Thanks.
So far so good on my ATT Locked S9+

Thank you so much. This set my G965U1 back to unlocked userdata and all my Att bloatware is gone. If you have a G965U1 device this firmware will work to set you back to original state when recieved from samsung. I used Home csc and no userdata file and it removed the att userdata I had been using.

I will be sharing this to help other get back to their original unlocked state. Thank you to OP.

Sure and no problem.

Thanks and 5 stars!
EDIT: FYI: Flashed on a Verizon (VZW) ARF4 S9+. Came back up as unbranded as expected! T-Mobile SIM in device and device asked to reboot once it finished the initial boot up (not set up). When it did, I completetd the setup process. Once I finsihed I was able to place WiFi calls and no effin bloat!!! It does seem to be VoLTE.

No problem :good:

Will applying this firmware unlock a locked AT&T S9 plus phone? Ultimately I would like have a TMobile branded phone or at least be able to use a TMobile SIM on it.
Thanks in advance

Thank you for the info. Do you know if installing a custom ROM or rooting the device would allow me to unlock the SIM/phone?

I found the answer to my previous question and the short answer seems to be no.

So I flashed my SM-G965U1 (Unlocked S9+) to the U firmware. I'm currently on G965USQU3ZRLG (Pie Beta 4) and I can't flash it back to U1/XAA "G965U1UEU3ARK5" in Odin. What am I missing?

No option to help me out sir?... Please help me...
I wish I could help but I have the same issue. I fear once you try (and fail..) to flash to 4.4 upwards you have problems. I have tried a mix of stock roms from 4.0-4.4 and always get the same results as you.
Some forums suggest using a different USB cable, different version of ODIN and also a different USB port.
I have tried all these things with no luck, but maybe it will help you out. I know have a samsung branded paperweight until someone (much smarter than me!) works out how to fix this problem with the Note.
force reboot to odin mode
flash a known working recovery [custom] for your device making sure automatic reboot is checked.
after tab reboots force reboot to recovery mode with button combo.
in recovery mode adb push known working custom rom.zip.
reboot to recovery from recovery.
flash custom rom.
as long as you haven't done anything damaging like flashing bad/wrong bootloader/firmware
you will be able to get odin to reboot.
if odin is telling your that you pit file is missing/damaged then you're done.
haven't heard of anyone successfully flashing/repartitioning with pit file in a long time.
or those who do are the kind who say "okay i fixed it" and never provide the details.
lastly and no offense, don't keep flashing like a spaz, you will just make the situation worse.
so long as you have an intact/functioning kernel in boot or recovery you can revive your device.

Hello..
i'm already Tried Flashing both Stock and custom Recovery.. but they are FAILED in Odin app while it flashing...
Do u have any working stock or custom recovery Links?...
UPD : is that RP SWREV: A2 Meanings is the bootloader have been locked sir?...
and if it locked... how can i unlock it ( with looping Tab and cant get in to recovery )
Much Appreciated
Rattanak
forget stock.
as for odin try version 3.07 http://d-h.st/4VU
been using this version for years. devices flashed gt-p5210 gt-n8013 sm-t210r gt-p3113 sm-t530nu
for recovery search forums and read OP's completely as well as threads.
as a thought goto the gnabo rom thread and follow complete instructions.
again read the OP completely as well as the thread
Maybe this post over on the S4 page could help us:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2744061
I will be giving this a try tomorrow.
I tried odin 3.07 and have tried most of the roms here. The issue is with the failed kitkat updates as the bootloader is locked - from that point forward going anywhere seems to be the issue. This downgrade might bring the device back to life - watch this space I guess.
Progress
well it was because of the EMMC It self..
i try to JTAG it with z3x JTAG and it not responding... im working on it and will back for more detail...
Regards
If this happened after a failed KitKat update then only KitKat Roms will work for you, officially it can't be dowgraded, I just need to know if your device is branded or unlocked, as far as I can tell, you flashed a Rom that is not meant specifically for your device, it flashed the boot.img then failed to flash system.img, later on when you tried to fix it,you get failure at the boot.img stage as you can't downgrade it anymore through Odin, if your device is unlocked you should be able to flash any KitKat stock rom from Sammobile for any region not necessarily your region.

