Alright, so I've been doing rooting things for a long time...and never have I had this many problems. I posted something here earlier about rooting my S4, installing ROMs and having it hang on the Samsung Galaxy S4 Screen. So I figured I would try booting with Odin and re-installing a stock image. No luck. I keep getting this show up on my Galaxy S4 when I click start -- "secure check failed" and Odin shows a fail.
I don't even know where to go from here because I'm looking at an expensive paperweight at this point. Has anyone ever seen this before or even know where I can start. Any help would really be appreciated...at this point I just feel defeated.

I believe I was using the correct firmware. I followed the instructions in the Q&A thread. I was NOT on MF3.
Hoping to get this figured out

I always get firmware from sammobile.com. Download the firmware ending in mdl. It'll be a zip file. Use 7-zip to extract the .tar.md5 file from it and use that in Odin.

I'll download the firmware there and see if that solves my issue. Is there any way this could be related to the kernel? If I restore this firmware I will lose my root, correct?

You will lose root. Odin should put everything back on like it was new. You do have to register on sammobile to download the firmware, but it's free.

If you want to flash a modem via ODiN you have to power off the phone completely and boot into download mode!! Power+Volume down, and
Using advanced/extended reboot menus or any other way to boot the phone directly from system to download mode will always end up in a failed flashing process - the modem will not be flashed!
!!! Always power off the phone before !!!

That was already done before posting on xda. Flashing ROMs did not help. Flashing recovery did not help. Flashing the new ROMs did not help. Relaxed stock firmware. I ME I still incorrect, but I am able to use the phone without issues.

At the moment, Grand 2 is not supported by Octopus/Z3x/SPT to repair your nvm or re-write the correct (and original) imei.
Maybe someone with advanced know about restore nvm can help you.
Sorry for my basic english

I have a 910H model want to flash 910C fw using odin. Just to see if it will unlock the LTE bands since they have identical Hardware including modem chip. Any advice will be appreciated.
Hard to say. Usually as long as you can get back to download mode for Odin you are okay. You wanting to flash a firmware that's not for your phone goes against the norm. So, do you feel lucky? lol

As long as the brick is not permanent. I am willing to be the guineapig if I can locate Odin flash-able files for both 910h and 910 c. If the hardware is truly identical as was mentioned then 910H should behave like 910C ala LTE . OTOH I may be screwed ..... so trying to figure out the probability of the later.

Oh my God... NO!!!!!!
It's not hard to say, it's very easy to say that one should NEVER flash a firmware that is not meant for the SPECIFIC MODEL they own.
NEVER.
Um, hi and welcome to xda! They do things like this on occasion.... Some flash to make phones work on other carriers. I didn't sign off on his flashing but am curious about the results!

Hi, I've been here a while...
People flash unbranded firmwares of the SAME model to get rid of carrier specific bloatware. NEVER a firmware meant for another model. But I can only speak on behalf of sane people.
If you're curious, flash your device and tell us all about it.

sometimes I will say bootloader mismatch... I wouldn't recommend using odin a firmware that isn't for ur phone, just flash a rom, and this way u can see if it will work,
I flashed both roms sweet and wanam from exynox 910c on my h variant everything work fine but under the baseband version in the about debice i have test1 and the lte doesnt work even though i have it in the network settings and in the service mode
Want to do this right, so thought i would ask before diving in.
found a new firmware update from sammobile.
got custom recovery, rooted, supersu and titanium.' backup.
if I flash via download mode and ODIN, will it wipe my phone?
how to do this right without loosing everything? just use titanium and backup system apps etc and give it a whirl?
It won't erase anything. But you will lose custom recovery and root. All apps will remain.
ah, excellent. then just rerootwith chainfire auto root and flash recovery again.. thanks..
Btw, I`m in norway. and noticed this release now, http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/41069/N910FXXU1ANK4_N910FTEN1ANK1_TEN.zip/
but it is more recent firmwares than this. would it be safe to flash a newer rom than this, f.ex an unbranded rom from italy etc? or would i be asking for trouble.?
You can flash newer from other regions with no problems.

I recommend flash the firmware related to the CSC (region code) of your device for avoid problems. You can install this app for know your CSC very easy and flash the latest firmware via ODIN for your note 4: HERE

Meant to reply and not to thank cause I don't agree with you. Csc is interchangeable.
As long as you don't try to downgrade and the firmware is for your specific model then no problems should arise. Been doing it for years with every samsung I have had since the original i9000. Don't know what you have done to come up with those problems.
The only way I see a problem is if you tried to flash a firmware that specifically was asking for a pit file to repartition and you didn't comply. Then yes, there I can agree.
And I'm always speaking of original firmwares.
Cheers

It is ok. Ty for your explanations but i still without agree with you :highfive:
Most of Europe uses the F model. Some countries import the C variant. If you flash the correct one for your model it won't cause you any problems. Doesn't matter if it's Italy's Germany's or any eu state just as long it is for the intended model. I don't know if it applies globally though.
If i set my phone info to original via wanam than i got software update, is it possible to update?

I coudn't install a firmware for a different CSC for my SM-N910H, it always fails at the end of odin flash, I am not the only one with this problem. I read somewhere that you can't install a ROM with a different CSC for some of Note 4 variants.
