This is my thought too at this point. Though if it's shutting down you'd think that it wouldn't charge either. Oh well, guess it can just be a backup tablet, or one for the kids.

Does anyone know a program I can buy or freeware that I can use to count and know my monthly sms and calls that leaves from my HTC TyTN phone.

Any idea will be well appreciate. I want to be smarter than my operator :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Knockz:
Check out www.Efficasoft.com I just remembered I was using one of their applications to monitor my data usage. I checked their site quickly and they have an SMS counter. Not sure about minutes. But I only took a quick look.

Hopefully this is what you were lookin for.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Radimus:
naa that one is a reatil app.

Get BatteryStatus, it will count for you and is freeware.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] cliq:
@ Knockz , sms counter is for Smartphone and @Radimu,I think BatteryStatus is meant for battery :O
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] scharnet:
BatteryStatus - http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_BatteryStatus_XDA_Neo_WM5_iM_cs.htm

It does: SMS, Data, Minutes. It also shows battery, remaining memory on storage card & device, and more.

It works on my 8525 w/WM6.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] cliq:
oh yes it does count but unfortunately I can not reset it...I would like that it counts on monthly basis because I want to know how much I am being charged every month for my usage
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Thirstykor:
Dig a little deeper...it actually does reset on a monthly basis. You tell it the hour and the day of the month that you want to reset and it resets the counter for you.

Only problem is that there is conflict with Sleuth255's SIPchange software and freezes up my 8525 WM6. Can't figure out why and make both programs work together. So, I opted out of the BatteryStatus program for the ability to use pocketCM keyboard. I wish I could have all the functions!

I would love to see a picture of 10,000 phones in a drawer.

I don't have a solid answer for you on the legality (and in fact I'm sure few here are experts in that regard) although you can probably safely assume the answer is no.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] xboxexpert:
I figured the SGS7's are at least 400 or 500 bucks each or something I haven't paid for a phone nor service is 7 years being employees here. Don't care to research how expensive they are however I know she has over 20 of them at the moment.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] elliwigy:
So are you saying you found a method or are going to try to find a method?

Any cobtribution is a good one but I am not familiar with the legality either but dont see it matter unless you are posting saying thieves can use it on a stolen device.

In all honesty, ppl legitamitely forget their passwords and lock themselves out I am sure all the time and at times if you purchase the phone from a third party theres really no way to remove or bypass it without proof of purchase or replacing the device which some might not have because of how it was purchased.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] xboxexpert:
I have successfully bypassed the FRP Reset Protection no matter how much security is on the phone, passcode, pattern, fingerprint. All are bypassed for a full clean factory reset.

So short answer, yes. Also there is a high likelihood that this method works on ALL variants.

I am in full agreement with this statement. However I have no idea where to start. Again this was basically proof of concept until it because a reality. Tested it at least 20 times and every time I've been able to bypass FRP 100%. Even gave it to my director and had him lock it down with fingerprint and google account and 10 minutes later he was speechless.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] oka1:
From the Moderator

The bypass method would not violate any law per se. The only issue that would be in question is if you own the phone or lease it.

Under that specific lease agreement it probably has wording about applying custom software to the phone.

ESN lockout is what makes turning over a lost or stolen phone difficult. And yet there is a huge grey-market trade on ebay and other places. I image they are all going overseas to get the appropriate chips switched out for resale. And if they have an operation set up for that, physically removing the flash chip and reprograming it would be a breeze. IMHO the lockout is more of a money generator for samsung so they can charge you to unlock it if you lock yourself out.

Describing the process is no more illegal than rooting. And if you figured it out, someone else will too. Only they might not share in hopes of selling the service or profiting somehow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] xboxexpert:
Meaning if I share then I'm opening up a whole new market that will explode as bad as Pokemon Go.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] elliwigy:
or meaning someone else will release it anyways in time so whether you release it or not doesnt matter outside of you being "first" lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] BlueLightNight:
Actually it would destroy or prevent a market. Markets only exist for those who know how and can do it. At the moment that is Samsung. You don't share it and Samsung makes a bit more money. Then someone else figures it out and they also don't share.... you start seeing adverts on eBay priced a bit below Samsung for the "get back into your phone!" service (or maybe it's just you trying to make a buck ;P ) If you do release it or someone else figures it out and releases it. Well,... we will still see the adverts on ebay for the techna-challenged but it will be a hell of a lot cheaper because it is a known process thus many people offering thus competition.

