No need to downgrade, I have Nougat 7.1 with FRP lock, upgrade it to Oreo 8.1 then FRP unlock without any problem

This combination and unlock file work with Oreo and Nougat firmware

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Rip0qIGo-GbzFdH55s1vIpe6f1aqYKbD/view

These two files are around 2GB, work with Nougat or Oreo firmware.

1- Boot to download Mode ( Power + Volume Down + Home )

2- Flash the combination file first with Odin 3.13 in AP slot ( Older version of Odin will fail to flash ). You device will boot to Factory Mode after flashing successfully.

3- Boot to download mode again, then flash the FRP unlock file in AP slot.

After flashing and reboot, your FRP lock will be gone.

If you don't know your firmware version, boot to Recovery Mode ( Power + Volume Up + Home ), the build version will be at the top.

If you do something wrong in Download Mode, don't panic, Power + Volume Down will exit this mode. Many don't know how except pulling out the battery cable.

I started with the Nougat build RF1, upgraded to Oreo RK5 to unlock FRP.

The last 3 characters of the build will tell year and month of release

RF1 ( R=18, F= 6 ) = version 1 released on June 18., Nougat OS

RK5 ( R= 18, K = 11 ) = version 5 released on Nov 18 , Oreo OS

This Oreo build RK5 is US version but the unlock files will work with any region as Samsung tablets sold anywhere , all having the same mainboard, firmware will be customized for certain region.

Update:

I have a tab A with Nougat 7.0 build QL1 , factory reset in Recovery Mode to trigger the FRP lock, then use the combination and FRP unlock, it will unlock FRP and the firmware will be RJ9 of Oreo. The tablet will update to the current RK5 by itself via wifi, around 107MB.

So don't need to upgrade firmware if you are having Nougat with FRP lock.

this worked! thank you

I googled for hours and hours and spend days trying a lot of complicated steps and could not believe how easy it ended up being with above steps

Thanks again Beut

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Peter Spapan:
Dear XDA Community,

I address you as I am stuck with a Samsung SM-T580 tablet which is lock by FRP. I have read two threads here and tried some other resources but there is nothing I can do so far: the tablet is locked and there is no way I can install a BL, custom ROM, TWRP. I have read from Beut that FRP is a joke and that the protection can be circumvent in 10 minutes. I would be grateful if someone could give some hint on how to proceed. Oh yes my tablet is running Android 8 (8.1?) and localized in Germany. Thanks and a nice day!

edit 1: I just flashed a combination file: first step is a success, I access now the factory mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Peter Spapan:
Indeed FRP is removed

Well, I can say a huge thank you to Beut. That was perfectly correct: FRP protection can be removed in 10 minutes. Follow the instructions. Now I like to ask a question and I hope it is not off topic. After flashing the cobination firmware the tablet starts in the factory binary mode. In this mode I see that my tablet has 32GB. Once Android 8.1 installed the system sees only 16GB. Any idea of what went wrong?

Have a nice day!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Beut:
The combination files uses 32GB userdata.img to overwrite the one with FRP lock. After a flashing stock image , you should get back the correct internal storage.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Diavire:
I just used this method, it worked, thanks :)

Do you have any recommendation on a stock rom to overwrite these flashed files with, or what action I should take to get it back to as "stock" as possible, if that makes sense?

Or will it offer an update through it's own update center once I connect it to wifi?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Beut:
You are free to flash any stock firmware you like as mainboard is the same one regardless regions.

Sammobile is the source to look for firmwares.

Load BL, AP, and CS file to Odin ( latest version ) then it takes only 5 minutes to have your choice of stock firmware.

The files used to unlock are US firmware so the tablet will update via Wifi to the latest firmware of US region. In case your tablet is not from US, flash the correct firmware of your region, I think it's not necessary but this is a personal choice.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Diavire:
I've found the rom I want, but there's some issues with reCaptcha at the moment, so I can't download it yet, I'll try it again later.

I'm pretty noobish in this regard, so I hope you won't mind if I ask some dumb questions.

From what you wrote I take it that whatever does the work in the unlocked rom basically sets a toggle to unlock it, not that it's a software "fix" that needs to be kept on, that might switch back if a "normal" rom is flashed?

Can you elaborate on what's different in this rom from a stock rom that allows it to take off the FRP lock?

