SM9600 - Want to flash US firmware for Samsung Pay. Have questions - Samsung Galaxy S9 Questions & Answers

I've got a SM9600, purchased in US from BH Photo Video but it appears to be Spanish model and hence Samsung Pay wouldn't work.
Per some advice from random threads on internet, I factory reset it last night but that didn't change anything.
I now want to flash a US firmware but thought of checking with you guys first.
Two questions,
1. I noticed someone adviced not to flash a G960F/FD. Is it okay for G9600 to be flashed?
2. My biggest concern is of any side effect. Does flashing stock firmware change anything at all from stock behavior? I use the phone for work and the enrollment process is security sensitive. If there is any change in Knox status, device unlock status, rooting etc, I'll be out of work email access. It needs to be in stock condition
Also, if someone can guide me to the right firmware and guides, I'll appreciate it.

I have a us model if you wanna trade

Good day to everyone, well i have the same model but mine is for a customer it has been hard reset by the owner, but she does forget the google account on da phone, I was trying to flash it with a combination, it has given me an error frp is enabled not allowed to download non frp boot binary, i don't have a clue how to get ride of it.
Please help

It would be best to start a new post rather than tack this on to another.

Install a custom recovery. Like TWRP and than flash it with odin (download mode) then reboot to recovery and try to wipe everything with it.
Has anyone considered that the tablet may be stolen and we should not give ideas on how to recover it? Contact Samsung and with valid proof of purchase, they may help.
I think it's pretty likely the reactivation lock is activated which is precisely to prevent use of a stolen device. You can't do anything except contact the original owner. If it's legit they can disable the reactivation lock.

Dude, its called odin and download mode. So you flash it manually on your pc. Im not sure if the twrp recovery for T800 works on T805. Idk something will need to link you to that.
To enter download mode: power off device. Then hold power, home, vol down at the same time till a screen pops up. Click yes. Now your in download mode.
Open odin on your pc and connect your tab s to pc. Now click pda/ap in odin and select the tar recovery img you downloaded. Now click start and it should flash
you means that i can instal TWRP via odin just like to flash any firmware via odin
it's correct or not
sorry for disturbance but
very kind of both of ur response
thanks
if you have any of t800 then please tell me i'll try it also
thanks again

Yes you can install twrp like flashing firmware
@Tkkg1994 what twrp did you use for T805?
Actually "Tkkg1994"
i purchased this online and he did't mention this problem and when i got my parcel
i was just shocked
i think he's got this from any abroad country i'm from Pakistan
and many people told me online that it's DEMO device
The problem is
screen is locked with pass code and fingerprint scans
and when i trying to hard reset through recovery mood then error " MDM not allowed to reset ...!"
even i flashed it with odin but nothing happen
ahhhh
that is my problem man (
If the seller is not willing to give the unlock code, then there's a possibility that you are in receipt of stolen goods. Why not disclose the seller's name and link to site?
If you can't do this, there is a possibility your case is suspicious and I wouldn't advise others to help until you prove you have bought the device legitimately.
i know that sir you are not willing to help me
but here in my country there no check and balance
and no one is responsible after that means that purchasing through individually
i'm not talking about ebay , amazon , etc and these are not working in my country
any thing else you want my purchasing i'll provide info MAN
thanks for replying at least
As your purchase seems suspicious to me and Im pretty sure you can buy one brand new from many known sites for really cheap, amazon, etc. Where exactly did you buy this tablet from? Did you get it from a website, or a person in real life. New tablets dont come with fingerprint locks. If you can give me that, then Ill go on in assisting you.
You have this options:
1. Give it to some IT specialist, who maybe can find out whose tablet it is. (maybe send it to samsung)
2. Try to reach the seller.
3. Download the chagallwifi twrp from here: Download link
4. Go to download mode, select AP/PDA and flash the file. it is a .tar file.

Bought an FRP locked phone, need a serial number

I bought a phone that was FRP locked (I know, stupid me) and cannot access the serial number in order to emergency flash it with Smart Switch. Can someone please share their serial number with me so I can reflash it? If not, does anyone have any help? I am on G920PVPU3CPF4
Even doing a SmartSwitch (or Odin) flash won't remove the lock. No amount of flashing or resetting will remove it. The lock is stored in a hidden partition that is never touched by flashes and resets.
There are ways to remove the lock, but they're paid services offered by professionals

Flashing firmware can't fix an FRP lock - period.

Samsung phones can be frp unlocked by flashing firmware
I have personally FRP unlocked 2 Samsung phones by flashing the stock firmware usin Odin. A samsung j7 and a Samsung s5. I am getting so sick of people saying you can't do something when they have no clue. I have also flashed older versions into phones. That's how I rooted the s5 infact. When everyone was saying it was impossible to root at the time. As soon a I figure out how to use sp flash or something to flash different phones other than Samsung I will post saying how it worked not get on someone else's post and say it will never work it's impossible. The world of computers, phones and software is suppose to be open source not locked, hidden and full of viruses.

