Sounds like a bad rom download. Download the rim again or get it from a sticky on xda.
Also it doesn't matter what com port Odin puts the phone on as long as it sees it.

im still fairly new at the whole rooting scene. could you possible link me to the stock rom? oh btw idk if this would matter but i think i had the MF9..
i just want to go back stock for now and get this phone to work.. than i will try again.. thank you in advance!
my uncle also said there is a odin file not the program. but an odin file that you use with odin program. is this true for the s4? if so could you link me to it also!

i just tried it again. and im getting this error now..

I have read that that download fron QBKing is bad. As a poster above me said, download the rom from XDA instead and redo the process. Also, be sure to use the usb cable that came with your phone as others can cause the same issue. Also....if it fails again, try a different usb port. Good luck

Its not really a bad download, had this issue once before when I soft bricked my s4 and I needed to restore it back to stock. You need to delete the .md5 extension and leave it with the .tar extension and that should work! Good luck!

Hmm weird. Redownload the file from qbking77 and delete the extension again. Also try it with a different version of odin for example the one that qbking uses v1.85 (which is also the one I use) and pull out battery and put the battery in and manually set it to download mode and try it one more time. Btw any chance did you get a pop up in your screen saying something about an error of some kind saying about a parameter before?
Edit: Also probably restart computer just in case also.

No its not at a hard brick dont worry dont panic thats the best wat to work around
I would say dont use pit file unless its last option and try without that only may be in other pc using other cable some below steps myte also help u
2) Install later Kies.
3) Kill al kies applications (all 4 of them).
disable antivirus or whatever you got there.) Get to Download Mode and push Vol Up.
7) Open Odin.
8) Plug the device to your laptop.
Does it see the device?
If NO:
A) Get another usb cable, are you using ?
B) Try different Odin Versions (download 3 or 4).
C) Try another USB port.
D) Still no luck? reboot the pc and start from step 3.

Official firmware is not a wiping one. It doesnt flash userdata, it replace system, recovery, and some other partitions.

Great to hear that man
If u flash stock firmware all will remain as its in ODIN but its good if u reset the device after or b4 root
Also take a EFS backup of ur device and be safe
i had root before the device bricks... so i rootet it now again, and works good...
yeah, i will backup efs (hope this <- works...)
yah, thank you again...
have a nice day..

Mh, is this normal for ODIN, having a single PDA file given?
@ SAMGS4: What exactly did you do? For me it looks like you put the same file in all file selection lines.
Do you still have access to phone's UI and can check the complete device properties?
I know this is the wrong device forum but if a mod moves this topic to the proper location, the replies got moved also.
someone please help

thanks and ive just reported the post to be moved, and also i have no access to the phone, i can get it on the download mode and when it says about firmware upgrade kies update etc
Well ... there might be another reason why you can't flash the wanted file - the DL is corrupt. But ODIN checked the md5 hash and the file passed the test.
Did you try to flash another, earlier leaked, ROM for your phone?
Does the ROM match to your country / provider code? Maybe the ROM you try to flash doesn't match exactly to the phone you have; there are various SGS4 models.

hi could you please give me a link to stock rom for three please as cant find one and what recovery would i flash?? thanks?
Mh, can you get into Recovery mode? If not, flash an alternate Recovery mod first. Try PhilZ Touch Recovery. It's being flashed within DL mode, fill only PDA field.
Ah, I didn't notice yet ... you use ODIN 3.04. That's an outdated version; maybe 3.04 can't handle an I9505.
Most current version is 3.07, get it here. In this post it's said ODIN 1.85 can already deal with an I9595; try this too.
Does ODIN run with Admin rights? Maybe there's a problem with your Windows UAC.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2281367
That's the link for philz recovery. Download the latest .tar and flash in O.
Boot into recovery and wipe everything including the internal SD. Make sure you back up.
By the looks of it you are flashing the latest three firmware. MEA H3G.
I'd download the firmware again. You can get it from Sammobile.com. you'll need to register an account. Think its labelled as Hutchisons 3G
someone please help
i just tryed to flash PhilZ Touch Recovery and it failed, also ive tried all the odins and the one that seems to get me the furthest is the 3.04
someone please help
anymore ideas?? pls:crying:
Have you tried another PC, one with Win 7 or 8 on it?It doesn't look like a partition problem, it seems to get further through each time but keeps failing. Might be a problem with your PC...
Oh, and I use ODIN 3.04 to flash too...

