SM-T515 - FRP Locked - Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers

Hello, I got FRP locked Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (SM-T515) from lady who forgot PIN and even google account.
Did someone manage to bypass FRP somehow?
I tried to flash stock firmware, but FRP lock didn't get removed.
I can't do much because bootloader is locked and USB debugging is not enabled.
Tried to flash combination file but it failed, because binaries don't match and I didn't find combination file for my ROM version.
PDA: T515XXS4ATE3

give it back to the "lady". Its the right thing to do. If its not stolen then there is plenty of threads, websites, videos you can search for that provide solutions on various devices and android versions.
I personally dont assist ppl in bypassing security measures on user devices because you never know whos being honest.
u can also ask the lady for proof of purchase then reach out to samsung and see if they will remove it.

She already showed me the proof of purchase. In reality, it's her young son who forgot both passwords and she didn't know what to do and I just wanted to help her.
I tried everything I found on the internet and nothing works. So yeah, you're probably right. Reaching out to Samsung is probably the best option.

Anyway to bypass FRP on 7.0 with locked bootloader?

I bought a N6p from a person on offerup. Came home to found out it is Googled locked with FRP. The person isn't responding to my emails, etc. I was able to get pass the setup once and see that the OS is 7.0. Has anyone found and FRP bypass with 7.0? Fastboot flashing unlock is not allowed. I don't think OEM unlocking is enable in developer mode. Thanks in advance. I've tried all the things from rootjunky, but they are all patched.
Model: NBD90X
OS: 7.0
OEM unlocking: Disabled
FRP Locked
Working on it atm.
I got the same issue, trying 2 or 3 ideas i have, i will get back to you with news ASAP.
Even if you get to the setting pages, it wont let you enable developers options. Anyone have a clue?
Yep just got into the same boat, bought a 6P off swappa and locked out of phone.......
same problem with me! does anyine know if you can bypass the frp with a pc program?
Anybody?
Good Luck guys, I got a hold of original owner......
Bump
So let's say for example a thief gets a hold of my phone and he wants to bypass FRP he can just come on XDA and boom it's posted all over this site. Get where I'm coming from? Nobody will help.

I haz fone bought from stolen. Can you include FRP reset software mod for my 5 Finger discount phone?
Like swappa would let a phone be FRP, I have had TONS of people I met purchase a phone from swappa and not one problem. And for those who purchased theirs from craigslist and offerup or what not you SERIOUSLY STOLE, I mean did'nt factory reset the phone in front of them? This is not a new technique. I do it EVERY phone I buy and sell and I even RESET THE PHONE IN FRONT OF YOU. Yoy have a situation that no one will help. Ask swappa for a followup. And Offerup is a stealfest.
Like troyd28 said. It's not going to happen.
No help on this forum. Noe should there be.
You can't get to adb through the bootloader? If you can get a hold of a copy of an efs you might be able to change the imei and serial numbers. Check the OnePlus one forums , some people over there had similar problems.
Though I don't know how to flash with a locked bootloader, maybe roll back to offical 6.0, there was a method to bypass for one of the versions.
Have you tried contacting Google? It may be a pain in the ass but also check what kind of protections the service you purchased from offers.
There is an FRP bypass now for 7.0.
Ok guys I will tell you this only once.
Talks about Changing the IMEI are illegal and not allowed on XDA.
No, this forum does needs to exist. There is a way to bypass FRP. Motorola had to have built it in for their own use and repairs.
Somebody will figure out or spill the Moto codes to bypass FRP in Nougat 7.1.1.
How nice for you tech_head. I know it must be cold at the top of your idealistic mountain. Most thieves do not know what XDA or what hacking even is or know it exists - that is why they are bottom feeders and ignorant and trade a stolen phone for a bad of dope.
The person who purchases this stolen phone is an innocent victim as well. There will be a way to hack 7.1.1 eventually and I will be the first to pre-praise the hacker who figures it out.
Get over yourselftech_head.

I bypass FRP with 7.1.2 on a pixel with lock bootloader. ..

Is there truly a way to get past the FRP security?

