Hi all,
Having trouble with my G920F - had TWRP installed + root but have decided to go full stock again as it won't perform updates with modded recovery.
I tried using the Samfirm tool + Odin to download latest BTU FW but it fails every time on system.img. I have tried using 2 different versions of Odin but same result. I have tried flashing with PIT file, with PIT file plus re-partition option enabled but still the same fail. I have tried using smart switch but it downloads the file and then fails during initialisation - phone in download mode then reports SW mismatch.
Anyone have any ideas on what is wrong?
Ok, ignore me - I just tried a USB3 port instead of USB2 and it worked first time :|

i've tried this guide and some others on the net, downloading files over files, tried with odin3 v1.85 and v3.09.
putting every time the phone in download mode and flashing the .tar.md5 file when doing it without the pit file it says "use the default pit", attaching the pit it gives a "secure check fail: id 0x95" and one time it displays "partition table doesen't exist".
It would be nice if anyone could help me as soon as possible!!:good:
I think ur partition memory currepted .....
Hit thanks if i helped
i thought it too couse it can't be that it says "partition table doesen't exist", if you know how to fix it, it would be great
ok
did you downloaded the correct firmware from sammobile.com ???
What were you doing when you bricked your phone??
yes, i did, but it also didn't work i tried different versions but niether that worked.
I bricked my phone flashing through cwm the same rom (cm10.2 by vickig coolest) in order to reinstall the gapps which weren't working before.
Now i tried flashing cm10.2 by dirty developer and it says "e: can't open /sdcard/cm-10.2-20131216-DirtyDev-trebon.zip" if someone could give me a working backup (cwm 6.0.3.3) i could try to restore it.
Dude
While flashing stock firmware open odin and click on nandroid erase all
And then flash firmware
After reboot do a hard reset
Hope it works

Device: SM-920F
Build vers : 6.0.1
Status: stock kernel, no root
Issue: Can't flash SpacexKernel. Get error "<ID:0/005> Can't open the serial(COM) port."

I've done a search on XDA for this issue and I've found some with similar issues but no resolution. Example Here but this user was able to flash Space kernel.
So I'm trying to root my phone and than install TWRP recovery with the intention of flashing a custom rom. It is my understanding the 920F bootloader is unlocked by default so that should not be the issue. I'm following GalaxyS6Root guide. I downloaded the necessary files: SpaceXkernel, Odinv v3 3.10.6, TWRP 3.0 by Manh Ti. With my phone in download mode Odin recognizes my device cause the blue port (blue) lights up so I'm sure I have the right usb drivers. 'm stuck on the first step, trying to flash SpaceXkernel. I check AP, select the kernel, and hit start. Than I see error <ID:0/005> Can't open the serial(COM) port..
I've tried this several times but get the same error. I've read it can be a issue with a cable but I am using a OEM samsung cable. I've tried plugging it in several usb ports but same issue. Any ideas what i'm doing wrong or need to do?
Edit:
Plugged into a different usb port. Tried flashing Space kernel again and now I get error "<ID:0/006> Complete(Write) operation failed."

He can.
It's just causing by PC, or USB cable.

When I try to flash space kernel I get "can't open (COM) serial port" and when I try to flash CF-auto I get "Nand Write start - > FAIL!".
I've used this PC and usb cable with other phones and it worked fine with Odin.
I am running Windows 10 this time though. I turned off Windows defender to. Not sure if that creates issues with connectivity.

When you say stock do you mean flash the official firmware? Since I've had the phone I've only updated with official firmware from Samsung.
thanks.

