I got a fail when i try to flash Recovery with ODIN, i see on the phone "Custom Binary (Recovery) Blocked by FAP lock - WTF?

Ok i had to remove my google Accout from the device and FRP was disabled on the next reboot.

Take a look at you phone after the fail and check if there stand any information why. on my phone it did not work because of FRP lock, i had to remove my google Account from the phone to make it possible to flash. Of course it is not easy to remove the Account when the phone does not boot anymore. Why don't you try to reflash the recovery and then from the recovery step by step as described the kernel and SU.

---------- Post added at 02:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 PM ----------

****ing google, i tried to start into Recovery after i added a google account and am in a boot loop because freaking FRP blocks the recovery, i am so pissed its unbelievable, and the only way to remove FRP is to remove the google account. What do these assholes think who they are to manage my device which i bought for a lot of money?

[MENTION=6970923]jo01[/MENTION]: If you need the kernel and recovery, its in the first post in arter97 topic. There's a link to his website

Ok, i have a lot of experience with flashing on htc but with samsung i'm completely noob.

Which file do i have to flash for the recovery? The zip or the tar? It's not 100% clear for me.

Sorry :(
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] deepphrozen:
You need the tar.md5 to flash the recovery and the zip for the kernel, in my case it were these ones:

http://arter97.com/browse/exynos7420/kernel/6.0/g928fcig/

The super SU is this one:

https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip?retrieve_file=1

But keep in mind to remove your google account before you flash if not FRP will block the flashing, after you flashed and added your google account again, be careful to remove it everytime you start into recovery if not you will have to flash the stock ROM again like i had to do today. God how i hate google

---------- Post added at 05:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------

Are you serious? YOu are installing recovery again in recovery mode.. After you installed recovery via Odin, you need to install first Kernel and then Super SU via recovery mode but before of course you need to copy the files to your device. If not they will not be accesible from recovery. YOu need this file too:

Try to remove your google account and reboot your device, after that go to settings>apps>google play store and delete cache and data of the app. Do the same with "google service framework" and "download manager". After adding again your google account it should work
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] jonny68:
I've tried 5 times to root and all failed downloaded all the necessary files, super su and arter97 kernel to phone USB drivers and odin, booted into download mode, started odin, attached the USB cable, followed the steps after a few minutes it said failed tried with previous version of odin same thing.

Mine is version G928F and according to this thread can be rooted so why can't I root.

It would save a lot of hassle if there was a simpler way to root but apparently this is the only way.

I'll have to go back to stinking Internet cafe again and try if someone can assist.

Did you removed your google account before flashing? CXheck on the phone after it says FAILED - there should stand Custom Binary blocked by FRP. On the new phones FRP is active if you have a google account on your phone. Remove it and retry. I had the same issue on my 928F. AFter flashing you can add your google account again but if you start into recovery FRP will keep you in a bootloop so remove your google account ald let it removed.

Deepphrozen, I can confirm that what you tell here is nonsense. Yesterday I've rooted and flashed rom with google-account on phone. And phone is still working, no lock or FRP-thing or bootloops.

You do something wrong in the process of flashing/rooting!

Thank you for replying. I apologize for being so inept lol

So when I enter recovery I install from zip first for the regular kernel and then the SuperSU, both zip files correct?

Doesn't work mate. with 5.1 most loop holes are closed so it's pretty darn hard.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] deepphrozen:
Sure you can, mine is rooted too but you need to care about your google account, remove it before rooting and the best leave it removed.

Once you need updates from the Play Store you can add your account and do your updates but before you boot nto recovery you need to remove it again or you will find yourself in a bootloop which can only be stopped by flashing a stock ROM

---------- Post added at 04:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 AM ----------

No matter how hard you try to avoid that you were wrong, you were wrong. FRP can not be activated by any button, thats when you know that you have FRP, when you don't have a button to Find phone. All the official pages give me right when i say that FRP can ONLY be activated/deactivated when adding or removing your google Account from the phone. As an old man you should be wiser, don't you? First read and then call others nonsense, otherwise you don't look very good.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] guybrush2099:
I mean previous Lollipop 5.0 system partition of the little brother Samsung Edge ...rooting it and flash again prerooted stock 5.1 of edge plus or something similar
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] jonny68:
I recall reading that removing your Google account was not required at all, anyway i use Google all the time so wouldnt want to leave it removed.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] deepphrozen:
First of all check if you have FRP on your device, if not you are good. YOu can check it when booting into Download mode, you will see in the left corner if FRP is activated or not.

If you decide to root it having FRP then you have to remove your google account when you boot into recovery and add it after you used recovery. There are many threads of people who had the same issue like me, that after roting and adding the google account they found themselfes in a bootloop when tried to boot into recovery because FRP blocks custom binary. If you are locky then your battery is full and you are able to flash stock ROM via Odin, if you run out of battery, because FRP blocks also the charge of battery, you are lost.

