Don't panic. (I've been trying out new ROMs this week, and I must have bricked my phone at least a dozen times. Boring, waste of time, not a problem, though. I had the long blue light about 3 times.)
Make sure you have the 4.4.2 for the AT&T S5, not some other model S5. Boot to download and flash it again. SamMobile Firmwares has 4.4.2 for the phone. Or I'm sure you can find it on the AT&T S5 forum at XDA Forums.
i did all of the above like using odin or wiping data but nothing worked i think because the reactivation lock is on
is there anyway to turn off reactivation lock so i can flash stock firmware with no problems :crying::crying:

I have a samsung galaxy s4 I337. I have tried the over the air update several times but it always stops at 27 percent and restarts my phone. Ive wiped all cache, factory reset my phone and still nothing. It is stuck on android 4.4.2 and I would like to update it to lolipop. I know that at&t has released lollipop to their samsung galaxy s4s, but I cant even get passed 4.4.2. I am decent with phones but know nothing about flashing. Can someone please give me a very detailed, step by step process on how to get lollipop on my phone? Also, is it possible to do it and not lose data? I have my things backed up but wanna make sure.
Thank you.

Recently I have installed cyanogen 12 on my samsung galaxy note 2 gt n7100 and I have been using it for almost 2 months. It was fine until when I turned it on. WIth no reason it started to act like a bricked phone and did the turning on and repeating thing. What is weird is that when it is plugged into a charger this doesn't happen. I have tried to flash the stock firmware but it didn't seem to fix it. Can anyone help me fix this brick please.

My phone one is on stock firmware finally. In download mode it confirms that. It also confirms that current binary is Samsung Official. Do I need to worry for my phone getting bricked doing a complete software reflash in a Samsung Repair Facility? I'm asking because the phone says custom in about phone and I do know that it can mean just that the phone had more images flashed to it. I rooted with Kingroot about a month ago and since then I have been trying to get my phone like how it comes fresh out of the box. I have been going crazy since then and I'm posting this question now being that I will be able to visit one of Samsung's Repair Facility's in a few days. It's the Grand Prime with model # SM-G5030AZ. Please can you fellows who know much more than me help me with my dilemma. Thank you.
About another stock firmware
I don't have one more is it available anywhere and believe me I did the research. I think your first option is something I'll give a try but if it doesn't work I'll try the last one. Thank you very much for your time as it is much appreciated.

Can I restore an AT&T Samsung s6 that got corrupt during update and also deleted IMEI
I have a Samsung galaxy s6 that is less than 3 months old. When the newest firmware update tried to install my phone would not reboot. I have now gotten it to boot to emergency or safe mode. I have tried doing all resets, wipe cache. The IMEI is also deleted. Any ideas on what I can do to fix this issue? I am not having good luck with AT&T doing anything to help.
