[Q] Hard to unbrick

Hey guys...
I need a little help from professionnals...I wanted to try a Cyanogen rom, the 10.1.3, a stable one, on my S4. So I downloaded it, I rooted my phone with cf-autoroot with Odin, intalled CWM Recovery. Then I did all the wipes and flashed the cyanogenmod.
Guess what, it didn't work The flash worked well but next infinite bootloop on the boot animation of cyanogen...So I tryied to go back to recovery, mount USB and flash an another rom of cyanogen. And the results was worse, the flash did'nt work at all, if I remember "failed to mount /system" or something similar. And when I tried to restard the phone, nothing happened.
So I wanted to go back to the stock rom to repair this mess. => Download mode then under PDA, my tar.md5 files. Didn't work. I also tried with a PIT file, same result.
I changed my usb cable, the version of Odin, the usb port.
Here's what Odin give :

I don't know what to do, I tried a lot of things beside all of this. Any ideas ?

Try install STOCK ROM with older ODIN (click here), no the newest version

What stock rom are you trying to flash?

if you have the secured bootloader (knox warranty void 0x0 in download mode) that means you can not flash old firmware such as MGA. you can flash firmwares MH?, MI? or MJ?.

I9505XXUBMGA = 4.2.2.
Thats probably why the flashing fails.

Only changing usb port and reinstalling solved it?
I have the same issue with ODIN3 3.07.

Unfortunately no. Apparently the tar.md5 file I was trying to flash was the problem. The developer released a newer version of it which was flashed okay. Thanks a lot anyway!

Problem while attempting to room Galaxy S4 I337 ATT

Phone: Galaxy S4 I337 AT&T with latest update, 4.4.3
What I did before I began the process:
1) Enable debugging mode on the phone
2) Installed latest Samsung Drivers
3) Used original USB Samsung cable
What I did: Download and ran Root and Recovery for ATT-TMO GS4-CASUAL-R527b and in doing so, processed failed.
Here is what looks like now:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Following step, to correct the problem, was I download the firmware that came with the phone, I337UCUAMDL_I337ATTAMDL_I337UCUAMDL_HOME.tar. Zip file in size of 1.59GB and I used different version of Odin, including 1.85, 3.04, 3.05 and 3.07 with no success to fix the problem I caused in the first place.
This is what phone looks like -
This is what Odin looks like when it attempted to process the file above, I337UCUAMDL_I337ATTAMDL_I337UCUAMDL_HOME.tar.

I would like to get my phone back running again. Can someone please guide me, if it possible to get it back to stock firmware. Please understand that I searched the forum and Google for all possible solutions, as well as YouTube videos. I am clearly not experience in rooting phone and this was my first attempt.
Thank you for all the help.

Remember that the phone has a locked boot loader which prevents stock recovery and kernel from being replaced. Also, the boot loader itself cannot be downgraded.
You were on KitKat which means you had firmware ending with NB1 or NC1. Trying g to flash the MDL files was trying to downgrade boot loader and hence the issue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2616221
Read the return to stock section of the above thread. Download and flash the NB1 firmware. There are 2 versions of which you can use either.
Method to update to latest NC1 is also given in the thread.
The only working recovery we have is safestrap. All custom ROM flashing happens with this.

Almost..but failed.
So I checked out the post you replayed and I did the following -
1) Downloaded I337UCUFNB1_4.4_Stock_Odin_tar from here
2) Used Odin v3.9.3 and here is the following result:

If you have twrp recovery just reboot into it and go to wipe>advanced wipe>and select dalvik/ART cache, system, data, internal storage(if you want), cache. Done finished wipe and swipe into reboot system and you got a message it's no os in your phone just keep reboot it. When the screen become blank keep press hold down power button+home+volume down to into download and that you will reflashed your stock rom with succeed it.

Are you trying to flash marshmallow or nougat ?

Google fpr lock lol. You need to remove all your google accounts from device pre flash to disengage the device protection implemented in 5.0 by google.

NEED HELP: S6 EDGE+ SM-G9287C STUCK (Error while updating software)

I hope you guys can help me.
So I tried going around my phone's system. I flashed using ODIN at first, then I got stuck on the "NO COMMAND ERROR". I put my phone again on Download Mode, but this time I got prompted this message, "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software.", which I did, but it always says "SM-G9287C does not support initializing."
What could have I done wrong? Please help.

My G360H/DS is stuck in a boot loop. I get the boot splash
Stock Recovery and TWRP both show errors mounting /cache/System/data etc .... so I'm guessing I really killed the partition table. However, I can still get into Download Mode, so I'm really hoping there is a chance to save my phone!
