Blacklisted SM-G920A unlock procedure - GSM-Forum

Stunman112 · 05-11-2016, 22:50

Can anybody tell me how to go about unlocking this device? Do i first need to reset the EFS or can i go to the unlock newQC directly from the Samsung tab?

I ve seen others perform tasks on this device so i know it works. Would i need to write a cert before unlock?

I found out i needed ROOT first. I got root but its "unsupported" SU binary's weren't installed. I used this approach to obtain so called "root" : Root - Kernel Root Android 5.1.1 Galaxy S6 SM-G920A (AT&T) | Samsung Full Firmware | SamFirm.NET Global

NewQc unlock is only for qualcomm phones and doesn't require root.
G920a is not qualcomm it's exynos.
Steps to repair imei are
1. Reset Efs using exynos Efs reset option under Samsung tab
2. Repair drk using uart
3. Write cert using either uart or usb.
Done

Note: writing certificate unlocks phone automatically.
