i cant odin wont let me s5 keeps connecting disconnecting tried other usb's same result

Can you explain further? How can you say you can't? Does it go to download mode? Download mode is totally separate from bootloader so as long as you can go there even if you don't have any bootloader it should work.

Help with brick

Hello
I have F version, country Italy
I tried install a few roms but I always had freeze screen and reboots. So finally tried restore from Odin and I had brick. I used the last firmware from Odin and one from this forum of "Fast download" And this only shows the bootimage and reboot again of freeze
In download mode shows in System: "custom", Recovery: Samsung Oficial
I cant enter on recovery mode
Im not sure if Samsung I still give me "warranty"
Anybody can help me ?
PD: sorry4myenglish

best bet is to try and flash another ROM if you can get into download mode still (making sure that you flash a ROM for the right version of your phone).
Samsung probably wont honor warranty as you tripped KNOX when flashing in the first place (that voids your warranty and I belive download mode states this)
EDIT:
the right version for you is the first link on the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s6-...icial-stock-roms-firmware-aoj5-g928f-t3231589
as long as you have the SMG928F version from Italy

well it might be a corrupt download, but theres no MD5 for the files form that thread to match.
Can you enter download mode? If so then I would probably flash a custom recovery and install custom ROM just to get the phone running again.

I just tried enter but only shows the message "recovery mode is senandroid enforcing" then shows (after 1 min maybe) the screen like a tv without signal

Some days ago I had exactly the same problem as you. You need to download "Smart Switch" on PC (something like samsung kies) and then recovery your phone through it. This samsung app will download a new system and completly repair your phone, after that if you want to install audax rom or something else you MUST go to developer options and enable USB DEBUGGING and OEM UNLOCK or you will have the same problem after rebooting phone.
Hope it helps, I bricked my phone for 1 day and managed to repair it with it. ODIN and all other stuff didn't worked.

Nice, I did not know that SmartSwitch for PC had build in recovery tools, but that is good to know.

That message means that SElinux is enforced and the way around that is a custom kernel as the stock on is forcing it always.

Natherul after I bricked my phone by installing audax and the unchecking in dev options "oem unlock" Smart Switch was the only one thing that actually unbricked my phone :good:

Hard brick SM-N910F

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?

Hello! If this is the good recovery for the N910F he would have from start.
Try to boot via the recovery flight up + home + power.
If you TWRP flash a custom in a first time rom

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.
(In download mode, with the key combination)

Can you share Odin screenshot or Odin log?

Use an older version of smartswitch from June or so last year (https://www.filehorse.com/download-samsung-smart-switch/23771/) choose the 17022 version, go to emergency recovery option and select device initialization, the newer versions of smartswitch dont allow this any more, type in model number SM-G950F, put in serial number and it should reinitialise yr phone.

samsung s10+ bootloop

so here goes my story. My s10+ end the battery and when I charge it, started bootlooping. I really don't understand why thats happening to me. I tried everything, safe mode reset, hard reset, wipe cache and installing a new firmware, i used three diferentes Odins and dosen't work. I did a lot of questions here and I really appreciate for the help, but this is the end I think, if someone knows what more else can I do it, please tell me.
PS:sorry for the grammar, I'm brazilian guy

Charge your phone for some time and see if it turns on and if it does go to download mode or emergency recovery screen is download mode too and try the following steps
1. While your phone is on the Emergency Recovery Screen or download mode, connect it to the computer.
2. Open Odin and load all the firmware files. Download the original firmware file
3. You will find that Odin has already detected your phone.
4. The options checked in Odin should be F.Reset.Time and Auto-Reboot.
5. After making all the preparations, click on the “Start” button in Odin.
6. Let the firmware flashing end. Once done, disconnect the phone and let it turn on. You will be out of the Emergency Recovery/Download mode Screen now.
IMP: Download the original firmware file for your phone
