How I can create a samsung combination file ? - General Questions and Answers

Today I had a problem with FRP protection and tried to bypass it and I did some searching on google and I installed Combination Firmware on the phone and I successfully skipped the protection anyway. I want to create a combination file, but I found that I need two files in an AP file and a sboot.bin in BL but I did not find the sboot.bin file in A705FN and G532F, so is there anyway to resolve this problem ?
A705FN: BL file

I had the same problem and struggled to find this same file . And I found the answer ..it was really easy .. download 7zip app and install it. Try opening the same firmware file as you did in WinRAR .It should now show the file you are looking for . WinRAR hides these for some reason is all I can figure . I was unable to find how to enable this in their settings. I tried 7zip just for the hell of it and it just worked. Let me know if this solves your problem . I was able to create my combination file and fix my frp lock on my phone successfully . It's the one I'm on now writing you this message . Good luck . Peace .

[Guide | Tutorial] Change Boot Logo of Samsung device without Root access!

This is j7108's
is from 5.1.1 but should can use in 6.0.1 as well:
https://mega.nz/#!nNkliAQb!VvopPnS5Zkk15Mhlikaixmg6zWbhyfS_xXe2unSmRqo
Boot Logo =/= Boot animation
Tool you need:
Windows Pc : 7zip, Odin, maybe a linux OS as well
Please note that I'm not responsible if you brick your device, flash back original BL_{firmware version}.tar.md5 to unbrick it
1. You need to get BL_{firmware version}.tar.md5 from your stock firmware, I get from SmartSwitch/Kies which has 4 .tar.md5 files
If your stock firmware consist of only 1, you might can extract it, not entirely sure how. Do share in the comment if you know.
2. You should open BL_{firmware version}.tar.md5 inside linux environment and modify param.bin because the tar contain permission information
Inside param.bin contain Logo.jpg which you can replace it
(rename the param.bin to param.tar so you can open it, after replace the picture, check the permission, tar it, rename it back to param.bin)
Note: The order(cm, sboot then param) and the permission inside the tar is extremely important. Once messed you will brick your phone

}
Please share your method how to pack tar on Windows as well. I don't know how to set the permission in windows.
3. Once done repack the 3 files to anynameBL.tar note the .md5 is not needed. If you want to use .tar.md5, Odin need to verify it and it need extra steps
I apologies for lack of linux knowledge, I can't provide comprehensive method. All these steps are simplest possible approach.
We are almost done, now before you flash the Bootloader that you just repack, you need to make sure Frp Lock(if your phone has this feature) is OFF else you will brick your device.
To close Frp Lock, enable Developer Options(google it for step), enable OEM Unlock
Put your device to Odin mode, and you can start flashing
enjoy your new favorite stylish boot logo and turn off OEM Unlock to secure your device back
you write "The order(cm, sboot then param) inside the tar is extremely important" but in the screenshot there is another order.
And in some BL-images which i examined, it is always sboot, param and then cm!

i cant turn on my phone for now
any solution please
Sorry, maybe I am being dumb but isn't the md5 file just used to verify size? You need to flash the .Tar not .Tar.md5?
Anyway. Try a different USB port, cable and even computer. I've had similar problems like this and changing the cable oddly worked.
I had the same problem. I solved it by extracting firmware with WinRar, delete the hidden.img file (contains carrier bloat and blaha, no worry about that...), repack with 7-Zip as tar file. Then voila, no problem!

Solution : you must flash vodafone firmware with vdf pit (bcoz hidden is 200M) .

Just open the file with 7-zip and delete hidden.img and flash again with odin
Anyone got a mirror for the VOD-G920FXXU5EQBG firmware? Sammobile is down and there's no way I'm paying £15 for a software update..

I've tried winrar, 7zip and the stock windows 10 file explorer to extract the zip file . Does anyone know why this happens and how to fix it?

As far as I'm aware the update for pie beta should be installed via stock recovery. It is not a Odin flashable file
And this is why I suggested you not try the upgrade. Very easy, and I mean, very ease to brick your phone if you don't know what you're doing.

Because you don't flash the oneui. You put the update.zip file on your external sd card, power off your phone, while powered off - press and hold the bixby button, press and hold the volume up button, continue holding them and press and hold the power button until you get into the recovery screen. Continue to follow the instructions on the page you linked to me...but these instructions were one that page.

Right there is no full rom for one ui yet. you can odin clean to the latest oreo update but then you must flash from sd or sideload from pc to apply the one ui update.

S8+ Bricked while rooting

I know, I know. I´m a stupid c*nt.
So I booted in download/odin mode, loaded TWRP onto it. Touchscreen wouldn´t work. Rebooted into download mode/screen again, loaded default firmware on it because TWRP wouldn´t work.
Now it only shows this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(found picture on the internet).
Can´t turn it off, I only can reboot it by holding down ´Power+Volume down´.
Emergency recovery / Device initialization in SmartSwitch doesn´t work.
Model is SM-G955F - S8+
Is there anything that I can do now besides buying a new phone?
Alright, I found out that I can reset the phone using Odin3 and a .tar
Keep this thread as archive in case someone needs it in the future.
Hello, same problem, can you please describe you did step by step?

Just connect your phone to your PC, open Odin, load a .tar file into AP (e.g. twrp .tar file) and click start. Should automatically restart the phone and fix the problem.
Remove hidden.img from the md5 file. The error you are getting is because the modem.img isnt flashed. You van use 7zip to edit the files.
Sorry im not at home atm so cant tell which file it is.

Don't tell to load .tar because not all .tar will work/ were you saying we should load Amy file? Well!.
Here is solution: The easiest way; put phone to download mode and open z3x "read pit" Done!

How to use Samloader to download updates for your Samsung Galaxy device
Samloader provides a hassle-free way to download the latest firmware for your Samsung Galaxy device. It works on Linux and macOS as well.
www.xda-developers.com
It stuck here since 2hours
you forgot modem/baseband in CP slot.
edit: is that tablet wifi only? there are two models out there SM-P610 or SM-P613?
Yes the tablet is only wifi! SM-P610
try again it takes about ~ 5 min usually. does it stuck always on dtbo?
Has it something to do with the CSC Code? I dont know what exactly i put the code for germany "DBT"
in case you (unintentionally) flashed wrong CSC Odin3 should prevent flashing. you can however try again with patched Odin or Heimdall.
you could also try middle man slow usb 2.0 hub (or usb 2.0 port on pc)
after couple of months i tried it again. The Display on the tablet writes: An error has occured while updating the device software.....
the patched Odin 3.14.1 says "BOOT" and
.....
<ID:0/003>recovery.img
stuck there for a good amount of time
I recommend to try heimdall and manually flash each partition on its own. you need the mapping for file name = partition label, this information can extracted from pit file.