im not you so i dont know why but what i do know is i used my old notebook with nothing on it installed your file which did nothin just sat there for 20 mins after i followed your directions i exited it restarted my notebook and then boom trojan
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] psouza4:
I'm setting up a walled VM to test this and will be preventing any attempts at the filesystem from deleting files, so whatever payload gets extracted, I'll be able to evaluate. I'll do what I can to verify one way or another if the method is clean with false positives or contains malicious code.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] xboxexpert:
Thank you. The payload is USB drivers, Samsung Drivers and a batch that was converted to exe. Just make sure you have a FRP phone connected and follow the onscreen. If it doesn't work I'd be amazed since I must have gotten yelled at by my wife at least 17 times because it was taking up all my time. I am meticulous to where if something is not user friendly I need to dumb it down and have the least user interaction.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] xboxexpert:
Your hilarious. What exactly were the instructions then that sat there for 20 minutes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] irishmarine0311:
after it says to power down to maintenance boot and select option 5 it does nothing but whatever also i got rid of said trojan and just for ****s and giggles did the entire process over again you wouldnt believe same damn thing trojan
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] xboxexpert:
After maintenance mode it runs the ADP commands. You must be in the correct portion of your phone follow the instructions. If you got rid of said trojan I'm assuming you deleted the required files to proceed successfully. adb.exe is the following command after maintenance boot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] xboxexpert:
This whole thread was humorous. Fact of the matter remains is you run the exe and pay attention to the instructions. If you are able to do that and ignore the bull **** in this thread the "trojan" is all in your mind.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] elliwigy:
dont let ppl get to you.. i take anything with a grain of salt when you have things like kingroot floating around here lol

I've even reached out to Samsung who was useless to say the least I know I could just factory reset my wife's phone or Odin firmware to it but there's irreplaceable photos of our children so right now it's a brick and she's resorted to using an iPhone..);

FRP lock removal is possible.

Just going to leave this here.

FRP Locks are 100% possible to remove. I specialize in unlocking phones which is completely legal a of Feb 11. Both carrier unlocking, as well as FRP lock removal. It's essentially an EE lock and can be removed without patching and the system. Bypassing is one thing removal is usually the better option. I didn't read all the comments however if you have a drawer full of FRP locked phones might be a good idea to research a s remove it. It's not expensive by any means. You can by a $200 dollar box that will remove FRP locks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] imagex5:
Thank you so much. I tried every variant I could google, and none of them were working as of 1/2/2017. I got this SM-G930V from an associate that was only here for an internship, and he moved back to his home country mid-December. I had the original box, and the remnants of his receipt from Verizon. The receipt had gotten wet and damaged, but it was fine for reference when I took the phone by our local Verizon store to make sure we could use the phone. He hadn't registered the phone with Samsung, so we were able to do that as well.

Jump forward to 1/3/2017, and the Verizon store decided the receipt wasn't legible. They informed me the last google account that was synced to the phone prior to the reset and SIM removal was the only way to unlock the phone otherwise. They pretty much implied I was lying about a rep telling me I could add the phone to our account, but they would give us a great deal on two new phones.

I was reluctant to use the OP's .exe, but I gave it a shot. It not only worked, but pretty much automated the whole process. I'm a bit strapped for cash from Christmas, but I will be sending a donation asap.

I successfully removed (with your expertize) the FRP on the Verizon S7 Edge running the P13 firmware.

The entire process was extremely user friendly and the step by step was very well executed.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussi] Kagemusha-:
Xboxexpert, you sir, are a f***ing genius!! I got your hack/script working.

Just in case others happen upon this post, looking for a way around FRP, here are some tips to go along with Xboxexpert's strategy:

1. If you're on Nougat, downgrade to Marshmallow by using Odin (you can use the one supplied in Xbox's "Samsung Galaxy S7x FRP Bypass.exe" file). I used the PI3 firmware, even though this guide was built around PE1. You can find firmware here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=154037

2. If you're newb(ish) to rooting/odin, put Xbox's .tar file in the AP slot of Odin.

3. Read and follow along the instructions. Very important!

4. If at any point in the process you get stuck, or advance too soon because you didn't follow directions, start over by re-flashing the .tar file.

5. When you manage to get to the part where the instructions read "Allow the reboot fully into Setup Wizard again.", proceed through the wizard up to the point of joining a WiFi SSID. DO NOT GO BEYOND THIS POINT (or you'll have to start over with flashing the .tar)

6. After you've successfully bypassed FRP, shout/sing praises to Xboxexpert.

Thank you again, Xboxexpert. Your method brought this S7 back from the dead.
