Just go to sammobile, download the firmware for your device, flash said firmware through ODIN. Done.

Are there any rules when choosing firmware ? I don't wait for a week to download wrong one Also when i tried fleshing some they either flash but no visible changes like nothing is deleted and stuff,or i get some error...

First, this is not the subforum to post these kind of questions...
Second, try here: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s6/SM-G920F/ (Your product name says SM-G920F) and download any firmware that you complies with your country/provider. The downloads are throttled as a normal (free) user, but it should not take more than 2-3 hours downloading. Flash with ODIN. Profit.

Do i put file i download in the AP part of odin,and sorry for posting in wrong place xD.

Yeah, depends on the version of Odin you have, but you can follow this tutorial (or any similar) and you should be ready to go

Back to stock - Issues.

I have a I9020T, I was on CM7, Oxygen etc.. for the last few months. But i had some stability issues, SOD's , reboots, freezes etc.
So i thought I'll go back to good old stock. i downloaded the stock rom's from the general section, and flashed them
Now i notice that i lose signals, phone's display is messed up during incoming calls( I can only see the the status bar, Below that everything is black, But i could just answer the calls by swiping the screen), Losing signal happens almost every alternate day.
So all i wanna know is, Are all these known bugs or is my phone screwed up due to too much flashing?
I am totally unrooted now.... I wiped everything including sd card and have tried atleast 3 different stock roms already.
Anyone else having these issues? Any solutions or fixes.
Hi,
Have you already try ODIN ?
He's able to put your device as it was before all changes.

I thought odin was not safe? That's a last option right because its the same as flashing the stock rom through recovery?
I've already use it a lot of time. I was using it on my spica by thé past.
With thé good files and the good tuto it might work.
Here, in France, we use Odin to restore a clean phone.
If you decided tu use it, you will put your device like ait was new . And you will have to flash thé recovery and root him.
I late you search for some comments from over users.

can you supply links for the nessesary files for i9020t???
I'll find the folder to download here (need to register for DL) : http://www.samfirmware.com/mobile.htm
I'm looking for link for ODIN download.
I just talk about a way to might resolve some issue, use it a your own risks.
Be careful with your device version. Save your data (SMS, Pictures, Music...)
Using Odin shouldn't remove data from "SD CARD" but might be safe...
Edit : The link of download ODIN is in the same line. (FLASHER).

Can you give me link of proper instructions for ODIN, I searched here and the thread in Android development doesn't seem to have the necessary files for I9020T.
I don't know what kind of difference there is between i9020 A and i9020 T.
I'm running a i9023.
In the website I'd give the link, you'll find a FlashGuide with explain what is necessary to do in order to use Odin.
If you register there, you'll able to download the guide and more informations about the way to use.
I can't give you more answers, sorry.
Try Matr1x v11.0 CFS ;D
Do you think i9023 & i9020T are running the same build ?
I wonder.
Because, I've just get a look on the following thread and the two devices seems to work with the same baseband.
Look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056062
I let you wait for another feedback from users. I just should want to give a way.
I hope you'll manage to get back to Stock.

[Q] Odin failing OTA 4.3

What I did
Installed Clockwork through the play store and then clicked on the option to flash it.
I was running a rooted verizon's touchwiz for 4.3 jelly bean on samsung galaxy s3. Someone should probably write that guy and be like hey it doesn't work for your software and firmware versions ... because it checked it and said it was all good. Yeah I'm a noob but it's been 4 months since the last post saying it can't be done and I figured people would have updated their software to work with the nonsense that samsung decided to shove down our throats.
I've followed a few threads now on trying to fix my phone
The one I found most helpful in terms of directions was
ID: 1840030 is the one in particular that I thought would be the most helpful
I download all these packages (and man are they slow to download)
VRALEC fails to flash in odin 3.07 and some of the pictures don't match up (I've tried flashing everything just for the fun of it and it just fails)... Phone still turns on though. I can't find any other versions of odin even on thread titled [27.08.2013 LATEST] Odin 3.09, Odin 1.85 | All versions! | Samsung ROM Flashing Tools.
I'm just an idiot that can't seem to find links but there weren't any there (probably because of the "Mod Edit link removed")

Im a lil confused on wat ur asking and wat happened to ur fone
U were on 4.3ota lock bootloader and u tried to download CLOCKMOD RECOVERY?
If thats true then u Brick ur fone. But u stated that it powers on. So u can get into DL Mode and Odin the correct file wich would be ML1
Flashing ML1 tar file will lock ur bootloader(WONT BE ABLE TO UNLOCK IT) and unroot it

First thing first
Directions ID is a bad one (sorry about that). Best I can do is this one here: showthread.php?t=1840030
second:
Brick means that it doesn't turn on. I never said I bricked it.
Things I've done since OP
I found another version of Odin inside one of the zip packages I downloaded. This one at least looks like the pictures that were posted in the thread.
I attempted to reflash VRALEC boot twice and both failed.
What I'm looking for:
I'm looking for an image that will work or
I was trying to backup the stock image and I'm worried I don't even have that now.

