UPDATE: Up until yesterday, my phone was stuck on the Samsung logo. I used Odin to flash the original Carphone Warehouse Gingerbread Rom. The phone then became stuck in a loop of unresponsive processes and wouldn't boot up. I decided that this was due to the Google Apps on the phone being a newer version than the O/S (I have not factory reset). Kies would not connect to the device in this state, so i used Odin again to flash the stock UK Jellybean Vodafone Rom. My phone now boots, and most settings/apps appear to have been kept. However, some system apps, i.e. messaging, force close. I think this may be because the APN's etc are now on Voda settings. Unfortunately, 'settings' is also a process which force closes!
Basically, at the minute, I'm looking for a way to a) stop the force closes to manually change settings, or b) flash the UK unlocked JB Rom - I can't find this Rom anywhere.
Hi all. Hope somebody can help me.
I have an unlocked Galaxy Note, which has always run stock, up-to-date, Samsung firmware. Yesterday, I was attempting to use the satnav, and had the phone plugged in via car charger. The battery was low, and the satnav wouldn't connect to GPS. In the end, it became unresponsive, and I reset it. Now, the phone will only boot as far as the Samsung logo. Additionally, when it is charging, it doesn't show the bar climbing the battery - only the status (currently over half full).
I can get into recovery and download modes, but I'm really wanting to avoid a full reset/wipe, as I have some texts which have great sentimental value (yes, I know, I should have backed these up).
Other threads which are similar seem to point to Odin and an earlier stock ROM - I've downloaded the original ROM my phone would have had and Odin, but want to know 1) is this the best way to go and 2) what do I do next?
Thanks.
Flash the stock ROM again with ODIN.

Have retried Odin and received a pass.
Now, the phone is trying to run setup wizard, but is crashing/force closing a number of processes. Might this be because the stock Rom is too old?

Further update. I have reflashed again, this time with the JB Vodafone Rom. Previously I was on the unlocked UK Rom, but I can't find this anywhere. I'm now able to get into the phone, and the majority of things work, but some functionality is missing. I've tried to force an OTA update, but now the phone says its running the most up to date software. Any ideas how I can go back to the proper Rom for this phone?
This is the proper ROM mate, may not be the one you got with your phone but still the stock ROM. Or else you can search for the ROM you need on sammobile.com
Do hit thanks if this helps!

Well, as per update in O/P, I'm back in the majority of things, but certain system processes force close when I open. The phone registers on the network, and will make voice calls, but I can't access messaging (force closes) or APN's (force closes). So cannot text or connect to mobile internet. Have tried wiping cache, but I'm now running out of ideas.
Did you check sammobile.com? Or dr.ketan's thread in the original Android Development forum? Try flashing some other stock after a full wipe..
I used the only UK JB Rom in Dr Ketans thread. Have not checked sammobile yet - need to do this later.
I'm not wanting to do a full wipe until I can access and backup my texts - trying to install without wiping first.

Good news/bad news.
Firstly, the original problem of my phone stuck on the Samsung logo is fixed. My full sequence of events was 1) flash stock Gingerbread rom using Odin. This gave me a phone which would not boot due to Google processes force closing. 2) flash stock JB rom from Dr Ketans thread. This gave me a phone which booted, but could not access APNs/messaging, although all other settings/apps/files were still intact 3) flash stock JB rom from Sammobile (CPW). This gave the same problem. 4) Perform full factory reset and reflash JB CPW rom. Phone now has full functionality, but has lost all files, messages, apps etc.
Thanks for everyone's input - thread can be closed.
A full wipe mostly does it. And always backup the important stuff. If you're gonna root, Titanium backup is the best. And mate do click the 'Thanks' button if i helped!
Don't forget. do a backup of your current rom! if ever there might be a problem at least you can still jump back to it!!!

Hi everybody!
This is my first posting here, I hope it's in the right category. I've used the search function, found similar problems but no one facing the same issue. I wanted to upgrade to Android 2.3.3 (2.3.4) using Odin. I tried three different Firmware releases but none worked. This is what happens in Odin:

I tried with and without repartition. Sometimes the process stops at the SetupConnection line, sometimes at zImage when obviously the kernel should be installed. When in download mode, I see a blue progress bar starting to move across the phone screen, but soon later the whole display turns green/blue/white (it always had a different color) with no more text. Hours later Odin finally displays a FAIL message.
I tried firmware versions I9000XXJVQ and I9000XXJVR from samfirmware.com with 512 PIT file. I recognized some Kies-Thread running in the background on my Win7 machine, which I killed to prevent any problems.
In another forum I was told this issue might be related to some lagfixes installing ext4. When I read that it came to my mind that I indeed had installed the voodoo lagfix in February - I had completely forgotten about that. However, is there a chance to recover the phone? Putting it into DL mode is the only thing that works. Any help is appreciated!
Can you go in recovery mode to disable the lagfix? and when you use the 3 part file always check re-partition.
Had similar problems with Windows 7 x64, 2 in 3 flashes would fail.
Try another pc if possible with Xp.

