While there are many walk-throughs to help with FRP locked devices, many are obsolete or scams to get views. Should be pretty generic to find a combination FRP bypass walk-through that will work. Unfortunately, it will be trial and error. Could otherwise get ahold of a box that can remove the lock.

use frija or samfirm to get firmware.

not sure where to get the combination you need. Search the net or refer to the specific xda device thread.

This thread is for the patched odin tool, or the originals (which is what you basically need to flash stock or combinations, patched odin if it blocks). Beyond that; please check with your specific device threads on XDA. That will be your best source for tips and tricks specific for your devices. Good luck!

Yes, you may go either direction with a g970u to/from a g970u1. Use the 3.14.1 patched odin to accomplish it. Keep in mind that you must not use home csc; use the csc because a full wipe is necessary.

Hi Guys,

Would this Odin version work for following problem?

[Android Software Development] realbbb:
No Odin will help.

A locked BL cannot downgrade. Once on BL 2 (G960FXXU2BRG6) you cannot flash BL 1 (G960FXXU1BRE5).

[Android Software Development] realbbb:
Once the bootloader has upgraded, on a locked BL, there is no downgrading. You must find firmware that is equal to your current BL version or greater. This is true for both combination and regular firmware versions.

How do i find the right boot loader with the combination that I have installed so I know what firmware I have to install like I said I can't boot to binary if that helps

If I'm not mistaken the "U1" part is bootloader which then has been moved to U2, so that's the matching part.

I'm so lost I ended up talking it to a sell shop on a corner that fixes phones and they are charging me 30.00 to put stock firmware on it....tired of playing with it been messing with it for 4 or 6 weeks and nothing

Where they able to move you from U2 to U1 version? Based on all the sources it is hardly possible though it should as at the end of the day it is just a partition we overwrite.
[Android Software Development] bradical711:
You're on BL 4, download BL 4 firmware files from either updato.com or sammobile.com for your SM-G950U VZW and flash it via regular Odin 3.13.1 by putting all correct files in their slots (BL in BL, AP in AP, CP in CP, CSC in CSC) as well as in options of odin click "nand erase all", leave default boxes checked and then click start. Your device will be fixed but also erased. Your device isn't bricked or broken. Just follow my directions and you'll be fine. Your device will boot normally and just continue setup as usual. Never pay ANY place to flash stock firmware. It's as easy as my instructions and they'll charge your 30$ just for this simple process. It is quite unbelievable in my opinion.

P.S. to flash files to your device you need to be in download mode, to do that, press the bixby+volume down button+ power button to enter download mode. A warning will popup saying "flashing blah blah blah" , just ignore it, and click volume up. After that, ignore any errors (if any) and follow my procedure. It will flash fine.

If you did all of that, it would have worked for you. I know this because I have personally tested this. Multiple times and all have tests have worked for me and I've flashed rooted firmware etc. and gone to stock many times before. In your error it says, fused binary 4 > 3 which means you tried to flash a BL 3 firimware on a BL 4 revision firmware. You kept on getting the error because you kept on flashing the wrong firmware to be honest with you lol. You must have misread the firmware you downloaded and or misunderstood exactly what BL revisions are and how to find them in firmwares..

It SHOULD work fine for nougat.

I had tried to flash T-Mobile G892USQS3BRG5 onto my SM-G892A (AT&T) and it hozed the phone (boot looping into install update).

Once I got out of the boot loop issue I successfully downgraded to AT&T's Android 7, then subsequently flashed Oreo (Android 8) onto it (Both used Bootloader V2).

Now if only I could get some help getting rid of AT&T Firmware and onto T-mobile firmware on this Active S8 (SM-G892A) like I did for my friend's two Galaxy S7's :(

No issue with patched odin. It flashed. However, tablet has routine to overwrite with stock factory recovery. Need to stop that routine to keep twrp. Check xda device forum for your device or find steps that you can adapt to your needs. Hint - or go to recovery without powering off; good for one twrp run.

I have bought a S9+ on eBay which is the Korean G965N version. I thought it would make little difference in day to day use, but I constantly encounter Korean stuff that I can't get rid of. I had a thorough read through the various threads on xda and it seems that I should be able to flash a G965F Australia stock firmware via the patched Odin as the hardware is identical and the patched Odin will ignore the model miss-matches, correct?!

I have used Odin before, so I am familiar with the process which is pretty simple. I am just a tad concerned that I have missed something and decided to post here. Any comments, warnings, etc. would be appreciated.
[Android Software Development] realbbb:
Yes, patched odin will flash it. One recommendation: I would avoid going up in versions with the flash that is new to you. You want to be able to go back, if there is a firmware-hardware compatibility issue with what firmware you found.

hello, just a noob questions.....

I have an "unlocked" t-Mobile S20 5G (SM-G981U) and wanted to flash it with the SM-G981U1 to removed all the carrier bloats...and I read it will only be possible using a patched odin.

1. do i need the two (2) odin3 zip files? original "odin3 v3.14.1" and the "odin3 v3.14.1_3B_PatcheD"? do i need to overwrite some files and rename others? how do I go about it?

2. My current firmware is "TMB-G981USQU1CTLB" is it ok to flash it with "XAA-G981U1UES1CUA2" and is it the latest firmware for G981U1?

3. After the full flash with (XAA) G981U1...if I restore the backup...will it brings back the old firmware and carrier bloats?

Thank you

I did, and still don't flash it tho.. I get odin error .. unassigned file error code
[Android Software Development] realbbb:
1. Only "odin3 v3.14.1_3B_PatcheD" is needed.

2. I recommend that the sim port be unlocked prior to flashing XAA (unlocked) firmware. No idea of the latest firmware. Check the specific XDA device threads.

3. I would not restore a backup from a different version. You can try it, but It can cause issues.

[Android Software Development] realbbb:
As I understand, there is no way to correct the bad flash without download mode. Work on getting into download mode again. Then flash the original parts of your firmware to get back to booting up normal and this time save your stuff before flashing anything. Flashing firmware always runs risks of losing your personal phone data.

Be sure to search for XDA threads for people in similar predicaments.

Currently, I am in the UK using O2, the sim works, The phone carrier unlocked

I finally took the plunge to flash the 965-F firmware onto my 965-N. Downloaded the Australian version of the firmware from Sammobile, installed USB drivers, used your patched Odin, added the various files where they belong, booted my S9+ into download mode connected, Odin registered the phone and then hit start. Only took a second before I got a FAIL. It said 'repartitioning operation failed'. It was then stuck in download mode, but on 4th or 5th try pressing volume up + power, I eventually got it out of download mode.

Any ideas as to why this didn't work?

Edit: I compared the firmware file sizes between the 965F & 965N and there is a huge difference. It seems that I also need the correct PIT file to flash the 965F firmware to enable appropriate repartitioning. How do I get the correct PIT file for a 256 GB Galaxy S9+ SM-965F???

Never have tried F on an N device. Also never experienced the repartitioning failure. I would imagine it is either incompatible or missing pit.

The pit is in the CSC tar. This is not a zip, but a TAR type compression. Find support for TAR to extract it.