[Q] HELP...I stuck on yellow sprint screen after restoring from a nandroid backup

Yesterday I had just rooted my Sprint Galaxy S4 on 4.3 and tried flashing Sac's 4.3 Rom and it 1st left me at some shinig small android logo so i decided it would've been a better idea to restore back to stock ( with the back up i made in TWRP ) and after i restored the back up, the phone's screen was stuck on the yellow sprint boot screen. After that i've tried using Odin mutiple times as seen a solution in other posts to completely put the phone back to stock/unroot it and i get the following error from Odin: *Note I've tried using 2 different versions of odin and 2 different laptops.*

Grab this tar (it's zipped, so unzip and use tar.md5..) and try it in Odin. It's the full MJA.
Also make sure to run Odin 'As administrator'
Thanks leadbuilder! I managed to reflash a stock 4.3 mja.tar from that exact link about an hour ago i right before i read your reply.
Thank you for repsponding though!
Thanks for the reply!
It's always good to know what happened. That way maybe others can benefit too.
If you hang around and read all the way through some of the posts you will quickly get a really good education on how this device works and have a blast with this phone. There are some really good devs and contributors here.
Good luck.

[Q] AT&T SGS4 Failed 'Unroot'

So I've been itching to get the new KitKat update that ATT released the other day for the GS4's but since I'm rooted, I of course cannot achieve that until I roll back to 4.2 with the Odin method. The only problem is..I cant seem to figure out why my phone won't accept the flash process.

My phone also has some red text during the process (while its in Download mode) which says..

Not sure if that's important but the more information the better I suppose.
Anyway, if anyone has any leads or information that might be able to help me, please and thank you very much.

Galaxy S5 G900A stock firmware Lollipop 5.0 downgrade to kitkat

Im in a bit of a dilemma. I bought a new s5 with lollipop already installed on it and decided to root it. To root i needed to downgrade it. So using Odin, i attempted a downgrade only to come to a FAIL conclusion. I tried different .tar files that were kit kat, also found rooted lollipop firmware which always failed. I tried using a pit file which didnt seem to help. I cleared the cached and wiped the system memory multiple times. The only screen i am able to see is the Downloading screen and the reboot screen (volume up, home, and power)
I guess i soft bricked my phone... is there anyway to fix this problem?
Thanks a lot

In addition, i also tried to update the phone through an sd card using the file G900A-OF3toOI5-ota-2400258.cfg and renaming it to update.zip. Through the recovery menu, i wiped cache partition and did a factory reset. Then I applyed the update from external storage and get an Error Status 7.
This is everything i tried. Im running out of ideas and getting frustrated as this is a brand new phone
@yakmicjan But why are you using a modded version of odin ? Use a normal one , took the last version , then go to sammobile donwload the last firmware for your phone. Extract it and flash it with odin. It should work
Don't flash any pit file with it or anything , just the firmware.

I downloaded so many different types of odins and tried these files on all of them. The only modded version of odin is on the .exe file. I tried Odin3 v1.85, 3.10.6, 3.09. All of them gave me the same exact message.
Sadly, on sam mobile, the very last version they have for SM G900A is 4.4.2 which doesnt help since my phone already had lollipop installed on it. Does this mean i have to wait until they get a lollipop firmware for me to use my phone?

Wait i just saw "Re-partion failed" , was it ticked before the flash ? Make sure only auto reboot and Reset time are ticked.

Im not adding the Pit File at all. I dont know why it shows up. I'll attach proof.
By the way, its the same exact error message as above.
Im so sorry about this annoying problem and for me being such a bother. Thank you so much for trying to help me
Why are you adding anything other than just the ROM in AP?
Remove everything from ODIN, and only add the ROM in AP

Look , choose ONLY the rom which is a very big .tar file and put it in AP , that's it. Do not add anything , anything. The firmware is about 2.4/2.5 go , you flash it and that's it
