[Q] Kies firmware download error - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

I'm using a Galaxy S4 sgh-i337m Canadian model. When I try to update my firmware through Kies, I get to the "Downloading file for firmware upgrade etc. etc." but every time it gets to 69% I get an error saying there was a problem trying to download the firmware, do you want to try again. I have tried again about 6 times. I've even uninstalled Kies and still get the same error. Is there any other way to get the update? It says SHG-I337M Ver.14.07.04.01
Thanks

You should be able to find the latest firmware on sammobile.com, that can be flashed with Odin.

[Q] Failed root recovery question

I just tried to root my SM-G900H using the auto root method unsuccessfully.
Odin failed after trying to write to cache, and now the phone says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."
I've tried using Kies to try and fix it with no luck.
Can anybody help me out here?

[Q] Cant flash back to my stock rom

My Note 4, SM-N910F was delivered with Nordic software (NEE). As Samsung are lazy and has not bothered to update the Swedish software i flashed the UK (BTU) software and rooted and have using it some weeks. Today I wanna go back to NEE software.
But when trying to flash it using Odin 3.10 it fails and says FAIL (Ext4) and and on the phone the error message is "Volume Size is too big 81920 < 20 4000 ODIN : invalid ext4 image
Have after that tried flashing diffrent firmwares for the SM-N910F but all fails with the same message. The only firmware I can flash is the BTU one. Anyone got a clue how to fix this?

What is the Android version of currently installed firmware (BTU)?
And what is the Android version of the firmwares your are attempting install?
And how did you flash the BTU on your device in the first time? With or without the PIT file?

The one currently installed is ANK4 and I have tried ANK5 and ANK6 firmware as well as the ANJ4, the one the phone was delivered with. But all but the ANK4 fails with the same message. And the bin size in Odin is all bigger for the ones that fails. The ANK4 is the smallest.
And I flashed it with Odin but with no PIT file as that is normally not needed and there are no one available.
Hello,
I've experienced the same issue as you flashing the UK O2 Lollipop version. I fixed it by first flashing the ROM until it comes up with the error message then reboot into download mode again and flash (All samsung recovery tar)
Not sure if I can post a link to the file!!
This worked for me. I hope it works for you too.
Regards

Hi, I have the same problem with O2 version. I don't quite understand how you fixed it? When the error message comes up in ODIN you unplugged the phone then put phone into download mode again and flash with "All Samsung recovery tar" Is this a separate file? Where did you get it?
Thanks
Paul

How do I unroot and reflash stock ROM onto AT&T G930A S7?

I am trying to unroot my phone. I have a US version of G930A. Sammobile has every county except the USA. I found G930AATT1APB5_User_Binary.zip which has AP_G930AUCU1APB5_CL7193387_QB8719495_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar, the BL, CP and CSC file in it. I try to flash it using Odin3, and I get an "odin protocol version error." I take it because the image is a lower version that's what's on there. I would like to download the latest stock image but sammobile doesn't offer images for the US? Or is there a better way?
Wrong forum. This here is for SM-G930F Development, not Q&A. You'll get the answers you're seeking and more, at the S7 AT&T Q&A and Dev forums. Mod, please move - thanks.
Wrong forum. But try using Kies in Download mode
That is what i do when ever i restore my phone.
No Kies good lord. This isn't a Note 2.
You're getting that error because you're on newer firmware than you're trying to flash so it's erroring out.
Follow the Return to stock procedure in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...sed-unroot-t3411039/post67605246#post67605246
Flash all 4 files, then you'll be on PF2 and able to get the OTA Update to PG1 with wifi calling, etc.
I tried using kies. It asks me for my model. I put in SM-G930A. The serial I put in all caps and it tells me my model number I entered is wrong.

Which Odin are you using?
You're flashing the PF2?
I've tried many versions of Odin v1 (not the 3). I'm not sure what the PF2 is.
To get it to work, I just defaulted the phone and rerooted it. It's the only way I can get it to work. It's working perfect right now. Only question is how long,

for g930a (galaxy s7 at&t NOT EDGE)
WARNING: YOU WILL LOSE ALL DATA MAKE A BACKUP
download these files:
Odin: http://www.mediafire.com/download/2t...din_3.12.3.rar
Flashing Files: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B17...w?usp=drivesdk
After downloading extract the .rar extract it then extract each, BL, AP, ect... files. Use the odin included in the download to flash and you will be returned to stock. If the odin included still gives you the error you can get the princecomsey version and see if that works from here: http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/tools/ODIN/ODIN-modified.zip
If odin freezes or crashes just restart it and try again, it might take a while foor the AP file to load into odin so just be patient and if it looks like it is about to crash wait about 2-3 minutes then force close it and try again.
Now you are returned to stock an all set !!
(p.s) - PF2 is the latest firmware as of now for the g930a, meaning when you flash this you will be all set. You may have tried to flash the original PF which is now outdated cause AT&T updated it, I did this and it worked but i could not update my phone so I flashed this one and it works perfectly and Samsung pay is up and running.

How to select a correct stock firmware for my G930P?

Hi~
After an unsuccessful root, I want to restore the original version fireware, so I flashed G930PVPS4APK1 firmware which I downloaded from sammobile. But when rebooting the phone, it prompts "customer", and I can't use OTA, there is an error message in "System Update": "Unable to update the software. A network or server error occurred. try again later."
Besides that, every thing is fine. It seems that I have flashed a wrong stock firware ? Could anyone please tell me how to fix this problem? Thanks!!!

Can not upgrade or install roms

I have Maximum OvrDrive 7.1 installed on my Note4 I've downloaded 6.0.1 firmware from sammobile, tried to flash via Odin, install different roms all with fails. Last night I noticed while trying to flash in Odin the screen on my phone says it's the model 910t3. In the settings it says 910t. I have not tried downloading the t3 versions from sammobile and was wondering if this is the problem. I'm at work now and can not test this theory and was hoping one of you could help so I can upgrade when I get home. Thanks in advance

Whatever it says in download mode is the correct model of your phone. Go by download mode not settings
