Yah.. were the same.. there are two new update on grand prime XTC Philippines (open line) but cant flash in odin. And also can not update the device in OTA. Please help.

This device have secure bootloader, so might be the reason u cant flash updated firmware, only OTA update. IMO need to unlock bootloader first if wanna success flash through odin.
Until now, the way to unlock this device bootloader is unavailable.

To upgrade the device is not necesarry to download the firmware of the respective region, u can flash any version of firmware for another regions, the only need to know is the respective version of firmware is for your device only that, i have flashed many firmware in my prime without issues ever from other regions ( most actual than my original region ) and y device is working ike a charm

Have you rooted the phone?

Can u elaborate what means.of.respective version please? u said that u flash many firmware for ur prime, which.one firmware have u been flashed successfully @tutibreaker

Hello guys I have solve this issue by flashing different firmware I used Nepal firmware. XTC firmware is corrupted.
You can use different region firmware if your phone is openline.

no i dont flash many versions in my device, just flash the latest update from other region and works fine, the region is not important

Hey, same problem here. I can't flash any firmware. Odin just errors: Failed [Auth].
And since I've rooted my Grand Prime, I'm not able to update it via OTA
What am I supposed to do?!
Recently I've faced some lags on my phone that I don't know why, but I think I need to update my firmware.

What firmware did you flash? If its XTC then you should try other region firmware like Malaysia or Indonesia. XTC firmware is corrupted.

You have to flash exact soft for your region and phone. Grand Prime have many versions so you must select right one. In East Europe there is no secure bootloader or maybe I haven't encountered it yet. If you have secured bootloader so probably it's gonna be same like Sony or HTC. You'll have to unlock it. I can't say where

Just open your odin then firstly do not connect your device before . Add the files to AP first and then you can connect your device into odin or that firmware you've download did not match .

And did you solve that problem guys?

The order did not do any difference. Why should it do?!

Before a chance the rom, I rooted my cellphone by this way
[ androidxda. com/root-samsung-galaxy-grand-prime-sm-g530h ]
It worked!
As someone said here, I should need to unlock the bootloader, I looked for I solution and I find this one
[ techtudo. com.br/dicas-e-tutoriais/noticia/2014/07/como-destravar-o-bootloader-de-um-dispositivo-android.html ]
this site is in portuguese-Br
it did not work
so, I installed samsung kies, and odin 3.04. And also didn't worked.
Now, I installed CMW recovery
[ mediafire .com/download/w0gzfrq7xtvztdr/Galaxy+Grand+Prime+CWM+Recovery.zip ]
still the same
finally, I downloaded odin 3.10.6, and instal a rom from india. As I find here [ droidviews .com/install-android-5-0-2-lollipop-firmware-on-galaxy-grand-prime-sm-g530h/ ]
Before I was trying Russia's rom.
After all, I noticed, and I read here, that depends on firmware which I was intalling

Pls Help me :(

There are no stock 6.0 roms for your device only cm roms and fingerprint scanner doesn't work on CM roms. With your odin fail it's either you are flashing a rom with a hidden/cache .img that is to big or you are flashing a firmware with an older bootloader than you have. Can you upload the odin log
?

I can Post the Log Later
That is the Repair Firmware

I have understood a thing on your phone :
your bootloader = PB2 (P=2016; B=february; rev2) -> common version to all N9005
your PDA = OF1 (O=2015; F=june; rev1)
your CSC = OG1 (O=2015; G=august; rev1) -> must be according of your operator (exemple: for me: France SFR -> XEF, but I can too NEE (Nordic Countries) because XEF is included in NEE)
On sammobile, that you see is PDA and CSC NOT BOOTLOADER !

If you want, nothing is risked with SAMSUNG !
But that I wanted to say to you is that there is an anomaly :
your bootloader (= kernel = motor of the ROM) is newer than the PDA !!!
It means that you have downgraded the firmware...
So you should try to install latest ROM from Sammobile (the higher on the page).
Remove your battery during 20sec then flash it, then reboot in recovery, then wipe everything.
Then say me if EFS mounting error...

