Hi guys I just bricked my phone. It is the vzw galaxy s 3 and I had it rooted using this method --> www dot youtube dot com/watch?v=TnOthODuAvM&list=UUzoKZegNgnnYJ3ex4uatJCw&index=0&feature=plcp
I was trying to un-root it using this method --> www dot youtube dot com/watch?v=4gViuW3xUts&feature=plcp
but it failed writing and now my phone says firmware upgrade encountered and issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
I am trying to be as specific as i can as defined by this video --> www dot youtube dot com/watch?v=_UhIfFo8GFE&feature=plcp
Please help me out asap. The reason I am trying to restore it to stock is because i am going to Verizon tomorrow and i am getting it replaced cause my screen cracked. I really messed up didn't I?
After it said it failed to flash in Odin3 I unplugged the phone and pulled the battery but that made it do what it is i think. anybody who can help me?
also I can get into download mode I think I just re installed the stock.vzw_root66 file that i used to root the phone leading to its overwrite making it fail I am not sure how to fix this please help
PS: yes i pushed the power button and i have not tryed to do anything with it yet because i am scared to make it worse. and yes it is charged lol
please help me lol
here is a little update: gyazo [dot] com/3e01595d8a405203c9355996abea130c
why did you use that method when i have a full tutorial in the dev section...stick to xda for your modding needs! also try section 6 of my guide. if that dont recover your device then try the alternate method linked at the bottom of that section.
Thank you very much sir I am trying your methods now but the kernel is taking forever to download considering it is a 1.2 gig file lol. I will post an update after I am done.
I was folliwing your guide and I only got to step 6 then this happened:

This has happened to me before...if this was the stock rooted ROM I would try the stock Un-rooted ROM. I think the rooted one gave me that same issue on multiple flashes and the stock one worked fine.

Ok, so get this. I followed the procedure from the sticky thread on how to flash, and Odin failed at flashing the firmware step. Don't know how. It just failed saying connection error.
Now, starting the phone gives a black screen which keeps on going like forever.
I tried to reflash, and same error at exact same step. So, I repackaged that tar file, and again flashed it, and Odin said Pass. I thought, it worked, but when powering up the system, still same issue. Just a freaking black screen.
So, now, I am confused as to what I missed?
try to flash your firmware again with latona 1st.. then flash your desired firmware.
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda premium
I have only one folder, which is I guess for Phone files only. So, if I use PIT, won't it create problems later?
Anyways, anything is better than nothing. Will try to use latona.pit before flashing. Downloading a new firmware too, just to make sure firmware is not corrupt.
BTW, this is the exact log from ODin, if it helps.

New update. Turns out, I was wrong. That one tar file was supposed to go for PDA, and not phone. Stupid Me.
Anywho, I downloaded a stock firmware with all the three packages, and flashing with that. It worked. Now, trying to flash the new firmware again. Lets hope, it works too.
Nice br'o, welcome to xda community .
Ok, so that new package is seriously bonkers. Why the hell is modem.bin added with rest of PDA files. But, phone works now, and the firmware is installed. So, lets forget it. First galaxy sl f/w update successful.
Mods, plz close the thread.

So basicallly yesterday i tried rooting my sgs4g. I read the bible and the noob flash guide but some how i still messed up. Using super one click i was able to root the phone without any problems. I hooked the phone up to odin 1.7 and tried flashing one of the stock roms recommended in the noob guide to flashing but odin would not finish the flashing sequence and only states that the complete write operation failed. I was freaking out after about four hours and was literally trying tons of .tar files ive tried two from whitehawx off here the two from the noob guide aand no dice i dont know. i know the phone is in download mode i got that down yesterday lol but i still can not complete the flash. I have both 32 and 64 bit drivers installed on my computer but i cannot complete any type of flash. I can turn the phone on but it has no data and vibrates almost every ten seconds. It does say its still on 2.21 but baseband is unknown and kernal is stock i believe. i can pull the number when i get home. I am lost at this point im just tryilng to get back to stock or anything that makes the phone usable again. thanks in advance to any one who helps i wil donate...lol

Start with the basics - a factory data reset. See if that helps.
Also, you should not have/need both 32-bit & 64-bit drivers on your PC. That potentially is a conflict within itself. What operating system are you on? If it's 32-bit, only have those drivers. If it's 64-bit, only use those. I'd uninstall them both and then reinstall a clean set based on your OS.
Look for ODIN 1.85. It's out here somewhere. I've had more luck with it than 1.7.
Let me know how things go with this. If you're not working after trying to go this route let us know and we'll push forward.

