Completely stock ROM to flash through ODIN?

to further clarify. the original, stock, launch day firmware has a build number ending with ucalem which includes a baseband radio labeled as uclem.
this is nothing more than an educated guess but from a slight familiarity with samsungs naming conventions of the past the baseband and firmware were probably compiled one last time on the same day getting ready to be placed on launch devices which is why the names are sooo... similar

i would actually guess it was meant to be flashed in kies. that's the icon next to the firmware. also it's a zip and if i'm not mistaken the odin pda slot looks for some other extension.

I didn't know Kies allowed you to just load any firmware in it. I thought Kies required you download the firmware on command.
EDIT: Yea, I looked through Kies, couldn't find a way to load a firmware from a file there. I'm downloading it now to try to see if the ZIP file may contain what we need. I'm not the most skilled with it, but if it does......we are GOLDEN
I suspect the Kies icon means they pulled it from Kies. In theory we should be able to extract a .tar file from such if it isn't but I can't say.

If you look inside the zip file you will find the tar.md5 which is usually ODIN. Not sure what the dll file in there is for though, and may explain the Kies part.

From what I can tell Kies does the same as ODIN, just user friendly. Why would Samsung have 2 different files for restore? Easier to use the same files and just add an initialisation file for Kies. I did just email them with that question, see if they get back to me. Maybe someone will find out beforehand, but why not inquire while we wait?

Will be interesting to hear what you get back. Don't want to flash this through anything yet, at least till we find out what it is.
Could provide for an ODIN root method.

We already have an ODIN root method, if anything it might provide a stock reflash that might actually clear the modified counter.

guys this is latest firmware provided by samsung and uploaded by samsung to kies.
we have just uploaded it to our fw database to allow you faster download (than from kies or hotfile and so) if you need this 'update' to restore system or make a mod
this is odin flashable as any other firmware you can download from kies
enjoy

So to flash through ODIN we would rename the tar.md5 to just .tar and load that into ODIN? Or is there another trick?

I'm flashing it now via ODIN. I'm bricked anyway, so I figure, what the hell.
Let you know shortly.

Kies user friendly ? good joke - ive heard about more bricks due to kies app mallfunction that via odin
you can not upload file to kies for flaah - it mut be done by odin
and if this version has another version number than the one your phone got shipped that means at&t pushed an updated firmware
peace, going to bed till tomorrow

Currently flashing, will report back in a few
SUCCESSFUL!
For teh brick'd noobs
All I did was unzip and choose the tar.md5 file into Odin PDA and click start. Easy.

Here we go again: LATEST_FW_VERSION: I9100XWKE2/I9100XEUKD1/I9100XXKDJ/I9100XWKE2

Seems like they're on a roll. Build date 6th May.
Available via Kies, don't have an ODIN link yet.
Download link for ODIN: Megaupload or multiupload
Jesus Christ. Is there a change log somewhere?
Wow. It sucks that stuff was broken in the first place but you've got to give Samsung credit for staying on top of it and turning these releases around. I'm glad I won't have my phone until tomorrow. I'll be able to skip some of the gymnastics. I really hope this one nails the battery issues.
ODIN ODIN ODIN. I already froze Kies, and have no intention of unfreezing it, lol.
lol this is fun, well i will get use to using odin i guess so its a good thing, let us know when u have the link
Please
Uploading Odin version now (is no one will beat me to it)
Come again?
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AM2P1S22
is that baseband or build number?
because my basband is kdj
and is this for unlocked uk versions?
Download:

Would anyone be kind enough to upload the new kernel on it's own or tell me how to extract it from the files so that I can re-flash after rooting

If you have XWKE1, you have the latest baseband. But this update will still give you a PDA update.
Kies only release them as a package, that's why you have to apply it all, even though you only need the PDA update.
Yes, it is unlocked UK version.
If you have Korean or O2 versions, please check your Kies for updates, do not use these files.

It won't. AT&T and (and I think possibly Sprint too) doesn't release updated firmware releases. They only make the original (in this specific instance, KitKat) firmware available and that's it. If you're already on 5.1.1 you should make a system dump and then see if anyone's willing to make you a firmware file from it. If you're not on 5.1.1 and want to be, I have the original OTA file if you need

The only firmware Samsung or AT&T has released (and most likely will ever release) is the original KitKat firmware: LTE AT&T SM-T337A UCU1ANF4 And unfortunately I've heard that others have not been able to downgrade when trying. It sounds like you need to bring it into the store, unless the boot(LP fix).tar can get your tab booting again

I've tried everything, including the boot(LP fix) and bring it to best buy....it all started with a root, where the message shows "System software not authorized by AT&T has been found..." then i used the boot(LP fix) subsequently causing the fact that the AT&T globe is stuck on boot up perhaps FOREVER...

@AllenPlaysGames too. I am trying to make a 5.1.1 Odin firmware file for you guys, but I don't have the device. So you/I need someone with the SM-T337A to at the very least make a system dump . Ideally I would also need the modem.bin, NON-HLOS.bin, recovery.img, a cache dump, and the PIT file. But at the very least, you need to go into these other threads and ask someone with rooted lollipop to make a system dump. And the other things I mentioned if at all possible.
@CocaFoca, @TechNyne66 any chance you could help?

I possibly could? I have my tablet but all it does is boot loop when I turn it on. Is there any way that I can get a system dump from download mode or recovery? If so, I can be of assistance.
Sorry I'm in need of system restore as well, due to root experimenting. But someone with a working device can root via our method and gain the system dumps. Would be nice as my wife is made I broke my tablet I can assist anyone who wishes to try :laugh:

I didn't think you could get back to PE1 from PJ2 just by flashing the PE1 firmware. I also did not see where you explained how to get Voice and SMS back (possibly not needed if you are coming from PE1). Is this info included in the download (dropbox is preventing download because you're soo popular ) or does the XTether mod fix this issue?
I have heard that flashing the Echoe Rom from PE1 fixes most issues.