Well, I tried, but I did not succeed - (Hold Vol up + Power on) but I'll try again. Is it absolutely necessary to remove the lagfix? As mentioned before someone told me that ext4 might be causing those problems. However, I though the sd was repartitioned (when checkbox is ticked) and the firmware is a kind of disk image which is installed and thus overwrites the existing file system?

it's vol up + home button + power on, but don't release the button untill your are in the menu.
A stock firmware is made for RFS partition not ext4, i think it's that the problem, but i may be wrong.

Thank you all so far! Well, it almost worked - at least kind of. I tried it a couple of times, rebooted the PC, rebooted the phone, reinstalled drivers, used another USB port. After a couple of retries it stopped at "factoryfs.rfs" - which obviously contains the file system. This makes me guess that it does not matter which FS currently is installed as it gets overwritten by this factoryfs-thing. Please correct me if I am wrong!
Still, any help on this topic is gladly appreciated!
when you flash pda in odin the file system is over-written and reverts to rfs.
Try without re-partition ticked. Also after several attempts your battery may have no juice left in it: pull the battery, let it sit a couplce of minutes and then plug it in and see if it will re-charge -- may not, you might be stuck at download and odin.
Flash an older 2.2 firmware first: pda. phone and csc, don't bother with the pit file and don't bother with re-partition -- this is just to get you back and working, you can then charge the battery and update to jvr after.
Also check the thread on unbricking the phone -- most issues with flashing are recoverable, its just persistence.

Well, I tried to flash with and without repartition/pit-file. The download process hangs at different stages. I doubt it has to do with the battery, as the phone has been attached to the PC for almost three days now, I guess the battery is charged then...?

To which of the thousands of unbricking threads do you refer? I read something about a tool which puts the phone into recovery mode, from where I can format the sd. However, I can't get to recovery mode by pressing vol up, home + power, i just can enter download mode. I have tried various firmwares, neither did work...
Thanks for your help so far, maybe you can give me another hint on the thread you're talking about?
Try rebooting the phone,rebooting the pc,use a different usb cable(this part made it work for me), and try again. Hope it helps man cause i've been down that road and it sucked bricked my sgs 2 times but thankfully revived it because heimdall one click un-brick oh and 1 more thing if you use 3 files check re partition

Mate, try a full 3 file flash and a pc with Win XP 32-bit and ODIN 1.83
Worked for me
Good luck flashing !!
Thank you all guys, it worked - even though it was none of the tips provided here. I have no clue what the problem was, I moved to another PC, it took me three tries to flash the phone.
- The second PC was Win7 64bit as well.
- I used the original cable (tried with another one as well, no difference)
- I used just the drivers without any Kies installation.
- I used a SINGLE FILE FLASH with Android 2.2.1 first (which I was then unable to boot as it stuck with the S symbol during boot)
- Flashed 2.3.4 afterwards - worked.
My phone has never ever been running so smoothly before, even with lag fixes!
Unfortunately, my external SD makes troubles, but let's see how to fix that.
My note to all of you guys facing similar problems:
Some say, use PIT and repartition, some say, don't
Just don't care - for me it finally worked without (single file flash). Try all possibilities.
Some say, install Kies, just because of the drivers, some say, install the drivers without Kies
Just don't care - try either option, it might work - for me the drivers without Kies finally worked but I have no clue if that had any impact.
Some say, use another USB cable, some say use the original one
Just don't care - try different cables if possible, in my case there was no difference.
Some say, use the USB port closest to your MB, others say, try various USB ports
Just don't care - try different ports, the behavior cannot be reproduced, each try the flashing process got stuck at another stage - independent of the USB port used.
Some say, try another computer with another OS
Good choice - that made it working in my case. Even though the other machine was nearly the same with exactly the same OS installed. Also, I have successfully flashed my phone with the first one before.
Thanks guys, you're the best! And give Android 2.3.4 a try, it's FAST and SMOOTH!
Recently I used ODIN 3.0.7 to try and root my Samsung Galaxy S3 (Telia) 4G with a so-called "CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4".
It is the 16 GB, 2 GB RAM 4G/LTE version, and it was running at Android 4.1.2 when I tried to do the root.
The phone booted up fine and ODIN claimed it was a success, I immediately noticed that the phone had stopped recognizing my SIM card, and the Root Checker also stated that something was wrong and it wasn't rooted. so I download a stock ROM and try to install that, however when I choose the SD card to try and install it, it says no files are found.I had made it to the CWM Recovery tool on the phone, and I could start the phone that way ("Reboot Phone Now", but it still didn't recognize my stuff, so I tried following the stock ROM instructions I was given, and I wiped all data, cache and stuff after backing it up on my PC in the CWM recovery tool.
Now, at this point, the phone is stuck at "Downloading - Do not turn off target!". When I try turning it off, the screen goes black for 2 seconds, and then the screen appears again. If I am quick, I can get into the "ODIN" mode, where I can once again try and root it. It fails again, but now I get to the CWM Recovery Tool again, but no files are found at all, and if I reboot the phone, it just goes back to the Downloading screen (I left it on overnight and it stayed on that screen, by the way. I doubt it is ACTUALLY downloading anything).
I do not know the Kernel or ROM version. The phone was bought in the start of February, though, so I could imagine it's rather new.
What do I do now? I just wish to get my phone back to normal Android, normal everything even if it means a factory reset.
You need to goto the NV backup sticky thread in the dev section that I put together, look near the bottom.
Download the param binary and flash with odin to revive your device.

