authorized repair shops will have it. we had all sorts of tools to deal with apple stuff at the refurb shop i worked at years ago.

Appreciate all the advice. Saved me from wasting time on YouTube or wasting money on software that wasn't going to work.

Sounds to me like somebody who knows somebody who knows somebody who has access to Samsung proprietary software. Glad it’s working.

I took a gamble and brought it to the guy. Nothing to loose. He didn't ask for down-payment. It seams to be working OK. Im posting from it now. I'm going to use it for a while and I'll probably have him unlock another one. He said he had someone...

True. I’m not aware of anything that can do this besides in house Samsung software

Then you're SOL as that is Samsung's FRP lock similar to Apple's Activation/Find My lock. You would need their login credentials so that you could remove their Google account from it before resetting. I wouldn't pay to buy a program to do it as...

Thanks maybe I'll pay that shop the $60.

I followed the steps in link. After I did the factory reset on them it was still requesting password or the Google account it was setup on. I saw some software online like droidkit but I didn't want to buy it without asking advice on it first.

yes, factory reset them

I was on a demo job in work and the company threw out a bunch of Samsung tablets that where mounted on the door of each room. I grabbed a couple of each. SM-T220N Tab 8 (2021), sm-t350 Galaxy Tab A 8.0 and sm-t290 Galaxy tab A 8.0 (2019). Is...

nice! and if/when you do want to turn it into a gaming machine it just needs a gpu.

Appreciate the honest advice. I scrapped almost everything but the case and started over. My third build with this case. This was the first build https://hardforum.com/threads/help-with-500-00-build-for-web-surfing.1589007/ This is what i ended...

There will be no "24H1". Microsoft switched to an annual release schedule (once per year), with releases in the fall (hence the "H2", aka 2nd half of the year). September/October would be my guess, maybe November if there are some extra kinks...

No, any CPU without SSE4a/4.2 won't be able to boot up with Windows 11 24H2. But this scenario of a system that can't boot for that reason wouldn't occur in practice. Systems with unsupported CPUs won't be offered the 24H2 update. You have to...

Most likely, someone who is running on unsupported hardware (and without SSE4a/4.2) will never be offered 24H2. If it somehow did, it would just fail and roll-back. There shouldn't be any situation where it "breaks" their system, aside from...
