Can you send me the exact
Sorry to bug u .............can send u me the exact i am confused

wouldickyCi
I tried below but my phone is struck at intital logo Samsung galaxy S4 screen its not turning on.
Install and run Chainfire's TRIANGLE AWAY (I9505 ONLY, I9500 is NOT SUPPORTED YET)
NOTE: There is an option "System modified workaround", please tick this and restart your phone. Device Status should be back to OFFICIAL!! Use it with caution!!
Next few steps are ONLY for people who couldn't reset it with Triangle Away...
1. Reboot into Download Mode and check if Binary & System are OFFICIAL.
2. Only if the BINARY Status is still Custom, download and extract OFFICIAL STATUS MOD(.tar.md5): GT-I9500 or GT-I9505 - open in Odin as PDA (password: djembey2013)
3. In some cases FACTORY DATA RESET (Phone Settings=>Accounts=>Backup & reset =>Factory Data Reset) is required to reset Device Status.

You probably just need to do a factory reset. If the Odin flash was successful, simply boot into recovery (volume up+home+power) delete user data. reboot.

not working
still struck on samething no progress after logo

need serious help
my phone is not working need urgent help

Why do you start messing with your phone when you have no idea what you are doing? Thats just dumb.
What are you doing with Triangle Away? Do you have any idea what it does?
Stop messing with your phone before you make it worse! Just chill and start reading the forums!
Tell us STEP BY STEP, what you did with your phone. Stop saying help my phone doesn't work. That's USELESS information! We need details.

Omega Pro had helped me
I tried to install Google android 4.3 (nexus) on my phone i was successful but i didnt like that as it disable all the samsung features(palm,autostay) i tried to remove that but i messed something here i tried reset in TWRP after that my phone didnt start it was struck on samsung logo.
I tried to install google 4.3 again and it worked i had installed Omega rom its working fine but i do see my phone is slow i am still thinking of going back to actual android 4.2.2 version if u can help that would be great.
Thanks all for ur help.

Download Samsung Kies,
Go to tools and click firmware upgrade and initialization
If you have 9505 type in Model: GT-I9505 If you have 9500 type in Model: GT-9500
Now it will ask your S/N Number. If you cannot boot to android then pull out the battery and there must be S/N Number (NOT Battery S/N)
If you can boot to android, then go to Settings, touch more then scroll down find and touch about device, then touch status, scroll down and see the serial number
type it in Kies
Then follow instruction from kies
you must boot to download mode first (you can do this with: turn off the device then press Volume Down + Home Button + Power Button and then if you release it and press volume up to continue it)

not working

Kies won't work because you have a custom rom installed.
Why dont you just flash a custom rom in the recovery?
1. Do a factory reset in recovery. Wipe system/data/cache.
2. Flash a custom rom.
3. Boot.
It's as simple as that.
Or do you want to flash a stock rom? If so, make sure you flash a knox disabled stock rom.

I'm sure you can get it running with odin. Download Odin ver 3.07. Download the stock mh6 firmware from sammobile.com. it's a zip file. Use 7-zip to extract the .tar.md5 file from it. Use that file in odin, PDA slot. Only have auto-reboot checked in Odin.

Here is a full tutorial for how to flash a rom with Odin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6VmIfXPWgs. Here is the link to the Dutch PHN NE2 (unbranded) rom https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0B6Ufgy16r712ODRMRFhheGZMZEk&export=download. Good luck mate
BTW: make sure to remove the battery first, wait 10-20 seconds, reinsert it and go into downloadmode and flash the rom with Odin 3.09.

sir is it true that only the stock firmware of my country will succeed on odin?
my phone is a dutch one the box also said The Netherlands..
The ones i tried were united kingdom.

