Hi all,
Having an issue at the moment. I had originally flashed JG4, then JM5 onto my SGS (was originally Optus JF3), then decided to check out the Asia FW JH1, but when I try to flash back to JM5, Odin gets to the "dont remove download target" in the dialogue box and I'm left waiting...
After 30min +, nothing is happening... If I remove the phone, I get the connect phone to pc Icon on reboot.. I then have to reflash back to JH1 to get the phone working again......
Do I need to use a different PIT file, or is there something else I need to do.
Cheers for assistance in advance.

I got this error after using an update.zip for battery % icon, I get this error after the phone boots into the home screen and I cant really do anything on the phone. I went to recovery mode and did a factory reset and the cache wipe, still having the problem. I know this will be fixed If i reflash to another firmware but Id like to keep using the firmware that is official for my country/region w/c is the DXJG4 ( Philippines ) would it be possible if I flash my phone to a euro firmware and have kies revert it back to the original firmware for my country ??
This is the exact error message

Hi all,
I royally messed up my Galaxy Tab trying to install a framework-res.apk without reading the threads properly. Now I have a Tab which just reboots itself continuously at the Samsung screen after buzzing three times in quick succession.
Is it possible, seeing as I can still go into download mode, to reflash the tab using this guide and send the tab back to stock/brand new?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848422
The only problem is that I have no idea what the latest firmware for the UK Galaxy Tab would be that came over Kies. Can anyone help me with this? I basically need to know what the latest official "Kies-loaded" firmware is and to download it, then use the guide above to reflash my tab so it's back to standard.
TIA

JJ7 is the latest update through Kies I think for the UK, although JJ3 seems to be what most Tabs were supplied with in the UK.
If your Tab was purchased in Carphone Warehouse then it's latest official firmware will be JJ7, if you purchased it from Tesco or Phones 4u etc then it will be JJ3. As long as you haven't tried flashing any of the JM series ROMs you will be fine to flash either JJ3 or JJ7 onto your Tab with Odin or Hemidal.
Thanks for both of your inputs, I have downloaded and flashed JJ7, but for some reason when I do a *#1234#*, under versions I have nothing under PDA, under Phone it says P1000XXJK5 qand under CSC it's blank. I could have sworn that before my screw up, all three of these values had something in them. Any help?

Did you go into recovery after flashing and let it finish doing it's thing?
Turn your tab off, then hold down power+volume up, wait until it's finished updating the CSC and everything and then reboot.
If that doesn't work, then flash a different CSC and repeat the steps above.
You'll get the PDA and CSC entries as blank if either you didn't flash the CSC or you didn't go into the Recovery console immediately after the flash to allow the CSC to install.
Hi all,
Thanks again for all your help everyone. I followed all your advice and thanks to you guys I've managed to save my tab.
Thanks again
I got the phone last week, network lock on, as I got it on T-Mobile, hooked it up to my pc, with the latest Kies, I had 2.3.3 and got a notification for an official update. It got stuck at 3% and was bricked afterwards (phone to pc connection broken image).
Anyways got it into download mode, flashed official firmware from sammobile forum(samfirmware is down) I9001XXKF8 with XEN SCS and AriesVE.ops Odin 4.43
It got stuck after 7/12 ext4 smth..
Then, decided to try 2.3.5 firmware I9001XXKPJ, as it's a Provider firmware, mind you everywhere I read that you shouldn't flash a network locked phone(exception is a provider firmware), but I did anyways , finished in 6mins.
Phone works great, now I have 2.3.5 with what I think is a huge rom with XX languages, including Macedonian(Balkan countries)
I don't have the slightest idea how I got it unlocked.. somewhere I read the network lock is in the rom in i9001, so you can try this. A local phone shop asked for 30eur, so I'm spending that money on booze tonight
I'll add this link to a post as well as I banged my head around quite a lot, before figuring it out/ how to recovery mode http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17395735&postcount=19 thanks Riversource
can you please add some details?I did a flash with xxkpj but no luck my phone still locked. thanks...

