[Q] Tab won't boot up after flashing with Odin

Hi,
did a flash of the JM4 firmware (P1000DXJM4_P1000DXJM2_P1000OLBJM1) using Odin (v1.7). Flashing of the firmware works fine and the upload was completed. However, the GTab did not reset automatically (i saw that the screen went blank for a second and then once again the downloading screen is shown). After i unplug the USB and then manually rebooted it, it is stuck at the Samsumg screen and won't proceed further.
Is there something that i've done wrong? i've placed a check on the "re-partition", "auto-reboot" and "F. reset time" on the Odin.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Turn the tab OFF and reboot in recovery : Power button + Volume UP . It will finish loading the CSC files and it should then reboot fine.

Thanks.
Think i've screwed up my Tab big time. After recovery, it still doesn't show the CSC and the PDA version. What is shown is the Phone version which is "XXJMA". That's not going to work for me as i'm from Asia.
i'm going to try and flash it again.
In the meantime, anybody can think of anything to help me out, i'll greatly appreciate it.

From the look of that rom name......
Congratulation!! You are most likely have Protected Boot Loader and SBL now ^^
As I recall when I flash my second TAB with that firmware i have the same problem and I solved it by flashing Roto's JME (the one that format your SD card too).

Hi all,
i've managed to solve this problem by doing a few mix and matching. Currently my version (*#44336#) is showing:-
PDA1000DXJM4
Phone1000ZHJL1
CSC:Unknown
i see i don't have a CSC. Does it matter? Also, my reader hub is not working. Its giving me "Service Unavailable (4002)" (im sure i have internet connection, so connection problem is out).
Now the reason why i need to mix and match or update in the first place is this: my old version of JK2 firmware has a problem of not being able to connect to my exchange server using the native email client. So i did an upgrade using Odin. This somehow screwed up my versioning and everything else.
Thanks.

Need help for G530FZ revival

Hi people, have a strange problem here.
I got a G530FZ (one sim) from a friend for revival. His doughter used the phone for about a year(in Germany). So the problem is - the phone doesn't want to unlock anymore. It is locked with a pattern lock. The pattern is known and it works, but only for a second or two. I can see the homescreen, but cannot do any action. Every time I try with the right pattern, I get a message : "com.android.systemui" was stopped. For my feeling the phone is still locked. After this 1-2 second I see the pattern again. I checked if I really have the correct pattern and tried the wrong one. Result - "Wrong pattern" message.
Well, I tried to use the unlock pin(is also known), but I can't access this option. I tried to force the pin unlock through entering the wrong pattern again and again. Result - the phone restarts after second or third wrong pattern Also good to know - it restarts also after a couple of tries with the correct pattern.
All right, after I tried the easy way, I decided to just do a factory reset of the phone. But also with no sucsess. I rebooted to recovery and did "wipe data/factory reset" Result -- failure on formatting data and system.
Well, I decided to reflash the phone through ODIN, rebooted to "Download mode" and tried few different stock firmwares from samfirmware - FAIL. NAND WRITE START ends with FAIL everytime.
Then I tried to root(just to check), then to flash a custom recovery and so on -- FAIL. Everytime NAND WRITE START
What can I do with this problem? Everything I normally can do with my Galaxy S2-6 and it works - doesn't work with this G530FZ May be I'm dumb and the phone is firmware-locked and I need to unlock first before I can do anything with it?
So, again the key data for the phone:
SM-G530FZ one sim
KTU84P.G530FZXXU1AOA9
1 year old, but warranty rejected because of brocken glas(glas is brocken for 5 month and wasn't the trigger for problem above)
Recovery mode - reachable, but factory reset fails. ADB sideload WORKS, but I don't have an idea how to use it. I tried to use "ADB Run" programm, but if I try to dump something thru ADB - I get a fail message
USB Debugging is NOT on, and I can't activate this option with brocken unlock function
Download mode works, but ODIN fails on Nand write start (only tried with AP section). Tried 3.09, 3.10.7, 3.12.1
Unlock pattern known, but don't work
Unlock pin known, but I can't reach this option
Knox counter 0x0 - but nobody really cares about it. If your solution can help, but trigger the knox - you're welcome
What I didn't try:
I've found a engineer firmware for G530FZ with pit and so on. But It's a firmware fo g530FZ DUALSIM. Till now I was a bit scaried to try it. Do you think I could?
Thank you in advance for all help you can provide and sorry for my english. I can understand every answer in russian, german and english, so feel free to answer in your own language if your english is worse then mine

