Not that silly
I've flashed plenty of recoverys/roms/kernel's on my old S3. But never ran into this error before.
Settings security.. Reactivation lock untick...?

Did you just odin phils recovery... Or root first?

You shouldn't need to root before installing a custom recovery. I never have done on Samsung devices.
Is this a joke? I thought custom recovery was not possible on the S5.
Maybe my statement is only true for Vz.
What carrier are you on?

Hi there.
I'm still fairly new to this whole android world (flashing, rooting,...), so I already apologize in advance for any odd questions from my side, or should any of them sound a bit silly So I was wondering the following: I had Philz Touch Recovery on my previous phone (I9300), and had no issues with it or whatsoever. I've been flashing the Lollipop updated successfully and keeping my device up to date. Which was also the reason why I decided to go with the same recovery on my newer phone model (SM-G900F), which I acquired a couple of days ago. I've done 2 backups already (the so called "nandroid" backup and the backup of the first rom version I flashed).
However...when I was checking out the folder files on my SD card later on I realized that the date stated on those folders is not correct To give an example...my latest backup folders got named "2014-01-26.09.06.40_cm_klte-userdebug_5.1.1_LMY48W" So I was now wondering: does the date on those folders have anything to do here, also can I come across any issue while trying to restore to those backups later on (in case anything goes wrong in any of the future releases)? Due to the wrong stated date on those folders I mean...
Thanks in advance.

Hi all. I just got a second hand SM-G00F a few days ago. I succesfully rooted it, installed the XtreStoLite INTL 2.2 rom it as per the installation guide in that thread. I was able to get into TWRP as normal.
However, today I saw that there was an update in the rom thread (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63522473&postcount=13226) with links to a 2.3 version, updated bootloader and modem files. After flashing the updated bootloader file with ODIN, i can no longer access TWRP (reactivation lock). I only flashed the bootloader/modem file, not the 2.3 rom. All via ODIN.
I then rebooted into download mode, and flashed the BL and modem files that was in the 2.2 thread again and the phone booted normally. But still, I can' t go into recovery anymore. Flashing anything besides bl or modem via odin seems to be impossible... I always get
On the phone screen in download mode, it says reactivation lock: on, know warranty void 0x1. After trying to flash, the line "secure check fail: recovery" is added.
From reading around, I gather the problem could well be with the previous owner having enabled the samsung reactivation lock function. But how can I untick this function since i can't find it in the current rom? And because of the nand write errors, I can't seem to flash to stock rom at the moment. Would that be a problem flashing a PIT file might fix? I've been trying and looking around for sollutions, but I can't seem to find what to do now...

What about if this happens and I'm in a bootloop?
So if I'm looping when I boot up, and obviously can't get to the settings in order to enable USB debugging, how can I "untick" it from stock recovery or Odin mode? ADB will not recognize the device, and I can't flash any custom recovery because of the auth fail secuirty check message. I know it's got to be Knox because in download mode it says "Reactivation Lock(KK)n." It's Android system recovery <3e> LRX21T.G900PVPU3OK4. I have Ubuntu-Mate 15.10, and Windows 10 dual boot operating systems, so any help from the command line or terminal commands/shell commands would be loads of help if anyone out there could help me out. I'm totally fine with resetting the device completely, not just factory wipe/reset, but the big one that deletes all the partitions and everything if it'll do the trick. I can reflash the firmware at that point from Odin or Heimdall, if I could just get past the reactivation lock.
-Thanks in advance-

Can you get download mode. If so flash first stock rom for your device/carrier... Then turn off in settings.. I've seen issue/mistake like this before ...there's a few guides ...search on Google. For more ....So if I'm looping when I boot up, and obviously can't get to the settings in order to enable USB debugging, how can I "untick" it from stock recovery or Odin mode?
