S4 I9500 Bricked while installing rom...

Hi, I had my S4 with stock rom 4.3 with adam kernel and philz touch recovery, tried to install via odin the stock rom 4.4.2 TTT but because of a CPU problem the usb connection was interrupted while installing. Now I'm stuck at download mode.
Here's details.

Odin was interrupted at the bootloader update (sboot.bin). You need the "factory ROM" to flash it, however I am not aware if anything for 4.2.2 would be available for now.

Well it doesn't work, when I turn on the phone a black screen with a cellphone, a warning sign and a monitor appears and a text says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
With this screen I can only go into download mode but when I try recovery mode it just puts the screen black and back to the same text and pictures.
Another thing that worries me it's that I can't turn the phone off with the button, only if I pull the battery out.

This can be recovered I had same prblm some months ago bt I just flashed stock firmware nd it was fixed u may try flashing stock rom again

I've already tried with the rom "I9500UBUEMK1_I9500UUBEMK1_I9500UBUEMK1_HOME.tar.md5" (I believe it's stock rom) and get the odin error that appears in my first post...

Try some other firmware of you own region ......... 4.3 or 4.4 whichever u have for your region .......I think then u will nt get same error

Hi, I tried, but in Kies I can't get trough the "Connecting..." status so when I choose "Emergency firmware recovery" the list of devices appears empty.

I think u should try flashing some other stock firmware I hav had the prblm before

Hi, I'm downloading another firmware now. But I don't think it will work, i've tried with a pack I found (firmware+pit+booloader+cp+csc) and didn't work. Also I tried just flashing only de BP file and keep getting the same error:

I don't know what to do but I'm downloading an ARO stock firmware (4.3) and I'll try...

It should work I did the same thing but cant say anything

Obviously not. simple flash of ROM is not sorting out the corrupted bootloader problem.

considering your situation, I doubt if it will work. you have to pick from two scenarios:
a) your download mode shows warranty void, knox void, custom: then you have to go to step 2 below.
b) your download mode shows all statuses samsung or official or 0x0 - then go to 1
1. Call samsung service center, they shall sort it out under the warranty.
2. More complicated, if you do not want to pay for repairs.
DELETED, procedure was for I9505 ONLY
you have to follow the procedure form this link instead.
Good luck.

You will need the PC with not faulty CPU, first.
Then, you have to use the PIT from here
Of course, you will need the Qualcomm drivers as well, from here or this one
Then, you have to follow the relatively simple procedure described here
That shall fix the corrupted bootloader, and I hope that you will not see the described there errors which would point to the hardware problem.
Good luck.

Warning!
He said he is in trouble with a I9500 device, so the Qualcomm drivers will not help....much.

Just an observation, you said you have no recovery right? So have you tried just flashing the tar of PhilZ recovery using Odin to get it back?
At least then you'll have a recovery again and can move forward with a custom ROM install

How can you NOT KNOW THIS??!!!
It's all over the forum and on most of the rooting threads...
Way to go with your homework....
To get your phone working again flash a KK rom...
Oh, by the way you might wanna check your Knox warranty void status, you'll be lucky if it isn't 0x1...

Mate, I wasn't kidding about Knox warranty void being tripped. If you go to download mode check it says Knox warranty void 0x0. If not, then you can flash the latest cf-autoroot from the original rom developement section for root access as you have already tripped Knox...
I hope you didn't have re-activation lock active also cause this too can be a pain. You need to re-flash the exact rom that was on your phone BFORE rooting or playing around or you won't be able to get it to start up...
Again this information is in download mode...

Help a NOOB that has tried everything in the forum to flash a stock rom

hi
I bought a secondhand galaxy S5. A have been trying to upgrade it to lollipop 5.0 but I have encounter all the possible problems you can. I start with the phones background (i am a new user so i cant post any images) because I am suspecting the first owner did root/update it with the wrong firmware(explain later). the phone is working fine except for the play store that is not working at all. so I just want a clean stock installation and after that I may root it later.
Phone info on the back of the phone when retiring the battery:

From what I understand my phone is a G900F, what i don't understand is why the first owner installed the G900TUVU1ANCH version. I want to put everything as it is supposed to be and also upgrade to 5.0 by doing it. But when trying to flash the stock firmwire i am stuck facing problems....

It's very clear,the previous owner has flashed 3 custom rom's on the device( knox 0x1(3) )and apparently the wrong one and i think that's the reason he sold it.
I think you need the right PIT file,you can google it or ask here for it.
BTW i'm Dutch too from Belgium.

Just a question, are you using a windows or a mac computer. Because sometimes stuff doesn't work when using a mac platform.

I have never had to flash a pit file, but reading the instructions, it says you need to be rooted and have busybox installed. If your status is official you aren't rooted.
QUOTE from posted thread
Here i will show you how to extract the pit file manually with a simple way using terminal emulator or adb shell command.
your phone must have a proper root access, with busybox installed (preferred).
Even better, why not post your question at the high lighted thread, including all you phone info and request the proper pit file.

