What are my option now can someone please guide me please.
What was the error or fail message from Odin?
If it's taking you to the firmware upgrade failure screen, try downloading Kies 3 (I can't post the link so just Google it). It should be able to restore your firmware with no problem. When you open the software, connect your device with the cable that came with your phone. Then go under tools and select emergency firmware recovery. Now that it's bricked you can't, but for future reference whenever it gets stuck at one of those screens, pull the battery out for a minute, boot into recovery and wipe cache. Works every time. You just need to give it a minute to boot after the cache wipe, especially if you're using a deodexed stock ROM. For now, just use Kies, but if you plan to follow the same steps after restoration, always wipe cache and pull the battery after a flash

I've lurked for an hour and haven't found an actual fix.
So finally wasn't waiting for JB OTA,
Went through and used stock.vzw_root66.tar via Odin
Then used CWM to flash recovery and backup
Tried flashing to Liquid-JB-v2.0-RC3-d2vzw.zip with chache and data wipes.
Realized i missed the unlock boot loader (If i fix a link to unlocker app would be helpful)
Now i'm stuck at the unauthorized screen
Odin will bring up ID:COM, when flashing stock.vzw_root66.tar it pauses at SetupConnection and then ends process with Cant open Serial(COM) port.
with bionic i had R3R3L3AS3D ROOT (similar) to flash all my soft brick. anything similar to use here?
and if i get a fix. a worthy ROM will be appreciated.

Odin back to Stock (see Droidstyle's Guide it's at the bottom of the first post). Make sure to grab the correct driver and Odin version, don't use a USB3.0 port.
Root again with DebugFS (same here can be found in Driodstyle's Guide) or use the prerooted Odin.
Go to Rootswiki and grab version 1.2 of EZ-Unlock (Version 1.4 in the market is broken) and unlock your bootloader again. Get EZ Recovery from the Play Store and flash CWM.
now flash whatever ROM you like...
Hello,
I used to have safestrap on this phone. The phone did recieve the OTA 4.3 update.
I went into saftestrap recovery and chose to wipe data and cache... because I wanted to delete all user data from the phone.
Now the phone wont boot. it freezes at the galaxy logo upon boot.
I can access recovery, and download mode.
SO can I go into download mode and flash the stock 4.3 firmware via ODIN?? if so Im having a hard time getting this file from http://samsung-updates.com/details/30088/Galaxy_S_3_Verizon/SCH-I535/VZW/I535VRUDNE1.html
Eidt: I did find the i535vrudne1 download at a different site. So would it be safe to push this via Odin?
Edit: I downloaded the firmware here http://stockroms.net/file/GalaxyS3/SGH-I535/4.4.2/I535VRUDNE1_I535VZWDNE1_VZW.zip
I pushed it via ODIN, and I'm all good. The phone is up and running stock firmware
Thanks for posting another site for the download the first one was taking forever!!!
I am having some serious troubles with upgrading my Galaxy Note 4 SM-910P (Sprint). All was well in rooting, un-rooting, etc... I have the original 4.4.4 and the new 5.0 backed up and now I can't use anything other than the firmware the original firmware package through Odin. The problem started when I installed the [ROM]ViSiON-X N4 SPR 5.0.1 [Android L 5.0][N910PVPU1BOB7-R1][03-11-15]. It installed fine but when ever I was not watching it a problem occurred such as getting locked out of ny ext SD, or just plain un-rooting itself. It finally came down to it just kicked my device into download mode and would not reboot. I did used chains Odin root method and installed TWRP, which I can still do but can not flash or restore from TWRP or CWM recovery. It will take the firmware package fine and download the 5.0 update but always gets stopped from any other upgrade at recovery be it stock or custom. I have even used Kies to try and upgrade a few time. It will upgrade from NK1 to NK2 but still will not upgrade anything else past recovery. Every time I reboot I lose my WIFI password. After every boot it takes a minute for any network to be able to reach the device. It is paused until I re enter my WiFi password then it will say that Android is done upgrading and there is a toast message that says "device is set to factory mode some items won't work on this mode set device to user mode". Can someone please tell me how to set my device to user mode or erase what ever is lockled in my device between download and recovery. The issue I described with the device wanting to stay in download mode and how to handle it is described her http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59372208&postcount=3 but as I mentioned I can't get passed anything that is not firmware through Odin. If I had to be locked in one version forever I would have preferred it be 5.0
I figured it out

