Hi,
I was trying to flash stock firmware andriod 6.0.1 on my SM-N910F device which was on android 5.1.1. I already done this before and it worked.
Anyway I was flashing it and did everything right but Odin showed write failure. After that the phone turned off and never gone back on again.
1) Cant go to Recovery mode
2) Cant go to Download Mode
3) Cant do adb because the device isn't recognised by the computer.
solutions I tried-
1) Going to download mode by holding buttons (didnt work)
2) Connecting it to PC and using adb.
3) Installing its drivers.
Anything else i can do to bring it back to life ?
Thanks
Your Boot loader downgraded . That is Why the phone get dead. Now you can JTAG with the RIFF machine to get back on the phone. Other wise no solution.

Hi thanks for replying. I seen the jtag videos they dont seem so hard. The only problem is the riff box they are a bit overpriced. Any other solution.

I apologize in advance if this has been posted before as I do not frequent this site much.
So I just tried to download 2.2 via kies and ended up bricking my phone. I followed it step by step so I don't know where I went wrong.
So in the process of me trying to unbrick my phone I tried to get into recovery mode with no success.
I got fed up trying to access download mode by vol. up/down and plugging in usb and decided to just go ahead and open Odin with the usb plugged into my phone and laptop still not in download mode.
On Odin it was on ID: COM 10 so i said screw it, I put in the pit and pda and hit start.
What do you know. it worked !
My phone is up and running now and I'm now trying to find an alternative way to get 2.2 on my vibrant.
Just wanted to share.
If you weren't in DL mode then what screen were you on?
The com number is unimportant. There is a deodexed stock version of 2.2 in the dev forum posted you could use that instead of Kies...... I would
I have only been able to access the phone via odin in download mode and the computer-phone mode, whatever its called.
These are the techniques I use to access d/l mode consistently. It depends on which software was installed prior to crash however, as they seem to alter the method somehow.
phone off then vol + and vol -, and plug in usb, the most common one. If that doesn't work, its usually phone off then vol - and power. This seems to be for the older versions of android. Also, keep the back cover off, because if it doesn't work, just pop the battery out and in.

The ID: COM 10 means that Odin is communicating with your phone in download mode. lol
I thought I noticed this too a while back (when odin 1.8 leaked), but I figured my memory from the previous night's flashing was inaccurate. I'll remember to try if I've tried everything else to no avail.

The screen on my phone: picture of a phone and a computer next to it.
So I guess this mean that I don't need to be on download mode on my phone in order to unbrick it. Sweet!
Now only if I could find an easy way to update to 2.2

There is a very easy way to get to 2.2.
Root you phone, install CWM and flash a 2.2 rom. There is a Stock 2.2 ROM that will bring you back to un-rooted status if you are worried about warranty.
Im sure you all have heard this one before. But I think mine may be alittle different. Im getting the error, System software not authorized etc. I bought it off of someone. I have odin 3.07 and it doesnt show the COM ports. I got USB drivers for samsung cellphones. I also got the stock ROM downloaded. I guess the question is, is there a way to flash this back to stock from the SD Card? I noticed this. I unplug the USB cable. The phone turns off. It does not come on unless the USB cable is hooked up. So I dont know if this means anything different. This phone has never been hooked up to this computer. It shows a Unknown Device in my device manager. Its hardware ID tag is USB\UNKNOWN. It is showing the SECURE FAIL: KERNAL. Can someone point me in the corrrect direction. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm guessing you when you bought it the phone booted is this correct?
If yes, what firmware is on it?
What have you done that no longer allows the phone the boot (did you flash something with Odin)?
The more info the better....

So you bought the phone and it has never booted for you?
If you have MF3 bootloader on there and someone tried to install a custom recovery it could be soft bricked.
Not sure what to suggest if you don't know what occurred to cause the phone to only go into download mode?
You could take it to best buy with a samsung experience center and have them reflash it?
The only problem with this is if you don't have MF3 bootloader, best buy will flash it and upgrade it.....
Try to Odin MDL on it first

