hi all,
sprint samsung galaxy s5, SM-G900P user. turn on phone, get a "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." error. here's what the rest of the screen says:

this error came about as i was trying to install the custom ROM MOAR here. didnt know that 5.0 android version = having OA6 so i was trying to install that per the thread's instructions. so that messed up somehow and i get the above error. download mode works, recovery mode does not.
tried a number of solutions, including the Kies thing, said that my device was not supported. also tried flashing OA6 stock firmware i believe? not too familiar w the shorthand, just got this phone yesterday. i upgraded the phone when i got it so i am 99% sure it's on 5.0, and i read that this error can be received by trying to downgrade back to an earlier android version / firmware, but as far as i know i've been trying to flash the stock 5.0 firmware. whenever i tried Odin'ing the firmware, i get a fused 2 > binary 1 error. i am downloading earlier firmwares to try to Odin those and see if it helps but I'm really at a loss here. i read that as long as download mode still works there is hope left for me and I'm hoping that's true. please help me at all if you can.

I suspect your phone has been updated to the new build ending in OD3. What that means is that you can not downgrade the firmware. I have read of people successfully installing MOAR via custom recovery but there is no need to downgrade the firmware to OA6. If you can still get into Download Mode, you "may" be able to use Odin (not Kies) and install a custom recovery such as TWRP or Philz and immediately boot into in to Recovery. You will need to copy the MOAR installer to an extSD card prior to doing this. Make sure to read the OP's for both MOAR and the MOAR FAQ where you'll find links to everything you need.

i flashed the latest version of TWWP and had auto-reboot enabled, and my phone booted into the stock ROM. do you think i should still try to install MOAR or just leave my phone alone? im not new to ROMs in general, i came from a heavily messed with S3, but this problem kinda freaked me out. also, my phone is indeed on OD3. thank you so much for your help!
edit: also, can i still install MOAR if i am on OD3?

Yes you can, just don't try to download the bootloader. See if you can get into TWRP, it may have gotten over written by stock. If it did, use Odin to reinstall twrp but turn off auto reboot in Odin and immediately go into twrp manually. Make sure you have MOAR installer on your phone beforehand.

Hey guys,
I was trying to downgrade through Odin 3.10 from lollipop to Kit Kat and when System4 was being pushed Odin failed and I received a message that said sys rev check fails : refer 2 > Binary 1 and emergency firmware recovery now shows when I restart my phone. I have tried to use Kies 3 to recover my firmware but it fails with
sw rev check fail: [aboot]Fused 2 > Binary 1
[1]eMMC write fail: ABOOT
what can I do to fix this?
Reflash stock md5 from sammobile

I've tried using Odin and flashing the AP file of both N915AUCU1BOC6 and N915AUCU1ANK2 and that does not seem to work at all. Plus kies is still not helping
okay will try that tomorrow, download takes a few hours ...
thanks
worked, everything is back to normal. thanks
Samsung closed the backdoor to being able to completely retrograde all the way back to the first original factory firmware that came preinstalled on the Edge (ANY OF THEM) if you took the update from 4.4.4 or 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 then you're S.O.L. on getting back to 4.4.4 as 5.1.1 patched any eligible way to fully revert to the earliest factory rom version....
I found this out the hard way when I played around for roughly 48hr's trying to figure out how to get a LP Edge back down to KK only way possible was to downgrade was to get on LP load custom recovery flash custom KK rom and then flash a KK supported kernel, if I didn't flash the kernel it'd be super sticky bugworthy lag almost none of the function switches were working properly, data wasn't connecting correctly and there was no way of turning on wifi at all really without a supported KK Kernel then all the bugs and stickiness of the rom and switches went right away.
I flashed twrp and booted into stock system and started getting a message saying "only officially released binaries are allowed to be flashed".
I cannot boot into system and whenever I try to flash back to stock 'CRAP' firmware I get a message saying Secure Check Fail : (CM)
PLEASE HELP!
I am new and read that you cannot flash backwards. I was on CRD7 or some crap and tried flashing back to CRAP. Once I downloaded a CRD7 rom and flashed it using Odin 3.13 my problem was solved, but now I have to wait another 7 days to try flashing twrp again so I can get root back. I don't understand why I didn't have this 'only official binaries' and RMM state problem the first time I flashed twrp and was able to root without problems but that was on the CRAP firmware maybe that's why...
My s6 is stuck in bootloop , all stock, don't even have have debugging enabled. Wanted to try flashing the stock firmware in recovery but is there anywhere to download without paying for a normal speed download? Any other suggestions? Thanks
I was running on Superman rom(superstock kernel)
i tried to reboot while suddenly couldnt do so coz custom binary frp was locked.
I tried to flash stock firmware(did not download it from Sammobile and it was a nougat firmware)FAILED
Note: Rooted the phone months ago when it was on oreo
What could be the reason for the fail? is it because I tried to install a older firmware?
Please reply at the earliest
Thanks in advance!
Oreo firmware seems to be detecting custom firmware and would FRP locked the bootloader and the only way to fix it is to get to download mode and flash stock firmware with odin.
