Odin flash failed, device 3, binary 2. Help needed!

Hi,
I have a G920F, I was rooted and want to go to stock again. I have restored the device with Smart Switch, but now I am unable to flash any other rom. I have downloaded 3 different roms from Sammobile and get sw. check failed device 3 binary 2 at everyone. The current rom is form Italy Wind the latest OI9. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, probably you trying to install oldest firmware 5.0.1, download the latest firmware and try again. You are with 5.1, right? This error on odin happens, because you cannot downgrade the firmware. Hope this helps.

I think you can not downgrade even if it is the same Android version.
If it detects you are on a newer bootloader it will give you that error.
What I belive you can do is to extract the bootloader (sboot) and modem from the .tar file and flash ONLY the system through Odin.
Don't know exactly how to do that because I haven't done it but I think that would do; you will have to search and read my friend.
You will have the stock firmware but with latest bootloader and modem.
Hope this helps.
Note: As far as I know this will work if its the same Andorid version; you can not have Android 5.0.2 with 5.1.1 bootloader.

Hi,
I have tried what you said, but no succes. The firmware was already recovered with smart switch so the bootloader is the latest.

But did you try to flash without the bootloader and modem?

Modem needs to be downgraded for ZX3 unlock box to unlock s7 phones or 6.1 OS

Modem needs to be downgraded for ZX3 unlock box to unlock s7 phones or 6.1 OS
Hello I was just wondering when i go to unlock a new security Samsung running 6.01 or higher
I always encounter error saying try to downgrade modem if possible
I know how to flash phone to downgrade OS to 5.1
But problem is most of these flash files for newer phones do not have flash files for downgrading to 5.1
My question is i read somewhere you can just temporarily downgrade your modem only
Where can i get these downgraded modem files and are they different then full flash 5.1
I am also not sure which option to choose when I open Odin TO DO MODEM ONLY BL AP CP oR csc
Thank you in advance

[Q] How to downgrade J700F to 5.1.1 after november update(MM)

sw rev check fail device 1 binary 0
Please someone give me a step by step guide to downgrade to 5.1.1

Flash using odin
I guess you will have to do it using odin. Search these forums for the guide. I saw it around here. Use search man. Thanks.

Download the firmware of 5.1.1 of j700f from sam mobiles website and flash it with odin

please i need some help too can't downgrade it from mm to lp.. i read on some tread that the new mm bootloader did that

When boost mobile and sprint and virgin mobile updated their j7s from f3 to ph4 they did the samething but on 6.0.1. What they did was stop the flashing of the older rom which did not have the Asks software security. When you flash a older android version such as 5.0 over a new android version such as 6.0 the flash is declined. You cant downgrade cause the bootloader prevents it thats why theres a error message in odin.. not really sure why youd want 5.0 over 6.0.

N971N - Korean Firmware to Uk Firmware

I was hoping someone could help me out. I have a Korean firmware Galaxy Note 10, i have scoured through the internet trying to find a solution or a flashable firmware to change it back to the UK firmware, to my recollection they both have the same processor.
I have gone as far as rooting so that it could open some doors in terms of reverting back to the UK firmware. i was wondering if anyone could help.
Everytime i tried flashing the UK firmware using Odin it would say the bootloader is locked, however i did unlock the bootloader before attempting to flash the firmware.

Maybe the UK firmware you trynna install is older than the one you already have? Maybe it's preventing flash for such Security reasons?
Tried flashing bootloader only?
Firmware without bootloader?

would you know where i would be able to obtain the firmware?

You can't install Uk firmware onto n976n, this model has only 4 CSC available and all of them Korean.
