I wanna know if you can help me, ...
I was on sprint gtab stock rom DJ30 which updated to EA24 and EB28. Data service worked very well. Then I flashed voodoo CWM in order to install Honeycomb rom. Then install the rom via CWM. The installation was indeed finished, but it stucked in samsung logo boot. I turned off device and boot in cwm mode. Sure, it was HC rom's CWM. But it couldnt mount system, Seems the convertion to ext4 didnt work. Worse thing it couldnt mount sdcard either. So I couldnt reinstall the rom. I also couldnt reboot, so i had to long press the power button.
Stop trying installing HC rom on my device, i decided to revert back to stock rom (DJ30>EA24). But it was weird, i cant revert to stock rom with modem.bin inside the package. It always stuck in modem.bin when flashed with odin. But, when i use the package with no modem, it can flashed succesfully. I had flashed that stock rom (with modem.bin) million times without fail, but now always fail.
Yeah, my gtab is running but without modem.bin so no signal and i cant use data services. Like wifi only tab.
Many ways i've tried:
- I've tried flashed DJ30 with no modem first. Okay, it is successful. But when flash with EA24 (with modem) it stuck on modem.bin.
- I've tried flashed DJ30 with modem.bin. And it also stucked on modem.bin. Trying flashed EA24 without modem.bin, it is succesful.
- Try using heimdall. Progress 100% but it wont reboot. But when i retry n uncheck modem. Flashing work flawlesly.
- Try using odin modem only flash. Progress bar is full but it wont reboot.
- Try flashing via CWM, but still no luck.
Weird, huh. Seems my gtab cannot use modem.bin anymore.
Any clue? Thanks before ...
I'd appreciate if you can help me flashing modem.bin to my device. Or it end up with wifi only tab.
EDIT: even OTA update, stuck on "verifying modem ... updating modem ..."
I would like to bump this as I am having the same issues also. I am flashing my Sprint Galaxy Tab to EA24, and it is held up at modem.bin.
I posted a question on this, and am hoping that someone helps us.
Thanks in advance,
Claud
try re-partition and flash pit by using odin,i suffered the same issue with my vzw tab
depending on which file you're using to restore. You need to use the .tar.md5 file from the EA24 flasher and rename it to just .tar, then flash with Odin. I've flashed this several times and it gets past modem.bin just fine. If you are using the 2 files 1 with modem (Epic 4g modem) and 1 without modem you're not using the right files. I ran into the same issue with the with/without modem files. Here's a link to the EA24 flasher and the .tar.md5 file you need to go back to stock.

Bumping this to avoid making a new thread.
I've done many reverts back to stock from different ROMs, but this past time coming from BTL or HC (Sprint Tab btw) I'm also getting hung up on modem.bin. Never had a problem here before, so not sure what's going on.
I didn't use a pit and only had reboot checked and it worked fine.
I've never included pit. I've just always put SPH-P100.EA24.SECURE.REV07-FULL_CL871413.tar in the PDA slot and let it go through. And tried checking re-partition, but it does not go through that way.

Pretty sure if you try to re-partition, you have to have the correct pit file for it to know the right places to recreate the partition table. If you're just flashing back to stock, there's no need for the pit file.

That's what I thought and never had a need for it. Guess I do now. Think it would even work?

I've never had to repartition a device, but i've read about it working for people to bring them back from boot looping etc. If somehow the partition table gets corrupted etc. If you're already soft bricked, there's no harm in trying.
Having the same issue, trying to go from Rooted GB to BTL then back to GB or EA24
Hi,
I am having the same issues, does anyone have the .PIT file available by any chance, all of the packcages that I have downloaded for the sprint tab seem to not have any pit included...

You need to look at one of the stock VZW threads and find the files you need there, as the sprint modem will make things worse for you. Not sure if the pit files are the same or not between the sprint and VZW tabs..

