Stuck in Samsung Logo Screen. Recovery Mode not loading. FRP Lock on - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Suddenly My phone stopped working. Stuck in samsung logo screen . cannot enter recovery mode. I have only option is to use odin to install software. have downloaded files from sammobile site. Always stuck in initialisation for 30 min and then proceed and fails at re partition operation failed. tried to install twrp . download was halfway and stopped because of FRP Lock ON. How to proceed .. Pls help me..

Remove FRP lock
Download Samsung-combination-firmware (s7 edge ) (your-model-number) flash with odin. Reboot the device. Activate dev settings and reset the device. Reboot to download mode and flash stock Samsung firmware from Sammobile. If it dont work try againe. I remove 2 times FRP lock this way.

https://www.hardreset.info/articles/samsung-combination-firmware/

What is your binary? , you need to flash the combination firmware to get rid of frp lock and then flash a custom recovery or stock rom, you can actually see the binary number on the download mode ( volume down + power + home ) it is indicated with a B in red letters.

I'm also experiencing a similar problem.
My phone is stuck in the Samsung logo and cannot enter recovery, only download mode. It's unrooted and everything stock. The only difference is that I don't have the FRP lock on.
I've been trying to use Odin to restore the firmware, but couldn't do it. The behavior is very similar to what you're experiencing. It takes ~30minutes and then fails to re-partition or says that PIT file wasn't found. I've tried different Odin versions and downloaded different firmware versions.
Tried flashing with the "HOME_CSC" and the regular "CSC".
Also tried using Smart switch or Kies with no success (those don't find the phone in download mode).
Any tips?

Use 7zip to extract the CSC file from the firmware you downloaded from sammobile. After extraction you'll find the PIT file in the folder.
Start Odin 3.14
Go to options tab and enable re-partition and nand erase
Go to pit tab
Click on pit and select the pit file you extracted from the firmware
Now preload the BL, AP, CP and CSC md5 files
Click start and wait

And for removing FRP lock the easiest way of doing this is by using a tool named FRP HiJacker by Hagard

Samsung Galaxy A9 Software Update Faliure

I own a Samsung Galaxy A9
I tried to update the firmware from the original lollypop to (maybe) marshmallow
I failed to update using the software, so i updated using smart switch
It went wrong, the update failed.
Now the blue screen with "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the emergency recvery function in the Smart Switch PC software" appears..
I tried the emergency recovery but it also failed
The only button combination that worked is the power button + volume down --> It restarted, but the same screen appears
I even tried refresing the software with Odin, but it failed.
The phone says "FRP is enabled, not allow download non-FRP aboot binary"
Odin doesn't work
The samsung customer service in singapore (my country) is not able to help. Would really appreciate it if somebody could help me with this.

Are you able to get into bootloader ? If so, you can try using ADB to remove OEM Unlock.. There should be bootloader unlock instructions for Samsung in these forums..

I take it you tried to update via odin originally.
If you give more details if what part of the flashing process failed we may be able to help.
Was it a particular partition that failed to flash.
A screenshot of the failed flashing process with odin would be helpful.
Also you may be able to remove the blue error screen by flashing the stock recovery with odin.
Extract it from the stock firmware, convert it to a tar archive then flash it with Odin.
Boot to recovery and wipe cache.
That itself may get you booting.
There is also Twrp available for your device which could do the same thing.
I had the same issue.. i fixed it yesterday.. what i did was.. go to developer options.. enable OEM unlock.. download CROM from galaxy apps store.. it gives a warning msg regarding unlocking the device.. that isnt an issue..just press ok.. and it will say ur device is unlocked.. and then try reflashing firmware from ODIN.. and then i did root my A9 and its working pretty nice since yesterday..

and also.. if u try to update to marshmallow.. u may get errors.. i assume thats because that is an update from CHINA..NOT from HONGKONG.. i suggest everyone to wait untill hongkong version of Marshmallow is released.. even i flashed marshmallow..had some error and my device was not booting and just booting into recovery with some error like drm something like that.. and then i flashed a hongkong lollipop 5.1.1 version and then my device booted..

