Cannot instal STOCK ROM after instlling CM12/13 - Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I have installed TWRP and CM13 on my S5 mini (G800F), but i got many bugs and restarts, so i decided to go back to Stock ROM, unfortunatelly i cannot do this.
When i open Odin and try to install STOCK Rom from samsungmobile everything is good, till the and, when i got:
Write finished (filed)
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
I tried on laptop and deskop using various USB port but everytime i get the same message.
And when i get the battery out and power on i get:
"firmware upgrade enountered an issue. Please select recoery mode in Kies and try again"
I tried to connet it with Kies in recovery odin mode but Kies does not recogenize it.
Then i need my phone so i decided to move back to CM this time i have installed the CM12, after using it, one day and having many restarst i tried one more to move to STOCK ROM. I downloaded the older verios of STOCK ROM then i had before. But i got the same messege.
Then someone tell mi to make full wipe, so using TWRP i done the full wipe, cache, data, system and internal storage/sd.
After wipeing internal storage i get only:
"firmware upgrade enountered an issue. Please select recoery mode in Kies and try again"
and cannot even install recovery via Odin any more, beacouse i get bugs ;/ ;/ ;/
as a result i cannot even use my phone with CM12/13.
1. Do You have any tips or solution of this problem?
2. How can I instal STOCK ROM or even CM?
3. Can I install the CM via Odin?
4. Do You have any other recovery for S5 mini G800F?

He there, sorry to hear you're having troubles with the phone. I experienced a similar problem and found that this worked:
Try and flash your stock firmware, when it fails, take out battery, put it back in and restart into recovery mode (stock recovery). From there, do a factory reset and wipe (not using Team Win Recovery Project, using the stock Recovery).
Now go back to odin and try flashing again.
Hope this helps...it worked for me.

Do this when error occurs after flashing stock firmware!
1. Flash stock firmware
2. Get error message
3. Remove battery and start in Recovery Mode
4. Flash hidden.img that you can extract of the stock file!
Quote from reddit.com:
If you've tried to flash firmware off of Sammobile, and had your heart stop when the flash fails, fear no longer.
To fix the soft brick:
Open the firmware file in winrar and extract the hidden.img. Rename it as hidden.img.tar.
Load the new file into the PDA tab, and flash.
When the phone boots, the displayed image will be touchwiz teal, there will be a little android and GALAXY spelt above it. Don't freak out.
Give it a minute and it should boot.

Hi, jest i did happend after flashing a stock firmware, but fortunatelly now it work.
How do i manage to fix it? I do not know. I just tried to flash it with a stock firmware one more time, and than tried to flash TWRP recovery via Odin. It get a fail. But the phone got power on, and it works till now !!!!
What was the problem? I have read that if you have the other CSC than XEO and want to flash the ROM with XEO CSC on S5 mini this problem occurs on many phone. Espesially on that from UK, so mine was.
thanks!!

[Q] Galaxy Ace stuck in reboot loop

My Galaxy Ace is stuck in a reboot loop after trying to flash 2.3.6 onto it, when it had 2.3.5 on it previously.
I've used ODIN and no matter what firmware I try to flash onto it, it just goes into a reboot loop.
Any idea how to fix it?
Did you try to do a wipe?

press down home button and then power on phone ...--> you will enter into recovery mode .
select wipe with help of volume keys and there you go out of bootloop
My Galaxy Ace is also in some sorta reboot loop.
Everything was working fine with it (phone is rooted and CWM installed) until I did a phone reset because I was giving the phone to my gf. After doing this the phone reboots, the blue samsung logo plays (without sound) and then repeats ad-infinitum. I can get into recovery mode and download mode ok and I've tried wipe and even restored a CWM backup (it says it was successful) but the phone just keeps rebooting. I can see the phone in odin but I've never tried to flash anything onto it and quite frankly I'm unsure whether it would just make things worse (if it needs to go back to Samsung for repair). Any help would be appreciated...
If you have cwm ..why dont you download some custom rom like cm7and flash it ..that would bring your phone back to life ...then you can downgrade to stock rom if you want ...and btw in cwm try cache partition , clear data /factory reset and clear dalvik cache ..see if it boots after you do this ..

when i always flash by odin or by cwm i always do wipe , wipe cache and wipe dalvik, this helps me everytime
I managed to flash a firmware from samfirmware and it fixed the reboot.
Now my issue is when I connect to Kies, it says there's an updated firmware for the phone but it fails every attempt to install it. I went back to samfirmware and found this firmware: S5830ZSKPD ## but when I download and extract it there's only 1 x MD5 file and 1 x DLL file?! The other firmware had the 4 or 5 files needed to include in Odin... any ideas guys?
I think its a "one package file " ..I forgot the correct name but there is some option like that in odin ..dont worry it contains all the required files ..and if you are scared to do it then go to you tube ..there are many tutorials showing it then...

Yep, that's exactly what it was, thanks again.
Unfortunately with this firmware, Kies doesn't recognise it and provides no info.
I flashed back to the older firmware... I'll just have to keep experimenting I guess.

many people says, don't upgrade the firmware with KIES.