No I'm not saying that it's locked, I'm asking you whether it's locked or not, do you have to use a certain network/carrier at your country ? If you can use sim cards from different carriers / service providers then your device is not locked

OK great then you have no problem using any of sammobile firmwares for the GT-N8000 international version.
So totally non committal, but I managed to fix my Note 10.1 today I hope it works for you.
I had been trying to upgrade to android 4.4.2 using a custom rooted rom but got stuck in a boot loop with my only option as download mode (no CWM, no reset, nothing just bootloop download only).
As a last resort I downloaded a Note 10.1Android 4.0.4 pit file and flashed it from odin 3.07 (pit file selected, Auto Reboot ticked, Re-partition ticked, F.Reset Time ticked - everything else unticked). Flashed the pit file, let the tablet reset and then it picked up the android update as though all was fine. The device is now working fine and without issue.
The .pit file i used is attached. Cant promise it will work, but I hope you have the same luck I do.

Hello, I am in the same situation with my Note n8000 from China, It only can access to download mode. I have tried everything, using all version odin, Heimdall and adb, and the results are: nand write error, failed to unpack recived packet and device offline. Still on samsung logo all the time, even charging it. I unplugged the battery cable even for more than two hours and nothing. I tried many roms, from sammobile, cwd... I don't know what else I can do... please help.
Judged by your post and NAND write failure means you have damaged the NAND memory and require probably a new motherboard .
But search for Nand failure fixes first .

G965U and G965U1 Firmware Links Here

For those who aren't already aware, G965U is the model number of all of the US carrier versions of the S9+. The G965U1 is the model number of the same device, but sold by Samsung SIM unlocked and with no carrier bloatware. Firmware is 100% interchangeable among these models: any U or U1 firmware version can be flashed to any U or U1 device at any time, assuming that you're not trying to downgrade the bootloader. A "U to U" or "U1 to U1" flash does not require a factory reset, but changing from one firmware to the other will require one. Also, U firmware is identical for the 4 base files (AP, BL, CP, CSC) for each individual build, no matter which carrier it comes from. So if you download 2 different carrier versions of the exact same build, the 4 base files will be identical. Where the firmware differs is in the USERDATA file - that's where the carrier bloatware and customizations reside.
Manual Odin flashing is designed for those who:
- want to manually update to a newer version of U firmware on their U device, either because they don't want to wait for their carrier's OTA or because OTAs aren't working on their device, or a different carrier got a new feature/patch before they did
- want to flash U1 firmware to their U device
- want to convert from U1 firmware to carrier U firmware
- want to convert from one carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware) to a different carrier's U firmware (with all apps and bloatware)
For those who aren't already aware, anyone can now download firmware for almost any Samsung device any time that they want, via SamFirm or Frija. There are threads and info about them here on XDA so I won't waste time explaining - do a search if you're not already familiar with these tools. But they only provide whatever the latest/newest/current version is - nothing older. I pay for a subscription to a site that gets the official releases (usually) before they hit SamFirm/Frija, so that's where my files come from. However, I don't have unlimited bandwidth on the site, and it's also quite time consuming to download the files, zip them up, and upload them to AFH. And, I do threads like this for every single Sx and Note x model - so I won't be uploading every single version. The only full builds that I upload are ones where I get access to a new bootloader and/or Android version early, before they hit SamFirm/Frija.
This is not a "beginner's guide to Odin flashing" -type post/thread, so I won't list basic, step-by-step flashing instructions. My threads are geared towards those who already know what they're doing. If you're new to manually flashing Samsung firmware (or haven't done it in a long time), I recommend you consult one of those "beginner's" guides- there are tons of them here on XDA.
Odin 3.13.1 3B Patched is required for flashing these.
Happy flashing!
U firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=257072
U1 firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=257075
Notes:
- DON'T QUOTE THE OP WHEN YOU REPLY, kthx
- I have lots of threads just like this one for other Samsung flagships, if it interests you. For those who have already made use of my previous threads for a different device and are upgrading to an S9+, welcome back
- My zips are compressed extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc
- My naming method for folders on AFH is: build - bootloader - Android version
So "SAT - 1 - 9.0" means the full build number ends in SAT, it's bootloader version 1, and it's Android 9.0. When bootloader and Android versions increment, the first build to have those changes will have its folder notated appropriately.
- HOME CSC file keeps data intact; using the other CSC will wipe data. Flashing USERDATA will also wipe data.
- Since AT&T doesn't allow their firmware to be publicly available (for any of their devices), I'll try to always upload at least one USERDATA per bootloader increment for AT&T. I'll also upload any full builds if AT&T is the only carrier to get that specific build, because you won't be able to find the files anywhere else.
- For identifying USERDATAS, and to know what region/CSC to use in SamFirm/Frija:
ATT = AT&T (not available via SamFirm/Frija)
BST = Boost Mobile
CCT = Xfinity Mobile (Comcast)
CHA = Spectrum Mobile (Charter)
SPR = Sprint
TMB = T-Mobile
TMK = Metro PCS
USC = US Cellular
VZW = Verizon (available via SamFirm/Frija, but Manual Entry is required - Auto will not work)
XAA = U1 firmware
- the correct procedure for switching from one carrier's firmware to another is:
1. Flash full U1 firmware package including non HOME CSC
2. Upon boot, insert a SIM of the carrier whose firmware you want
3. Watch for the popup that says "reboot to apply new carrier settings" etc, and do it
4. After that restart completes, reboot back to Download mode and flash the full U firmware package, with the USERDATA file of the carrier whose firmware you want
iBowToAndroid said:
Use latest Odin to flash these. The large files will be your 4 part firmware and then grab your desired USERDATA as well. I'll continue to add more versions and more USERDATAs over time.
Happy flashing!
U firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=257072
U1 firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=257075
Notes:
- HOME CSC file keeps data intact; using the other one will wipe data
- SamFirm still works - that's where I'm getting these from
- AIO = Cricket
TMK = Metro PCS
USC = US Cellular

