Hi guys,
I got my Note 4 SM-N910F and installed latest update ROM from sammobile.com, respectively I've upgraded it from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1.
After reboot, I got the following message when restarted:
"This device is locked because of an abnormal factory reset. Sign in to the Samsung account that you have already signed in to on this device to confirm that it belongs to you."
Shortly: Samsung Reactivation Lock Activated
I've tried my Samsung account, on the web it logs in successfully, on my phone it doesn't let me login.
What should I do?
(phone is never locked, bought from Cosmote Romania, now Telekom Romania)
Thanks.
Samsung Reactivation Lock Activated - [ SOLVED ]
Hi guys,
I've succesfully deactivated the Samsung Reactivation Lock on my Samsung Note 4 SM-N910F - Android Lollipop 5.1.1. !!!
I'll tell you in detail how I did it. After 5 hours of data mining and documenting myself, I've gathered all the necessary data to do it.
Statement: On Samsung Note 4 with Lollipop 5.1.1, the Samsung Reactivation Lock cannot be deactivated!
In order to do that you need to downgrade it to KitKat 4.4.4. (thanks to brayhanrd for coming up with this downgrade-first idea in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/reactivation-lock-root-custom-rom-t3097964#post60511431
It can be done following these simple steps:
1) Downgrade the Samsung Note 4 software version from Lollipop 5.1.1 to KitKat 4.4.4 - using the stock 4.4.4 version specifically designed for your phone which can be downloaded from www.sammobile.com.
(Obs: if it was purchased from Verizon then THAT's the version you need to get it. I'm telling you this to avoid a lot of downgrade failures because of mismatch files and Odin writing errors, believe me, I read a lot about it today! )
- Downgrading from Lollipop to KitKat instructions and all the necesarry files to do it (e.g. Odin) can be found here: http://www.androidexplained.com/galaxy-note-4-how-to-downgrade-to-android-4-4-4-kitkat/ (thanks to Doug for documenting this )
If downgrade was successful, it should look like this: http://screencast.com/t/S9ONzxqPvaG
2) A work around to be able to turn off (deactivate) the Samsung Reactivation Lock can be found on this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U23TdbqJehA
- Long story short, the video emphasize what you need to do to get into the phone's Samsung Account, trick the already locked account and re-register yourself with a new (yet existing) Samsung account, which later on, will be seen by Samsung as the phone's default account, thus allowing yourself to register with it. What this guy's doing, basically is using the Text to Speech Samsung update to get logged in to the Samsung Galaxy Apps with this new Samsung account he created (or already had). From there, he gets back to the first phone setup steps and use this Samsung account which will be recognized by Samsung Reactivation Lock as being the default account (because he already signed-in with it into the Samsung Galaxy Apps) and voila, passed the protection.
3) Turn off the Samsung Reactivation Lock: After you tricked the Samsung Lock screen and passed over it reaching the classic, well known home screen, go to -> Settings -> Security -> and find the "Reactivation Lock" option and UNCHECK it! It will ask again for your Samsung account password, insert it and - ONLY THEN - you will have turned off the Samsung Reactivation Lock.
4) Upgrade back to Lollipop 5.1.1: same instructions here, first, upgrade only with stock image made specifically for your Note 4 version, to ba taken from www.sammobile.com or any other respectable place.
If upgrade was successful, it should look like this: http://screencast.com/t/U0BgITnrMmzi
Voila! you have a fully functional Note 4 phone again!
I hope this post will help you spare those 5 hours I used for reseaching these things!

Not possible to downgrade 5.1.1 to 4.4.4
Funny you say you downgraded from 5.1.1 to 4.4.4 because everywhere I've read the consensus is the new bootloader makes this impossible.
Re: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/help/downgrading-5-1-1-t3206848/post62923032
"If you upgraded your boot loader past OB7 (OE1, OF5 or OG5) You can no longer downgrade."
I tried your intructions anyway with the proper stock rom for my SM-N910P with 5.1.1 (OG5) and no dice. Odin failed right away.
Thanks anyway!

Let me help you further because IT IS POSSIBLE. I've done it! Are you sure you read my thread correctly where I've stated that:
...using the stock 4.4.4 version specifically designed for your phone
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You need to download a stock version of 4.4.4. specifically made for your phone version, model and mobile operator.
maybe for the sm-n910f but not the sm-n910p
I greatly appreciated your response, I spent almost the entire day yesterday working on this with no success.
Just so you know, I did in fact download the stock rom made specifically for my sm-910p, here:
http://androidromupdate.com/sprint-galaxy-note-4-sm-n910p-stock-firmware/
I'm on N910PVPU4COG5 now which is Lolipop 5.1.1 now.
I tried downgrading to N910PVPU1ANK2 Kitkat 4.4.4 and no go.
That is definitely the stock firmware for my device.
I did a factory reset & wiped cache first, then tried flashing with odin and after a successful md5 check it failed.
Not sure but maybe because you had the international version the bootloader is different?
But again, I'm sure it didn't work at that seems to be the consensus everywhere else too. that once you go above OB7 there's no going back on the N910P.