Do you have multiple USB ports on your computer? Make sure you are plugged into one that goes directly to the CPU motherboard - one on the back. I have had issues trying to flash through USB ports that are on the front of a computer. Odin will recognize your phone, but it will freeze during flash. Just something to check.
I'm on windows 7. I have tried every usb on the laptop lol i've had a long time to try it out. So since I'm on windows 7 I should delete the 32 bit right? Thank both of you guys I'm on my way as we speak to fire up the laptop. I'll delete the drivers and search for the newer version of odin. Thank you guys again

Not necessarily. Win7 can be either 32 or 64-bit. If you're not sure, right-click on your Computer/My Computer icon, and go to Properties. I believe it tells you there. I don't have a Win7 PC in front of me so I can't be 100%.
ok i am on 64bit windows.i deleted everything i downloaded yesterday so im starting from complete scratch i also downloaded odin 1.85. I am going to try to flash the .tar that is listed in the noob guide to oden from krylon 360 [ROM-ODIN]T959VUVKB5.

I haven't looked at the KB5 ROM. Does it come with multiple files (pit, pda, csc, phone)? If so, all you should have to do is put the files in the right slots in ODIN, don't mess with the check boxes, and flash it.

What files are you using and where are you putting them?

I've never used KB5 before. What if you were to try something a bit more updated?
If you want to stay Froyo you can grab the stock KD1 from:
http://hotfile.com/dl/120929051/0ea3e13/T959VUVKD1.rar.html
IF you want to go Gingerbread, you can grab chadster's KG4 from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183413
Like Exodian alluded to, you have to make sure you have the files in the right places. Let us know what you're doing. If you can snag a screen shot of ODIN and post it, that might help too.

Cool. That was the first Gingerbread leak that came with the right boot loaders. What you're going to want to do is:
- Put CODE_T959VUVKG4_CL1385158_REV00_user_low_noship.tar.md5 into PDA
- Put hawk_Sidekick_VibrantPlus_831.pit into PIT
- Put SGH-T959V-CSC-TMB-VIBRANTP.tar.md5 into CSC
- Put T959VUVKG4-Phone-CL1037720.tar.md5 into Phone
Don't mess with any of the check boxes, and flash.
Let us know how it goes.
i will, sorry for the delay multiupload is taking forever today. thank you guys i should be able to try this in about 11 min
No rush on our part, man. Just hope you get it working.
Mission Accomplished!

Hi,
I am a idiot...
I have search all over this site and can not find a solution.
I tried rooting my Samsung Galaxy s2 Skyrocket
I used this link... http://galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-root/how-to-root-att-galaxy-s2-sgh-i777/#comment-496
After Oden Failed I was stuck in Download Mode.
After a bit it went to " Firmware Upgrade Encountered an issue. Please Select Recovery mode in Kies & try again."
Kies nor Oden recognize the phone anymore...
I came to realize I have a SGH-I727 ERRRR
Anyways I am stuck at this
"ODEN MODE
Product name: SGH-I727
Custom Binary Download: NO
Current Binary: Samsung Official
Firmware Upgrade Encountered an issue. Please Select Recovery mode in Kies & try again."
Is there anyway to get back to factory or root from here a proper way?
Congrats as you are the first victim.
Just wanted to say Congrats you are the first victim of the i777/i727 confusion.
My suggestion is to follow exactly what it tells you to do.
Download Kies 2.0
And hopefully you can recover
OR
Maybe you can just power off and power on the device and see if it will boot maybe Odin never got a chance to write anything.
Thanks
Well
I managed to Find different Kernal to use on Oden
Though its the Telus Kernal
I Need to get the I727 Factory Kernal....
so thats my issue Now ...
I can post a drop box link to the stock boot.img if you need it

HERE IS THE i727 UCKJ2 STOCK KERNEL ODIN
***************MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE CORRECT SAMSUNG DRIVERS INSTALLED********************
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Extract the downloaded zip to your preferred folder
2. Go to the folder in which you extracted the zip to. Right-click ODIN3_v1.81.exe and left-click Run As Administrator <----------IMPORTANT
3. Turn off your phone or pull battery and put back in
4. Hold both of the volume keys and plug in the USB cable while still holding the volume keys
5. You will be prompted with needed input. This is now the correct time to make up your mind LOL
6. Open the ODIN window from which we earlier launched
7. Select PDA then browse to the file i727UCKJ2_STOCK_KERNEL.tar.md5
8. ENSURE THAT ONLY **AUTO REBOOT** & **F.RESET TIME** & OF COURSE **PDA(which you just clicked to select the kernel tar)** ARE CHECKED AND NOTHING ELSE
9. Now click START
10. Once the process has completed the phone will have rebooted and you should see "PASS" at the top-left of ODIN. YOU CAN NOW UNPLUG YOUR PHONE AND ENJOY THIS LOVELY STOCK KERNEL!!
****I HAVENT PERSONALLY TESTED THIS AS OF YET BECAUSE I AM AT HOME SO I CANNOT GUARANTEE IT WILL WORK****
I extracted the kernel from the boot.img, created the tar, created the md5 and zipped up the created kernel md5 tar with ODIN and there you have it.
Please give feedback after using it so I can ensure that all is well. ENJOY GUYS!
uh oh

Very sorry for the failure man. I have my skyrocket now so will be able to figure out what went wrong shortly.
Did you right-click Odin and run as administrator? Could be the culprit. Also I have double checked over the files, pulled kernel from my phone and compared to kernel used in my Odin and they are identical.... Reran the steps to create the Odin tar and file size matches the one already created ???? Wtf!!
Now i'm wondering if there is a specific version of Odin to be used with our phones because besides that i'm stumped at the moment. Any input?

damn tough luck... but i guess you should have read more clearly that the post was for the I777 lol...hope you can get ur phone up and working...i wonder if theres a way you could flash the kernel via ADB, i know on MOTO you can access ADB before booting Android..Not sure if Samsung has a mode like that.

