What error are u facing in Odin?

while flashing in odin I get no erros the device flashes successfully but when the device starts after flashing the screen starts blinking neither it would go into recovery nor normally boot.....no blinking of screen in downloading mode or arm9 mode

Flash froyo first(since it is a full 4pkg firmware & contains bootloader as well). Then try flashing gingerbread & see if it succeeds. I can provide u my firmware files(ddkb1 & ddkt3) which 100% work everytime I flash 'em.
If still the problem persists then there are some other issues.

I have tried flashing froyo...i dont have the one package but different files.still no luck .even tried to install the clockwork mode recovery but it isnt even entering into recovery.if u can give me the download links to your file I can try flashing them.

Install this Samsung USB Driver on pc.
Note:-
*Use Odin v4.42
*Rename ops file exactly as "BENI_v1.0.ops"(without quotes)...(might b case sensitive, so be careful)
Goto download mode by keep pressing & holding Volume Down+Home+Power Buttons together until the phone turn on in "Downloading" mode.
First, flash Galaxy Fit Froyo 2.2.1(ddkb1)
Procedure:
OPS: BENI_v1.0.ops
BOOT: APBOOT......
PHONE: MODEM.....
PDA: CODE......
CSC: CSC......
Click "Start".:thumbup:
& then flash Galaxy Fit Gingerbread 2.3.6(ddkt3)
Procedure:
OPS: BENI_v1.0.ops
Tick one package in Odin & place that ".tar.md5" file under One Package field.
Click "Start".:thumbup:
Additional advice: Try another pc/laptop coz in most cases USB is the major issue
*This will work for sure*:thumbup:
However, if unfortunately none of these work for u, then give it to service center...only way left...

ok I will give it a try once again .....and do u think that there may be some other issues lyk some hardware part faliure....

If the Download Mode is stable, there's no failure on phone's side. Our Fit's hardware never failed for such circumstances.Hence, pc is the main issue.
I think that all kinds of wrongs are easily recovered if Download Mode still exists on the phone(some ppl have their phone blinking in Download Mode...which is bad).
& 1 more thing... those care takers will definitely tell u that u need to replace ur motherboard(even if its alright) which isn't a good deal IMO.

hey I tried it your way but the same problem.....i think I have to visit the customer care and see if they can hook up to something...and I thing it would be wise going for a new cell if they say to change the motherboard....and thanks for your help bro.....

After I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7" using prerooted.tar.md5, I had the same issue. The screen kept flickering and now I want to unroot to go back to the original manufacturing setting. I just flashed this firmware and it restored to the original condition except the flickering problem still exists. Please help.

unbrick my galaxy tab 3 10.1 P5200
First I greatly appreciate this forum; you may actually be able to help - - - -
Apparently I may have turned my Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 P5200 into a brick; my battery was below 50%, and it asked me if I wanted to update my IAP? - -somewhat of a novice in this regards, said yes, immediately asked me to connect my charger, after I did the power was not charging and continued to drop. Now it will not charge at all - - -no battery prompt, no screen, no nothing, went completely dead. My question is how can I restore power to my TAB 3? I have tried most of the suggestions from google sites; and an IT friend of mine indicated this sounds like a firmware issue and I would have to send to manufacture - - -I purchased it 1 1/2 months ago brand new; I LOVE MY GALAXY TAB 3; currently in a war zone and it would take forever to send back and get back; can someone give me some hope on restoring power so I do not have to send back . . .Thanks to all of you, be safe.

Follow these steps :
1) First download Samsung firmware from GT-P3110 Firmware
2) Download the P3110 firmware based on your region or from any region but you need to wipe/cache reset in case you are going to flash from the region you are not residing.
3) Extract the firmware using winrar,winzip or 7zip,you will get a files with tar.md5 extension..
4) Open odin,please see only these options are checked. Auto-reboot and F.Reset Time,,plese uncheck all other options.
5) click on PDA and select the firmware you have got after extraction
6) Now click on start.
7) you should get a message in the left bottom panel saying "Successful".
8) your tablet will restart.
9) switch it off by pressing Power off button
10) Now immediately press Power button+volume up button for few seconds until you see samsung boot logo and leave power button but keep on pressing volume up button until you see android logo i.e recovery mode.
11) Wipe factory reset from menu and restart.
Enjoy Buddy.

Please Help - soft bricked S7 on 3 (UK) SM-G930F

Hi guys,
I have managed to soft brick my S7 flat after trying to root it. using odin. I have also done a factory reset - so no more debugging over the PC, I have to now try recovery on SD card.
The stock rom I have is G930FXXU1DQB7
I can't seem to find a stock rom to put onto the SD card and reinstall the rom ... I think samobile and another site seem to be the only ones that has the stock ROM and there d/l are terrible and often get a corrupted file ( I have tried x4 times now )
If some one could tell me how to either - Put a custom ROM on a stock S7 ( No TWERP on the phone yet ) .. or how to recover my S7 back to manufacturers ... Id buy you a virtual beer ! Had my phone for about 2 weeks and already I cant use it !!

The following thread has the stock firmware uploaded to Mega, so should be easier and more reliable to download:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3369431
Don't forget to thank the author of the thread if you find it helpful.

You need ODIN 3.12.3 from here
https://mega.nz/#!uBwC3KqR!17OPP5A1g9d7-GxAqCbjXFpmYfO7CgAHNcaZxqEkOao
You need the latest G930F ROM from either here
http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?q=G930F
Or from samfirm tool here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647
Extract the ROM, add AP, CP, CSC and BL to the 4 sections in ODIN
Put the phone into download mode (Volume Down & Home & Power)
Connect phone to PC USB, make sure the port is connected on ODIN
Press Start on ODIN
Wait for it to reboot back into working Android

thx for your comments, but I cant use odin as I have hard reset the phone ! - so no ADB via usb
I will try the links though ..

The phone does go into d/l mode ... but as I have hard reset to factory I need to go back into the phone and go into dev. options and enable debugging. .. trouble is The phone just boots to the logo and then loops.

What has ADB got to do with ODIN?
You just need download mode, nothing more
Every step I wrote is all you need to follow

hi guys,
Ive managed to fix it ! - I downloaded a good stock rom and uploaded like you guys said ... with Odin ... I had to mess abouit with Odin versions before I got one that worked.
Many thanks guys for all your help. I really had a panic on then for a bit !