Well I could flash it with Odin if I had the firmware but I don't.
It appears it's not available on SamFirmware.com

PDA:KPD / PHONE:KPD / CSC:KPC (THL)
Thanks

Now Kies says I'm using the latest which is a good start : )
Now I just need to find a way to root my SGS2 GT-I9100T
U can try a custom ROM from the Developer's forums here.
I also once stucked in the Reboot Loop..............
But then I installed a custom or if you want features from a official Rom, you can install Stock Based custom ROm from the Developer forums of Galaxy Ace. Really good Rom have been made by the developers
In the chance that someone else is looking for this latest OEM firmware update:
PDA:KPD / PHONE:KPD / CSC:KPC (THL)
It can be downloaded from: http://translate.googleusercontent....flgljh&usg=ALkJrhiMpHV83dugh4RGwhKpyjIrYIgn2Q
It is in "one part file" format and can be flashed using Odin.
whatever may be the problem ......just rem to keep a backup of ur previously used rom and just flash it with cwm...

PS : while flasing with odin : "big partition size!!"

Help me please

I tried to flash a stock rom but it was on bootloop.
So i went to odin on my pc and selected stock rom for PDA and clicked on start.
Now when i turn my phone on it says:
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again
Retry the odin flashing of the same stock rom. Next time if you get bootloops then go to recovery and just clear the cache and then reboot.
Make sure your downloaded zip is not corrupted.

[Q] How to fix Galaxy Mini S5570I brick

I have rooted my S5570I with universal root I found here, and it worked, but I decided to install MIUI and I forgot to install Clockwork Recovery, so it failed, and now when i try to turn on my phone it just gets stuck on boot. But I can access download and recovery mode. When I go to recovery, it says that it's unable to mount /system. And when I try to flash stock firmware in odin (Indian firmware on phone from Croatia, I have read that it's the same, only that my phone will be named Galaxy Pop) it won't discover my phone. (It is in download mode) And also kies can't discover it. Before I try to flash in odin, I make sure that no kies processes are open in task manager. I tried to install Clockwork recovery with flashing in normal android recovery, and it says that it's complete, and when I press reboot, take out the battery, and go to recovery again, it's the same. Can anyone help?

Bricked or not?

Hi everybody
Im new here and to flahing new Roms and stuff.
i believe my phone is bricked and im struggling to get it opperational. Here is what happened...
I have a GT-N7000 on 4. 1. 2 Jelly Bean, which i rooted and flashed to custom ROM CynoganenMod 12 on 5. 0 Lollipop. All was going fine, i rooted my phone, installation went accordingly. After a week or so whithout any problems, my phone started to freez, slag and hang which it never did before, so i decided to flash it back on 4. 1. 2 Jelly Bean I did all as is step by step on Odin 3.-v1.8. When my booted, it booted into System Recovery...
reboot system now (I did)
apply update from ADB
apply update from external storage (I did)
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partion
apply update from cache
-----------------------------------------------
# MANUAL MODE #
-- Applying Multi-CSC. . .
E : All failed to mount and open in red ( Invalid argument )
Nothing seems to work, so when i pull out the battery but it back and press "Volume down, Menu and Power button it takes me to the screen with the Warning and yellow triangle where i can install a custom ROM...
Volume up : Continue
Volume down : Cancel ( restart ) (I did)
When i Volume up it takes me to...
ODIN MODE
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD : NO
CURRANT BINARY : SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
My problem is i have no clue what my PDA nor my CSC code is. Im from South Africa and not sure either which of these are correct.... XFV, XFC, XFM, XFA (im not network locked) so i dont know which firmware to flash with Odin to make my phone opperational again? Any help please guys.

Download Philz kernel in tar.md5 format and flash using Odin... Then try to boot into recovery. You should see cwm. Factory reset and flash a stock rom again.

I have tried Phillz and did as you suggested. Im confident that i dont have the correct firmware. I downloaded this from Sammobile : N7000XXLSZ_N7000OJVLSB_N7000LSO_HOME.tar.md5.
Not sure how to go about this....
Doesn't matter what firmware you had.. Once you do a factory reset you can flash any rom made for the n7000
Were you able to get into Philz cwm recovery after you flashed the kernel?
Hi there.
I am happy to report that my phone is back to its original state. Phew, that wat too close for comfort.
I figured that it was obivously bricked or something close to it.
The problem was that i repartitioned it with the wrong PIT file and wrong kernel. Why i did that, i dont know? So i found firmware i thought would be the correct one! In its bricked state i copied the file superuser to my external, so can unzipit in CWM recovery. I download a file flashprogram Samsung N7000 +Pit. I then unzipped it and found the .Pit file which i flashed onOdin3 v1.85 at the same time with the firmware, have it repartitioned, and install the firmware.
It passed with success. Go Green!!! )
It booted to Philz recovery and installed the zip file superuser, took your advice then rebooted.
My phone switched on but a page came up where i had to give a password decrypting the device storage. Freaked out repeated the same prosesswith Odin and it started up normaly and suprised to see it restored to its original state* *smile*
*Just be carefull not to go flash the wrong stuff on your phone if your not sure what you are doing ( like i did! )*
I took your advice to heart and want to thank you for your expertieze. I learned alot from my phone the past 3days.
Regards.Johan
