Hey,
today i tried to install a custom rom on my S6 (www youtube com/watch?v=ZFrvoNGoUn8) I did all steps in this Video, but with the first step there comes an error in Odin and on my phone
(started with: bl_old.tar.md5) :
In Odin it says:
Added!!
Enter CS for MD5..
Binary Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
Please wait..
Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..
Leave CS..
Odin engine v(ID:3.1100)..
File analysis..
SetupConnection..
Initialzation..
Get PIT for mapping..
Firmware update start..
SingleDownload.
sboot.bin
NAND Write Start!!
FAIL!
Complete(Write) operation failed.
All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
On my phone in download mode: Secure Check Fail: (BOOTLOADER)

I have the SM-G920F with Android 6.0.1 and Basebandversion: G920FXXS3DPC2
In the video, he flashed first a bootloader, than twrp and than a bootloader again. Where can i find these 2 Bootloader except for my device?
I know how to use twrp and had root on old phons, but i dont have any idea, which bootloader is the rigt one :/
You don't need to flash the old bootloader anymore to flash TWRP.
Just flash this via Odin, and TWRP will be installed on your device;

Yes
I rooted my phone with odin and i decided later that i wanted to unroot it. So i went into SuperSu and went to settings and tried the full unroot thing. My phone restarted and everything and i went to the root checker and it said i was unrooted. Then, i was still getting the Security notification that always pops up saying " Security Notice: Unauthorized actions have been detected ". So i went to that and i decided to try to factory reset my phone from that screen. So I cleared all the data on the phone and everything and it came back completely reset. The only problem was that I am still getting the notification. I have no idea what to do to get rid of it and i want to completely unroot my phone. I have looked all over the internet for the Galaxy S7 Verizon stock firmware. I can't find the firmware anywhere and its really bugging me having that notification there still. If there is no unroot available for the S7 right now, i was wondering if there is someway i can hide that notification for now to give me peace of mind. Thank you so much in advance.

Hi mate
Just flash a stock rom with odin on top of it
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G930V/
back up everything important before you do it ..just in case
Hey, i have a whole new problem now. When i was trying to unroot my phone, i accidentally installed the wrong firmware on to the phone. I turned my verizon phone into a t-mobile phone.
Im not exactly sure what flashing is, but is it where you put the BL, AP, CP, and CSC things into Odin and start it?
I might have already done that because i found the verizon firmware somewhere and when i try to do it in odin. It gives me an error and says fail.

Hi
Yes you need to flash it with Odin
did you downloaded from sammobile?
if not try i from there , follow their instructions :
Extract (unzip) the firmware file
Download Odin v3.11.1
Extract Odin ZIP file
Open Odin v3.11.1
Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes
Usually sammobile has only one tar file ( unzip it just once) , back up you photos and files before just in case
Check this thread is not for your phone but the basics apply to all samsung phones

Can you post a pic of the back of the phone showing the model number as SM-G930V and FCC ID. Then take a pic of the bootloader screen and show what what model number it has, if flash successfully it should be showing as SM-G930T. If proven true then it may seem that as the S7 is a Universal Hardware phone (QCOMM that is).
Please Help
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but I have a similar problem.
I tried flashing SM-G930U to my SM-G930V.
Odin failed, and I rebooted my phone. It will only reboot to download mode or recovery mode.
- I have tried redownloading files to check for corruption.
- Using different versions of Odin.
- Flashing to the stock files, which also fails.
- Using stock USB cable.
- Using different ports.
It doesn't seem like Odin will flash anything
Benaiah1287: I am in the exact same predicament...
I got the G930U firmware from sammobile and have tried flashing it with Odin versions 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12, all with failure.
My next steps are to try the stock G930V firmware or to see if the Samsung Software Upgrade Assistant can repair.

I hunted down the Comsy version of Odin 3.12 Odin3_v3.12_PrinceComsy.zip (MD5 hash 136E707B39C2E4CDC47820C68065CD5C)
but I still received a failure with the following output:

I also tried it without copying the BL file only, as I have also read that this could work, but no dice.
I then tried the stock G930V firmware (for my G930V) with the following result:

on reboot it gave me the 'Software Update Failed' screen
I then used the Samsung Repair Utility and after half an hour it was able to restore the original OS. It did give me a new warning about it not being able to make calls until it was set up with a Verizon account, but after reboot it still just has the message "SIM card is not from Verizon Wireless," so I'm assuming it is still in its original "factory unlocked" state.
So, about 8 hours of tinkering later, I cannot recommend trying to flash the SM-G930V at all.
My sole purpose for all this was in trying to get compatibility with Republic Wireless (which claims it supports the unlocked S7 but really means the North American 930U only).