When you mean MDL. thats the stock rom correct? I do have that. When I look at Odin, it doesnt show anything on the COM part at the top left. Like its hooked up to a com port.
What I meant by the Downloading ...... (with the driod logo guy) Im saying I can get it to do that. Im at the point where I cant get the S4 to be reconized by ODIN. I have the stock rom, odin 3.07 files. I have tried to install the samsung usb drivers....
Still no reply on how to fix this? I have no clue on what to do here. I dont know what firmware etc is on it. I bought it this way. I just want to flash it back to factory, its the att version. It only stays on when the usb is hooked up. I can get it to go into download mode. But on the computer, it doesnt show a usb device being found. I can start odin up, but nothing appears on the COM to show what com port is available. Is there anything I can do here off of a SDCard? I also need to mention that I can not hold down vol up and power and home button to get it to go into recovery mode. It flashes it fast and goes to the yellow triangle.
Anyone please.....
You need to get Odin to recognize it. Try different usb cables. Use the usb ports on the back of the computer. Try a different computer. Without knowing the firmware you're on odin may not work, but it should still recognize your device. If you're on mdl firmware Odin will work. If you're on mf3 then you're sol.
Have you tried to get into the recovery and not just the download mode?
Volume up + Home + Power - If you can get into a recovery try to do a factory reset.
If you cant get into the recovery than you'll need Odin. Sometimes (rarely) kies well affect Odin. If you have kies uninstall it and than run odin.
- Open Odin without your phone connected.
- Power on your device, go into download (Odin) mode. Volume down + home + power.
- Now plug device into your computer.
- Odin should read it, unless its MF3 firmwire.
If your phone is MF3, you may need a Samsung bestbuy rep to reflash the mf3 firmwire.

I have tried the power, vol up and home. It flashes the recovery, then goes back to the triangle. Odin, doesnt show a COM port that the phone is connected when i have it in download mode.
Also....i do appreciate you all for helping me figure this out.
Hello,
I want upgrade my LG G2 with a new rom 5.xX
This phone have only the operator update. No custom, no trwp, nothing...
I installed drivers and when i want access to download mode. I can't. I use the good proccess with vol up then plug usb cable always with vol up presses.
follow this procces after a little moment my phone show me battery logo charging.
So i can't access to download mode.
I would use this process
t was NOT bricked. I finally tried playing around with the LG Mobile Support Tool (B2CAppSetup.exe). Of course it detected that my phone already had the latest firmware from T-Mobile, but then I clicked Options>Upgrade Recovery.
It downloaded for a while then I noticed it had put my phone into download mode (it said "Rooted" in red letters at the bottom). Then it flashed the same firmware over and I immediately tested, it entered download mode right away. But I didn't end up needing that as Stumproot was able to brute force it now after the recovery flash.
Anyway, I couldn't find an answer anywhere else. Most results also have a bricked phone, but that wasn't my issue. This solved my problem and maybe it could work for others.
but it's impossible for me to install B2appsetup on my pc the installation begin then stop after 5s then nothing.
I have Win 10.
Do you have a solution for me , please??

Tried installing custom recovery didn't work out like I had hoped now im stuck with a phone that isn't detected by odin or kies but by MiFlash
Please tell me there is something I can do to fix it or get it to some sort of working order..? Is there a jtag tool or usb jig I can use?
Update - I found out the phone was still under warranty so I sent it away to be repaired. It was repaired and I now have a working phone !

What have you done to reach that state? I know that you're desperate but you must give some details if you want help.
It was given to me with 5.1.1 installed however it failed mid process and while on 5.1.1 it kept freezing and acting weird such as boot with weird errors and they only appeared after it was updated, I decided to root it with odin and it never fully rebooted after the was root applied. I finally got it to boot to stock and rooted and decided to install a custom recovery which was twrp while selecting the recovery it said if its a wrong location it will brick, with this in mind I checked the model with the one on their site and it seemed to make sense and applied it.
This caused the original problem which made it boot straight to download mode with it saying it could not normal boot. I then googled the problem and one said the pit was corrupted and downloaded the correct file. I then applied this through odin with stock firmware and it refuse to flash. At the time I was thinking a restart on the device would help, but it resulted in not booting at all and not being detected....
It does not light up or make a vibration when its connected or powered on if there is any solution it would be great...
Can anyone help or point in the right direction?

Can you tell us if you can get on recovery screen, either TRWP or stock, or download mode.
You could try installing these drivers:

Reboot just in case and try to connect your device again.

Go to sammobile and download the latest firmware for your phone. Hold volume down, home and power to boot into download. Connect phone to PC and use Odin (if Linux use Heimdall) to Flash the firmware. If you need more guidance you can find info on here or Google about flashing with Odin on our device.
