[Q] Bricked phone while uninstalling APKs - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Bricked my phone while uninstalling APKs. Was using version 4.3. Unsure of baseband version. After which I tried to turn on my phone and all I could see was the samsung logo and it got stuck there.
Tried to reflash my phone with version 4.3 kernels and ROMs to no avail.
Unable to get past Starting apps. Sometimes flashing just gives me a black screen.
Any help would be good. Much thanks.

[Q] Problem rooting SM-N9005

For two days i have been struggling to root my new Orange Romania N9005.
First of all I downloaded CF Auto Root and Odin 3.09. Followed the steps exactly (i'm not new to rooting) ,Uninstalled Kies and downloaded the latest drivers only, and every single time I try to root it Odin gives the following error:
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

On the screen of the note 3 the following error in red : SECURE CHECK FAIL : recovery
I have since tried every single version of ODIN , tried flashing pre-rooted roms only to get my device soft bricked(Fails right at the very end, and then I restored via kies )
,I have tried to change usb ports to no avail, even tried to root it on 4 different laptops.Tried with different cables, with usb debugging on and off, NOTHING WORKS!!!
Please help me I am thinking of setting it on fire!!!
Try install Kies and try again...
/CK
tried with old kies and kies 3 as well.Also tried older drivers.
Do i have a locked BootLoader?This shouldnt be the case as it is an n9005.
Any way to check if bootloader is locked and if so any way to unlock it for the international version?
Thanks!
No one?
Doesn't any one know how to help?Don't know where else to ask.

I had the same issue while rooting my Galaxy S4,tried on every other laptop,different ports,cables and more but then I realized I was using the wrong file.
Yes,the international version comes with Bootloader unlocked so your bootloader is fine.Are you able to boot your phone into Download mode?I am sure u cant boot into Recovery mode,can you?
First go back and check your phone's model no and use the proper file and try again!I will help you,dont worry!
I deactivated the reactivation lock but still the same problem.I have Downloaded the CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar file several times same thing every time.My last chance is doing a full wipe of the system and then trying again.I hope orange Romania CSC does't have some sort of security block.
Frustrating thing is the phone is fully functional so i cannot ask for a replacement.And even after the dozens of failed flash attempts it still reads 0x0.
YES!!!Finally.A full wipe did it.!Thank you for your interest in helping me.

kindly give the correct link.

Before you wanna flash. Don't forget to uncheck reactivation lock, put off your external sd card. And look carefully for your modem and radio. Don't switch with the another kernel before official launch comes.

Yes, the reactivation lock did it for me too. I was stuck at exactly the same point and couldn't think of why, and this didn't even come to mind. In fact, I forgot that I even did that, but it worked. !!!

Help please, I have a (Note 3) SM-N900V on JSS15J.N900VVRUBMJE.
I bought it on Jan 12th ish, and took the firmware update as soon as I saw it because of some reading I had done.... shouldn't have done that I guess.
I am still totally unable to root this thing, Kingo, Odin v3.0.9. I am willing to do w/e (go back to older firmware even if possible)
I know there are no guarantees in this attempt, and would not hold you to anything, I have rooted every other android I have had and am very familiar with the process, any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated

Tried flashing another stock ROM trying to get back to stock from root. That didn't work. Then I flashed this and am able to boot. But my mobile data icon is just 4G instead of being 4G LTE (or LTE), and I'm missing the WiFi calling button as well.
So, I probably need to flash the radios and everything with this. So, do I flash the AP first from the ZIP, then everything else after, or can I flash them all at once? Not an experienced ODIN user. Only used it a handful of times.

Yes you must flash all parts of this to be on stock PI4 ROM. But remember that you will lose root and not get it back.
You sir are a life saver thank you so much i was stupid didnt read thru forums and tried to root on the latest update...this flashed via odin brought my phone back to life

Thanks, guys. Those were the answers I was looking for.
Hello I want to say thank you for providing the T-Mobile Firmware Package for restoring the Note 7 to its original state after a Rooting atampt botched up. I also had this problem but now restored the phone with the supplied firmware. Thank you.
I do have one problem though. The firmware supplied has the first update with the annoying Safety Recall statement in that hugh box while plug is inserted, pulled out and turned on. I like to know if you can supply the original firmware that the phone came boxed with or if you have some kind of way of getting rid of that stupid annoying big box message that pops up all the time.
And again thank you so much.
Ok I feel like a dumb ass,
This has to be the most complicated root, update I have ever seen. I accidently hit update earlier today which reduced my battery life to 60% I tried living with it today and it was driving me absolutely nuts I thought about taking the phone in and getting a damn iphone just because I'm tired of messing around with this phone..... I tried to root using post one however it keeps failing, I tried rooting using post 2 that also failed. I tried going back one firmware version that also didn't work, I tried doing the samsung smart switch recovery it asks for a code I tried the serial of the phone and model number that also didn't work. Can someone please explain either how to get root from the newest firmware or to revert back to a older firmware that dosen't have this stupid battery restriction. The information of my phone is below .
I'm tired of the battery restriction and tired of hitting okay I know my phone will blow up....