Flashing a UK or German DBT rom shouldn`t be a problem. I flashed the German DBT cause they are updated quicker and more frequent then the Dutch firmware. I cannot post you the link because its not allowed but look for Firmwares on Sammobile.com and look for the SM-G900F German DBT rom.
IMPORTANT: disable Kies in windows task manager before you flash with Odin !!!!!

still fail
it failed again i dont know what im doing wrong.
Are you able to help me by using teamviewer so you can check if i did any wrong?
After downloading i extract the file into a map that i created on desktop.
Then i choose the file by pressing AP at odin then wait and start.
İs there any other option?

- Do you use a usb 2 or 3 cable? Usb 3 can be a problem sometimes as i read.
- Have you terminated Kies in windows task manager?
- Do you have the correct usb drivers installed? Does IDCOM light up and show you an COMx number if you connect the phone to the pc in the left upper corner of Odin?

it shows COM3 and its blue is that ok?

The party is allready over (post 9), problem solved

SOLVED: No service/null IMEI

hey guys,
I have a galaxy s5 g900f and just today i was playing around editing the messaging.apk, when i pushed the apk back into the system and rebooted everything was all fine. Then about ten minutes later my sim stopped working and i had no service whatsoever. I have spent all day flashing different roms, restoring my efs, and flashing different modems. I have checked to see if it is my sim card causing the problem but it is not. On top of all of this the phone reboots every time the screen locks and goes black, i suspect this has something to do with the sim card issue.
if any one is able to help me i would appreciate it so, so much.
thanks in advance.

Is your IMEI and Baseband still valid?
You may need to reflash full stock firmware.
Open Dialer and enter *#0011# and see what does it say?

Yes, looks like the baseband is invalid. You need to download the stock firmware and reflash.

Do not flash random firmware. You need the stock firmware for your device.
Open Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Firmware Browser' to download the stock firmware for your device (with the correct CSC).

i originally purchased this phone from ebay and it was from hong kong and the phone was hong kong branded. The firmware i downloaded and flashed was hong kong firmware, it was G900FZHU1ANI2. I assume this would be the correct firmware, but still, no luck???

Please note that HK phone does not compatible with another international firmwares.
You said "spent all day flashing different roms, restoring my efs, and flashing different modems"
So you may have messed up with the partition structure, due to flashing rom/firmware that are not compatible.
Now you may need PIT file from a 'good' HK phone to flash together with the HK firmware (G900FZHU1ANI2).

i did what you said to do with the pit file, but that did not work. Now i think i have found out what the problem is, i think my efs folder is corrupted, which seems to be irreversible. I have tried many of the different restoring methods on google but none of them have worked.
Any suggestions on what i could do?

Hello Everyone, i got a note 3 phone
SM-N9005 FCC ID: A3LSMN9005
SSN:- N9005GSMH
MADE IN VIETNAM BY SAMSUNG..
i bought this note 3 phone from UAE and it was with Kitkat 4.4.2 and when i was using it, some apps used to stop and not responding and get a pop-up message "System has stopped" or something like .com.system has stopped responding, also when i open some other apps the phone shuts down, so i turn it on, sometimes it works fine and sometimes it stops responding and shut down many times, so i had to make a full restore factory reset and still have the same problem, some guys told me you have problems with the rom, so i had to look for stock roms to it and found a lollipop rom under this name (AP_N9005XXUGBNL8_CL3643614_QB3415922_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar) and i installed samsung usb drivers just to make sure that everything is okay.
so when i started flashing it by odin it said Fail, so i tried once again but failed again, and i found my phone went to that black screen with (firmware upgrade encountered an issue, please select recovery mode in kies & try again), i couldn't get to my previous kitkat rom after that, but i'm able to go to download mode and recovery mode, so after this( brick) i had to search of how to unbrick it so after that i flashed philz as a recovery mode, and then flashed (All samsung recovery.tar) so then after flashing it, that message of (firmware upgrade encountered an issue, please select recovery mode in kies & try again) is gone, but i got another loop of restart each time i open the phone, it is not booting it is only taking me to the black start screen of android, and after a while it restarts itself.. and then when i tried to flash the same rom once again and connected my phone to my computer, drivers started configuring and so i waited to finish, but it failed it said (MTP USB Device Failed), though i still can see the phone connected over Odin in download mode.
so i had to look for another rom which is a kitkat stock version (N900TUVUCNB4_N900TTMBCNB4_N900TUVUCNB4_HOME.tar) which i found after downloading it and flashing it to my phone that it is for n900, which is normally failed flashing!.
so I don't know if i messed things up or not, and i really don't know what else or more to do ?
please give me your advice so i can restore this phone to its original stats.
Thank You!​