Thanks for your time :)

P.S.: should I use the Odin that was included in the unlock archive, or download and use the version that's recommended at Sammobile? Do I run a risk of flipping the Knox security bit?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Beut:
If your tablet is US, no need to do anything because the files used to unlock is US firmware . After unlock, your tablet is Android 8 , it will update to the latest available firmware

You won’t strip Knox when flashing stock firmware ( original one from Samsung )

Stock firmware is the one customized for certain region, like UK and US firmwares, they’re identical but the difference is language option

Anyway, where is your region ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Diavire:
I'm in the Netherlands, which has a specific rom on Sammobile, the reCaptha was fixed so I've downloaded it now :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Beut:
You’re ok to flash with the latest Odin, it won’t strip the Knox as long as you flash the stock firmware from your region
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Diavire:
Sorry for the late reply again, I can only login from work, and I'm away often.

The latest Odin would be the one they recommend there right? I hope I understood that right, cuz I'm about to try ;)

Thanks for taking the time to help out. :)

Edit: Looks like it worked, I've got Dutch by default again, thanks much!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] HooksAndChains:
Anyone still updating this?

I just used Odin to flash the pl4 firmware on to my T580. Odin successfully flashed it then my T580 screen went to vertical green bars and basically a black screen.

I can hear the tablet screen responding with the touch sounds but damn near everything is black.

Any thoughts or did I brick the damn thing?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Beut:
[IMG="Secure LCD cable"]https://www.mediafire.com/convkey/8125/6ck143xubf63tum6g.jpg[/IMG]

Black screen is common of this model. You just need to reseat the LCD cable and apply two tapes, vertically or horizontally at the LCD connector to secure this long lcd cable.

Don't forget one more tape at the center of battery
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] HooksAndChains:
Would this be the problem though immediately after using Odin to flash the new firmware? Everything was successful on Odin, the tablet restarted itself and the screen immediately went to the long lines. If I play with the power button enough sometimes I'll sometimes get a distorted ghost like image of the download screen. I didn't drop it or bump it, the display was working fine before Odin then went to hell immediately afterwards.

I'll still try what you posted and see how it goes from there. Thanks Beut
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Beut:
It doesn’t be dropped, the flexibility of lcd will cause the cable to be pulled out of connector. Common problem of this model.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] beergenius:
I've tried the steps to unlock my tablet to no avail. Odin keeps stopping om Initilization.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] allaturcha:
Hello. I need your help.

I have a samsung galaxy tab A 2016 SM-P580, originally from France.

I flashed with odin to 8.1 stock rom (France) But, I didnt pass the FRP Lock page (owner gmail account)

I followed your instructions as above. But, it failed to flash the combination file with odin.

I think, my device binary number is different than others.

On the odin downloading mode page, writes this: "RP SWREV: B:1 K:0 S:0"

As I understood; my device binary version is 1

So, what can I do ? Can I find the FRP unlock files for Binary 1 ?

Thanks in advance...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] dizzymon:
I'm about to give my SM-T580 a go at putting TWRP and flashing the Pie rom on it because the stock firmware eats up way too much of the storage.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] lewmur:
Maybe that is because you have a P580 and not a T580. The P580 doesn't even use the same SoC as the T580. They are two entirely different tablets and stuff for one WILL NOT work on the other.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] dizzymon:
Do tablets in other countries have a firmware lock?

Here's my experience I flashing my SM-T580 (US) wifi only verison running Oreo 8.1.

The following process resulted in loading up the recovery mode with solid blue bars, then vertical lines when I touched the screen.

1. Downloaded Samsung USB Drivers + Odin3 v3.13.1_3B_PatcheD.exe + twrp-3.2.3-0-gtaxlwifi.img.tar

2 . Installed Samsung USB Drivers

3. Opened up Odin

4. Clicked the AP button to flash it with twrp-3.2.3-0-gtaxlwifi.img.tar

5. Odin flash was a success

Here's what worked but I had Odin and USB drivers from previous steps.

1. Downloaded twrp-3.3.1-1-gtaxlwifi.img.tar

2. Opened up Odin

3. Clicked the AP button to flash it with twrp-3.2.3-0-gtaxlwifi.img.tar

4. Odin flash was a success

5. I manually rebooted the device holding power+volume down + home button

After that I went into TWRP and wiped everything except the SD card because I needed to put the files on it to flash the device.

In TWRP I flashed the files in the following order to get the device to work. I tried the Pixel Experience and it didn't have a keyboard but Lineage OS works.

1. Advanced Wipe (checked all boxes except the SD Card and OTA, basically the last 2 boxes)

2. Flash Order: lineage-16.0-20191113-UNOFFICIAL-gtaxlwifi, open_gapps-arm64-9.0-pico , Magisk-v20.1

3. Reboot

4. Success!!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] lewmur:
Getting lines on the screen after flashing TWRP usally means you flashed the wrong version. As to the FRP lock, it doesn't matter what countries ROM you flash. They all have it. OEM enable setting in developer mode has to be on to disable it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Jdekik:
Hi there Beut, I've looked on forums and youtube how to downgrade (Which I found that is not possible) and I know it has been a year but hopefully you still around to help people, my tablet is a Samsung gtxlwifi SM-T850 8.1.0/M1AJQ/ T580UEU4CSC1 and did all what you wrote but Odin shows a Fail! message, is there any way to make it work? Since it doesn't let me downgrade and want to google bypass and have back the tablet. Any feedback is much appreciated.