Ok I feel like a dumb ass,
This has to be the most complicated root, update I have ever seen. I accidently hit update earlier today which reduced my battery life to 60% I tried living with it today and it was driving me absolutely nuts I thought about taking the phone in and getting a damn iphone just because I'm tired of messing around with this phone..... I tried to root using post one however it keeps failing, I tried rooting using post 2 that also failed. I tried going back one firmware version that also didn't work, I tried doing the samsung smart switch recovery it asks for a code I tried the serial of the phone and model number that also didn't work. Can someone please explain either how to get root from the newest firmware or to revert back to a older firmware that dosen't have this stupid battery restriction. The information of my phone is below .
I'm tired of the battery restriction and tired of hitting okay I know my phone will blow up....

So I gave that a go and it tells me that the device is not supported after doing the model and serial number lol.

If only it was that easy. As of now I can't even get into android it fails to boot. I cleared cache and factory reset and still won't boot. I'm sure I will have to flash now for sure from recovery or download mode. I think Samsung is ****n with us somehow to not let us flash.

The same thing happened to me. I re-flashed to the recent firmware I had installed originally (the one with the big ugly safety recall message from September). I flashed everything at once BL, AP, CP and CSC(I used the HOME_CSC_*.tar.md5 named file because I was returning to stock)

Can I update my Galaxy Grand Prime (SM-G530H) to Lollipop?

My sister's phone is Galaxy Grand Prime and still running Android 4.4.4. I've searched over the net and there is Lollipop update already for some countries. There's still no update here in the Philippines. Can I update this device using firmwares from other countries? Thanks!

If I flashed Lollipop on this device, all data stored on my device will be deleted?
And I searched the latest version of odin, it is now 3.12.3.

As @waleeds1 said, No. But I recommend you to take backup of all your data nd do a factory reset after you flash Lollipop firmware.
That way you won't get any lags or performance glitches.

Make sure you've a good backup. Nd also you've Samsung USB drivers already installed in your PC.
Power off your device nd boot in download mode by pressing Volume Down + Home + Power Buttons together.
Then open Odin nd connect your phone to PC via data cable nd press volume Up key on phone, then if it shows you "Added" in Odin you're good to go.
Select the AP option nd select the firmware which you've downloaded. Now it'll take some time to verify the md5 as depending upon the speed of your PC. Once it has verified you'll be able to click on other options. So now you've to click on Start nd make sure you don't move your device or the connection doesn't cut off or your device might get hard bricked.
That's it, the flashing time would be about 4-5 minutes. After it is flashed the phone will reboot nd now you can factory reset the device properly for a clean new device.
I've told everything you needed to know.
Enjoy!

The thing you said is correct but I recommend first start your phone without factory reseting @jelmerpeligrino becuase if u dont face any performance or other issues. But if u wish to factory then its still a good choice

Yes I told that in my second post.
Actually I believe he has been using Kitkat from a long time nd for most of the apps, the things have changed. The API differences creates certain problems as it is recommended by Samsung itself to factory reset the device after Android version change.
From Kitkat to Kitkat nd Lollipop to Lollipop factory reset is not needed but for SDK changing it is needed.

Galaxy Note 4 N910G Problem after trying to update phone stucks can't perform nothing

Hello. Here is my first post. So if sth is not clear tell me to add it.
I have a galaxy note 4 N910G. When the message for update came i accepted. The update was downloaded but then the problems started. Phone closed and didn't opened again. i waited for half an hour but nothing. So i searched on internet for what to do. I removed the battery and bla bla. The phone opened and the screen said Could not do normal boot. etc. When i go to perform a hard reset or soft reset it works but. The phone opens at the old version and it is really slow than ever. Also the phone after this can't perform a restart or if i shut it down i have to remove the battery and press the power button one minute and then i put the battery and it works but really really slow. When i hit on the settings for a reset the phone closes and don't open again. Also when i hit update software it says that failed to communicate to server try again when the phone is connected to a working wifi.
Flashing the stock rom again is not possible odin and kies report faults. Any ideas? How to have my phone back again? Maybe root the phone?
Thank you.

When you say the log what do you mean exactly?
I searched at the sit you suggested me. I started downloading one version
but my phone says it is from Singapore but there is no version for Singapore.
I started downloading N910G India. Is this ok?
I forgot to mention that someone maybe tried to root the phone but that failed.
Because this phone is not mine it's my cousin's i don't know what exactly happened.
Provided it is same biuld number like n910g it doesnt matrr