There is no such thing as carrier-specific firmware anymore. Starting with the S8, it's all the same, regardless of carrier. USERDATA is where you get your bloatware from. USERDATA for TMB is already uploaded. Full RBG build is 75% uploaded as of right now

That depends on the firmware that you flash, not the USERDATA. USERDATA only applies to U models. The unlocked model is U1.

No, they don't need to be md5. All that does is forces Odin to check the hash, which makes flashing even longer. All the files were md5 when I originally downloaded them, but I always remove the md5 for efficiency's sake.
Try a different USB port on your PC - mine will act weird from time to time and do that same thing. I use a different port and it goes fine

Dang it. I was hoping that since it's an unlocked model, it might be possible. Guess it's been longer than I thought since I've tried modding on an android phone (my moto z force droid was totally locked down).

Well I have the FN model. However I have flashed the J330f kernel and baseband to the device(I'm a developer for this device) and still have NFC.
Typically options like NFC are enabled in the CSC portion of the firmware. To activate NFC you likely need to flash CSC from FN firmware or modify the CSC firmware config.

Ok, thank you. I am dowloading J3 FN version and will flash CSC. Will update tommorow
update: just downloaded the newest firmware but its an one file, do you have CSC extracted by any chance?

You can extract it yourself using 7zip.
Unpack the Md5. One of files inside will be cache.img
This is the CSC. Repack it to tar with 7zip( no compression, store only) and flash in ODIN.

I will give some tries, but not at the moment. Don't really need it
Second attempt. Maybe I should try to reflash everything with newest F firmware, but FN CSC?
edit#3: Download section says "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed (cashe)".
edit, i downloaded 320FN not 330FN, might be it. Ill update

XmitData_write usually means a communication error. Bad cable, cable too long, bad port etc.
Also Ensure OEM_UNLOCK is enabled in developer settings before flashing anything.