I personally rooted my SR long before the forum was established... I was probably the first one that did it, and the first to post my results in the I777 sections.
But unlike most people.. I DO READ and study all the possible facts...
I mean it sucks that he is stuck... but hey.. **** happens
As for helping we can only do so much as of what we have. Without a source code or/and a full original dump of the ROM.. it's really hard to "fix" a problem.

sorry forgot to mention that. does the latest version of triangle away work with galaxy s4? i used appdroid to download an older version and it ran everything like it was suppose to but it wasnt working, my count didnt change 'says im at 5'

I used on the last modem (gng8) and worked very well. You must download last version of triangle away from xda. Steps are:
1. If you have an rooted S4 then you must instal with Odin original ROM (stock).
2. Root with CF-Autoroot.
3. Instal Triangle Away and run.
4.Install again Stock ROM.
With this your knox (if you have) will be tripped.
If you have problem with install stock ROM , you must do this:
1.Install last driver
2.Change USB cable
3.Change USB port.
I hope to help you!

Where are you loading the file to?
From my understanding you should be selecting either BL or AP in Odin 3.09 for the bootloader

I have used both Odin 3.07 and Odin 3.09 with my Samsung S5, although I did have a little trouble at the start as I didn't have the correct USB (Samsung) drivers installed.

ive used both oding 3.07 and 3.09 as well, and Bootloaders i always use BL kinda a given and modems i tried in both AP and CP always a fail no matter what lol. however for now i may just stick with the simep CF-AutoRoot. its not wanam or omegadroid but its the only one so far that allows me to have root and keep my phone and internet signal as well lol. and with it i can still download root apps to do all the tweaking i want
He howdy ho,
Like it says in the title, I rooted my phone (using galaxys7root.com tutorial) a while back with the intent to get access to Hosts so I could keep myself off reddit at least on mobile. Everything was working fine for a couple weeks, but then this morning a lot of my apps kept crashing (not even while they were being used, just in the background. Repeat offenders were google maps, facebook and google play services). Thinking all I needed was a reboot, I restarted my phone and now its stuck in a boot loop. No big deal, I could just reflash to stock with Odin and be done with it.
Downloaded Odin 3.12.3 and grabbed the T-Mobile stock firmware from galaxys7root.com and started the process in Odin. Except it keeps failing and I don't know why. Here's what odin is saying:
<ID:0/005> Odin engine v(ID:3.1203)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/005> Initialzation..

Information on phone screen reads:

EDIT: Tried re-doing it after a fail in a different USB port, gets past initialization, but now its hung up on "SET PARTITON"
Odin log now looks like this:

Hi, it's been a while since I have done rooting on galaxy's. But, I'm still using odin. I'm not sure about that galaxys7root.com or how reliable is, but I suggest you visit sammobile.com and get the firmware that's right for your phone, check for phone model or carrier and also the firmware version that matches the one that was on your phone when rooted. Get Odin from them too and follow the instructions on how to flash at the bottom on the download page.

Thanks, I didn't know about Sammobile, I'm downloading everything from there right now, will update when I have tried it out (I'm using a free account so the download speed is abhorrent). Thanks for the reply!
Also what version of Odin are you using? Theres a special version that i was told to be used for the galaxy s7 - Odin3 v3.12 by PrinceComsy. Make sure its the PrinceComsy version.
Let us know if you need any more additional help!
It's working now, I used Odin 3.11 I got from SamMobile. No longer bricked and now its got stock firmware on it. Awesome, thanks guys!
Hey I badly need to know which firmware you used? SamMobile only has it for the sm-935f? I need it for the sm-930t, the stock firmware. I'm bricked too.

Do you know if there's a fix for this without having to go back to stock ???

Call me naive, but how do I just go about "using kies" to restore my firmware. I downloaded the latest version already.

Here is the link
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G930T/
Use the tools provided there. Follow the instructions. You should be able to restore back to stock. Regarding root, my advice is not to try it.

How can I give you 1000 thanks. I searched the better part of the weekend and Friday looking for this correct compilation of firmware. Dude, in all sincerity, you just saved me from having to claim insurance and get a different one, which isn't cheap. Took 2 hours to download but still, you are the man in my book today my friend. Thank you.
