Entering Wireless download mode throws out an error and then shuts down the watch - Samsung Gear S2

JHi all,
I have a strange issue with entering the wireless download mode on two watches.
I had R732XXU2BOKK and I flashed R732XXU2EPK5 using Odin and Wireless download mode. No problems entering it.
The watches are used without any issues, but I've noticed that Gear app on the phone reports, when checking for the Gear firmware update, that the software has been modified and it stops looking for the software update.

}
I've tried resetting the watch to factory settings and afterwards the software update can be checked for the first time, as shown below, but on the second update it fails again with the same error as on the image above.
I was curious some more and I decided to perhaps try flashing the older ROM (R732XXU2BOKK) and see if that one would be blocked from checking for the update.
To my surprise, every time I would try entering the wireless download mode, both watches would shut down and I would need to hold the power button for more than 5 sec for them to start. Once they start everything is fine and dandy. I've noticed that while entering the download mode there is a really short text written before the watch shuts down, so I recorded it and here is the screenshot of the error message.

Does it mean anything to anyone?
I wouldn't mind rooting them and putting on TWRP, but without the download mode, I'm stuck a bit.
If I would install the Tizen SDK I could use SDB commands and ultimately flash stuff, am I right?

Hello have you found a solution to this also loaded the R732XXU2EPK5 .. I think there is something wrong with this firmware that killed our wireless download mode .. and I just payed to get the new EQC1 version .. nice ...

Can confirm these issues. Any solution so far? Is firmware upgrade via USB possible?

will the phone boot into fastboot? with the phone off, vol down + pwr ?
I used method 2 manual flashing from the thread you linked to. It was not a developer phone, and the commands said they all failed, but the phone still returned to stock.

New SM-G920F with Smart Switch : Device locked ?!

Hi,
I can't connect my SM-G920F to my PC or Mac. I have tried without Smart Switch first. No luck. It is recognized and a SAMSUNG device but won't mount.
Then with Smart Switch it says "The device is locked so you cannot connect to it. Unlock the device and it will connect automatically."
I passed the lock screen and I am on my home screen. I connect it to USB (debugging on and off) and still the same thing.
Also tried removing my Fingerprint lock screen. Same thing.
Am I missing something here ? I am getting crazy and desperate !
Please help !
Also I never have the choice to select MTP or PTP. Just the Charger Notification.
I bought it Factory Unlocked and updated it to 5.1..1 using Odin.
Thank you.

I found a way. It is clearly not a good one but it works.
I put it in Download Mode, then run Smart Switch, entered my model name and S/N. Restored the firmware to the latest version. This did nothing after the restart but it might be a good thing for the next step anyway.
Next thing is a Hard Reset to factory settings. This did the trick. My phone was detected directly in Windows as a Galaxy S6. Nice and easy. Now Smart Switch recognize it as an S6 also.
I also have the pop up "Connected as a media device" on my notifications which I never had back then.
Well, I had an automatic restore after that so it wasn't a pain after all.
Good luck !
Reflash 5.1.1 again via odin...

Samsung SM-G532F Goes Dead Help!

Hi there
I'm having a serious problem with my sm-g532f, which went OFF forever after trying to flash a new ROM.
Here is what happen:
I rooted the phone in April of 2019, granted to use super user rights but the malfunction started in the midst of 2020, it started simulating back button clicks on its own. By that time I was used to flashing it with original and custom ROMS. But as I was not ok with its malfunction, I downloaded an original update which is of 2019, trying to overcome the problem i flashed it using Odin (as usual). Unfortunately, the download was interrupted by the USB cable, so the process failed. From that day it has never displayed anything.
it does not respond to charger connection nor power button press.
I tried to follow some advices from various sites from which they told me to flash it with SP Flash Tool using MTK USB Drivers. They said it would be detected but it wouldn't remain stable, they meant i would hear Windows reporting device connection and disconnection in less than 45 seconds. Yes, that happened and even now it does the same. They said the 'preloader' has been wiped, so their procedure told me it flash the preloader file first before all the rest of the files. I did it but the flashing tool asked for the 'authentication file', i searched it all around the Internet and found one with this name 'auth-sv5' in a ZIP file. But here is what the Flash Tool says back:

REALME C12 RMX2189 bootloop stuck

My phone is android 10 and rooted with magisk and have TWRP recovery installed. My problem started when I updated my software to android 11. I thought everything is going smoothly but when it restart, the screen is stuck in this mode. I did the power and volume combination but it just restarts and stuck to that screen. I searched for a solution to this and found the flash tool but unfortunately, didn't work and won't flash anything although my phone is somewhat connected to the laptop because it does the sound when I plug and unplug it. I really hope that someone can help me with this because I'm not rich enough to buy a new phone and too young to work...
THIS IS THE FLASH TOOL

Black Screen Died?

I am very sorry if it is not understood very well, I am using a translator since I only speak Spanish.
Have the following tablet:
Samsung Tab 2 10.1" GT-5110
I wanted to install TWRP from Odin3.14.4 (its latest version to date), but an error came up. At that time I did not take a capture to show him.
After what happened, the following message appeared on the screen:
"firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies & try again"
Of which I could not enter the download mode in any way, not even in the recovery mode. Only that message appeared.
I tried to fix it with Samsung's Kies, but I had no success, since it told me that there was no connection with the tablet, but my Windows could recognize the tablet, as well as Odin3, since I have installed the Samsung drivers.
So the next step I found to solve the problem was to install the original Fireware, from which I managed to get it in "Frija" and I started to install it with Odin3.
Everything was going perfectly, maybe I would be able to solve this problem that I got into, I could see that the tablet screen began to load a progress bar, but... the following error appeared, which now I did take a screenshot of.

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The thing is that now the tablet has turned off completely, it has a black screen and now Windows doesn't want to recognize it. Try to disconnect the battery, try to press the power button + vol down or up, but I have no success.
The truth is that it is not the first time that I do this, and I do not understand how it is possible that it is costing me so much if the files are correct, I follow all the tutorials step by step.
Anyway, this is my last chance, I come to this forum to find out if any expert on the subject can tell me if my tablet died permanently or if there is any remote possibility of saving it.
From already thank you very much.