You are trying to flash a downgraded bootloader version/firmware. Your phone has bootloader v4 and you are trying to flash a v2 firmware. Flashing a v4 or above will work.

For anyone keeping up, the source of the 930U with bootloader version 4 is here
...which I found through Fix For Those Who Tried Flashing The g930u Firmware
Too bad I just ordered a G930U instead thinking there was no current release
It appears it was also uploaded to sammobile just yesterday...but I am only assuming because the naming convention does not agree to the guide I found here, and I don't understand the 'PL#' part

I am having the same problem. How do I know the version before trying and failing until I get one that works?
Couldn't the boot loader 'version' be changed/hacked within the (down graded) boot loader so the version check would pass?

Have you installed adb? First install adb on your pc then your phone driver. Then it will work. Also turn on oem unlock in developer option.

Hey, I had the same problem in the first time I tried to root my J7(the phone wasn't booting and showed that error in the boot screen), what I did was instal the stock Rom and then he booted normally and I didn't lost any data.
Some days later I rooted it and installed a wannam xposed version(the only one I found that was working perfectly)
Good Luck !!

Have a Note Pro 12.2. Was wanting to install Lineage 16.0 OS on it.
Went into recovery and did a wipe/install.
Was able to root it using Odin.
Downloaded the Lineage files onto an SD card
Downloaded TWRP on the tablet with Google Play
Flashed the boot.img file to recovery
When I try to reboot into recovery, I get a Set Warranty Bit : Recovery on the startup screen and it just hangs there
I think I did originally backup the recovery file, but I cant seem to find it now. Its not on the SD card for the device where I thought it was.
Weirdly,
Booting regularly gets me the same screen
Booting into recovery gets me this screen (obviously)
Booting into bootloader gets me this screen too
I can't seem to power it down either, all key options just seem to loop back to the
bad recovery message.
It no longer 'connects' via USB to my computer either.
Can anyone please help me try to get this back? I can provide any additional info as well.
Im currently trying to find the original firmware for this device, but I haven't been very successful yet.
I would be very grateful for any information or links or help you could offer.
Thank you.
I opened the back just now to pull the battery.
When I replace it, and turn it back on, it goes to the same screen.
You're the second this year to post this problem, and nobody seems to have a fix.
Was thinking of putting a custom rom on mine, but this has put me off that idea.
Revert back to stock
To get your tablet back to a running state and revert everything back to stock, you'll want to use one of these two stock firmwares from the Sammobile site. I picked these two out based on the fact that you said you had a UK device. The firmware in the first link is from 2017, while the second link contains a firmware from 2016.
Personally, I have had no luck getting any of the recent firmware from any of the regions to install on my SM-P905 through ODIN; I get errors about partition sizes. However, installing older firmware from other regions works just fine. Try either of the two links and if the latest one for UK doesn't work, try the other one.
From 2017: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note-pro/SM-P905/BTU/download/P905XXSABQC1/127655/
From 2016: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note-pro/SM-P905/BTU/download/P905XXUABPG4/89307/
A successful installation of the firmware will reset your bootloader, recovery, and rom back to stock Lollipop. You will be able to use your tablet at that point, although give it a good long time to boot the very first time. This will give you a clean slate to try and install Lineage 16, or any other rom of your choice.
Thanks for the info, Shardsx, I'm downloading them now.
OK, an update.
I let the device power down completely on the Set Warranty Bit : Recovery screen until it died.
I then plugged the tablet into the usb on my desktop, and I was able to press power and the vol down (Recovery screen? It says Odin mode) again, but I havent been able to do much with it through Odin or Kies programs for reflashing the firmware.
If I press power and vol up, I get the same Set Warranty Bit : Recovery screen.

