Try firmware initialization under tools in Kies. You will probably get a pop up saying your phone is not compatible just close that out and hit tools, firmware initialization, then follow the instructions Kies gives you.

OK thanks, did as you suggested , kies downloads and decompresses the firmware but then kies just sticks o 0% and does nothing?

Well that stinks. Maybe another firmware for the F version or maybe as I have heard others say they need a new pit file but that is dangerous stuff there and shouldn't be messed with unless really necessary and I don't know where you could find one. Good luck.

I'm not sure, but i think you're on a newer bootloader and you flash back to an older firmware
so far as i know you can't downgrade!
Try searching newer stock firmware and try again!

I think you might be right, i flashed the newer bootloader and modem with the XNOTE rom, Where do i find the newer stock firmware?

You can look @ sammobile or ask google!...from where (location) is your old Firmware?

Its not branded. This could be a reason, I am downloading the XEO-Version (Poland) .. and I hope it would work.
Its not , as I understood, Possible to revert back to JB 4.3 now. right?

It worked on 4.4.2 Poland ROM. I did some search on the internet and they all confirm downgrading is not doable. Bad though since this New ROM is not as good as the 4.3 Ït did not add improtant features and it is not stable"

why it is giving error "sw rev check fail device 3 binary 2" ???
If i understand you correctly you want to downgrade from android 4.4.2 to 4.3. That is not possible with odin. You have to flash a custom rom via recovery with a clean install

How To Unroot/Unbrick Galaxy S6! [All Variants]

I created a step-by-step guide video to unroot/unbrick the Galaxy S6!
Grab all the files and other needed information here: http://www.androidrootz.com/2015/05/how-to-unroot-galaxy-s6-and-s6-edge.html
I was instaled official XEF 6.0.1 on my rooted device S6 edge. But after pass on odin and after reboot on screen information some about drk , check drk. A found solution for that some file must flashing with odin and I was doing that. After instal and reboot phon was booting i working butt still is rooted. I cant check for official update a when i power on my phone in left court is message kernel is not Seandroid enforcing.
How to solve that problem and have unrooted phone?
HELPPPP i cant unroot s6 edge
So i bought a rooted(with odin) s6 edge from a guy. It is lollipop and i want to update it to marshmallow via ota. My settings show that the model is G925f. And baseband g925fxxu3coi9. But the phone info tells me it is g925p which is usa sprint and gives a different baseband g925pvpu3bol1 and download mode also shows g925p. G925f is international. Atleast i think so. I downloaded my country(pakistan's) 3 firmwares and 1 of uk too of g925f. I also downloaded sprint usa firmware. I have tried flashing all of these through odin. All give fails. I got three types of fails: serial com port error, NAND write start fail on my country and uk firmware and that device 3 binary 2 fail on sprint firmware.
Please help me what should i do? Should i get the motherboard replaced?

I m trying to find it out.
P.C. I m new to developing so I m still learning.
BTW did u try to flash the lollipop update manually via Odin?
Did u get the modem file in that firmware? If yes then flash it too with Odin. This might work to get the ota update.

Try SamFirm program and see if there's any problem. I used updato once and didn't have any problems and I've used the program like 5-6 times before, without any problems neither.
You can also try to flash the file it extract. If it is really corrupted, the Odin flash should fail.

On sammobile / updato, you see the regions there, like SEB, DBT, ROM etc.
This is what you must type in SamFirm.

You'll see the android version once you check for firmware.
You can also fill the PDA and the others with the ones from a firmware 5.1.1 which you want.
