Had a similar issue yesterday when I tried to update my rooted 5.0.2 to an official 5.1.1. I have used ODIN many times before since SGS3, and back then you were able to mix your system image from other regions, but that apparantly has been locked down by Samsung. Now you can only update an official version of the rom if it exactly matches your existing region. Because you updated your SK international S6 and tried a region set rom from Czech it most likely failed towards the very end of flash with "FAIL".
Your options are: 1) you download the 5.1.1 version for your region in ODIN format from SAMMobile or 2) you use Smart Switch and let it do it for you - in this case you will need to know the SN of your phone as it is used for verification.
Samsung has locked down the serial number with the regions that come with it. So if you have to install, you should update it or use same region odin file. There is a way to break this chain if you are rooted and some additional files are being used in the odin but I am not completely sure as I have not tried it yet. But there are chances that you may void your warranty if you try that or the worse hard brick as it can sometimes change your serial number if not used properly. but I wouldn recommend that. I'll let you know once I understand the usage correctly.
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
Ok so my phone is a bit weird when it was updating the software something happened while updating and it crashed.. so when I tried installing the latest Indian firmware on it with odin it wouldn't except.. tried a bunch of versions but non worked finally I got one of the russian firmware to install.. just wanted to know why my phone won't accept the Indian firmware..
P.s I bought the phone in mumbai

by way can you tell me which Russian firmware you used to flashing ? and phone is alive again with that firmware ?
Hi. First thing's first- I've purchased a Samsung Galaxy J7 (2016) with model SM-J710FN (as written on the back of the phone) variant from France, and as expected, it would have a French (or German) firmware installed (I'm not sure about that). I want to change over to the Indian firmware and I've been trying for a very long time, but I can't get anything. I've done the basics, such as trying to flash the Indian firmware for the correct with ODIN, but every time, an error occurs, saying, "secure check fail" on ODIN. I've also learnt that there is also something as an SSP variant of the device. Can someone please enlighten me on that and give me a link to a proper Indian firmware I can use? Thanks, much appreciated!
Just a quick note: My phone IS still under warranty, I'm not interested in loosing that.
Info about the phone:
Android version: 6.0.1
Baseband version: J710FXXU3AQD2
Build Number: MMB29K.J710FXXS3AQD1

send me an email and I will send link to download the stock firmware with 4 files. first try all 4 files with latest Odin. if that does not work then try AP and CSC only. XDA do not allow me to write link here because I am junior

Your quick response will be highly appreciated, thanks.
Looks like your model is N920V, Verizon model with a custom rom on it. You should be able to flash verizon firmware without issue
but how could he have a custom Rom on a verizon model???

I don't think it is a custom rom, I think It is a modified Stock Verizon Rom. Sm N920f doesn't exist as an original model as Samsung didn't do an European version of the Note5, phone info also said that is not refurbish. if you look at the phone details as I earlier posted you will see a mixup of Both N920f and N920v, I am just looking to hear from someone who as done it before, I don't want to brick this phone, I just got it.
same problem
i have same problem when i check about on devices its show N920F but when i check it using Phone Info Samsung it show N920V
if i flash it using N920V firmware, it will lock network to verizon? i use indonesian sim on it now.
if that locked to verizon how to unlock it again like now i used
Thanks for your help
I took a risk and flashed stock nougat (i found link on xdadevelopers website) on my so called n920f. Actually phone is not N920F, firmware was modifed to remove the branding. Its actually N920V.
To conclude, I flashed nougat 7.0 and its working perfectly, without any issue. I was worried regarding carrier locking after flashing the stock nougat, but it didn't as verizone says they don't lock LTE phones.

sm 920v became sm 920f
im from philippines. i tried my note 5 to update but stock in lollipop then i found out that its from verizon the real model is sm 920v and it was a custom rom of sm 920f. i read some replies here and im waiting for if i could flash nougat rom in sm 920v since its verizon does it can access the network signal
hope someone could help me this.
From N920F to N920V just download and install "Samsung Smart Switch" software on your PC, open the application and connect your phone to PC, click "MORE" , choose "Emergency Software Recovery & Initialization" then follow the instruction. It will reset to factory setting and upgrade the latest firmware (Nougat 7.0). The firmware is carrier unlock.

Yes, Smart Switch will do an OTA update automatically, no need ODIN because your phone has reset to normal factory setting with phone model N920V, no more N920F.
sm 920v became sm 920f