Hello, I followed the guide and flashed the phone with the param with ODIN, however, the phone is still stuck on its "Downloading - Do Not Turn Off Target!" screen (though it is not showing the ODIN mode at the corner anymore.

You probably corrupted your efs partition by flashing a CF Root not intended for your phone. The CF Root is for SGS3 not I9305 LTE.

You already have root with this rom
Hello again, sorry for sort of necroing.
So I got it running again, there is one nasty problem, though - The phone won't recognize my SIM card, meaning that it simply doesn't register that there is one.
I'd guess the phone warranty is void at this point, so what do I do? Is there any DIY fix?

hard bricked galaxy sIII I9305
guys i got a much worse situation, my device is a galaxy I9305, and i turned my phone off during the flash of a firmware where it was saying "FAIL" for a long time. I'm desperate at the moment and i'm not finding out any way how to debrick it, any help would be greately appreciated! My device is stuck on "Downloading... Do not turn off target!!" it's only this text in the center, with nothing more
Hello guys,
i'm new in the forum and this is my first entry.
I got quite a complicated situation with my phone... i try to describe this as good as possible.
My brother gave his old phone, a GT-I9070P with GB (v2.3.6) on it and i wanted to upgrade it to a newer firmware. Unfortunatly I haven't had an Android phone in a long time (2 years or so).
Nevertheless i wanted to upgrade it to 4.1.2 stock and use NFC (for programming a little bit).
I asked the father of a friend of mine to upgrade it because he has much more expirience with flashing and all that stuff ..
He said that this is no problem and after a few days he gave it back to me and told me that there were some difficulties but he did it.
Now i got my phone with JB 4.1.2 but when i tried it out, it didn't recognize the SIM card.
I gave it back to him and said, that the SIM wasn't working.
We found out that he flashed a I9070 stock and that the IMEI was "deleted" but he knows a guy how can fix this.
I read in a few forums about this problems and found out that this has got something to do with the modem (baseband / IMEI).
When i got my phone back, the SIM was recognized again.
But now i got a GT-I9070P with I9070 stock firmware (-> NFC not working)
Today i tried to flash two I9070P stock roms with Odin 3.09 but it didn't work out.
(I can post the LOG from Odin if you want)
When i flashed the I9070 stock again, it worked perfectly.
Sorry for the long post but now my actual question:
Is it possible to get a full functional I9070P with working NFC back on the phone?
(To be honest: i don't have any backups or /lib/tee - folders)
Thank you very much for helping me out!
cheers,
MonkeySon

"But now i got a GT-I9070P with I9070 stock firmware" - your phone would be hardbricked if you flashed I9070 firmware on I9070P, so I suppose that is not the case. Did you try to do factory reset after flashing stock firmware for I9070. P.S. We do not have any custom ROM with NFC support as I know.