I tried four different versions from 3.09 till 3.12
The same problem for evry one version.

if you try to install TWRP and testing install rom deodex

Did i just brick my brand new A5 2016 ??!. Problem Solved

EDIT: Problem solved!!!
I used this tutorial: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...very-samsung-sm-a510f-fd-exynos7580-t3314399/ to install TWRP and root my SM-A510FD on 6.0.1 . My device was rooted and working perfectly until stupid me decided to turn off "OEM Unlock" and i restarted my phone and now it says "custom binary blocked by frp lock" The only thing i can do is go to the Download mode. I tried to use Samsung Kies and Smart Switch when in Download mode but they tell me that my device is not supported. But Odin detects my device and says "Added!!". I am currently downloading the stock firmware for my device from Sammobile and i plan to flash it using Odin.
- Will putting the firmware file in the AP section of odin and clicking start work to fix the problem? (I do not care if i will loose data)
- If this will not work is there anything else that i can do? I can't take it to repair because Knox is tripped and i do not have my receipt. If my phone is bricked forever please tell me so i don't waste my time trying to fix it.
Thank you so much in advance! Any help would be extremely appreciated!!

Just flash stock firmware and you are good to go, if it wont boot turn it off, reboot to recovery(stock) and wipe data & factory reset, later you can again flash twrp and root but dont turn off OEM unlock.

What about when my j7 says custom binary blocked by frp lock(boot.img) secure fail:kernel. It will boot into recovery, and download. Factory wipe does nothing, so recovery mode is useless to me at the moment. my computer detects the phone enough to say Unknown USB device (Device Descriptor Request Failed) driver error as the label of the phone. No matter what mode I'm in. Drivers are up to date, odins good, usb port, computer, and data cords are all good. I've flashed other phones and hooked this one up to another pc to see that it says the same thing. How do I get the computer and/or odin to agree with my phone enough to pick it up as a good device?

S7 Stuck in Bootload / Updating

Hi all,
since one day i´m totally wrecked up with my SM-G935F. On Monday morning the display was frozen. I looked in some forums and used odin to flugh the newest version (7) to the phone. After clearing the cache it worked quite well for about 3 hours then freezed again. Since that i´ve tried so many options, all leading to nothing ;( I´m quite sure that there must be a solution and hope for your help.
The actual status is:
The phone shows the Galaxy S7 Edge screen, then the "Installing system update". This crashed every time (no command) and then a black screen is shown with some information in the upper half:
No Support SINGLE-SKE
Supported API:3
# Manual Mode #
-- Appling Multi CSC --
Applied the CSC-code: DBT
Successfully applied multi-CSC
Successfully verify for dmverity hast tree
Sometimes after waiting it jumps to the "bootloader". The normal way with the volume up + power+ home is not working at the moment or i´m doing something wrong.
I´ve tried a few fixes:
-> downloaded the newest Firmware, an older version and the oldest one from sammobile and install via odin
Normal install in AP via Odin stuck an recovery.img​I renamed the file without md5, open it and extracted the files. From there i tried to single upload them (boot, system and recovery) It freezes at system...​
-> flash home file first with odin
it stucks on RQT Close and don´t finish​
-> install new firmware via SD Card
frp lock denied the installation. Get error: E: signature verification failed​
-> samsung smart switch and kies
both not working. I´m not even able to make the software initializing because it tells me that my phone (SM-G935F) is not supported... WTF....​
-> install CWM recovery via adb
I´ve tried to install an other revocery tool without success. I tried the ways via Odin and adb, both collapsing with the error of activated frp lock​
-> TWRP recovery via adb
Same like CWM. The Binary Upload is denied trough frp-lock​
-> Whipe cache from fastboot
I whiped the cache several times without anything changing​
-> factory reset from fastboot
It says that factory reset was successful but data could not be wiped. It also changes nothing....​
From my nooby perspective i would:
-> unlock the frp
-> install custom recovery
-> unlock signature validation
-> install via adb or sd card the newest Firmware
-> lucky guy
I´m really depressed/sad right now and have no idea what to do next. I spoke with samsung service and they told me to send them the phone so they can repair it. I hope that this is not ne final solution...
If there is any possibility to get the phone back to factory reset or any other working system i would be soo glad.
sorry for the bad english, it´s not my mother tongue
Thanks in advance and beste regards
Sebastian

