[Q] Cant flash and overwrite with stock rom on M919 - General Questions and Answers

I need help
I have a Tmobile Galaxy s4 M919.
After the 4.3 update, i am not able to completely flash a stock rom in order to have my phone working again.
Tried root, tried CWM ot TWRP, Odin stock, Kies, but every attempt got stuck for ever on the boot logo screen with blue letters on the left hand up corner saying recovery booting.
I can't access download mode but not recovery.
Only onceworked, and i could flash thru KIES and the download screen after that shown:
System Official Samsung
Binary Official.
After that i start to have an issue with SIMCARD non detected, and had to restart and never worked again.
Seems like Knox is dealing with custom rom or bootloader and keeps on bootlogo screen.
Any help will n]be very appreciated.

Best thing to do is use odin on your pc and get the stock rom from samsung or another source, then completly flash it so it will wipe out you phone completly and then reinstall stock. This happened to my m919. If you need more help on how to completly replace the stock rom using odin there are plenty of videos that show you step by step. You just soft bricked your phone so it's fixable.

I have flashed several times via odin and kies, but everytime i still with Binary Official and System Custom.
Seems like the flash does not overwrite the kies bootloader, thats why i am stuck on boot revovery.
Once it worked, the system and binary became official, then i flashed knox free stock rom via recovery.
As i told, i can acces download but not recovery.
Does anyone know any knox free stock rom flashable via odin???

p6200 Cant access recovery, bootloop on 3.2, stuck on samsung logo 4.0.4

Hi, sorry for my bad english. Im from Vietnam, and im having a p6200
last night i tried to flash an the galaxy hd, the modified stock rom, through cwm, and i forgot to put it on external sdcard, i put it on the internal sdcard, and it failed to flash when system is erased. I've lost all my backup, because it was on the internal sdcard, but i still have the cwm recovery at that time.
Then, i tried to flash the 4.0.4 stock firmware through Odin. Flashing was ok, Odin show PASS!, but my tab is stuck on the SAMSUNG logo forever. This time looks like i've lost my root and cwm. I cannot access CWM nor stock recovery.
Then, i tried to flash back the stock 3.2, flashing still ok, but my tab got bootloop on the Samsung galaxy tab screen. I've tried the Vietnam fw and the UK fw both. When flashing is done and it's about to reset, ive seen just in a flash that there were 1 or 2 red line say that cannot access data/recovery... something.
I tried the emergency recovery in KIES. Never worked.
Now im out of option. I got bootloop on stock 3.2, stuck on 4.0.4, and i cannot access the recovery. Even when i try to flash recovery through Heimdall, it wont work. I can only access the download mode. By the way, the phone is neither stuck or bootloop, but it still charging through AC very good.
Did i hard brick my tab? Do i have to send it to warranty? Is my warrant now void? What options left do i have?
Panicing
Any one? Just tell me how can i get the recovery mode back

You are not alone.I was running 4.0.4 on my p6200 and was experimenting with the permanent CWM recovery and the temporary touch one.One thing led to another and my tablet was stuck at the samsung bootanimation.After a couple of reboots it was stuck at the galaxy tab plus logo.Finally it wouldn't boot anymore and my tab is literally dead.It doesn't respond to USB connection although it gets warm when plugged into an AC socket.I've been reading about the solutions extensively. There seems to be two : 1. Get it exchanged under warranty or 2. Get it Jtag-ed if you are out of warranty.

that would work, unless you have a hard brick. of course, you should try it, and see if you can recover from the bootloops.
Hey guys it seems i have found a solution. Just find a stock heimdall package rom and flash with heimdall. Somehow heimdall seem to be able to do what odin couldnt. Now my tab is running stock ics smoothly. Just use heimdall to flash. I hope this gonna help someone who in the situation like i was.

Stuck in Update boot loop Please Help!!!

I was rooted with CWM recovery. I odin flashed stock with root injected and then flashed via odin stock kernel and recovery. At this time I was able to pull the update and the device restarted to install. Upon 100% completion the device rebooted as I woudl expect but upon reboot it goes right back into the install, hits 100% and does the same thing. It appears Im stuck in a update boot loop. Has anyone else experienced this?
I did a odin restore with Stock 8013.tar with root injected but upon reboot once odin completes it goes right back into this update loop. Someone please help!!!!

I tried to unroot my Galaxy note 10.1 wi-fi and have caused such damage that it won't boot up.