Update: I managed to get the tablet back!

I got a nexus 9 with same problem I got from eBay
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Maxis0040:
I got a SM-T580 Tablet from a friend to fix. The tablet starts up and stays about 10 seconds on the android home screen until it restarts. Its on Android 8.1.0.

Its a binary 4 device with following SWREV: B:4 K:1 S:2.

Every firmware i tried to flash over different odin versions failed to flash. Also the combination firmware for binary 4 failed to flash with the message: frp is enabled, ignore pit download, on the tablet.

There is no chance in that 10 seconds of android running to enable oem unlock or usb debugging.

I tried different computers, different cables and to the combination firmware i tried many stock roms because the download mode says its on official software.

Is there hope or is this tablet for the trash?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] lewmur:
I don't understand. Are you, or are you not, getting the tablets teal download mode screen?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Maxis0040:
The tablet is able to get into download mode but every try to flash is failing.

If its important: Stock Firmware T580XXU4CSA1 is installed
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] lewmur:
FRP on a T580 shouldn't prevent flashing via Odin. It only asks for Google login info on boot. It sounds more like you have a third party lock preventing flashing. Have you tried recovery mode instead of download and doing a factory reset?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Maxis0040:
I dont know if its a third party lock. I tried a factory reset over recovery mode, but the reset caused nothing. I flashed always over the teal colored download mode, there i got the message frp is enabled, ignore pit download.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] lewmur:
Third party locks will often give that FRP message but that just isn't the way FRP works. I assume you've tried flashing just TWRP? If that doesn't work, I hope someone else can help 'cause I'm out of ideas. You might want to PM Beut. (Not sure if that's spelled right.)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] Maxis0040:
I tried to flash stock roms, downloaded over SamFirm Downloader and other roms downloaded from a samsung firmware website. I did one try flashing TWRP but then the tablet displayed something like it couldnt flash custom binary because of frp lock.

I read some posts from Beut, he is a guy that has a big knowledge of this software stuff but his last online activity in this forum was in march this year.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] appcelera:
Followed above instructions, Thanks, it worked in removing FRP lock. For me this was a real help. I rented tablets to schools and had more than 10 where users did insert account, but when returned they did not remove their account, so i could not (re)use tablets. Now they are usable, however in my case there remains a small nuisance. Upgrades are not working.

Tablet is German version T580 Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2016

FRP lock was on 8.1.0/M1AJQ/T580XXU4CSA1.

Build now is M1AJQ/T580XXU4CRJ9.

Successfully removed FRP, but when i try to update, system will apply update, but break while applying update (at approx 32%).

Any ideas?

Anyway thanks to Beut and all the others active on this Forum always ready to help out generously.

Sorry to kick this old thread but my T580 seems completely bricked. Only boots with VOL UP, POWER and HOME. Gives me the Samsung Galaxy Tab A screen with 'Custom Binary blocked by FRP lock' in the top left corner.

I flashed the combination file posted earlier in this thread. It gave me the special assist screen for 5 seconds and now it's locked. I can't do anything. Can't access recovery, can't get in download mode. Absolutely nothing works.

Anyone has some miraculous solution or I must accept it's a paperweight now ?

So after alot of google I figured this out. You need to go to https://www.howtogeek.com/125769/how-to-install-and-use-abd-the-android-debug-bridge-utility/ and install the ADB console. From there extract it and run the ADB application. Then open a cmd prompt and type adb devices. If a device is listed type adb reboot download. It will reboot the tablet in download mode and you can flash the frp file and it will be good to go.

I Found a stock rom that works at samfw but that's not enough to get thorugh FRP, their custom tool doesn't work either, all of those user exploits in yt videos aswell are not feasible with this build.

I'm starting to feel defeated but I really don't want the dishonor of paying 29 euros to a samsung assitance center to remove it

Hi Guys. . . a noob here. I just bought an unlocked LG G6 870ds on EBay. I read the "fine print" but not the real fine print. The 870ds does NOT pick up LTE Bands 2-4-17.

2 Questions:

1. Is there any way that there will be a way to get the phone to pick up LTE Bands 2-4-17? Is the phone locked in to the design of the manufacturer?

2. Would I be better off selling the phone?
