Help Bricked?? my verizon s5 ! (aboot) fused 2 > 1 - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was trying to download my Verizon Galaxy S5 and got it stuck somewhere...
Now all i get when i connect anything to phone or try to boot it (into any mode is the "Software Update Failed screen. The text it displays is,
"ODIN MODE

I've tried reading instructions on what to do for this on other threads and I can't make much sense of it. I don't know what files I should download for my device (specifically on this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784880)
Did I completely screw up my phone?
Can anybody help me get my phone back?

Been trying all night to find a solution to the same problem. My nephew did the same thing to his phone. I don't own an s5 but have gotten pretty familiar in the past several hours. We tried flashing the pit file and that at least got us a Samsung splash screen and into the stock recovery. Was never able to find anything else that would successfully flash in Odin. My guess is he was on the latest ota and didn't see the part where it won't work until he tried it. Any way, I saw someone fixed this issue on an att s5 by flashing three other tar files in Odin. Couldn't find those same files for Verizon last night. Was up till 3:00 am fighting this phone. I will let you know if it works when we get our hands on the files. And if you fix it first, please let me know.

Fixed!!!
I just fixed it!
All I had to do was to flash only the .pit I got off of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784880

How do you flash only the pit file? I'm also having the exact same issue.

Can you get into download mode? If you can, then use Odin to flash the pit file.

Yeah, I'm able to get into download mode, but unfortunately flashing the .pit file didn't resolve my issue.

[HELP] SM-N9005 LTE 32Gb Hard-bricked (SD: partial solution - mmc_read failed)

I've been reading many threads over the last 3 days, and I can't get back my SM-N9005 LTE 32Gb.
My N9005 (Portuguese TPH) bricked doing a firmware update from 4.4.2 N9005XXUGNG1 (Portuguese TPH) to 5.0 Lollipop N9005XXUGBOB6 (Poland XEO) with Odin 3.09. Odin said success (PASS), but phone never rebooted.
Solution #1: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2531224 Thanks @msmercy42 I learned a lot from it but none of the N9005 unbrick.img worked for me.
Solution #2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2625332 Thanks @ValenteL finally my N9005 goes into ODIN/Download mode.
However, I belive that solution #2 isn't going as smooth as it should. This is what I get when I get the phone to start from SD card:
Code:
[COLOR="Lime"]BOOT RECOVERY MODE[/COLOR]
CHECK BOOT PARTITIONS. .
COPY FROM T-FLASH. .
BOOT RECOVERY. .
WRITE 163840 sectors. .
[COLOR="Red"]FLASH WRITE FAILURE[/COLOR]

WRITE PROTECTION: Enable[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Red"]UDC START[/COLOR]
And then, Odin recognizes the phone.
Now I'm able to get Odin to recognize the phone, but I can't do anything with it. I've tried:
- flashing 4.4.2 N9005XXUGNG1 (Portuguese TPH) again - FAIL (see attachments) Phone outputs two lines, after UDC START:
Code:

WRITE PROTECTION: Enable[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Red"]UDC START[/COLOR]
MMC: mmc_read fail
I wasn't able to get any unbrick.img from a N9005 Lollipop yet. Is this the final solution for my problem? Since I'm able to get to odin mode, shouldn't this unbrick be enough? What does it mean "mmc_read fail"?? Any help?!?! I don't know what else to do...
Thanks!!

I think you are actually doing everything correct, the reason is probably due to a corrupted MMC chip unfortunately.
That also explains why it failed during your first firmware update.

:/
No solution then?...
how should I solve this problem then? new motherboard? new MMC chip? ...
Assuming the chip is gone, is there anything else I can try before going to hardware repair?
Thanks for your response...
Is there any developer that can help me?
I'm also willing on trying to use a 5.0 PIT file or a 5.0 unbrick.img if someone can manage to get me one...

AFAIK Lollipop ROMs boot on KK bootloaders, so that shouldn't be the problem.
Have you tried just to do a factory reset and see if anything happens?
If it doesn't work, what about installing a custom recovery from DL mode?
If that works try flashing a small AOSP rom.
EDIT:
Yes, if the MMC is corrupted, a new motherboard will be needed, unless ofcourse it's possible to do any HW repairs.