I have a stock 5 files Open Euro firmware package (Files are: PIT, BL, AP, CP, CSC) but I'm looking for a way to share it with you... Plz wait!
P/S: Link is here: https://www.fshare.vn/file/7CY9MFWQ1K/
Click on the blue button named: "Tải chậm (miễn phí)" to download.
Use ODIN 3.09 to flash, load all the files in correct potitions (PIT to PIT, BL to BL, AP to AP...).
"Re-Partition" box in ODIN MUST BE checked!

How can i bypass this secure check?? maybe this is the problem?
Any ideas??? I appreciate all your help guys even if what we tried haven't solve the problem

*#06#
Enter *#06# in dialpad to check if the IMEI of your mainboard match with IMEI numbers printed in the back... maybe your mainboard was replaced with G900T's mainboard.

i just did what you said.... the imei are the same except for the last two digits after the slash....
the emei on the sticker ends with: ........56401/03
when using the *#06# code: ......56401/10
is this normal? of is this going to be the explanation to the problem??
also when i use *#1234# i get this:
AP: G900FZHU1AND1
CP: G900TUVU1CNK2
CSC: G900FZZH1AND1
so i think the CP doesn't match with my phone model right?
I also tried to do a firmware upgrade and initialization with ODIN 3 by putting my phone model and s/n and i get this message:
So I downloaded this firmware apparently for Hong Kong at sammobile. I tried to flash it with ODIN but... i still have the same problem i am unable to flash anything to the phone. the only thing i have manage to flash until now is PhilZ Touch 6.59.0 and this firmware which is FULL of bloatware:

Custom ROM
If you have a custom recovery. Try to install a custom ROM like omega... It will flash new baseband, AP, kernel and csc... Backup current ROM first.
http://omegadroid.co/samsung-galaxy-s5-g900f/

maybe a stupid question... but how can i flash it with a custom recovery? can you please explain? pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Download the ROM pakage (ZIP file) and don't extract... Copy the zip file to the root of External SDcard... Enter recovery mode, choose "install zip from External sdcard", browse the zip file, final choose install. Done! You should choose "wipe data/factory reset" in recovery to make sure the new ROM clean and not face any compatibility problem between old and new ROM.

Thank you very much!! Last question. Can i flash a european stock rom this way without any problems also? or does it only work with custom roms?

If there is Samsung Kies installed make sure that it is not running. It conflicts with Odin.

Not as of now, as the bootloader has been updated on exynos variants in january update patch. If you haven't updated to january patch, you could downgrade using odin, but be sure to check repartition and select CSC in csc tab of odin, NOT THE CSC_HOME.
Sent from my S7 Edge using XDA Labs

Thanx for answer !
I don't update the patch january

Well, in theory it is. I just done it, after I upgraded to newest bootloader. The only thing is (at the moment) vibration does not work on Marshmallow. Everything else seems to be fine.

I'm surprised they would block downgrading with the january update patch.

I flashed BL and CP (BTU) from newest firmware and AP and CSC from desired old firmware (BTU). In that case it was going back to MM. Aparat from no vibration, no other issues found.

i tried downgrading once ,, camera didnt work

No issue with camera here, at all.

Just flash now newest firmware (all files) and make sure you use CSC files (not home_csc).

I have made it and now we are at the point 0.
my phone is looked with FRP and the problem is that I have forgotten the last email and I want to open it ?also i have updeted it with January 2018 update accidentally

Frp lock lasts something between 24 and 72 hours. So you have to wait. In the meantime, you can try flashing again (BL and CP you just used, and AP and CSC, not home_csc, of old software of you desire).

Thanks for the guide I used it successfully to get to Marshmallow as I wanted to get the Galaxy Labs feature, I now want to get back to Nougat but when I use the automatic update it says that I am on the latest version.

Hey, i have a S7 Edge, but my issue is the same: odin.
I try to root S7 Edge, now my Wlan, my Camera doesn’t work and my screen is to half red.

After i googled, someone says that i should do a factory reset, now my phone can start and the Bootloop is gone, but i have the same error like before.
Every times when i try to flash 6.0.1 i get the same error like above, what should i do ?
How can i fix my Camera Issue?
How i can flash Mashmellow and deinstall the false SuperSu version ?

No work for me
i tried it several times and always it stuck on boot.. And i can only enter download mode...
Maybe you have some idea??
I use:

Maybe it is something wrong with this file??
It's a mystery to me..

But flash custom rom MM over newest Nougat is possible? I reached max 2h40min with last update, battery is new, 3 full chargings. On MM battery life was much better ...
LE : After flashing SupermanROM V1.15.5 over stock rooted nougat, with last security patch from march(i think), vibration doesn't work and on "Always On Display" no icon for notifications.. I tried to flash BL and CP but not working .. I will try more next week ...
