SM-G920W8 Help! - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, Im in need of some expert help.. So basically I let a friend root my phone and install twrp, and all went well until he flashed Xposed. He wasn't aware that I had installed the marshmallow update. After he flashed xposed the phone wouldn't boot so he tried to flash the stock 6.0.1 ROM back from Sam mobile with no luck. Apparently it gets stuck in Odin when trying to flash the CM.bin and the sboot.bin files. I was able to flash the system and modem files on to get it to boot. when checking the phone im not seeing any IMEI as it says Unknown. Ive tried just the modem file and nadda.. any help would be appreciated. Also My phone detects now as a SM-G920F and not as it should SM-G920W8 Canadian version.
Update. Ive installed the Xtresto Lite through TWRP and it installed fine except it still detects the phone now as a SM-G920F and ive still got no modem working.

Did you flash 920f modem?. Flash back to stock with odin or smart switch. Odin is a bit fussy though. Best us smart swith. It will do everything. You just have to enter model number and s.n. of the phone.

[Q] Plz Help!! Firmware upgrade encountered an issue..

Sprint Edge with stock lollipop. I tried to root using odin, not sure what happened. Im an idiot, Im leaving for work in 3 hours i cant get my phone going again. When i try and use Kies it asks for a code which i dont have. Can someone give me the correct CF-Auto-Root file??? PLZ help im lost in a sea of information!
Do one thing flash twrp recovery and then u will be able to boot normally..for rooting install su.zip using twrp recovery
Do you have the stock firmware? Get it and Odin to get you going again.
can anyone help me downgrade my note edge n915p from lollipop to kitkat, i tried flashing thru odin but it failed showing error, i want to unlock downgrading the firmware to kitkat...
so it looks like the only place i can find the stock firmware is SAMMOBILE?
Ok i got it! I flashed recovery as advised
All good?

Bricked S6?

I flashed 5.1.1 using via odin 3.10 (no errors etc.) now my phone stuck at Powered by Android screen. I tried to reflash the firmware many times but still the same thing.
Before flashing 5.1.1 my phone was running Looper firmware. I did modify the build.prop (ro.securitystorage = false). Does this cause the issue?
When i get into recovery mode i see this yellow text
"dm-verity verification failed...
Need to check DRK first..."
Please help me to revive this phone. Thank you
I think the 5.1.1 update is just for T Mobile SM-G920T. Try flashing 5.0.2 for 920F if your device is international.
i posted it in a wrong forum. My phone is SM-G920T
Are you flashing the whole firmware/modem/bootloader and all the other things from the official tar file or using a modified tar file in order to be able to downgrade?
have to tried to flash back to stock 5.0.2???

Hey there. My devices (G920A) was showing IMEI null and Baseband Unknown. It was already G920AUCU3BOI2. I flashed it using this firmware => http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s6/general/stock-odin-tar-files-g920aucu3boi2-t3213306 (Which is the same Firmware as the previous I believe.) Odin had no errors, and the phone rebooted. But it couldnt pass the Samsung logo (waited for 20 min, nothing) Factory reseted it with no luck. Flashed only BL and AP with odin - still no luck. How can I solve this PITA problem? Thank u in advance.

"debranding" the g920f with odin dont work

hello guys,
yesterday i bought a galaxy s6 (g920f). it got the 1&1 branding but its simlock free. i just read about, that i can use this fw G920FXXU1AOE3_G920FDBT1AODQ_G920FXXU1AOE3_HOME.tar (5.02), flash it with odin, after that a wipe and than update to 5.1.1 with smartswitch. than i got a complete debranded dbt firmware.
ok, thought it would be easy ;P - a ran in conflicts now. odin got errors on flashing. every time it failed flashing. i read about the "hidden.img". i should extract the firmwarefile with 7zip, delete the hidden.img and after that i have to make a new .tar (not tar.md5, cause i will get md5 errors in odin, already tested ) - still fail on flashing....
than i found a pit file, but i dont know how to handle that. i never done that and dont know, whats happening when im flashing it and i dont even know which i have to download.
here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/g920f-pit-file-banded-firmwares-t3118459
hope someone can help me.
best regards taker-`
//edit: meanwhile i triggert knox, so i tried to flash twpr and try to flash the dbt 5.1.1 firmware with the recovery....recoveryflashing also failed - why?
Are you using the official Samsung cable? Odin is very picky about usb cables. How many times did you try? I recently unrooted using Odin, and the first time it failed as well for no reason. I just reconnected the usb cable and tried again, then it worked.
i used the original cable, but i also tried a original cable from a galaxy s5 and s4. same error all the time.
i flashed my s5 with the same cable, same odin version...i want it on stock firmware, cause i sold it. that worked well, but with the s6, it dont work.
Flash this stock 5.1.1 ROM via odin to debrand your G920F.