Awesome I'll give it a go later today. Thanks !
I've successfully rooted some of my previous androids, and currently have a rooted LG tablet, today I was trying to root my Galaxy S7 and I bricked it and can't unbrick it. I was following this guide devs-lab. com/root-samsung-galaxy-s7-s7-edge.html. Everything looked like it worked Odin said pass but my phone got stuck in a boot loop. I tried to root it with a tar.md5 from a different site but it fails. When I put it into recovery mode it shows the droid with a red caution sign and says "No command". From there I can get into the recovery menu and I've tried wiping the cache and that didn't work, I then tried the factory reset and that didn't work. I then downloaded the "Stock_DeOdexed_Debloated" ROM from here and tried to sideload it using adb but that fails saying "E:footer is wrong. E:Signature verification failed" I tried to install it from the SD card but get the same message. In the recovery menu it says "No Support SINGLE-SKU, Supported API:3, # MANUAL MODE #, -- Appling Multi-CSC..., Applied the CSC-code : TMB, Successfully applied multi-CSC., Successfully verify for dmverity hash tree". I'm currently downloading a stock firmware zip file I found on a different site. Is there any way I can unbrick it or is it permanently bricked? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I flashed the files that were inside the zip using Odin and fixed it, I can’t figure out how to attach files so I've included links to the stock firmware I used as well as the version of Odin I used.
Stock firmware - downloadmirror. co/Urs/G930TUVU4APK1_G930TTMB4APK1_TMB.zip?download_token=20ae1b122f8519d6cfc69c0ef013b3f4c6856d15149bdc46bc3bcfecfb91ee1f
Odin - dropbox. com/s/go43hspdcbg9rld/Odin3_v3.12.5.rar?dl=0
It sounds like you have only soft bricked. As long as you flash the same firmware you had before everything got borked, it should work. Search the threads here at xda for links to the firmware you need or download from sammobile to be safe.
Also make sure you have the latest version of Odin, and all the Samsung drivers are installed. Hope this helps and good luck.
I've tried flashing the Unknown (XAS) version of the N920PVPS3DRD1 firmware coming from the N920PVPS3DRD1 Sprint (cdma) Through odin. It got stuck on finding pit file, so I closed odin and now my device is stuck in a bootloop. It stays on samsung galaxy note 5 screen then restarts and goes to TWRP. When I go into download mode it doesn't display any information in the top left. I have a backup of the sprint version which I have tried restoring to (I haven't wiped any data in fear of losing the backup) However I have the backup on my PC too which I should be able to send to the device using ADB. This didn't work. And it is still stuck in a bootloop. Does anyone know how to solve the issue? Thanks.
Download the correct 4 file package(I like Android File Host) and reflash using Odin. Edit the Odin .ini file to unlock all of the options, and then make sure you check the boxes that say nand wipe, phone efs clear, and bootloader update. Also extract the .pit file and insert that into the pit section. If it doesn't flash fully the first time, uncheck all of the boxes, reboot Odin mode, and flash again. This almost always solves my flashing issues.
Hey all,
A few days ago I did something very stupid and wiped the internal SD card which obviously bricked my phone down to download-mode, after which I initially flashed back a stock firm file which didn't help. After a lot of freaking out I remembered I had a TWRP-backup so I recovered this and my phone booted back up with IMEI in place and in/out calling+texting working.
Only things the backup couldn't fix are
1. PC - phone connectivity through USB doesn't work at all (besides when in download mode), it just charges and doesn't give me an option to choose or switch USB-mode. When connected while in TWRP there still is no connectivity, even after enabling MTP. Most importantly, Windows device manager doesn't seem to detect anything at all when I plug or unplug my phone but interestingly enough USB-OTG is working without a hitch so I have no clue as to why regular USB won't work on any pc :x
2. The initial boot screen (The one without animation saying Samsung Galaxy S6) somehow got corrupted and shows a somewhat glitched up download-mode screen before booting into system or recovery.
Anybody able to lend a hand?
if you can get to download mode and USB connectivity works, shouldn't you be able to flash stock firmware using OIDN?
Yeah I am able to flash, I already tried that and it did not help with either of the issues :/
Interestingly enough USB-OTG is working without a hitch so I have no clue as to why regular USB won't work on any pc :x
Have you tried flashing a 4-part firmware with PIT file and Re-Partition & Nand Erase All options checked in Odin ?

No I have not, I'd need to hunt this 4-part firmware down first + backup everything on there
Can I just restore a twrp-backup afterwards? or might that give me troubles?

Flash a 4-part firmware w/ PIT + Re-Partition and Nand Erase All to be back on a healthly base, then flash TWRP and restore your backup.
You can download a 4-part firmware using the SamFirm tool (Binary Nature checked in the software).

This piece of advice fixed all my problems, thank you Only thing I ran in to was which PIT file to use since g920f has OPEN, OPEN_HIDDEN100M and OPEN_HIDDEN150M .PIT available and I do not know what the difference is between these (I ended up going with the non-HIDDEN one).
