Ok I don't even know where to start. The s4 i9507 model is a specific model of the s4 released in Australia on optus network. From what I understand, it is the exact same phone as the s4 i9505. What I am trying to do is flash an unbranded ROM (xsa) for the i9505 onto the i9507. I downloaded the firmware from sammsmobile, but while trying to flash the phone it keeps coming up <ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/003> FAIL! (Auth).
I don't understand why this may be happening. I have rooted the phone, I have read other forums that suggest to wipe the phone altogether?
P.S please only helpful suggestions, I don't need anyone telling me it's not a good idea to flash a ROM that's meant for another version because the i9505 and i9507 are the exact same phone/specs.
Anyone?
Flash i9507 stock firmware.

So is the GT-I9515, yet ROMs from GT-I9505 don't work on it.
Anyway, your problem may be a result of a faulty USB connection or cable. In other words, father USB wants to try another woman's hole

There is no unbranded stock rom for the i9507. It was released specifically for optus australia and asia. So the only stock rom i can get still has the telco's logos on boot up and shut down, I did see if i could find the file to delete them but couldn't see it anywhere

The only helpful solution here is to flash a custom ROM. Attempting to install I9505 firmware on the I9507 will always fail as Odin compares the firmware to the device. Odin will refuse to install the firmware if there is a mismatch.

Funny you say that because odin recognizes the device as an i9505 not what it actually is (i9507)

And yet, Odin rejects it, meaning a mismatch. Ergo, Odin is doing its job and rejecting the ROM you're attempting to install. Therefore the only viable solution is to install a custom ROM.
Could u recomend one thats not full of bloatware? I tried cyanogenmod 13 and it was terrible

Well, I'd consider the entirety of Cyanogenmod to be bloatware since very little testing is done to the source code. However, if you believe Cyanogenmod to be bloatware, then you clearly want to install an AOSP ROM, as that's about as bloatware free as it gets.
If you want unbranded gt-i9507 the only available is the hk version. You can find the firmware here:

hey guys,
i tried the new rom by civato, for this i flashed the NE6 bootloader. the rom didn't work as expected (no data) so i tried to restore the stock rom NB7 via odin.
odin said succes, but the phone did not boot. i flashed cwm and flashed som roms from there, but i always got a freeze/bootloop, even after factory reset.
so i tried a full new flash with nand erase all. flash succeded, but i could not boot.
then i downloaded the N9005ZHUENE6 firmware from hongkong and tried to flash it, but odin always fails. now i get the "firmware upgrade encountered an issue." message and can't do anything with the phone anymore.
Can you please help me?
thank you in advance!
edit: problem solved, the NE4 pit file from sajjjjjjad did the job!

Head over to the HK thread(s) and see how to restore back to normal with Hong Kong variants it's a little different (you do have a HK version I assume? and not just risked an HK FW flash?)--- You can flash via ODIN again even with that error on the device.

Is there a difference between the international N9005 and the HK variant? my N9005 is from germany. i flashed the german firmware again and the error is gone, but the device is still in the bootloop..

Very slightly yes. More to do with some HK Software issues, that's the only N9005 firmware which shouldn't/can't be flashed on every device model N9005 - regarding your bootlooping.
Grab a PIT file, sort out what firmware you use and match them, then flash via Odin, there are a few guides and it's pretty straightforward, however you need to read properly or you risk a hard-brick.

I flashed the latest DBT firmware a couple of times, with a PIT file and without, with full nand erase and without. Odin always says passed but i get no boot sound and the device gets stuck at the boot animation.
I think the problem could be the NE6 bootloader i flashed, but if i flash the NE6 again after i flashed the NB7 firmware it doesn't boot either. Is it possible to downgrade the bootloader to another KitKat firmware?

You can use www.sammobile.com/firmwares.
Make sure you have the correct pit file as you changed it to the hk version before

on this site i can't find a NE5 version. i flashed the ND6, device didn't boot.
so i tried to flash cwm, worked fine. then i was able to install and boot the latest cm11, but the baseband, min, prl-version, meid, imei and iccid are shown as unknown. so i tried to restore the efs backup i made via terminal emulator, it looks like it worked but when i reboot nothing changed.
any other ideas?