I have the exact same problem as michael's... The problem is that we cannot enter the ROM at all... It only stuck at either the blue screen, or the odin mode screen. So we cannot disable neither FRP or Oem unlock...
Well in my chase i think the Crom service is already unlocked, but still... When trying to flash with :
China marshmallow : odin process failed even from the beginning (aboot.mbn <-- bootloader)
Hongkong lolipop : odin process failed during system ext4, saying it's too large

Is the TWRP for A9 available? I cant find any.
and remember this.. DO NOT FLASH CHINA MARSHMALLOW AS OF NOW.. it creates a problem.. FLASH ONLY HONGKONG FIRMWARE using the latest odin..

If odin won't flash and the bootloader is complaining about frp lock.
Then the firmware isn't meant for that device.
If it fails at aboot then it's likely nothing got flashed.
To remove the firmware error warning it's usually enough to flash the stock recovery or twrp with odin.
The stock recovery image can be pulled from the stock firmware and converted to tar with 7-zip then flashed with odin.
Note: twrp wont flash while frp lock is active.

"The stock recovery image can be pulled from the stock firmware and converted to tar with 7-zip then flashed with odin."
Which file do you mean by stock recovery image, and how to flash it with odin. I mean like which file should be converted to tar and should i put it into AP slot and then start odin like usual? thanks

Open the md5 firmware archive with 7zip and pull out recovery.img.
Use 7-zip to create a tar archive then flash with odin in AP slot.

First of all thanks for this..
I tried this and able to access the recovery screen..
But still flashing the stock ROM after wipe/factory reset fail.
I found several problems in the recovery screen:
There is "dm-verity verification failed" error
and there is problem about mounting to /system and formating /sbfs thing..
When I tried flashing.. the problem is also always on the same point.. On the system.img.ext4 it failed, saying volume is too large, ODIN : invalid ext4... <-- Always this failure
I dont understand any of this.

As previously stated the firmware is not intended for your device this is why you are seeing these issues.
Hi,
I have removed the blue screen, i tried flashing the stockrom after wipe/factory reset failed. I found several problems in the recovery screen. There is "dm-verity verification failed" error and error during wiping, there is a problem about mounting to / system and formatting/ sbfsthing. i don't understand any of this jargon.
Hope i can get some help for this, please.

Don't worry about /sbfs other Samsung devices get the same warning.
Dm-verity is usually due to a modified system partition or just the wrong firmware.
Wipe issue is likely because of frp lock.
Thanks Ashyx.
Right now when i try turning on my phone, my phone just keeps restarting and the typical welcome screen appears. Nothing further happens.

Hi all
I want to flash odin a9000 hong kong version, and I am afraid of this looking this thread
I am on latest hong kong rom 5.1.1., unlocked bootloade by crom , rooted, twrp installed...
So, do I need to afraid of this @steberg @ashyx and other advanced users
thanks
Man... Oh maaaan.....
I have also got this problem with SM-A9000.
via smart switch my firmware detected as china built (BPE2). but the emergency recovery always failed at 100%
then i try ODIN, with china firmware ( i try with the newest & even the oldest & i have tried with both full AP instalation & the single instalation BL, AP, CP, CSC) the result:
"FRP is enabled, not allow download non-FRP aboot binary"
with PIT & Re-partition also fail. only add result:
"FRP is enabled, ignore PIT download"
when i try with HK firmware (either newest & all other) it's better while the full instalation fail.
the single instalation made it for BL, CP & CSC and i got into the boot loop which show black screen
and SAMSUNG GALAXY A9(6) logo and i can access recovery.
But AP instalation always fail ( i have tried PIT also), the screen said
"FRP is enabled, ignore PIT download"
"Volume Size is too big 7372800 < 7979008"
"ODIN : Invalid id ext4 image"
my question? is it really wrong firmware? because the BL, CP & CSC can be installed except the AP because of the system.img.ext4.
because with the China Firmware,none can be installed.
also in my recovery there log:
"dm-verity verification failed
E: failed to mount / system (Invalid argument)"
i tried to install TWRP, but still fail,its said:
"FRP is enabled, not allow download non-FRP aboot binary"
and as last resort i even try to tick "NAND erase all" but i just got the same result as above either with China and HK with PIT, with singular or full installation...
i've been working on this phone for several days and now kinda got confused.
1. i dunno how to disable this FRP (my phone no longer able to boot, so the developer option is out of question) is it possible with odin?
2. or is it because E: failed to mount? but i even try Nand erase all yet still no result.
3. or wrong firmware? i tried it all China and HK with PIT & re-partition, still no result.
4. is there a way to wipe everything and erase this FRP thingi ? ( i have tried to wipe all from recovery too) :crying:

