Hello everyone,

According to this post i did install note FE rom on my note 7 sm-n930F.

I did not have any problem flashing my first n930f.

Unfortunately, for my second install, i stupidly FORGOT to enable OEM unlock when flashing TWRP. :crying::crying:
I continued to install the ROM without problem but after the first reboot, the phone is blocked with the message "custom binary (recovery) blocked by frp lock"
I can boot in download mode (power + volume down + home) so i tried to flash a N930F stock rom but it fails with the message "check fail : device : 2 binary : 1"
(I think this is due to the fact that the stock rom is Android 6 and the device's rom is Android 7).
I tried Emergency Device Recovery from SmartSwitch PC without success : the device is not recognized by SmartSwitch.

I do not know what to do, can someone help me unbrick this phone ?
Thank you for your help.

I had the same problem (forgot to toggle oem lock) just flash the stock firmware for your device and it will boot (using odin) if you had a Google account it may ask you to sign in again if not just set up the device toggle the oem switch and flash twrp

The problem no flashable available stock rom for Korean models S/L/K. All failed in Odin. I had also a frp on , I can't flash any custom file.

Samsung don't allow downgrading, I need the latest ota with 15 % battery limitation.
hmmm, not sure I can be any help then, unless you can find the correct official rom for your phone then the only other option would be to take it to a Samsung service centre (although the phone should be recalled they might still be able to help you)

sorry I cant help any more

Hi guys, I've got a note 7 UK n930f with 0% battery update, I can still access download mode but not recovery or system boot. OEM unlock is not switched on so I can install twrp or root or anything like that. I've tried lots of different firmwares but they all fail , see pics...

Does anyone have any info on what I can do next?

Thanks
Kev
