Galaxy S4 9505 odin problem. - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello i have a problem with flashing anything with odin on my Samsung Galaxy S4 9505.
Whenever i try flashing ROM or recovery or whatever, it says this:
<ID:0/003> Added!!
<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..
<ID:0/003> File analysis..
<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> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
Also when i try to boot my phone normally or go to the recovery it says this:
"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I've downloaded Kies and tried to recover it but it says:
'GT-I9505' does not support initializing.
What i've tried so far:
flashing pit file with and without the rom.Tried multiple odin versions.Tried multiple rom versions.Tried flashing recovery CWM and TWRP.
Also the error i got "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." was after i tried flashing official rom 4.4.2 downloaded form Sammobile(first i installed TWRP recovery wiped system data dalvic cache and booted in download mode ). I was previously using latest Android 5.0.1 official.
Is there any hope of unbricking my device?

Have you tried reinstalling your ADB driver?
Honestly, kies sucks. You don't need kies to have ADB driver installed. There is a package that install samsung drivers seperately.

Once you upgraded to a lollipop bootloader you can't just simply go back to a kitkat one. Samsung doesn't allow that.
Try using the back USB ports on your PC. Trust me, it can do wonders.
You could also try Heimdall.

well i think i've advanced abit now i get this:
<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..

Also is there any way to flash Official Samsung ROM true a custom recovery?Cuz i just managet to install TWRP recovery on it.

hollydamn i just tried flashing true odin Android 5.0.1 and it worked.But the wifi isn't working it just not letting me turn it on.

Why don't people understand when I say YOU CANNOT DOWNGRADE ?

i didn't downgrade it now i've installed 5.0.1.

Yes, but you tried to, even after I explicitly said you can't.
Your WiFi issues might be related to modem/kernel.
You could try flashing a different firmware.

I tied a differed one the wifi works now.Only when i turn on the mobile data and try to go to a random site it says Forbidden.I think i need to wait my carrier to send me the setting for the net...
Anyway THANK YOU very much!! <3

I have an i337m (North American version of s4) and you can downgrade from stock 5.01 to stock 4.4.2. I did this on 3 phones in order to use regionlockaway to sim unlock all three phones. Everything worked, including data and wifi.
I'd like to try a downgrade with a i9505 for curiosity sake but that particular model is not sold by carriers in Canada.

[Q] Having issues booting up my N9005 after a failed 5.0 Official Lollipop Update

Hello, I have tried updating my N9005 to the latest firmware 5.0 provided on Sammobile. After attempting to flash it via ODIN, the following error occurs:

<ID:0/003> Added!!
Retried this step several times, but i have received the same error.
Following a few instructions found on the XDA forums, I tried using PIT file in order to re-partition.
The phone now reboots but will not go past the first boot screen "Samsung Galaxy Note3 N9005".
I tried pulling out the battery and performing a factory reset (along with wiping caches), but the situation is still the same after rebooting the device.
Also I have noticed that upon accessing "recovery mode", a error stating " Failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)" error is displayed.
I'm pretty new at upgrading phones and I've bought this phone recently and was unaware of the consequences of flashing ROMS via Odin.
The initial fw. on the device was 4.4.2 Official Samsung. Is there any way that I can make the phone reboot normally with fw. 4.4.2? Or any other firmware for that matter?
Thanks in advance.

Reflash the firmware again now via ODIN without the .pit file.

I've tried that several times without success. But the issue was fixed. Apparently the PIT file I was using did not match the ROM i was flashing. I just had to find a matching pair of both ROM and PIT and now I've successfully booted my device. Hope that this thread might help others in need for answers to similar questions.
Alright, this is taking alot more than i had expected, after finally managing to boot my device, I've noticed that flashed rom behaves awfully, my phone is stuttering, and i have no sound. Also, my IMEI is displayed as "Unknown" in the "Status'" section of the device's Settings. Any suggestion on how to fix this issue?
flash the stock the rom you have before

Stuck in bootloop from trying to downgrade from 5.0 to 4.2

As the title says, I tried to downgrade from lollipop 5.0 to 4.2 because I've had several issues and I also wanted to get root. I think part of my mistake was I wiped data/factory reset before I flashed AP. Any help would be much appreciated, as I have been at this for the past five hours. I added some info below that might help below. Thanks
- I cannot boot into recovery and get the message (Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again)
- CP is the only thing that will flash and CSC also fails
- model number is g900a AT&T
- I have used Odin 3.10.7 and 3.09, but no luck

Hey I have also experienced the same thing before, I was panicking that time, so I fixed it by flashing the old zip file, if that does not work try following the instructions your phone gave eg. Go to kies

Kies and kies3 are both not recognizing my device. I heard it could be because of usb debugging, but I can't boot into my phone to check.

unbrick galaxy S5

Hi
I have a Galaxy S5 G900A, I tried to Root it but I forgot to put it to debugging Before, and it went into the brick.
I tried to burn him again 5 Android version of AT & TFirmware, but it failed.
I tried to burn it to the full original version of .4.4.2 Firmware includes all the files BL CSC CP and AP, But Odin writes failed.
Samsung Kies files to Recognize it
It has nothing to do?
Wait, Debugging mode you mean Download Mode?
You can try This Method For Unbricking.
Go to Sammobile and download the lastest stock rom, download chainfire and put PA on odin and flash it on Download Mode.
What version of Android was your phone on?
The ATT version of the S5 has a locked/encrypted bootloader, and if you already had lollipop, you can't downgrade to 4.4.2.
You can only flash the most current 5.x roms in ODIN if your phone already has 5.x
Was Installed Android 5.0
I tried to just a Root it at first but I forgot to bring the situation Dibging, then it became bruck
Currently unable to install the Android File AP 5. course in download mode.
Where can I get the full Framework 5 and G900A Android?

Flashing stock firmware to 5.1.1 SM-G925W8 (Canadian/Telus) problems. HELP!

Hello I recently rooted my phone on 5.1.1 (Lollipop) and everything went well no issues till last night when I tried to install xposed installer and ended up soft bricking (I think) my phone, where it will turn on to the samsung s6 edge + logo and just sit there and won't go any further. I found out how to flash to the original firmware using Odin 3.10.7 and with the stock firmware file.
now I put my phone into download mode and connect it to Odin, put the firmware file into the AP section and hit start.
Once I hit start I get a fail message and this :
<ID:0/003> Odin engine v(ID:3.1100)..

I've tried different firmwares from different sites, different odin verions, USB ports please help
I tried uploading pictures and links to the firmware I used but apparently I need 10 posts before that so if you want to know anything else in order to help please ask.
am non rooted trying to flash a different firmware and I get the same. I remove the OEM lock but cannot flash anything
odin 3.10.7 works
You write SM-G925W8 that´s S6 Edge, not S6 Edge+!!! Try firmware for SM-G928W8!

[Solved] Odin fails at/after param.bin

Answer, apparently I was using v4 bootloader, thought I was on most recent, but I wasn't. Had a hard time finding newer/current firmwares for my device, but was able to find v5, flashed and went perfectly
So I'm trying to reset my phone as a bad rom flash caused some sort of issue and couldn't get back into twrp "official binaries only"
Find latest firmware for my csc (which was july) doesnt work, I thought it might have been a BL issue as I had the august patch through a custom rom, found a different csc which was from august, and I get the same error
I also no longer get the official binaries only, just a bootloop of "An error has occurred while updating....use emergency recovery function in smart switch" which I also tried, no luck, but I can still get into download mode
Using most recent odin, official cable, updated usb firmware and such and am running as admin. Have tried different ports too, but it always fails at same step
