HI Guys,
I flashed the Lollipop 5.0.1 CHN firmware and rooted the phone to install the Google apps, then when the India Firmware came i tried to flash that via Odin, it failed. and bricked the phone, could get into download mode but all firmware i've tried fails.
i tried numerous thing to a point where i can now only get CWM- recovery or TWRP open recovery on the phone, and then it allows me to get back into download mode with swver A3, but Odin still fails almost immediately.
help would be much appreciated
regards
Brendan

So this means you can into Download Mode which is quite a good thing.
Now what you do is download the particular Kies for S4 from the OEM site and connect it when your phone is in Download or that wierd Yellow Triangle with the sign to connect to PC, and then kies will try to save ur phone.

Odin completed success fully, but now phone just hangs just after it askes to select the OS language ps. i used the lollipop india rom with the pit in the mentioned post
install a custom recovery using odin like philztouch and do a full wipe to install new rom
will i need a new PIT file?, after full wipe just Odin and lollipop 5.0.1 as normal?

Hi guys
Sorry this is my first post and it will be a bit long but I've searched everywhere, absolutely everywhere with no luck at all.
So tonight I originally tried to update my MODEM to a Telstra one, and I flashed it via ODIN.
The ODIN flash failed and I stupidly pulled the phone out, and it gave me the dreaded
PHONE-----YELLOW TRIANGLE----- COMPUTER
'Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
I tried flashing a 4.3 KNOX stock rom later on (I realised it was a big mistake), that failed in ODIN as well
I have also tried re-partitioning with a PIT file as well via ODIN but it doesn't really help
ODIN keeps hanging on the "system" flashing command and goes to a red "fail". It won't start flashing "system.ext4.... etc"
I've tried all versions of ODIN and all version of 4.3
I can't use any 4.2.2 roms as the phone only seems to accept 4.3 stock roms now.
I've also tried KIES, but KIES will not recognise my phone, and ODIN hangs at 'system.ext4...' (can't remember, something similar, definitely said system)
So I have a completely bricked phone now... I can only get into TEAMWIN recovery but it won't connect to USB at all.
I absolutely can't flash anything with it failing in ODIN and KIES won't recognise my phone. I've put it in 'download mode' as well..
I've also tried flashing roms through TEAMWIN/CWM recovery but it instantly fails.
Are there any options open to me? I'm really scared that I have an expensive paperweight....

Try another usb port (recommended: back of the computer)
and flash again via Odin stock base rom 4.3
P.S: I was getting the similar problem you have. another usb port helped me

Thanks Yeah I've tried that, I've tried front, back, on a laptop, but Odin still red fails at the writing 'System' (the largest 'chunk' of the tar.md5 file) no matter which 4.3 rom I try
I so upset :crying:

Hello,
For my part, I also encountered problems! the only rom that is passed via ODIN after testing 5 other is:
I9505XXUAMDF_I9505PHNAMD8_PHN
But if Knox! possible that this does not happen either?
*************
For me I do:
1 - Flash with Odin Pit
2 - Flash with ODIN last recovery philz_touch_5.15.8-i9505.zip
3 - Wip full recovery for new rom
4 - Flash the I9505XXUAMDF_I9505PHNAMD8_PHN
And then this happened.

I thought with the official 4.3 new bootloader, we cant downgrade to 4.2.2.
Try another Odin version or extract the .tar file via Winrar (rename it from .tar.md5 to .tar if your file ending at .tar.md5) and flash the system.img.ext4 via this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2333807 see if you getting error with this tool while flashing the system.img.ext4
and then try to flash again with odin
P.S. While flashing via Odin kill in Task Manager Kies and related process and flash again

Hey Bordo
Thankyou so much for your suggestion - I will try the individual component flasher later tonight and then write back on what happens
I will also remember to kill Kies with task manager beforehand, before using ODIN or any other flasher :good:
Thankyou so much for your time and effort in trying to help!!!! Much appreciated

@BlackMonkey It happened to me several times. What I had to do: flashed the stock ANE2 rom from sammobile (it allows to download for free, but it is slow). Flashed the BL and CP from ANE2 (I don't remember where I found it but it was on google. Actually, you should try the next step first, as I am not sure that it is required). Rebooted in recovery mode. Wiped cache. Rebooted. Root with towelroot. Install mobile odin. Flashed rom with option everroot. And you got lollipop in knox 0x0. Once in lollipop, mobile odin as failed each time for me, the same as you describe. It could be an issue with rom that use AROMA which are not supported. I had to use flashfire which works great.
ps : i did that as I wanted to keep knox 0x0. If you don't, you should install TWRP.

Thank you for your answer. I alredy did exactly this because i wanted to use again my phone and didnt see other solution. I hoped for a solution without a factory reset but it was necessary. Lost some picture and messages and have work for some hours So at that point be warned:
DON'T USE MOBILE ODIN WITH LOLLIPOP!!!
The problem is MOP doesn't support Lollipop.
So if u want to save data flash via odin the same rom but stock.
So I have a galaxys s5 g900f which i cleared it from a rom i used before and got it back to the original form of it. Got the .tar.md5 file of the official galaxy software from sammobile and installed it with odin. After that I wanted to root my phone again and stick with the official software. I tried to do that by the way I always used to with CF-Auto-Root using Odin once more and after downloading the file my phone was normally rebooting to recovery but it actually got stuck there without doing anything. Tried to flash twrp too but still nothing. The only thing i can flash at the time is the official software. Anyone had this issue before and can help? Thanks in advance
Flash the stock ROM again and get your phone back up and working properly
Then use this guide to root / twrp

Hey there!
So it seem like I bricked a friends A510F
Wifi, bluetooth, mobile data all weren't working properly and there were some minor difficulties with performance so we decided to install AOSP...
All her data is secured so I seached for a good ROM and tried to install TWRP from here. Installing via Odin sadly failed so now I have device without Android, only OdinMode is working, but all attempts to install either twrp for a custom ROM or Samsung original firmware failed...
Any clues what I'm doing wrong? Haven't done a Samsung device so far...
All suggestions welcome
yanness
Download repair firmware from xda and flash it through odin.it will probably work!

What happens when the phone is turned on? Does it get stuck in boot logo and stays like that? Try flashing stock bootloader. Also give details on which firmware u were on. What error do u get in odin?
Hello Sirs,
Please, can anybody help me? It is very weird what is happening!
After to go and download the original firmware in Sammobile, I used odin to install a stock rom! Odin is OK (process completed) but when it is trying to start, the logo samsung is blocked (bootloader). I have tried to modify the hidden.img to hidden.img.tar and I have use Odin but nothing looks like to work. Can anybody help me?
Thanks so much in advance!
Additional info: The device has not been rooted, etc.
hey i use a galaxy a510F currently and evertime i get FRP locked, software deleted, broken rom or twrp, my final solution is to odin flash a PERFECTLY WORKING STOCK ROM (which i had to try downloading from 3 or 4 different sites) and then i'd flash twrp ( official ) and restore one of by backups if needed. last time i had to flash because i hot frp locked tring out a new rom. i flashed over a stock rom and i got my phone working surprisingly without even losing my apps.
file i used is:" INS-A510FXXU8CSF1-20190710103917.zip"
pm me if u need a link (its in my drive)