S7 Edge G935F // Faulty ODIN flash // Stuck in Bootloader [SOLVED]

Hi Guys,
today I wanted to flash the latest Stock ROM for my device via ODIN. I've done this many times before and (thought) I knew what I was doing. It is my third Phone frome the same carrier and none of them were branded/ locked devices before. Unfortunatly I wasn't aware that this particular device was locked.
After downloading the international firmware I tried to install it and ODIN got stuck while writing the system.img. After that my phone did not boot up (of course). After that I downloaded and tried to isntall the firmware of the carrier, but I had the exact same issue. When I turn my device on I get to an error screen which tells me to execute an "emergency recovery" via the Samsung smart switch software. But it too gets stuck on some point and only gets me to an error screen.
FRP hinders me to install a custom recovery and the stock one does not allow any isntallations via ADB or SD card.
My qustion is: Does anyone know how I can install a rom from here?
I know that I had to have made some changes prior to the flashing, but as I said I was not aware and an Idiot for not double checking.
Since it is not bricked yet I suppose there must be an answer but I can't find anything.
Thanks in advance
Edit:
After only installing the stock bootloader, I am autmaticly entering it when I boot my devive. On the bottom of the screen is an error message: "dm-verity verification failed...
E:failed to mount /system (invalid argument)"
Fix
For anyone in the same situation: I fixed it.
In the end all you have to do is flash the firmware with the fitting PIT file. If you firmware consists of multiple files and there is a "HOME"-file, flash it with this one first on the AP slot in ODIN. After that the same again just use the AP file this time.
My phone is up and running again now.

have u solved your problem ? This problem i am facing on the s7edge nougat ? Plz help ?
Hey,
look at the second post I made in this thread. There is described how I got my S7 up and running again. I'm not sure if it is a valid solution since it felt like trial and error to me, but I'm writing this text from my S7 so it might be worth a try!
Good luck!

I described everything I did in the posts before.
As soon as you can enter the system again all you need to do is deactivate the locks I was talking about in my first post and perform a full wipe.
After that you can install any ROM you want via ODIN just like you are used to.
If that doesn't work for you, I don't have any answers either.
But again:
Prep work:
1. Download most recent ODIN
2. Download the correct firmware for your carrier (from www.sammobile.com)
3. Download the correct PIT file for your device
4. Put your device in download mode
Process:
1. Extract your firmware if it is a zip
2. Start up ODIN
3. Connect your device and check if it's detected by ODIN
3. Put the PIT file in ODIN
4. Put the "HOME" file of your firmware in the PDA slot of ODIN
5. Press start
6. When finished unplug your device and restart phone and ODIN
7. Reconnect your phone and check if it's detected by ODIN
8. Put all the other files of your firmware + the PIT in the correct slot in ODIN
9. Press start
After that my device booted up but still was, as you described too, a little buggy. So I deactivated FRP, activated USB debugging in the dev options, installed TWRP, performed a full wipe and installed another firmware of my choosing via ODIN (without a PIT file this time).
I am running 7.0 on my device now and it works flawlessly.

