Odin Fails at MODEM.bin - How to fix it.

So I finally decided to flash firmware 4.1.2 on my G.Cam (AT&T). I downloaded the firmware from SamMobile and started flashing through ODIN but it got stuck on Modem.Bin and failed. I tried several other firmware and all of them failed on Modem.bin
When I tried to turn on my camera a screen with "Error on Upgrading, try Recovery with Kies" came out. I must admit I panicked so I searched all the forums here on XDA and the same thing happen to somebody on their Galaxy Tab 10.1 The solution for them and for me was to root through Odin.
Like magic, it worked. I flashed through odin the CF-Auto-Root Adam have us on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995245
And after that my camera boot once again and now I have Android 4.1.2
I'm happy everything turned out ok, so I that's way I'm sharing this so that other users that have the same problem as me can know what to do (this should be a sticky).
Happy Flashing.

Saved me too! Thanks!

My GC stuck on boot screen and continually reboot on Chainfire SU. I tried to re flash CF Auto Root from Adam by ODIN but still the same. How can i do? Please kindly advice.

Flash fail with Odin for Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000
Hi,
I'm trying to flash another firmware for my GIalaxy Note 10.1 N8000. I have read all tutorials etc. and prepared all according to it.
I was able to succesfully root to Clockwork Recovery so i though flashing another firmware to turn the Note into a European one instead of Chinese would be easy too. WRONG!!
Every time i want to flash with Odin it fails in the beginning of the process, see below:
Is there anyone who could comment me on what to do? I was able to recover from the failed flash attempt but i really want to flash another firmware from Europe for this Chinese version.

You need to be posting this in the Galaxy Note 10.1 N80xx Q&A forum. This one is for the Galaxy camera!
However, make sure you don't have Kies running. I turn it off completely using Microsoft's autoruns program. Good luck.

Hi i already moved this topic to the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A section.
However i just installed the USB drivers only, never used KIES on my pc before at all so this should not be the reason.
I tried two different Firmwares already both flash in a different sequence but both fail at modem.bin. I have no idea why.
Please if anyone has some idea please comment on this topic under the Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A section of this forum, i moved this to there.
Thanks a lot.
Dave

This is the newest post that closed to the issue I get that I could find on Google. So I also got this problem that odin seems to stops (it just never finish) at modem.bin.

I am trying to root my Samsung note 10+ and here is the whole process:
I used SamFirm (v0.5.0) to download firmware (Model SM-N975F, region: SIN, auto), extract it.
Then I used Magish manager to patch AP... file from extracted folder, then copy it back to the extract folder on the computer.
Then use Odin (tried both v3.13.3 and v3.14.1, same results) to flash the files to the phone.
(I following this tut: https://www.thecustomdroid.com/root-samsung-galaxy-note-10-plus-magisk/)
However when I tried for note 10+ I got this issue.
If I load AP file by the original AP file from extracted folder above, then I can flash it to PASS! and recover the phone to fresh state.
The strange thing is I have done similar process and success for my note 10.
Is there anything else I can try here ?

[Q] Try to go back in 4.2.2 but Odin Fail !

Hi,
I have a problem with my GS4.
I try the last I9505XXUEMJ5_I9505OXAEMJ5_I9505XXUEMJ5_HOME.tar rom but like any other rom with new locked bootloader, i can't use the stock kernel because with it, all my apps crash on startup, with many many error messages.
But there is no custom kernel actually.
So i want to go back to 4.2.2.
But Odin fail every time i try to flash the I9505XXUDMH8_I9505OXXDMHA_I9505XXUDMH8_HOME.tar rom.

By any ideas dont you have the famous KNOX on Your rom actually? It must be due to that i think.
Why do you want to Côme back in 4.2.2?
Ans Yes there us at least One custom kernel who match with the 4.3
Ktoonz kernel.
Go see on the tread of the développe or see the amazing Echoes rom ! It incluses inside! I am on actually ans lever disappointed ! In wlrst case ylu can ask to Friedrich for help.
Avoir to flash a rom stock if you can because this lne will have for dure the new bootloader ans KNOX (protection impossible to downgrade One you got it).
Édit: by the way tel me you have the 9505 version LF the s4? As me? I am on Echoes rom (best bases on Touchwizz) ans i have flash chère is a little time the MJ5 ni problème at all.BUT never flash the stock rom 4.3...si i have not KNOX.
I know that the Echoes rom dont have KNOX either .They have removed it^^
Ans it worked perfectly. I am on the version 5 actually MJ5 firmwire and MJ5 for MoDem (flash wirh Odin mobile for the 1st time no need to pc^^)

Hi, I'm like the same problem .. I'll have to try to go back to 4.3 ROM ?? Mine is LTE!

Not possible back to any stock 4.2.2

Please have a look on fail picture then u will see odin3 fails on aboot.mbn. So, if you want to downgrade your phone You have to remove aboot.mbn from the firmware. But KNOX will set to 0x1 byitself.

BOOT LOOP/Odin Fail - Has anyone ran into this problem (stated below) with odin while trying to return to stock firmware?

The firmware may be failing when flashing aboot.mbn because of the following:
need to use a different USB cable;
need to use a different USB port;
the firmware file is not meant for the phone; or
the bootloader in the firmware is older than the bootloader in the phone.

