Custom binary blocked by reactivation lock

Droid9684 · Jun 6, 2014

I accidentally forgot to uncheck the reactivation lock before i went into my custom recovery. I cant reboot my developers device now and am stuck. "Custom binary blocked by reactivation lock" I don't have access to Odin as I have Mac. Already tried going into download mode and restarting phone. Any options?

Stock backup of my device was thru custom recovery TWRP

Access a PC, d/l Oden3_v3.09 and the SM-G900V tar and rebuild

Sucks, being surrounded by fruit.

you might try to go into stock recovery, (home/volume up/power) and select wipe data/factory rest.

What are you referring to exactly when you said"Sucks, being surrounded by fruit." Ok well it was a pain in the ass to get to use a friends PC just to use odin to obtain root and flash. JODIN is saying on my mac that PIT is corrupt when it tries to make a file! It did this before. I have no idea why! I really wish i remembered to uncheck that damn samsung security setting before i went into recovery to do a recent backup! Crap! Maybe i can go out and rent a computer or something for now? I need to get this done in short time.

Well i tried installing odin on my folks computer but it wont install. All that happens is it installs an installer and wont open the appliction. Now what?

It seems the original Odin3 V3.09 was corrupted? Or so it seems. Use this one here. Sorry...

Well i cant figure this out and i'm getting frustrated.I was able to borrow my folks computer and i downloaded all files needed. I have the zip files loaded and unloaded and when i go into PDA to place the file nothing shows up. Phones connected successfully. I'll have to try another day possibly. People give me lots of crap when i need to borrow a PC.

It says COM in blue but nothing in the above boxes. I was able to download the samsung drivers successfully.

Auto boot and ftime reset are checked.

I can tell you that I was able to odin the stock VZW tar to pass. My phone works fine, so the tar is good. But no root. I would think this would restore your phone, if you can get into download mode. :fingers-crossed:

Yes well obviously i was in download mode. :good: I actually was trying to also flash a rescue package as well in ODIN. That also won't work. It's pre rooted stock rom. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2747156

Ok that didn't help at all.... yes there's problems but not with phone but rather odin with the tar and zip files not showing up in PDA.

Here's what i'm talking about the tar file I go to put in PDA but after trying to open it it's just blank space and ODIN reads nothing. I think it might be because I have to use 7zip to unpack ODIN File. If that doesn't work then i'm not sure what will...

I use peazip but 7zip is used by many. Try the Odin 3.07. I believe that is what that old post recommended.
