[Galaxy A6+] OEM Unlock option is gone after turning it on. - Samsung Galaxy A6 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I had my Galaxy A6+ (A605F) 3 months ago then I decided to root it. I had the OEM unlock button. I turned it on and device asked for a factory reset and I let it do.
The phone rebooted and everything was reset (I already know that it will happen so I'm ok with resetting).
I waited again for the OEM unlock option to show up but it didn't show after around 170h uptime.
The current recovery values are:
FRP lock : off
OEM lock : off
RMM state : prenormal
And of course it didn't accept flashing twrp because of the pre-normal thing.
My question is, what should I do now? Or this means it's never going to be rooted?
Thanks in advance.

You'll have to wait seven days for the OEM option to return them u can try again

Sorry for the very late reply, but you were right, it actually appeared again and it's unlocked now.
I'm now on oreo but I didn't root yet because the lockscreen problem.
Thank you so much.

If your oem is gone you have to wait 7 days or 168 hrs for it to appear again.
Once you get oem back follow the post by BlackMesa123 that removes rlc apk and changes the rmm in build.prop and do it every time you flash a Rom.

If you have sm-n950f (single sim) or sm-n950f/ ds (duel sim) (Both Exynos SOCs.)
Then it will come after 7 days.
Here read this thread.

if you flashed stock or wiped to factory defaults since, then the counter might also have reset each time. wait 7 days without flashing or reseting your phone.
in the mean time read up on the various OEM unlock and bootloader v3 threads. it will stop you from making bad choices since your phone will inevitably go back to 'jail' and you will know what to expect/do.
It's been 8 days but I still have not done anything yet. is there any chance he will not come?

Flash stock firmware with latest Odin in download mode. That should get you back up and running. OEM toggle switch should re-appear within 7 days (unless the date change trick works for you). The OEM unlock thread has more background, and there is a sticky thread here for the date workaround.
I have flashed all again and its working. Weird for me is about thso OEM issue - ive never had one xd even after flash srock firmware i could switch oem unlock. Curious what's depends from

Usually that error happens when you are not on stock (rooted with twrp, etc.) and hit the OEM toggle...it sees you have modified your phone in an unauthorized way and puts you in 'jail'.
I toggled it by myself i didnt know that it should be always on...
OEM issue - what is the problem. I have heard that the problem os thatbon some phones therenis no such options .... curious why

Snapdragon bootloaders are locked so OEM unlock toggle isn't really relevant there. For Exynos there is a long thread here with lots of info. Essentially it can take 7 days to appear if you don't see it at first boot or if you end up in jail.

Any Chance?

Hey, im coming from my old s7. So does WE have any Chance to get bootloader unlocked?
Got the phone from Three Ireland and the bootloader was unlocked, just switched the toggle in developer options and all good, just waiting for some progress with root and roms but nothing really happening here.

Yep, I get the same on my P30 Pro, type in pin and I get a popup saying: "Enable OEM unlock, Device protection features will no longer work on this device" then an "enable" and a "Cancel" button.. - not hit the enable button as yet tho, as I dunno what the "protection features" they are talking about do...
I'm not sure if toggling the oem switch actually unlocks the bootloader. Pretty sure that's half the process, but a unlock key still needs to be entered through adb/fastboot
That doesn't unlock anything. It just gives you the possibility to do so (in general, there is no solution for p30 atm)
Bootloader unlock would format every data of your phone for example, everything

Actually, this option only allows you to unlock the bootloader, without the code, you still cannot unlock it.

Skip Update?

I just got a new Mi A2 and, thanks to Amazon, it came on a very old version of Android.
I have done Original version -> November OTA -> March OTA (Pie) and now trying to do April. However, the phone boot loops every time it tries to install it. If I leave it for 20 minutes or so unpowered it will finally restart and report 'Couldn't Update'
I have enabled OEM unlock, but not done the actual unlock in fastboot - could this be the cause? Is there a way to manually skip April too and go straight to June?
Thanks for any help.
Did have the same problem after unlocking bootloader it finished the update , was strange as hell so I stay unlocked for any case.

So do a full unlock before trying again? At the moment I don't have the boot loader unlocked, I've just enabled the OEM unlock so I could unlock in case needed.
I never wait so long always do the 3button restart and see what's going on but here I did the full unlock and then it worked. On my wife's pink a2 all went fine no unlock needed so it's strange.
Sigh. I thought all this nonsense wouldn't be needed on an Android One phone.
Will give it a week or so and then go down the full unlock and re-set up route.
FFS found the solution on one of the other myriad boot loop threads - take the sim cards out before restarting.
Good for u mine was without sim.
It's still flaky. Have to power it on manually two or three times after restart - it doesn't boot loop, it just doesn't boot.

N950f rmm prenormal and kg state: Checking fix????

Hello does any one know a fix for this? I have an RMM State of Prenormal and a KG State Checking
My Note 8 N950F came OEM Lock: OFF and FRP: OFF and I had the bootloader unlocked immediately the only issue is this annoying RMM state. Ive tried everything. Chimera Unlock who said I had to downgrade my firmware to pre Jan 2019 for their unlock to work . I waited 8 days of uptime with my sim card installed and no reboots and the prenormal state was still there. I tried the date change trick. I even tried to downgrade to oreo, my bootloader version is too high to downgrade. This is crazy and Samsung has literally given me trust issues because of this. I just want to install TWRP and go on my merry way but Odin and this RMM bs won't let me

I have the same problem note 8 SM-N950F and can't find an answer anywhere, I've looked for weeks now with no luck at all.
During the waiting period, the device can not be turned off or disconnected from the internet.
