S7 edge have an encrypted storage so you have to enable adb to delete lock screen

This can be done via two ways,

1- Via EMMC method (Safest and Secure Method)
2- Via Enabling ADB

This depends on you what you want to use. If you have any device witch allowed read and write EMMC specially Easy JTAG or ATF that i have tested, You can read user data from any Android Cellphone from direct EMMC even phone not in working condition. You can read detail in this post " How To Recover Pictures And Videos From Broken or Dead Smart Phone"

About ADB method you have a little risk for bricking device due to your mistake or due to hardware fault in your cellphone, Not a big risk but you must be very careful. I have not tested this before.

If you want to enable ADB you need to flash sboot.img file from combination firmware. if you have any Samsung Service tool you can skip any partition easily. If you have not you can rename .tar.md5 firmware file to .tar and then you can remove all other files and only leave sboot.img I have post on my blog about " How to fix *#06# not working on Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge SM-G925F" you can read more about how we can skip any part from Samsung firmware.

Regard!

Using the emmc method cant be done on encrypted devices like s7 and s7 edge you will need to format the memory first in order to read/write using emmc tool.
To enable adb you need to write boot.img not sboot.
You can get adb enabled boot.img from suitable compatible combination or by flashing eng boot file

Sir Thanks for information, Actually i have not much time to fight. I am not sure about encrypted memory because i have not tested on S7. but about ADB i have tested so many time We can get Usb debugging enabled by flashing sboot.img. But some people using ready made methods and some people selling ADB enabled boot files. In some cases with newest firmware this method will not work. To get adb access we need to flash complete combination firmware. I already told that i have not tested on S7. i have proof on similar phones like note 5 check above link for detail.

We can also use custom recovery to get adb access like picture below.




May be this method will not work on Samsung S7. because i have tested on note 5 Android 6.0.1 approx 1 year before during removing FRP via ADB on Note 5.
