[Q] S4 not starting,please help me out!

Hey guys,please help me out.Today while Rooting International Galaxy S4 with CF-Auto-Root via odin,the odin encountered a problem and ended eventually interrupting the Root process.when I turn on the phone it says ''Firmware Upgrade encountered a problem.Use Kies to recover it.''
So i downloaded the official Jellybean 4.2.2.When I started installing this firmware via odin,its always getting stuck at Setup connection and eventually says Failed.This is happening again and again.I tried using different USB ports and using different PC,but still no success.
Please help me out guys,please.

Option 1, Make sure no Kies is running in the background and try flashing using odin 3.07/04
Option 2, uninstall kies restart the system and re do the process of updating the firmware / try diffrnt ports and cable if possible
Option 3, If this does not work try latest firmware that should work

When i go to tools and select the option Firmware upgrade and initialization , message pops up with text " Model name: GALAXY Note3(SM-N9005) , GALAXY NOTE 3 (SM-N9005) does not support initializing. "

Use odin to update. Download your rom from sammobile. You don't need root for that.

S6 Edge (SM-G295I) Bricked

Hello, I have a galaxy s6 edge (SM-G925I) and when a friend gave me the phone you could enter to the OS with the issue that there was no IMEI registered. So I said let me check it out. So when i checked i've noted that if I started in download mode, i would get binary and system as custom, so I downloaded stock rom from samm G925I_G925IDVU1AOD1_G925IXSA1AOD1_XSA because another friend has the same phone from the same company and that is the firmware he has. So l tried using Kies 3 and Smart Switch the recovery with no solution. When download finished... I tried to install using odin 3.10.6 and fail everytime, and when i turn on the phone its stucked in the Samsung logo.
Any idea to save it?
Thanks in advance:cyclops:

You can't use Kies you have to use Odin to get it back to stock.

[URGENT!] How do i get out of this situation with my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge i have?

First I rooted my phone a couple days ago and I came upon this problem with the my phone when I decided i didn't want to have it rooted anymore so... i tried to unroot the Samsung Galaxy s7 Edge using odin3 and when i did. The bar said it failed. Next I shut it down by using the power button and i saw a blue screen saying "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software.". Then i went to install Smart Switch PC software and when i got to the part where you had to press okay after putting the serial number and model number in. The program would always crash and it didn't leave any error message. I then tried Samsung Keis but that didn't work as well. I got an error message saying "Please check the model name and enter it". So now i am stuck with the blue screen. Any solutions in which i can solve this please?

Since you are in a rush, have you tried to Odin flash the Samsung Official stock S7 / S7 Edge firmware yet?
That would be the fastest and surest way to get your phone up and running properly in less than 20 minutes.
Trying to get your phone up and running properly any other way would take a lot longer and most likely you
would end up odin flashing the official stock firmware in any case.
You can find the proper official stock firmware for your phone's model at http://sammobile.com or
you can download the stock official firmware from this fast direct download link: http://tinyurl.com/ht62lko
Good luck, have a great day!

When Smart Switch or Kies ask for the model number, always make sure you enter 'SM-' before the model Eg, SM-G935F

I've found myself in the above situation when messing with CSCs, the fastest solution is to keep an Odin package always on hand ready to flash whenever you screw up, I've never trusted the sketchy Samsung software.

Can't Update or Flash Firmware to Galaxy S8

I have a Galaxy S8 SM-G950U on Verizon.
​In March I flashed my phone with the following ROM so I could get the S9 messanger,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/development/rom-pixelish-s9-rom-custom-snapdragon-s8-t3766891
Everything worked for a few months, including system updates. But as of roughly two months ago I am unable to install any system updates, they always fail. The rest of the phone works fine, its just the updates.
​I have tried to use Smart Switch to install the update through my PC, but the process would freeze after downloading the update. The same happened when I tried emergency software recovery through Smart Switch.
I also tried using Verizon's software update utility to both update and recover the phone, but the program would freeze just like Smart Switch.
I have also tried flashing both stock firmware and re-flashing the ROM to the phone with no success. I have tried flashing with the following 4 versions of Odin:
- Odin3-v3.12-PrinceComsy-
- Modded Odin v3.13.1 Raymonf
- Odin3 v3.13.1_3B_PatcheD
- Odin3_v3.12.3
​No matter what version I tried, Odin would either outright fail or freeze at either "SetupConnection" or "Intializing". I tried plugging my phone into both USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports. I was very careful to get the correct stock firmware for my phone. I downloaded the stock firmware from both sammobile.com and samsung-firmware.org
​I also tried simply restting the phone to factory setting both from inside Android and from Recovery Mode.
​Does anybody have any clue what might be causing this and what I can do to fix it?
I really dont want to be stuck with a phone that can't get updates.
