Hold Vol+ + Vol- +Power (do not hold Home!)

4. Unfreeze mode:
Hold Vol- + Power only!

Optionally you can try inserting a 300k resistor jig/cable to force it into download mode while doing the unfreeze mode.

And the final super secret mode:
Stick your tongue into the charging port and hold the Power button for up to an hour, then pull your tongue out and let the Power button go. lmao!
This one reminds of cotton swab post by obliviousmnd, so please don't do this. lol
ill try this brother thanks...

I have successfully unlocked the Binary 5 G930P build using the combination file posted in earlier posts. But does anyone have a binary 5 unlocked firmware (G930U)?

It's known to shut down due to a defective battery.
Not that it's not charged, but actually defective, try replacing it.

*** DO NOT exit recovery!! ***
-reboot to bootloader (immediately to bootloader nothing else between or you have to start over)

UPDATE #1
Found a solution for flashing the combi firmware without having to flash back to stock IF you get a boot-loop on the initial combi flash.
So instead of having to flash back to stock, wipe, reboot directly to bootloader from recovery, you can simply flash the combi again, but this time with the following options selected in the patched Odin:

Auto-Reboot - ON
Re-Partition - ON
F.Reset Time - ON
Nana Erase All - ON
Also, extract the PIT file from the combi and include it in the PIT tab.

If done properly it should boot up fine, without having to go through the hassle of flashing back to stock first.
Tested it a few times and it seems to be working.


UPDATE #2
Some of you may have heard about a new security coming soon (actually it's here with the 2018 updates) called RMM.
It's basically a souped up version of FRP, but with a twist. Where before you could flash a combi/eng-boot, no longer, due to the strict signature checking implemented by RMM.

Looks like it will be restricting Odin flashing with only the signed firmware for that particular model, and it will also kill the Prince Comsey patched Odin method. For example, won't be able to flash G950U with G950U1 firmware soon, and probably even eng-boots. What's even worse is that if you even TRY to flash with the wrong version it will brick the phone permanently (for at least 7-days) unless flashed back to signed stock.

Problem is, you can't do anything if FRP is on, won't even let you flash eng-boot, only signed stock.
A possible solution to disable the RMM lock, but only IF it's NOT already turned ON the phone (for protection against future updates).
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...5&postcount=22

Supposedly the RMM lock expires after 7 days of the phone being turned ON and never turned off, basically a 7 day phone jail. Boooo!!
Fun times ahead guys, especially for those who are careless and just flash away without disabling RMM first.
So, get ready to go to 7-day JAILs!! lol
Mark my words

You can see if RMM is enabled on the new update by checking for the presence of this folder "/system/priv-app/Rlc".
If possible turn on OEM-Unlock in Developer's Menu, and flash only original stock update made for your device, then immediately follow that with this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...5&postcount=22
After that you should be fine, but if by any chance you lock yourself out, just wait 7 days with the phone constantly turned on (do not power off or restart!), and the RMM should turn itself off temporarily then do the solution as posted above.
