Odin is failing me - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So ummmm... Slight noob here. I searched this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...e-deodexed-mod-edition-1-0-t3094423/page1630) to see if it works on G920p and found comments saying it does. Being overjoyed I flashed it. Ran into touchscreen problems so I flashed the correct kernel. It works pretty good except I don't have root for whatever reason. I tried cf auto root... No go. So I just wanted to back to stock and give up finding Roms for this device BUT Odin keeps giving me a fail message like this
Added!!

File analysis..
SetupConnection..

Get PIT for mapping..
Firmware update start..
SingleDownload.
shoot.bin
NAND Write Start!!

Can anybody help me. I never had this problem it usually works. Is it because I flashed firmware that wasn't based on G920p???

You can encounter that problem when PIT or modem or bootloader are incorect for a rom version you're trying to flash with Odin. Did you manually flashed some modem/bootloader when you were flashing that custom rom? And which version of stock rom are you trying to flash with Odin?

No i didn't install anything besides the ROM. I tried installing all the MM files for the s6 found here http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?r=SPR&v=Marshmallow(Android+6.0.1)&q=SM-G920P. It used to work before i flashed this ROM. Now i get a "fail" message every time.

Have you tried the firmware that officially came with yours?
I had once the same problem with a friends G925F which I tried the latest version of MM on and had the same issue. When installing back the firmware of our country it succeeded.
And you can always try Smart Switch the Emergency Recovery function.

If you mean "out of the box" then no. I did try to flash the official MM for my Sprint version. No luck

Softbricked my S3.

SOLVED! (at bottom)
I have searched threads here as well as other places and have had no success.
Device: Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 (SCH-I535)
Info: Stock, non-root and no ROMS
Current firmware: KitKat 4.4.2
I was trying to use Odin 3.09 to revert to the firmware version 4.1.2 (which I got from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/) in order to install CM 11. I entered the phone into download mode and entered the 4.1.2 firmware file. Everything loaded and connected fine. I clicked Start and it stopped at aboot.mbn and failed because I think 4.4.2 has a locked bootloader. I also think I tripped the Knox Security flag and therefore it is now softbricked. The phone can still go into Download mode but not recovery mode.
I followed two guides to unbrick it:
1) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2581166
The microSD card method did not work. I have not tried JTAG.
2) http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s3-i535-unbrick-soft-brick-125413/
Odin once again fails and cannot flash the VRALEC.bootchain.tar.md5 file, leaving the same error as before:

What can I do now? Is my case different because I'm on 4.4.2?

You are in the same pickle as everyone who took the 4.3 upgrade and tried to downgrade. You have two options
1 wait for the 4.4.2 tar (could take days)
2 try a little experiment by flashing nc1 with Odin and if that works (does the full flash doesn't need to boot) download the 4.4.2 update zip and flash it in stock recovery by holding power button + vol up + home at the same time from a powered off state.

Hmm, a few days isn't bad. It couldn't take longer than a week, right?
Is this the correct link for NC1? www .mediafire.com/download/fx8xu907ff48bo3/I535_NC1_Kernel.zip (take out the space after www)
Also, I could not find the official 4.4.2 update zip for my phone no matter where I looked. Any ideas?

You provided a kernel link just form looking at the title. I'm going to guess that this file is not 700+ MB. If it is not, then that is definitely not what ThePagel was referring to. He was suggesting Odin flashing the full stock VRUCNC1 tar from his thread. I am fairly certain this does not work but you can try since you have no other options.
4.4.2 update.zip.

Ah, thank you.

Thank you so much! I was getting a bit worried and then I found this post! :cyclops:
Sorry to bump an old thread but how did you successfully flash the file with ODIN? It is recovery.img and I don't see a place to flash an .img file in ODIN

Odin NAND write fail and white/electric noise during calls

Here's my problem which I was trying to fix for a week now. I got a Galaxy S6 (G920FXXU3COI9 - international) which was working fine but I decided to make some improvements (tmobile wifi calling, etc). So, I decided to root the phone with new kernel (S6-UniBase_BOG8_v2) and then put a new ROM in (Rapture 2.1, my build became G920TUV2COF8). And everything works fine but when I make phone calls on tmobile tower I'm getting nasty while noise (but wifi calling, viber, etc, work just fine. 4G network works fine too but it looks like phone reception is kinda low).
So, I decided to try another ROM or change modem/BL files but Odin 3.10.7 (and 1.8) cannot pass NAND write stage. On another hand, I was able to change kernels. I also tried to reinstall samsung drivers and use another USB port - same result. Trying to flash with new BL/modem throws error on the phone "SW rev check fail device: 3 binary: 2" which doesn't show up when I try to flash ROM.
Any ideas on how to fix noise or change ROM to international or T-Mobile one? I suspect that I'm using incompatible files somewhere but I tried 4 different ROMs with the same results.