Yes you can start on PJ2 Firmware, however before you start rooting process you have to be on PE1. My guide includes how to get back down to PE1 before you start rooting. You can use Odin and the firmware included to flash you Samsung completely back to PE1. The only reason you can't use PJ2 is because it has updated PRL's and they wont allow you to reactivate your service, therefore to reactivate your phone service you have to be on PE1 Firmware using the older PRL's.
I do not know anything about a pit file, I have done this process many times with no problem. The reason I've done it so many times is to test out its success rate, and every time I've done it, the method gets easier to do, and it works 100% of the time.

As it says in the post, I did not create this method, I simply make it easier to follow. How to get sms and calling back is in the link reference under the subtitle "4.Rooting:". He shows how to root the device and then get everything working. He just doesn't explain the setup,how to install Xposed, and he does not show how to get back to PE1 so that's what I've done with my post, is just make it easier to follow.
SIDE NOTE: Service and sms is very easy to get back on PE1 I tried many times to do it on PJ2 using different methods, the PRL just wouldn't allow me to activate my device.
When I tried this method it said pit fail immediately in Odin. I tried adding the pit file but it still failed
just tried it too. Same result. execept i didn't try with a PIT. think you could provide it for me? @vegoja

Hmm. Ok. Can you tell me your variant of Samsung Galaxy S7. Like what service provider, Snapdragon or Exynos?
and did you use the files directly from my drop box link?
Did you run Odin as admin?
Does the Odin exe file say "Odin PrinceComsy.exe" and you also have to "Odin3.ini" config settings?
Maybe this post will help.

S8 Active Help (Baseband version is G892AUCS3BRG1)

Hello guys, I have just now heard that At&T is rolling out the Android Pie update to the S8 Active. Unfortunately, I do not have a AT&T SIM card on my device currently. This causes my phone to not get ANY updates. The only update I last got was when I sent my phone to a Samsung Technician after I bricked my phone from failed root attempts. I am currently in Android 8.0.0. Is there any way to flash any Pie firmware to my phone even though it is Bootloader v3? Any help is GREATLY appreciated as I am getting so tired of Oreo. I tried using Smart Switch but it says my phone is in the latest firmware update which is a lie, my security patch level is July 2018...
Edit: I have recently unlocked my phone from AT&T in hopes of getting an update, but I didn't know the firmware would stay. And no, I do not have ANY access to AT&T SIM cards or stores.
Edit 2: Solved! I just used a firmware download I got from this forum because sammobile.com did not have it here it is: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bw-cYNY1KoEH4Pa-a9dJRQJW09r_uw93/view Just flash this firmware to your phone from Odin! This does not risk breaking or voiding your warranty if you still have one! I am enjoying Pie right now! Give thanks to the who supplied me with the firmware link and youdoofus who actually responded to me. I just wanted to be assured that the firmware that is Pie will be good for my device. This is for people who do not have ATT SIM on their phone or cannot receive update. Model number must be from ATT and SM-G892A!

the problem youre going to run into is the availability of firmwares for your phone. sammobile.com/firmwares was a bust, looking elsewhere for ya. But if you have a computer, usb type-c cable Odin and the correct firmware version and are able to get to download mode, then you should be in good shape.
So I have a firmware at hand with my phone model that is pie, if I update it through Odin, will it void my warranty? Or will there be any chance it will brick my phone because I have done this many times. If it wasn't for ATT bootloader v3 I would've not been asking all these questions. I have already used sammobile.

it will not void your warranty. isnt your warranty expired on an S8 anyways? only rooting/unlocking bootloader will void the warranty.

Here is the firmware that I want to upload into my SM-G892A, will this help my phone get Pie? Will I need to download any special Odin? Thanks for the help.

the firmware version in your link is the one in this article which is pie, so yes. As far as Odin goes, i usually default to the newest one if im out downloading one anyways. 3.13.1 is the latest version. https://odindownload.com/SamsungOdin/#.XWFVzOhKjb0

Some tips before flashing? Did you flash every file on the .zip archive? (BL_ , AP_ , CSC and so?)
Factory reset before/after flashing?

Since its just an update, you are able to keep your data if you put HOME_CSC in the bottom box. So, yes use every file if you want to keep your data. If not, put CSC where its supposed to be and thats it. I don't have access to my computer but thats what I did. You don't need factory reset. Just go to any "How to Install Any Firmware Update through Odin" Video on YouTube and you should see a good tutorial. It is just an update. I hope I fixed you problem! Don't be nervous about updating, only be nervous when you flash a ROM on it!

nothing other than having the correct version of Odin for your phone and ADB drivers installed along with the correct firmware files. And yes the Home_CSC is to not factory reset, and the regular CSC is to factory reset it
PIT Error
I tried flashing the files you provided, but it keeps failing on "Get PIT for Mapping". I tried 4 times and every one failed on the same part. I am on the exact same baseband version you were on, the provider is AT&T and the phone is unlocked. I don't get what the problem is...

you need to go into the CSC file and extract the PIT. once extracted, go into the other options in Odin and put the pit in its slot, then reflash with the CSC you got the PIT from in its proper place along with the others.

The CSC is just a compressed file, so WinRAR will do it if 7zip doesnt

I did that but it didn't change anything. Do I need to remove the pit file from the CSC file?