Why can't I flash a stock rom from a different country? Odin says "FAIL! Size".
Hey guys,
Got a G900I from Taiwan. I live in Australia. I went to www.sammobile.com and downloaded the latest unbranded Australia rom. Went to flash it with Odin. Odin got about 95% through then failed saying "FAIL! Size".
Any idea what the issue is? I the successfully flashed the latest Taiwan rom with no issues. I can deal with using the Taiwan rom, I'm just more curious what the issue is from a learning stand point. I never had any problems like this with my S3 and flashing other country's roms.

On Galaxy Note 3, Taiwan and Hong Kong devices are NOT compatible with other stock firmwares. It is due to they have different PIT files.
So it may also be the case with the S5.

Ok, BRI is for Taiwan.
In order to flash unbrand firmware on your phone, you should have PIT file from that firmware, and flash this PIT file together with the firmware via Odin.

You can ask someone who owns S5 in this forum for help. It needs root to extract the PIT file.
in order to extract the PIT file, install Terminal Emulator and enter the following commands:
Code:
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/S5.pit bs=8 count=580 skip=2176
Then copy the S5.pit file on the sdcard.
BTW, can you upload your PIT file from your own Taiwan S5?
Sure. Here ya go.

New to the forum but I do know a bit about custom ROMS and flashing (I think)
So basically, I own a Chinese variant Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9508) that is rooted and currently in Android 4.3 Jellybean. Recently I saw some sites with unofficial firmware updates for this model (I9508) to Android 5.0.1 Lollipop and decided to give it a go at flashing. Tried about 3 different MD5 files using Odin v3.10, but every time it would fail, saying that no PIT files are found. So I then proceeded to look for PIT files for the I9508 model online, without any success. Do I need a PIT file for this? Or am I missing something else?
Dunno what's going on. Any answers will be much appreciated
thx

Are you sure you are running stock Lollipop?
And are you sure it is a G900F?

Yep, can't remember if Lollipop locks the bootloader on the G900P or not, but you should be able to 'upgrade' at least if it does

Try the latest for the G900P with ODIN, see how you get on
Looks like whoever you bought it from, has either modded the build.prop to display G900F info, or manage to flash enough of a G900F ROM to show that info
I can flash a G900T ROM without the bootloader and modem, and it shows G900T on my phone, but the phone is G900F
Either way, if download mode says G900P, that's your model

If you flashed a stock Samsung ROM, whatever was done to your phone prior to flashing this ROM is the problem - if it says G900P in download mode, and G900F in About and on the sticker, someone had changed something in order to make it look like a G900F (Likely because they are more popular)

I have galaxy s4 GT-I9500. And since it with Rogers or At&T i was looking for i337m rom.
I had resurrection rom on it, although the modem would not detect any sim cards
I was thinking to reflash it to stock rom using odin and used the following guide: https://trueandroid.com/en/i337mvlu...-s4-sgh-i337m-canada-test-build-how-to-guide/
Odin would complain that it could not repartitions using JFLTE_CAN_OPEN.pit
So i following the rest of the instructions without pit file, and odin would get stuck at recovery.
I have also tried to get another official rom: I337MVLUGOH1_I337MOYAGOH1_I337MVLUGOH1_HOME.tar.md5, although i would get stuck at writing nand.
The phone right now is on "firmware encountered an issue" screen
Any suggestion on how to fix this issue? and I have also tried odin 1.85 to 3.10
If the phone is a gt-i9500, you can't flash stock firmware from another phone like the sgh-i337m. The 9500 and 337m have different hardware.

All the I9500 ROMs are for Europe and the Middle East. Since your device is apparently unlocked, you can flash any of them. They're all the same, with the only difference being the apps that are bundled with them. For you, the best ROM from Sammobile will be one that isn't tied to a carrier, which for the I9500 is most of them. You can tell these from the rest by the lack of a carrier name, e.g. Vodafone.