Can't get to recovery, so no factory reset for me...
I was wondering about installing a custom rom recovery from odin on last resort... I'm still hopeful for the miracle of unbrick.img from a 5.0 to work. Than I'll call my Note 3 by "Fenix 3" instead...

There is no stock recovery when you try enter?
If I were you, I would try to install TWRP recovery through Odin, then install a custom AOSP ROM.
If that works you can try test the MMC with software.

I see, sorry about your phone. Does indeed seem like you have a dead MMC chip.
:/ thanks for your kind help anyway...
Should I expect someone else to confirm this, get a 5.0 PIT, maybe a 5.0 unbrick.img for the microSD card trick, or are you 100% sure of that and I should stop pursuing the utopia of getting my phone unbricked?

I would probably not give up either, you can say there is no harm in trying what there is to try.
Using a debrick.img from a 5.0 Android should not make a difference, but if you can find one, why not give it a try?
I have found 2 pit files you might try, AFAIK they are both recent:
http://www.4shared.com/get/lrO_9qAoce/CSB_signed_HLTE_EUR_OPEN_32G_0.html
https://hostr.co/ndxkZa6KqRTF
You can also try use the "Nand erase all" feature in Odin 3.09, but I think I've read somewhere that it requires you to have a backup of your EFS to restore properly.

I belive I've already tried the first one. I'm downloading them right now. ´
Can you explain further on about "Nand erase all" feature? I don't really know nothing about it, but I confess I'm a scared to use it.
EDIT: Both failed. "Re-Partition operation failed."

Appareantly the "Nand erase alle" setting formats the MMC, but that means you have to have a backup of EFS, else you cannot restore your IMEI... Thats what I think it was about. Sorry, about the pits, that was all I got.
Yet I can't thank you enough, since you're the only one how even tried to assist me with my problem so far!
I have another question yet... is it too late to create a EFS backup?
I've speed read some threads about Nand erase and that could eventually solve my problem.

Unfortunately I don't think it's possible to backup the EFS without recovery/working android. So if it's deleted, you will just have another bricked stated, not being able to use it with your provider.
Have you tried just to flash a bootloader through Odin, see if that works? Or does it just quit instantly?
You need to flash with a PIT file and repartition checked. At least that's what I gathered from looking at the issue.

I don't tried yet flashing just the bootloader, but i've tried to flash a bootloader among with other files, Odin Failed. Can you sugest which bootloader to flash?
So far I couldn't flash anything without Odin failing...
BTW, adb doesn't find the device either...

Thanks for your reply. I've already flashed almost 6 diferent PIT files, with and without AP, nothing worked for me so far. I belive that's because I haven't got any 5.0 PIT file yet. Would you care to share one?

Which of the probs do you mean?
Hard brick or emmc error?
I don't know, I think an emmc problem. I try more and more steps but nothing to do. I try to install too much firmwares with Odin but the error is the same: THERE IS NO PIT BINARY and SECURE CHECK FAIL: PIT.

Using multiple part stock or all in one?
Seems as if it wants you to repartition it.
Worth a try perhaps.

Hit the appropriate button in Odin.
The pit file is integrated in the CSC part of the multiple stock firmware.
Where can I find the special button in Odin? I'm sorry but I don't know what it is. I have the firmware downloaded from sammobile.

Dunno if it's always in the same place on different Odin versions.
Pic should show what I mean.
If not displayed search for "odin Samsung pit" pics.
Seems to me that Odin might want the pit file separately.
Either you can search for it here in XDA or extract it from your CSC file by renaming the end ( I think it was lz4) and opening the archive to copy the pit to your Odin folder on the desktop.

Is it multiple?
I understand what you mean by multiple file but I don't know how or with which program I can divide it and insert it in the 4 fields of Odin. I have a single file with the extension .md5.
Then how do I find the CSC file from the firmware to extract the PIT file?
You can use SamFirm tool to download stock as a multiple file.
Have to check "binary nature" box for getting it.
Otherwise it comes as one part file.

