Btw ive tried different odin versions, different usb cables and different computers.

Is it definitely the AT&T version of the i537, or could it be the Mexican or Uruguayan version? Make sure you don't have Kies installed. What version was the phone on before it was bricked?

Try a different cable. The one from one of my external hard drives works the best out of all of my 4-5 cables. I have had PIT errors with the other cables before. In fact, I can only flash/transfer data on one of my cables.

As of now ive tried LOTS of different cables and I'll keep trying

USB Port in back of desktop PC?
I had a problem using ODIN on a laptop. It would fail to flash and cause a boot loop. I looked around and some others suggested using a desktop PC and the USB port in the back. I tried it and it worked. Maybe it will work for you too....

then my phone can't boot anymore, it jus stuck at the samsung n7000 screen,
i tried to download stock rom and flash again, but it failed like above,
and when i go try to flash the kernel, it success to go to the recovery mode,
but it showing error like
E:Error in /cache/recovery/sec_csc.zip (status 7)
And i maybe forgot to enable usb debugging before i root, is this the cause? how i enable it now?
what can i do now? I tried to change port, change pc, uninstall kies, reinstall driver, close antivirus, and all doesn't work, please help...
To be sure, take out all unnecessary USB devices and use a USB port that's directly attached to your motherboard. Without your phone attached load Odin and load all files. Put the phone in Download mode and hook it up to your pc. When Odin recognizes it then try and flash again.
Make sure there's not a trace of Kies on the pc, just have the drivers installed.
USB debugging should not have to be enabled. There's no way of enabling it without booting up the phone and setting it in the options anyway.

I have some imp data on my internal memory(Phone storage). I have to save that data. Please please please help me out. Is there any way to recover phone storage data???

First: this thread is marked as solved since april. Chances are very low for a reaction (but at least I did)
Second: Make a new one in Q&A
Third: What do you mean with "Took the TB"? Especially when you flash a new Stock Rom after
Fourth: Did you put the tar-file under "Phone"? Should be "PDA".
Fifth: Read a lot in the stickies here - good start for handling Odin is Dr. Ketan's thread
Sixth: your current situation might result from not reading enough. I hope you didn't brick your device and can restore a running Rom with the instructions from the stickies. Good Luck
how exactly did you reach this situation?
Did you resolve this ?

@vinay28761
I have your exact problem. Phone came to me with problem of hanging on Samsung N7000 Logo.
After flash everything, it shows error, exactly like yours.
Were you able to fix it? How ?

Bootloop, no Recovery possible S3 Mini GT-I8190N NFC

Hi together, before i try to use a "last exit" by buying me an "Unbrick - JTAG", i thought if one could may help me, it will be found here or nowhere.
I started with a new S3 Mini (Telekom Branding Android 4.1.2 Germany). Using the SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 MINI TOOLKIT Pro, (mskip) i rooted it and flashed also the CMW Recovery. Within the CMW Recovery i made a Backup before i flashed a CUSTOM-ROM ( "enox reVenge one" ROM ).
Flashing went trough without Errors, afterwards i did a "wipe factory reset", a "wipe cache" and a "wipe dalvik cache". Then after a reboot the "disaster" was there with a permanent bootloop (Samsung starting Screen with model, etc.) and i couldn´t get into Recovery mode anymore. As i found out, the Download mode still worked and i could still flash using ODIN. So i studied some articles here and i followed procedures to re install a common Stock-Rom together with a PIT file for the I8190N (! found also her specific for the "N" option). The flashes went trough without errors, but unfortunately without positive effects to come over the bootloop. I read some articles about ADB, i downloaded the Android SDK, and tried to use some shell commands to get into recovery mode with no success, because i got allways the message "device not found". Within the SDK package also the USB Drivers were installed and when i connected the S3 via USB, Drivers were installed under "WXP" without any errors (I use WXP instead of W7 or W8 which i have also available). At a certain time i recognised that the SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 MINI TOOLKIT Pro, give me an ADB environment just on a selectable menuelevel, which can be used more comfortable as the native ADB environment. I recognised that i could use there just a function like "reboot in recovery mode".
The problem just ist, that of coarse also there the "device not found" problem is just the same (same Environment on Laptop). I just have any idee anymore what to do, and either i can solve the problem finaly here with your support (maybe something else could be tried out using ODIN flashing), or i take the last exit "and buy me the mentioned Unbrick - JTAG.
Instead of this i would more like to buy you a beer or to donate for a beer for someone of you.
We will see what happens, anyway my best wishes to you.
reflash the firmware (make sure that it is the right firmware for your variant) with pit file.
if you stuck in bootloop, flash param file with odin http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1937012&d=1367738404 (it works also for N)
Unfortunately no success
Did it as recommended with no success, files used within flashing:
First ODIN Flash,

