SOS: Galaxy S6 Edge Abnormal factory reset

Recommended Posts

My cousin got a new S6 Edge from abroad. He had given to someone for setting up. But somehow that guy forgot his gmail password. He had created new gmail ID and no recovery details like phone no, email etc were provided. He also activated Samsung account with this gmail ID.

Later, he formatted the phone through stock recovery. It deleted everything and restarted the phone. The phone is now locked and asking for samsung account details. As mentioned above, do not have access to this account. The phone is stuck at the attached image. Please help. On net I found someone stating that it be done with ODIN but not sure. I do not want to mess with it. He visited the Samsung Galallery in Mumbai (no idea which one) but they refused stating that since it is foreign handset they do not have any software for the same.

Pleas help me to start the phone. There is no data so no problem in resetting.

Finally got it done at Heera Panna in Mumbai. I don't know what the shop owner did but he removed the lock within few minutes and charged 500/-. My cousin had gone there and so it is not possible to say how it was done. But now phone is working fine without any issues.

I had tried Odin but it didn't work.

Mods, you can close the thread.

Is this method available to general public? My cousin paid 500 for that while this says only 104.... and if available then why samsung service center denied.
