How to unbrick s3 neo ?! - Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone, i was testing whether editing the build.prop file changes the settings displayed in about device. I edited the build.prop of my s3 changed the product name and model to s5 but unfortunately i did not make a backup of my current rom and now the screen shows s3 neo logo and then shuts down. I can still access the stock recovery but my question is should i find stock rom of s5 since build.prop is now s5 which bricked the phone or should i find stock rom for s3 ? please it's urgent any help would be appreciated!. and if anyone has the rom which i need to install please upload it somewhere

Either flash the rom/firmware or find & copy the S3 Neo BUILD.PROP (to root/system) with costume recovery & change permissions as according.
I don't know how you got to the idea to put S5 build.prop in the first place.

Download s3 neo's stock firmware and flash it using odin
or if u want to try any other custom roms u can flash a custom recovery via odin then go into recovery and flash the particular custom rom....

[Q] Need help with ATT galaxy s5

Hello, i want to go back to stock rom on my galaxy s5. I am not bricked or anything like that. Every tutorial i look at, it involves using odin, and i cannot do that. I am on the Extreme Debloat ATT V1 running 4.4.2 kitkat. I don't have a md5 file to flash yet because i do not want to download a wrong file and screw up my phone. I don't have a computer at the time, so is there any way i can just download the file straight from my phone and copy it to root and go to recovery and wipe the device and then flash? thank you!

[Q] Need Help!!!!!! Phone Stuck at Samsung Logo

I am currently new to all this stuff so i dont have an exact idea what i was doing
First of all i rooted my Device I9500 Which had 5.0.1 Android
then i installed TWRP Recovery and then i was not able to backup any stuff to External SD Card so i installed some Boot.img which i exactly dont remember which i installed from watching any youtube video then later some problem occured It showed some error like "firmware upgrade encountered an issue" then i flashed Philz touch recovery which then worked and i was able to backup my data but i was not able to Boot into my Original ROM or couldnt see an option for that. Then i downloaded The Ozcan V6.3 ROM and tried installing it it succesfully installed but after that its not able to boot uo and stuck at SAMSUNG Logo Screen.
Please Help me What to DO !!!.
Thanks In Advance
If your device can still get into download mode, download the stock Android 5.x image for your device and flash it using Odin. That will get you back to square one so you can start over with rooting and installing the custom ROM.
I had the same problem on my gs4. It would only go to galaxy logo so I flashed the lollipop firmware via odin and all is well.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app
Just have to flash the default one with Odin ?
i also backed up my old data with philz to my sd card that also and i also downloaded a new Default 5.0.1 ROM ?
Which one should i flash ?
and whats the critera for finding ROMs leaving the model number ? (noob question)
Is the S4 unlocked? If not, what country are you in and what carrier do you have?
My Country is India and its the International Version I9500 and i am not pretty sure that it was unlocked or not .but it was rooted and recovery was installed
Added later :
I just installed recovery back and then tried to install ROM the ROM was also stuck on the Boot Loop I think my boot loader isnt unlocked and ima stuck there because of that
I9500 isnt bootloader locked. And u must be flashing the boot.img on other partition that not in the odin package. So u must search how to repartition ur device. But. U MUST VERY CAREFULL WITH REPARTITION OPTION! U MIGHT BRICK UR DEVICE IF U DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT U DOING!. And if u wanna flash recovery and boot.img or bootloader thing. U must ONLY flash for I9500 version!. And if u successfully repartition ur device. U will lose all internal storage too. Ok good luck

You would know if you were carrier unlocked as you'd be able to put a SIM from a different carrier into the S4 and have the device work. To get you the correct ROM we still need to know your carrier.
secure download : enabled
Hi my galaxy s4 gt i9500 is stuck in a bootloop. When is boot I get "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again"... when I boot into download mode I see "secure download : enabled" which wasn't usually there. Am trying to flash the pit file with twrp but Odin is failing.... is it because of the secure download enabled?? Please help me
You can't flash the PIT file with TWRP.
Do you have Odin? Do you have a copy of your stock ROM, downloaded either from Sammobile or samsung updates? If not, you'll need to get them. You then flash the firmware through Odin WITHOUT the PIT file. This should restore your device to operating condition. Afterward, you will of course need to root the S4 and flash a copy of TWRP to be able to install a custom ROM.
Carrier is Airtel

Samsung Galaxy S4 (International LTE) jfltexx original stock recovery

Samsung Galaxy S4 (International LTE) jfltexx original stock recovery
Hi guys I recently super bricked my phone.
I could not enter recovery TWRP 2.8.7.0
I could not boot to system (had cyanogen 12.1)
Basically whenever went to one of those options it froze. The only way to fix it was to go into download mode and flash the original stock recovery with odin. Took me a while to get both but it worked. I wanted to make this thread so people in the same boat would know what to do and have the file .
Hopefully I did this correctly ! I will edit and make this thread more smoothly so googlers will be able to find it.

Flash done with stock rom

I need samsung galaxy m30s ins stock recovery file only....I installed twrp but failed to root now I want to remove twrp so I need stock recovery...image of build number has been attached.
I know it's a lot but if nobody sends you the stock recovery maybe you should try downloading the whole firmware and extracting it yourself.
I already flash stock rom thanks for replying... close this thread....
