Has anyone been working on rooting the Verizon tab s2, model sm-817v? I have brought up developers options and there is OEM unlock, which from what I can figure out is a bootloader unlock.... it shuts off phone capabilities, unsure what that pertains to on a tablet though.....
Hi everyone
I have purchased a second hand s10 and it worked well until I reset it and now it's asking for a google verification to get into the phone (what is this called?)
Is there a way I can bypass that email to get into the phone?
I have contacted the seller and used his email but it asks me for password and he doesn't want to provide it, is it possible for him to remove the verification need on the device he sold remotely from his account without me having to do anything ?
Thank you
The verification is called FRP and it is designed to stop people from stealing phones to be honest, I am unsure if you can bypass it at the mo but I remember a lot of threads regarding this on other Samsung forums. Never read up on it as I did not need to bypass it.
I am putting the correct details I have used both my details as well as the owners details but it keeps looping back to the screen where it asked for the verification email agian
I have also flashed it and it didn't work
This doesn't seem to be something to do with credentials but not sure what do to now as I can't use the phone anymore
Bypassing FRP lock threads like this one usually get locked. Not calling you a thief, but for all we know the phone could be stolen. I'd suggest contacting the original owner.
Thank you for the reply, I understand how such request can be misinterpreted
I have already contacted the owner and used his credentials but didn't work
I have used my credentials but didn't work
I have contacted google and they said this issue might be samsung related
I have contacted samsung and they said this issue is google related
I believe this is a software glitch actually because I use the credentials for google verification, it goes through but then it loops back to the same screen that asks for the email/number again
Tried multiple ways but it kept looping back again and again.
I finally managed to fix the issue by bypassing the FRP but I believe this is something widespread and it's more of a software glitch where genuine users might not be able to use their phones after resetting it.
Here a few users describing the same issue I had

Does this still work today, June 2022?
Hellow, I am the owner of a Samsung Galaxy S6 I think its Europe version because I bought it in spain.
In march 2020 I had decided to factory resset my phone because I had a lot of junk. To my surprise when the Welcome screen for a setup showed up and I was trying to set it up (I did this probably once a year) a message of "The phone was factory resseted on a anormal way please sign in to your samsung account to unlock the device". Keep in mind here in spain we were in a complete lock down. I did put my email and password it showed 2 messages and noething happned, and I know its not the wrong password because if i did type a random thing it will show "Wrong ID" so I tried contacting samsung but as we were on a lockdown it was imposible, I tried from find my phone (samsung version) and I clickcked on unlock phone (while the phone was connected to the inernet) but noething happned as a last resource I tried flashing a custom rom (I had Samsung Official Rom) but when I go to oddin mode or download mode it shows: Reactivation Lock: ON.
Is there any way to unlock it, my mothers phone is broken and she is in need of one.
I have attached some imagenes.
I hope I can find a fix, because the most anoing thins is that is supposed to be a mecanisim so if the phone gets stolen, but i have been the owner of it for 5 years
I use my S5 for my RC hobby (Traxxas app to power my X-Maxx lights and settings) and I recently did a hard factory reset to get rid of everything else on the phone and speed it up. It reset fine and the wizard lets me setup wifi and then my google account but then it prompts me to sign into my Samsung Account but I can't. I keep getting the error "Processing Failed" (see screenshot below...).
Samsung told me the phone needs to be reflashed so they gave me a Samsung Repair Center near me (Best Buy Geek Squad) but they said they don't have the software to reflash it b/c the S5 is too old. Then Samsung told me I can mail it to them for free and they they will reflash the software but they just emailed me today saying they don't have the software to reflash it.
So now what do I do? I don't want to spend money on another phone since this worked just fine until after the factory reset. I just wanted to use this phone for the Traxxas app and nothing more. I'm hoping someone can help point me in the right direction. Hopefully nothing too complicated but I can follow steps...
P.S. Will I still have issues getting past this Samsung Account login screen if I buy a cheap unlocked S5?

Samsung has a kind of FRP Google-ish protection, someone else signed in the Samsung account without log out correctly previous to factory resetting the device.
What model?

Not sure what you mean with, but my answer still remains, Samsung has this lock to all Samsung devices, not only those models, when the device was reset, without logging out first of the Samsung account, in a reboot, device will prompt for the Samsung ID and the password, of course, if no one has signed in, previously, this measure is not triggered.

Well, maybe, but not that only VZN and AT&T, (or probably you mean from the US branded variants)
Samsung has the Reactivation lock enabled for all devices since various Android versions ago, from what I remember, at least MM.
Also, can depend on the specific build number.

Because ATT and Verizon S5 models have that FRP thingy on by default and they are cloneware models that are not even running stock Samsung Touchwiz as it has been heavily modified to fit their network. I know this because I did a firmware downgrade with my Verizon S5 and that popped up. My Tmobile S5 when I downgraded from 6.0.1 to 5.0 that screen didn't pop up. My N910C running 5.1.1 I did a factory reset from recovery and that screen didn't pop up.

I did a factory reset of my G900T on Kitkat and that didn't pop up. No issues relogging into my Samsung account afterwards.

Which proves my point that the ATT and Verizon models are basically cloneware models since I didn't encounter the device is locked due to a abnormal factory reset . I don't know why you keep insisting that ATT and verizon models are basically stock Samsung firmware phones.

Don't say that I said something that I didn't.
I talked about the Reactivation Lock, present in all Samsung devices, at least, from what I remember, since MM, (And hilariously, you mentioned KitKat), and I'm repeating my words, as you can check.
It doesn't matter if the device is sold to any country, or region, or whatever.
After that, a carrier can put what they want over that firmware, (they have this established in the contract), but the Reactivation Lock feature will be still there.
Improving security is not an election, it's a plus, that Samsung offers. For what reason, carriers couldn't want this feature, till the point of discard it from its devices?
If you didn't know about Reactivation Lock, well, now you know, you will find an impressive amount of information, about it, on the net.

Imo it's only present on the Verizon and AT&T models like I said because Tmobile firmware is close to a G900F model firmware as you can get and I did a factory reset with my Samsung account still present on the device and that did not pop when I logged back into my Samsung account. You apparently still can't grasp the concept that the Verizon and AT&T models are basically cloneware models aka heavily modified do they don't resemble stock Samsung firmware.