I flashed everything one more time with CSC from FN, but still no NFC. Is it possible that Orange has "little different" hardware or hardware-level blocked? I've seen once Galaxy S6 I think without data sharing (it was some UK vendor firmware).
You've got screenshots in attachments, in fact in Polish but you should be able to check it.

Using a terminal app or adb shell type the following :
getprop
Look for:
[sys.nfc.support]: [1]

Nope, no support for me. That's strange, all sites state it does support for NFC. Sadly but my phone is not listed with spec on Orange.pl anymore so I can't compare. Maybe one day I will call them for explanation coz Im curious.
Thanks mate for your help

Convert AT&T S7 to a Verizon S7

I've been on forums enough to know that this will be an annoying question, but I'm having a hard time figuring this out. I just got my friends SM-G930A, an AT&T version of the phone. I have been reading and it appears that the two versions of the phone are the exact same hardware, so that means if we could simply flash the Verizon software on this phone everything would sunshine and rainbows. How would I go about doing this? What would prevent me from doing this? Please any suggestions are welcome!
It'll flash without issue, but network performance may vary using one carriers phone on another's network due to band support.
You can get the G930V firmware from sites like updato.com, sammobile.com, or using samfirmtool, G930U is also an option.
You'll need a patched Odin to get around mismatch errors https://forum.xda-developers.com/and...-13-1-t3762572

I was originally under the impression they're all identical, but according to this thread there are some modem differences https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/help/att-sm-s930a-to-sprint-sm-s930u-t3913347 so YMMV

You are awesome! Looks like that first link to the patched Odin doesn't work anymore, would you be able to give me a working one? Thank you so much though this is good to hear! Even if it doesn't work I have another phone I could use.

Never mind on the link, I went and looked through your posts and found it. One more thing I need to bother you about is, when I flash it it says "Unsupport dev_type" on the phone, and Complete(Write) operation failed on ODIN. Any ideas?
From a google search that seems to be most commonly cause by flashing firmware for the wrong SoC, which firmware did you download and from where?
Other posts say make sure you run Odin as admin, and also on your phone go to setting> security and turn off 'reactivation lock'.

By 'reactivation lock' do you by chance mean OEM unlock? And should I allow the device to be OEM unlocked or should I not allow that?
Different to OEM lock, its a security setting that will trigger FRP lock if you flash. But it's not an option on my own device, I just found it online.

Yeah I can't find anything like that but when I'm in download mode it does say:
FRP LOCK : ON
So I assume that is something I need to address.
EDIT:
I'm using the patched 3.13 version of ODIN and it gets stuck on boot.img, but I assume that has something to do with FRP LOCK : ON
EDIT 2:
I might have soft bricked my phone actually. It appears that by flashing the new operating system while FRP LOCK was ON, it won't boot, recovery mode creates a boot loop, and ODIN is the only function I can effectively access. What would you suggest?

Try again the stock firmware the original carrier of the phone (AT&T?), or restoring with Samsung Kies/Smart Switch
This thread has a few other methods https://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/help/frp-lock-odin-firmware-lord-help-t3191927 (although for a different model, so dont try the linked firmware)

The only AT&T firmware I can find is this one:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/at...-g930a-stock-oreo-odin-g930aucu4cre4-t3803858
But the issue is the AP isn't in md5 format, and the BL is not wanting to cooperate.
Got it to go into a mode that says:
"Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software."
So I downloaded both Kies and Smart Switch, but they both say "Unsupported Device" so I'm not quite sure why it has me use the software when it's not supported.
I also tried at downloading Samfirm but it wants the serial number of the phone, which I do not have.
What would be your next move?
EDIT: This might help the diagnosis, when I flash the full firmware I get an error on the phone that says, "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 8 > Binary 4, [1] eMMC write fail: aboot" and that seems to be the primary issue going on. I found another firmware for the USA AT&T and this keeps happening so that appears to be the main issue. A quick Google search tells me that my phone is a 8 binary and the ROM I'm flashing is a 4 binary. I honestly don't know what that means but I understand that the two numbers being different are the issue. Could you point me in the right direction for finding the right firmware?
I've used sideload before, any chance we can use sideload or does that require we be able to mount /system and have a ROM already installed and all that?
Thank you for your help!
Samfirmtool should work, I only ever recall having to enter the model number
Otherwise you can get it from
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7/SM-G930U/ATT/
or
https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?q=SM-G930U&rpp=15&r=ATT&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1
The G930A now uses G930U firmware releases
That binary error I believe is because you're trying to flash a BL file older than what your phone has, and you can't downgrade bootloader

