I have apparently killed my Note 3 SM-N900T. I was trying to install a new ROM/OS and now all I can do is get into TWRP but it won't let me install any of the zip files. It keeps coming back with an error message saying it failed. I have tried multiple downloads including the DarkLord and the original Samsung, but nothing seems to work. I can't get into Smart Switch even though I have the IMEI number. It's asks for the S/N which is not listed under the battery. Someone please help!!! Here is the list of what I have tried loading:
DarkLord.Note7.Full.Port.V1.0.edit.Ufo71
N900TUVUFOL1_N900TTMBFOL1_TMB-v5.0.1
DarkLord.N5.Beta.N920SKSU2ZPFB_edit.Ufo71
I can also get into Odin, but it only goes the the "downloading now" screen and it's not downloading anything. I spent over an hour on the phone with T-Mobile and Samsung and they were no help at all. I just need to know how I can get any OS/ROM to load.
Thanks for anything you can do to get me out of this jam. I need my phone.

So I tried to root my Samsung Galaxy S6 today using TWRP and it got stuck in a boot loop. I went to wipe to cache and accidentally wiped to system. So now there is no OS installed. I know I need to somehow put an OS on the device but I'm in Canada and when I go to samsung's site to download the firmware, there is no Canada option. I bought the phone off of amazon and it came with a European wall charger because it was imported, but how do I know what firmware to download?
Also, when I have found the right firmware, how do I flash it onto the device? I can no longer access TWRP, all I can get is the downloading screen thing. Can I use Odin/how do I use Odin?
Somebody help me I'm panicking because I broke my brand new phone!
You should check the Amazon listing to see which model number you have. It's probably SM-920F.
Once you have the correct firmware downloaded, Google a guide to flashing Galaxy S6 firmware with Odin. There are a lot of them out there.

On the back of the phone it should say which model you have, for example G920F, G920W8, G920P etc.
Download the proper firmware from Sammobile, then follow the tutorial that the following thread has a link to.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841
If the variant you have is the European model, G920F, I recomend you install the unbranded firmware.
IMPORTANT! MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE PROPER FIRMWARE! INSTALLING THE WRONG FIRMWARE CAN HARD BRICK YOUR DEVICE!
I really hope this advice helped!
Really important is only that you pick the right model to download. The region isn't that important. Go to sammobile and download your stock rom, but be sure to not pick a branded one, because they are full of junk.
Also, you must use ODIN in that Download-Mode. Open ODIN, plug your device into your pc and see, if ODIN shows up your device. If yes, select "PDA" or "AP" (depending on ODIN Version) and select your ROM that you have downloaded. Then click on start. Don't touch your phone, your cable or your computer for best results. Wait ODIN say "PASS" with a green background. If this occurs, your phone should restart and after 10 mins or so, it should boot Android.
I did the same this as the OP, now I am stuck on the main "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Powered by Android" screen. I can boot into TWPR and into download. I have tried flashing zip from external SD card with USB-OTG with no luck, I have tried flashing from Odin, multiple Odin versions tried, multiple usb cords tried, multiple computers tried.. all result with <ID:x/xxx> Can't open serial(COM) port."
No matter what I do, I can't seem to get anything to take, not stock firmware or otherwise. Any suggestions.. donations for anyone who can help me solve. lol $$

In odin under options untick Auto Reboot.
Flash Rom
Phone wont reboot once rom has flashed successfully so you will need to do manual reboot.
Go into recovery mode and wipe data.
Reboot phone
that should help let us know if it works
wifi wont turn on
hi, i managed to install the firmware but now the wifi and bluetooth wont turn on, wifi toggle and bluetooth wont go on, it looks like is trying toget on but after 20 seconds justgo back to off. idont know what to do .........
I can't even get any firmware to load as odin continually stops within seconds of starting to flash phone, no matter what firmware I choose it's the same result failed flash?
Last night my mom asked me if I could format her tablet, because it was too slow (Even for that device), and had a lot of crap on it.
So... I took a look at it and started to google about the tablet. Turns out it hadn't been upgraded to the latest firmware; it was on Android 4.1.2, and as it says here: "sammobile.com/tag/gt-p3100/" the latest available firmware is 4.2.2 .
Thus I tried to update it via software update on the device, but it turned out it wasn't able to update because the tablet has been modified. Then I remembered that a long time ago I tried to root it without much success, but didn't try again because I got bored.
Then I downloaded the 4.2.2 firmware UK version (P3110XXDMH1_P3110OXADMH1_BTU), and flashed it via Odin. Sadly it went wrong and a "Failed!" sign appeared. I can't remember what step failed, but it booted anyways, but this time my PC recognized the device as a "GT-P3110". I thought that maybe it was because the UK firmware was a Vodafone version, so I downloaded the Russian brandless version (P3100XWDMK1_P3100SERDMK2_SER) and flashed; it failed again, but this time the tablet didn't turn on normally.
I can't boot it neither normally, recovery or Download mode, it shows only a message that says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again", which as I read on other android sites and this forum, it's a soft brick message.
Then I tried to do as it said, installed Kies and tried to fix what I've done, but when I enter the device data (Model and "S/N") it shows a message saying that the model info cannot be verified and that the device initialization can't continue.