Are you sure the first firwmware you flashed is a full stock firmware?. What is the size?.
The second firmware you flashed isn't for n9005. Try different firmware specifially for UAE.

You have repartion ticked but without a pit file, so obviously it will fail.

Note 4 Verizon failing to update to Marshmallow

Hello everyone
Please bear me with me for I am a dinosaur that grew up with Symbian phones, then was forced to use Windows phones and now recently converted to Android, therefore not an expert in this field.
Bought the Note 4 off ebay in UK. Mobile banking app and Android Pay say my phone is rooted however Root Checker says it isn't . I have tried to update to Marshmallow through ODIN but I get the FAIL Auth error every time I try...
In settings the phone shows up as N910F however it is a N910V ... I do need help to figure out the precise model though just to make sure I am installing the correct software.
Also, I am using a Lebara SIM card (partners with Vodafone) here in UK, not sure if that matters.
Would really appreciate if someone would have the patience to guide me how to install Marshmallow on my phone, I just want a clean one and no rooting. Tried different tutorials on the internet but none worked for me or I am surely doing something wrong.
Many thanks in advance!
Andy

Hi Andy I'm also in the UK with note 4. To find out the correct model you need to boot to download mode. Power off the phone, Hold volume down + home + power together. It will boot to download mode and from there it will show you the model.
Post your correct model here and I will post the firmware with the correct steps to flash.

Hi Callum
In download mode it says N910V

Download and unzip the firmware. Place it in odin in AP. In odin options enable auto reboot and uncheck repartition. Put phone in download mode, connect to pc and start.

Thanks for the firmware , that worked like a charm. Is it possible to install a non-Verizon version on this phone? One that does not have the Verizon preloaded apps?
Also, do you know anything about the Note 4 getting the Nougat update?

You can only flash firmware for your device which is N910V. Which means unfortunately you can only flash verizon firmware. However you can root your phone and use titanium backup to remove the bloat.
As for the N update I have read and heard rumours that we will get it but I don't have my hopes up. Even though the Note 4 is 2 years old it's still a high end device. It hasn't been officially announced yet. Only been announced for s6/s7 and future releases

Hi Andy I'm also in the UK with note 4. To find out the correct model you need to boot to download mode. Power off the phone, Hold volume down + home + power together. It will boot to download mode and from there it will show you the model.
Post your correct model here and I will post the firmware with the correct steps to flash.

I got it from UAE but I'm currently in the Philippines. I don't think it is network locked.

1st download the firmware.
Download odin, latest version is fine but I use v3.10.6
On phone settings go to about device, tap build number 7 times until developer options is there, go on developer options and enable USB debugging.
Plug phone to pc to make sure drivers are up to date.
Once firmware is downloaded unzip it.
Power off phone and put into download mode, vol down + home + power.
Open odin and click AP, insert the firmware. Odin options should be, re partition UNCHECKED, auto reboot checked, f reset time checked.
Plug phone into pc, in odin log it will say added with blue box saying com:3 or similar.
Press start and it will flash and reboot. The first boot can loop a few times or hang on the Samsung logo for a little while it's normal.
If it hangs for more than 15 minutes remove the battery for a few minutes then power on again and it will boot.
If you get any errors or are unsure let me know.
