The lollipop update for the N910U in New Zealand this morning bricked my phone when I installed it this afternoon. I then went back to the latest 4.4.4 update and factory reset the phone and tried to install the 5.0.1 update again this time via ODIN, it got halfway through downloading the system.img before failing, so I reflashed the latest 4.4.4 update and tried again via Kies which also failed and this time when I try to reflash the 4.4.4 update it fails as well.
Now I'm currently trying a Software Update and Initialization via Kies, if it doesn't work what can I do?
EDIT: Changed to a different computer after trying all USB ports on my main one and it worked in ODIN.

When I had root and recovery an OTA Update came up like 2-3 days ago and I decided to update but I stuck at bootloop with TWRP but anyway I fixed my phone and flashed the kdz Stock Firmware. But now when everything is okay and I go to the Update Center there's no Kit Kat update on there and it says I'm with the latest OS.. I tried updating over PC Suite but when I try to search for an update it says It failed connecting to their servers and nothing happens.. Is there something I can do about?
Currently running G900FXXU1ANE2 on an EE branded S5. (Previously rooted with towel root and supesu)
keep getting notifications to update firmware but when I do it via OTA it comes up updated failed connect to kies (on PC) the problem being, I don't own a PC so that's not an option
I've tried installing mobile odin via the play store so I can install it manually,but when I try to open it, mobile odin just force closes. I've tried unrooting and re-rooting to see if that fixes the odin problem but to no avail.
Any suggestions on how to update via OTA/Odin without a PC or any other solutions?
Thanks

Well OTA`s can`t be installed if you are rooted and changed the system.
Hello guys! I am having issues trying to update my Verizon S5 to Lolipop. I had been previously rooted and since uninstalled safestrap and SuperSU. When I tried to update to lolipop, it would fail and not update at all. I factory reset my phone to see if that work. It didn't. Then I had remembered that I had uninstalled a ton of bloatware previously and I might have accidentally uninstalled something that the phone needs to update. So I hooked up my phone to my computer and tried to use odin and install the factory NK2 firmware. I put my phone in download mode and it did start downloading but it didn't flash it at all and just rebooted. What should I do?
Thanks.

The firmware isn't what you should use by itself. Try flashing an nk2 stock tar, factory reset from recovery after flashing, and then try updating.
Hello,
I had not updated the ROM on my phone in quite some time so I recently decided to update everything. I flashed an updated modem thru ODIN and then updated to some Android 5.0.1 and 5.1 roms.
I ended up having some odd reboot issues so I decided I would flash completely stock rom and go from there. I downloaded the most recent stock rom for my phone from SamMobile and flashed it thru ODIN. ODIN says passed and everything looks to have worked.
The problem is my phone will start and boot up to the point where I set up Android (choosing language etc) and then the phone reboots. This happens everytime.
Any advice or suggestions? I thought flashing stock would fix my issue!
UPDATE:
I flashed Stock thru ODIN again and it seems to be working now. I will update the post again if anything changes!
Hey Guys,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G530H, the updater asked me to update the Android into Lollipop from its original firmware Kitkat 4.4.4. After finished installing, it started bootloop, it wouldn't boot to the Android. I tried to search from many sources, to fix my phone, and I found some thread that I must to reflash the firmware because they said it's corrupted. After that, I downloaded Odin, the firmware (Android Lollipop) and flash it. It still can't boot to the Android. I tried to flash to Kitkat and it seems that the Odin was failed to flash the firmware. I can't find the CSC and PDA code from the phone because I can't boot into Android. I also tried Kies and SmartSwitch to initialize my phone, but it didn't work.
What should I do now???