For starters, I've got the Tmobile version (not sure if that makes a difference, but I figured I should say it)...
I'm sure I tried everything I could except the method that involves the OTG cable. Trying to root it or apply twrp recovery only fails each and every time through odin.
I tried Smartswitch. I tried Kies... Kies actually took a really long time and I thought it was going to work, but it didn't.
I even tried to do some wifi/server things with another phone by using thethering (is what I believe it was)...still no luck.
The phone belonged to a sister of mine, but she couldn't remember the password she used to log in. She passed the phone on to my dad. He was never able to get in and now I've got it.
I thought rooting it would fix the problem, but that's because I knew about the chokehold security on it... the FRP business.
Can someone please help me? My sister says she's working on it (which probably means she isn't or it's on the back burner). I would really like to use the camera on the S5.
Is there another direction I can go in to get into this phone? It's driving me a little nuts at this point.
good luck getting around it without paying an unlocking company. if its actually your sisters phone, you might want to poke the bear, otherwise youre gonna be spending $?? to get it unlocked. I say ?? after the $ because of the variability of the price from site to site. I know that idoneapps.com does it for $35, and i trust their work completely, but ive also seen people talking about other sites advertising that theyll do it for less from companies out of zimbabwe. take the location of the company for what its worth. Anyways, poke the bear aka, your sister (no insult intended, just a euphemism)
Thanks -- offense taken. I hope she's able to recover the password. I was almost certain I'd get a reply like this. It's annoying, but here I go-a-pokin. Thanks.

yeah, its the pits, but either spend some money for a third party workaround, or get your sister in contact with samsung

Come to find out that my sister had dropped the phone and couldn't turn it back on. She sent it to our dad... and he wiped the phone without thinking to turn off the security. He didn't know though... he came from an S4 and I don't think they had it on there. I've got a note 3 (my first real smartphone) so I had no clue this would happen.
He keeps telling me it's google and not Samsung. Apparently a year or so ago when he asked her for the password, she said she emailed google and they were going to send her the password in two weeks... I asked why two weeks and he couldn't give me an answer.
This truly is the pits. I'm literally still waiting for a call from either of them at this point.

OnePlus 6T FRP Unlock Question

I have a OnePlus 6T that is FRP locked and was wondering if someone can help me unlock it? I have tried the talkback way but I only have wifi on the phone so the maps don't load for me to get to google chrome.
I also have tried flashing but my computer doesn't seem to want to install the qualcomm driver. When I plug in the phone it doesn't install the driver either, I am running Windows 10 64 bit on a Microsoft Surface Pro.
If anyone can help me it would be appreciated. Also, I am located in San Diego and if someone wants to charge me to do it for me I am willing to go that route.
Not trying to come off as rude, but people on these forums are probably not likely to help you in any way. If your device if FRP Locked, you must have the account information that corresponds to the phone. As this question is usually asked with stolen phones because you do not know the account info, unlocking FRP is illegal. Ask the phone's previous owner for their info, or if purchased online ask for a return/refund.

I understand your point but there are many threads discussing FRP unlocking for other devices on this forum.
Yeah, no one is going to help you here. Sorry dude. If the phone is legit then you should be able to ask whoever's account is locked.
Otherwise, a new account on XDA asking for help FRP unlocking a phone.. Prolly wont get what you are looking for.
Actually, someone PM'd a solution and I unlocked the phone. Instead of getting to Google chrome through maps I accessed it through YouTube. Then installed the FRP bypass apk.

Good to know you were able to unlock your stolen phone.
FRP bypass is not legitimate and is always suspect.
Either you stole a phone or bought a stolen phone.
Might want to keep the bragging to a minimum.

I didn't steal anything. I'm a Uber driver and someone left there phone in the car. I found it underneath the car seat and I didn't get anyone asking about it. I don't go around stealing phones. That's how people get hurt.

Sorry, but it is a stolen phone and unfortunately someone here helped you steal a phone.
You may not have taken it from the hand of someone, but you didn't buy it and you didn't turn it into the police.
Finders does not equal keepers.

Turn it in to the police? For them to do what? How old are you? Seems like you are more intent on being right then doing the right thing IMO

It was an example.
But you can claim indignation if you like but I'm not the one with the phone that doesn't belong to me.
I do know that if you leave the phone plugged in the person is more likely than not to call and locate.
If you pop the SIM and put it in another phone you can get the number and leave the owner a VM.
So with a moderate amount of effort you can usually find the owner.
Been there, done that.
Found, stolen. Whatever. It's not yours.
Now I'm done.