I have same Problem
My only response would be to go to sammobile and download as close to shipped rom as you can (must be for your region and carrier, if from carrier), updated rom is fine. Make sure the download ISN'T corrupted by doing an MD5 check.. Also before f;lashing, make sure you exit KIES as this can screw up the connection in ODIN.
Put in Download mode, hold down volume and power until it says a scary warning, ignore the warning and press up volume.
Flash with ODIN making sure re-partition ISN'T ticked, when it finishes flashing turn off power.
Go to recovery by holding up volume and power button until it goes into recovery.
Wipe data/cache and then wipe dalvik cache.
Reboot and see what happens.
Good luck.

Not working, not go the Recovery Mode, Only Samsung Logo.
I'm having similar issue as Odin keeps failing when trying to flash ROM.
Does anyone know the commands to do it through ADB? I've done it before on my nexus7 but don't know the commands to exactly use for the note. I still can't get into recovery. Only can get into that ODIN mode. I have all drivers and Android ADB installed on PC.
It seems like nothing will write to the NAND. Although my flash count changes now showing my attempts. I might have no choice but to call Samsung and file a warranty claim. I just don't want to lose all the pictures and info that's in my tablet.
Well I got my tablet back yesterday from Samsung. They fixed it. The report showed they replaced some piece that burned out. I forgot the name of it. Unfortunately all my info and stuff was erased. So I had to reinstall everything manually. At least my tablet working like new again. So glad to have it back. Been like a month or so since I've been able to use it. My nexus 7 and galaxy s3 was holding me down in the meanwhile.
This note is a great device. IM seeing again why I've missed it so much. Works flawlessly on stock Tom.

[Q] BOOTLOOP/ (maybe?) hard brick issue

Phone specs:
Samsung Galaxy S3 Verizon SCH-i535
It was already running KitKat 4.4.2 before I rooted
This is my first time rooting and flashing ROMs to my Samsung Galaxy s3 and I have bricked it. I'm pretty sure it can be salvaged but have yet to find anything that works.
I have written the long version for those who need it, but the short version is that I screwed up and can no longer boot into recovery mode or normal mode, I'm not even sure if Download mode is working, and my device isn't recognized by Kies or Odin on my PC so I cannot yet do a recovery from there.
As of now my phone only boots into Odin Mode (NO recovery, NO normal boot, device NOT recognized by computer programs like Kies and Odin) and gives the following info:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SCH-I535
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
SYSTEM STATUS: OFFICIAL
QUALCOM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 2
and displays the yellow triangle error and says: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please use Software repair Assistant & try again.
I tried to use Samsung Kies which has an emergency firmware tool but my device will not connect and become recognized by the program.
This is pretty much where I'm stuck.
Keep reading if you need additional info.
Steps leading up to problem:
I was able to Root the device succesfully
I then downloaded the latest CM11 package (cm-11-20140217-NIGHTLY-d2vzw.zip) and Gapps
I also downloaded the TWRP recovery img (openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-d2vzw.img)
Once I had these downloaded I got the app [ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool
I opened the app and tried to do a backup but I'm pretty sure it failed, or at least it said it failed. I couldn't find out how to check, but was not worried since I have already backed up my important files to the verizon cloud.
On the app I went to recover using other file and found the TWRP recovery img I downloaded.
From here I booted into recovery manually, but it did not bring up the TEAMWIN screen for TWRP like I've seen in other video tutorials so I rebooted into normal mode went to the Rashr app again and followed the prompt to do a Recovery boot using the TWRP img.
THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEMS BEGAN:
It began to lead into recovery mode but it gave a message that said something along the lines that I have tried installing a custom OS and to take my phone to the nearest verizon store.
I turned it off and tried to boot back normally but got the same error.
I tried to boot into Download mode and was successful! So I thought yaay!
Read a tutorial to reload a stock version of android here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2586319
I followed all the steps but when i got to 7. which said You should see your phone under ID:COM (you should also see it has been added in message) I was not seeing my phone there. I figured it may be OK since I was able to install the drivers so that meant the USB was working so I went ahead and ran Odin to recover Jelly Bean 4.3 onto the device.
My thoughts and guesses as to what the problem is:
I think that it may be because I was already running 4.4.2 and/ or didn't have the proper bootloader when I tried to do the TWRP recovery.
Am I on the right track? Thanks for any help!
You're not bricked if you can still get into Download mode. First of all the Verizon S3 on 4.3 or later has a locked bootloader - you can't install a custom recovery, and only TouchWiz based ROMs are supported using Safestrap. In order to get back up and running you need to see this thread and use the Verizon Utility, or use the Odin method with a stock 4.4.2 ROM seeing as you're on 4.4.2. However I'm surprised your computer doesn't recognize your phone, that almost sounds like more of a drivers issue than anything if your phone still gets into Odin mode. As cliche as it sounds - have you tried rebooting? It may help with a driver issue.