sw rev check fail device 4 binary 3 on galaxy s6

Hello!! I have one galaxy s6 (sm-g920f) and i try to restore it back to stock but every time i am trying to flash it via odin i am getting this error:sw rev check fail device 4 binary 3.. i have tried with full rom( AP,BL,CP,CSC) with and without pit file and with the rom just with the ap and nothing..i have also tried to flash with kies and smart swich and i am getting the same error... i have done all the wipes from the recovery (twrp) and still nothing.. only if i try to flash a custom rom from twrp will boot...now i am downloading the firmware of my device according to my serial number to flash it.. i also tried the method to flash like if you get sboot.bin error..
Can anyone help me please??:fingers-crossed:
i just flashed it with a full rom but without the bootloader(only ap,csc,modem) and it works!!!
now the problem is that the bootloader is another version from the rom, i cannot see any version of modem, the imei and the product code are blank... i checked them with the phone info app.. now i am downloading the rom with the baseband that shows me the phone info that i have... i also noticed that if i flash a rom which is one file or a rom that is full (bootloader,ap,modem,csc) i am getting error at cm.bin which is on bootloader.. that's why i can install a full rom but without the bootloader file...
Anyone????
i am always getting error at the cm.bin on odin...
i solved my problem by flashing the full stock rom according to the bootloader which was stucked in my phone

HOW DID YOU FLASH IT CAN YOU PLEASE ELABORATE. I have G920P running 6.0.1 and having the same issue while flashing 5.1.1
Cannot downgrade from 6.0.1 to 5.1.1.
SM-G920F, bought with Android 6.0.1. Phone Info says the phone is manufactured in 2016.11.15. Tried flashing same region Android 5.1.1 via Odin and got the "SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 4, BINARY: 3". Managed to reflash 6.0. Is it possible that the newest 6.0.1 (G920FXXS4DPJ2_G920FOXX4DPH1) won't let downgrade?
You can't downgrade the bootloader version. And since the bootloader it's changed at almost every update, you will only be able to install the latest software version for your country.
If all fails, try emergency software recovery from SmartSwitch

I used the XEF OCT G920FXXS4DPJ2 Modem+Bootloader which i found on here which has given me a working ish Android phone, the touch screen is flipped on a vertical axis so I am looking to put something else over the top of everything to get it working properly again!

SM-G930F SW REV Check fail device 2 binary 1

Hey guys! I have a problem. I have flashed on my Galaxy S7 (Exynos version) the galaxy Note Fan Edition Port rom a couple of weeks ago, but now I flashed the latest stock firmware from Sammobile via odin and it always fails at the bootloader. I don't know why? I searched for many hours for a solution, but nothing works.... I hope somebody could help me
Here is the link for the note fan edition rom: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7...-galaxy-note-fan-edition-port-vol1-0-t3633626
OEM unlock on?
Could also be that the latest bootloader prevents rolling back, so if you're trying to go from a newer bootloader to an older one it won't let you. You can probably just exclude the BL file and be fine.
Is that Fan Edition ROM you flashed not a S7 Edge rom made to work on the S7..! Maybe your phone shows up as a G935 now?
I have flashed android 8.0 manually from sammobile via odin and it got stuck on emergency recovery and I somehow got it into the download mode and every time I want to flash my stock firmware it says device 2 binary 1... I also flashed twrp recovery and wiped everything (system, data....) and tried again and it always fails in odin and says device 2 binary 1.. Im trying to find solution but everytime it fails. PLEASE HELP ME

Samething happened to me. I did the same thing u did but nothing worked.
Can someone plz help us to get odin download work again.
you should go for latest rom. download from here: https://samsung-firmware.org/model/SM-G930F/region/BTU/
You will be satisfy with this.
Hi! Same error but different situation.
I was on the latest firmware 8.0 ITV, I wanted to downgrade to nougat, so I downloaded the first 7.0 firmware BTU (the one that was the best for my S7).
I opened all the firmware files on odin 3.13.1 and I started the procedure but at a certain point everything stopped, on odin the message "failed" appeared and on the phone the message "sw rev check fail (bootloader) device 2 binary 1".
I tried with a different version of odin but the message remains the same, I also tried without flashing the BL file but nothing ... In the end I had to flash again the latest firmware oreo ITV and no errors appeared, but I find myself at the starting point
specific that my S7 has never had modding operations, the knox counter is perfectly at 0x0, I have always used only original firmware and never had problems with odin.
How can I downgrade without having in that error?
Hi just flash this version of latest nougat G930FXXS2DRDI, this is binary 2 firmware (XEO)
