How to remove reactivation lock on Samsung Gear Sport (SM-R600)

(Note: use this video only as tutorial for gear sport. Follow the steps below)

1. Download All files here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/gg0pn7pg7e6jfj5/SM-R600_sdb.rar

2. Hold power down on gear sport until you see rebooting in blue, while it says that hit power button 2-3 times to get to bootloader menu. use power to move to Download (wireless) and hold power down to select. as soon as it enters Download wireless mode, hit power twice quickly to change to AP mode.

3. Run Net Odin and leave it running. Then go to your wireless settings and connect to the now-visible Gear Sport (RM-600XX). After a few minutes, Net Odin should show an IP address in the box on the left.

4. Click the AP button in Net Odin and load the unzipped combination file you downloaded above. Hit Start and flash it. Once done, gear sport will reboot to a screen with yellow diagnostic info. Hit Power, settings, connection, wifi, turn it on (Always on), then connect to your wireless internet connection.

5. Once connected, then touch that network connection in the gear sport connection list to open up details, and note the ip address (example: 192.168.201.12).

6. Hit back button to go back into settings, then About gear, then enable developer mode (USB Debugging), then hit back to back out of settings menu

7. Open up a command prompt window in the directory where you have adb.exe or click aniscon.exe to load sdb command window.

Type this: adb connect IPADDRESS:26101 - note IPADDRESS is your IP address you noted above, and the :26101 is a port number. So using above example, I would type: adb connect 192.168.201.12:26101

8. Once connected, type adb devices and you should see it listed.

9. Here are the ADB commands to remove the reactivation lock settings/flags. Make sure to run command after the other's successful execution.

adb root on

adb push empty.bin /opt/usr/media/

adb shell dd if=/opt/usr/media/empty.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p15

adb shell dd if=/opt/usr/media/empty.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0p17

adb shell reboot download

After rebooting your gear screen should have a line with activation lock: off

10. Once step 9 is done, hold power to reboot your gear sport - it's ready to be flashed with retail firmware, and just like before, put it into Download wireless mode, and AP mode.

11. In Net Odin take your unzipped retail firmware files and place each file as named in filenames, in the appropriate slots for AP, CSC, and BL. Hit Start to flash.

12. Once done and rebooted, should be clean and good to go.
