I have a tmobile galaxy s5 with the lollipop update. I bricked it.
I downloaded several stock roms and none of them contain the param.lfs file. You can backup yours with adb. It most likely must be from a tmobile variant. Someone please help. If you are on a rooted touchwiz lollipop rom, I need your help to backup the param.lfs. It's not on the filesystem.

I think the boot image is not in param anymore.
I tried on my Note 3 and param partition was empty 10MB

Okay.
So I'm very new to all this, but I managed to get safestrap (3.75) working on my Galaxy note 3 (AT&T) and attempted to install a custom rom. However, in my ignorance I somehow managed to screw something up majorly and cannot restore to my stock rom nor can I seem to use the method in the guide that involved Odin and Heimdal to do so. Using safestrap I am able to enter download mode and still create ROM slots, however I have noticed system errors when I do so. Most confusing of all however, when I use safestrap to check the stock rom and why I cannot copy system files to it, it says that there is a system partition size of 0. I would appreciate any advice on where to go from here.
If this is actually very simple to solve, please forgive me.
Can one of the people who have a samsung galaxy tab 4 (8.0) 5.1.1 SM-T337A (ROOTED) go out of their way and make a dump file including modem.bin, NON-HLOS.bin, recovery.img, a cache dump, and the PIT file PLEASE
can someone with a [ROOTED] [Lollipop]Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 (8.0) 5.1.1 SM-337A to get out of their way and make a system dump with at least these files: modem.bin, NON-HLOS.bin, recovery.img, a cache dump, and the PIT file. If not just a system dump would be fine too.
This is for thisisapoorusernamechoice to make a 5.1.1 Odin firmware file, much thanks to him!!!

Hi, Just in case...and I belive this is the first chase on the world
I Lost EFS file, no backup, I root the phone early by Magisk, and update by OTA and my binary update from U1 to U2. And I got Bootloop, flash by odin and accidentaly I tick the erase partition.
Now my phone just bricked by samsung logo...Now I Lost my partition. The only way to fix my phone is by flash the ENG EFS, ENG MODEM, ENG SBOOT, etc with U2 Binary.
Anyone here understand my problem, situation and have these file?...please
Flash with stock firmware+PIT File and file combination+PIT File still Useless.
My device is Samsung SM-M307F...
Best Regard From Indonesia...?
https://www.needromarab.com/7574/FAC-FA90-M307FXXU2ASK2 here is the combination file , also you could try to extract modem from the firmware and flash it using HalabTech tool.
Here is a long story. Please read carefully before reply.
I have SM-G955N which is for South Korea. Also I have latest stock firmware that can be flashed with Odin. It has AP, BL, CP, CSC. With this firmware, I can recover from almost every problems(including bootloop) because these files have everything that my S8+ should have, even PIT file.
As you know, modifying stock firmware is very dangerous and you don't know what would happen if you delete/modify certain file.
You might think 'Hmm... I think it is completely not related to system or samsung so maybe I can delete this' but you can get bootlooped. I even got bootlooped by only deleting DioDict which is just dictionary app!
I think It would be much easier to recover from bootloop when I have flashable ZIP file that is pure stock firmware.
Maybe you can say 'Just use TWRP backup feature!' but I can't trust TWRP backup feature now.
When I flashed stock firmware with Odin and right after(after solving KG State thing), flashed TWRP. Then I should have pure, clean stock firmware because I didn't touch anything about system except recovery(TWRP), right? I backupped whole system except Cache because It has 0 MB size.
After I got bootloop while modifying system, I restored that backup but still got bootlooped. That's why I can't use TWRP backup as fallback plan. I can't trust it 100%.
There are few 'Kitchen' scripts but I think they only handle AP files. When I tried to use SuperR's Kitchen Free, I used stock firmware file(tar.md5) and didn't do any modification. After I made flashable ZIP file with it and flashed it with TWRP, I've got bootlooped because It didn't have critical CSC files that system needed.
I think the Kitchen can't handle CSC well even though It is critical. 'Donate' would be last resort.
I've found batch script that convert S9 stock firmware to flashable ZIP (at GItHub, 'harise100/S9-Stock-ROM-TWRP') but I don't think It can cover S8+ files. In the scripts, it requires some files that S8+ firmware don't have. Maybe I should play with that script to fit with S8+ but It will take a lot of time which I don't have much.
Any good idea or information about converting stock firmware to flashable ZIP file?
