Hello, today i've tried to root a Galaxy A7 (Android version 4.4.4) from a website which had a file for A700FD to root on odin
But it failed on <ID:0/004> cache.img.ext4, probably because this device is A700FQ, not A700FD. So now i can just enter the download mode, it says Firmware upgrade encountered an issue when i try to turn the phone on and i can't find a stock rom... What can i do?

Quick troubleshooting, some users reported to solve that error by flashing trough custom recovery.
Also, have you tried Kies?

My last guess is to use Kies to see if you can get back it working again.

Perhaps visit sammobile and download the firmware for your device and flash with Odin, if you can.

Sorry, I'm at a loss. Samsung is far from my specialty. Hopefully, someone else will have a suggestion. @N_psycho_PD_uh? Can you help here?
I will try this way
Download cf auto root for a700f since both got same cpu and flash it with odin in download mode.
Good luck.
Cheers!

My tab 2 wont upgrade to the latest firmware (which fixes the powering off issue). I have tried both ota and kies. Both will seemingly download the firmware but wont install. Ota gives me a cant upgrade error and kies downloads, decrypts, decompresses and then nothing. Samsung has no clue how to get upgrade installed. How do I fix this problem?

Firmware Update
I have been having the same issue and can tell you that even with a factory reset that it doesn't help either. At this time I don't want to root mine. Any ideas without root?

Guys, flashing stock ROM using Odin does NOT root the device, and does NOT require root to do it.

if you can flash another country's rom it won't be any problem
also if you choose top 10 countries in country column you can find the latest 4.2.2 for your tab 2 10.1

Hey so the new lollipop update came out for the s4 and I tried downloading it but it didnt work because I was rooted. I tried unrooting but it was the wrond file and after it would only launch in some weird mode where the device told me I need to update in kies. So I tried to update in kies but then it failed and said this (POSTED PICS OF WHAT IT SAYS BELOW). Please help I have no idea what to do. Is there any way I can factory reset my device?

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Could you tell us what variant of the S4 you have, i337,i9500, etc. You can't see it in the pics you posted. That'll help point you in the right direction. But in general you're going to have to flash the stock firmware in Odin.

Yeah but I cant seem to find the stock os for my device. Everyone I try fails and comes up with a 224,1440 error.
OP, try sammobile. com for stock firmware. You can also ask your question here where the experts on your device reside, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-verizon/help Also see this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-verizon

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. I'd flash the stock firmware in Odin and start over. You can find the stock firmware at sammobile.com.
Good luck!

Hello,
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
You cannot do that.You can only flash the firmware of your device on it.

Yes, I have tried that ROM & its Odin flashable
Can i flash this on the SM-S550TL?
Has anyone tried this on the SM-G550T1 model?
Will someone reupload the file for a better download link? Sammobile takes way to long
Really, the SM-G550T1/2 really needs Nougat at this point since it is only limited to the India model... I really like the new UI elements. Sad.
Or if someone is really good enough to make a Android Oreo Go edition custom ROM (since it really helps on storage) or a Lineage OS custom ROM. I wish i can make one but I'm not good at making ROM's.:crying:
Edit: I was thinking of installing that same rom OP described. Will it work for my T1? Someone needs to test this before i can proceed. Problem is i don't know if it will brick my phone because it was made for Indian devices running that version.
The current device i have is as follows:
Galaxy On5 SM-G550T1 (T-Mobile)
Currently on 6.0.1
Rooted with Magisk
OEM Unlock set to ON
TWRP
I dont know also, but do i need to have my phone network "unlocked" to switch official samsung roms? I prefer sticking to T-Mobile...
Edit #2: Tried installing that firmware file, it wont let me because of a locked bootloader. I used Odin (latest) but all i get is a "SECURE CHECK FAIL: (BOOTLOADER)" error.
^tl;dr, it wont install on a US variant.

You can use sam frimware tool to download the ROM with no bandwidth cap issues. Search XDA for the tool
