Please Help Flash GT-I9500 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have tried to flash my GT-I9500 with CSC I9500OJVAMDK (TMC) using Odin and the result was catastrophic:
I have gone into recovery mode and get the following (in yellow beside the droid icon):
#MANUAL MODE#
--APPLYING MULTI CSC
APPLIED THE CSC-CODE: KSA
SUCCESSFULLY APPLIED MULTI-CSC
I have also tried WIPING DATA CACHE and FACTORY RESET from recovery mode
None of this has made any difference, please could somebody point me in the right direction before I pull out what remaining hair I have left.

[Q] Note3 N9005 LTE with XEO slow and boot loops

After flashing a German Note3 with stock 4.4.2 using Odin with the official Open firmware from Poland XEO N9005XXUENB3 the phone is really slow, the SIM card is not recognized and the device has boot loops. The flash process succeeded and factory reset and cache wipe were executed from recovery mode.
Only from recovery mode KOT49H.N9005XXUENB3 it successfully boot when it is again stuck with the boot logo.
In the recovery mode the yellow lines below indicate that the CSC-code DBT (Germany)
The official file was flashed using the AP field and the file: N9005XXUENB3_N9005OXXENB1_HOME.tar.md5
The reason for flashing was to be able to switch to Vietnamese which is available in the XEO firmware.
The phone should have been unlocked because a Lebara SIM card worked before which is no longer being recognized.
Is there a way to restore the functionality within this firmware or do I need to go back to a different firmware ?
I would not mind also trying a Lollipop stock rom but currently do not want to try tripping Knox.
EDIT: Baseband and IMEI is UNKNOWN
EDIT2: Flashing back the DBT firmware N9005XXUGNG1 resolves all these problems but I would still like to be able to switch to Vietnamese (Viet Tieng) language

Samsung Note 4 - N910C - stuck in "installing system update"

Hi
I received this phone with only download mode working.
Recovery mode is not working. Cannot install any recovery mode software, it says "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" and wont do anything.
Download mode is working. I can flash below firmware files only. Other variants wont install.
N910CXXS2CPD4_N910COJV2CPB1_N910CXXU1COK1_HOME.tar .md5
No loop re-boot but just stuck in logo screen. wont go to recovery mode either.
N910CXXU2CPB2_N910COJV2CPB1_N910CXXU1COK1_HOME.tar .md5
No loop re-boot but shows logo and then shows "installing system updates" with android logo and get stuck there. wont go to recovery mode either.
This is the last firmware I flashed and did it with below PIT file,
SM-N910C OJV multi CSC ( ACR AFG AFR ECT EGY KEN KSA LEB MAT MID MRU MTZ MWD PAK THR XFE XFM XFU XSG )
TRELTE_EUR_OPEN_MEA
Still no luck. wont go to recovery mode so that I could try wipe cache.
Does anyone know how I could wipe cache and data without going to recovery mode?
Any help or suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Try flash twrp and boot into twrp and do clean wipe all partitions (system+data+cache+dalvic cache+internal storage) then flash stock firmware.

If still doesn't work the it might be locked by SAMSUNG RE-ACTIVATION LOCK or GOOGLE FRP LOCK.
Sounds like the OS update may have hit a snag. I would recommend that you use a computer to install the OS manually. Download either Samsung Kies or Smartswitch and use the recovery option to repair your device's OS.
Hi, did you fixed the issue?

G9287 in bootloop, after failed nandroid backup.

