Thats your issue right there. You cant downgrade from U4 firmware to a U3 firmware. Your best bet would be flashing the u4 combo file for 7.1 then flashing the u3 system only from a u3 firmware, im not 100% sure if the u4 bootloader has binary check like the new s9 / s9+ has but thats your only option, once you took the u4 ota you locked yourself to 8.0 and no direct route to 7.1.1 now

I understand about not being able to downgrade but someone mentioned a v4 combo nougat rom but have been searching and have only been able to find up to version 3 bootloader. have

[Q] Bricked ? ? ?

SGH-I537 AT&T
1. Phone is never seen by or connects to Kies, just stays at Connecting. USB drivers are installed, and when connected to PC you get device connection tone, but phone is not seen in My Computer like normal.
When I enter the Model # SGH-I537 and the SN#, it comes back with...Please check the model name and enter it. Or it connects and message comes back from Samsung saying something like it can't verify the phone. For some stupid reason I can't find the latest official firmware for my phone 4.4.2, all I can find is 4.2.2.
Someone told me if you flash using Odin that you need to flash with the same firmware that is currently on your phone. I also hate to use Odin as I've heard of so many people bricking their phone with Odin. I'm not sure what's available for the I537, but once when I bricked my S2, I was able to connect a USB jig that shorted a couple of the pins, and this allowed me to boot into recovery. I wish I had something this simple of my S4 Active.
I'm in a bad way, I sold this phone, so I went into recovery to do wipe and reset the phone to factory, wipe was successful, but when rebooted it would only boot to Download mode. So then I tried to use Kies, and with Kies I never actually got into recovery, then the next time I rebooted, it went the Firmware upgrade encountered an issue for Kies, and is currently stuck there. I listed the phone online for sale and was purchased overnight. Now I have a phone that is worthless in its current state. Phone was only rooted, its never had anything else on it but stock firmware. I rooted it to use battery savers and get rid of some of the bloat.
I at updated it OTA to 4.4.2, and then rooted with towel. I tried to used Odin to push 4.3 I got off XDA official firmware, but that just failed. Anyone have an bright ideas? Help Please ! ! !

Kies does not work with the i537, AT&T will not allow Samsung to release any of the firmware. You have nothing to worry about though, all you need to do is put the phone in download mode and use Odin to flash the ML2 package. MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT LOAD THE BOOTLOADER IN ODIN, IT WILL FAIL TO FLASH. Flash the other 3 files in Odin, reboot the phone to stock recovery and flash the NE3 OTA.
You're fine, it'll be in working condition by the end of the night.
Sounds Positive

Thanks for you help on this holiday weekend! I will give this a try tomorrow and cross my fingers. I was able to download the ML2 package, but I'm not sure about the NE3 OTA, I'm getting a lot of different hits when I do a search for it. Could you possible reply back with a link? I not sure what NE3 is, was that an update? I basically want to leave the phone stock for the new owner. Or are you saying that the ML2 flash will fix my phone, and after I have successfully booted my phone, I can go into settings/about phone/ software update, and this will give me NE3 OTA?
I see two different files:
ML2 to NE3 OTA File 444 MB
NC9 to NE3 OTA File 66.4 MB
BTW, I read somewhere in a post that if you are going to run/use odin, then you can not have Kies installed on your PC, any truth to this?

I've never heard about the Kies / Odin issue, although that doesn't mean it's not true in certain cases.
NE3 is the latest firmware, you mentioned you were already on 4.4.2, so this will ensure that you're back on 4.4.2, and should fix some of the bugs with the original 4.4.2 OTA that was pushed a couple months ago.
The 2 OTA files you referenced are for updating from different firmware. So since your phone will be on ML2 and you're going to update it to NE3, you need to download the 444MB file and flash it through stock recovery.

Need help PLEASE! Samsung Galaxy Note 8 SM-N950N Exynos 8895 STUCK IN DOWNLOAD MODE

So I am a poor guy that has a dream of using a Note 8 for this is my dream phone. Somebody post a listing in Facebook that his note 8 is somewhat useless for he don't know what is the problem and he is selling it as a bargain so I grab it.