LOL, didint read all but the part where the phone freeze after few hours on MM or even on clean Nougat firmware its a big sign that the problem is with hardware, just send the phone to Samsung so they could fix it and move on

I actually did. From my perspective there was no other way so i send it in. Really unhappy with this solution but i hope that Samsung Support will repair it. Maybe i was too naive with the android phone. i thought that i where able to totally delete and reinstall the system like i do with my computer. Now i will look for a good backup solution for the future ;D
Thanks in advance

I think you messed up your phone somehow... certain steps you described do worry me what you might have done.
Did you root/unlock your phone before? If yes, Samsung will happily return your S7 without even touching it.
Kies & Smart Switch do not work on rooted phones. Exception: Emergency Software Recovery and Initialization
Did you try flashing all four files (BL, AP, CP, CSC not HOME_CSC) in Odin at once? Did you try another PC / USB port?

ByPass FRP Samsung Galaxy S8 need help

Hello guys. I know there are many topics about this, but I need a help about my Samsung Galaxy S8 (normal one, not Plus or Edge) G950F.
I tryed many method and I saw many videos and guides, but still it doesnt work.
My Galaxy S8 is brand with Tim (Italy) so I dunno if this could create issues or not.
I downloaded Combination Firmware 8.0 but I always have the error "SW REV. CHECK FAIL (BOOTLOADER) DEVICE: 2, BINARY: 1" on Mobile and Fail on Odin... this just can mean that the Combination Firmware isnt the right one.
I downloaded the right 8.0 Tim Original Firmware and tryed with Odin. It pass and everything go well, but still ask me for the old Account Gmail to verify the Account etc even if Odin did good.
I guess that I need to use that Combination first and put USB Debug (as I'm seeing in many videos) but I can't put this Combination Firmware for the error I said above.
What can I do? What is the right Combination file for a Galaxy S8 8.0 Tim (Italy)? I can't now naither turn on the device because it says to me in loop "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC Software" in a green screen.
Thanks for any help you can give. I just want use back this mobile.

Did you tried to boot in download mode and then use smart switch ? Smart switch can recognize a phone when you boot at recovery. Then try to repair.
Concerning the combination this error mean that the combination file are too old. I had the same issue long time ago ( Device 2 Binary 1).
What mean the Google Gmail thing ? At boot they ask you the mail ? Why don't enter it then ?
Tell me if something worked. Try to find a newer "combination".

I can't enter the Account Verification because the one who used this phone wont tell me the email and psw for it (he was the partner of my mom, but now they fighted and my mom wanted back her's phone.. but now, for vengeance/spite he wont tell us his data). I knew about Combination was old but where can I find the newer one? I am surfing on internet and can't find the right one I tryed many). My Firmware code is 8.0.0/R16NW/G950FXXU2CRED so I need a Combination Firmware eligibile with that.
I cant access the Device to install Smart Switch etc.

You don't need to access to the device. Just download the Samsung utility on your computer and connect your phone thought the download mode.
The name of the Samsung thing is Samsung Kies or something like that. Search for it.
And actually I never saw a phone asking for account verification ... I can't really help if this method don't work.

Or, flash twrp. Obviously the warranty will trip. And then delete everything, also the system. Then install back the firmware through Odin

The combination firmware needs to match the current firmware of the phone. Example if you have CRC7 then you need combination firmware CRC7

Please help, can't find combination file for sm-g9500 for latest upgrades. Firmware G9500ZHU2CRE1
