hello there xda users
i have recently bricked my phone and managed to reflash the firmware, but, i had to add the bootloader file with the split firmware package.
what i want to do is install the latest XXLD3 firmware on top of the current s5830ixxkk5/gingerbread.xxlk1 firmware package but im worried because i am thinking that the bootloader file has to be the same as the firmware if you know what i mean. can i install the xxld3 on the xxkk5 bootloader without bricking my phone again? any help would be appreciated. thanks

I think you can try by flashing complete (3 files package) of XXLD3 via odin & then flash only the bootloader file of XXKK5 via odin. I have not tried it before and i'm not sure but i think it should work. In worst case you can always revert to XXKK5 via odin, as long as you can access the download/odin mode :good:

I need help with flashing stock firmware. Well, I flashed my device with some turkish firmware who had 4 files and I did that via Odin. When I realised that I have turkish firmware I downloaded stock version which consists only 1 file and tried to flash my device trough Odin (followed procedure for flashing with one file) and it wont work. All I get is endless reboot loop on my device. What should I do? Please help!

Try again with wipe data/chace and wipe dalvik cache(from advance from in CWM)
Reflesh your stock firmware.
I high recommend you to rewrite stock 2.3.4 XXXXKPI(European)or specific for you region.
Anyway more details in this thread from Sammobile
KPI version have 4 files but was by far best version for me that i've used.
Also be carefull to load corect packs for boot/csc/modem/phone:

If you are european shall not care if it is Turkish or Russian,just change leanguage.
I want to reflash my phone because KIES wont upgrade stock firmware after I flashed with Odin. It says that "this device cannot upgrade over KIES". It's common problem and I heard that people were solving that with reverting original stock firmware for their country. I dont know exactly am I right but I wanna try. Thanx!
Its very buddy, you can search it on this forum. You can find it here.
Guys,
i really need help....someone......please
I have the galaxy s i9000
It is on stock 2.1 update 1
i have rooted it....but the sad part is that it is the model that came with the bootloader locked....
I have, however, found a way to solve that.....
My question is:
I could unlock the bootloader..using the 3-button fix...which involves installing a tar file of the secondary bootloader using odin....
Then, i thought i can download the zip file for cwm for my device...and flash it using the recovery....
How can i do that??
Is it a viable option?
And lastly, can i install cm 7 on stock 2.1
If not, please please please help me out....it is really urgent...
Someone....please!!
Cheers
I think that you have to flash a JVU with Odin and get a CFROOT kernel. If you begin to this you should be able to flash other roms.
HI!
I have a BIG issue...... i coud not flash ANY custom rom via TWRP..... only original firmware by Odin,
my phone is on EPG2 now but before in 5.1.1 LP, i did downgraded my device by flashing LP BL and modem via Odin before then flash a LP original firmware.

Maybe need flash a .pit file? or change the TWRP?

Hey there, I ran into a similar problem and my problem was the reactivation lock under settings, security, I had it turned on. I'm not sure about your case but if you do have it on.....turn it off. Good luck.

Hi guys,
I have a note 5 SM-N920C, tried to install stock firmware but i forgot to turn FRP off.
I have a soft bricked device now and I've tried flashing by Odin, using diferent versions but its still not coming up. I'll attach pictures of the error messages
Thanks for your help in advance
I had the same problem, but I solved it. Flash stock recovery (Odin), full wipe, after that, i flash the last stock rom for my Note 5 ( N920G) and smartphone back to live. I don't no if this resolve your problem, but for me, everything is ok now
About stock recovery, I extracted from the official rom (With Winrar), converted to .tar (tar-Tool_Odin3-v3.10.7) and flash by Odin.

Extract only the "recovery" file with Winrar or 7zip
Convert the "recovery.img" file from .img to .tar (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446269)

Thank you guys so much. I've flashed but I'm back at the google authentication screen. I used the Nougat update and it worked, stroke of luck actually.
Tried the marshmallow firmware after extracting and it didnt work, i then replaced it with the Nougat firmware and restarted my phone into download mode and it flashed, Didnt have to press start.
Anyway, I could bypass the FRP for my phone will be appreciated thanks
To bypass go to development option and switch fap off

I have done this over and over and have not been successful.. Would this work with an older or the original firmware? Are there firmwares for the Note 5 that already have the FRP off?
Is there an online service that actually works? If not I have to send my newly purchased soft brick into a Samsung Service Center and for 100 bucks get it fixed..
This is by far the most asinine thing I have ran into in a 25 year tech career

You need use the last firmware for your device, you can try flash last firmware with odin or flash some custom rom, i don't know if work with custom rom, but you can try.
Hello,
Im trying to recover my galaxy s10 for T-Mobile. I flash the correct firmware via Odin, its flashes successfully with no issues, and every time, it gets all the way to the T-Mobile boot screen, freezes, and then starts again at the Samsung screen. When I boot into recovery, I can see at the bottom:
E:[libfs_mgr]Unable to disable quotas on /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata because /system/bin/tune2fs is missing
I have tried factory resetting from recovery, but it continues to bootloop. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance
You used the patched version of Odin right? Reflash the firmware. Use one or 2 version firmwares down from the current if the current firmware doesn't work.

I downloaded the newest Odin from SamMobile. Will I be to flash an older firmware, if my bootloader is on the newest?
This error message is normal /system/bin/tune2fs is missing
A full odin Flash should cure it, you may even have to look into the re partition option where you specify the pit file. (extracted from the CSC file).
I've flashed with patched Odin, still same. I'm fairly new to Samsung flashing, how would I go about extracting that file?
