anyhows just for other people if they reading this..

the reason he was/is having problems is due to the fact this s7active was on bootloader 4 as he pointed out in one of his earlier posts ..
AP SWER: is RP SWREV: B4 (1, 1, 1, 1, 1) K2 S3
that B4 is bootlooder 4..
ALSO known/identified by the 9th character, thus ...
G891AUCU3ARD1
is only going to work on bootloader 3 devices ..


ALL the solutions posted where based on bootloader 2, and 3 .. and therefore the reason for the errors ..
i expect now there are released files for bootloader 4, alls good

Well, here is the simple solution for G891A U4/BIT4/REV4 FRP without PC/Box/boot/Combination

This didn't work for me in U4 Oreo. Add call is disabled.

You mean in SM-G891A U4 8.0.0 ??? Then you have new firmware patch installed. However, you could install U4 8.0.0 and older patch firmware with Odin and then bypass with "add call" trick. It will work 100%

It is more easy than to flash whole combination firmware and then stock firmware.

My phone had : G891AUCS4CRJ1
Security patch level: October 1, 2018

You can download this exact firmware and flash on your U4 8.0.0.

hello, what firmware and binary you have installed on your phone to give you error in the combination binary 5 flash for g981a?

Unfortunately you have a firmware of binary 6 it is normal that if you flash the combination of binary 5 for g981a during the flash give you an error, having a binary 6 firmware you cannot install a combination of binary 5 you cannot install n combination or firmware with binary lower than what you have on your phone, having boot boot locked.

At the moment a combination of binary 6 for g981a does not exist and has not yet been released.

You can try using this method to reset frp to g981a, since the phone has a binary 6 firmware with security patch august 2019

It has NOTHING to do with LOCK or UNLOCK phone. You just have to use NON-ACTIVE and PIN LOCKED SIM card. Than Enter Pin Code will appear and you can follow the rest video to bypass your phone.