Please elaborate a little on why you haven't been able to do much with it through Odin. In your first step, you said you let the device power down completely until it died, which makes it sound like you drained the battery. You'll want plenty of battery power for this process, so charge your device up. It sounds like you do know how to get into Download/Odin mode, so I won't ask about that. Instead, tell us a little bit more about what you're doing in Odin. Are you loading the firmware using the AP button? Which of the two files are you trying to load? Are you unzipping the firmware file first so that you're flashing the *.tar.md5 file? Are you waiting the appropriate amount of time for the firmware to unpack within Odin before attempting to flash anything? (This step takes a long time too) Are you able to successfully start the firmware upload? What results are you getting? Are you leaving the Odin options as stock when you do this?
I havent had much time to work on it.
Once I do, I'll post and update to it, and your questions.
Thanks
OK, so initially, I let the device die down so that there was nothing left on the battery - I was unable to shut it off. When it would reboot, it always gave me that same Set Warranty Bit : Recovery screen.
I charged it completely, and was able to boot into the download mode, but initially, I couldnt get it to register when I plugged into the USB.
Here is what the recovery/download mode said...
Product Name: Samsing SM-P905
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
Knox Warranty: Void 0x1 (0)
Qualcomm Secureboot: Enable (CSB)
RP Swerv: S1, T1, R1, A1, P1
Secure Download: Enable
UDC Start
After a few reboots, it did though, and Odin was able to see it.
When I ran Odin, with both firmwares, they both gave me the Invalid EXT4 Image error... I then read online that I probably needed to reflash the PIT file for it.
I tried but was unsuccessful in reading mine off the device using a couple of tools., but I did find one in this thread that I tried... https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2758925
It didnt seem to work.
I rebooted the device a couple of times, and with one of the firmwares above, it would fail almost immediately with the same EXT4 error, saying something about the volume size being different (40960 vs 204800 ish), the second one, however, seemed to carry on further, almost 3/4 the way through the process before it failed with the same (volume size too big). I think that the PIT I used was incorrect, which is why I was asking for my specific one in another thread. I cant seem to find hardly any PITs for this device.
I also tried using Kies, as after one reboot, it said on screen to use it to recover firmware, but while it did connect to PC via USB, Kies did not detect it, either before the PIT and after.
Heres the Odin error mesage for the second firmware that lasted a while...

Thanks to the help from nowheretohide and shardsx, I was able to get my tablet restored to factory... Used Odin and the file provided here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2758925&page=2
Now, because I obviously messed it up so bad the first time, and am now gun shy, can anyone help me install Lineage 16.0 with a step by step?

Don't be gun-shy. You now have almost all the tools to recover from similar issues in the future.
I'm using Odin 3.11 for these instructions. Assumptions I'm making is that you have already downloaded a working version of TWRP for this tablet (remember, the absolute latest versions on the official TWRP site are not compatible with our tablets. Go through the TWRP site and look at the compatibility page for our tablet, or use Valera's custom TWRP).
Step 1: Charge up that tablet.
Step 2: Get into Download mode.
Step 3: Open up Odin. Leave options as default. The one you should really double-check is to make sure that "Re-Partition" is not checked or enabled.
Step 4: Click the AP button and load the TWRP recovery image, and then upload it to your tablet through Odin. Your tablet will reboot automatically reboot. You might as well enter Recovery at this point.
Step 5: I usually store the the ROM images on an external SD card. Inside Recovery, I usually like to do an advanced wipe and wipe out /system /data /cache to . Then, I'll flash the ROM image from the external SD card. After the flash, just reboot the tablet and wait until Android starts up.
I apologize for not providing screenshots. I'm doing this off the top of my head but generally that's what I do to load new ROMs.
The above steps will get you a barebones Android. You'll still have to flash Google's stuff on top if you want to go that way, but basically repeat Step 5 but replace it with the recommended Google packages and that should get you set up pretty good.
I think it was the fact that I used a different version of TWRP. Oops.
Will try again using the correct tools now.
Also, I think Ill go with CRdroid - I'd just like to have a speedier tablet with no Samsung bloatware and maybe a little better battery life, since I replaced the batteries not long ago.
Thank you all!
Got it running with CRdroid, was a little laggier than I liked and some apps were crashing...
Tried lineage 16.0 and found it much better.
I am at this point where I have to put the patched boot.tar in odin3. But if I press start nothing happens and 3 Minutes later this come up..

Can anyone help me please? I`m new to this and just followed a youtube guide...
Here is how to root using Odin if that's what you want.
You can get your stock ROM from here.
Briefly:
Unlock your phone bootloader. fastboot oem unlock should work.
Patch your stock ROM (specifically the AP file) with magisk manager app.
Use Odin to flash the patched image through download mode.
Some notes you'll need to know before flashing:
The number one rule when flashing anything: Neither I nor anyone hold any responsibility whatsoever should you brick your phone.
Your warranty is now void should you unlock your bootloader.
Unlocking the bootloader usually deletes all data on your device. So backup everything before proceeding.
Rarely flashing magisk may cause issues, however should you experience any problems at all then post an update here.
Flashing through custom recovery is much more preferred since you're new to this. Though your phone has no TWRP image. So you'll have to make do with this.
Goodluck.