galaxy j500h 5.1.1 downgrade problem

okay so i have this lil problem on my galaxy j5
a few months ago ive found this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/how-to/tutorial-upgrade-j5-2015-to-6-0-t3443904 so i tried to upgrade my phone to android 6.0.1(firmware: http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=D2F21816700B11E69B2DFA163EE8F90B) and it works perfectly fine tho
but im trying to downgrade to 5.1.1 coz i cant install any custom mods and kernels so i tried to flash a android 5.1.1 firmware(http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=F33B6BD4400411E6815B0CC47A44B7B2) which it gave me bootloops
i tried to re-flash it to android 6.0.1 firmware i recently downloaded. it works and it starts up ok but it says that the system is not running and it should be factory reset--something like that. so ive factory reset my phone and again..it gave me bootloops
fortunately ive recently did some twrp backup and good thing it worked fine. but the problem is that the recovery didnt backup my phone password(which im stucked rn bcoz i cant type my main phone password)
im preety stuck here and if i factory reset again it still gives me bootloops

I dont own that device, but i thing this would work:
Flash latest 6.0 firmware with samsung smart swich (PC), enable oem unlock in settings, flash twrp for 6.0 with latest odin, do a factory reset and a full wipe (except external sd an android secure). Then download latest 5.1 firmware for your device an flash it with odin (it will take some time).

You are stuck on Marshmallow

Hai bro,,,
u try this one after flashing offical firmware simply reboot your device into recovery mode by pressing Power + Home + Volume UP and do a wipe data/factory reset, and wipe cache partitions then reboot your device, it will start properly and all problems are now solved,,,,,

With the J500H, Samsung decided to lock the bootloader, meaning you can't downgrade. J500h seems to be the only locked device. Unless someone finds a way to unlock the bootloader then you are stuck on 6.0.1.

You can't downgrade anymore. I have J500H too. Im using Custom ROM right now.
More info here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/how-to/warning-flash-marshmallow-updates-t3500396

There is no solution.

update: after spending days of searching from google, i found a 5.1.1 firmware that is compatible with my 6.0.1 firmware since they have nearly similar baseband versions(J500HXWU1APE5 for the lolipop and J500HXWU1BPG1 for marshmallow). so now i can upgrade and downgrade the phone's firmware with ease

please, help me.

Those who are faced with the inability to roll back to version 5.1.1 are uncomfortable with using their phone.
We need to either use the Philippine firmware or install a custom firmware Belousova.
I found an acceptable way to flash my phone with a stock firmware.
For rollback, we need a four-file stock firmware J500HXXU1APA5 or J500HXXS1APE1.
File BL with the second loader BL_J500HXXU1APA5_CL958143_QB8363487_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar or BL_J500HXXS1APE1_CL1011281_QB9453563_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar .
Odin.exe.
Please note: these files for the regions: CAC, CAU, SEK, SER, SKZ.

First update to MM have the some botloader like LP. But next update have other bootloader and you can't boot LP with odin to your telephon.
10:32 And some more - Philippines firmware LP 5.1.1 have second bootloader. You can downgrade from last update MM to LP 5.1.1 very easy.

I found how I can help for you.
You may download firmware from here :"goo.gl/Yk1Byz" and unzip and flash in odin this firmware.
Then if some hardware not working you may download firmware for your region from here:"goo.gl/SdcwhA"
and unzip repeat the flash with odin but with one file firmware.
And If you don't update your telephon to MM you can flash telephon using only this stock firmware. Save it. First file you can delete.
I am sorry - in first step you may set BL for APE1 file from my blog . It have second bootloader for firmware.

J500f (TGY) NO MARSHMALLOW Update

Hi guys my phone j500f (TGY) modele has no update to 6.0.1 .
So my qiestion is how to change csc to (INS) to get marshmallow update.
I already tried flashing another multi csc rom with odin, if failed with : Fail! ( Size!)
Thank you.

Flashing firmware from different region/carrier via Odin should work as long as its the same model which is SM-J500F. There's no need to change your csc. You can choose firmware from any region/carrier from this link: http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?q=SM-J500F&rpp=15&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1

If none of the firmwares worked, it could be that your bootloader is locked or it doesn't support marshmallow since there's no marshmallow update for your region.

As I said before, it could be that Samsung (or your carrier) decided to lock the bootloader for your region to prevent you to upgrade to marshmallow, I'm not sure why they did that tho. Just like what they did to J500H, they locked the bootloader for marshmallow so anyone who upgraded their device to marshmallow cannot downgrade again to lollipop anymore.
