Hello all,
First I must congratulate all of you technically minded people who've guided me through rooting and custom rom-ing my G1, S2 and now S4, but it seems now that I have a phone beyond repair.
Background
I have a GT-I9505 from the 3 network [h3g] here in the uk.
A couple of months ago I used CF auto root to give root privileges to install ad-away to remove those pesky advertisments yet all was not well.
Around once a week main core processes would hang or crash the phone completely and when the phone was rebooted or powered on, it would hang on the 3 logo.
Booting into recovery and wiping cache and data would fix it, as would a re-flash of the CF auto root using Odin.
A week ago, after a call, the phone hanged - i did a hard reset, removing the battery but the phone was stuck on the 3 logo screen again.
After becoming annoyed by this happening every week i decided to revert to stock rom.
What I have done
I flashed I9505XXUBMEA_I9505H3GBME3_I9505XXUBMEA_HOME.tar.md5 via Odin.
Odin said it was successful although the phone still wouldn't boot.
I went into recovery mode and attempted to wipe data and cache, but wiping of the cache failed.
Repeated efforts led me to flashing a PIT file with the above ROM and again ODIN said it was a success, but still the phone hung on the 3 logo.
Booting into stock recovery, again the phone failed to wipe cache,
How my GT-I9505 is now in a worse state
After stock recovery failing to write cache i downloaded TeamWin recovery and flashed it to my phone and attempted to write cache. Again failed.
Now i did something stupid - i saw in the recovery menu something along the lines of "reset permissions", thinking this would let me delete the cache I applied it and proper bricked my phone.
I cannot boot into recovery - I am stuck on the TeamWin logo.
I'm not sure the battery is charging. (Grey battery icon with a 'refresh style' logo, no animated charging(
I can boot into ODIN mode.
Since this, I've been reading around and tried GT-I9505-Factory-Firmware-Full-Wipe-DBT

So this is real squeaky bum time and i really don't want to do anything else without advice as a true hard brick is not something I want nor can afford.
I've used the original white USB cable and other official samsung cables, I've tried different usb ports and computers with ODIN, all with the same results.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to unbrick this marvellous yet expensive phone, I will be truly and forever grateful and may buy you a pint if you're ever in Nottingham or perhaps do some statistics for you!!
Hsve you tried just the pit and repartition on its own, and then trying from there to flash the rom? I've read others who had success this way

Thanks for the reply, yes I've tried just flashing the PIT, then the rom with all variations e.g. unticking auto-reboot in ODIN, hard reset, boot into ODIN mode, then attempting to flash the ROM.
ODIN will flash the PIT but refuses to flash the ROM
Fail (WP)
I'm assuming (WP) is some kind of write protection

I've just tried it with ODIN v3.04 and v1.85, with combinations of PIT alone with no auto reboot followed by flashing the rom along with doing both at once and unfortunately even though ODIN writes the PIT it fails to write the ROM.

Using Heimdall:
As with ODIN, writing the PIT is completed.
Alas, Heimdall cannot write ANY partitions from the extracted .tar files from the GT-I9505-Factory-Firmware-Full-Wipe-DBT ROM.
It does seem that the flash memory is write protected - it certainly cannot be written to.
If I were in this situation I would do the following:
Download latest PhilZ recovery for i9505.
Flash this in PDA section of Odin.
Boot to recovery and go to mounts and storage.
Format system, data, cache, preload (and format SD card if there's nothing important you need like photos etc)
You now have a TOTALLY clean device.
Boot to download mode and flash MGA stock firmware with Odin.
I would download the MGA firmware from Sammobile as these are untouched stock firmware files.
If flash is successful boot to recovery (it will now be stock) and wipe data factory reset.
Now reboot.
Hopefully you should be good to go
P.S If once again Odin fails on nand write start the you probably have a corrupt nand and I hate to say it but a whole board replacement might be needed.
Good luck mate!

Have you tried to flash the pit + stock firmware with the re-partition box checked?
BTW, be careful using Heimdall. I've hardbricked my phone to the point that I cannot go to recovery and download mode while using that tool. It was impossible to turn the phone off and charge the phone as well. I didn't know what caused it (probably incorrect bootloader/pit) but as a result I needed a board replacement. Luckily Samsung replaced it for free as they cannot revive the phone anymore lol.

Thanks for taking the time to provide the advice, I've tried flashing PhilZ recovery via ODIN and it tells me it has been successful, however when i try to boot into recovery it appears it's not flashed at all as I get stuck on the previous recovery TeamWin loading screen - it looks as if the nand maybe corrupted after all.

