S6 - SM-G920i Firmware

Hey everyone,
I have a g920idvu1aod1 Samsung that I bought off of eBay, pretty sure it came from Latin America. Anyways, is there an OTA update or a firmware I can flash to get to 5.1.1? Everyone else seems to have this update but when I go into settings, there's nothing.
Any ideas?

India currently has the latest 5.1.1 firmware for the 920i. Download from: http://samsung-updates.com/details/48408/Galaxy_S6_SM-G920I/SM-G920I/INU/G920IDVU2COF8.html and flash with Odin.

The phone isn't from India though, like I said in the OP. It's from Latin America.. will it still work if I flash..? Because I believe that it's a different baseband version. Mine ends in AOD1.. the one you gave me ends in COF8.

But I got the phone from Latin America, like I said in the OP. My firmware version ends in AOD1, the one you gave me is COF8.. will it still work?

Doesn't matter, still works.
The letters at the end are just the version number.
So long as it is for a 920i you're sweet to go. (My phone is from Australia, works fine on Indian firmware.)
edit: This link here should be faster to download the Samsung-updates, it's the same one I used on my phone.: http://d-h.st/YOpx
Use the "Download Now" button, not the normal "Download" Button for a direct link rather then a dodgy looking .exe file

Alright, I'll try it out tonight! Do I just put this file in the "AP" section of odin and I'm good to go?
Do I have to be in "downloading" mode? Sorry, I'm a noob

Spot on mate. Put phone in Download mode, then flash with ap section of Odin.
Backup anything you want to keep first as this will erase absolutely everything on your phone and update your bootloader, baseband, modem etc. to the latest versions and start up like a brand new phone again.

Dunno, I gave up on it personally and just went back to swiping to unlock.

Flash this stock 51.1 ROM via odin.

Dunno, only used it for 5 minutes.
Basically just wanted the new baseband, bootloader and modem then flashed back to a modified bogg for the system itself.

ODIN failure when trying to reinstall Stock Firmware

Hi guys
I think that i'm doing things right...
1) I have Samsung USB drivers installed
2) I'm using Odin3.11
3) I'm using the correct params for 7.0 ( BL,AP,CP, Home_CSC in Odin )
3) Odin Options ( F.ResetTime, Auto-reboot,Repartion) all unticked
4) On the S7 USB debugging is On
I put the tel in DL mode and here is the list of what Odin spits at me...once launched
Log Screen
-Odin Checking v 3.1101
-File analysis
-Skip file for home binary
-param.bin
-modem_debug.bin
-Home binary Download
-Setup Connection
-Initialisation
-Set PIT for mappjng
-Firmware update Start
-Single Download
-sboot.bin
-Nand Write Start
-cm.bin
FAIL!
Am I missing someting or did something wrong ?
Thks in advance !!

Try the newer version of ODIN
Code:
https://mega.nz/#!jUgRiTSa!fnAVwr7yFi4dlPk4V0oQ5DuoFe3iiG0jH-ws91IHOPc
Leave ODIN as it is, don't change any settings, just add the 4 sections of firmware and hit Start

Edit: Derp, wrong forum VZW won't help you The instructions in mine only say to use ap, cp, and csc but archive does include all. Wondering if you are just flashing more than needed?

I also experienced this yesterday. Let me share to you what I did. It might help.
1. Download the stock firmware.
2. Go to download mode.
3. Flash in odin the AP from the stock firmware and csc (not home). For BL and CP, I downloaded the latest files from this link: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=95565 (i got it from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/how-to/guide-onelatest-stock-fw-csc-root-t3702963)
I hope it works.

How to flash new models stock firmware using odin 3.12?

Hi, I know this is basic for the developers but it confuses me. I used to use Odin v3.07 to flash stock firmware which comes in one md5 file. Now with Odin v3.12 and the new phone models, the firmware zip file comes in 5 md5 files:
1. The first one starts with HOME_CSC
2. The second one starts with CSC
3. The third one starts with CP
4. The fourth one starts with BL
5. The fifth one starts with AP
I know I should put 3, 4, 5 files in the corresponding place. But the problem is with file 1 and file 2.

Should I select one of them for the CSC button? but which one? and what's the difference between them?
Thank you.

Hi,
The csc is to leave the terminal as it just left the factory
The home_csc leaves you the terminal as you currently have only updating the rest of the firmware.
I hope you have explained me well because my English is not very good.

File 1 only with the rest.
Leave file 2 alone unless you want your device factory resetting.

Can't update to Pie

Hi guys, so i got the Pie update notification but at the end of the downloading, so before installing, it says that the file is invalid and i can't do pretty much anything else.. I also tried to install the update manually with odin but it got stucks at the middle of flashing doing nothing.
Also performed a factory reset and i've got the same problems..
I tried to update it like 50 times (?) in a month
I think i have to return it.. Nice Samsung as always ._.

Do NOT tick any extra boxes. The only options to be ticked are F.Reset Time and Auto-Reboot.
Try to use the latest version of Odin (3.13.3) and do NOT put any pit file or re-partition

Do not update to android pie. Many feature in your device will not run well. And you can't downgrade your android because the android pie lock the bootloader so you can't downgrade your version.. Trust me...