Hi, I need your help guys, this is the problem:
I have a G9287, in last G9287ZHU2BPE1 6.0.1, stock kernel, rooted with flashed BETA-SuperSU-v2.74 and with twrp-3.0.2-0-zenltezt.
Suddenly it started to behave weird after installing some quick boot programs from play store. So I tried to recover it with a TWRP nandroid backup. And it failed, it said after that:
EXTRACTTARFORK () Process ended with ERROR: 255
I tried doing twice with same results.
So I decided to install original firmware again with Odin. All the Odin process went OK, so it rebooted and started to "installing system update" it went for a while and count some percentage up to 32% and then some more "installing system update" and after a while it went twice to Samsung start screen, it did this bootloop twice and the it went to Samsung Recovery with this legend:
E: failed to mount /preload (Invalid argument)
Supported API: 3
I tried again with Odin and also with Smart Switch with same results.
I tried Samsung Recovery wipe data.
I also tried TWRP wipe, first full "advanced wipe" and after same results, "format data"
Then tried Odin again and same resuts. Incomplete "installing system update" with Odin and Smart Switch.
So I went to download mode and with Odin flashed twrp-3.0.2-0-zenltezt with success
and then flashed Audax_Plus_M_v6.0 with complete success again.The ROM opens perfectly as expected. But only shows one not working SIM signal.
My problem is that I can not stay in this custom ROM since it doesn't support dual sim as my version is. Also there is no custom ROM that I know for G9287 version.
So, because of this, I then went again to Smart Switch to try to intall last firmware version. And get same results, an incomplete system update with same legend in Samsung Recovery.
I have googled all the legends I have gotten, with no conclusive results.
So, I am asking for your advice. Thanks in advance.
Anyone with more knowledge and experience than me, I am a noob, I have keept trying , with same negative results. Audax installs and works perfectlly, samsung firmware still the same, Odin flashes perfectly and ends succesfully and then starts "installing system update" makes a count to 32%, says "erasing" and after some second with system update ,again, shows the dead android and an exclamation and then goes to samsung recovery showing:
Supported API: 3
# MANUAL MODE #
-- Appliying Multi-CSC...
Applied the CSC-code : BRI
Successfully applied multi-CSC.
And if I reboots same results again and again.
I'm now with TWRP 3.0.2-2, I have wiped and full format all partitions.

Also have faced E: un/mount th?ng before, wipe all excluding internal» helped me in this case. Good luck.

S7 edge problem Stock recovery.

Can't flash any Firmware after installing Factory Binary

Hello guys,
I need extremely technical help as no longer know what to do.
I have a*Galaxy*S7*Edge*device, which installed the*rom*Samsung Experience 9.0.
Later I*format data to exfat and it doesn't work. After then I flashed any Nougat Firmware and lost my Imei and Baseband.
Number.
I googled until I came to this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-e...ssues-t3379516
I followed all the steps explained, I back up EFS_backup and RADIO_bakcup partitions.
Installed FACTORY BINARY Firmware for G935F, everything went well. After restarted, already had the correct IMEI number but still did not present the S / N.
After all that, i tried to*install*Stock*Firmware*via Odin, from here started the problems that could not solve.
In the first attempt Odin stucked in "System" (also used the PITfile*with the same CSC ... .i do not know if I was right using PIT?). Restarted the*device*forcibly, entered the stock Recovery, did a complete wipe and always get this message "E: falied to*mountSystem*(Invalid argument), I returned to*install*Factory Binary, then reboot in Recovery and the same message no longer appeared.
Again I try to*install*the Stock*Firmware*and Odin always stucks in*System, or NAND writing, or Partition, etc. I've tried various Stock*Firmware, with and without PIT*files, always without success.
Only Factory Binary that successfully installs. The TWRP via Odin also but when*device*restarts to enter Recovery Mode always get the message at the top of the*display:
"Recovery image signature check Fail"
"Reboot to avoid Warranty bit set."
My Question also is: What do I wrong? Or is my Phone bricked?
Device:
Galaxy S7*Edge (SM-G935F) CSC = DBT = Germany
I really need help, please.
I am facing same problem with my s7 edge g935fd. But in my case i lost imei of both sim cards & lost baseband version. I tried z3x samsung tool. But i didn't found model g935fd there.
Waiting for help
I am having the same problem with an S7 (G930V). During one of the re-flashes, I was able to install the Samsung Product Info App. The CSC product code came up as blank. Not sure if this is normal for this state. Any leads would be appreciated.
