Yes that possible as long as its G900F firmware. Just flash it with Odin 3.09.

Oke, just do the following:
- Disable Kies in windows task manager
- Pull the battery and wait 20 seconds
- Boot into downloadmode and connect to the pc
- Untick Auto Reboot in Odin 3.09 and place the rom in AP
- Hit start and when done pull the battery
- Boot into recovery and data factory reset and boot.

Do you have Teamviewer on your pc, i can help you from here if you want that. If so install TeamViewer and let me know.
This method never fails actualy:
Have you disabled Kies in windows task manager?
- Pull the battery, wait 20 seconds and boot in to downloadmode
- Place the .md5 file in AP, connect the phone with usb and untick Auto Reboot in Odin 3.09
- Flash the rom, pull the battery, boot into recovery and factory reset and wipe cache
- Reboot.

If you bought yours from a reputable seller, you don't have to worry about this but there are some fake galaxy s5 around. There are some differences that you can observe.
Hopefully this is not the case with yours.

Well I bought it from amazon. It seemed legit and it looks legit for the most part except the sticker on the inside behind the battery where it says g900f is in Chinese and I heard its not supposed to be.
And I teamviewed with gee , he made sure everything in Odin was set up correctly. It was, we thought maybe the file was corrupt so I download it again from another source and it didn't help.
Any ideas on how I can fix this assuming it is not. Fake?

Save yourself from the Kies agony and flash the rom with Odin bro, takes about 5-10 minutes and you`re done. Better than asking and posting questions for days or weeks. Just my 2 cents

Hi,
I installed Cgen mod onto my phone, Reverted back to 4.3 firmware for Vodafone NZ from Sammobile. Used Odin, Now it is stuck at the Samsung glowing logo. So apparently a soft brick. Now i cant seem to fix it with the keis tutorials, I cant seem to get any NZ firmware. This phone was bought from a Vodafone NZ shop.. I need the firmware to flash to the phone with Odin. I have not found any that will work.
Can someone link me some firmware that will work?
Model: GT-I9505
SSN:I9505GSMH
Please can someone help, I need the phone for work tomorrow to make it even more of a mission.
Cheers

If you've flashed the firmware with Odin it should be installed. Did Odin say pass at the end of the installation? If yes, pull out the battery. Then pull in again and start in recovery. ( Vol up + Home + Power) in recovery make a factory reset. (Wipe cache, dalvik cache and data).

In Odin you should see succeeded 1 or 3 and failed 0.
If it doesn't help do the flash process one more time and untick auto reboot. Start the phone manual then:good:
Maybe the firmware download was corrupt. In this case, download the firmware again

i didnt do a TWRP or custom recovery btw.

fffft said:
That didn't work out so well, did it? That is why we should always make a backup.. that we can restore if things go wrong.
If you can't replace the items that you deleted, then you need to use Odin ( or Kies would probably work too) to reinstall a full stock firmware to fix your system. A factory reset only reverts user settings, it does not restore crucial system apps that have been deleted. Reinstalling the full firmware will replace the missing apps.

Sure.
1. You can restore a backup if you made one.
2. You can replace the system apps that you deleted if you retained copies of them.

My phone just suddenly stopped working earlier today.it was running the latest omega rom with the latest modem and boot loader. ...
I cant get into recovery either. When I try it just reboots and goes to the samsung boot screen.my phone is a sim free insurance replacement and im not sure what stock rom to flash...
Could some nice soul just tell me the exact rom thats needed.
Its a uk based I9505 .
Please some one help as im away from home atm and have no way of contacting anyone.i have laptop and a dongle so can at least download and flash.
What ever has happened has corrupted it somehow.
I can still get into download mode how ever.
Id be eternally grateful if there is some nice soul to.help me
Just download and flash this with the latest Odin. Boot in download mode.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=33356
This is the latest German FW that Omega is based. It has the "OXA" Multi-CSC, which also includes BTU (United Kingdom)
After flash you will not have any problem retrieving all your data, as long as you don't factory reset.

If it remains on the Samsung boot logo, then try to flash the same firmware with the .pit file and "Re-Partition" flag checked in Odin.
If still doesn't boot, then you have to enter recovery mode to wipe data/factory reset the device

Thanks again
placing a specific pit fit got me pass map and now gets stuck at hlo bin.. I think the downgrade firmware changed something cause windows sees phone as device called msm8960 . Odin sees it as far as a com port but beyond that its not a 910v anymore

Try this method if your bootloader is unlocked or you got developer edition n910v.
Flash twrp in odin
Make complete wipe 3× 3 times
(dalvik cache/data/cache/system/internal storage)
After wipe go to download mode
Close odin and open again as (run as administrator)& upload firmware (AP)
Hit start Flash firmware
After flash firmware DONT LET THE PHONE BOOT
go to recovery
Wile cache & data factory reset
Reboot & wait 5 to 10 minutes.
Report back

I had same issue, fail on all firmware (Verizon Note 4), changed usb cord, flashed back to stock and was even able to downgrade (5.0.1).
Pls help me out guys.....my two weeks old samsung note 4 is stock on Software Update Failed
Your device didnt update successfully. Use the Verizon Software Repair Assistant on a computer to repair your device and complete the update.
My phone details:
Model: SM-N910V
SKU: SMN910VZKE
Thanks.

A 910F with a Verizon mobo?
Might be tricky to flash.
You can access download mode?
Tried different cables / USB ports?
I really doubt that you can flash stock ROM from SD when phone is boot looping.
Maybe with terminal but you would have to flash TWRP for that first.
