I have a Galaxy XCover II which I Rooted last year using the tutorial here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40232503&postcount=45
This morning I used the "integrate updates with System Apps" option in Titanium Pro and now it boots straight to a corrupted screen and goes no further. I can get into Odin mode, but reflashing the original rooted ROM doesn't seem to work - ODIN 3.07 says that it is completed, but nothing has changed.
I note that, when ODIN tests it, it reports "There is no PIT partition"
Help please!

Okay, So I was trying to flash stock rom (4.4.2) in Odin and It failed. IT left me with the error, SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 4 > Binary 1
I get this error every time I try to flash. And I tried to do an Emergency Software Recovery and it just fails after it downloads the Update. I am able to access Android Recovery and Download Mode Aswell. I think when I tried to factory reset I deleted The whole OS. I really hope I am not out a brand new phone. I already tried to flash like 3 different stock roms from different websites same error!
Phone was Not rooted.
No Custom Rom installed.
Android 5.1.1 Was installed before.
Also, I heard that some users have been able to flash the pit and fix this, How can I find my Pit File. Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900A
Hi,
I would appreciate assistance with my situation please.
My note 3 N900 was updated via Kies to its latest firmware (Android 5.1.1 if I'm correct). No rooting/installing/flashing of any rom or custom recovery had been done before this.
Following instructions. Using odin3 v3.10.6 I successfully flashed TWRP recovery (twrp-2.8.7.0-ha3g.img.tar from official site)
When trying to enter TWRP recovery holding volume up + home + power at the same time. A fallen android bot showed the message "no command"
I found a solution to over come that part. The solution I followed was to uncheck "auto root" in odin and after successfully flashing twrp recovery, remove the battery for about 5 or 10 seconds, re-insert the battery and boot into recovery.
It worked and I was in TWRP recovery.
I did a full wipe, cache/davlik/system/data etc (I have no files I wanted in the internal memory).
Then proceeded to install the custom rom from the external memory card (Dark-Au S6 V4 Final N900 from xda).
It said successfully installed, clicked reboot ... and it stayed stuck on the Samsung logo.
Re-did the whole process, this time after successfully installing the rom I did a cache/davlik wipe and rebooted ... still gets stuck on the logo.
Please help,
Thanks

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
Since there are so many variants, I wonder if the ROM matches the phone.
At any rate, I am connecting this thread to the forum your device experts can be found:

Please note, to respond to replies, you will need to have an XDA account.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
My gf forgot her unlock pattern and her backup password on her N9005. I tried doing firmware install through ODIN but it failed and now the phone is displaying "firmware upgrade encountered an issue". I downloaded the firmware form Sammobile and tried flashing it several times, but no success. Phone enters download mode only, i am unable to get into recovery.
The GALAXY Note 3 LTE (SM-N9005) firmware is the one i tried flashing but i also noticed that there's a SM-N9005 (GALAXY NOTE3) so, i'm downloading that one to try (seems like the same though). Was wondering if that could be the problem why it keeps failing in ODIN?
Can you guys enlighten me or assist me in getting the device back up and running please. Many thanks in advance.
update guys: progress
I ODIN-ed TWRP to the device so now i have access to files and can install root, then flash a custom rom to get the device up and running again. I will try an official firmware flash through ODIN when i get the device up again.
Hello. I've got a problem with my S4. I had Andoid 5.0.1 on my Galaxy S4. I bought a new phone so i installed CyanogenMOD on my S4 just to see how it works. When i noticed that battery drain is super high (it wouldnt survive one night of doing nothing) i wanted to install android 4.3 because it was my first android on this phone and from what i remember S4 worked best with this version. I downloaded firmware from sammobile and i didnt use original samsung cable. Something went wrong. It failed like 0,5 sec after i clicked start. I couldnt start my phone (it said that firmware upgrade encountered an issue). and from this moment i cant install any firmware. Im using original cable now. I downloaded like 10 firmwares already from 4.2.2 to 4.3, 4.4 and 5.0.1. different countries (including my original Germany Vodafone). I managed to install it once but it got stuck after Galaxy S4 text ("Samsung" showed up and it kept blinking and blinking.). From this time it always got stuck on system.img.ext4 but not always on 50% for example. Sometimes 10%, 25%, 90%. Used versions of Odin: 3.07, 3.08, Odin3_v3.11.1
Okay. So:
1. Got S4 with Android 5.0.1
2. Installed CyanogenMOD (13 i think)
3. Tried to install 4.3 with not original cable and failed.
4. Tried to install 5.0.1 with original cable. Installed it but it got stuck on Samsung logo.
5. Tried to install various versions of android. It always got stuck on system.img.ext4 in System section of flashing with Odin.
Is there any way to fix that? I know that may be very chaotic but i hope you understand. Thank you.
After flashing 5.01 with Odin, did you perform a factory wipe before booting 5.01 for the first time?
No, my Odin was set to reboot my phone automatically
Anybody?
Hi,
Just trying to add some things:
1) Untick Auto Reboot before flashing.
2) After stock firmware successfully flashed, reboot manually to recovery mode by Home+Power+Vol(+) buttons.
3) Wipe data/factory reset.
You're ready to go.
EDIT: My bad. Got no idea about stucking on system.img.ext4.

You tried using kies and smart switch to perform an emergency recovery?
When flashing system, it fails or it just stops there and never proceeds?
You confirmed that the model number in download mode matches rom you are flashing?
You tried flashing with a pit file?
Can you flash twrp and another custom rom?
Kies doesn't see my phone after just plugging it in and after clicking emergency recovery. Doesn't matter if its in Download mode or just turned on with "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue..." error. Smart Switch too. Smart Switch gives me an error that my device isn't compatible with this software.
When flashing system it just stops and never proceeds.
In download mode i see this:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-I9505
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1
CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x30
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
eMMC BURST MODE enabled
And yes, im installing rom for my model.
I will try flashing with pit file and try to flash twrp and another custom rom and let you know. I won't be able to do this today.
I tried to flash rom the normal way (Spanish version, i chose it randomly) and it flashed my device. I was stuck in Samsung logo once again (after wiping cache and all data) but after like 2-3 restarts the system started. I don't know what was causing the problems and why Spanish version worked but Germany didn't. Thank you for all your help.
Hey everyone!
I got a problem with a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7.
Android seems to be stuck into bootloop. When the tab is booting, I only got "Samsung" on the screen and nothing more.
I tried to f.reset the tab using recovery mod. I firstly tried to wipe cache, then wipe all (data/cache), but this did not work.
So, I downloaded and installed last Samsung drivers.
Then I downloaded Odin (last version) and an official firmware from SamMobile.
But...
Odin correcty detect the tab but when I the flash process start I immediatly see a "fail!" message.
Could you help me please?
Thanks!