Thank you for the quick response.
Hm... but this is exactly whats the case right now...
The back of the phone says "I9070P" and i have the backcover with the NFC "antenna" but the the device information says "Model: GT-I9070... Basebandversion: I9070XXLQG"
Okay, i will try that
But even if this works, wouldn't there the problem with the SIM-recognition again?
I know, that's the reason why i wanted to flash the newest stock rom.
I'd try to flash 9070P lib/tee/folder (use temporary recovery or flash any cocore kernel beforehand) - to be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191628 (use version for stock ROMs)

If i get it right you suggest:
- flash CoCore incl. recovery (for I9070)
- install the I9070P tee folder zip on my 9070 stock
What should theoretically happen then - would i be able to use NFC or flash the 9070P stock rom then?

Try to flash cocore for I9070P as your phone is with NFC,then flash that tee folder zip and see if its working.If it is,download stock rom for P vesion from sammobile.com .I dont remember if flashing stock from there will increase count,but you can reset it later.
@shut_down
Now i did a factory reset after flashing the 9070 stock but i got the same error as before while flashing 9070P stock
@Tarola
Well this could possibly be but i don't think that, i trust them
@Force
Okey thanks, i will try that and report later
BTW: flashing stock also increases counter.
well, lets see..
i installed CoCore-EP-8.6-CWM - everything ok
installed 9070PJBlibteefolder.zip via recovery - no problem
restart the phone - restart to download mode and try to flash P rom.
Exact same error as before, in addition to that, the phone is now unable to read my SIM again

yeah... but does anyone know why it stuck?
i don't think it would be the rom.. because this was the case with every 9070P rom i tried so far.
this whole thing is a little mystrey to me to be honest
EDIT:
I got my IMEI and SIM functionality back by flashing the 9070 stock again.
Just in case someone wants to know
I think i'm gonna ask the guy who did this for me how he achieved it, that the phone thinks its another model

Only thing that I can tell you now is that you are lucky that your phone was not hardbricked.
Hi there,
i'm having a weired problem with my Samsung Galaxy S III LTE (GT-I9305 - DBT), after
updating from official 4.3 (DBT - PDA:MKC / Phone: MK1 / CSC: MJ4) to a yesterday via OTA provided update to Kitkat 4.4.4
(recovery says KTU84P.I9305XXUFNI3)
The device has only seen official firmware and has never been rooted or tried to be manually manipulated.
I did these steps.
1.) OTA update was available, downloaded via WLAN on the device (took a while), then the update was initiated
on the device directly (no kies). Update went ok so far, after the first reboot the "app optimisation process" began
, at this point there were some pop ups saying some of the google "play" apps were stopped (Play movies, play books, play kiosk.
also a so called "setup assistent").
The device was "normally" usable at this point, but the above mentioned apps have been left unusable, also some "apps stopped"
pop ups show up after every reboot on the device.
2.) So i decided to boot up in recovery mode to do an "wipe cache partition" - but this didn't help. The error messages concerning
some of the system apps were still there.
3.) Although i knew, that i had to some re-setup after it, i thought "ok, let's give a factory reset a chance" (a wipe dalvik cache was
no option, because of the original bootloader and an unrooted device). After the factory reset, the device came up with the samsung
setup assistant, which seems ok to me, BUT at this point the device gets stucked in the first setups steps because there were so many
"apps stopped" messages concerning critical system apps (in my opinion). Here a just a few: "samsung account", "google play services",
"youtube", "google play music", "setup-assistant". The devices is now stucked at the point to accept the eula, no chance to get any step
further.
After this and the informations i found online, i would call this device a "soft brick"?
My idea was to reinstall the original 4.3 firmware to reanimate the device via odin (tried 3.09 and 1.85). I got the official one file package
from the previously android version (I9305XXUEMKC_I9305DBTEMJ4_I9305XXUEMK1_HOME.tar). But there is no way to flash this via
odin. The process always aborts with an write failed message. Only selected options are "Auto Reboot" and "F Reset Time", the image
ist selected via the AP-Button, "ID-COM" went blue after connecting device).

Could it be, that flashing the downgrade to official 4.3 is impossible because of a newer installed bootloader on OTA update process?
On the device there ist follwing message at download mode after failing the flash process:

Has anyone an idea how to bring this device back to life? Unfortunaly there are no update packages for 4.4.4 DBT at this moment, to give it a try with the latest
android version. Firmware restore and initialisation via kies is also not availabe because it says the device is not supported.
Hi After ota update no xamera Icon on the lockscreen can you help me?
Sent from my GT-I9305 using XDA Free mobile app
I've got a problem after updating to kit kat 4.4.4. Fact is that before updating I used "Screen Mirroring" with my LG SmartTV. That feature was always working perfect with 4.3. But now it's impossible to connect to my TV. TV and phone say "connecting" but after few seconds TV shows a popup saying "Device disconnected" and then my phone brings a "Error connecting Screen Mirroring". And my question is "WHYYYY?!?!" It's assumed that an update gives a more useful phone and instead of that I got the opposite. Incredible... can anyone help me, please? I would be very very thankful!
EDIT: Now, when I try to connect both devices, my phone brings a popup saying "Can not connect because of a hardware problem". WTF?
reflash the ROM with the Android 4.4.4 image now avaible on SamMobile
I have had the same problem

