[HELP] Odin failed on XXUGNG4 firmware

Hi,
I encountered error during flashing of XXUGNG4 official firmware using odin 3.09. It did not completed successfully. I have tried to change usb port but still got the same error. I managed to flash the custom recovery and restore my previous rom backup but got a warning 'kernel is not seandroid enforcing' and when my phone boot my camera and sound (volume,etc) is not working.
Question: Can I flashed XXUGNG4 official firmware even if my custom rom is XXUGNG8? I really need to go back to stock official firmware in order to fix the problems I encountering on camera and sound
Really need your help...
Thanks

Hi,
You cannot flash an older version of your firmware without encountering problems.
You need to flash XXUGNG8 or later.

Don't forget to wipe data and cache before and after flashing the firmware

Hi Bradatanu:
My guess is that maybe the PIT messed, but I'm not certain about it. Look for the right PIT file for your model and the correct Firmware for your phone.
Flash the PIT AND THE FIRMWARE with Odin and then turn off the phone, remove the battery.
Wait like 30 seconds and boot into recovery, then wipe cache and maybe a factory reset.
Reboot.
Hopefully this will do.
Best!

Downgraded my Note 3 to kitkat now I have a bootloop

Hi,
I tried to downgrade my Note 3 with CSC VIA to Kitkat VIA. Downloaded and flashed firmware from Sammobile. Didn't work. failed in ODIN though it finished.
I tried it again and now i can flash Kitkat with ODIN "passed" but I'm stuck in bootloop. Full wipe and cache clean in recovery won't work. Tried it a last time with Kitkat DBT version (debranded) and added a PIT file by Darklord for 1DBT. ODIN says passed but the bootloop still is there. Download mode is still available so i see some real chance to get it done.
Is it possilbe to debrand to DBT that easily or shall I stay on VIA? I never tried the PIT file for DBT with VIA firmware. Anyone has a clue what I might try to get it working again? Ah btw. Recovery and Download seems to be perfectly fine and Knox isn't triggered.
Your input is highly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Try this:
1. Full wipe first (system, data, cache and dalvik)
2. Flash the VIA Kit Kat firmware via ODIN unticking "Autoreboot".
3. Take out the battery and pull in it again when the flashing process finish.
4. Boot in Recovery and make full wipe again.
5. Reboot your device and it should boot normally.
6. Tell me if it worked for ya

Hi,
thanks for you input. I tried it - still the bootloop. So I made a try with the current version (installed before). This works - most likely because I'm unable to clean Dalvik with the standard recovery.
Anyhow in the end I'm not happy with the outcome because of the bluetooth issues of the new version. Anybody has a suggestion how to downgrade sucessfully - I'd happily install a CM12.1 as well but a nightly without installation advice seems to be a bit too much for me.

try flashing MODEM with NON-HLOS, I think you have corrupted the EFS.

You can flash TWRP recovery if you don't care about KNOX and follow my steps above :highfive:

[Q] Stock ROM .zip for SM-G530H or Solution for Odin Error

Hello all!
I did a small mistake with my brother in law's phone. I lost his System and thought "ok no prob... just need to flash the stock with ODIN".
Well... life kicked me in the nuts... every time that I try to flash the original ROM by Odin 3.7 or 3.9 or 3.10 I see an error (Failed (Auth)). I don't know how to solve.
I did flash MIUI with a lot of bugs, so he can use the phone but I'm feeling guilty. Since the ODIN flash is not working and CWM is working... I'm here to ask you for a favor. Does anyone has a Stock or almost stock ROM for the SM-G530H to share ?? Or maybe do you know how to solve the Odin problem? Which firmware to flash without error?
His phone is from TIM provider and we are from Brazil.
Thanks guys!

same problem
Hi i have the same problem is there any update on the issue

I thought we're not supposed to post our questions in general section?

Softbricked A5(2016) A510F - can't install firmware

Hey there!
So it seem like I bricked a friends A510F
Wifi, bluetooth, mobile data all weren't working properly and there were some minor difficulties with performance so we decided to install AOSP...
All her data is secured so I seached for a good ROM and tried to install TWRP from here. Installing via Odin sadly failed so now I have device without Android, only OdinMode is working, but all attempts to install either twrp for a custom ROM or Samsung original firmware failed...
Any clues what I'm doing wrong? Haven't done a Samsung device so far...
All suggestions welcome
yanness

Download repair firmware from xda and flash it through odin.it will probably work!

What happens when the phone is turned on? Does it get stuck in boot logo and stays like that? Try flashing stock bootloader. Also give details on which firmware u were on. What error do u get in odin?

Hello Sirs,
Please, can anybody help me? It is very weird what is happening!
After to go and download the original firmware in Sammobile, I used odin to install a stock rom! Odin is OK (process completed) but when it is trying to start, the logo samsung is blocked (bootloader). I have tried to modify the hidden.img to hidden.img.tar and I have use Odin but nothing looks like to work. Can anybody help me?
Thanks so much in advance!
Additional info: The device has not been rooted, etc.

hey i use a galaxy a510F currently and evertime i get FRP locked, software deleted, broken rom or twrp, my final solution is to odin flash a PERFECTLY WORKING STOCK ROM (which i had to try downloading from 3 or 4 different sites) and then i'd flash twrp ( official ) and restore one of by backups if needed. last time i had to flash because i hot frp locked tring out a new rom. i flashed over a stock rom and i got my phone working surprisingly without even losing my apps.
file i used is:" INS-A510FXXU8CSF1-20190710103917.zip"
pm me if u need a link (its in my drive)
