Hi,
I got that Smartwach 2 SW on Christamas and decided to check if there is new firmware. Connected using Sony update service and got notification that there is new one.
Started to update, got fail message and now watch shows Flash FS every time is turned on.
Tried few times update few times, reinstalled Update software and no luck
Does anybody knows if can flash firmware using Flashtool?
Thanks

So as you know 3 days ago a small OTA update came out for Verizon which is pretty much the same one AT&T received last month. On wifi I tried to download the update via OTA on the phone, my phone is not rooted and when I tried to download it it just failed in the middle of downloading and I got the error code 503. The wifi I'm using is very fast and steady and nothing else on the phone is having an issue at the moment. So I tried to download it again and it told me that the software currently installed on the phone(original phone release date software) is the newest up to date software. So I called Samsung and told them the situation along with the new build number "VRU1AOD5"(from the new OTA not installed on my phone yet) and software version number currently installed on the phone(5.0.2) and they told me that I'm up to date 5.0.2 and that to their knowledge they never heard of the update or build number I gave them and there was no update for Verizon. So how I can redownload the OTA? because for 3 days now I'm unable to download the OTA due to the 503 error from the very first time I tried to download the update.
What is mind boggling to me is how Samsung the creator of the device has no idea of this update so they can't even help me out. Then they're basically telling me how the hell am I getting the 503 error when I have the latest build(according to them) and software update which is not the case here and I told them that.
Use the Odin file in the return to stock thread
Hey guys,
I have been using a 5.0.2 rooted firmware for the longest time possible and it is time for my to update my firmware because of certain battery issues.
How should I go about updating it? I did supersu's full unroot and tried the original software update but I still get the error message saying that my firmware is modified.
Tried out smart switch restore+update but after downloading the firmware and putting my phone to download mode, it gets stuck at 0%, not sure if its my wire issue because its a 3rd party wire, lost all my original wires so far with no more ideas I can come up with.
I am currently downloading my firmwares from sammobile which is taking ages, with the risk of the download corrupting halfway through. Can I flash a 6.0.1 stock firmware on my 5.0.2 and magically everything will work and my phone will be on 6.0.1 and then I can proceed to root it again? My download mode shows that I am using official samsung firmware but its custom. Or do I need to find a 5.0.2 stock firmware then flash it and update from there? I can't find my region's 5.0.2 anymore because its too old, I'm from Singapore by the way.
Any help is greatly appreciated, have been trying for 6 hours to get this to work so far and frankly I dont think I want to go through the trouble of rooting once I update to 6.0.1 because of this cumbersome process just to try and minimize battery drain.
Fixed the issue, smartswitch works, the usb I was using was plugged through my keyboard, not straight to my motherboard so transferring of files couldn't happen
Hello everyone, I searched here and found several discussions on this problem, but didn't found a solution.
My friend gave me a G920F with a bootlop problem (stock Samsung ROM), it also has a broken recovery which doesn't load at all. I can only go into Download Mode. The fact is, downloading the latest available firmware for ITV, dated 30th March if I remember well, with Nougat, I get the error message on the phone: SW REV CHECK FAIL: DEVICE 6, BINARY 5. Now, how the hell is possible that the phone has a bootloader version greater than the latest firmware available to download?My friend told me she updated the phone few days ago, so it could clearly be the 30th March, which is also the firmware I'm trying to install with ODIN. Anyone could help? I can't really figure it out.
Hi, I've got the same problem. I had stock Nougat on my G920F. Never rooted. Then I recieved a call form unknown caller and the phone crashed. Now it's in a bootloop. I can't access recovery menu, only download mode. Odin fails to push the latest software and I get "SW REV CHECK FAIL: DEVICE 6, BINARY 5" on the phone. I've tried SmartSwitch but it doesn't support G920F anymore. I tried to find sth in here but the only solution I found is to get AOKP, which is dead with no download link. Please help.
I have the same problem. I installed TWRP and LineageOS and want to go back to stock. I downloaded firmware for the phone, start it in Odin and it says in Download screen on the phone: "[CM] SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 6, BINARY 5". I Googled it and only found that I'm possibly flashing older bootloader than what I already have. I updated my phone when it was on stock like 2 days ago.
I will try and download newest firmware I can find, 4/4/2018. and see if it works then.
-------------------EDIT--------------------
It worked! I downloaded a ROM from sammobile from 4/4/2018, can't remember which one exactly but it doesn't matter and I didn't get any issues. Everything works fine now.

Hi Guys.
I hope someone can help with my firmware issues. I have a Gear S3 classic that had the latest firmware update (R770XXU2CRH1) which was updated via normal OTA update at the time.
Due to battery not charging to 100%, I decided to explore rolling back to an earlier firmware then updating again via normal OTA to see if it would solve the issue. After reading many threads here on XDA, I managed to download R770XXU2BQC5 and flash via NetOdin successfully.
My phone now says that R770XXU2CQL1 is available for download. The problem now is that the normal OTA update process runs and copies to the watch and the watch goes through the normal update process, but when finished, the update fails. I have even tried factory resetting the watch and connecting direct to WiFi, then download the OTA directly on the watch. The whole process works, but at the end I get a message that the update failed.
Can anyone please give advice on how to fix so that the normal OTA update works again. Or if someone has the correct CQL1 files (AP, CSC, BL) willing to share. I cannot find these anywhere.
I am trying to update my Verizon Note 5 to the latest RH1 update. It currently has the RG1 update installed. I no longer have cell service on this phone (just use it as a media device) and have used the Verizon Software Update tool via my PC for the last 4 or 5 updates and everything has gone smooth. Today the Software Update tool froze with the error message on the phone Secure Check Fail (Radio) and I’m stuck in an Update Failed screen and unable to power down. I have used Odin before and have successfully rooted several other Samsung devices. I think this issue can be resolved in Odin but not sure where to look for repair files. Please advise.
Crisis averted, I was able to repair it through the Verizon Repair Update tool. Thanks.
