[HELP] Odin failed on XXUGNG4 firmware

Hi,
I encountered error during flashing of XXUGNG4 official firmware using odin 3.09. It did not completed successfully. I have tried to change usb port but still got the same error. I managed to flash the custom recovery and restore my previous rom backup but got a warning 'kernel is not seandroid enforcing' and when my phone boot my camera and sound (volume,etc) is not working.
Question: Can I flashed XXUGNG4 official firmware even if my custom rom is XXUGNG8? I really need to go back to stock official firmware in order to fix the problems I encountering on camera and sound
Really need your help...
Thanks

Hi,
You cannot flash an older version of your firmware without encountering problems.
You need to flash XXUGNG8 or later.

Don't forget to wipe data and cache before and after flashing the firmware

[Q] Bricked SM-G900W8 looking for partition file

Hello, I am relatively inexperienced when it comes to flashing and have managed to brick my s5(rogers(SM-G900W8)canadian). I have looked around and it seems as though in order to get my phone to work I need a pit file for my phone. Problem is, I can't find one. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. by the way I have rooted and enabled usb debugging prior to being bricked

so that should work?

Well that's the PIT file for your model phone, whether or not it unbricks it depends on what you did to brick it

I bricked it by attempting to flash philz touch recovery in odin 3.09 and it failed. Now I have the message:"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." on my phone, I tried doing exactly that but kies detects my phone but never finishes loading it up. So I tried flashing the stock firmware for my device model and got the same issue I did when attempting to flash the recovery. As far as i know I didn't do anything wrong as i was very careful to select the right files, etc. but clearly I did.

Well you've got nothing to lose by trying the PIT file
Not flashed PIT before so read up on exactly how to do it first, this is the thread I got the link for your phone from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2737448

Tried flashing the file and that failed as well... not looking too good.

I guess my phone's useless now.

Did you check the "Re-Partition" in ODIN?
Are you using the latest version of ODIN3 (3.10.6) ?
Try ODIN3 version 3.0.7 too
(Obviously) Got phone in download mode
Tried just flashing a stock ROM from sammobile
Tried flashing the stock ROM along with the PIT file & Stock ROM together?

tried it all, when trying to flash the pit file as well though it gives me "SECURE CHECK FAIL : PIT" on my phone. whenever I try to flash it it always fails at system.img.ext4 with Complete(Write) operation failed.

I think I know the issue now, I'm using VMware, which apparently doesn't work. Will try on a windows pc in a while. thanks

Ah right, yea always best from a native PC
Let us know if you get it working

It worked and then I installed the newest cyanogenmod.

Soft bricked GT-i9505, need help!

Stuck In bootloader

I was running Team ExyKings Pie rom. wanted to switch to nougat. But I can't flash through odin.
It gives error like
SW REV. CHECK FAIL (BOOTLOADER) DEVICE:3 BINARY: 2.
in red color. What can be the problem?
Please help fix this issue.
EDIT : I found the solution.

I'll tell the solution here so that everyone can fix this thing.
First thing to keep.in mind is that if you update your bootloader and kernel. Phone won't let you install the older version of bootloader. Which is one of the main reasons I couldn't switch back to stock nougat.
Just reboot your phone to bootloader and flash twrp recovery. Then flash a custom oreo or nougat rom. That's the only fix.
If you try and flash any nougat custom rom. There is a high probability that you won't be getting any reception out of it. As nougat uses old BL and CP.
Or you can simply download the latest oreo stock rom and flash through odin as it comes with latest bootloader and stuff.
Thanks for reading and being patient?

T380 Secure Check Fail Modem Binary 4

Alright, this is not my first rodeo, however, this is my first Secure fail. I made sure I downloaded the correct stock ROM for T380DXS4CUD3. I downloaded the Combination for Binary 4, It went in just fine. Returned to stock only to receive this message.
SECURE CHECK FAIL : Modem
I also downloaded the only other Binary 4 stock ROM for this model I could find, and still receive the same error.
I extracted modem.bin.lz4 from AP file and archived into TAR, odin PASS.
Still getting the error.
What do I need to do to repair this.

Has anyone else been able to figure out how to fix this?