Does the TWRP flash complete? Can you boot up the OS after you flashed TWRP? (And did you download the correct version of TWRP for your device?)
As a last resort, you could try and flash marshmallow on your device and see if it works there.

Have you tried to perform a regular factory reset via the OS on nougat? Sometimes that does the job, too.
But as I said. I can only give you my best guess here - my phone worked after my procedure, so I didn't investigate further.
And don't forget: Google is your friend.

Well FRP has to be turned off (the button in the menu is called "OEM unlock, the button has to be set to on which deactivates FRP). You don't mention using a PIT file - did you use one?

S7 edge bootloop

Hi,
I realy need your help,
I have a S7 edge who is stuck at the samsung logo.
I have flashed some stock rom (all in 7.0) via odin 3.12 after a wipe factory but nothing. So i decided to try it with Kies and smartSwitch but still nothing.
I have access to recovery and download mode.
FRP lock: On
The phone is not rooted, and the usb debugging not enabled.
The phone print this in the download mode:
ODIN MODE
Download speed: FAST
Product-Name: SM-G935F
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
FRP lock: ON
Secure Downlaod: Enabled
Warranty Void: 0(0x000)
RP SWREV: B:1 K:0 S:0
After the installation of the flashed rom in the download mode, the phone reboot with a blue screen, a progress bar but it stop to 32%, and then it is printed "erasing.." and the phone reboot and is still stuck.
I have re-tryed with Kies, now the phone is with a green screen with 2 white Gears : "android is starting" but it is still stuck (i let him all the night but nothing)
i don't know what to do

You have to use smart switch emergency recovery function to restore your phone. It is a stand alone function within smart switch.
All you need is your phone model and serial number.
Apparently you missed a step when preparing your phone for flashing.
Or you can continue to use Odin which when you plug the USB in will show that a connection is made even though the phone says it's not in download mode.

If that did not work, it looks like the memory chip on the mother board is damaged. Take it in if it is still under warranty.

To do the S7 FRP OFF - Put phone in download mode
Once phone is in download mode.
Flash the files which i will provide.
You Only need to flash boot.tar via odin for respective models (example for s7 use G930 Qualcomm folder) for (s7 edge use G935 Qualcomm folder)
Once you flash the boot tar file. The phone will reboot and it will enable ADB. Run the Bat file which i will provide and it will remove the FRP lock
Once done put the phone in Downlaod mode and flash stock ROM.
The whole process takes less than 10 mins.
Same Idea for S7 Exynos phones... put phone in downlaod mode and then flash the file (G930F(ENGroot) for s7 models & (G935F_Root for s7 edge models). Once done phone will reboot. Then use this bat file (g935f.bat). Once this is executed locks will be removed and phone will go in download mode. Flash stock Boot.img and ALL DONE.

After flashing boot.tar, when i run the .bat, it says error: closed
EDIT: i have to enter into the recovery mod and select "adb update" in order to make my phone detected by my computer
Those files are for the S7. Do they work for the S7 Edge also?
Edit - I tried it and it fails in odin. My phone is bricked.

Works !!!
Sorry to revive an old thread but I think it might help people recover from a bootloop with a bit of addtional explanation than initially provided.
So I have an S7 Edge as a backup phone and hadn't used it for a while. Google FRP was activated. I tried to update to a newer firmware through Odin (can't OTA since it's from Tmo and i'm in Canada). Anyways for whatever reason it failed in the middle and I was stuck in a bootloop that wouldn't stop. I tried downgrading, I tried factory, I tried new versions, nothing would do, I'm assuming because of FRP.
So I followed Rony Raj's post https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71906126&postcount=17 but kept getting stuck. The thing is once you flash the proper Boot.tar file, the phone will appear to still be in a bootloop. You will have to go with the screen (the phone) and the sound of the connection and disconnection from your computer. So basically just sync with the sounds and time it so you open the ''S7 & S7 Edge QUALCOMM.bat'' file at the exact time your phone reconnects and it'll work. I had to do it about 6-7 times before i got it right.
When that is done your phone will restart in download mode. When you do just flash the latest version of the firmware you get from AndroidFileHos*.com or Sammobil*.com. Make sure you select all 4 files in Odin (BL, AP, CP and SELECT CSC HOME for CSC - NOT CSC).
Once all that is done your phone will restart and everything should be fine, well that worked for me
Thanks a lot to @rony raj for putting together the files and the steps to save my G935