I would suggest to not give up just yet.
Verify the following:
a) From the page you gave me http://androidromupdate.com/sprint-galaxy-note-4-sm-n910p-stock-firmware/ - I know it sais there It cannot be done, just ignore that - did you installed the Drivers on your computer before you plugged in your phone?
b) Did you tried both 4.4.4. versions available?
c) Did you tried multiple times to flash it? As it opten happens to crash 1,2,3 time until you get it done right. (in between the flashes, try reconnecting the phone to the computer and restarting it).
Try Try Try Again...
Thanks for your advice. I would like to downgrade and so haven't given up just yet; you gave me hope (even a shot in the dark)!

A: Yes, I have installed the drivers on my computer and successfully flashed with odin before and my com port is detected, everything is working on that end. However, I read today someone said they could only use odin 3.10 to flash without it failing so I will try that too.
b) Did you tried both 4.4.4. versions available?
A: No, I'm going to try the older version of KitKat 4.4.4 next, N910PVPU1ANIE
c) Did you tried multiple times to flash it? As it opten happens to crash 1,2,3 time until you get it done right. (in between the flashes, try reconnecting the phone to the computer and restarting it).
A: OK, I will try this and report back.

Samsung Reactivation Bypass Alternative
Hi all,
This is my first posting and reply to a thread. Hope all is doing well.
After many many many attempts to either bypass or deactivate Knox's reactivation lock.. I was finally successful. I"m sure you can imagine how i was jumping up and down..
Any who, here's how i did it:
What you need:
1- An OTG Cable
2- A USB flash drive
3- Samsung Google bypass
First thing I did was factory reset my Verizon Note 4 from the recovery mode.
If you have another android phone available, that would be useful. Take the OTG cable plus it into the extra android phone and plug in your USB flash drive. It will either pop up or ask you to reformat the drive. You want to make sure that the USB flash drive is compatible with android devices. If you don't have an extra phone, reformat your USB flash drive using CMD (format Fat32.)
After that's completed, plug your flash drive into your laptop/desktop and drag the file you downloaded (Samsung google bypass) to your flash drive.
IF YOU CAN'T BEAT THEM, JOIN THEM!
Power on your android phone, after it turns on, plug your OTG cable into your phone and attach your USB flash drive. Wait a few seconds so your phone can recognize the new hardware. A folder from the flash drive should pop. Now run the Samsung Google Bypass file. This will take you to the settings on the phone. Connect to your WiFi.
Click on the Security tab and check "Unknown Sources" and then click ok.
In the same tab> Click on where is says "Go to website". That will open a browser. If for any reason you don't have that option in that tab, in the settings options, click on "Accounts" and add your gmail account to the phone. Go back to the settings options and click on your Google account. We need to get this to the browser.
After clicking on your account, scroll down to where is says "Smart Lock for passwords", go ahead an open that up.
You will see "Google Account" - Click on it. That should take you to a browser.
(If for any reason with those option don't take you to a browser, search the settings section to find a way. THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY)
Now we are almost done!
Download Aptoide> It will ask you all the prompts to install> after its done, click on open.
Download Knox> it will ask you to upgrade> go ahead and upgrade it> after thats done, open up the knox app and create a new account. This will now save to your phone.
You can unplug the OTG cable and restart your phone. But before doing so, make sure that account is was successfully created.
You will go back to set up wizard. Go ahead and set up your phone. You should not have any problems now.
Hope this works for you as it did for me.
Thanks for reading

Forgot to mention, when you download the Samsung Google bypass, make sure its a APK and if its in a rar file, unzip it.

