[Q] galaxy note 2 and odin3

Hi all
I have the GT-N7105T (Samsung Galaxy Note 2 - Telstra variant) and I just recently flashed a Galaxy Note 2 international firmware from Hong Kong via Odin3.
When I try to flash back the stock firmware that came with the phone, it fails. So my question is, How do I reinstall the stock firmware and get it back to the Telstra firmware via odin3?
To help out, odin3 fails just after sboot.bin and I am aware that has something to do with the bootloader. But I would much rather get help from experienced people before I go and possibly turn my phone into an expensive brick
I guess I couldn't wait for the android 4.3 update but I wish to return back to android 4.1.2.
Any help would be extremely appreciated

Flashing firmware to Galaxy S6!

Hi all
I have a Sim free Galaxy S6 running Android 6.0.1 BTU, I want to flash it with the Three firmware so I can use VOLTE and the 800mhz LTE. Every time I try to flash with Three firmware using odin I just get a fail.
Infact I was using Android 5.1 BTU and tried to flash Three 6.0 firmware using odin and that failed and soft bricked my phone, so I had to flash 6.0.1 BTU using odin, so I know I can flash my phone, it just doesn't seem to work with the Three firmware for some strange reason
Any help will be appreciated!
Edit: Just saw I posted this in general discussion :silly::silly: my apologies on that part

SM-G930V purchased in Australia

Hi All,
I have a moderate experience in flashing firmwares and modding my samsung devices over the years.
I have recently purchased an S7 which is unfortunately a SM-G930V model, i thought it would have been the SM0G930F which would have made life much easier.
I want to know if it is possible to get the original Australian firmware or even generic stock firmware on this device?
My issue is with the network settings where i have manually put in APN settings my match my carrier and 4G coverage in australia.
If not am i able to just flash a different baseband to this device preferably Australian?
I have read that flashing a different model firmware will soft brick the device, i just want some insight before i start breaking things, also what are my options.
Much appreciated, thanks, Will
You have the snapdragon s7, you can't flash the exynos 930f firmware on it, you can only flash the american firmware. You might have luck with the 930u unbranded firmware just do some research on it.
Thanks mate,
I'm going to flash this firmware using ODIN, do you know if it will be successful?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s7/how-to/xda-community-love-g930u-t3415875
not sure how to check my bootloader version etc
No clue, goto the verizon subforum and see if anyone flashed the 930u firmware on their 930v.
Just tried to flash the firmware to my phone and recieved an error, the phone is now stuck at download mode with error:
sw rev check fail : [system] fused 3 > binary 4
this means the bootloader won't accept the firmware?
LOL, guess ill try another firmware.. Any ideas?

Unsuccessful Unrooting of AT&T G930A using Kies or Samsung Switch

Hi all,
I successfully rooted my S7 from Nougat using the guide below:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-s7-edge/how-to/heres-how-rooted-nougat-s7-edge-g935t-t3567502
But performance seems to be suffering since then. I'd like to unroot back to stock, but:
1. Can't find a stock firmware image of G930A to use with Odin
2. The newest version of Samsung Switch no longer has the "Device Initialization" tab as shown in the guide here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QhJngOuLQ4
3. I've tried with Samsung Kies as well, which seems to not properly recognize my device serial number.
Has anyone had success in finding an older version of Switch or other methods of unrooting the G930A?
Hi, same problem. Did you ever solve this? Thanks!
You checked both sammobile.com and updato.com?
If so try G930U firmware since it's just the unbranded firmware for US phones, works on all of them.

I did actually solve this a few days ago to unroot my Galaxy S7 G930A.
I used:
Odin V3.12.3 Patched
G930U Firmware (AP, BL, CP, and CSC files) from Updato (https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=9CDE46F3EB8211E7A5F9FA163EE8F90B)
After doing this it honestly feels like I have a brand new phone. Huge performance jump compared to the rooted package.

Fold 2 flashing back to carrier.

Hello I've flash my fold 2 to Samsung oem firm. But I've notice allot of issue with the firm. I checked it was the August update and not September. I've downloaded the vzw firmware and I use Odin and it couldn't go back to vzw. I insert everything came with the firmware. Including userdata. It just stuck there for a really long time and then it just said failed. I'm using Odin 3.13 what could the issue be?