The firmware package you are trying to flash through ODIN is 4.3. Once updated to 4.4.4 you can not downgrade to 4.3. Grab 4.4.4 from here : http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=35546 and flash it thorugh Odin just like the same way
In the meantime just got my device back repaired from Samsung customer care center. Device is working again without failures under 4.4.4.
The mainboard was replaced, i thought this was the best way for me, as the device was still in warranty period. I can't estimate if it really was
a hardware problem or not - simply glad to have a working device back.
Although your remarks concerning impossible "downgrade" to 4.3 after upgrading to 4.4.4 once seem to be plausible for me causing the flashing
failures with odin.
As LightningJackMcQeen mentioned, the way to flash 4.4.4 via odin was the solution for his problems.

Give it a factory reset and try again.
i'm having exactly the same problems, but the difference is that my warranty is void, sending it back to samsung is therefore no option, i also tried flashing the XXUEFNI3 file but didn't work either, any ideas?
this problem is due to the fact that if you go up you can't go down.
for example: if you got the 4.3 update from 4.2.2(or 4.1.2) you couldn't go back(knox issues). if you have flashed at a point in time 4.4 on your phone you can't flash 4.3...you can only go up. so solve the problem by flashing 4.4.4.
more and more countries release 4.4.4 - check it here: http://live.samsung-updates.com/index.php?device=GT-I9305
i'm not from germany(i'm from other country in europe) but i got their firmware and words like a charm. it's incredible smooth(99.99% like a custom ROM) an no bugs what so ever.
Hi folks,
I friend of mine have this phone that is stuck in Odin mode. The problem is that none of the "press and hold keys" commands work and the phone just reboots into Odin every time. She has "tons" of Pictures of her first born Child on the device, without any cloud backup! :crying:
Any suggestions what to try next?
What i have done so far:
Trying all the "press and hold keys"
Letting the battery drain out and the hook up the Power to it... When connecting Power the screen turns White for 15-20 minutes and then if i reboot it, it goes back to Odin/download mode...
Is it possible that opening the phone and removing the battery could work?

I am no expert, just going to suggest what I would try, hopefully someone may know what to do exactly.
You could try downloading stock filmware from Sammobile or updato (making sure to at least flash the same filmware build or higher, or Odin won't flash it) if you use the "home csc" csc file, it should not wipe the data on the phone, and what I hope may fix the phone not booting.
First of all you should have mentioned the model no. Second, you can try flashing the stock firmware from sammobile. Now, the tricky part is, if prior to this soft brick the phone was on a custom rom or had been rooted, then flashing the firmware alone won't bring the device back to life, a factory reset will be needed after flashing stock firmware, which doesnt seems like a favorable option considering that the data on device is important. There can be other ways to fix this without losing the data but for that illl need to know the device details.
Oh and btw, opening the device and messing with the battery won't help at all. Don't do that.

Its an Galaxy Note 8 (SM-N950F)
The only thing i can see in the display is
https:// imgshare.io/image/odin-2.U7KCu
We dont know what firmware was beeing used Before this, it´s not custom or rooted tho. I assume its the latest official tho
I grabbed the latest from Sammobile, N950FXXU7DSJ1_N950FCKH7DSJ1_HTS
I could try the above suggestions but what about trying to flash the BL? Could it not be the BL that is cuppupt somehow?
I did try and flash the BL now but Odin software says:

Driver related? i have the Samsung USB drivers installed….
https://zfirmware.com/download-samsung-galaxy-note-8-pit-file/
Seems like it's a kernel problem, or maybe the phone IMEI reported stolen?
Have you tried installing custom binaries? TWRP maybe?
Or messing with OEM unlock found in Developer Options?
Most of the for solving such problem, you have to flash the exact same firmware found on phone before the problem.
Try rooting using odin and then twrp and thenflashing a custom firmware..... That could help..... Just a thought.... Wipe everything except internal storage
https://mega.nz/#!Lk8RiKQR!FiH50HLQp1aijVkRARSPtBN6M6wFphShHsm7i6u23lw
Try flashing this via odin through AP.
