I have a little problem and could use some help. I was running superclean 2.9.2 and attempted to switch over to the community rom. Before flashing the rom I downloaded the stock CI500_VZW_DL09_ECLAIR.tar.md5 file and attempted to load that with Odin(yes i chose pda). I have used Odin multiple times in the past w/out issues. Well this time my screen went blank on the Odin was stuck on param.lfs. When i disconnected my phone it now boots to the screen with a phone, exclamation point and a computer. I closed Odin restarted my computer and tried again with the same result. I can still access the download mode and CWM. When I try to complete a nandroid restore the phone goes through the whole process and then when I click to reboot I get the same screen as above. My next step was to download DI01package3.tar.md5. I tried pushing this with Odin and it got stuck on sbl.bin. Please help me get my phone back.

Sorry everyone... I tried one more time (my 5th attempt!) and it worked this time! I have no idea what happened with the earlier attempts. Thanks
Hello everyone. I'm having a problem with a Rogers Skyrocket here and hope someone can help. It was running a custom ROM, but I was given the task of returning it to stock. I don't recall which ROM was on it, but it worked nicely. I should have just kept it that way!
Thanks to vincom's super helpful posts, I got the info & file(s) needed to get this thing back to stock. I installed Odin 1.85, and extracted
I727RUXLF3_I727RRWCLF3_I727RUXLF3_HOME.tar.md5
from the zip. I started by doing a wipe/factory reset (from inside the custom rom) first, and rebooted to see that it showed the initial setup screen. Then pulled battery and booted the phone into ODIN mode. I made sure to kill Kies completely before connecting the phone to my laptop (WinXP). Then launched Odin, hit the PDA button, loaded up the above file, left the check-boxes as they were, and flashed. It was successful, and rebooted the phone.
The rogers logo appears, and the samsung galaxy bootanimation comes up, and it continues to animate.... forever (for the record, I waited 20 minutes, more than enough time). I can pull the battery and try to boot again but it still stays on the bootanimation. I'm not sure what else to do? I can still get into stock recovery or Odin mode. Can anyone help? Thanks
Hi
i recently bricked my phone while updating from stock to phils cwm recovery and my cable unplugged. After that my phone went just dead. I read on the internet and used a OMAP flash and after that i could access my download mode, but it has a yellow exclamation mark triangle and has the android mascot with a 0 in it. I dont know what that means.
Now i some how managed to put a stock rom in it (Gingerbread). But it never switches on. I keep getting a blank screen, not even the samsung bot load symbol comes up. But when ever i use a pit file to just repartition the device my phone starts up and the gingerbread os switches on. But it keeps flashing that every process of google is being forced close, so i cant even move ahead. its just stuck there, and error keeps coming up with force close pop up.
If i try to restart the device it gets the blank screen again. it works again if i repartition it.
i even tried nand flash, but it gets stuck in odin after the message Erase.....
i tried adding a new recovery to no avail. Neither does a new Android OS gets pushed in, gets stuck at NAND write start.
The phone doesnt let me access recovery also. It gets the same blank screen when i try.
help please

Hmm ... after flashing a custom (PhilZ-cwm) recovery, the yellow triangle shows that you are no longer on official/stock firmware.
You can reset it with TriangleAway app from Chainfire.
If download mode still works, you can try to flash another (custom) kernel with a custom recovery. But it has to be a kernel which is compatible with your current ROM.
For further questions, please post in the Galaxy SII GT-I9100 G Q&A thread.
If you have issues with your download mode, check the [GUIDE] Fix an unflashable or soft bricked I9100G thread.
Thread closed ... thank you !
TLDR;
Trying to install custom recovery with odin auto-reboot checked off so stock doesnt replace odin says PASS I disconnect the phone but in downloading mode the blue bar is full and the phone doesn't want to shut down. I remove the battery and try to boot into custom philz-recovery it gets stuck in samsung logo. But functions perfectly on normal boot. I reset the whole phone and try the cf-auto-root method and the phone gets stuck in samsung logo now not even booting up normally. So i reset the whole phone again with odin and firmware from sammobile now sitting with a stock android and knox warranty ticked without having a root.
(Sorry for the long post I've tried to provide as much info as I can) So I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 exact model number SM-G900H. And I'm trying to root it. I go into download mode than I launch Odin and check off Auto-Reboot so it won't boot up and the stock recovery replaces the custom I'm trying to install, I connect the phone it says its connected than I select AP and than choose philz-recovery (latest version) and start it. So the Odin finishes its work says "PASS" in green letters. I disconnect the phone but on S5 the blue bar is full and it does not want to shut down (if the auto-reboot is checked it just reboots and it doesn't even want to boot into stock recovery just stuck on samsung logo) I've waited a good hour and still nothing. So I pull out the battery for it to shut down and than I straight try to boot into recovery and it just gets stuck on samsung logo and the blue letters don't even show up. Before rooting the recovery worked and I factory resetted the device before so samsungs knox does't interrupt with its not-being-able-to-boot-into-recovery-if-you-dont-know-the-password-to-the-samsung-account. And I'm now sitting here now with knox warranty ticked and not even rooted BUT I CAN STILL USE THE PHONE PERFECTLY WITHOUT TRYING TO BOOT INTO RECOVERY JUST BOOTS UP NORMALLY. So what I do than is reset the phones firmware with Odin from sammobile. Ok stock android. Than I try the Cf-auto root method with Odin. No luck phone just doesn't even boot up. So I reset the phone again same method. Ok stock android again. Sitting here reading through google for 8 hours 5 of thise spent on xda. STILL NO LUCK. So I hope someone can resolve the issue. I can't provide any pictures as I just rage closed my computer and didn't take pics. And if I install cynogenmod with heimdall is it going to be rooted (i know you don't need a root to do that) and can someone provide a guide to that heimdall cynogenmod install method?
Hey guys,
I just bought the Samsung J4+ (SM-J415F) and now have a dead phone after flashing a firmware. It doesnt turn on. I cannot put it into recovery mode. The screen is always black. This is the order of events:
1. I succesfully flashed twrp + supersu (i followed the steps from this page: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ecovery-twrp-3-2-3-1-galaxy-j4-j415f-t3876876)
2. After doing that i had a bootloop.
3. I decided to flash the following rom to get rid of the bootloop: [up_vnROM.net]_J415FXXU1ARIK_J415FOJM1ARIK_EGY_8.1_FULL (https://www.firm-ware.com/2018/10/samsung-galaxy-j4-plus-firmware-download.html)
4. This also worked successfully and i saw the android symbol for a few seconds. However, then the power went off. Now the phone is dead.
It seems like i can turn it on to download mode (screen still black tho) and connect it to odin (odin is recognizing the phone) but if i try to flash again it stucks on "setup connection". I am using odin 3.13.1. Yes I already tried to run odin as administrator but it didnt change anything.
Any ideas how to bring my phone back to life? Any help would be appreciated.
hello,
Some time ago my phone started to lag spontaneously. I had to force boot it in order to get it back working. After few days it repeated, then again, then again. Last time force boot didn't work - got stuck at "samsung welcome screen" All i could do is to enter recovery and download mode. Tried to do everything in recovery didn't work. Tried to flash rom via odin, but after 20mins of flashing stuck at one point i aborted it (stupid af idea) Phone went into screen i enclosed. smart switch doesn't see phone at the same time pc detects it (sound when connecting) odin does too yet still can't flash official rom.
