So Iwas using a custom ROM on STOCK slot and was about to install a different ROM.
In TWRP, I chose advanced wipe and typed "yes"

Cannot boot into anything excepy download and stock android recovery.
I tried re-partitioning and flashing stock phone files and odin fails every time.
Phone says sw rev check fails fused1 > binary2

EDIT: found an all in one odin file and it seems to be flashing fine, will update OP when finished
EDIT 2: that worked.

Softbricked AT&T Galaxy S5

I purchased a soft bricked sm-g900a phone off of Ebay with the idea of using Odin to reflash and recover the phone. Since the phone was purchased soft bricked I do not have a history on what firmware was running on the phone or what the previous owner flashed that may have caused the phone not to boot to the OS or into recovery. I am assuming the previous owner was on 5.0 and tried to downgrade and ran into problems.
Short description of the current state of the phone:
1. Phone will boot into Odin Mode and can be flashed using Odin.
2. Phone will start to boot to recovery but sticks at "Recovery Booting. . . ." and reboots after about 30 seconds
3. Phone boots to Samsung logo and reboots after about 30 seconds.
What works:
Using Odin I can flash the following without errors: After flashing the phone exhibits the behavior above.
G900A_OC4_Stock_Kernel.tar.md5,
G900A_OA1_Stock_Kernel.tar.md5
G900A_OC4_Stock_Modem.tar.md5,
G900A_OC4_Stock_Partitions.tar.md5
G900AUCU3BOC4_OneClick..exe - reboots to recovery and "Recovery Booting. . . ."
I can flash SM-G900A_pit.pit with Odin 3.07 but not 3.09 or 3.10.
What does not work.

Same errors as above .
Tried to use Kies to recover the phone. It goes through the process of recovering with 4.4.2 and crashes about the same place flashing wit Odin does.
I assume if I could get into recovery to do a factory wipe I would be able to get the phone to boot. I have read multiple forum posts and blogs on getting the bricked phone to work where most recommend flashing G900A_Downgrade_to_NCE.tar.md5 and then if you can't get into recovery to flash either G900A_OC4_Stock_Kernel.tar.md5 or G900A_OA1_Stock_Kernel.tar.md5 and then you should be able to get into recovery. This of course has not worked for me.
Does anyone have any idea how I might go about getting this phone to boot into recovery? Also is it possible to have the local AT&T store re flash 5.0 on the phone.
I know it is a risk buying soft bricked phones but I sure would not like to have an expensive paper weight.

Its hard to tell what version it was on previously since recovery wont even boot, but from how its acting i'd say it was on LP and bricked for a KK flash, so you flashing NCE(Kitkat) is doing zilch. Seeing as there is no option for you to root, and im assuming you arent interested in that anyway, i would just take it to bestbuy or the att store and get them to reflash it, just say you got it off ebay and it was like that.

I took the phone to BestBuy and the guy there flashed it with 5.0.1 with the same results. Boots to the Recovery Booting. . . . screen for about 30 seconds and then reboots. My daughter is taking it to an AT&T repair center to see if they have any better luck.

Have you tried flashing the boot image?

Boot image. Not sure which file you are talking about.
Could you give me a little more information or a link to the file?

Re: Softbricked AT&T Galaxy S5
If you have the oc4 update zip, in the zip should be a boot image, create an md5 tar file from it then flash in AP. If that doesn't work, you flashed a bad kernel and may have to use jtag to fully recover. Or bring it to a repair facility to have them do it.

My daughter took the phone to an AT&T repair center and they also could not successfully flash the phone. The only OC4 update i have found is the G900AUCU3BOC4_OneClick..exe update and I do not believe I can extract the boot image from that update. Is there another source of the OC4 update available where I could obtain the boot image.
Thanks for the help everyone.

I'll look for the DL link. But if they tried flashing it, and it didn't work. You may be SOL.

Cannot instal STOCK ROM after instlling CM12/13

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!!

odin flash error. Flash keeps failing. Emmc error

ok so i have a note 4 n910t. It started to act up two days ago rebooting randomly and i did a factory reset along with clearing cache. It was on stock 5.1.1 dok2. I then tried to odin the firmware instead and i ran into some errors. Odin wouldnt finish and always fails and the phone in download mode says flash error failed and sometimes i had emmc error.
I tried even the PIT file with the stock firmware. I cannot try any other firmware with odin because you cannot downgrade after on dok2.
Can someone please help with this issue?

Did you try smartswitch?

Load the files in respective slots of odin, select f.time reset and repartition, untick auto reboot.

I have flashed all the portions of the recovery firmware including CSC, it completed successfully in odin, then I pulled the battery out and put back in tried to boot into recovery still did not go... it showed 'installing updates' and then blank. Do I have to reflash the recovery firmware then flash stock firmware via odin after I pull the battery ?

The fact is, the emmc trips when the device heats up.
One user, actually kept an ice bag on the device while it was booting. The device booted successfully.
This is actually a hardware brick, which probably can't be fixed with any software.

I had the same problems. This is a hardware error (emmc = flashmemory). The only solution is to replace you motherboard. I ordered one on aliexpress and replaced it myself with a tutrial found on youtube. Very easy.
My phone is working perfect now.
