Galaxy S5 Lolipop Stuck on at&t logo - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5

Help, I tried to install xposed with flashfire. However upon trying to boot I get stuck on the at&t logo. I tried using odin to flash stock firmware but I get an auth failed error. I was using 'G900A_Downgrade_to_NCE.tar.mdf5' I tried doing the stock paritions that didn't work either nor did the kerenel. I'm not sure what to do. Am I sole out of luck?

[Q] Kinda odd bootloop (help ASAP, pls)

Sooo, I got a problem with my Galaxy Mini 2.
First, I wanted to flash Cm11 (by TheWhisp), but something went wrong during flashing process, and my device bootlooped.
I tried to go into recovery, but it didn't work.
Than I thought it might be a good idea to flash stock ROM via odin. I did it once in the past, with a succesful outcomes, so I fought it will work again.
This ended with a bootloop, only change was the logo during boot process. Than I tried to flash recovery but it didn't change anything.
So my phone is in bootloop, stock ROM flashing doesn't help, and I can't run recovery.
Any ideas how can I fix it?

Soft-Bricked my SM-G870A

I was in the process of downgrading my phone from 5.1.1 to 4.4.2.
I started here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...to-root-g870aucu1aoa1-4-4-4-2-7-2015-t3025119
I accidentally flashed the second Kernel first and the then my phone wouldn't boot, just boot-looped to to the recovery, I tried to do a factory reset/wiped, but still had same issue, then I factory reset/wiped and then cleared the cache. Same issue. I have tried updating to stock 5.1.1 roms, 4.4.2 roms, stock rooted roms, I have tried to just about everything I can find online. I either get failures ranging from the following:
I'm trying to get my phone working again by flashing the stock firmware with odin3 (tried 3.9 and 3.10) but it fails every time and gives me the error "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 2 > Binary 1" while in download mode..
http://androidforums.com/threads/sm...wnload-recovery-still-work-cant-flash.930762/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/sm-g870a-samsung-s5-active-softbricked-t3161137
I have also tried this: http://www.droidviews.com/fix-status-7-error-while-installing-ota-update-or-roms/
since I was getting a status 7 error, but then I got another error after that (error is sideload package)
I can get to Custom OS download function and I can get to the boot recovery.
I honestly don't care if this phone is rooted or not, stock rom or not, but I need to get it back up and running, please help, Samsungs are new to me.
***UPDATE***
I just wanted to let everyone know that after about 30 different files, some through Odin, some through Recovery I finally got one to install and fix my AOS. The file that finally didn't fail to load in Recovery was Here: www androidfilehost com / ?w=search&s=g870a <--Add in the dots and remove the spaces, and make it a secure website.
It was more specifically G870A_OF3_tJ3_OTA.zip, it did fail something at the end of the recovery but it stayed on the screen for less than a second so I didn't see what failed but my phone is working now.
Hopefully one of those files will help someone else out.

I don't know if you've figured out by now, but you can't downgrade from 5.0+ to KitKat.

Hi there, Chosenbc!
I am glad to read, that you figured iout to unbrick your G870A. Now I want to go the same way and downloaded that specific file, you mentioned. I know, how to flash through Odin a tar-File, but how did you flash through recovery that zip-file ? Via ADB ? Or sd-card in recovery ?
Done! (Unbrick)

Worked for me too! Thanks Chosenbc!
BTW, I loaded it using the stock recovery. Took about 4 minutes to load and 2-3 more to boot up. Installs Android 5.1.1
I am having a the same issue. I was on a stock 5.1.1, didn't read that this kernel was for 4.2.2 Now my phone will not boot.
I have tried using ODIN to no success. Keeps failing every time I try to flash Stock Rom. I have tried probably 4 different stock..... Nothing. I have tried what you sugested, no succes. Can someone please help me get my phone out of Limbo..... SM-G870A PLEASE!!!

Im in the same boat. Trying the files from OP first. Hopefully one works. I presume we need to move the OP zip file to the sd card on the phone, and update from recovery mode on the phone?
I just got a SM-G870A from a buddy of mine, he says he made the same mistake as the OP. Tried going from PB3 to NE4. He says he tried Odin flashing system images, kernels, and bootloader.
The system recovery says OC5.
Do I need to walk my flashes up OC5-OF2 - OF2-OF3 - OF3-OJ3 to fix this soft brick??
Thank you Chosenbc!!!!!!!!!!!! after several days (more than 5 weeks) I could unbrick my SM-G870A and this was possible all because of you and who uploaded the working Rom. Thank you, thank you thank you! for making this post!

I assume you did the same as I and tried flashing the recovery through odin, this leads to the revovery not working. Just root your phone using CF auto root. You then download the app flashify. Grant root acces.
Download the twrp-3.0.1-0-noblelte.img
Falsh it through flashify and then reboot recovery
MOHSIN
i have samsung galaxy note 5 SM-N920CD today i am trying to root my phone using CF-Auto root via odin3. then my phone stuck on blue screen with: An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software. it is also not opening download mode.
i tried smart switch but it could search my device SM-N920CD
what should i do. please anyone help me :crying:
Thanks in advance.

[Q] can't install TWRP on SM-T810 running Nougat

I just received a Galaxy S2 SM-T810 running Nougat. It appears to be in perfect condition. I have Odin 3.1.2. and TWRP twrp_3.1.0-1_sm-t810_13317.tar. I have been unable to get TWRP installed. I have made multiple attempts, and it keeps the stock recovery.
Can anyone tell me why this is failing? Odin says it was successful. Any help would be appreciated. :crying:
Thanks in advance.
Try it again without Odin. ADB..

There was no option to do that. I looked thinking that might have been it,

Thank you. that's was quite useless.
I have flashed TWRP on quite a few devices.
I kept getting a weird screen instead of TWRP and I used ODIN 3.12.3 and TWRP 3.1.0-1 and then tried 3.1.1.1 that failed too. I finally ended up using ODIN 3.12.5 and TWRP 3.1.0-1 I also had flashed the tablet back to 6.01, and then back to 7.0. When I tried to use ODIN to reflash directly to 7.0 again it basically didn't do anything so I had to flash backward first. I think the partitions for my stock ROM were somehow messed up, and flashing back to 6.01 and then back up to 7.0 fixed it. Even with that, I had to use the older TWRP 3.1.0-1 I think that was the worst time I ever had getting a device rooted.

Google's new API might have something to do with that. I'm not sure. Did you end up getting a systemless root on the device with 6.0 and above

Do you have usb debugging enabled? You have to use adb logcat in cmd while the device is connected and is booting.
I tried to install stock rom using twrp but zip is failing.. file is good only, I tried different firmwares..same errors

You can't flash Samsung stock ROM through TWRP, you need ODIN to do so. You can get your stock ROM from here (SM-N950F).
I tried using odin, it passed and boot loop still there