i8190N_goldenxx.pit
Second ODIN Flash,

if you can not boot into recovery to wipe, flash this .tar.md5 as pda (the same for I8190 and I8190N) http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1540051&d=1354753346
No success, Bootloop remains
Many thanks, but no success. I have the impression it might have to do with the bootloader itself. K.r. Heinz :crying:

Did you try the 3 button combo for recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2157105?
Start in recovery and do a factory reset after you flash a stock rom in Odin.
Still no success
Hi, i tried the I8190.tar.md5, unfortunately without success, because i´m not sure about the effect and the battery load, i decided not to try as well the I8190 серв. укр.rar package (might be i don´t have enough battery load and within the permanent bootloop, loading doesn´t seem to work). I think i will stop at that stage with this huge amount of attemps and buy me a jtag unbrick as mentioned when i started this thread. In case somebody would know how charge the battery in this stage, i would give the I8190 серв. укр.rar a final try out.

Did you try the 3 button combo for recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2157105?
Start in recovery and do a factory reset after you flash a stock rom in Odin.

Doesn't the phone charge when it's off? Try to unplug the battery, plug it back in and connect the charger.
Same here! I have TWRP recovery and it shows TeamWin splash screen for 1 second and shuts off!

go to download mode and flash param.tar (search in forum).
if this isn´t successful, download This ROM (LaFleur) and follow This Instructions.
After that you can flash every ROM you like
I flashed a wrong script one time - nothing worked. So i did it like i described and everything worked

Hi together, before i try to use a "last exit" by buying me an "Unbrick - JTAG", i thought if one could may help me, it will be found here or nowhere.
I started with a new S3 Mini (Telekom Branding Android 4.1.2 Germany). Using the SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 MINI TOOLKIT Pro, (mskip) i rooted it and flashed also the CMW Recovery. Within the CMW Recovery i made a Backup before i flashed a CUSTOM-ROM ( "enox reVenge one" ROM ).
Flashing went trough without Errors, afterwards i did a "wipe factory reset", a "wipe cache" and a "wipe dalvik cache". Then after a reboot the "disaster" was there with a permanent bootloop (Samsung starting Screen with model, etc.) and i couldn´t get into Recovery mode anymore. As i found out, the Download mode still worked and i could still flash using ODIN. So i studied some articles here and i followed procedures to re install a common Stock-Rom together with a PIT file for the I8190N (! found also her specific for the "N" option). The flashes went trough without errors, but unfortunately without positive effects to come over the bootloop. I read some articles about ADB, i downloaded the Android SDK, and tried to use some shell commands to get into recovery mode with no success, because i got allways the message "device not found". Within the SDK package also the USB Drivers were installed and when i connected the S3 via USB, Drivers were installed under "WXP" without any errors (I use WXP instead of W7 or W8 which i have also available). At a certain time i recognised that the SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 MINI TOOLKIT Pro, give me an ADB environment just on a selectable menuelevel, which can be used more comfortable as the native ADB environment. I recognised that i could use there just a function like "reboot in recovery mode".
The problem just ist, that of coarse also there the "device not found" problem is just the same (same Environment on Laptop). I just have any idee anymore what to do, and either i can solve the problem finaly here with your support (maybe something else could be tried out using ODIN flashing), or i take the last exit "and buy me the mentioned Unbrick - JTAG.
Instead of this i would more like to buy you a beer or to donate for a beer for someone of you.
We will see what happens, anyway my best wishes to you.

Seems like a soft brick, nothing to worry about as of yet. Try using Unified Android Toolkit to flash stock firmware following the on screen instructions.

