Stock Indian firmware help. - Galaxy Tab General

Hi,
Am a new b to Android and hope i am not sounding stupid with the following.
I am in India but had got myself an Arab ver Tab. I was not very happy with the OS version and the apps that came with it. Did some research and tried to load the Indian version. Used samfirmware site for this. Unfortunately i think i made some mistake, and the Tab went into the welcome logo loop with vibration.
After some trial and error, i managed to revive the tab, but it was a mix and match of files which got it working. All stock firmware files from the samsung firmware site.
Now it is showing:
Firmware ver: 2.2
Baseband ver: P1000DDJJ1
Kernel ver: 2.6.32.9
[email protected] #2
Build no: FROYO.DDJJ5
Only issue is that when i connect to Kie thingie, it says this ver of software cannot be upgraded.
I plan to gift this to my dad and would like to install the latest firmware for India, which can be updated automatically using Kie. Would appreciate help wrt to site or thread where i can get this done please. (Step by step instruction ideally, since am new to this.)
Thanks in advance.

Managed to get back to P1000DDJJ5 with GT-P1000-CSC-MULTI-OXXJK2 by following steps mentioned here
But am still getting the message that this firmware cant be updated in Kies. Does that mean auto updates are ruled out? Any work around?
Love the DDJJ5 though, has Live Tv and many more aps

SM-N9005 Kitkat 4.4.3 failed

After updating my phone to the new firmware N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_XEO.zip my phone failed to flash using Odin. I have tried so many version of Odin and still no luck, i have basically downloaded every rom that i can find from samsung-updates.com and still no luck. Let me know if you guys have a for fix for this because as of right now i can boot into Odin Mode but when i try to flash it via Odin 3.09 on any Rom it will fail. And yes i have tried every Samsung Kies version to try initialize this phone but it just does not work. i have attached the image of my S/N and Model this is one of the HK version and yes i tried the HK TGY rom and still no luck.

Well if you can still get into download mode you are still safe.
Does it fail mid flash or can´t even recognize your phone?
Reboot your pc and try again.
It will fail on the ABOOT, and i have tried to reboot my pc and still no luck i have attached my model of the phone

Try this guide. It seems to be the same phone as yours.
If you are trying to go back to 4.3 from 4.4.2 then it won't be possible. You will now have to stay in KitKat only and wait for more ROM for KitKat.

Did you try flashing with update bootloader ticked? If you tried that already then I think you are going to have to wait for the hk version of kit Kat for your phone to work again.
Or try this..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=null

Hmm.
Weird.
Do you know how to use heimdall?
Use it to have a look at your pit file and compare it to the one in the CSC zip. See what all is different.
Or just post your pit here.
EDIT: Just noticed that you have a 16GB version. I don't know how to help you there, man. You need a completely different pit file. One that is designed for 16GB. But since that model was only launched in Hong Kong, I don't think you will find one from outside, unless somebody can make one specifically for you. I have been trying to learn to do that, but as of yet, I can't.
Without a proper pit file, your only options are either wait for the Hong Kong Kitkat version or try installing the Sweet ROM.

Well thats an issue because im not sure if this my right PIT FILE for this phone. Because usually it will go smoothly for these manual updates using Odin and this is my first encountering this error. And my fault i didnt backup my ROM which i should have done first before getting excited with this KitKat for my Note 3. That CSC file i got that from this site http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2613374 and just followed instructions on how to do it, but it will just give me that error when i try to apply that method. But here's the PIT file that i got from that download.
I think its on a wrong region because i got that leaked update here http://www.sammobile.com/2014/01/13...kitkat-rolling-out-to-galaxy-note-3-sm-n9005/ and it looks like from Poland? does that matter? because my Note 3 is and HK version?
I have done so many phones rooted them and install custom roms this is the first time it failed on me. And funny thing is its my own cell phone lol

You gave me the pit file from the zip. I was asking for the one from your phone.
But anyway I found one for the 16GB version somehwere. I am taking a look at it. Will try editing it to fit your needs. Give me a little while.
And yes, it matters, because the pit file determines the sizes of the various partitions. Since yours is a 16GB version, the pit from a 32GB won't work.