Yes, I've attempted to flash the pit + correct stock firmware with the re-partition box checked and while it writes the pit, Odin starts to write the firmware then fails about halfway through.
Perhaps, reading between the lines, it would be better for me if indeed I hard bricked the phone to a state where the recovery and download mode are not accessible as then it would not be obvious I had invalidated the warranty by previously rooting the phone and would get a free replacement!
Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Damn that's quite unfortunate. Sorry mate, I'm out of ideas. I wouldn't actually advise to hard brick the phone intentionally because as far as I know there's still hope as you can still access download mode.
Well if you can't really flash anything it's probably best to just hard brick the phone to the point that the Samsung guys wouldn't be able to revive it then send the phone for repairs than having to send it in it's current state because they'll most likely find out that you've modified your phone. Again I strongly suggest not to do it.
Good luck. Hope you fix it soon buddy.

Download Kies and install samsung drivers with it. Click on tools tab and click emergency firmware restore. Type in your phone model e.g GT-I9505 and then type in your Serial Number (can be found in the battery compartment of the phone) Kies will then ask you to go to download mode and then it will start downloading firmware and installing it on your device.
The write protection enabled message suggests to me that you've previously had one of the stock firmwares with the new bootloader. Have you had MH8 on there?
If you're desperate you could always try flashing MH8 firmware. The new bootloader won't let you downgrade to an older firmware giving a message as above.

Had this issue
Hey There, i had this issue last night infact, i had bricked my phone, recovery not accessible and download mode only possible by plugging it in and then starting it, try this put your phone into download mode, via plugging it in then turning it on, when it is in download mode flash PhilZ recovery via the PDA option then turn it off after flashing by taking out the battery (after it has rebooted and flashed), then plug it in again, launch into recovery and wipe/format etc.. install a new MH8 stock firmware (with the new bootloader) then you should be okay.
It should be noted that i did these step and it worked, except i didn't ever install a new rom and kept stock and i used a nandroid backup instead of installing the stock rom
You say twrp logo shows up. Does it start adb ? Maybe u can remount partitions as RW with terminal . manually wipe it. And then try adb sideload to install a .zip
All I can think of as every other suggestions seem to have been mentioned.

Hi All,
So, I was one of those people who last night decided I needed to have clean install for my newly LPY ICS flashed through odin PC. Obviously, I had not read the warning threads only after my phone got stuck on format and then rebooted and got stuck on logo did I visit XDA and saw the new warning Anyhow, what I had flashed was a rooted version of LPY ICS. Now, I have access to download mode but when I tried to reflash through Odin PC I get a failed attempt with this message !!!
**Edit: I don't think I did use repartition...I usually never do....this all started after me trying to clean install via CWM from official rooted LPY it got stuck on formatting then rebooted and was on logo forever so I proceeded to use Odin flashing LPY failed, tried all methods posted here besides flashing kernel Abyuss note 4.2 from in PDA as someone here suggested but since I can't find one that works with Odin I just reflash LC1 rooted stock multiple times but no luck it fails and NAND Write Start which is almost at the end of flashing.

You are making one huge mistake : you have the box "re-partition" selected. Uncheck that option and you should be good to go.

Hi All,
So, I was one of those people who last night decided I needed to have clean install for my newly LPY ICS flashed through odin PC. Obviously, I had not read the warning threads only after my phone got stuck on format and then rebooted and got stuck on logo did I visit XDA and saw the new warning Anyhow, what I had flashed was a rooted version of LPY ICS. Now, I have access to download mode but when I tried to reflash through Odin PC I get a failed attempt with this message !!!

It goes almost all the way but then somehow stops at the nand write part. Anyone has any clue?
Did you completely uninstall kies? It's worth a shot...
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Uninstalling Kies right now...will try again flashing. Thanks!
take out your battery, restart the pc... and try another cable if possible.
make sure all firewalls and/or antivirus softwares are disabled. if it helps, run odin as administrator.
while you do that, i shall make a bonfire and prepare to dance around naked around the flame and chant the songs my great ancestors has been singing since time immemorial.
Ok, I think I found a pattern for the failed attempts during flashing...it always stalls and fails during the NAND Write Start.....anyone has any clue as to why?
Maybe it sounds stupid but what version of Odin do yo use?
Apologies if this has been asked before, but I tried checking everywhere for a solution and couldn't come up with anything.
I have an AT&T Galaxy S4 I337. I rooted it, but now I want to unroot it. I used Odin 3v185 and this is what I get:

pull battery,
put battery back in,
boot into odin using the physical keys (home+volume down+power),
then when it says press volume up to boot into odin, or volume down for cancel choose volume down.
Might boot up normally, i have the issue to where to recovery is messed up, all i need is the 'install-recovery.sh' but no one who has a rooted S4 running MF3 has responded to me yet..ill let you know if i fix the recovery that way.

