OK, I have searched for this, but have not found it in this context. I did a flawless OTA and install of 4.3 on my S4 Active. After install I had an image of an open padlock and the word "custom" show up on a boot screen, Used to get this in the early root days, but not for several month after following some tips elsewhere in these forums.
I also had trouble connecting WiFi unless I rebooted. Whether I needed or not, I did a complete factory restore, which seems to have cleaned up the WiFI thus far, but not the lock/custom situation.
Any ideas or suggestions?
I'm wondering if anyone struggling with Smartlock as hard as I do
I have deodex OC4 rooted! First time I was setting up new device I came from NG3 - ND3 down - Towelroot - OC4 deodex. Smartlock didn't work for me at all (I tried all type of combinations fingertip, pattern, code, pin and trusted devices/places/on-body didn't try trusted voice), really nothing worked! At the same time I had all these options in smartlock menu. I was suspecting that gps works too slow/bad/inaccurate and can't detect trusted location immediately as I try to unlock my S5. So Itried TopNTP app, something went wrong (apparently) and my cell stuck in a bootloop. I had to downgrade to NCA with Odin - Towelroot - OC4 deodex again. But this time I might installed/updated apps differently and trusted devices/trusted voice/trusted places work like a charm with the pattern lock! BUT I don't have "on-body detection" option at all and it's a nice one. Stupid touchwiz and locked bootloader are killing me. Please help!!!
Offtop: I got my old LG G3, loaded Cloudy 2.3 (mostly stock ROM) and all smart-lock options and any combinations work 100% without any issues at all!
I found out many people are facing this on multiple threads
So i decided to create one separately.
I have a new SM-G925F running 5.0.2 SG6E
Once you root the device the Reactivation Lock becomes ON
You cant turn it off even from the FindMyPhone site
The Root i used PingPong Tool
Once you ran it you can turn R/L off. I still couldn't
even i created a new Samsung Account and used Smart Switch,
Even Removing the account did not work
How to over come this to install xposed and its framework!?
P.S Reactivation Lock stops you from flashing Xposed on Download Mode via Odin v3 ?
Hello guys!
I have updated my N920C to MM 6.0.1 Officially. Unfortunately I didn't enable the developer option and OEM was not unlocked also. I tried to restore or recover my device with KIES and RootJunkey method as well. Neither I can install a custom recovery nor It could be fixed with reset method because of FRP lock. Kindly help me getting out of this problem. Everytime it gets stucked on Google account login after reset And I really don't remember that account which was logged in previously.
Error Message: This device was reset. To continue, sign in with a google account that was previously synced on this device. (and it can't be skipped).
Note: I tried OTG method but it did not work. Bcoz Marshmallow does not allow the file manager to popup directly. That method is supported with Android L or less.

Hey everyone.
Problem with Galaxy 10 (Sprint) downloading OTA updates. (Greyed out / disabled).
Stock phone, not rooted.
I have two of these phones, one update is OK but the other is disabled. Not sure what I did or what happened but need help if possible.
Settings, Updates, option to check/download updates, and option to use wifi are both greyed out and disabled... I have tried updating prl, profile, and hard reset... Tried update on/off option in developer options. Nothing. Two days searching with no info I can find on the web.
Any ideas ?
Thanks!
[Resolved - Edited] - Factory reset, Power+Bixby+VolUp boot, clear cache, factory reset.

In settings under general management have you tried "reset network settings" ? Have you tried clearing the cache partition? How about booting in safe mode to see if the options become available.
MrMOOn, no I did not try Odin...
Tel864, yes I tried all that except safe mode. Safe mode was a disaster on my other phone so I stay far away. ... I also chatted with Samsung and Sprint (pointless).
I ended up just factory resetting the phone.
It works now.
Thanks for the suggestions!