no job in 5.1.1 ok, not open browser or other to otg in or sidesync or other, 5.1.1 and 6.0 its no possible downgrade and not possible unlock account samsung
sm-n910p blocked
Hi guys,
I got my Note 4 SM-N910p and installed latest update ROM from sammobile.com, respectively I've upgraded it from 5.1.1. to 6.0.1.
After reboot, I got the following message when restarted:
"This device is locked because of an abnormal factory reset. Sign in to the Samsung account that you have already signed in to on this device to confirm that it belongs to you."
Shortly: Samsung Reactivation Lock Activated
I've tried my Samsung account, on the web it logs in successfully, on my phone it doesn't let me login.
What should I do?
Note 4 (N910C)
MY phone n910c is running to 6.0.1 Android Version.But i want to costomized Rom to install it.No Recovery is installed because it binary blocked by Reactivation Lock.How is it possible to Turn it off. I tried best but no problem solved.
Help me out to turn off reactivation lock.
Yo, so glad I found this thread. 4.4.4 saved my note 4
So I upgraded my G900V to Marshmallow and then did a factory reset after I verified it worked because I wanted to start fresh, but now the setup screen says "abnormal factory reset" and is asking for my Samsung Account credentials. When I try to sign in it says "processing failed" every time and won't go past the page...
What I have tried (all have failed):
1. resetting my Samsung Account password (twice now...)
2. a second factory reset
3. using find my mobile to unlock it
4. flashing the stock kitkat firmware (fail with odin)
5. flashing a custom recovery (fail with odin)
6. using the OTG cable method (nothing displays on the screen...)
7. using the sidesync method (nothing displays on the screen...)
8. Called Samsung Support 3 times:
-regular support # - told to call the accounts # during business hours
- accounts # - told that they would have it remotely unlocked by the next morning (of course they don't follow through)
-accounts # - given the runaround treatment for 1.5 hours until a supervisor in the returns department tells me there is nothing more they can do and don't have the capability to service it (apparently it's still under warranty even (not that it matters.....))
So does anyone know a work around? I would really like to get my phone functional again.
The phone is not stolen! If anyone wants proof I am happy to supply multiple clear photos of the phone itself and the imei number, which is clean.
I managed to bypassed it, created samsung account, phone works but i can`t set custom recovery, samsung support doesn`t help either. I have g900p.

Unfortunately mine doesn't have any option close to that. Lucky for me though I think Samsung came around, I tried submitting a repair request for a second time and this time I was approved and it will be covered under warranty.

I'm able to use the downgrade/OTG method to get access to the phone, but then I am in a situation where I can't turn off the Reactivation Lock, it just stays stuck on. What were the ADB commands that you used to turn it off? Thanks for your help.

I can`t turn it off. I even managed to create samsung account but after I enter password nothing happens
UPDATE:
so Samsung not only fixed the problem, but they also restored the phone to like new condition (it was in very beat up but no cracks condition previously) so I really have to give props to them for their amazing repair team. It took about a week total if anyone is wondering.
I have a new method to remove reactivation lock it is confirmed working. It works on Samsung eMMC and Toshiba eMMC.

If the firmware isn't installing it's the wrong one.
You need to go into developer settings and enable OEM UNLOCK.

I would ensure you are using the correct account. My guess is its not.
The Google account will be associated with your device. If it's the correct account then you should be fine.
If you've installed the wrong firmware then Google may see your device as different.
I would sign into your account you think was used on the device via the web then go to Device activity & notifications and ensure your device is listed.
https://accounts.google.com/login
I can see two Devices
1.Samsung Galaxy Tab A6
2.Samsung Galaxy Tab A 7.0 LTE
Mine is Galaxy Tab A6, SM-T285, Recovery email address is correct.
But when i try to login that account on my phone, google says "Sign in with a google account that was previously synced on this device"
Are you not able to wipe data?

Can you reformat those links as they're just html nonsense.
Just post the links.
Also you haven't stated what your issue is?
Hello guys, i want to remove my samsung account from my device G900F but when i go to Settings/Accounts/Samsung account click on my account and select Remove account, after i enter my password it says processing failed, if i enter the wrong password it says wrong password.
I cannot sell my phone due to this problem. I know my account password is 100% correct because i can sign in to my account no problem.
Also i cannot disable reactivation lock because everytime i click it and enter my password it stays Enabled every time.
Any help would be really useful thanks!
UPDATE: I solved all my problems by flashing kitkat 4.4.2 firmware. Logged in to my account succesfully and disabled reactivation lock and then removed my account completely from the phone.

Man finding this short thread was pure luck. I've went through virtually every solution out there with no success, Samsung has plugged EVERY damn hole in that 6.0.1 Version (Germany, DBT) and yesterday I discovered that the S5 can be downgraded without any hiccups (not the usual thing, is it) and then I was gonna re-try all these crazy loopholes (calling ER number and jumping to settings via SMS, links, Chrome, etc) but while searching came across this and thought thats about the dumbest thing there is and that will for sure NEVER work, but alas, it did.
Bypass Samsung Reactivation Lock in two steps:
1.) Download first iteration of the S5 Firmware for your variant (Android 4.4.2 from early 2014)
2.) Reboot, login, done.
This applies to devices with existing Samsung ID and Passwort and the error "Processing failed" when logging in.
I doubt this works when you don't have a password, but I wouldn't be surprised if you did just get a new password online (account.samsung.com) and then try again with that???
