Hello,
I use Samsung Galaxy S5 a year and less. Friend of mine brought it from the US. It’s unlocked with a code. The device is TMobile. A few days ago I used it as Hotspot router, to share internet to my laptop. I restarted the phone, but not turned off the Hotspot. When the phone is switched on, displaying the following error: "Secure Fail: Modem ...“in red letters, top left and in the middle - exclamation point in a yellow triangle, and below it the inscription in white letters: "Security Error: This phone has been flashed with unauthorized software & is locked. Call your mobile operator for additional support. Please note that repair/return for this issue may have additional cost". I tried to flash with Odin with different ROMs for model G900T. It gave me PASS all times, but the error still comes and the phone does not start. I gave it to a friend who has GSM service. He said he made 6 service flash and nothing. He tried flash with stock ROM and 4 fiels+pit, but nothing. I tried different tutorials from here, but I am not quite good and not sure I do things properly. I dis flash with this CF-Auto-Root-kltetmo-kltetmo-smg900t. Again same error but I had a different boot menu. There did a few cash and full resets. After that the phone started and stopped on Samsung android advertise. I flash with stock ROM after and again same modem error. I am from Bulgaria. I called to local Samsung service. They refused me to see the phone because they are not authorized. Have to repair just in USA, but this is complicated. Any idea what to do? Please, give a few tutorials to repair this!
Thanks in advance!
Please, you could give me threads which contains thing I have to do to repair my phone. No problem if I have to do few things. Important is to try everything possible again and in wright order.
Here's what I did...I used an older phone to download my modem to since my laptop was down at the time...I then booted into TWRP recovery after I've inserted the extSD card and from there I used TWRP to get modem back..hopefully I understood ur question and this would help you..sorry if it doesn't!

I was trying to upate the SUBinary and it told me to reboot. As soon as I did I get a message saying "Custom Binary Blocked by FRP" and a red text saying "Secure Fail : Kernal" help me.
It has something to do with your Google account being logged into the phone.. samsung can send signal to reset it but they won't if it's been rooted etc still trying to make sure reflash omg the phone with original rom would make it worse or not. Or maybe just reflash in the kernal. I'm on t mobile but can only find original rom on t mobile same network but we will see. I'm on my fiance a accident messaging from her phone lol or maybe just reflash the kernal the whole problem for me is I don't have a computer to try to reflash from what someone told me I may try to reflash with odin 3.90 with a tar file to the exact model number

Worked for my SM-G530W
I had the same problem, and i used Kies3 (not compatible with my phone anyway), but if you go on toolbar to "TOOLS", "Firmware Upgrade and initialisation", it asks you for your device model (for mine i typed SM-G530W, and then it asks you for device serial number (S/N) found under the battery by the IMEI number. After this, follow on screen prompts (Restart your device in Download mode/ PDA, connect USB cable, etc), and let the software download and install (factory rom); After your device restarts, you are good to go (sometimes if it gets stuck on booting, remove battery for few second and start again.) Now you have to go back and set up everything you want, including re-rooting your device... Good luck. (My device is Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G530W Factory unlocked rom, Android 5.11.
So i was rooting my phone with TMWP then my phone was encrypted so i used Odin with an original AP of my samsung device
in the progress of doing that i canceled the progress.
so now i keep getting An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch Pc software. so i did that but now i am at this step, telling me to put the phone in recovery mode but when i try to do that it keeps giving me the same error (An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch Pc software.)
Im freaking out right now if you guys could help PLEASE.

Probably the phone is not detected?

How are you getting to recovery mode?
Should be Vol Down + Home + Power all at the same time
Are you able to power off your device?
If not, press and hold Power + Vol Down until it vibrates or you see it turn completely off, then hold Home (while still holding Power and Vol Down).
Give that a shot to get to recovery.
I had this problem when i tried messing around with TMWP. I dont belive there is one for the S7 egde US models to my knowledge or at least not for att currently due to the us and international models having a different processors International having a Exynos 8890 and US models having a Snapdragon 820. Im pretty sure because of those having different processors TMWP needs to have a build for both processors to my knowledge fix me if im wrong.
Heres what i posted on another thread about trying to flash your phone back to stock and it not working.
Post:
So I would suggest going to this post here and downloading the ODIN 3.12
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711451
I was trying to unroot for a clean root and this one worked for me the one made by PrinceComsy did not work for the flashing the stock ROM but it did work for flashing the ENG Boot ROM. I used 3 out of the 4 file to flash the stock rom I didn't select the BL file at all but you can if you want.
If this help you or you need further/help assistance please feel free to reply to this post

I had the same problem. It is a screen that says something along the lines of 'Update failed' or 'an error occurred during update'. It turned out for me that that actually was recovery mode just with the error screen. Plugging it into Kies on that screen allowed the emergency firmware to work and fix my phone.