as far as I know flashing a rom (after flashing any kind of them from samobile and xda) does not remove the sim lock. there should be a different method rather than flashing or buying the code
After reading a lot of posts on i9001 I read there are two kinds of network locks, and I guess I was lucky enough to only have had the ROM based lock.
try different provider firmwares/non provider firmwares.. (although non provider firmwares are not suggested anywhere for locked phones, I haven't encountered anyone with bricked phones doing this)
Check your imei.
If it is 000000... ore not the same like the one under your batterie then your imei file got corrupted.
Hi guys,
I'm having problems with KIES and ODIN updating my i9505 from 4.3 to 4.4.2 (Official Vodafone Spain)
Everytime I try to update via KIES 3 the USB connection seems to disappear when the updater finishes downloading those 1.6GB of data, it says something about losing connection between PC and terminal. Also, when I'm into download mode the grey letters say System Status Custom! I've never touched anything related to the firmware, having it branded and unflashed since I've bought it to not lose warranty.
Same thing with Odin 1.85 and 3.10, I've flashed my previous i9100 like ten times and I've had no problems back then. Now it says FAIL everytime and if I add the PIT file it autostops and fails again.
Dunno what to do now, as I want to flash the new OS to see if it fixes my dropping network problems (I've changed simcard before with no relief)?
TIA,
Hello, my SM-G935A is rooted, and I have 2 issues with it. Firstly, I'm unable to receive texts or phone calls (I can send them), and I've tried a factory reset and I even got a new SIM, but nothing worked. I think if I flash stock firmware, it might fix the issue. Second problem, when I go into download mode and select my AP in Odin and press start, my phone gets an error and Odin freezes at Initialization.
Any help would be appreciated. I would prefer to fix the texting issue, as I don't want to return the phone to ATT. In either case, the Odin issue needs to be fixed
I'm having a similar issue. This afternoon, 2 apps threw errors and closed. I rebooted, which apparently was the wrong thing to do. The reboot stalled on the AT&T logo and stayed that way for 5 min - the unit became very hot & the power button did not respond, even while holding it down. I got into recovery, cleared the cache and factory reset, then rebooted. The unit came back up and started reinstalling everything. I took it back down into the download status and attempted to reload 935x via Odin, only to stall at "initialzation" [sic] as you did. I got out of that after waiting for some sort of response. SuperSU was still in my apps as was Root Checker. Root Checker indicates the system is rooted. SuperSU indicates it needs the binary updated. BusyBox and TiBu indicate they cannot find root. I deleted all the root apps and tried reinstalling root via adb which completed successfully, but the same outcome with all the root apps. So I'm not sure if I'm still really rooted as Root Checker claims, or not.
EDIT: I just saw that I have 2 "Knox Settings" apps. Clicking on either returns, "Unfortunately, Container Agent2 has stopped."
use the odin from the stock firmware thread to flash it again. if it fails you can flash the u firmware and then the stock again. then you have to use a different odin if you want to flash the root api file the one you flash the firmware with wont work. also there is help in one of the threads about fixing the volte problem so you dont have to turn it off to get calls. i didnt have to do it as using the odin i mentioned fixed it for me when i came from the u firmware.

I was having the exact same problem you had with Odin. It seemed I was able to flash stock firmware using this version of Odin: http://www.mediafire.com/download/2t2sjqxtogbkafk/odin_3.12.3.rar

did you have any problems with the u version of the s7 edge firmware, like the fingerprint scanner not responding? i am on that version and cant get any odin version or any version of s7 edge g935a firmware to flash, tried unrooting and was forced to use the U version of the s7 edge firmware, everything works except the fingerprint scanner, cant get back to full stock firmware, need help!
im having the exact same problem, when i put my phone into download mode and flash the stock at&t firmware, Odin get stuck in "initialization" and my phone screen displays and error message.
Same stuff was happening to me, I went back to stock and took the update. When your phone stops working as an actual phone, it's time to roll it back.
I played with it for a week and my phone was so freaking hot (with hot weather) equals a wait and see if this gets more stable in the near future. I did use the Odin 3.12.3 mentioned by King James III. Honestly, I did so many things to get it back to stock I forget what actually worked (it was the wee hours of the morning and I was spent). Don't give up guys, it will and can work.
edit: It may be as simple as not right clicking Odin and running it as Administrator.

I used Odin_v3.12.3_Patched_SHA256 to flash the 935U Firmware then used Odin3_v3.11.2 to flash the June Firmware release.
