How to Completely Remove FRP on All Samsung Snapdragon Processor Mobile Phones? (100% Success)

"I was given a Galaxy S23 on OneUI 6.1 to unlock, the original User of the device doesn't know the Google Account or phone unlock pin. I've tried several tools, neither of them worked. I tried flashing TWRP to get ADB access, but that didn't work either. How can I bypass the FRP Lock, I know, that I just have to reset it over the settings App to remove FRP, but i can't get into there. "

Factory Reset Protection (FRP) is a security feature built into Android devices to prevent unauthorized access after a factory reset. If you reset your Samsung device without first removing the linked Google account, you will be locked out and asked to verify the original credentials. This can be a major inconvenience, especially if you've forgotten your Google account details.

Fortunately, with Dr.Fone – Screen Unlock (Android), you can bypass the FRP lock on Samsung phones with Qualcomm Snapdragon processors (Android 11-15) easily. This guide will walk you through the entire process, ensuring a smooth and successful FRP removal.

Part 1: What is FRP Lock on Samsung Phones With Snapdragon Processor?

1.1 Understanding FRP Lock

FRP is designed to protect your device from theft by ensuring that only the original owner can access it after a reset. Once FRP is triggered, you must enter the previously used Google account credentials to proceed with setup.

1.2 Why Are Special Methods Needed for Snapdragon Devices?

Samsung devices with Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets have unique security settings. Many standard FRP bypass methods don’t work on these models. That’s why specialized tools like Dr.Fone are necessary to effectively remove the FRP lock.

Part 2: What is the Samsung EDL Engineering Cable and How Does It Help in FRP Unlocking?

2.1 What is the Samsung EDL Engineering Cable?

The Samsung EDL Engineering Cable is a specialized tool used for connecting Samsung devices to a computer in Emergency Download Mode (EDL). This mode allows users to flash firmware, repair bricked devices, and, in this case, bypass the FRP lock on Samsung devices.

  • EDL Mode is primarily used for Qualcomm-based devices. This mode gives you deeper access to your device’s firmware, which is required to bypass the FRP lock.
  • The EDL cable essentially acts as a bridge between your Samsung phone and the PC, enabling the software to communicate with your device at a deeper level than what is available in normal recovery or bootloader modes.

2.2 How Does the Samsung EDL Engineering Cable Help in FRP Unlocking?

By connecting your device in EDL mode using the EDL engineering cable, Dr.Fone can directly communicate with the device’s firmware and bypass the FRP lock. This is particularly useful when:

  • The traditional FRP bypass methods fail.
  • Your device is stuck in a boot loop due to FRP lock.
  • You need to flash new firmware onto your device without accessing the normal recovery menu.

This EDL cable is essential for Samsung Snapdragon devices, as it allows the software to initiate a bypass process for FRP unlocking, ensuring a seamless operation without risk of bricking the device.

Part 3: How to Remove FRP on Samsung Phones With Snapdragon Processor Using an EDL Cable?

The Qualcomm-based Samsung solution supports unlocking Samsung S23, S24, and other Qualcomm-based models without being limited by Android system settings. However, Samsung EDL engineering cables are required to complete the unlocking process.

Supported Devices: Supports unlocking for various Samsung models, including A01, A02s, A42 5G, A52 5G, A71, M02s, S21, S22, S23, S24, Galaxy Z Fold 7 5G and more with Snapdragon processors. See the full list >>

Step 6Put Your Samsung Device into Specific Mode

Now, we need to put your Samsung phone into the correct mode to proceed with FRP removal.

  • First, power off your Samsung phone. Plug the EDL cable into the computer, but do not connect your Samsung phone yet.
  • Simultaneously press and hold the Volume Up, Volume Down, and EDL button without releasing, then insert the EDL engineering cable.
  • Release the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons, and repeat the following operation about 15 times: press the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons simultaneously, then quickly release them. (Please keep holding the EDL button throughout this process.)
  • Once finished, release the EDL button.

Step 7Select and Confirm Your Device Model

After your device is in the correct mode, choose your device model from the list in Dr.Fone (e.g., Samsung S24 Ultra [SM-S928U]). Click Next to allow Dr.Fone to detect your device and apply the necessary FRP unlocking method.

Note: If you're unsure about your device model or it isn’t listed, select any of the options to continue.
