Stuck in recovery, reactivation lock is on and ODIN is failing. - Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've read that I need to re-partition but I can not find the correct PIT file for my device (specifically, SM-T337A). If this is in fact what I need to do, any assistance in locating the correct PIT file would be greatly appreciated! If this is NOT what I need to do, any assistance in figuring out what IS the correct course of action is also greatly appreciated! What initially happened was I attempted to root while on 5.1.1, which I've read you can't do (clearly) so now it only boots into recovery. When I try flashing with ODIN, ODIN fails and my device says "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 2 > Binary 1".
Again, thank you in advance for any help!

did you ever find a fix for this, i have done the same thing?

No fix yet
Nope, it has been a paperweight for a while now :/

well i've got good news for you then, got it running. download the OTA 5.1.1 update and write it to a SD card then run the update from external memory in the updater...
so download the zip file and put it on a micro.sd then put the sd in your T337A and when updater starts click down to install from external memory and select the file. it take a few minutes to start working so just let it sit. (link to the download below remove spaces), if for some reason you can't download it i have the file.

Yes!!
Thanks man!!! I'm headed to work but I will definitely do this tonight!!!!

IT WORKED!!!!
Thank you so much!!!!

i did what you said and it didnt work.i put the file in my sd card and it look like it was gonna work then it reboots back to the system software not authorized by at&t...do you have another update file? i tried odin and it fails every time.so im hoping this will work... plz help me

more info
i think its because im still rooted....but how am i gonna unroot if odin fails? is there anyway to unroot from sd card? and im boot looped so i cant download apps on my sm-T337A..plz help

Please someone have pit file for t337a

If you guys were on 5.1.1 you need the LP(boot.fix). If your on the unauthorized screen boot into download mode. Open odin and flash LP(boot.zip) do not extract zip just flash in PDA slot. Now im going to post the link for it through Mega. For those that do not know what Mega is its an app from the playstore. The last time I posted a guy said this method seemed fishy because he was new to flashing and had no idea that Mega is a cloud sharing app thats free. This fix is not my work ALL CREDIT GOES TO Cocafoca.

Yeah try to use the Verizon Repair assistant on your pc. Another one to try is Kies 3 which you can download to your pc and run.
Pull the battery and then put in back in and hold down power+home+volume down. Once in custom screen press volume up.
If you can do this your okay.
You can use Verizon Repair assistant, Kies 3 or the latest version of Odin and download the tar file for the version you were on.

You stuff was awesome, however, it is not that the programs do not work, it is the fact that my pc, under no circumstances will recognize my phone when plugged into these programs, or even recognize it as a device after the drivers are in. The note literally has to be up and running for it to be recognized.
Thanks

From the looks of your photo your warranty is still good. You are stuck in download (odin) mode. The Knox warranty void line shows 0x0 witch is still good. When the line says 0x1 your warranty is toast. I have the identical screen when I enter download mode and my phone is bone stock. I haven't tried root yet because Verizon has allowed disabling and stopping most of the bloat apps. Also I do not want to trip Knox. Have you tried holding down the power button until it reboots? As for the note having to be fully powered up to be recognized is not so. When you enter download mode is when you connect your usb. I would try a different usb port or a standard usb 2.0 Motorola cable if you have one. Either way your warranty is not toast.

Your advice is truly appreciated, but i think my computer hates my note. I have tried every port, all the drivers are on the machine, and I still do not get recognized. When the phone was working, it had no problem getting recognized, now, all of a sudden....poof
Yea same screen most of us have or had. You need to install ODIN connect to PC and run ODIN it should tell you if it reads it when "ID:COM" shows "0:[COM4]" or any other number. If it does show "0:[COM4]" you are good flash a stock image of the version you were on before attempting root (MI9, MJ7, or MJE).

Below are the screens I get, I tried flashing the delavega root before, and of course got the error shown. I am now downloading the stock tar file, mje, and try to flash it with odin when done downloading.
Is odin showing the com box the correct way, or should it be another color and say something else?
Thanks.

How about entering recovery mode (home+vol up+ power on) and clearing cache and or factory reset. Clearing cache worked on my old S3 with a similar issue.

