  4. Hi, I followed the directions, but Odin said FAIL!
    My phone is SM930T, Android version 6.0.1
    I tried just the AP, and it failed. Then I tried all the files, and still failed. My note 7 is restricted by Samsung and T-Mobile; limiting me to 60% battery life and pop-up messages to return the phone. Can I get it downgraded successfully somehow?

  5. my S7 seem to be bricked due to the latest update. If I flash the stock ROM, does it force a factory reset and I lose all the data? I want to use Odin to flash an older copy of the ROM in and see if I can recover anything

  7. Hi,
    I flashed my SM-J320H with odin using the firmware of Lollipop and it was successful. Yet, the phone requires the google account that was synchronized with the phone which I don’t know anymore. If I flash phone with marshmallow 6.0.1 firmware, is it possible it will remove the google account automatically and switch off FRP lock on my device? how do I resolve this issue so the phone can boot normally? Pls help.