[Q] [GT-I9500] Cannot reinstall official ROM

Hello,
I've baught a S4 GT-I9500 some months ago.
I used Omega v8 (4.2.2) and I manged ONCE to install an official 4.3 (india, from sammobile). Then back to Omega.
Now, I really want to go back to official 4.3 or 4.2.2, but it fails via Odin (tried 1.85, 3.04 3.07 3.09 and multiple CWM recovery).

Thank you,

1. Try other USB port in ur pc and repeat the process
2. Close completely Kies before start to flash (take a look in your taskbar and task manager too)
3. You cant flash a 4.2.2 firmware if your bootloader was updated for accident flashing a firmware with android 4.3. You will have to flash one firmware with android 4.3 again
4. Good luck

Note 4 SM-N910W8 - Help

Hi
So I got this note from a seller online. The seller was forth coming in letting me know of the problem with the phone. It was stuck ultra-saving mode and the person didn’t know how to get it out of it, hence I got a good deal to tinker with.
NOW, I am stuck. As you can see from the pics below I am trying to flash it with kies. However, its unable to write.
There was an instance where download screen was telling me that I was missing PIT file, and now its just unable to write to system………

Any help will be highly appreciated.
I tried flashing TWRP, but after brute forcing it via odin, it shows “Pass” but when I try to boot into recovery, again it displays that unable to write…….so I cant even flash a stock rom.
Model # SM-N910W8
Thanks.

Flash the full recovery firmware.
Reporting via N910G.

@yashthemw, Could you please direct me to the recovery .tar for my model..... Model # SM-N910W8 - Canadian version.
Can i use any model's recovery? N910F/C/T?
Really appreciate it.
Could you also please clarify the PIT partition message i got:
Should i flash .pit file first with a recovery image (via odin) OR do flash pit first and then flash recovery.
Thanks again.

your best bet would be to google "how to flash a galaxy note 4" from there take your time you"ll see anything you need....its not that hard at the end.....your phone only need a brand new flash!!

Hey guys, so i did do a re-flash

Solved!
Hi guys,
So after weeks of reading up on possible solutions, I got the N4 to work.
Here are the steps to try out, this is for the SM-N910W8 model, but you can find the pit files and your specific files online or from the links I post.
You will need 3 things;
1) Odin – I used the 3.09 version.
http://odindownload.com/Samsung-Odin/#.WCvgpeYrKMo
2) Pit file: http://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30022
Search your model, for me it was the SM-N910W8.
3) Download the latest firmware from online - http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Try to get the original carrier brand you have but I used a unknown one.
(on a side note, this step will take 2 hours, at-least for me it did. Damn you regular download)
2016-05-30 Unknown 6.0.1 N910W8VLU1DPE2 N910W8OYA1DPE2
Steps:
I loaded up the pit file, and the AP file extracted from the firmware on ODIN.
NOW MAKE SURE – IMP – when you load the files on ODIN have the following boxes ticked off!!
 Auto-Reboot
 Re-Partition
 F. Reset Time
Make sure your device is in Download mode and plugged in the PC as well as recognized by ODIN with a COM ID.
Press START and cross your fingers and legs and whatever you can find.
Hopefully, it went smooth and worked out.
All credits goes to the contributors in XDA and Sammobile and various other forums for providing insights and technical knowledge. You have to do your reading and above all be patient and something will work out………….

Hey there, I'm getting the following error: "Device does not have DRK, (Device Root Key), ...." please install DRK etc... (sorry, didn't get the rest of error msg, got distracted by wife)
I was hoping your solution would fix my problem but it didn't.
I did however find the files I needed on various sites but these bastards are all charging for it. Any ideas where I can find these files for free or if you know of an alternate solution?

Custom binary blocked by FRP lock. Can't get into download mode.

Hi.
Today I encountered a brand new problem with one of my phones. After a few restarts (problem with battery) phone started to boot in safe mode.
I couldn't set it back to normal, meanwhile I disabled Developer Options - this is probably where I made mistake (OEM Unlock turned off?).
After this, phone doesn't boot. There is little notification (Custom binary blocked by FRP lock) and then phone restarts.
I can't get into recovery mode (TWRP gone?) and even Download mode doesn't seem to work (after pressing Vol+ phone restarts again).
Visual representation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4wLcckvtnQ
Any of you encountered this problem already? Any solution?

I did absolutely nothing, but I can boot into download mode now. So my problem finally remains something I can find on the web.
I tried to flash TWRP once again (to backup data), but I'm getting error.

So - what to do now? What is the best possible scenario? What I understand all I have to do is to unlock OEM.
Can I save data on phone somehow? If not - what I should do next? I already downloaded stock firmware, but I'm waiting for your response just in case there is something I can do.

If you downloaded the corret firmware installed the correct samsung drivers on your pc then just follow the instruction on any thread on flashing stock ROMS. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT FIRMWARE.

Yeah, I know a thing or two about flashing ROMs and solved multiple problems already, that was something new. I never stuck before without access to DM.
Anyway, the problem is solved. I decided to sacrifice my data and flash stock rom to unlock OEM.

i have done all,so how i will repare it
