Hello,
Have you tried this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...sy-steps-stock-odin-n910tuvu1anih-cf-t2903733
Im no expert but it may help you out.

You have to do a battery pull. Then boot into the stock recovery and factory reset after flashing back to stock via Odin.

[Q] Pc Odin Stuck on Factoryfs.img! Please Help!

Guys,
I need your urgent assistance .. I think I have bricked my phone and need assistance.. Basically I was running the Official ICS ROM which I got from XDA website it was the LQ2 kernel for the Galaxy Note.
Last night I custom flashed the Criskelo ICS v7 ROM but wasn't too happy and wanted to go back to stock ICS .. So I went into PC Odin and flashed the stock ICS Firmware.. upon booting I went into CWM (Volume up + home+power) did a factoy reset and cache, dalvik cache wipe.. Then reboot system.. The phone was stuck on the Samsung Galaxy Note screen .. So I tried to Flash the Stock ICS LQ2 rom again via PC Odin and now it just hangs almost at 90% at factoryfs.img?
Am I completely messed up or is there a way to resolve this please can you guys assist me in what I must do.. I don't know if this is a soft or super brick..
Many Thanks..
Well lets look at some things,
- Can you boot into ODIN mode if you pull the battery?
- Do you have JIG to force ODIN mode?
- Maybe try flashing a stock GB rom to clean everything off if you can, then flash a a CF-root kernel, THEN try to go to ICS.

You might have bad IO blocks in your eMMC to which data cannot be written. That might be the reason why ODIN is failing at 90%. You'll either have to go through a complicated way and modify your PIT partition or get your Note replaced. Replacing would be a better idea

[Q] Stuck in bootloop after reverting to Gingerbread from CM 10

Hello everyone.
I have a problem which I hope you'll be willing and able to help with.
I wanted to try out CyanogenMod 10 on my Galaxy S I9000. I was on 2.3.3 so I used Odin to update to 2.3.6 (rooted). Then I installed superuser and mod manager, after which I installed Clockwork. I then used Clockwork to install CM 10. It worked flawlessly and this was my first time flashing ever.
However, I didn;t like CM 10 and decided to revert back to Gingerbread. I read it was as easy as simply using Odin to flash 2.3.6 again. I tried that but got stuck into a bootloop displaying the S sign over and over and over again. I tried downloading the PIT file which made Odin check Repartition by default and flashing like that but it didn't help, I'm still stuck in bootloop. I can access download mode without a problem but I'm stuck in bootloop forever.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Update: I found a thread detailing how to get back to Froyo so I tried it. I used a PIT file, PDA file, PHONE file and CSC file all separately and it worked. Now I'll just have to update back to 2.3.6 No idea why I was only able to revert back to Froyo and not Gingerbread, but it worked, thread can be closed.
Hey,
Bit of a late answer, but so you can refer to it if you ever go back to custom roms.
When you come back to stock from CM10, or any custom rom for that matter, you need to flash in a file named dbsdata.rfs.tar. Fixes the bootloops (custom roms and stock have different data partitions so incompatibilities in data partition cause bootloops like yours)

[Q] Stuck at splash screen. Odin unable to reflash. Recovery not working.

Hi
My stock JB official unrooted rom suddenly went to a bootloop. I looked up online for solutions and flashed an official JB ROM for my phone and Odin failed to flash it. I tried Philz recovery but Odin failed to flash it. I got a yellow triangle which I was able to removie through Odin. Currently my phone is stuck on the splash screen. Recovery doesn't work. Odin fails when I try to reflash with a md5.tar file. Please experts help me with my problem. would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] [HELP] Need help unbricking SM-G900V

In the process of rooting my Galaxy S5 I ended up soft-bricking my phone so that it's now in a bootloop. At this point I just want to restore the phone to factory default but I'm having issues doing so.
The issue came when I tried to flash a ROM onto my device using Odin3 which was successful but then, on restart, I got this bootloop. I've now tried a few different ways to fix.
I've:
Cleared cache partition and user data
Tried to use Odin v3.10 to flash stock for different builds (G900VVRU1BOD5, G900VVZW1BOC4,G900VVZW1BOA8) (I believe the phone was on G900VVRU1BOD5 before the bootloop)
I was also stupid and didn't do a backup beforehand.
This thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53454972) seems to suggest that I need to flash the CP and CSC along with the AP but I haven't been able to locate these files.
Any help would be appreciated!
Errors
I guess I forgot to mention that when I attempt to flash the stock firmware I get a FAIL! (Auth) error from Odin almost immediately no matter which ROM I try.
I had this problem. After days of fighting it I went into the stock recovery and did a factory data reset and that fixed it.

are you trying to flash a ATT stock rom to your Verizon Phone??
Thanks for the replies. I have stock BL and I've tried the reset there and it hasn't helped.
I have a Verizon S5 and am using Verizon stock firmware. Looks like I accidentally posted this in the ATT S5 general section. Sorry...
