Custom binary blocked by frp lock 2019

[Casper Young]

This difficulty is noted specifically on the Galaxy Tab A6 10.1 (SM-T580 and the SM-T585)
After searching through XDA Forums for a solution, I, along with others are at a loss. This Custom binary blocked by frp lock is rather difficult and exibits 4 different ways of showing itself. All but one has basically the same symptoms, which are:
1. Startup goes to bootloop. One version displays Custom binary blocked by frp lock on the Logo Screen.
2. Download Mode is accessible, but not usable. Not accepting of official stock firmware. Also Custom binary blocked by frp lock shown here in another version.
3. Recovery mode inaccessable. Redirects to a screen similar to Download Mode. In upper left, Custom binary blocked by frp lock is displayed. (This one was my device. I solved issue by flashing "Binary 4 FRP Unlock" via Odin. Others could not solve issue).
4. Same symptoms as 1 and 2. However Recovery mode was accessable, not usable. Custom binary blocked by frp lock also present.

I've tried everything I can find on it. Downgrade, flash Binaries 3 and Binaries 4. Flash TWRP, Flash stock firmware. OEM Unlock, 3 files, 4 files, repair files. Nothing seems to work.
Does anyone familiar with this have any good ideas that I haven't used or thought of? This ones got me baffled!

Solution for some, not all.

This difficulty is noted specifically on the Galaxy Tab A6 10.1 (SM-T580 and the SM-T585)
However I'm beginning to hear of it on other varients of the Tab A.

Here's the files most people that have a Galaxy Tab A SM-T580 or SM-T585. will need'

SM-T580 Binary 4 FRP Unlock
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1iXrZR2E7m6Ai5InAw8u3lzeLhb3ThRo5

SM-T580 U4 Binaries (this is a two pack. Flash 1 then flash 2 in the AP section)

For anyone that has symptoms 1,2 and 3. either one of the files I put here may work. After that you can flash the official firmware to your device. Flashing the binary files often reset the device. I have the 4 file for the T580 if anyone needs it.

I realize this is a bit old but I am at a loss with a t580.. I think I am confused at this point..I have odin and have replaced the .ini file with one you have listed. what happens next? I think I need a bit more instructions.. the other two files give a bad binary code...also you mention the 4 file for the t580.. nothing I find has 4 files.. only 3 ... no CP file. Thanks for any info..

It may seem old but people are still having this difficulty and I seem to be the only one who bothers to investigate as well as try to help.
Tablets normally do not use the CP file which is for phone operations.
Here's my copy of the current 4file software. You'll notice it has two CSC files one labled HOME. You put one of in the CSC section of Odin3 when flashing. Which one depends on if you want to keep your application data or not. If you wish to keep your application data use the one labled "HOME"

Okay so you're stuck in some kind of Custom Binary FRP lock, can you define which of the 4 scenarios you are having?
Slightly of track, it seems this issue may come up with other and newer devices, so I'll tell you where the binary identifier of your device can be found. Our device currently has the firmware listed as T580UEU4CSC1. The U4 is the binary level of the bootloader I don't know what the U is for but the 4 represents the binary structure that has to be matched. Whatever binary number that may change to, it will always be in the same place.

The following two files are flashed one at a time. They are labeled somewhat use the one with a 1 first. Place it in the AP section on Odin3 and flash. You can either uncheck the reboot option or be prepared to go to download mode while the device reboots. by holding Power+Volume Down+ Home Button. Once back in Download mode place the second file in the AP section and flash. Be aware this method was used on another device than mine. It is one that came up during research and worked for someone I was assisting after the first method failed.

I can't currently locate my Combination or Repair files. It may be the first link I sent you. They should be listed with BL, AP and the two CSC files you only use one of. They go in their respective spaces and there isn't a CP file.

The file you mentioned as ini was not that when I first uploaded it and has somehow changed. It was a patched Odin3 that worked better for this issue so it looks like I have two files to locate in my vast file system that I'll put up here by tomorrow. The patched Odin3 and the U4 Binary Unlock. Meanwhile...

This is the file that got me out of Custom Binary FRP Lock. Place it in the AP section of Odin3 and flash. Right after that, reboot to Download Mode and flash in the 4 file.

Hopefully that works for you.

Hi, thanks for your post. Does it work also for the T585? It's exactly T585XXU2BQK5

The method works but the files here will not work for you because your device is using a binary 2. Although the T580 and the T585 are essentialy the same device yours can access the network and uses the CP file. I'll save you some time with this link. https://combinationfirmware.com/downloads/t585xxu2apl1/

Hi, thanks for the link but there is now "Download" button except for other versions like T585XXU2ARC2 and T585XXU2AQC1 but no download button for T585XXU2APL1

 

[cnicely]

Thank you

Thank you for the reply. I will work on this early next week. Hopefully I can follow everything..from what I read I think I understand a bit more than I did. Thank you again for the effort you put in to help out those of us who are not "into" this on a regular basis.

 

[cnicely]

Thank you

WHOHOO!!! I did it...not sure what I did but I did it. I tried both unlock files and the combination put me in factory binary mode.. I could check and test everything but didn't know what else to do.. If I remember correctly I then did the 4 files (again) and when it rebooted it came up without the FRP. but It appears to be running fine. Thanks to Casper Young for the time taken to help out...can't express enough my appreciation for the time and effort you gave.