LOL.
The FRP data is stored in the "persistent" partition, which is never touched by a firmware flash, just like EFS and a bunch of other partitions.
So no.
That doesn't matter when the phone no longer has a persistent partition.

You obviously think you know something and I wont argue or dispute whether you do or dont but I know what I did for sure and what I did was flash stock firmware into those phones and they where no longer FRP locked afterwards. Also When the phone is bricked the phone is flashed blank. There are no patitions if flashed blank. Even when there is persistent data it's still data that is able to be edited with a custom rom which can be flashed after you flash stock rom. I dont know much but I know what I have done personally. My wife is still using her rooted j7 with note 8 D.N.A undetected that we bought f.r.p. locked.
So ya. Just because the internet says it's not possible doesn't mean it's not possible It just means you haven't tried hard enough to prove it yourself. Brick that phone if you have to. Build with that brick.

I own a business that does FRP removals and many other software-related services for mobile devices . I've done this for years - knowing this type of thing is literally my job.
The "persistent" partition is ALWAYS there - just like system, boot, recovery, and all the others. And I promise you, you can't remove an FRP lock by throwing it in Download mode and flashing some firmware with Odin, just like you can't remove it by booting to recovery mode and doing a factory reset. It's just not that easy.
Your going to need to go against the grain her a moment . Business or no business

I'm telling you. I'm not debating the facts. Im telling you what I did. Kinda like I did today with a Moto e4 play. I bypassed frp with flashing stock rom through Odin and then custom rom on the Samsung J7. Today I bypassed frp lock with twrp on the Moto e4 with the bootloader still saying OEM locked . I don't have a business in the phones field but I am a business man and sittin on 12 frp locked phones gets tire some. Thant goodness for broken digitizers and displays or I'd still have a bunch more of them. I wont dipute that you know what your doing because likely you do more so than I; we can can probably be certain. I'm just going to tell you the 100 percent fact. Upset wife as my motivating factor I successfully unlocked and rooted a j7 by flashing stock rom into it with Odin then custom reccovery then root then custom rom. The custom recovery I used by accident was for a different brand Jay 7 so mysecond time around I tried the "right" recovery and bricked it. Then again and again and again until Knox was tripped and that's when finally I took bl,ap cp, csc and flashed them in dl mode successfully from there I had Rob from simple cell unlock ( Thanks Rob your the best) remotely unlock the jay7 from T-Mobile after which I flashed the "wrong" proper twrp file giving me the ability to install custom note 8 dna rom into the system. Took two tries, first try I flashed no encrypt no verity but it custom rom frp locked. So second time I made sure I install the developer tools package with OEM unlock switch not able to be turned off then no encrypt no verity. It was a very long process since especially since it was only my second successful full root. Then vallet. Man becomes praised by wife. Man feels empowered man tears apart more phones makes mess, MAN HAPPY! WIFE HAPPY! LOL okay sorry about that part.

None the less each developer has a different approach that being said you frp unlocking phones? I have a Samsung s8 Moto e5 five LGs one zte n835 a couple of alcatels and a few more I couple reassemble real quick If I knew some one who had the abilitby to unlock especially if said amazing developer was teaching El padawan young Como. Yo tango mucho programs, apps and software. Just need the knowledge.

Thinking you can flash TWRP on a locked bootloader device shows me exactly what your knowledge level is when it comes to all of this. Future discussion would be futile, and no more responses from me will be had. I do wish you luck with your devices though
How frustrating you are.
Your business need some schooling it sounds like. Your business can't be doing good. Go ahead and Google the Moto e4 unlock method. You will see. You have to try before you say it won't work.

I just removed the frp lock on my s6 using a combination firmware (found here-https://firmware.gem-flash.com/index.php?a=downloads&b=folder&id=7410) which completely erased all partions and allowed me to access the settings menu to enable the OEM unlock setting. They are two different firmware there. I used the second one and it worked like a charm. Hope this helps

Do I need to root and install a new ROM to Remove FRP lock on Galaxy S20 Plus?

Hey all. I inherited a Galaxy S20 Plus (Canadian) from my uncle when he passed away. He had security enabled when I got it, and I thought I could just do a factory reset to wipe the phone and start using it.... It's been a while since I've done anything above using a phone LOL, so I wasn't aware of the new FRP lock stuff. So as you all probably know, I was hit with the 'unauthorized reset' message, and can't get passed it, because I have no clue what my uncle's PIN was, or if he even had a Google account to sync with it...
I've searched for many hours and couldn't find any credible info on bypassing the FRP, so thought I'd sign back up here for some help.
Is there a way to bypass the FRP and reset the phone so I can use it, or will I need to root it to clear the FRP? Either way, could someone please help out with some links on what I need to do to get this phone working for me?
Thanks in advance

Look for some instructions yourself on how to remove the FRP lock for your device.
checked that last night, but.... the d/l i had found said a possible virus or corrupted file.
not the correct area but also have a samsung a03s and needs either a soft or hard reset cuz when it turns on, goes to a blue screen with japanese or chinese letters saying unable to update software
