reactivation lock is on
Can't get any other details as phone won't start up properly.
My mum got a new phone so is giving her old s6 to my little brother. I did a factory reset and couldn't log back in with my mum's Samsung account, so we changed her password and tried to log in after reset and it's just not working.
I tried smart switch emergency recovery but it just said device not recognised.
I tried to flash the original stock firware amd the latest stock firmware and and latest stock firmware and it never worked.
I tried with different cables and an original Samsung cable and still to no avail. Odin fails on "complete write operation failed"
I am at a loss as what to do now as the phone now says "an error occurred while updating the device software. Use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch PC software"
But I have tried and it says device not recognised!
I feel I've run out of options now any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advanced for any help I receive.
Have a good day everyone

You can do it. You absolutely need to find the right stock ROM for it and it will work. I was stuck in this situation about a month ago, it's all about getting the right ROM

What carrier is it through? And make sure you download Odin 3.12.7, it's not the newest version of Odin but seems to be the most stable

I realize i'm stupid af but here's what happened: I was trying to flash a custom rom to my SM-G920F galaxy s6 and accidentally uninstalled my OS. This morning I attempted to flash G920FXXU2POGN to my galaxy 6, I have no idea what the original software was. Everything was going fine until the last minute when hidden.img appeared in the odin log and the flash failed. My device now reads: An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software. However, neither smart switch of kies 3.0 support my device!! My device is still bootable into download mode. Please please please help. I've only had this thing for a day and I've already broken it.

Hi there, you should download smart switch and use emergency firmware recovery, From there you should click 'more' then click emergency software recovery. Key in your device SM-G920F then input your serial number (Found on your device Box, remember to connect your phone on download mode) then voila, it should download and install the latest firmware for you. hope it helps!

First of all i want to say two things:
1. This thread was opened after reading 179 similar threads and browsed all 260 pages of q&a answers
on the galaxy tab 2 and other several threads on Samsung products with similar symptoms.
2. Thank you in advance to however is able to resolve this issues, not only for me, but for several others.
the section is full of similar problems with no answer whatsoever.
The story:
My Samsung p5110 WiFi only (stock firmware), started to restart randomly and at one point froze at the Samsung logo.
I was able to enter in download mode, and with odin i "managed" to load the firmware for p5100.
And that was the mistake. at restart started to display: “Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.
Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again“. But kies does not connect and recognize the device at all.
so out of the question to salvage the device in that mode.
Odin still recognizes the device, so i was able to load several stock firmwares:
P5110XXBLH4_P5110OXXBLH3_HOME.tar.md5
P5110XWALD4_P5110OXXALD5_HOME.tar.md5
P5110XXDNB1_P5110COADNB1_HOME.tar.md5
everything goes ok, it says pass, but there is no restarting, the screen goes black. when i turn it on
the same thing: "firmware upgrade.....
Tried to load CWM and TWRP recovery in order to delete everything in the device, installed ok but
no effect, it is not launching, only: "firmware upgrade....
I want to point out that USB mode was to enabled do to the fact that the tablet broke so it was not
planned, i have uninstalled kies and installed the samsung and omap drivers now, same results, and tried
all the usb ports.
I am running out of ideas and other suggestion i haven't found on this site up until now, so any
constructive help and comments will be welcomed by me and more than likely by the others in
my situation.
use odin in this way

well i had the same problem with my GT-P3113
there is one way i know to solve this which worked for me.
1. flash TWRP/CWM
a)first make sure that you find the rooted md5 firmware for your device.
[this is my 5th post so i cannot add links. so you can always search in xda for other threads regarding your device's rooted md5 so that you can flash using odin.]
b)now flash the rooted md5 using odin
c) flash TWRP/CWM Using odin(i would prefer CWM)
d)then downlaod a custom rom for your device and place it in your sd card.
e)flash it using your recovery
f)now try rebooting and you should go into the new rom
g)now check usb debugging in the settings>about device>touch on build number 7 times>you will see developer options>check usb debugging.
h)now try flashing the original stock firmware using odin
CONGRATS YOU HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM OF YOUR DEVICE
NOTE:if you still have any problem with booting or if you are stuck in the boot logo try going to recovery and do a factory reset.
if still you have any questions let me know.
Similar problem but odin doesn't recognise device
Hello guys. I have big issue with this. I tried also flashing from sd new cwm since its factory but it start process and than say signature verification failed. Trying also different roms but no success. I can not do basically anything. Even for sdk tool computer must recognise device (I do have drivers and they work with all other devices ) and still it doesn't recognise. I am out of options. Please help?
Hello,
I had the same problem with my tab 2..I solved it the same way in this video..
Here's the link: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0NXBN9Z63TY
---------- Post added at 06:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 PM ----------
If this didnt work out you can flash a custom rom through cwm.
Here try this rom.

