Hello,
I received a S5 with lots of problems.
It only boots on Download Mode, not in Recovery Mode or normal boot.
When you tried to boot it normaly or with volume up+home+power buttons, it just show the logo with "Samsung Galaxy S5... Powered by ANDROID" or this logo plus "recovery booting..."
I tried to flash multiple firmwares with exactly the same results (just change strings on Download Mode) (using different versions of ODIN and USB cables):
-G900T1UVU1ANE7_G900T1TMB1ANE7_G900T1UVU1ANE7_HOME.tar.md5 + KLTE_USA_MTR.pit (stock rom + pit, and w/o the pit)
-G900T1UVS1BOL1_G900T1TMB1BOL1_TMB
-G900TUVS1FOL1_G900TTMB1FOL1_TMB
I don't know what the previous owner made to the phone, only that he tries to flash another ROM.
Even I noticed that when I try to flash something the knox counter doesn't change.
Sticker in back says:
MODEL: SM-G900T1
SW: G900T1UVU1ANE7
HW: 1.0
Please I need HELP to revive this phone.
Use odin 3.09
I used Odin v3.09 and v3.10.7.

Is possible that reactivation lock is active. the only way to fix it is install a stock KitKat rom ROM enter in the Samsung account when it asks and then deactivate it.

G900T1UVU1ANE7 (4.4.2 stock KK) flashed but, like before, only boot in download mode.
Ignore what is said on the phone sticker, what model is displayed in download mode?
And as for the knox counter, it won't change while you try to flash only official stock firmwares.....

With stock firm recently flashed:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G900T1
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
KNOW WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 (2)
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB)
AP SWREV: S1, T1, R1, A1, P1
UDC START
Ok.....Try here......

On this page you will find 'repair' or 'engineer' firmwares (there is one for the 900t I checked) these firmwares are used by service staff to repair software on devices.....Instead of overwriting what is already on the device, they wipe and format the device while they flash it.......
http://i.imgur.com/rVnFwJM.jpg
Nothing changes after flash. Just 'CURRENT BINARY: Stock' in Download Mode.
Have you tried to boot into recovery?
http://i.imgur.com/rVnFwJM.jpg
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB)
Not 100%, but I think that means your bootloader is locked to the latest firmware, which would mean you would only be able to flash the same or a newer stock ROM
The 'QUALCOM SECURE BOOT' line is present on my Odin screen too....

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You can't really tell from this image, but every line of text above the qualcom secure boot line is bright (highlighted?), but the Qualcom secure boot line and RP SWREV line are darker.....
I'm guessing that if the 'Qualcom .......' line was brighter in the same way as the previous 5 lines of text, then it would be an 'active' feature......... @*Detection* what are your thoughts on this?
http://i.imgur.com/rVnFwJM.jpg
Just checked mine and it's the same, greyed out, I searched that line yesterday and everything I found seemed to be saying it was a lock to the bootloader due to updated firmware, so we'll need to see if OPs SECUREBOOT line is greyed out too, or bright like the rest
Although there are different coloured lines for ODIN MODE (red), SECURE DOWNLOAD (Blue) and UDC START (red), so it could just be a poor choice of colours
I couldn't take a better photo:
ODIN MODE (red)
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G900T1 (white)
CURRENT BYNARY: Samsung Official (white)
SYSTEM STATUS: Official (white)
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 (2) (white)
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB) (grey)
RP SWREV: S1, T1, R1, A1, P1 (grey)
SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE (blue)
UDC START (red)
Photo is good enough to see the colours of the lines
Right, so it's not that then, seems others have that confused with a locked bootloader then, I got the info from reading threads here on XDA
Back to the drawing board
Are you T-Mobile?
Nope, it supposed to be MetroPCS but the terminal is exacly the same as the T-Mobile (900T).

I've tried flashing ZEROLTE_USA_TMO.pit with the firmware 7.0 for my S6 edge and it bricked it. The firmware is from sammobil and the pit don't remember where got it from. Since then Nand erased all.

In Odin uncheck auto reboot, after flash successful, boot directly to recovery and wipe data/cache. Then let it boot, as always first boot can take a while. At times my G925F took over 30 minutes to boot up first boot.

Im up and running don't know what happened but Im in Thank God!
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:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/help/wont-past-s5-powered-android-screen-t3225682
When I go to download mode on the phone, here is what reads on the top left:

The following guide shows very good instructions with all the files but I am unsure of which version I should be using or even the file for that version since there are SOO MANY files there. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784880
A little detail answer would really be appreciated.
Thank you!!

were you already rooted? if not then you cant downgrade due to the bootloader being locked
Hi all,
I have tried almost everything to bypass my old device.
I have used Odin with TWRP, and it says its FRP locked.
As soon as the screen comes on(no matter what key combo I press) this is what I see:
ODIN MODE (MULTI CORE DOWNLOAD)
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G361F
CURRENT BINARY:Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
FRP LOCK: ON
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x0
Secure Download : Enabled
RP SWREV: S1, L1, M1
Underneath there is a message: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again.
I have tried Kies (all versions), I have used the .tar files in odin on the AP tab but I get a prompt that it's FRP locked (in green text) along with the message above. I cant get into the download modeof the phone. Is there any way around this? Probably not but worth a shot in the dark.
Appreciate it if you can find a solution.

You should not to try in these conditions to flash through Odin otherwise the result will be this.
For the next, the first you have to do is check RMM state is have to be in unlock or atleast checking state not prenormal, and also your FRP and OEM unlock are ON, you should NOT to flash in this state.
The only thing that could save you is this, download this file and flash it, be careful to not cut the process and not use your pc for other jobs at same time (specially if you have a low powered one)
https://gsmxpro.com/combination-j7-pro-samsung-sm-j730-file/
Go for this version COMBINATION_OXA_FA70_J730GDXU5ARI1
This firmware doesn´t provide a complete image so reboot normally to system, enable USB debugging, check OEM unlock status that is ok, check your Google account and see again what´s on screen of download mode to can flash a complete firmware so you can use it again normally when the worst is gone.
Report if this helps.
