to developer options as well as the phone telling me there was no sim card in the tray :laugh: :D

Hope this helps

Hey, I am having this same issue but my model is SM-G925A. Do you think I would have any issues following these steps? I think that I have an actual live unit with the demo installed. Would this possibly prevent me from using it as an actual phone that could make and receive phone calls?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] warpcoil:
If it's a full phone unit with retail demo installed then I don't see why it wouldn't work once you clear it out. Have you tried to flash with the AT&T firmware ?? As far as cf-autoroot goes I don't know because I dont have your particular devices firmware you can try the 925 autoroot and if it doesn't boot then just use the 920 and then start deleting the files manually .

hi, did you "repaired" you LDU with the files warpcoil gave you?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowcliffs:
Unfortunately I have parted with my S6 Edge LDU so that I don't have chance to test it, but I read someone else reported unsuccessful story using those files in another thread. I'm also not sure how come LDU can be fixed, especially the locked MDM (which prevents factory reset) can be override by flashing an stock AP file. From all my readings, the locked MDM can only be overrided by TWRP. Unfortunately I haven't seen a working TWRP for S6 or Edge LDU yet.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexBz94:
Well... i can do the factory reset because i enabled it in the samsung retail app... but i don't know what does it have to do the locked MDM with the rooting process and installing a rom for g925f for example ?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowcliffs:
Guess there are different versions of ldu. Some can be unlocked with password 5444 and M729Q16K8546, others won't accept these passwords. Without factory reset unlocked, you will get a message telling you "MDM doesn't allow factory reset" if you try to do it through stock recovery.

Unlocking ldu involves two tasks, and people can mixed them up:

Task 1. stop/remove retail mode app.

This can be achieved by unlocking with password, root or flash a stock AP.

Task 2. Enable factory reset and unlock the ldu partition, otherwise some program auto run at boot to prepare ldu with or without retail mode app, blocks custom recovery, and cripples android system, etc.

I have seen this is achieved with TWRP on other phones.

If you achieved task 1 with password, then you have high chance achieving task 2.

If you achieved task1 with auto-root-cf, then factory reset is still locked, you will have trouble achieve task 2.

If you achieved task 2 then task 1 is out of the question.

Many may only achieve task1 with auto-root-cf and stuck at task 2.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexBz94:
Well let me tell you my adventure with the g925x so far....

-first i tryed to root it with cf auto root for g925f than for g925t in the end i tryed all the cf auto roots i found including the ones for g920

-than i readthat you can install a g925f rom if you remove the .bin files and it worked it installed till the end but still stuck in boot logo and it was another dead point

-finally i flashed kernels... after flashing the first one for g925f my phone booted but it's screen turned white a few times and the soft keys flickered and when it opened everything worked ok except for the soft keys which didn't worked and when i was closing the screen it wouldn't light up again or it would once again flicker... the phone was still working even with the screen black (i could hear the sounds)...

-also besides that kernel and the custom rom i also flashed a recovery.img someone posted in a thread about the g925x and when the phone booted it shows up as rooted when i installed super su...

-all in all right now i think all i need is a kernel because it also says when the phone starts that "kernel is not seandroid enforcing"... what do you think about my story ?

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbbjason:
im not sure if you found an answer but i fixed about 90 demo phones yesterday and it was very easy. The demo phones were all on the version ending in AOCE. I went here to get the same stock firmware file to try and reflash through odin. After unzipping the file i notice that it had the BP, AP, CP, and CSC files. So i flashed them all and the phone reset and powered up to the startup screen just like a normal phone. You have to force it into download mode. a lot of peole are saying they had to let the battery run out to restart the phone. you can force it off by holding power + vol up +vol down. it will only restart so make sure you quickly hold vol down + home + power when the screen goes blank so it will restart into download mode. from there connect the phone, load up all 4 files into odin and flash them. worked lile a charm. didnt trip knox or anything. i think the key to actually getting rid of demo mode was the flash all 4 files. i started out by just flashing BL and AP and it didnt work. so maybe the fix is in the CP or CSC files. anyway, hope i could help you or anyone else. this was for the SM-G925A.

I noticed next day that wifi and Bluetooth of the phone are not working and also FM radio was not receiving any signal only blur voices and noise was audible . I thought that I must change the ROM to look whether the problem is software or hardware.

I downloaded b120 europian channel ROM and installed it but even then WIFI and Bluetooth were not working so i reverted back to original ROM thorugh nandroid Recovery ( i installed CWM Recovery before hand)

Now-----

the phone was charging fine till yesterday and its battery went off in the night . today when i tried to on it , it didnt show any sign of charging so i charge it for 2 hours , but even after that there is no sign of charging and phone is completely dead. I tried all combination of buttons , 3 button procedure but nothing happening.

phone was not dropped at all so i fail to understand what is wrong with this.