Help softbricked or hardbricked device?

Follow the instructions from this post. Since you are soft bricked at the moment, you'll need to start at step 4. If you have an extSD in your phone, you might want to pull it until after you're up and running because the "Android" folder from Kitkat needs to be deleted and rebuilt for Lollipop.
That's what I tryed first but it didn't work,
First step.... flash SM-G900P_OA6_FullRestore.
(on boot i have samsung galaxy s5 screen with blue letters at the top saying recovery booting and it loops.)

(on boot i have samsung galaxy s5 screen with blue letters at the top saying recovery booting and it loops.)
then i tryed SM-G900P_OA6_FullRestore. again but still no luck im out of ideas

Are you using the wrong terminology? You have to use Odin and a PC to install the .tar. Also, the first boot into Lollipop can take about 20 minutes. You have to be patient. I see you posting in different threads and you seem to be digging deeper into a hole.
Are you using Odin and starting by downloading (to PC) the file in step #4? Then follow the remaining steps "exactly". Re-read those instructions and if you not already downloaded the needed files, do that first.

Try this: Do a battery pull, then put the phone in Download mode, hook up to PC and then open Odin and then Odin custom recovery, either twrp or Philz. Uncheck auto reboot in odin and once it passes, pull the battery, unplug and boot into recovery. Also, you might update Odin, there's a link to Odin 3.10.0 in my post. Let's see if we can get that far and go from there.

Which recovery tar did you Odin? You pulled the battery after Odin said PASS, then unplugged the phone, put battery back in and immediately tried to get into recovery? If so, I'm stumped.

I saw your post count, I knew you knew what you're doing, just wanted to double check everything. Sorry, I'm out of ideas. I did ask @tdunham to take a look at this thread, if he has some other ideas, but he's offline right now. Hopefully he'll check in later.
What about flashing back to an older version of android? Full tar flash.
---------- Post added at 12:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 AM ----------
Like ne5, and nothing else, just see if you can get stock to boot, no messing around trying to flash recovery.
This is RWillco12's NE5 stock.. Have the phone in download mode and run the .exe
Thanks TD.

I tryied ni3 already
but as far as i know you cant downgrade the bootloader.
if i could flash just the bootloader for ota6 maybe that would help.
i will try downloading ne5 now but my last rom was running a nkd modem.
im going to try and flash G900P_NKD_FullRestore.tar in odin if that dont work ill try ne5
and will report back shortly.
well nkd full restore boots up to
unknowen error!
wait..
done!
udc start.
power reset or
unknown
upload mode.
this is the way i got it back from retech after they replaced my bezel and digitlizer and screen
i never had an issue with anything software wize before that.
Have you tried flashing the phone without any sim cards inserted including the sprint card? You are flashing from a powered off state right? You know it wont work unless phone is powered off before going into download mode.
As a last resort attached is the pit file for the 16gb G900P. Unzip and put it into the pit section of odin and flash the stock firmware again. It will repartition the entire phone when it flashes the stock image.

SM-A750FN (Sam. a7 2018) TWRP not loading

Hello, my problem is that I flash "Twrp_3.2.3-1_a750.tar" with ODIN in order to try and root my SM-A750FN device.
After I flash it and ODIN sais PASS, I get out of download mode and immediatly enter recovery mode. At that point the teamwin logo flashes on the screen and then the phone shuts down. The phone boots up again, tries to go into recovery mode again at which point it goes into a kind of bootloop to teamwin logo and after a few tries it just stays closed, doesnt take anymore commands (dl, recovery, etc.) and starts to heat up like he is still bootlooping just doesnt show on the screen. I let the battery drain, i go into download mode and install stock firmware. I know long story.
SHORT STORY: SM-A750FN wont go into TWRP recovery, when i try to go to recovery mode it bootloops to TWRP logo. I would like to solve this in order to root it.
I specify that i have changed the firmware(rom) on the device, the original one worked with TWRP, I tried the latest firmware I could find for two separete regions and both have the same behavior.
Thanks in advance!
Re-flash the original ROM to get rid off of the failed TWRP installation.
Hello, thanks for the answear. Do you have any idea where to get the original rom from? I dont have it anymore as i din't make a back-up before flashing the ones that i got from the internet. I already tried to flash 2 stock roms from the internet and they dont seem to work with twrp.
Request it from OEM / Carrier.
BTW: It's NOT the installed ROM that doesn't work with TWRP but it's TWRP that doesn't work with installed ROM. Take note that TWRP rewrites portions of installed ROM.
I see, so I should request it from Samsung? Also thanks for you answears, i think i'll try atleast one older ROM for my phone, maybe TWRP will work with that. Thanks!
