SORRY ABOUT MY BAD ENGLISH

I am writing this tread because i recently unlocked the frp lock on my bricked ROOTED samsung galaxy note 5 (SM-N920C). I faced problem in flashing stock firmware as my phone lost drk. And hence i do research and it took about a month to find a solution. I am sharing it here.

Tools i used.
1. Samsung tool pro( cracked version)
2. SM-N920C Combination file:
http://shell.boxwares.com/default.aspx?DeviceModel=SM-N920C&Type=All#fh5co-table
Because i am on nougat firmware the Samsung tool pro doesn't work and at the same time i am not able to down grade the firmware due to frp lock. :rolleyes:
3. TWRP RECOVERY
https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxynote5.html

PROCEDURE:
1. Flash the combination file in download mode. And wait for the phone to boot. In my case the phone doesn't boot.
Then go to download mode agian and remove frp lock with samsung tool.
2. Flash TWRP.
3. Flash any custome rom from TWRP. :good:

simply go to download mode and flash official firmware
after phone starts go to settings>>developer mode>>enable oem unlock toggle
that's all no frp lock anymore. i wonder why it took you 1 month to figure this out.

Actually, when the phone is under the frp lock. Flashing stock firmware under odin will not work. At least it happened to my n920g. I used the emergency restore through the samsung smart switch app.

Sent from my SM-N920G using XDA-Developers Legacy app

If there is no drk in the phone it won't boot. I lost drk and not able to flash the stock rom.
And I lost drk but seems i checked the oem unlock on when rooted the phone and when I flash stock firmware the phone is booted without drk but I can flash twrp with odin and reroot the phone again

Yes its possible but in my case the oem unlock git disabled i dont know how its happened. After that i can't do anything other than the above procedures to make the device working.

I need help with this. I have tried several methods, 2 different ODIN versions, several different firmwares...I cannot get out of FRP lock. Please, Please help me.
Flashing firmwares will not undo FRP. No matter how many you flash. Solving the FRP problem lies elsewhere. And to another comment some FRp locked sammys will flash in odin under lock,Others will not. FRP lock is contained in a Partition in the device that is not touched by odin. If flashing orig stock firmware does not boot due to DRK problem then that has to be addressed first. I have not had a Note 5 in a while but This much I do know.