Try flashing this tar file. Put it in the CSC part of the Odin.
Though I can't guarantee anything. First time, I am doing anything like this.

Odin just crashed on me while it was on SET PARTITION

can't boot phone

Hi, I started a thread needing help with my wifi but it has developed into not even being able to boot at all; it stops at the galaxy logo and either freezes or keeps booting. I have gone to the Odin page with all the different things to do and flashed the file to get back to the original rom but that is really where the trouble began. right now the only thing I can do with my phone is get into download mode, I can't even get into recovery. I have flashed a pit file that worked the first time but I don't know if that is part of the problem or not. Can someone please give me some directions, thanks
Also the phone won't boot at all unless hooked up to a power supply, the battery alone doesn't do anything.

More info is needed. What firmware / bootloader are you on? Was it rooted? Did you have a custom recovery installed? What version of ODIN are you using?

Right now, it sounds like you might need to use enewman17's ODIN debrick file.

It is the AT&T s4. To be honest I don't know what firmware I am on, it is the one the Odin page said to use if you want to go back to stock. I never rooted it. The bootloader would be whatever the latest update was for this phone. I can't get into it to tell you anymore. I am using ODIN 10, the latest one. thanks
Well I finally got into recovery and did a factory reset, now it boots into the AT&T white splash screen before it just turns off. I am also wondering if my battery just died for some reason?

ODIN 10? Try using ODIN 3.09 and see if that helps. The latest update would be Android 4.4.4 NJ4 firmware. This link should help you, it will give you root with safe strap recovery though: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/guide-odin-to-stock-updating-rooting-t2926642

Check out the link I posted in my last post. It should help you get your phone fixed.
I have been there. I went to the very last option which seems to be what I need unless I am missing something.
Neither odin 3.09 or 3.10 will even flash any file now. it either says invalid md5 or fails when it attempts it.
Well, I finally got it to boot into android but it is flaky at best. It is android 4.3 instead of 4.4 where it was initially. The wifi still doesn't work and now the keyboard keeps crashing everytime I do something. The build is jss15j1337ucuemk2 which I know is older than I had before. Does this give anyone a better idea of what I need to do? If I can get a stable flash then can I flash a modem file to fix the wifi? I really need some direction, thanks
Turns out the battery was completely drained which was causing some of the boot problems, I don't now how that happened but I am charging it now.
Well after using odin 3.8* I got it to install some older firmware ending in mk2 rather than the nc1 or nf4 that I had before the trouble. After I got it to boot, I went back into download mode and flashed the modem file and now everything works execpt I had to force stop Samsung keyboard and use swype. I would like to upgrade my firmware but since for a couple of more weeks it won't have a sim card I can't upgrade OTA. For some reason Kies says that firmware upgrade and initialization isn't supported with this model which makes no sense to me. It also says my firmware is up to date
Does anyone know how to flash to the latest firmware without me going through this nightmare again? thanks

I agree. But google has basically all he needs. More so rapidgator
I haven't found anything from Samsung to download. If I flash a newer build, do I also need to flash a modem file and a bootloader or can I just flash the PDA? thanks for explaining this to me.
And can I do a dirty flash so I don't have to lose everything again?
well, now I see that there is no sound. so I guess I will have to flash again.

