NO one fix this problem

Original firmware would restore the stock kernel. Are you sure you're flashing the correct firmware? Flash a 4.3 firmware, not 4.2.2 (via Odin)

[Q] Root sm-g900h

Hello Friends
I just rooted my new galaxy s5, the sm-g900h version with the corresponding root. But it software bricked my phone. Now I have the "phone-triangle-pc" screen. I had all my galaxy rooted before. So I am not a totally beginner. I tried also to redo this process but didn't work. What can I do now? Please help. Thanks a lot

It looks very much alike. I haven't done anything different from other times I rooted. But then again: How do I fix it?? There is no firmware available yet.

there are firmwares here:

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SM-G900H&pcode=TPA#firmware
let me know if flashing a firmware fix it please.

I just rooted my international Exynos SM-G900H using the corresponding cf-root on the main page.
The device and odin was freezing midway through the process on V3.07... i then removed the battery and reinserted it and used Odin V1.85.. Worked like a charm !!

Wow that sucks.
Just got your S5 and now it's bricked.
I always recommend waiting for others to try first

Galaxy S series devices have never bricked for me... they can't IMHO
The phone to pc connection icon that we mistake for a brick is simple to fix.. just remove the battery... wait for 5 seconds, reinsert it and enter Download mode again ( Vol down + Home + Power )

Actually, it's not bricked. Just go here https://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-G900H
1. Download your version
2. use Odin version 3.07 http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...EoeWTffM5YAXb2mm1xQGkpQ&bvm=bv.64542518,d.b2U
3. Make sure auto reboot and F.time reset checked, UNCHECK re-partition
4. Welcome back G900H.
Hope that helps!

To end this thread: I finally found the firmware without provider (Argentina) flashed it and started root again, and it worked!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In the process my S5 was usb debugged but I rooted without chip. Now I introduced the chip and it worked (don't know why). Thanks to you all.

i just rooted my sm-g900h with success of rooting ^_^

Help please
I have a Latin American 900H galaxy s5. Every time I try to use the CF-ROOT method, it locks on the cache when I use ODIN. However, I reboot into download and can reflash the original rom. Any ideas why it keeps stopping/freezing at that point?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

How you did it?
Where I can download that file?

Odin 3.09 is the right software?
And do I have to make a factory reset before trying ?
And do it without Sim card and SD card?

[Q] Rogers i337m - No Wifi after multiple flashes. Newbie :(

Hi All,
I tried unsuccessfully to root my i337M from Rogers (Canada). After multiple tries using Odin and finally trying to return it to stock, I now have no wifi (won't turn on) nor any sound.
I assume that the modem (fw) is not the same now after multiple flashing as the ROM that I flashed. I have been searching and have not found a way to remedy the situation.
Is there anyone who can refer me to the exact steps that I need to take in my situation?
Thanks in advance
Larry

Can you boot it into Recovery mode? If so do a factory reset and see if that cures it. If not, grab official files from sammobile.Then use Odin to flash it ( I have the same phone with Fido )http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SGH-I337M/RWC/
Then see how it works as that should fix it regardless
---------- Post added at 04:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 AM ----------
Then use TowelRoot to root it ( one click and no Knox 0x1 problems )

Thanks Harry,
I did it, thanks. I'm selling the S4 and was worried I semi-bricked it
Thanks again,
Larry

Looking to go back to stock Rogers as well... I downloaded an NI2 firmware from SamMobile and flashed with ODIN. Now I have no WIFI (can't enable it), and I see this is pretty common and will be trying a few things. However the fix for this seems to vary for everyone.
I am downloading an MK6 firmware now as this is what I think was on there when I bought it a long time ago and will try that. Is there a confirmed fix for this?

I found flashing another kernel did the trick, I flashed talexop and it works perfectly now.

[Q] Kernel is not seandroid enforcing

Hi guys,
Sorry I have some major troubles currently, I haven't done any updating or changing roms in awhile since I got this phone so two years ago. Realized I needed to update it as my battery was draining super fast and my phone is slow as hell.
Model # - SM-N9005
Android version - 4.3
Kernel version - 3.4.0-2061029
Trying to flash the omega rom v25.1 with lollipop
This was the steps I used to flash if it helps make the process any easier
-used galaxynote3root method of using CWM to wipe data and then install the zip file
-tried both omega kernel and stock kernel
-After installation and it reboots to the samsung logo with the
Kernel is not seandroid enforcing
set warranty bit: kernel
-I have tried rebooting it however it stays on the seandroid screen
-I have also tried reflashing it multiple times and it eventually got to the samsung logo screen without the kernel is not seandroid msg however it stays on that screen
Any help in direction would be great, also if any links on the instructions would be greatly appreciated, thank you very much in advance.

It says it needs kitkat bootloader to work. Yours still at jb. Just upgrade to official kitkat or lollipop unless you really need a custom rom.

Thank you for the reply, sorry but I'm not sure what the correct process on how to upgrade to official kitkat or lollipop. Do I have to unroot and then install the the kitkat or lollipop?

Pit file is not to be flashed unnecessarily. But too late now. Take a look here.

Even it's a leaked firmware it has a pit file to flashed together.

Do you remember your phone csc?. You were trying to flash different size of partition firmware that's why it gave you ext4 size error. I'm driving now so can't google too much. Have you flashed the 16gb pit earlier?.

Oh wait, I was just reading the instructions again, since mine is a 16gb I should just flash it without the pit file but include the ap/BL/csc/cp? ****, earlier I did include the pit file...Btw thanks for helping much appreciated.
Nevermind,, I tried flashing the rom without the Pit file and it still said PIT fail : total sectors (30777344)

If yours is 16gb of course it failed. You were trying to flash firmware for 32gb phone.
Find a HongKong firmware & try again. And try with Kit Kat first.
