My N7 ended up in a boot loop after the 5.1 update. I can get to the bootloader and I can get to recovery. HOWEVER, the bootloader is still locked and the debugging mode is not enabled.
In fastboot, I can send the OEM unlock command, but the N7 screen just blinks and comes right back to the bootloader screen saying that the current status is locked.
I can go to the recovery screen and get to the option to sideload, but when I try to sideload the system file, it always says that the footer is wrong and that the signature verification failed. I've tried several different files from the Android factory images.
I've also tried the Nexus Root Toolkit and the SkipSoft Toolkit and they don't seem to work either.
ANY help would be appreciated.
Welcome to the bricked N7 club. Same thing happened to mine after taking the OTA 5.1 update.
+1 Also the same here Lock state - Locked nothing works, also the recovery mode is not working on mine (think I wiped the device somehow)
Anyone know how to fix the recovery mode also? I cant Flash recovery as the bootloader is locked?

I'm still struggling with this. I've tried the Nexus Root Toolkit v 2.0.5 and it doesn't seem to do anything. I can tell it to unlock the bootloader, but at the top of the screen it just says "unlocking now........" and never unlocks it.
Starting to get really frustrated......
Hey. I tried to root my phone with CF Auto Root but it stuck with the Samsung Logo (no bootloop, just stuck there). I managed to restart it. But when I went to the Download Mode I saw a blue screen with a "!" in a yellow warning sign and the line "no command". Then I am in the stock recovery mode.
The system dont allow OTA because I modified the system. I dont have a problem with that, but I need to get into the download mode to flash TWRP.
p.s.: When I am in the stock recovery mode I tried to "boot into bootloader", but it didnt work.
Ok, I give up on android. I just tried it two more times and suddenly all worked fine. DAFUQ?!?!!?
Edit: Ok, I always get the message "Custom Binary blocked by FAP Lock".
What does this mean? It blocks my acces to TWRP. Also I cant flash things with download mode.

I usually heard about an FPR lock message but FAP lock is the first time (samsung really needs to rename that one :laugh: ) anyway , FRP lock happens if you forgot to enable OEM unlock in dev option before trying anything on your phone so if you can access download mode reflash stock firmware and do all the process again otherwise you'll need someone more experienced of me but I'm afraid that if you can't access download mode you're in a bad situation..
If you want to be helped in a better way provide more info about your phone for example wich model you have got, wich firmware were you on before all of this happened and so on
Hope you'll find a solution!
Ok, I managed to reset it. I use the G935F with Exynos. But now I have another problem: The CF-autoroot AND the TWRP make my phone stuck in the Samsung Boot Logo (no bootloop, just stuck). DAFUQ? Why?

It might be necessary to wipe data maybe? In TWRP --> wipe --> format data --> type yes and reboot but be carefull, I didn't use this autoroot since I prefer the "standard way" so make sure you have a backup! Ah, and leave it at least 5 mins at boot logo.. mine takes that much to boot after every flash
Thx, Format Data worked. Now I´m fine.
I had EliteTWRP 3.2.1-0 and restored the official rom from twrp recovery but it was stuck when trying to first-time configure the phone(it wouldn't get past the wifi setup). So I went into twrp to try and format everything and try to flash a different ROM and I faced another problem. Internal storage couldn't be mounted. I wanted to fix that by flashing the twrp 3.1.1 because that worked for me before. I got in the fastboot mode but it said that the phone is locked. That was strange to me so I tried unlocking the bootloader with "fastboot oem unlock [my unlock code]". The prompt came on screen asking me if i wanted to unlock boot loader and factory reset and I said yes. Then my phone restarted and is stuck on "Your device has been unlocked and cant be trusted. ...mod=restore page... Your device is booting now...". From that point it's stuck on that screen and I can't get into the recovery or fastboot mode. I tried the dload method(holding volume up volume down and power button) but that did nothing.
Please help.
Hello. I have an unlocked SM-G935F which I'm unable to boot normally nor in recovery mode, I always get this error message:
Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock.

I can only boot in Download mode.
Apparently this happened because I disabled Developer Options, it may have triggered some kind of anti-tamper protection. I read the only way to fix this is by flashing stock firmware. I have pictures on the Internal Storage I don't want to lose, is there a way to mount the storage or to boot the phone without wiping the internal memory (the bootloader is already unlocked)?
It may work in recovery mode via twrp. If it doesn't work, I believe there is no other way to recover your device.

I do have TWRP installed, but I can't get to it with the Vol Up + Home + Power buttons combination, as I get this error all the time, as I get it when trying to boot normally. Is there a way to boot recovery from Download mode, as it's possible to do in Fastboot mode?
Hi
After a shutdown due to an empty battery, my phone entered a bootloop.
I launched TWRP and tried a backup to my pc via ADB, wich failed.
After this, TWRP got stuck. I removed the battery. At restart, TWRP entered bootloop too.
So i tried factory mode option from the bootloader. It doesnt event start, just shows indefinitely the screen "Your device has been unlocked [...] Your device will boot in 5 seconds".
Do you know any way to restore my data, or even to factory reset ?
My phone is not rooted.
Thanks !
Ok, so now the bootloader isnt working anymore
EDIT : finally i got the bootloader to load again, at least.
Same problem, just made a thread about it and found this post
