Galaxy Note 5 Tmobile - need FRP bypass - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

forgot PW for note 5, have not used in a while. It is on stock Nougat, USB Debug not set.
I tried the root junky realterm thing but that's not working, and I don't know if I can Odin downgrade or anything.
Any ideas how to get this thing to bypass FRP?
thanks!

I myself haven’t found anything helpful even with an OTG cable. I suspect it’s kinda moot on a Note 5 running nougat.

Finally got it on my own. Had to Odin flash an eng sboot, then I had ADB Shell privileges so I ran a shell dd command to wipe security, which took off FRP lock as seen in DL mode, then reflashed stock. Now I've got FCs so I am going to reflash with re-partition enabled and try to basically do a full clean wipe flash and get it booted right.

Hey I have a note 5 that's Google locked. How did you get yours to bypass the lock?

How do I root an HTC One GE on a Mac? I'd like to do so before I set up the phone tomorrow. Done some googling and couldn't find an answer. Did my N4. Is it the same files/procedure?

you just said you did your N4.
procedure is exactly the same
or after you do fastboot oem unlock from the bootloader screen you can follow my tutorial for recovery and root.

Just make sure you get the HTC One recovery and not the N4.. based on your lack of knowledge, based on your multiple questions, I would hold off a bit though.. as far as I know there isn't a confirmation as to if the recovery from the normal One is compatible with the GE One. I could be wrong though

Thanks. I guess I'll hold off. I figured there had to be some custom files and that they arent all plug and play. Thanks for your help. I'll prob wait a couple weeks. I just wanted to do it immediately to avoid having to wipe again.

You don't need to wipe for a recovery. When you get the device and its good to go, go into fastboot and type
"fastboot oem unlock"
Then after you unlock it reboot into the stock recovery and do a factory reset.. then hold off for recovery. Once your unlocked you no longer are required to wipe for anything

Rooted using a combination of instructions. Pleased to say it worked. Only problem I have had so far is that on one occasion it told me I was not rooted, when in fact I was. A reboot fixed that problem.

Looks like I have root, but it seems like after some time of the phone being on, it loses root access and I have to reboot in order to regain root access. Any ideas?

CF-Auto-Root

The first S6 Edge roots are available from the repository: http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ !
Note that the stock kernel currently has an issue preventing the device from going into "deep sleep" if a custom recovery is flashed (which is what this does). A fix for this issue can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60383471&postcount=49. This fix will also work if you replace the recovery with for example TWRP.

Same issue here. I've tried all the "Odin" tricks.. different cables, different PCs, latest drivers, several reboots, different Odin versions, etc.... All the same, stuck on "NAND Write Start". Hoping for a fix soon.
Yes the sm-g925t is on the list
From looking at the other threads, specifically the non-edge S6 auto root thread, everyone is in the same boat. We just need to wait for Chainfire to update. Like an idiot, I accepted the out-of-the-box OTA although others are saying they are having the same issue without the OTA update.

mine is bricked. i tried to root and it wont get passed the first screen. cant even access recovery. i cant even get the phone to turn off
Damn I bricked mine too. Used Odin 3.10.6, got a successful flash but it won't get past the booting screen, won't shut off, can only really access Download Mode. Which I've tried using different suggestions but still failed to get it to boot up or put into recovery to complete the root process.

How did you get it to be successful flash? I tried ODIN 3.10.6 with the available CF-Auto_root and continue to get stuck at NANO WRITE! Of course i accepted the OTA right out of box also.
Wonder why we have different results of "same task"

I didn't actually take the OTA, because I wanted to be sure that I would be able to root the phone for sure without needing to wait too long for an update to the Auto Root Utility that would work with the newer version.

nexus 6 oem unlock brick

OK so i was going to flash back to a factory rom from CYANOGEN, but got bricked and it says I need to check the OEM UNLOCK option in developer options. the problem is, no matter what I try when I reboot I ALWAYS end up at the screen pictured below.
Have tried Wugfresh have tried SDK
cant even boot into recovery
please someone tell me there is a way to save this phone...
you might be screwed if you dont have twrp installed. try this..
fastboot format cache
fastboot format userdata
try booting first thing after, if not then try flashing twrp.
Maybe some more information too, like what EXACTLY you were trying to do. How did you end up with a locked bootloader? If the advice given previously didn't work, you are most likely bricked.