I was able to get all of them to flash but AP, which hangs up on system.img.ext4 when flashed individually, with just AP checked. The model number has changed to SM-G930U, instead of SM-G930A, which it was before. So I know we're moving in the right direction, but I still can't get the AP to flash, and it either gets hung up on recovery.img or system.img.ext4, depending on what version of ODIN I use. It no longer gives me any mismatched model number errors though because of the new model number. We're heading in the right direction. Any ideas on it being held up though?
To confirm what you said earlier, you're using this patched Odin? https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/patched-odin-3-13-1-t3762572

I believe so but I went ahead and re-downloaded it and tried it again just to make sure I wasn't having a lapse in memory. I set it all up and ran it again and this is my log so far:

<ID:0/003> NON-HLOS.bin
and then it hangs there for what seems like forever. The model number has changed to G930U instead of G930A like it was so we're moving in the right direction. But it sits at that NON-HLOS.bin forever.
And just in case it matters my screen on my phone says:

SM-N950U mismatch AP CP and CSC, Cant flash official firmware( Malware )

So i bought this refurbished note 8 (SM-950U) T-mobile varient.
at first everything ran fine until i signed in my google account, thats when the phone starting doing random stuff, like opening playstore and downloading apps without notifying.
well that was the least of my concern, when i tried to update my device, it gave an error "Processing failed" as it failed to register the device.
This is what is in my device right now.
AP: N950USQS4CRE1
CP: N950USQU5CRG7
CSC: N9500ZZH2CRD5
AP and CP seemed ok as both are from the same models, but that CSC file is from SM-N9500 model and as far as i know that is from chinese region and from dual sim models.
The next thing i tried was flashing it through odin with stock firmware that i downloaded from Sammobile.
The files i download are these "
Build date:Thu, 26 Jul 2018 04:01:45 +0000
Security Patch Level: 2018-07-01
Product code: TMB
PDA:N950USQU5CRG7
CSC :N950UOYN5CRG7 "
cant post the links here
i tried to match atleast the build number of my device to the files i downloaded.
After loading the file in odin, connected my phone (turned on debugging mode and removed all of my accounts),
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<ID:0/004> Odin engine v(ID:3.1303)..

<ID:0/004> Initialzation..
<ID:0/004> FAIL! (DeviceInfo)
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
<ID:0/004> Removed!!
so after researching the internet i found that there were reports of malware in samsung devices in certain regions, and i am certain that i have got one in my phone, so i am really scared to put my passwords or data in it technically rendering it useless.
i cant return the phone, so im stuck with this.
Dude, try flashing TWRP and delete everything, the entire OS and then try to reflash stock ROM with Odin or just flash a custom ROM with TWRP, hope it'll help!

hello there,
i've bought a refurbished Galaxy Note 8 and encountered similar problem (missmatch between AP, CP, and CSC)
and my camera results is really really poor, at first i think there were hardware problem and i've tried to change it with the new galaxy note 8 camera and the results is still same.
is there any suggestion regarding this issue ?
did i need to flash my device to its stock firmware ? if it so, what is the correct firmware for my device ?
this is information that shown when i dialed *#1234#:
AP : N9500ZHU4DSD1
CP : N950USQU5DSC1
CSC : N9500ZZH4DSD1
thank you for your helps,
is there a fix were you guys able to flash original OS n950U rom? I also noticed my phone can't run 4g