If still any problem persists pls send me a message.
Last night my mom asked me if I could format her tablet, because it was too slow (Even for that device), and had a lot of crap on it.
So... I took a look at it and started to google about the tablet. Turns out it hadn't been upgraded to the latest firmware; it was on Android 4.1.2, and as it says here: "sammobile.com/tag/gt-p3100/" the latest available firmware is 4.2.2 .
Thus I tried to update it via software update on the device, but it turned out it wasn't able to update because the tablet has been modified. Then I remembered that a long time ago I tried to root it without much success, but didn't try again because I got bored.
Then I downloaded the 4.2.2 firmware UK version (P3110XXDMH1_P3110OXADMH1_BTU), and flashed it via Odin. Sadly it went wrong and a "Failed!" sign appeared. I can't remember what step failed, but it booted anyways, but this time my PC recognized the device as a "GT-P3110". I thought that maybe it was because the UK firmware was a Vodafone version, so I downloaded the Russian brandless version (P3100XWDMK1_P3100SERDMK2_SER) and flashed; it failed again, but this time the tablet didn't turn on normally.
I can't boot it neither normally, recovery or Download mode, it shows only a message that says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again", which as I read on other android sites and this forum, it's a soft brick message.
Then I tried to do as it said, installed Kies and tried to fix what I've done, but when I enter the device data (Model and "S/N") it shows a message saying that the model info cannot be verified and that the device initialization can't continue.

So... This is as much info as I can remember about what could've gone wrong, please help me, if I can't fix it, mom will continue to be a liiiiittle too much angry
Beforehand thank you very much.
PS: I had to write wrong the links because I created this account just because I had this problem, so I can't post links.
Woah this happen to me once, but i try to flash it again and its work, this happen when i chose the wrong firmware zip, but it work when i instal the right one, maybe u flash wrong firmware bro, try flash the right rom bro
this message is like download mode, you can connect to pc and flash any firmware via odin
Yes, as said you can go in Download Mode and reflash another good ROM ! Make sure the .tar.md5 is not corrupted.
Been running Carhd Rom for a while now with zero problems.
Last night, my battery was down to about 15% so I turned off the phone, until I went upstairs a couple hours later to put it on charge.
Problem is, phone did not restart as normal...instead a message in red came up.
Something like:
"Custom Binary (RECOVERY) Blocked by FRP Lock."
I've tried to flash stock firmware for my UK Vodafone S8 Plus, but then I get this error message:
"Error!
Device does not have DRK, please install DrK first.
Press any button."
Can someone please help me out, ive been trying literally all night and can't find a solution.
really really would appreciate some help here.
cheers
Matt
Also, if I try to flash TWRP using Odin....it says "blocked by FRP Lock.

USE SMART SWITCH ON PC VIA USB TO UTILIZE THE EMERGENCY SOFTWARE RECOVERY. To fix this problem first u have to download SMART SWITCH then install it
Then click emergency software recovery and don't plug your phone to your computer yet then enter your phone model and s/n after it will explains the
rest
APPARENTLY IT LOCKED YOU OUT ASSUMING SOMEONE TRIED TO BYPASS SECURITY. YOU WILL NEED TO KNOW YOURE IMEI or other info only you know. GOOD LUCK. THIS HAPPENS TO MANY. JUST DO IT THROUGH SMART SWITCH ON PC TO DO EMERGENCY RECOVERY. IT MUST WORK.

Try this, it might get "SmartSwitch"going!
1. Completely uninstall (with temp file) Smart Switch.
2. Uninstall Samsung USB driver for mobile phones.
3. Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package
4. Install the latest SmartSwitch.
Good luck.
cheers mate...i've done that and smartswitch installed, but i'm stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S8+ Boot screen with purple writing in top left, which says...
"NAD: Passed
NAD ACAT: Passed
APMB Provisioned"
Any ideas?
cheers

I've downloaded the correct stock firmware and flash it through Odin and all installs ok, but when phone reboots it says the following...

Any ideas?

Corrupted image when downloading try downloading a more reliable firmware to restore also may want to update Odin , Samsung is like iPhone it's hard to mess up restoring
Redownload the stock rom using SamFirm tool or updato.com. If ODIN keeps getting stuck change the USB cable. Do not use generic cables to flash roms or this will happen. Happened me twice, I changed the cable to a brand new stock one (purchased at the official service) and the problem was fixed