My samsung SM-G935FD has the same problem and I tried with Smart Switch and Kies but they say my device is not supported can anyone help???
Hello guys. I know there are many topics about this, but I need a help about my Samsung Galaxy S8 (normal one, not Plus or Edge) G950F.
I tryed many method and I saw many videos and guides, but still it doesnt work.
My Galaxy S8 is brand with Tim (Italy) so I dunno if this could create issues or not.
I downloaded Combination Firmware 8.0 but I always have the error "SW REV. CHECK FAIL (BOOTLOADER) DEVICE: 2, BINARY: 1" on Mobile and Fail on Odin... this just can mean that the Combination Firmware isnt the right one.
I downloaded the right 8.0 Tim Original Firmware and tryed with Odin. It pass and everything go well, but still ask me for the old Account Gmail to verify the Account etc even if Odin did good.
I guess that I need to use that Combination first and put USB Debug (as I'm seeing in many videos) but I can't put this Combination Firmware for the error I said above.
What can I do? What is the right Combination file for a Galaxy S8 8.0 Tim (Italy)? I can't now naither turn on the device because it says to me in loop "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC Software" in a green screen.
Thanks for any help you can give. I just want use back this mobile.
Did you tried to boot in download mode and then use smart switch ? Smart switch can recognize a phone when you boot at recovery. Then try to repair.
Concerning the combination this error mean that the combination file are too old. I had the same issue long time ago ( Device 2 Binary 1).
What mean the Google Gmail thing ? At boot they ask you the mail ? Why don't enter it then ?
Tell me if something worked. Try to find a newer "combination".

I can't enter the Account Verification because the one who used this phone wont tell me the email and psw for it (he was the partner of my mom, but now they fighted and my mom wanted back her's phone.. but now, for vengeance/spite he wont tell us his data). I knew about Combination was old but where can I find the newer one? I am surfing on internet and can't find the right one I tryed many). My Firmware code is 8.0.0/R16NW/G950FXXU2CRED so I need a Combination Firmware eligibile with that.
I cant access the Device to install Smart Switch etc.
You don't need to access to the device. Just download the Samsung utility on your computer and connect your phone thought the download mode.
The name of the Samsung thing is Samsung Kies or something like that. Search for it.
And actually I never saw a phone asking for account verification ... I can't really help if this method don't work.

Or, flash twrp. Obviously the warranty will trip. And then delete everything, also the system. Then install back the firmware through Odin

The combination firmware needs to match the current firmware of the phone. Example if you have CRC7 then you need combination firmware CRC7
Please help, can't find combination file for sm-g9500 for latest upgrades. Firmware G9500ZHU2CRE1
So I am actually not sure what happened to my phone, at first it did not want to go through the Samsung S5 NEO powered by andriod logo, It said custom binary blocked by frp lock in the top left corner. So I did some research and first I found that using Samsung Kies I could fix it but when I put my sin number in it keeps on saying: "please check the model name and s/n and enter them again". So I did some more research and found out my best bet is just to load a rom on to my phone so I got it into download mode, Power+Home+VolumeDownButton and found my phones andriod 6.0.1, The exact andriod that it currently has, I started the process of it sending it to my phone and then when it was done it rebooted and started saying "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emeregency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software. When I put my phones model name and s/n number it again says "please check the model name and s/n and enter them again". I am not sure what to do anymore, I can do nothing with my phone anymore. Is there anyway to get it working again? and hoviously my warranty is voided, but it was exipred by now because I have had the phone for a good 3 years if not longer by now.
Okay so i tried the SamFail Rom / Root. 5 seconds into the root i got an error, a PIT fail code. The phone which is a carrier unlocked one went into an infinite boot loop on the recovery screen, and wouldn't let me enter the recovery options. I tried many hard resets, took out the battery, and even let it drain but nothing helped, it would just boot loops into the downloading update / Error . After all this i decided to try to flash the original firmware into it. Only thing is i didn't write down the software version. But since i have t mobile i thought why not just flash it with the latest tmobile software. So i did.
Now the phone turns on and everything works but it wont connect to the network. IMS registration status is not registered, Mobile network state is Disconnected but it does say T-Mobile which is my carrier.
Under the Odin download mode, before i even flashed it at the top left under carrier IT said SPR so i figured the phone was originally a sprint phone then unlocked and sold by the company. so i also tried the SPRINT software but same thing happens.
Under Co figuring Service it just stays registering then says " Please contact your service provider....." internal error -1.
Under UICC Unlock it says Your device is unlocked for any SIM card but then when i click it, it says SIM unlocking could not be completed please try again later. Internal Error 407.
Any help or insight would be appreciated. i don't care about the root anymore i just want the phone to work normally, Thanks.
---------------------------------------------------------
:Edit - I messed with it enough now it shows LTE service and everything but the. SPRINT OMADM Message wont go away. And the Carrier Hub - Requests are processing wont go away. also i get very minimum service if any at all. . Any help? Thanks.
Click on settings app->apps->click 3 dots button at upper right corner->click show systemapps-> search Sprint OMADM app and force stop it