I fianlly figured out the deal with TWRP not flashing.
The change between file systems is what TWRP won't flash.
To flash into the new, the old, or back up property check the file type.
Ext 2, Ext 4, F2FS, etc ...
To get recovery to load install from odin with auto boot disabled, remove battery, than vol + - menu and power.
the steps below..
1. Power off (complete) boot to download.
2. Load Odin, uncheck auto reboot, PDA TWRP. after it installs pull battery to exit.
3. Boot to recovery - wipe- advanced wipe -Repairor Change File System - Check System (go thruough each)
4. Repair and change each to the file type you want to flash
5. repair and or change the files for the zip you are going to flash
6. you have done all the rest before ....
Issue resolved, thread closed, thanks.
I tried rooting my note 5 sprint but got stuck in a bootloop but was able to flash the marshmalllow stock rom back on the phone. I am stuck in a bootloop again except this time odin is not responding to the stock rom. I tried odin 3.10 and 3.09 with the same result. I tried different usb ports and nothing. I can't even get the file for the stock rom to show up in the AP box. Does anyone know how to fix this? Also, can I flash lollipop back on to the phone instead of marshmallow? Thanks.

So you are able to boot back into download mode? How about boot to recovery?
I have the same problem. I have a sprint galaxy note 5 with android 6.0.1 installed. While trying to perform a root using twrp, I completely wiped everything out. Is there any way I can go back to the stock rom from here? I can still use odin and and I have finally mananged to put the stock recovery back on by using either "CF-Auto-Root-nobleltespr-nobleltespr-smn920p" md5 file or "N920PVPU1AOGD_N920PSPT1AOGD_SPR----STOCK+TARBALL" md5 file. But from here Im at a dead end. I tried to do a "wipe data/factory reset" from the factory recovery but receive an error msg stating "dm-verity verification failed." Please help. Thanks
Also it appears when I press and hold only the power button, it takes me to the factory recovery screen.
My device has been bricked after attempting to root the device using Odin. (Samsung Galaxy S8+)
The device is stuck in a bootloop with the following accompanying error message in red on the boot screen:
"Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed"
Here is what happened:
I flashed TWRP using Prince Comsy Odin. (The only Odin that actually works on the s8+)
I then booted into the TWRP recovery.
I followed a set of instructions, clearing the Cash and wiping
I restarted once then booted back into TWRP using Vol-Up + Power + Bixby
I was preparing to install Magisk & "no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1" according to instructions to complete the root.
After installing "no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1" with TWRP, the system rebooted and i was stuck in a boot loop.
I then got the error message in the bootloop "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed"
Since then i have not been able to successfully re-flash TWRP.
I now cant enter TWRP recovery boot using Vol-Up + Power + Bixby anymore
The bootloop is about 2 seconds long and too short to enter TWRP recovery
I can enter download mode and thats all
I have gotten the EXACT official stock ROM for the galaxy s8+ in South Africa with the carrier, Vodacom. (XFV-G955FXXU4CRL4-20181228165540)
If i flash with any official Odin version, it either fails or doesnt do anything for hours...
If i flash any Official stock Rom using Prince Comsy Odin then i do get the whole process of flashing with stock firmware being successful with the result saying "PASS".
The phone then reboots and i am still stuck in the same loop saying "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed"
This is after countless times and hours and hours of reflashing successfully with Official stock rom
I still cant get back into TWRP to do any partitioning or formatting or anything
I really don't mind if i lose all of my data and format the phone but PLEASE can you help me get my phone to work again..."?
Do i need to wait 7 days for the official flash to work?
Is there a way to completely wipe my phone without requiring going into Recovery mode with TWRP? Since i cant get into that state anymore either because of the Error Knox block or because of the Loop being too fast.
Please, please, PLEASE....please help me get my phone to work again...
Sincerely,
I know that Odin 3.13.1 works on the s8+ G955F as I flashed the latest BTU stock yesterday so try that version. I had a similar problem with the G950F and after flashing the files I booted into recovery mode and did a data and cache wipe and the phone rebooted. Flashing a stock rom should have wiped TWRP from the phone.
Reflash your rom or a later one, don't forget to take the tick out of the auto reboot box in Odin, boot to recovery and wipe everything and hopefully you will be good to go. Rebooting on mine took around 35 mins or so when going back to stock.
