[q] samsung galaxy s3 root accidentyl updated help

I have a rooted android device samsung galaxy s3 and it was running fine and everything till one day it said to install an update. i accepted it and while it was updating all of a sudden it went to that black screen and says, " system software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone. Please turn off you phone and go to the nearest Verizon Wireless store for help." Then thats where i couldn't do anyting with my phone but go to download/ODIN MODE and rebooting system thing where you can reboot system. IM very new and i don't know much about rooting and the meanings of a lot of words like unlock bootloader. If i go to ODIN MODE it says
ODINE MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SCH-1535
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (1 Counts)
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Warranty bit: 1
BOOTLOADER RP SWREV:1
i think this doesn't look good. WHat should i do to make my phone be working again and not showing that black screen.
I already wiped all data and tried to do that StockROm thing on my computer ODIN and still nothing.
Is my bootloader locked? if so do i need to unlock it to make my phone work again? Thanks so much for your time
Same with mine I think it's called a bricked phone and think there is nothing we can do about it, hopefully someone has a solution
Might Work?

I dunno if this will work for you. But I had the same message and when I booted in Download mode I just hit Cancel then rebooted and it worked?
If you flashed cyanogenmod, that means you're bootloader is unlocked, which is a good thing.
Can you get into CWM or TWRP? I don't have a samsung so i don't know about ODIN (i presume it's like flashtools for Xperia).
For as long as your phone vibrates (or does pretty much anything when you boot it up) your phone is not hardbricked, which is also good .
Try getting into CWM, shut down your phone completely, wait 5 seconds, then do: Volume Down + Home + Power key . This will get you into bootloader state and try reflashing your old backup, a stock rom or cyanogenmod.
First time with these softbricks is always the most fun ^^. Been there done that, i thought i spend 250 euro's on a phone that was broken .
Btw. Always make a backup for these kind of situations.

You took the 4.3 update. You must now Odin to stock 4.3 to unbrick, do not Odin to any other (previous) version. There is a safe root method.
I do not think there is custom recovery and bootloader is now permalocked.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2270191 has a link to the odin file and the root method in post 2 or 3 i believe.
Ok how do i get it?

I just recently ODIN flashed the latest 4.3 stock firmware for my TMO GS3 and then attempted to roll back to 4.1.2. It didn't brick my device, but it didn't work either. I would simply fail to install. I was able to reflash, through ODIN, the 4.3 stock firmware (actually used the root66 version). Then I was able to ODIN flash CWM recovery and install Dandroid 5.1, which is also a 4.3 based ROM. All is well now. I guess I simply can't go back to any previous 4.3 ROMs now, and I'm not sure about any AOSP ROMs. I may give a try at some point to see.

[Completed] Galaxy Note 3 unroot error

Hey guys, I tried unrooting my Note 3 (no specific carrier) via the SuperSU app (full unroot).
My device didn't reboot and when I tapped the SuperSU icon, the app did not open and an error message came up.
I then restarted my device manually, afterwards the SuperSU app was gone but the device was still in a custom state according to settings.
Also the software update was not possible, it also said the device was still modified.
I then tried installing the SuperSU app again, but now it says "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!"
Please help guys, this is crap.
UPDATE: I made a complete reset and updated back to stock via Odin. Now it works fine and the status is back to official. Knox Warranty Void though^^ 0x1. Smooth!

[SM-G900W8] Galaxy S5 6.0.1 Chainfire auto root issue - Set Warranty Bit: Kernel

Hello,
I have a Galaxy S5 SM-G900W8, and have rooted it using the following link from auto root Chainfire:
https://download.chainfire.eu/406/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-kltecan-kltevl-smg900w8.zip"]https://download.chainfire.eu/406/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-kltecan-kltevl-smg900w8.zip
I tried two different software versions on the S5, first 5.0 and then 6.0.1. On 5.0, there is no issues and the device is auto rooted and all goes well. When I upgrade to 6.0.1, it appears that the phone is rooted, but then I get this message "Set Warranty Bit: Kernel" in the top left corner of the screen on every boot-up. Please note that the phone does work on 6.0.1 with auto root, but it has this annoying message on every boot-up.
I did notice that some of the installation guides talk about toggling the "oem unlocking" in developer options, which I have found my phone doesn't have on version 5.0 or 6.0.1.
Does anyone know how to remove the "Set Warranty Bit: Kernel" after auto-rooting?
Any feedback is appreciated.

Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing - root

Hi everyone,
I tried to root my phone with this site. Version number was NRD.90M.G920FXXU6ERF5 so I took the first link, went to "CF-AUTO-ROOT" and disabled the Auto-wipe since my phone data isn't encrypted. When I reboot, I got "Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing". What did I do wrong? How could I root my smartphone?
Thanks a lot in advance.
whats ur android version is it 7.0 or 6.0.1 ?
each has it owns CF AUTROOT...
I gave version number so that you would know what I had...
I mean is it Nougat or Marshamallow
Look for G920FXXU6ERF5 on sammobile.
As I said, I gave exactly what people would need to help me"..."