Hi am wondering if you could help with my Galaxy Note 8
I am able to install the firmware using ODIN without any errors on download mode but after ODIN is finished the phone turns off and does not boot.
I have taken the phone to a repair shop as well and they have confirmed that there is no hardware issues,

I accidentaly locked bootloader with TWRP installed. NEED HELP!

Hello guys. I ruined my phone pretty bad.
It's a long story, but i had android 8 on my note 8 rooted with magisk. I decided to update, so i used smart swich to do it (first mistake).
The software updated and got stuck to samsung logo.
After i flashed TWRP and installed magisk again, the phone did start, i did setup things etc.
Then it came the 2nd big mistake. I accidentally locked OEM with TWRP intalled (i forgot i didnt fully clean my phone from unwanted software before doing that).
Then my phone was looping because of FRP protection.
In the download mode it was telling me the Current binary was "custom".
I downloaded lastest rom from UDPATO and tried to flash the new fresh untouched ROM.
But i got an error SW REV. CHECK FAIL(BOOTLOADER) DEVICE: 12, BINARY 5. After that, the CURRENT BINARY went to "Samsung Official" and instead of FRP protection bootloop i got stuck with the "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use Emergency recovery function in Smart Switch PC software." message.
I know what that means, I have a newer bootlaoder then the one i try to install, but did not find a post on this entire internet about bootloader version 12 on note 8!
I know I was dumb by locking the bootloader with twrp install in the first place, but there is any way to make it possible to flash the ROM via Odin?
I can't find a binary with version 12 of bootloader.
I can acces download mode, but anything else I do ends with the error: "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use Emergency recovery function in Smart Switch PC software."
This is the log from Odin.

Use samfirm.exe or frija to download the latest firmware for your phone (Both can be found in xda search).
The firmware will be official but knox will ALWAYS be tripped (0x1) meaning no more Samsung Pay and other knox related apps. No going back period!
As you noticed once on bootloader version 12 ("C") it won't accept any bootloader versions lower then 12. No going back to 11 or 10 or 9 or ..... No downgrading!

You guys just saved my day! Thanks, didnt knew about samfirm, or frija. Both are great tools.
Thank GOD for this community, this is the reason I AM NEVER GONNA HAVE ANOTHER IPHONE AGAIN.
I owned only 1, to see how it is, between androids.
Thank you guys again, Odin is doing his job on the background.
Great response time too!

Hi all,

Frst in red it was saying something ike
Hash of Data Does Not Match Digest in Descriptor​Now it only says "DEBORE :" nothing behind it....
I tried installing HOME_CSC_OXM_G998BOXM4BULI from HOME_CSC_OXM_G998BOXM4BVB1 (I entered all 4 flles in ODIN, ticked only Auto_Reboot and F.Rest Time ticked.
I cannot restart it or shut it off. It always come back to that screen.
Can anyone help?
In future you'll find that the error has occured screen is actually download mode it just displays a different screen. If you plug your phone in it registers and flashes fine from that screen.

make sure you get the latest firmware using frija and delete then reinstall latest drivers from samsung. use a different cable perhaps and a usb 2.0 port. If your quick you can access download mode by inserting the cable just as the phone reboots from button combo

My phone stuck in Download mode right now and it shows
partition vbmeta
Reason vbmeta: Error verifying vbmeta image:
0_0INDIVLDUMT_EDRHS_IMTHSGAUEMSAC
if your phone won't boot because of verified boot, either flash back to stock or flash vbmeta_disabled.tar
if you tried to patch your boot.img this wouldn't really be a problem because magisk patches vbmeta for you when you patch.
if you tried to flash a magisk zip you should have followed instructions for twrp which requires flashing vbmeta_disable.tar in Odin. in other words you couldn't have followed instructions.

bootloader is locked!! You got a US phone version, you can not Root neither install a custom Rom or TWRP.
Download the last official Rom for your phone, and flash it through Odin. Then your phone will work again.