Like the other poster I'm still not real sure what you are trying to do but that said sammobile is a good place to find ROMs if you rather not snag files from here. Always check md5 hashes as sometimes downloads can be bad. If your downloaded file is even a little bit corrupted, it will fail to flash potentially creating all sorts of bad things.
Judging from what you've posted from the ODIN MODE data you've tripped KNOX already and AFAIK that cannot be reversed and voided any warranty. Could be wrong as I've not kept up with newer workarounds as I've not needed to do so.
I would suggest taking a deep breath and start to slowly read. Good luck.

[Official Firmware] T311 (works for ODIN recovery brick fix)

Hey all,
I had an adventure today. I soft bricked my tablet phone (SM-T311 unlocked). On a later post I will give instructions on how I successfully rooted this device and installed ROMs, but here I will tell you what I did wrong and how to fix it.
First some background. After installing 2 ROMs and downloading a bunch of apps for rooted phones I felt pretty confident in myself. I figured I'd try one more ROM to see if it might have better phone functionality. I read through the instructions on the developer's page and proceeded. I usually go very slow and proceed one step at a time, but this time I quickly read through the 5-6 steps and thought, ok, I got this. Well, I got one of the steps reversed and soft bricked my phone. What a pain!! I ended up missing work to get my phone fixed. After researching and trying different stuff, I found what worked. Here's what I did to unbrick my soft-bricked tablet.
Unfortunately I cannot post attachments yet, but when I can I will attached the tar.md5 stock firmware file for anyone who needs it. If you have an emergency you can send me a message with you E-mail, or post it below, and I'll send it to you.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1 - Download ODIN (I used version 3.07)
2 - Download original firmware from sammobile dot com / firmware (I do not mind E-mailing it to anyone who needs this until I can get it posted)
a. Sign up for a free account
b. On firmware page, scroll down midway and search for T311 (you can find just about any Samsung firmware here)
c. My tablet is unlocked and not tied to a carrier so I chose "unknown" source
d. It will take an hour to download because it's a "free" account. Make sure your phone is charging in the meantime. When finished downloaded proceed.
3 - Get your phone into download mode (hold down Power+Down+Home).
4 - Plug your phone into your computer
5 - Run Odin as administrator, make sure "auto reboot" and "reset time" boxes are checked, will say "Added!" in Message box when it reads your phone. NOTE - if it is not reading your phone you need to install Samsung drivers, you can find them on XDA or Samsung website. I assume you are, however, able to connect to your computer if you got as far as bricking your tablet.
6 - Put the downloaded file into the Odin folder (though I really don't think it matters where you put it, but that's what everyone says to do)
7 - Push PDA button and attached tar.md5 firmware file
8 - Push run and let it go its course (appx 20 minutes)
Your phone will restart and work like new.
UPDATE//
..removed my ROM observations, was confusing to some...More importantly:
If you do a fresh install with firmware and a PIT file to complete a nand erase and then your phone gets stuck on the Samsung logo after it reboots, please re-root and then install CWM 6.0.4.5. I cleared caches on CWM and rebooted. Then my phone worked new.
My lessons learned after all this... I'm just sticking to a simple root for access to my favorite apps, and not doing anything else beyond that.
For anyone who messed your T311 up and need to restore it to new, hopefully this helped!!
Wrong forum... This one is for thr 7" one, not the 8" version...

Sm-T330nu root gone wrong.

This is my first time to this site and there appears to be a lot of information but I couldnt find the correct section to post this, so here goes.
I have a Tab 4 SM-t330nu with 5.1.1 I just tried to root it and I applied a root for a 4.x operating system. The device loads to the samsung screen and hangs. I can still get into the downloading function but I am looking for the correct file to flash with odin. I did find this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/development/smnu-lp-touchwiz-5-1-1-kernel-rootable-t3164499 but he said not to flash with odin so im not sure if I can use it or not.
Sorry for the basic question, hopefully someone can point me to the correct file. Thank you.
I got the stock rom back on it and its updating, I still just need to find the root file for a SM-T330NU canadian wifi model. Not sure if anyone can help. Id like to boot thru Odin as I understand it (now lol)

Galaxy S7 Nougat Beta G930F (Would this process work for T-mobile?)

So I stumbled upon the files for the nougat beta program for samsung on another forum that I follow. I just wanted to share this and know if this could mean anything as in a modified stock nougat for our phone or possible even a bootloader exploint found in this beta. Read the original link first for more details.
CAUTION
User Maherk from the forum said this on the flashing matter:
"One issue that I faced while flashing the device, is that Odin kept crashing when the process gets to system.img, which meant that I soft bricked my phone.
If that happened to you, don't panic, press volume down+power button for 10 seconds, the phone will show an emergency message, stay there, and plug the phone and flash the file again. Don't go back to the download mode, just stay on the emergency screen and flash it.
Another thing to consider, the zip file you get might have 4 files, AP, BL, CS, and CSC. If it does, then make sure to rename the AP to .tar instead of the .tar.md5
Good luck"

Have you flashed this on G930T?

I would've like to but I cannot as I need my phone for work. If someone would like to try this I would appreciate it very much but do be wary of risks that are posed with flashing Roms.
It will not work. It's like trying to put diesel in a gasoline engine.
I thought the same, this will not work.