I have the correct files for the tab for Verizon. I have the original files Following: Sbl.bin boot.bin cache.rfs dbdata.rfs efs.rfs factoryfs.rfs ldb.db modem.bin param.lfs param.rfs pit.pit zImage
But my problem is how to record using that pit. What other files should I use a recording that will restore the partition table?
I fear that a problem occurs with even higher tab.
I am having this issue as well, and I'm also coming from HC and on Sprint. I have no trouble flashing any kernel/rom of my choosing EXCEPT for the modem.
At this point, I'm just trying to reflash it back to stock. I've got the Sprint EA24 files, including the pit (tried with and without) but it refuses to flash the modem. If I omit the modem, it flashes perfectly fine and I'm left with a bone stock tab with no modem.
Is there anyone here who went to HC and then managed to go back? As stated by others, I've gone back to stock before without issue. The HC build seems to be what caused this problem
I ran spacemoose's HC port for a day or 2 and then went back to stock until the official GB came out. I've had no issues flashing the whole EA24, or any other updates.. with and without the modem..
Hmmmm. Maybe different hardware revisions? You have any suggestions? I'm completely out of ideas and it's of little use to me without 3G.
I just did a flash back to complete stock (including modem) 2 days ago, and it didn't hesitate once while flashing everything with Heimdall. Only thing I can say is keep trying.
At this point, I've attempted to flash it no less than a dozen times and still can't get the modem to flash. I'm completely baffled as to why it won't accept it.
I have the att variant of the galazy s6 (SM-G920A) and after doing the ping pong root I tried installed TWRP from the app in the play store and it tripped knox and gave the unauthorized software screen. I downloaded the stock firmware from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s6/general/odin-tar-files-sm-g920a-t3103835
to try and unbrick the phone. I've used Odin before but never with a download that has multiple tar.md5 files so I might be doing it wrong, but I tried putting just the ap file in the ap slot in odin v3.10.6 and that failed. I also tried putting all the tar.md5 files in their corresponding slots (bl, ap, etc) and it still failed. With the type of file in the link I posted, what should I be doing or what am I doing wrong. I really appreciate any help and want to get my phone working asap. Thanks.
Hello Can Anyone give me some advice in flashing back to factory stock NC2 using the N900AUCUCNC2_Full_Odin_Tar file AND (flashing in Odin's PDA slot(AP in Odin v3.09+) ? The device is a ATT Note 3 running android:4.4.4, (version :N900AUCUDNL1) kernal:3.4.03032228. I dont know everything and just need a little help. I appreciate your time.
I normally put the tar file in the pda slot, I check everything except f.reset time, flash firmware, remove USB cable from the phone, remove battery, replace battery, boot into recovery, perform a factory wipe, and reboot.
I upgraded my Samsung S5 g900a from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 following the steps in the post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/general/galaxy-s5-android-version-6-0-1-t3419016
I put in development mode and turned on debugging. Prior to starting I checked to see if there were any updates via the phone and there were none.
I used Odin as recommended in the post and only flashed the AP file. Odin showed that flash was successful and on reboot of the phone get to the At&t logo and stop. I put it in recovery mode and wiped the data and cache and n reboot it would stop at the same place. I tried again and flashed the AP, cs and CSC and repeated the recovery wipe with the same results.
I then tried the steps to fix 5.1.1 outlined here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785185
I used Odin and flashed AP, CS, CSC, BL. I still ended up with it stopping at the ATT logo. I went into recovery mode to wipe data and cache and rebooted and the results were the same.
Are there any ideas what to try next? I can still boot into Download mode and recovery Mode. Odin can still connect. Any help would be appreciated
Not sure what you flashed, as there are many links in that post; but if you tried upgrading to 6.0.1, then you need to flash all 4 files (BL, AP, CP, and CSC) from the PH4 download only.
Thanks, Flashing all four file worked. Page 1 of the post indicated to just flash the AP.
Hello!!! I have Samsung Tab S2 SM-t813, I was running un-official LOS 17.1 but the battery life was bad and bluetooth headphones not working so I decided to go back to Stock.
Used Odin3 3.14 to flash latest FW from Sammobile, AU variant T813XXS2BTK3_T813XSA2BTK1_XSA
I loaded it up with AP option only (it's just one file, not BL, AP, CP and CSC).
Odin seems to flash it just fine and then I get a bluescreen, says it's installing an update, then says it's erasing, then it just sits on the Samsung Logo slowly fading in and out from dull to bright.
I know this is meant to take a long time the first boot but I've been waiting for an hour now.
Any suggestions?
@jonathonsunshine one chance I see is flashing multiple! file stock ROM.
You can get it using samfirm_reborn on a windows PC.
Insert your device type and region plus checking "binary nature" and "decrypt".
That will download a zip file you have to unpack and get the AP, BL aso.
Battery should be fully loaded before flashing.
Good luck.
That's what it looks like for my T820.
In the end, I never got the stock rom going, I flashed twrp-3.5.2_9-0-gts210vewifi.img.tar with Odin 3.14, then followed this guide and installed the Lite Version of Stock Rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-7-0-nougat-stock-lite-v8-t713-t813.3746583/

So even multiple part stock ROM didn't work?
That's weird.
Trying this for a Galaxy Tab S2 (SM-T713) to no avail. I am able to grab the firmware but, unless I am doing something wrong, Odin doesn't do anything after loading the 3 extracted files and clicking start. Oh well.
EDIT:
I may be using an incorrect cable. Will try again later.
EDIT 2:
Back to stock!