Samsung S7 Edge stuck in Boot Loop

Hello everyone!
I have a Samsung SM-G935F which after a system update (a patch) is no longer working, it's stuck in boot loop.
When I turn it on I get: Kernel Rev check file Device 1, Binary 0.
I can get into the Download Mode and it will be recognized by ODIN.
But I don't know how to proceed in order to solve the presented scenario. Can you help me out? Thanks!
Regards,
Oliver
Hi, First you need to try to perform a format through recovery,holding power+home+volume up.
If phone did not boot,Then download firmware from sammobile using an app called SamFrim you can find it by simple search on google.
After you downloaded thr firmware,Launch odin and boot your phone into download mode by holding power+home+volume down.
Extract the firmware and it will generate 5 files
AP
BL
CP
CSC
Home_Csc
Add every file to its correct place in odin
AP
CP
BL
Csc( don't use Home_Csc,Because we want to perform a full wipe)
Then hit start, be careful not to unplug the cable,once it's done phone will auto reboot,leave it,It will do everything by its own.
Btw you must use latest odin version because older version doesn't support Oreo roms
Good Luck

hard bricked sm-377w while trying to remove frp

hi all my grandson cannot remember his login info for his tablet, so i went and followed the instructions below I got to step 5 and could not get it to download recovery or turn it on.
After flashing the combo file there was a screen said factory binary but it would not load past that so i followed the steps and did a factory recover. the samsung logo came on but again it just went on to the factory binary screen. so i turn it off but would not turn back on. What can I do I have been out of the scene for a bit, I remember with the note 3 and 4 you could use a download jig to force it to download mode. I tried that but nothing happens. Any help would be greatly appriciated.
I have successfully Unlocked my SM-T377W from Rogers Canada on 7.1.1
I have been Struggling for a while to Unlock the FRP from this device and finally done it
Now its unlocked and I can use whatever sim card i want also
Successfully Unlocked FRP of my SM-T377W from Rogers Canada on 7.1.1
I have successfully Unlocked my SM-T377W from Rogers Canada on 7.1.1 I have been Struggling for a while to Unlock the FRP from this device and finally done it Now its unlocked and I can use whatever sim card i want also So I have used these 2...
forum.xda-developers.com
So I have used these 2 files [IT IS IMPORTANT TO USE THE CORRECT COMBINATION AND CORRESPONDING STOCK], maybe you can use the same ones I have used if you do not have a choice
1- Combination "COMBINATION_OYA_FA60_T377WVLU3ARG1"
2- Stock ROM "Firmware SM-T377W T377WVLU3BRG4 [7.1.1]"
So what I have basically done,
1- Turn the device off and put the device in DOWNLOAD MODE
2- Flash the Combination Firmware to your device with Odin
3- When the device restarts and it runs the Combination firmware, turn it off again and put it in "RECOVERY MODE" not download, and in "RECOVERY MODE" do factory reset wipe and click yes then It will restart or maybe shut off
4- Turn it on again normally and it will run the Combination firmware
5- Now Turn it off again and put in "DOWNLOAD MODE" this time
6- From the Stock ROM extract the 3 files (boot, sboot and system) from inside the files of the stock ROM, you will find them inside "AP" and "BL" (cause we have BL, AP, CP, CSC), you need to use 7-zip so you can extract whats inside them
7- Create new file/archive (it will be .tar) using 7-zip with these 3 files (boot, sboot and system)
9- Flash the new file you made .tar (that has the 3 files) in the AP section in Odin.
10- Your done