Discharge the battery and return it to the seller and get a replacement. This is last resort and that's what I did and got a free replacement in sacrifice of my data.

if you can not boot into recovery to wipe, flash this .tar.md5 as pda (the same for I8190 and I8190N) http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1540051&d=1354753346

NAND write start fail! Galaxy s6 edge ERROR please help

Today I attempted to flash CleanRom 1.5 OE2 for my galaxy s6 edge. On the cleanrom page it clearly states that your device must have the OE2 base or it will not work. As I am an idiot I overlooked this and flashed the rom on an earlier base. After this my phone gave me a message saying that my sim card (which was working before the flash) was not a verizon card and that it would not work. With some online research the fix appeared easy, unroot and restore to a stock firmware with odin. However when I attempt this I receive the following error:
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> G920VVRU1AOE2_G920VVZW1AOE2_G920VVRU1AOE2_HOME.tar.md5 is valid.

After researching this error, and not being able to find a definitive answer, it appears that the only fix is to flash a .pit file to my device (this is after trying multiple cables, multiple usb 2.0 and 3.0 ports, and multiple computers). However, there are no tutorials on how to flash a .pit file with the latest version of odin and there are many warnings that it may brick the device more. If anyone has information on how to fix the NAND Write Start!! FAIL! error it is much appreciated or how to actually flash the .pit file with the stock firmware.
I am attempting to flash the stock OE2 firmware for the verizon Galaxy s6 edge downloaded from
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
I have located a verizon .pit file from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/g925-pit-files-multi-thread-download-t3171636
Any help is much appreciated as I have no working phone at the moment. Thanks.

[Unbrick Help]! RP/No Load, BL/Wont Install N/A

Hey guys need a little help here, i just bought a motherboard for my girlfriends s5, the old one seemed to overheated and died, yeah seriously. was just sitting on the bed.
I just spent $100 to get an AT&T Mobo, cracked open the phone and installed it. (The LCD is really thin, but to my suprise is really strong)
Stock Android 5.0 L, tried to to downgrade to 4.4.4, realize i cant now because of locked bootloader. trying to just restore back to Android 5 now.
Recovery mode presents " Firmware upgrade encountered an issue, Please select recovery mode in kies"
Download mode presents " SW Rev Check Fail : [aboot] fused > 4 Binary 3 "
I suppose this is because i flashed 4.4.2 in Odin the following
AP, CP, CSC
BL was NOT flashed!
Currently tried to find BL, AP, CP and CSC for 5.0 L, figure it would solve the problem
However my google-fuu leads me no awnsers, Closest thing i could find was.
theandroidsoul dot com /att-galaxy-s5-lollipop-update-odin-firmware-80652/
looks like it will flash 5.0 software, but.
My odin fails everytime i try, I have tried this on two computers, Windows 7 & 8

Need Help, I may have bricked my SM-T900

Hi,
I got myself a Samsung Galaxy SM-T900.
it originally would boot up into GREY battery icon and then apparently switch off although I could see the backlight was dimly on.
( So may have battery or USB charging port problems as well)
It was reporting a custom rom state so I thought I would put it back to stock and actually managed to flash it with Odin 3.10 ( which worked i.e. reported GREEN)
Rom file is T900XXSBPL3_T900OXABOH4_HOME.tar.md5 from Sam Mobile.
Although I got a GREEN light from Odin.... on tablet boot up, the tablet reported " Firmware upgrade encountered an issue...……….in Kies and try again"
Kies (2.6) would not connect to the tablet, nor could I do an emergency firmware recovery as no device comes up in the device list.
So I decided to reflash the stock rom with Odin 3.10 which was a bad move. For some unknown reason it stopped flashing at about halfway.
So I restarted the flash and now always get stuck on

Could someone please help... I am a casual ROM updater and just follow instructions , but now I am completely stuck.
Thanks
Hi,
Could someone please point me to the PIT file for this SM-T900 UK ROM i.e. BTU
T900XXSBPL3_T900OXABOH4_HOME.tar.md5 from SamMobile for SM-T900
I suspect its in there, but I think I may have corrupted my partitions, so need a PIT file...… I think?
Thanks