G828C? Do you mean G928C? If so yes the OP it is the tutorial and it's very easy to do just follow the instructions. Arter97 6 for the device is the kernel.

---------- Post added at 08:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 PM ----------

also i seen on another website link below, that in odin both F.reset time AND auto reboot are selected, in the OP it only states to have F.reset time checked, so which guide is right here, asides from that they are all but the same?

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Jymmy97:
Well done tonight on my French 928F.

Grettings
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] deepphrozen:
It is better to get auto reboot disabled because after flashing the recovery, if auto reboot is selected, you have to be pretty fast to push the "recovery combination", otherwise, if the system boots it will re-install the stock recovery.

For this reason you should have it disabled.

After you flashed the recovery, push the "download mode combination" and when you get asked if you want to continue press VOL DOWN and the device will reboot, then inmediately push the HOME+VOL UP+ POWER combination to boot into Philz recovery. I had to try a few times because every time the system booted after flashing philz recovery it re-installed the stock recovery.

But for your FRP=OFF in your Download mode, please give it a try and boot your phone and remove your google account and try to flash again.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] OneTruth:
Worked excellent. Just one hiccup. I didn't check auto reboot, so sort of got stuck in the download mode. I couldn't jump to recovery with volume up + home + power, no matter how long I held these buttons. I restarted the phone by pressing all buttons (volume up and down + home + power). Stock recovery got installed again, so I repeated the custom recovery installation only this time with auto reboot on. Once the phone rebooted I quickly jumped it to recovery and from there on it worked without any issues.

EDIT: I do still have KNOX. It shows up on the About device > Software info screen. Shouldn't this be gone?

---------- Post added at 03:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 AM ----------

Nope, you will still have it, it is just VOID now.

WHen you were in DOwnload Mode, pushing VOL DOWN+ POWER+ HOME should reboot your phone into the download mode again but anyways, you made it. congrats
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] jonny68:
what happens though if im successful in flashing and re add my google account and if i need to boot into recovery and i get stuck in a bootloop i don't want to have to keep removing and readding my google account every time i wanna do that
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] deepphrozen:
If you stuck in the botloop, flash a stock ROM and it is solved. But then you know whats going on. I don't know how it is with other ROMs but i have the AUDAX Rom installed and it has a feature to deactivate FRP even without to remove your Google Account, its under Development and called OEM Unlock. If you enable this, FRP is deactivated.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Ha3ks:
OEM unlock is an option in 'Developer Options' on the stock S6 edge+ ROM, so by the theory above you shouldnt need to add/remove your google account initially or at all during flashing
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] deepphrozen:
In Theory yes but i am not convinced that it works also in praxis because he could not flash his phone while the google account was installed, also when in Download Mode FRP=OFF

Ok i will give it a try and boot into recovery with google Account Active but OEM Unlock active as well and boot into recovery, if i land in a bootloop i have a stock ROM left to flash over. WIll keep you posted

EDIT: Ok it works. I could boot into recovery even with my google Account active on the phone because of having OEM Unlock activated. Cool. SO there is no need to remove the google Account every time just like i thought.

Hey, my first post in the Edge+ thread! :)

Mate, im having issues following your walktrough rooting my phone. Im stuck on:

4. Now go to the options tab and make sure everything else is unchecked expect F. Reset Time

5. Now click on Start to Flash the custom recovery

The issue is, once ill flash custom recovery, my "download mode (whetever it is)" will automatically download stock recovery (i guess).

I double checked my steps (i unchecked everything except F. Reset Time) and the problem persists. Any hints?

EDIT: Solved by myslef! Thanks for walktrough. :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Ha3ks:

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] El Bully:
Remember me :D

Deepphrozen, maybe it's an idea to change your topics about that frp lock. It scares people away from rooting AND buying an edge plus.

When I read that before buying my edge plus, I would never have bought it.

But when we see someone with the FRP-lock, we all know what to say now and how he/she can fix it.

Tnx deepphrozen for your honesty.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] deepphrozen:
But FRP continues being a dangerous feature, because without knowing the Developer Option "OEM Unlock" you will land in a bootloop and if you run out of battery nothing can help you but a technician. So maybe it should be written to the root tutorial that OEM unlock should be activated if you plan to use a gogle Account.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] El Bully:
It's in the first post: Then Go to Settings & Developers option and Make sure "USB Debugging" is enabled & "OEM Unlock" is enabled
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Ha3ks:
I agree, but if you are rooting and flashing a non stock rom you would be following instructions and if you follow them and have an error then it is fed back to the op by a post in the relevant forum

As is the case here when following the OP.

I'm not here to start a fight but state the obvious and you have confirmed that its there and that it works so this is a case of "read the OP folks"