I found it underneath the car seat with the battery dead. I charged it and turned it on and didn't receive any calls for 2 weeks. I'm not playing babysitter. If you don't claim your phone through Uber or call me, which you can easily do, then that goes in the lost and found for 2 weeks until I sell it.
Just because you want to sit on your high horse in a hypothetical situation doesn't mean anything. If you were in the possession of the phone you would do the same or worse. At least I waited for someone to claim it. I'm not responsible for someone's absent mindedness.

Generally speaking to turn off FRP delete/remove all accounts from your phone if you can still get into system. IE: Google/Samsung accounts.

LOL. Had the link said that Zeus came down from the heavens and gifted it upon Kenzyyy, while jumping on 1 leg and singing the hokey pokey.... Kenzyyy would have had the same exact case.
I don't know why everyone doesn't just say that they stole it/bought a stolen phone/were given the stolen phone from a friend that realized it was useless after they took it. It's amazing how 100% of the people on XDA asking for this, have this exact same scenario. Now, onto googling on how to crack 7 FRP locked phones for a friend
(He was gifted them, as he works in a cell phone repair shop & they give a discount on a brand new phone to those people...literally the same one anyone else could have negotiated to w/o an FRP phone)
Kidding...Kidding...But it was just to illustrate how preposterous these unoriginal fake stories always are. At least be a little creative, like you would be when scamming the MSL code from a Sprint rep. By claiming that you're a developer and need it to test your apps functionality.
[He was only gifted 6 phones, and they all had cracked glass and damaged OLED's. And those people actually paid $5-$10 more than the non-FRP phone trade in people that negotiated well. Had they not offered the trade-in, the people wouldn't have realized it was just a normal discount]

I used to buy devices from police auctions 99% of which where frp locked. But by law I owned the devices. I had official paper work. So in these cases frp bypass was legit. But. Every ones brother cousin dad mom everytime forgot their password and I've heard the stories so many times now almost identical in each case. Its uncanny. ????

Exactly. There are legit cases when people have them in their possession. But, when someone answers "My case is the same. I've got the phone from close relative...." It doesn't exactly exude confidence. It simply shows that the person literally didn't even try. I mean, who immediately says that their case is exactly the same, to the very first story they're told.
This ruins it for the rest of the people that legitimately have them. As the mods don't want many of these questions answered. Not only that, there are threads where it's posted in detail, yet the OP decided that they're too lazy to search on their own. Not exactly surprising from someone that states "My case is the same. I've got the phone from..."
If for nothing else, these are usually good for a laugh.
""
It's not so absurd actually.
My neighbor gave me her s8 before moving back home. In fact she replaced it simply because of a tiny scratch... Some people? Anyhow. It never occurred to me until that night ****ing with it trying to reach her... She has yet to respond...I ended up trying to reset it and found this... Which I've never encountered before. I was a software engineer back in the day (University of Michigan Mathematics Dept.GO Blue!) and upon seeing this I figure piece of cake. Well I'm now impressed and indeed relish a challenge. For I really don't need the phone. But I'm considering a reflash approach.
I understand the purpose of such rules but it does stink when your real agenda is intellectual.

How do I unlock after reset?

Ok, so my sister drives Uber and 3 months ago a passenger left their galaxy s10+ in her car. Yes, she tried to reach out to them, and now that its been over 90 days and noone has claimed it, she decided that she wants to gift it. Well... She went on youtube and looked up how to factory reset. Now when it powers on, it says "unauthorized attempt to reset..." So shes asked me to try to access it. Now, i haven't used a samsung phone since before Knox was integrated. I dont know how the security works or how i can bypass the google account verification. I dont even know if its possible to access and use the phone now. Im basically a noob here. Can anyone help me out?

Which model is it? If its the US model (G975U or G975U1) i dont think theres a way. If its the international model (G975F) i believe someone has accomplished bypassing protection. Dont know the exact method though.
Sent from my SM-G975U1 using XDA Labs
I can only assume that it is a US model
It sounds wildly unlikely that anyone would leave behind a $1000 phone and ignore someone's attempt to reach out and return it. And unless XDA changed its rules posting any methods to get around the lock on a phone gets you banned. Samsung customer service could likely have found the owner of the phone if there had been any sincere desire to return it to the proper owner.

Your sister is uber driver. Do you think the passenger don't have your sister's car info? I smell something fishy about your story
I appreciate the concerns as to the legalities of my question. Yall are saying the same kinds of things i did. In the end, i told her "its impossible, sorry." And I've washed my hands of it.
Chat me on whatsapp or telegram. 085738068579. I will help you out!!!