[Q] Sprint LG G2 Bricked by Custom Recovery

Sorry to bother everyone, but I am in a really sticky situation here. I don't know much about rooting and recovery, and have run into a real issue, so I will try to explain as best I can. I rooted my phone no problem and installed a custom recovery that didn't work at all, so I left it and forgot about it. Today, I tried to update my phone but when it rebooted I simply got the message: [830] Fastboot mode started then below it says: [830]udc_start() and will not advance. I cannot do anything with the phone when I plug it in nor can I access any of the files aw it doesn't seem to be recognized, and when I boot into recovery I just get the screen with the same message. I tried putting it into download mode, but it just said 0% and no messages about drivers or anything popped up onto my screen. I am in a real pinch here fellas, and I really hope you guys can help me out. Thank you all in advance.

Thank you everyone, the issue was fixed! After verifying the files, looks like I picked up the wrong TOT file. Had so many of them downloaded over trying to fix this I confused them . Thank you for all of the help, I truly appreciate it. I'm not sure if I am supposed to close the thread or if a moderator will do it or what the protocol is, but consider the issue resolved .

Your welcome.. Sorry I didn't have time to help better yesterday... Fixing bricked phones is my thing lol

I made a mistake. Did it cost me my phone?

Hi all,
So i just got a new S5 in the mail today and right away i got set to rooting it. I downgraded to NCG build, installed busybox, superuser,and safestrap recovery, and began flashing a new rom in rom slot one, separate from the stock slot. My error came when i flashed a rom and kernel and firmware for a BOG5 build, and i didnt odin the tar file for BOG5, which puts me here, with a phone that powers on (what i mean is the screen turns on and can enter DL mode), is recognized in device manager as a samsung composite device, but is not read by ODIN (its like the com port isnt even there), and cannot boot into safe strap as it instantly gets hung up at "Samsung Galaxy S5, Powered by android".
Please, help me.
I have no idea how you can get into download mode and not have it work. If the download mode screen is there, it's working (?)
---------- Post added at 11:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 PM ----------
BTW, you can't use ROM slots with Lollipop.
---------- Post added at 11:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 PM ----------
My guess is that you do not have the required samsung USB drivers installed. You can't just install ODIN, you have to also install http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2038555
The com port doesnt even show up on odin. I tried both 3.10 and 3.09. It sucks! And thats good to know, probably contributed to the reason it fails to boot. I definitely have the correct drivers because odin worked for me to downgrade to NCG.
try downloading flashfire and flashing it that way maybe?
I cant use flashfire because i cant boot my phone up to open the app
I cant use flashfire because i cant boot my phone to download/install let alone run the app.
hmmm did you try turning it off and on?
A bunch of times. The only way to do it is pulling the battery.
If it's booting to download mode, then it _is_ working. Are you sure you have odin set up properly?
Yeah, positive. It's worked for me right up until I misflashed this rom. Now it isn't even being detected by odin.
Are you opening Odin and then connecting the USB to the phone when it is in DL mode? Seen issues when having it all connected and then opening ODIN.. just a random idea..

Did you have root when you tried the side load. You have to be stock PK1 to sideload nougat. You can't have root. And also nougat is unrootable as of right now.
Now I'm back on PK1 using what dirtydodge provided me with. When I try to load the provided QA6 I receive E:Error in /sideload/package.zip (Status 7)

I'm not sure what that error is. Are you using "update from adb" or "update from sd card" I'll see if i can pull the md5 off the file so you can check to make sure it was a good dl.

Oh OK. I didn't try the adb method. I'm not that good with commands. I chose the update from sd method. Here is the md5 though from the zip that i downloaded from my mega box.

Oh OK. I didn't try the adb method. I'm not that good with commands. I chose the update from sd method. Here is the md5 though from the zip that i downloaded from my mega box.

I'm not sure what's going on then if it don't work. Have you tried using a different sd card. Might have a small glitch in the one your using. Just a thought

I don't think the name if the zip matters, just as long as there are no spaces in it.
I must have been doing something wrong... I took a walk smoked a bowl and now I'm installing Noguat..
Thank you dirtydodge!

If you're really stuck, the best way to get it working again is connecting the phone in download mode to a PC/Mac and restore it with Smart Switch, so you don't risk downloading a wrong/corrupted image for Odin

PLEASE, BEFORE POSTING THIS KIND OF ANSWERS HERE, READ THE QUESTION THREE TIMES AND USE YOUR BRAIN, OR YOU'LL ONLY CAUSE DAMAGES.
What I see there is a .tar image for J530, not J500 (J530 is 2017 model, J500 is 2015). He wants to get the phone working again, not completely bricked because he flashed an image for another device.