At this point, I don't know if you'd be able to fix it that way. The only option that many users have been doing is going to best buy with a Samsung experience area and having them reflash the MF3 firmware.

now phone doesnt boot
can you do me favor ?
If it boot to download mode, try flashing a 4 file package stock rom. You can get it with SamFirm.
Sounds like a soft brick, but if the reactivation lock is on, you wont be able to flash anything through odin.
i have tried with 4 part firmware but that error apears.
i dont acces to disable reactivation lock . so what shoud i do now? do you have any idea?
try using the pit file as well, it's included on the CSC package of the 4 part files. Load it on the PIT tab.
If that wont make a difference, your eMMC (internal storage) is either locked or done.
I've searched the heck outta this - and tried everything. I simply don't understand why I am getting nowhere. There is some fundamental thing I must be doing wrong but I don't know what.. I am sure that minds superior to mine can fix this.... I just need someone to take pity on me....
The phone is a SM-N900W8 (Bell Canada) that was completely stock running Android 5. After a battery pull, I got Set Warranty Bit : kernel error. Or if I try to get to recovery I get Set warranty Bit : recovery. I 'should' be able to flash stock ROM and fix, correct? Well, flashing stock ROM does not work. I tried flashing a TWRP too. Nothing. I tried flashing just a recovery or a boot, even tried flashing a N900T version (I read that works on my model too). I've tried latest Odin (3.13) or earlier versions (esp. 3.09, or 3.10). Nothing. It shows a pass in ODIN, but it's still not getting past these warranty bit errors. I can not get to any recovery...
The phone remains undaunted by my feeble attempts.
I'm using the original Samsung USB cable, attached to my motherboard ports (tried different ones too) and the ODIN downloads appear to load (I get the blue bar that increases across the screen). It reboots and then we're back to the error.
I have NOT tried ticking the re-partition box - is that the way to go? Isn't there a pit file contained in the stock ROM?
Should I be trying to flash using an image on the SD card?
Help me Obi-wan....
Here's a fix to where you are
I have exact same model and was where you are
Step 1 remove battery
Step 2 hold home button power button volume button
Step 3 continue holding all 3 buttons and put battery back in voila you get to recovery

Try this :
- Turn off the phone.
- Enter Download mode.
- At the first download mode screen where it says you can press Volume-down to boot normally, press volume-down to boot normally.

No it did not.
I have not tried to re-partition (the box has not been ticked in ODIN) - would that be something worth trying?
No not without be 100% prepared for dead phone.
Repartition you really need to know what you are doing with PIT etc.

You are flashing the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com in Odin?

There was no ODIN error - it said "pass".
I was using the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com (bell Canada version for Ontario).
Try flashing again with a pit file. Without a pit file, you won't be able to re-partition.
Hello,
i had all common problems with my stock branded note 4 (freezing, restarting, eMMC Failure,..) and i tried to resolve them with simpler methods (wipe reset, no microsd,..) but without results.
Then i tried to flash stock rom no brand but again without results; i decide to try the custom ROM (lineage-15.1-20180808-UNOFFICIAL-trlte) but the phone continued to freeeze and to swich off.
Now i would like to return with stock rom but i havw a problem with PIT file during the flashing of custom Rom with Odin; the procedure fails.
When i start the phone i have the errore " firmware upgrade encountered an issue please select recovery mode in kies and try again"; now i cant' go in recovery mode but only in download mode.
If i try to flash the stock rom i have this problem :

Thank you
Which version do you have? I have the PIT files for the 910C and 910F that I've extracted from my Note 4s.
You load both the PIT file and stock ROM into ODIN and flash them together.
EDIT: Just noticed you've had the mmc_read failed error. The above might not work depending on how far gone your emmc is.
Thank you! My version is 910F.
I read about a solution where it's necessary to put the phone in the freezer and i'll try it flashing with ODIN.
How do i have to set Odin?
AP: I have downloaded the stock firmware in Sanmobile and i'll use it
PIT file? in BL?
I would like also to reset the knox counter (my intention is to give back the phone using the Samsung evaluation of the used phones); is it possibile?
Thank you
There's a separate option to select the PIT file in Odin.
You can't reset Knox, it's an efuse, once tripped/blown then that's it.
