s5 active fails to flash stock ROM - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5

I started getting a bootloop yesterday on my S5 Active g870A. I have repeatedly tried loading the stock firmware from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2799754 with no luck at all. I have deleted and reinstalled Odin, the drivers AND the firmware to my laptop but the action always fails in Odin and the log always says the same thing.
The phone is in download mode and I have followed the instructions in the thread above every time. Can anyone help me out?
Here is a screen shot of the odin log....

[Q] [Brick]Unable to find solution througout the forums

I tried to install CM9 on Galaxy Tab P1000L as follows:
-Downloaded Heimdall and the Clockworkmod recovery, but got stuck 'cause heimdall wouldn't finish installing. http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_p1l
-Then, I searched and found the patch for bootloader( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071 ) , but after that my tab got stuck at the SAMSUNG logo; I couldn't even boot on recovery mode, only download mode.
-I tried Odin, but was having problems with the libusb drivers, so I uninstalled them, and then my pc recognized my tab in download mode. Then I flashed stock ROM but after Odin finished flashing, my tab rebooted and the screen wouldn't turn on. The buttons even lit up and the tab played a sound but that was its last sign of life.
Now, when I plug the tablet, it still appears on Odin, but when I try flashing anything it says " Can't open the serial(COM) port." I'm using Windows 7 x64, I have SDK, heimdall, odin, stock & cyanogen ROMs, overcome kernel. I'm not sure if it's bricked or not, 'cause I still can see it on ODIN.
Sorry for bothering u guys, but I read so many threads that I got lost. Pls, save me!!

[Q] Need help with a U.S At&t S4 Active

I bought it used and it came with Stock Android 4.2. I tried upgrading it to 4.4 and I ran into trouble. I tried using methods described in this forum to revert it back to its stock rom but I can't get it to work at all. I am using Odin but I think the MTP USB device drivers are not installing properly on my laptop, which might be causing issues with Odin. I took a screen shot of the message I got while trying to flash a stock rom using Odin. Any help would be awesome. Thanks.
Edit: The only thing I can do with my phone right now is go into Download mode. I can't go into recovery mode and it won't boot either. I already tried Oneclick_I537UCUAMF1 with Odin and I537UCUBML2 to no avail.
UPDATE: just tried the SGH-I537UCUCNE3_v4.4.2_ATT_ALL and that seems to have done the trick.

unable to do emergency recovery after attempted firmware update.

I saw I had a update for my phone so I went though kies like normal and let it do its thing. The update downloaded but it didn't complete the update and now my phone is pretty much stuck in recovery mode with no options to do a factory reset and saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again." I have tried this multiple times and with multiple cables including the one that came with the phone and pretty much a no go there. After those failed attempts I downloaded the current version from Sam Mobile and am trying to flash it with odin which is currently not going anywhere just sitting at system.img.ext4 and not progressing I have tried multiple versions of odin and it just keeps getting stuck at that point. Is there a way I can get my phone working again or am I screwed?
Check out this thread. It's an alternative to Odin. Thread if for S6 but this should work on the Note 4. I have not tried this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...p/flash-stock-firmware-using-samsung-t3079176
You shouldn't use kies use smartswitch.
Note 4 and S6 are setup for smartswitch.

soft-bricked odin passes same result

so i recently got a note 3 from a friend to fix for her. it boots to the samsung logo then vibrates and reboots over and over, recovery just says "booting recovery" then it goes blank and reboots to the same booting recovery screen, shes doesnt know what version it had prior to bricking. she said one day it was working then turned off and never back on again, the odin mode screen had a2, a3 on it ill post a pic later anyway i can get into download mode so i figured id just flash with odin and be good, i tried to narrow down the proper firmware with the a3, but after flashing nc2, nl1, oc1, im still stuck odin says everything passed, i tried flashing the big main file, tried flashing them in each box at the same time, even tried it with the pit file, tried flashing with odin 3.9 and 3.10.7. same result odin says passed still cant access recovery or os. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks
Open Odin, uncheck everything except f reset time, flash rom. When you see reset on the statutes window, remove USB cable from the phone, remove battery, wait 5 seconds, replace battery, boot directly into recovery, perform a factory wipe, reboot.
does it matter what version i flash? since im not really sure what version it had prior?
I can't figure out how to upload a photo I have xda 4.0, and can't post outside links yet. Anyway
It says
Product name:N900A
Current binary: Samsung official
System status official
Knox void status 0x0
Qualcomm Secureboot enabled(csb)
Ap swrev s2 t2 a2 a3 p2
Secure download enable
Udc start
Hope that helps
Ran Odin again with the settings you said, after the battery pull the phone says recovery booting, then turned off vibrated twice then same screen again and again. Thanks for the suggestion though any our ideas? I was searching and thought I seen somewhere that to unbrick it it needs to be the same firmware it had before, but I don't know what that was.

You should probably ask her if she had Lollipop. If she did then that narrows it down to OC1 or OC2.
She doesn't know, not very phone literate as far as software, any ideas? I read in another thread to flash a modified version of nc2 but can't seem to find that version, this is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703006
Don't know if I can't find it, kinda confusing as far as what I need, like I said I've tried everything except oc2 cant find a link I've tried googling, and that thread says Odin files but can't find a full one for oc2, there's ones for safestrap but can't find Odin

Gear S2 Classic is Stuck On Update Loop

UPDATE: I've submitted a delete request for this post since it was moved to the Samsung Gear S2 group.
I've flashed the R732XXU2AOJ3 firmware form this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/gear-s2/tutorial-downgrade-gear-s2-sport-t3334123 using Odin and the watch started properly and I could connect it to my phone. The phone app suggested an update (I don't remember the version), after copying the update to the watch it has restarted itself and performed the 0 to 100% update step. After reaching the 100% it just shuts down, every time I turn it on it goes again through the update process (picture attached) and shuts down.
Using the normal bootloader factory reset doesn't work and the phone it stuck on the boot logo when using that. Now even if I flash the R732XXU2AOJ3 or the R732XXU2EQH1 firmware successfully using Odin I’m still stuck on the update process as shown in the attached picture. By the way I only have the AP, BL and CSC files I couldn’t find the PIT file for those versions anywhere. The watch was always used with its official stock firmware.
Thread closed at Op's request.
Thanks