There's. Something I'm yet to understand. Did you finally manage to boot into recovery? If so, flash a custom recovery (I recommend philz touch recovery) then use it to make complete wipe.
Then boot into download mode and flash latest pda firmware in the compressed file you downloaded. Ps: make sure it's from your region.
May be if you provided me with your region I'd get you all the files required

Help please

That shouldn't have failed, CSC mismatch is not a cause of flash failure. Can you provide more details?
Hm...
Hi guys,
I had an issue similar to this and have no recollection what I did to fix it. I don't even think that I fixed it, ever. Meaning - no stock ROM install for me for months and months now.
I just downloaded some AOSP/TW ROM and flashed. Are you able to get to the custom recovery? Please confirm - I've read somewhere that you can flash stock from custom recovery. I did try a few "PIT" files, with no help.
P.S. I remembered a bit now. I was finally able to flash it through Odin, but entered boot loop. So, no go!
My eyes are on this thread.
Good luck,
Sonny B.

If it was a pass message on odin it shouldve worked go into recovery mode and do a factory reset from there it should work it happened with me too but remember dont leave the phone switched on as its stuck in boot loop cause when the powers dead ur phone wont charge any more it would keep thinking as if its not bieng charged if thats what u did i recommend making a factory cable search it on google and charge from that so the device knows its bieng charged once the wipe data is done reset and hopefully it would work if not i think u should flash another stock rom again i hope i helped

(Problem) SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 2. Binary: 1.

Hello guys!
I have a big problem with my S7 edge (G935F)... The problem begins when I forget to turn off the OEM security and then I did an update to my Magisk root... When I tried to reboot my phone it doesn't pass of the first logo image, meaning that I broke the "security", so I read about that and then I flashed a firmware, an official UK (BTU I guess) firmware and then I flashed TWRP via Odin to restore a nandroid that I did when I bought my phone... It restored the EFS partition/folder and when my phone reboots I had no network signal, no IMEI... I just tried everything (I hope not) and I can't give back my IMEI and my network signal... When I try to patch the certificate to recover my IMEI via Odin in the download mode it says: SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE:2. Binary:1
I don't know if I explained it because my english is too bad, but I tried, I know that someone else have the same problem than I because I saw it. Do you find the solution? I'm out of my country and I need it so much :crying:
Regards!

Thank you for answer me.
I did it with three diferent stock firmwares and the problem persists (no network signal) I think that is something with the EFS folder, I restored a backup of it but is the same, I have not signal yet, but thank you!

Hey brother it happened with me too, unfortunately, I had to format my internal storage to fix this, you need to flash the latest nougat firmware via odin with csc including bl and modem and then start in recovery then format and start phone, remember you would need to put the google account which was previously there in the phone to unlock and complete setup process (very important here)

Download the latest firmware from https://updato.com (it's fast and reliable) then start in download mode, run odin with administrative privileges, select BL AP Modem and CSC (dont use home since we wish to clean fornat), and in odin uncheck auto reboot option, after the ODIN shows 'pass', disconnect the cord from pc, now you have to be very quick here since our battery is not removable, in order to shut down s7 edge from odin mode, all you have to do is press, volume down, volume up, home and power and as soon as it goes off connect the cord, the battery will show up and now it will be in charging state, after that disconnect the cord, (the phone is now clean fornatted and in off stage) and now boot into recovery to wipe data and cache using default recovery, then reboot phone and then log into your existing google account.
I know its tricky and maybe there's an ez way around it but this worked for me so I'm sharing
SOLUTION, thank you all for your answers!

I tried it at first instance but I could not because my Bootloader was updated to the "U2" version, what I did after that was search the Combination file updated to the U2 bootloader, after a long search I found it.
In resume, The solution is what the OP of that thread says but if you have the same problem like me with the Updated bootloader you need this file instead of the files that are shown there:

You already fixed the problem I guess, you only need to flash the same firmware that your phone had before flashing the Combination file.

