I am using the 531H in the US with Russian firmware (where I bought the phone) without problems. The firmware on mine is G531HXXU0AOH1 (just google it to find the download). BTW, English is included in it, so no problem there.
Hi
I have this Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM N910F). I am here in Pakistan. I purchased my Note 4 from UK and Its on EE. I was using it here and it got an Official OTA Update of Marshmallow which I installed. After a couple of days, my phone automatically got bricked. I contacted a local mobile repairing shop who dumped some other unbranded international firmware which changed its CSC too [CSC after updating unbranded firmware = (N910FOXX1COH1)]. The firmware was not working properly and had glitches.
Now i want to flash its stock EE Firmware which i have downloaded. I tried to flash it with ODIN but then i noticed that the CSC was changed so i tried to change the CSC by rooting the phone and for that i reboot the phone in Download Mode. The phone usually goes to black screen and does not start after proper power off and I need to soft reset it (By pulling the battery and draining battery charges) in order to turn it on everytime. After a couple of restarts in this way, the phone finally stopped to turn on. In download mode i had an error of "PIT File not found" while i tried to root it through ODIN. I tried to normal boot the phone but now it doesnt boot at all.
I need to boot it so that i may change my CSC to flash my stock firmware (please tell me if changing CSC would be necessary, Current CSC = N910FOXX1COH1,
Required CSC = N910FEVR1DPE1)
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Try to flash your EE rom with pit file for note 4 910f.

Thanks for the reply !
Is it necessary to change the csc to UK region before flashing the UK firmware ? My phone is not booting to download mode either right now. Earlier today it was booting infact i tried to exit from download mode 2 times by pulling the battery but every time it automatically reboot to download mode. That was the moment when i shut down the phone by pressing home + power and after that it doesnt turn on
UK firmware includes UK csc. Then you don't need to change it manually.
But if your phone won't turn on I don't know how to recover it. (try to Recharge your phone and then go to download mode. I think your battery is fully discharged. )
If you can able to access download mode, flash firmware with the pit file using Odin.

Hi, I recently became a Galaxy S6 Edge+ as a gift, which is stuck on the Samsung Logo (blinking). I am not new to flashing Firmware and Roms (came from the HTC HD2 and Dell Streak 5), but everything I do, I can not come through this. Now I need your help, since it's my first Samsung device. Maybe I have something forgotten?
My device:
SM-G928F with Regional Code AUT (free Switzerland firmware) --> Also Samsung Smart Switch shows me this AUT Version (but it wont recognize it, shows it after typing in the serial)
What have I done:
Samsung Smart Switch does not recognize it.
The last 24 hours I have downloaded the firmware through SamFirm 4 times, I have flashed the phone via Odin about 8 times, after the flashs I have wiped the cache and resettet data (full wipe) through the recovery. One time, the phone came to the android optimatization, but it was stuck on the last app (was 30 minutes on this), after reboot it was stuck on the Samsung logo.
Now I need your help. What can I do further? Do I missed something? Any ideas?
Something strange I noticed: When the phone is off and I plug it in to the wall, the battery drains. I have to put the phone to Download-Mode to charge it. Is it linked to the firmware problem? The charger is original Samsung.
So, I flashed TWRP, the Note7 Deodexed Rom and SkyHigh kernel, but it's the same... any sugestions?
I read about a pit file, what is that? May be this the solution?
What I did the last 3 houers was to test Smart Switch With the mac version, the rescue function did not work, the hole program crashed each time. On the windows version it suceed, but my phone is showing just the blinking Samsung logo. Every now and then it vibrates, but nothing happens, so I am at the start of the problem again. Any ideas?
Next update: I flashed the original firmware with a pit file 3 minutes ago. I learned a lot, learnt that the pit files are the partition-files. Now I'm hoping, that with the new partitions it will boot properly :good: . Stay tuned!
Still the same issue. Please help me
Whenever I start the Recovery, it says "installing system update" and then there is a dead Android, does this matter?
A 4 part firmware with pit file did not help. I downloaded another Firmware from another source, also the same. Now I will do a downgrade and look, if this helps. Pleeeeease, help me!
Infos from the download mode:
Produkt Name: SM-G928F
CA_Type: CA_3
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System status: Custom
Secure Download: Enabled
Know warrenty void: 1 (0x0203)
RP SWREV: B:3 K:0 S:1
Maybe the TWRP Log helps: There are errors in writing, is there something missing? It is the original firmware, with the newest TWRP and SuperSU installed. Still stuck on Samsung (animated) logo.
Listen do you have windows on ur mac i use parallels
but do you have windows anyhoe