Are you still having difficulties? Sorry I didn't respond sooner, I was on vacation. Let me know if you still need assisstance.

Thank Casper for this interesting post.

Do I understand you correctly, that this solution only helps to recover from a FRP lock situation and flash back the original firmware, but does not allow you to install a custom rom on the device?

Maybe you do, maybe you don't. You would have to clarify what type of FRP you are experiencing. There are two types. The most commonly known FRP situation has to do with the Google Account Sign in. This is the one where the device can somewhat be accessed but only goes as far as the Google sign in page and you're stuck there because you don't have the proper password to get past it and into the device to use it.
No, this is not that kind of FRP!
This one has to do with when someone roots and/or flashes a corrupt or bad file into their Android and overloads the binaries (the operating system) and you can get stuck at various places but cannot use the device, flash a custom Rom or the Official software into the device and therefore it's rendered useless for the time being. It does not let you get to the sign in page. It does not let you use Recovery. It only seems to bootloop then shut down or stay on or locked on that screen. It does not seem to let you use Odin3 to flash files to return it to normal. And you'll get a red letter notice at the top of the screen saying "Custom Binaries Blocked by FRP Lock.".
Is that discriptive enough to answer your question?

 

[Bass3rr]

Thanks for your reply Casper.

I was experiencing the second type (red letter notice).

After an earlier failed attempt and reading on this forum, I was aware of the requirement to delete the Google account prior to flashing. After ODIN flashing TWRP, custom Rom and no verity, i used my own Google account for testing . Everything seemed to work just fine. After I deleted my own Google account and installed my daughter's, I got the FRP lock upon the next reboot.

Am I still doing something wrong?

Hello, i have a T-585 in my hands, that has no recovery, no nothing. The only way i can boot up device is in Download mode, and in a blank blue screen ( i guess it is the same download mode, but without any text on screen, the background color is the same though). The problem is, i can't flash any rom on it, even stock rom, i get an error everytime. Newest rom won't flash through Odin (tried different versions), gives me error, if i try older rom, i get an error, it seems i need binary 6 to flash something. It has a FRP lock too. Don't really know what to do. If anyone has any ideas how to fix this, please help. I have been searching an trying to fix this 5 nights in a row, but no luck and no success.

With the exception of the words written in red letters it sounds like you may have come to the right place. Well let's find out if you're somehow in Binary FRP Lock. Did you recently try to flash in a cutom ROM or Root firmware? As far as I'm aware the T580 and the T585 can use the same files but it's been a while and I'd have to check. Here's what it sounds like you're dealing with. Are you being redirected to a blue screen with nothing on it? Now that's odd because on mine I tried to go to Recovery Mode and got redirected to the Download mode screen which is light blue, however, mine had the words "Custom Binaries Blocked by FRP Lock" You not having it there is a first that I've heard. But so far I've noticed 5 or 6 different versions of this and only half have managed to correct the matter. Let's see. First your going to need the Odin3.13B Patched Downlader and let me see if I can find the files you may need, or at least lead you to them.
Odin3.13.1B,
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1YCiv190uj7Cu_Yu_2onmYe3kbaDduhbl
The current firmware for the T585 should be,
Build No. T585XXU6CSK1
So yes this would indicate your device is running the U6 Binaries. Here's a combination file you should be able to use.

And then flash in the official stock firmware.

Hello, i've been away for a few days, thank you for the reply, i'll try to use files that You put out tomorow, and give You an update. If this works, You're a magician.

I didn't try to Root or flash custom rom on this tablet. A friend gave it to me because it had a cracked screen, so i could change it. Also it was left for sometime and wasn't used, so was completely discharged. I changed the screen and charged it, but it wouldn't boot up, so i thought it maybe had failed to update or something, tried to flash a Stock rom, but it wouldn't flash through Odin. Older ones give the binary error so i need a U6, tried different of those, but still no luck. At the end I even thought maybe that there may be some physical damage ( friends kid steped on it, that's how the screen got cracked), but doesn't look like it.

I have a minor problem downloading frp unlock. Google doesn't let me download it. Sorry, you can't view or download this file at this time. I guess i have to wait some time....

Ok, so i managed to download the zip file from GDrive, but there is a password on the archive. I can't extract files from the archive, it has a password.

Found the password under some Youtube video. Tried to flash the Combination with Odin, it failed. Here's the log from Odin.

Tried adding a PIT file while flashing too, but i had the same result.

Are you certain that the firmware you are trying to flash is for your specific model number?

When you flash via Odin, disable the "re-partition" option in Odin.

Yes, i'm certain. What other firmware could I flash on sm-t585? The only other firmware i could think of flashing would be for t580, but i didn't try to do that. I tried older version roms for t585, but i got an error on tablet screen because of binary 6.

So the only rom i can try to flash is the newest with U6, at least i don't get an error on tablet screen, but Odin still fails.

When I flash i have enabled only auto reboot and F.reset time. Re-partition option is disabled.

I'm kind of lost at this point...

When you flash the U6 firmware and it fails, can you tell me if it gives you any specific errors ?

Can you tell me at which step in the flashing process it fails?

Have you tried using different versions of Odin?

Have you tried using a different PC?