Phone stuck on "Samsung Galaxy S5 .. Powered by Android" screen

So originally I had 5.0 stock firmware that was updated through Samsung Kies.
Then I started using Samsung SmartSwitch (new Kies) and it told me I had a new update. I tried installing it and it failed.
So phone was stuck and error message showed ".. update failed .." and so on.
I decided to put the phone in download mode and flash the stock firmware via Odin but no matter what I try, everything fails.
As of right now, I've read and tried multiple things. Like this:

Download this firmware link below. this is full repair firmware. After download extract file and flash in odin version 3.10 after flash go to recovery do wipe cache and factory reset otherwise you will face bootloops .this is 5.0.1 lollipop firmware but you can update to marshmallow later via ota update. And do let me know if it work for you

Thanks
Meanwhile I have installed TWRP recovery via odin, and it worked (for the first time... i've tried before but no way...). The download of the firmware was not completed so I left the phone on in twrp mode... bad idea ! The battery was low... and now, I can't turn it on and I can't understand if it's charging or not.
So sad

Charge your battery via other note 4 or desktop charger for few minutes and try again

Unfortunately I don't have another GN4 nor a desktop charger (but maybe l'll buy it tomorrow...). So, wait and see...
By the way, thank you so much for your help I'll tell you tomorrow if it works or not

Hi Trex888,
here I am... but unfortunately it doesn't work:
Odin says :
<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/003> Initialzation..
<ID:0/003> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/003> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
<ID:0/003> FAIL!
<ID:0/003>
<ID:0/003> Re-Partition operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
I put every file in the good case (AP in AP etc..) and even Pit file in pit case... On option tab i've selected re-partition and F-reset time.
On my phone I can see that :
UDC start
Odin: flash read failure
Error: there is no pit binary.
It's not good for me ?
Thanks
Cat
Another thing... it's not important but i've bought this phone on ebay. Today i've tried to check the imei of my GN4 (SM-N910F) and this is what i can see on imei.info :
G900P Galaxy S5 (Sprint) (SM-N910F)
it's strange... why it says G900P ? I know the differences between GN4 and S5... it's a GN4 for sure
Thanks,
Cat

Bricked SM-N9005, how to fix

Hello,
I bought a refurbished Note 3 phone on Amazon.
I tried to install Android 5.0 as described here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/guide-t2983873
This failed. I tried to install a new PID file: HLTE_EUR_OPEN.pit
Now the phone is bricket:
I only get the message: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please
select recovery mode in Kies and try again.
This doesn't work because in Kies I get the message:
The model information cannot be verified.
Contacted Samsung, they said, they cannot help me.
Any idea what else I could try?

Where does Odin fail ??
Why flash a pit file ?? Its probably why you have a brick .

Well the question why flash a pit file is easy to answer:
I followed the infos, given at android pit:
how to get android 5 0 lollipop on the galaxy note 3
(I cannot post the link)
"If you're experiencing an ext4 error message, you need to download the correct PIT file for your device (Google your model number and "PIT file" to find one). Then check Re-Partition, click on the Pit tab and then the PIT button and locate the file. Then continue."
I experienced an ext4 error message.
But my question is:
What can I do now?

You should ask Android pit whatever they are or take to a service center.

Boot to Download mode and report the exact model of your device.
Refurbished samsung phones are disguised most of the time.
Well, what should a service centre be able to do that I am not able to do?
I am electrical engineer and experienced embedded system developer.
I just need some hints.

It's OK.
Try one more time to flash via odin using this file and make sure :
- Before flash, completely shutdown the phone, take out battery for 10min.
- Use the included PIT file.
- Check also NAND Erase All in Odin options.
Good luck.
Thanks a lot for your hints.
But it didn't work yet. Error messages:
ODIN:
Re-Partition operation failed.
Phone:
Erasing user data partition
PIT FAIL: TOTAL SECTIONS (30777344)
Any idea?