OK, here's the assistance you're looking for:
Request an RMA from Google, Motorola, or whomever you bought it from. That is your only option.
In wugfresh click return to stock, then click preferences button on bottom make sure to check all 3 boxes to force flash, when finished reboot phone and you should be able to go into settings to check the unlock option.

yea, if you have twrp installed, its easy to get out of this situation. all you have to do is is format userdata and cache with fastboot(or use the toolkit). but without having twrp installed, i dont see a way out.

Issues with unrooting

I am trying to apply an update that was pushed to my Verizon Nexus 6. I was using Nexus Root Toolkit V2.0.5 developed by Wug, to do the unroot and re-lock the boot loader. It went fine no issues, have the correct build of android plugged into the toolkit. Rebooted, and I used root checker to verify that root is gone, and it is not, it is still rooted. I can unroot using supersu, and root checker confirms that root is gone. After locking the bootloader, I go and try to apply the update and it still fails. I am able to restart the phone and use it, but I do not understand what is going on with it. Anybody have any thoughts?

for the couple thousandth time it has been mentioned here, you can not apply an update if any stock files have been changed. with you having root at one point, your files have been changed. and to really unroot, you have to flash a factory image. otherwise, even tjough you unrooted, your files are still changed.

ok, boot into the bootloader, connwct via usb to your computer, the type fastboot devices. at that point, it should list your phone via a number. if it does, then its all connected right. then you can flash the factory image, but do not use the flash-all script, flash them all individually.
Ok thanks, Does it work the same if you do it through Wugs tool, clicking the flash stock + unroot button, and letting it run the scripts?

ill be honest.. its best to do it the first time manually. that way you learn to do things that can fix your phone in the future, plus tool kits can and fo mess up occasionally, which make things hard to fix. i tell everyone that they can use toolkits, but they wont learn anything and will remain clueless. if you already know what you are doing, then tool kits are fine
I concur. I have used "the" toolkit to see what happens. Have had multiple failures using toolkit and always had to revert to fastboot to fix. Might as well use fastboot up front. Saves a lot of time and headaches.

Yes the flash-all.bat can't break up the image. Has something to do with how it sees the partition. Have heard that fastboot in SDK 23+ has fixed this problem. Have not confirmed as I do each individually anyway depending on what I want to do.
---------- Post added at 12:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 PM ----------
Only way you're gonna possibly brick is flash wrong image to wrong partition. Not sure that even that can be corrected with fastboot as long as the one you bork isn't the bootloader.

PLEASE HELP!!!! Nexus 6 with LOCKED boot loader stuck in BOOTLOOP with stock recovery

so here is what happened, i was rooted with an unlocked boot loader running chroma rom. i then tried to unroot my device to return completely back to stock. After the process was done, i formatted and wiped everything then did a reboot. when android started up chroma rom was still on there and i can't access developer settings to unlock my boot loader to flash stock image. so now i am stuck with a locked boot loader and a bootloop device. i have tried adb sideload and got back 2 errors that the footer is wrong and the signature. i don't know what to do now. so Please Help! thank you in advance.
another thing i should add, i only have access to stock recovery

Here is the option. Direct from Wug's FAQ. "If you device is bootlooping or can’t boot up, use “Flash Stock + Unroot” with the “Soft-Bricked/Bootloop” option and follow the onscreen instructions for manually booting your device into bootloader mode and restoring your device."
Can't use flash stock option without an unlocked bootloader.

BTW, from what I see he can probably break it down and sell the parts on ebay then get close to a new one for $350.

We don't know but this sucker likes to bootloop. Never relock the device till after it boots and running. Concerning relocking non-stock have seen it bork TWRP and kernel.

because many people dont read and educate themselves beforehand.
I don't understand why people are re-locking their boot loader. Unless you are returning the device, what is the purpose of re-locking it? I don't get, in this particular thread, why or how the boot loader got locked?

And that is a key question.
I was trying to get ready to turn in my nexus 6 and so I flashed a stock rom (apparently minus the recovery) and relocked my device. I now have twrp but stock 5.1 installed. twrp boots okay but internal storage is 0mb and it appears unable to format partitions. any ideas on a resolution? very comfortable with fastboot (bootloader loads normally) but can't seem to get anything working otherwise.