Failed in sboot.bin means your flashing an older bootloader.
Sorry to say but you cant downgrade your bootloader.
Your phone has COI9 based from what you said. Where did you get the modem/bootloader file? Im suspecting it is not on COI9 bootloader.
Just flash a latest stock firmware from sam firmware to get the latest bootloader.

thanks. Thants what I thought the problem is. Can you send me the link for the latest bootloader/modem I can flash on my phone.
Do you think I can use T-mobile ROM with my international edition phone?
Dude, Im just using my phone right now, Just search your exact phone model in sammobile and download the whole firmware.
SamMobile provides original/verified/stock full firmwarw for your device. They wouldnt upload a single bootloader or modem img or bin files.
Maybe someone can share their extracted sboot.bin based from COI9. Just be sure to convert it to flashable odin file before flashing or else youll be facing some problems again. Or better, a ready made flashable odin bootloader based from COI9.

Many thanks, man.
I found the firmware on sams mobile but they have 5 different ones for PDA: G920FXXU3COJ1; I'm confused with CSC code. Thats why I was asking for a direct link.
Excuse my ignorance but by "convert it to flashable odin file" you mean .img to md5 conversion or something else?
And, one more question, I guess it is not a good idea to change ROM from 920F to 920T, or I should try few more 920T before giving up?
Hmm why would you want to flash a TMo version??? If I were you, just stick with your current ROM.
There is no direct link for sammobile, just forget what I've said with COI9 build number, just download the latest firmware for your region. If you find any file just pick the latest date and youll do good. It contains the latest bootloader for your phone.
Md5 thing is just for the checksum for odin. It is added for verification and its the most praticed and suggested way of creating ODIN flashable files.. But IMG will do good.

ok, finally got it fix, sorta.
Rapture 2.1 ROM gave me loud white noise during calls but the rest was working fine. The post says to flash the phone with BL and Modem files but Odin failed (I assume since I have newer BL already). So, I went back with latest G920FXX stock ROM and the phone works fine.

Help on flashing Indian firmware on J700F/DS

Hello guys... I have a Samsung galaxy J7. On the backside of the device, the model number is written as J700F/DS. But on the about section in the setting, the model number is written as J7008. When I checked on the internet, this model number (J7008) belongs to chinese firmware version. Since it is a chinese firmware, it doesn't have playstore. I downloaded j700f marshmallow firmware from the internet and tried to flash through odin. But it shows the following error.
Odin engine v(ID:3.1301)...

Question How to flash a different model firmware (i.e. SM908E onto a phone currently running SM9080)

Hi everyone,
I do have a Snapdragon S22 Ultra that is currently running SM9080.
However, non of the CSC versions available for this firmware has eSim support.
Therefore I would like to try flashing the SM908E firmware (which should have eSim support) and which is also a snapdragen hardware.
My problem right now is that ODIN does not flash the different firmware onto the phone, so I'm looking for help on how to technically do that.
What I've tried so far:
Tried to flash BL/AP/CP/CSC files *without* "re-partition" option enabled.
This gives the error "Re-Partition operation failed."
Tried to flash BL/AP/CP/CSC files *with* "re-partion" option enables and a PIT file selected.
This ends up with Odin reporting "SetupConnection..." and then basically freezing for some time until it reports "Complete(Write) operation failed."
Note the Device is currently not yet rooted.
So I'm a little bit lost now what the problem is and how to do the next step ....
Any suggestions or ideas are highly welcome!
Further info: I've now also tried to
unlock the bootloader
root the AP file with magisk
Nothing helps to.
I can flash e.g. a magisk-rooted firmware SM-S9080 but I can't flash S908E.
This is the error message that I get when trying to use the "re-format" option and also select the PIT file.
<ID:0/005> Odin engine v(ID:3.1401)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..

Thanks for trying... I'm not sure if its going to work... I have the SM9080 as well.

You should just be able to flash the home csc in Odin. I currently have a 908e with the 908w csc installed this way.
I suggest you flash twrp if you want to change different model.
Try with a Patched Odin? https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/patched-odin-3-13-1.3762572/
Any look over here?
No luck so far ...
Tried the "patched Odin" -> same propblem
Tried to flash only the CSC file with ODIN -> doesn't work
Installed TWRP according to this guide Link but when I try to install any of firmware ZIP files then I get the error message that the ZIP file is not okay.
So what help now would be if I know how I can use TWRP to maybe flash one of the downlaoded firmware files.
Any idea?