Same here
Hello,
I'm quite new here, but not with flashing.
My son got an S6 Edge plus too, with almost the same problem.
I tried also almost anything, the last few days.
ADB sideload, Odin several versions.
It started out with FRP lock.
After I tried al I could find I think it bricked.
And now it is in the state as described above.
Only first screen and draining the battery if not in download mode.
And when I put it on USB cable it says: "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software."
But Smart Switch doesn't recognise the phone!
I can however get the phone in download mode by pushing vol. down, power and home and then vol up.
But in Odin only works: Pit, CP and CSC.
With AP and BL I get errors and fails.
Please help?
For me AP and BL works with Odin. I am a step furhter now. First I flashed with the option: Erase All Nand. Then I installed TWRP and a made a repair for the System and the Caches partitions. With SuperSU installed, and the caches wiped (manual, dalvik and normal caches), it says "Android is starting, Optimizing Apps" and then "Androis is starting, Starting Apps" on a blue screen and when it loads to the end, it is stuck there.
.You get only the first Samsung S6 Edge+ Screen? Then the system files are missing, there is no OS to start (flashed with AP in Odin). Your flash problem sound quite strange. Did you test another cable?
If you want to do it with Smart Switch, the phone should be in download mode. I also had to try it several times. Did you installed the drivers?
@ KatariaMax: I have Windows and Mac PCs, no Parallels. Does it work with Parallels?
So, one problem less. With the Audax rom and kernel, the phone charges normally (but not with Quickcharge), so I don't have to put the phone to download mode. But here is the same problem, after "starting apps" it is stuck. I will do a log from the install, maybe this helps.
@ HugoGroot: Maybe the second post could be the solution for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/s6-bricked-t3497687
I read about Sony devices, which are in a bootloop because of the battery. Could this be possible also for Samsung devices? I have bought a battery, just to be sure. Any other suggestions?
I found the problem here: https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z3-Compact/Continuous-Restart-and-Optimizing-Apps/td-p/1020656
I bought a note 3 off of ebay. It came rooted with a custom os. I tried to unroot it using the unroot feature on SuperSU and now it refuses to boot up. I get past the samsung screen and then the at&t circle starts and never finishes. I believe I should try and reinstall the old firmware to fix the problem. But since it has Android 6 on it i dont know if I should try android 4.4.4 or what I should do.
Did you confirm the model # in download mode? Do you see anything about Knox or warranty but on the download screen?
Download Samsung Kies onto your PC
Open the software
Go to "Tools" at the top
Click "Firmware upgrade and initialization"
Enter your model number (can be found underneath the battery. Then click OK
Enter your serial number (also under battery)
Click OK
Then follow the onscreen instructions
Hi Guys,
I purchased this used Note 5 K model yesterday. I wanted to update it's rom. I checked it. It was rooted but there was no TWRP.
When i connected to pc. It's was not recognized. I installed drivers. Changed 3 cables. But nothing.
I thought maybe i have to change USB debugging so it did it. With that i disabled OEM unlock option.
Now it's not even booting. There's a red text showing on top FRP Lock.
I've no idea what to do now. So confused.
Any help will be really appreciated.
Now it shows FRP Lock On.
Install the stock firmware (4 files) with odin https://sfirmware.com/ or maybe try to find it from androidfilehost.com