Hello guys!
I have a big problem with my S7 edge (G935F)... The problem begins when I forget to turn off the OEM security and then I did an update to my Magisk root... When I tried to reboot my phone it doesn't pass of the first logo image, meaning that I broke the "security", so I read about that and then I flashed a firmware, an official UK (BTU I guess) firmware and then I flashed TWRP via Odin to restore a nandroid that I did when I bought my phone... It restored the EFS partition/folder and when my phone reboots I had no network signal, no IMEI... I just tried everything (I hope not) and I can't give back my IMEI and my network signal... When I try to patch the certificate to recover my IMEI via Odin in the download mode it says: SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE:2. Binary:1
I don't know if I explained it because my English is too bad, but I tried, I know that someone else has the same problem than I because I saw it. Do you find the solution? I'm out of my country and I need it so much :crying:
Regards!

Samsung Galaxy 8 rooting problem

Hi Forum users
have a problem in attempting to ROOT my phone
SAMSUNG GALAXY S8
been a novice user made a mistake
hopping I can still win.
will give very brief Description for the moment hoping to get some help
Basically phone booted into Standard ROM b4 I had finished (last step applying ROOT)
I now get an Error that boots and reboots) the error is
"Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed"
can still get into Download screen, but cannot get to recovery (TWRP)
Oden can still connect to download screen.
I think what I need to do is a Factory reset again, and hopefully get back into RECOVERY
any suggestions or help would be gratefully received
thanks
PS
happy to give full description if needed

You will need to flash firmware via odin.
You can download firmware with updato.com or sammobile.com
Thanks for reply
Thanks for the reply
Ok just to be clear
I have already flashed TWRP
SO I have a bootloader installed
but cannot access RECOVERY MODE
SO I can access Oden in download mode
which Firmware are you suggesting I Flash
Just had a browse of those sites seem to be mainly Northern hemisphere
I am in Australia
But from what I understand we have the same CPU as the European ones

1. Flashing firmware will delete twrp.
2. Being from Australia myself all firmware are on the website. You will have to filter out for Australian firmware.
3. Do you know what firmware you are on.

Hmm didn't take note of that B4 starting
but I think my Model numbers is SM-G950F if that helps
SM-G950F Exynos 8895 9 - just done a quick Google
one other thing that might be relevant i also managed top install
no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip
before stuffing up
will this affect things or will that be overwritten

Flashing stock rom will restore you phone to it's original state. So you will have to install twrp and root again.
For information about firmware and Odin maybe this may be of some help.

If you are not sure about your firmware install the latest version.
On the website they will also have dates of when the firmwares are released.
You can use also samfirm or frija ( PC applications ) to download latest firmware.
OK will follow that info
and do the Firmware update
As I don't know the firmware number, will have to try the latest version
will do a bit more reading when I have a some time and give it a go
thanks for the links.
Will let you know how it turns out
THANKS
Few more Questions
OK done some reading
filtered out some relevent Files, (I hope)
one file took 16 hours to download (they where feeding it at 50kbs).
So have two files which where listed as XSA carrier,
others where Telstra and Optus.
As I am not aware of XSA carrier was hopping that it was some sort of generic carrier firmware
Is that correct ??
One is version 8
the other is version 9
So should I go with the version 9 ?
Sorry for all the questions, just want to make sure I get it right
THANKS

XSA is unbranded firmware ( it's what I have installed on my phone).
If you are locked into a carrier flashing other firmware will not unlock you from that carrier.
Not knowing what firmware you had before and because of download speeds you may have to use version 9 ( PIE ) firmware.
To check software version no. ( bootloader ) you can check in download mode. It should have a line saying AP SWREV: B : * - the star is your bootloader version. So you will have to use this version or higher when flashing firmware.
Make sure of your model number when searching for firmware. S8 = SM-G950f

Are you talking about stock or custom recovery and what is the issues you are having with it.
Depending on you bootloader version number you can not down grade firmware.
I tried to install stock recovery, the problem is: odin installs sucessfully recovery but when i try to go to recovery is not installed

Glad you got it sort out.
Not sure about the signing in. I use mobile app which is logged it to my Google account. I do have some issues with the PC ( without logging into Google ) but don't use it much. All I can suggest is to try a search on XDA or ask the moderators for assistance
Retry installing Recovery
