Note 9 SM-N960U Flash Issues - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Greetings all,
I'm attempting to flash my SM-N960U from ATT to Verizon. I've tried the Verizon version: SM-N960U VZW, which passes in Odin but the phone fails to mount the data. I get the following message on the phone:
/////
#Reboot Recovery Cause is [[odin]RebootRecoveryAfterOdinDL]#
Support SINGLE-SKU
Block-Based OTA
Supported API: 3
-- Resizing...
E: failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
can't mount '/data', rc = '-1'(Invalid argument)
:failed the resizing-data
\\\\\
I tried the stock version SM-N960U1 XAA - which fails. From what I've researched online, the SM-N960U version should be able to work on Verizon when flashed successfully.
Odin log:

Thanks for any feedback.

Don't think you can because one is GSM and the other is CDMA.

[Q] [HELP] Samsung Galaxy S Anycall M110S Nandroid Backup/ Soft Brick

Good Day Folks.
So yesterday I was flashing my Samsung Galaxy S M110S (Korean Version)
with a stock rom
(M110S-Gingerbread-HOME-IMAGE-REV03-VG26-1812-USER.tar) and installing
Tegrak Kernel V29.
Everything works smoothly until I flashed a ClockworkMOD Recovery not
intended for my phone(sorry I was foolish and flash a CWM meant for
other device) then when I open my device I am always brought to this
(Samsung Stock Recovery)
Samsung utils blah. blah.
# MANUAL MODE #
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid Argument)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/recovery_kernel_log
E:copy kernel file :: Can't open /cache/recovery/recovery_kernel_log
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid Argument)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
blah.blah

I am only allowed to navigate with 3 options; Reboot, Wipe Data, Wipe
Partition. Rebooting only brings me to the recovery, both wipes
provides the same error.
So I try to flash again with the same stock rom and ODIN keeps on
throwing me this:

Left with no idea, I flashed an iCarus SpeedMod kernel(via ODIN) to see
what will happen. Luckily the recovery is now CWM and I was entitled
with so many options. One of this is the Backup/Restore option so I
think that if I have the right backup files stated below, I can put it
into the internal SD card(I have access) and launch the Restore
option to bring my phone back to life.
cache.img
data.img
dbdata.img
nandroid.md5
and all the other files you get when backup-ing files using CWM.
I am asking for your full help. Please be noted that my device:
Can access Download Mode
Can access Recovery Mode(no function)
Can be recognized by ODIN and be flashed.
...and is in need for a very big help!
So for those of you who has a nandroid backup(if my terms are correct)
of a Samsung Galaxy S M110S or has an idea to resurrect my device I
will be very thankful.
And If I can add I can also select Apply Update Via ZIP. Does that mean
I can also apply zip updates? If yes, where can I find those?
please help me with this one.

tnx for the reply
i tried gingerbread it never works :/ kies cant open the tab my rom was froyo 2.2
He meant you should flash GB using Odin, not upgrade via Kies.
Follow my signature, download Overcome's PDF guide, and GB-Stock-Safe-v5 (it has all the tools you need in it).
Open the guide, jump to page 7, put tab to download mode, and flash according to that guide.
so no need to kies. cuz when it happen i tried other tut required kies i couldn't pass the first stage in oden then it bricked
i'll try it hope it will work tnx guys
sorry guys same result
it failed in the end of first stage
i got this message in odin

Flashing ROM is failed

Hi,
I have Samsung Galaxy S3 I9305 LTE phone made in Vietnam. Initially I got the Samsung Logo stuck issue. In the stock recovery mode i got the following error.
"E:failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)".
I tried to wipe cache partition and checked. but no luck.
Then I rooted the phone using the following file:
CF-Auto-Root-m3-m3zh-gti9305.tar.zip
Then i installed the CWM recovery using the following file:
CWM_touch_6.0.4.7_i9305.tar
Then I went to CWM recovery and did the following things:
back up to /SD card
wipe data/factory reset
format /system
format /data
wipe dalvik cache
then First I tried to flash the 2 ROMs(I9305XXUFNL1_I9305H3GFNL1_I9305XXUFOA1_HOME.tar.md5 and I9305XXUFNL1_I9305ORLFOB1_I9305XXUFOA1_HOME.tar.md5) . Both are installed. but logo issue was still there. Then I found the ROM(I9305XXUENH1_I9305FTMENJ1_I9305XXUENG1_HOME.tar.md5) using KIES using model no and serial no.
I flashed that ROM using ODIN and ROM installation is failed. Following is the ODIN Log.

Then I went to Android Recovery Mode and still I'm getting the following error:

Note: I did not do any mount in recovery mode
Please help me on this.

Softbricked my old Galay GT P1000 - can anyone help.

Heyas. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I'm trying to refresh an old Galaxy Tab (GT-P1000) for my son. Not the first time I've done this but the first time I've hit a deadlock.
I've reviewed the [Guide]How to unbrick your galaxy tab. Not helping unfortunately.
Background:
I've installed TWRP (CF-Root-TAB7_XX_OXA_JQ1-v3.3-CWM3RFS.tar) on the device using ODIN. Installed OK. Booted into the OS fine afterwards.
I copied the firmware (cm-13.0-20160519-UNOFFICIAL-p1.zip) and GAPPS from the microsd card to the /download folder as I've had issues seeing the card from the recovery app.
Booted into recovery - did a system, data and dalvik cache wipe. Installed the CM13 image and rebooted. The message I got was:
failed to mount '/system' (invalid argument)
failed to mount '/data' (no such device)
In an attempt to fix the mount issues I reflashed including a PIT. Now nothing is mounting - I'm guessing I've blown away the partitions.
I can get to the Clockwork recovery application but I can't flash from the SD card as it needs a file system to mount to I'm guessing.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to begin troubleshooting this?
If I try to reflash using ODIN, a PIT file and GB_Stock_Safe_v5.tar
ODIN zips through till it gets to:
<ID:0/004> factoryfs.rfs
At which point it seems to hang up.
eventually ODIN times out with a Fail message. If I reboot I get the soft brick logo of the mobile and PC with the yellow triangle. From this point I can reflash Clockwork Recovery Mod (CF-Root-TAB7_XX_OXA_JQ1-v3.3-CWM3RFS.tar) and get to the download screen again if need be.
I just don't seem to be able to get a working OS up.

A305G bootloop + damaged recovery

Hi, i need your help.
My Samsung Galaxy A30 (A305G) doesn't turn on. It stays in bootloop and if I try to boot into Recovery, it doesn't work. The device has the bootloader locked and it also doesn't let me flash any stock / official firmware.
When I boot into recovery, some letters appear at the bottom of the screen, which say the following:
#no data on recovery_cause#
#Reboot Recovery Cause is [UNKNOWN]#
Support SINGLE-SKU
Block-Based OTA
Supported API: 3
E: failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)
# MANUAL MODE v1.0.0 #
E: failed to mount /cache: Invalid argument
E: failed to mount /system_root: Invalid argument
E: failed to mount /cache: Invalid argument
E: failed to mount /cache: Invalid argument
E: failed to mount /cache: Invalid argument
': Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_locale
after that, it restarts, returns to recovery and repeats the same infinitely, a kind of bootloop but in recovery.

I tried flashing two stock ROMs (U4 and U5) and Combination firmware U4. Same error.
Thanks in advance.
