Hi
I am still having problems when installing recovery, modem and bootloader. No matter which pc I used to download I get invalid md5. Would this be affected by loading bootloader? I never loaded bootloader before but loaded it one and then get problems thereafter. I am using Odin to flash. Is there a way I can get this resolved

I updated CM10.2 this morning to the latest nightly and since have not been able to access the recovery or boot to android. I have tried flashing a new recovery and stock image using Odin3 v1.85 but have not had any results. Any recommendations as to what I can do to fix this?

First of all we need more information than this. For example, what files you downloaded and trying to use in odin and such and pics of odin error would mostly help us out more. Since you basically saying you cant boot to recovery nor you can odin back to stock. We get stumped and theres no way to help and just randomly telling you things to do. So the more info you can provide the better and faster solution we can provide you. Thanks

I am actually not getting any errors from Odin. Its just the fact that my phone will boot loop continuously. I've tried letting it sit for ~20 min but it just says Samsung. I have tried booting to the recovery but the phone will then just reboot and try loading the system which does not load past the Samsung boot animation. I have been trying to flash the following stock tar file:
L720VPUAMDC_L720SPTAMDC_L720VPUAMDC_HOME.tar.md5
as found in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2259513&highlight=odin
I have also tried flashing the TWRP version 2.6.1.0 and 2.6.0.0 tar files using Odin also without any luck.
Does this help?

That did the trick. Thanks.
Goo manager was giving me an invalid md5 sum. It finally installed okay but when I reboot into recovery I get a failed boot and it goes to Odin mode. How can I fix this? I am rooted and I think I have an updated gs4

I am guessing there is still no hack for MF3? Do you know if you were on MF3? If you were on MF3 then you are putting yourself in disaster. When you go to download mode and cancel it will it reboot into the ROM?

This thread is filled with people with your issues and were able to resolve it by going to Best Buy to get it flashed to stock mf3. Read this thread to get some better idea:

It's not really a disaster. When I try to go to recovery, it puts me in Odin. I turn off the phone and boot to download mode, hit cancel then the phone reboots normally.

Are you on MF3? You need to search for other situations to see if anyone found a flashable recovery. I don't hang around too often and from what I have saw is your recovery remains broken. If you are on AMDL you should be able to flash it back but if not then you are stuck how the phone is ATM unless you can find an Odin flashable recovery for MF3.

Hi everyone, looking for some advice. I am trying to install GoldenEye 8.0 but getting boot loops. I was previously on 8.0 then flashed 9.0.3 (4.3). I had issues with data and was going to flash the mj5 modem, however before I could do that my external SD card appeared to corrupt.
So tried to flash back to 8.0, seemed to flash OK but bootlooped at Samsung logo on start up. Next I flashed prerooted XXMGA via odin which was fine, then tried flashing 8.0 again in recovery but same thing again when it started boot looping. Any one any ideas? I thought once you had flashed via Odin you were really starting afresh again but I can't seem to get passed this issue.

Hi guys my n910f freshly out of the box said there was a 80mb or so update. It downloads it fine boots to recovery and the fails to install it and says there was an error and restarts, boots to home screen. There its says send report and use kies I tried this but it also fails with unknown error.
Current firmware is N910FXXU1ANIE
Any help appreciated
Okay.... I'm obviously the only one to suffer this issue.
Do you guys think it safe to odin a firmware, i'm thinking I might have a corrupted system as neither ota or kies updates install, both download but error on install.
Thoughts please

Update is that after odin flash the phone boots to firmware update encountered a problem, please select recovery in kies.....which doesn't recognise it. Going back to samsung.

Please help!!!!
I have a SM-G900F S5.
Just updated to XXU1BNL9 Lollipop.
Not clean install, I upgraded it. All official releases from Sammobile, done with Odin 3.09.
Upgrade went all ok, fine, up & running.
Tried to install TWRP 2.8.4.0, also with Odin 3.09
10/10 times it fails with write error.
Any ideas???
Would like to root my phone, so this first step would be really necessary!
Thx!
I fixed Odin fail with a pit file...
Download pit fie for your device...
Open Odin... Flash firmware
When Odin fail... Unplug cable... Plug it back... Uncheck that box with pda (and leave it there) ... Load pit file... And hit start even if the error is still there... After U hit start button It should finish and auto reboot
I USED THIS METHOD JUST FOR FIRMWARE FAIL... I DON'T KNOW IT WILL WORK WITH CWM FAIL in Odin
Also... You should try to download again twrp... Or another source... Version... Etc im sure that the error it's because of the cwm file

Thx for the ideas, I will try them.
I tried to unplug-replug cable, download other TWRP, also from different sources.
Seems as if it was some writing authentication issue of some kind - but no idea, why.

I tried everything else expect the pit file.
I did not find a pit file for the XXU1BNL9 version.
Also, I did not find ClockworkMod for Lollipop, only for 4.4.x
So, I triedTWRP 2.8.1.0 and 2.8.4.0 - both ending the same way: The recover flashing starts with Odin, and then it is almost immadiately fails with some write problem. It seems as if the recovery tar.md5 is not compatibl with the ROM version, or as if some mysterious Samsung protection would reject the recovery flash.
Strange thing is, that all forums (e.g. droidviews, ibtimes, xda, etc.) give a description about rooting this ROM, and not even one mentiones any phenomenon like this.