So... This is as much info as I can remember about what could've gone wrong, please help me, if I can't fix it, mom will continue to be a liiiiittle too much angry
Beforehand thank you very much.
PS: I had to write wrong the links because I created this account just because I had this problem, so I can't post links.
Woah this happen to me once, but i try to flash it again and its work, this happen when i chose the wrong firmware zip, but it work when i instal the right one, maybe u flash wrong firmware bro, try flash the right rom bro
this message is like download mode, you can connect to pc and flash any firmware via odin
Yes, as said you can go in Download Mode and reflash another good ROM ! Make sure the .tar.md5 is not corrupted.
So my aunt came to me with a Samsung J3[6] android phone. She wanted me to bypass the block that says (this device has been reset recently, you must log in using an email you have used recently on this device)
I thought no problem. I was just going to flash it and restore stock J3 rom onto it, however I made a rookie mistake and I put the J3 V rom on instead while not paying attention. The phone boots and the buttons work so it is not bricked but now when ever I boot the phone the "setup wizard" continuously crashes. I need help fixing this and getting it working again ASAP because she neglected to tell me that she ALREADY SOLD the damn thing.
EDIT: I should also mention I have tried re-flashing it but now when in download mode I get "security check failed: pit" error
If this is the wrong place i do appologise
have spent all morning searching this forum with plentiful ideas but cant seem to fix the issues
My tablet had been lying dormant for about a month
went to charge it this morning and it was giving me a
Custom binary blocked by frp lock
After a quick search found some solutions about re flash etc etc
did my thing in odin only for it to fail
The problem next was i can no longer get in to download mode because im getting a blue screen saying
An error occured whilst updating the sfotware
use emergency recov function in smart switch
so downloaded smartch switch and there is no recovery option available to me the tab is not appearing in the current version
So i downloaded an older versio
the tab became avaialble but when searching my device and serial number, it said it is not supported with this device and to contact the service centre??
any suggestions on a fix
feel like im stuck where i can not even get in to download mode to try and reinstall a stock build or anything
thanks in advance
and appologies if in the wrong place
Hello Everyone,
I have a bricked Galaxy Note 10.1 (Verizon) SCH-I925.
The only thing I am able to get to is ODIN mode.
I have downloaded from sammobile; KIES_HOME_I925VRAMK1_I925VZWAMK1_1481643_REV00_user_low_ship.tar
and have tried to load it using ODIN versions 1.85, 3.07, and 3.13. They all come back with a invalid hash error when I try to load it.
I have also tried to use:
BOOTLOADER_ALL_I925VRAMK1_I925VZWAMK1_1481643_REV00_user_low_ship.tar
CSC_ALL_I925VRAMK1_I925VZWAMK1_1481643_REV00_user_low_ship.tar
MODEM_ALL_I925VRAMK1_I925VZWAMK1_1481643_REV00_user_low_ship.tar
PDA_ALL_I925VRAMK1_I925VZWAMK1_1481643_REV00_user_low_ship.tar
These just fail when I try to load.
When I connect my device to my computer, it shows up in device manager as a USB device. Is this correct or should it show as an ADB.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Its a USB device .
Hash error bad download first check .Second check wrong firmware/ bricked phone SEE multiple bricked phone posts .
Try KIES recovery .
Will not connect
Tried KIES, both versions, does not connect.
The only thing I can get into is ODIN on the device.
I have read many threads on here but have not seen an answer to unbricking a Verizon SCH-i925 Not 10.1.
Help please.

Do you know anything about how it was bricked? Do you get the Samsung logo if you start it normally? You said only Odin is working, so I guess you also tried the recovery, does it just restart then or what happens in this case?

If I start it normally, I get the Samsung screen and then it goes blank. Recovery says "System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your device. Please turn off your device and go to nearest Verizon Wireless store for help."
System bricked while trying to upgrade to Marshmallow. What I downloaded said it was for Verizon Model, but as soon as I tried to install the upgrade, that is when it bricked.

Just a heads up, no root or custom rom has been created for this specific model. Trust me, I am currently in the same boat as you. I have yet to find a solution.
