This thread is gonna get moved to Q&A, but, before it does...
First, try to boot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache. If that doesn't work, you're probably going to need to flash a stock firmware via Mobile ODIN or the PC version of ODIN.
See the stickied thread with official firmwares in this section, then search XDA for how to flash via ODIN (I highly recommend Mobile ODIN). That should do the trick.

i have make all wipe but not change.i have flashed with odin 1.85 the stock firmware but is the same!

tell us a bit more detail how u flash and what u flash via odin

i have flashed the firmware P6800XXLA3 CSC ATO.with odin 1.85.but remainig in bootloop

Assuming that your download mode is fine
Can you enter recovery mode? What recovery. Stock or CWM?
If yes.. Your cache and dalvik need to be clean up..
When flashing with odin, Dont check repartition or use pit files, you dont need it except you know what to do..

I advise you to flash your machine with the following firmware ..... (see photo)

Install cwm recovery and download custom ROM from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520888
Move your zip file to sdcard / external sd card, and install from recovery,.. Tell me what happen after you done..

I did but not change!!!I 'never happened!this is not a BRICK.What you can 'do?
thanks

Have you done the Samsung stock recovery 3e data wipe/factory reset
And then reflash your stock firmware.
CWM data wipe or format is not good enough.
you might have to remove external sd card if 3e recovery goes to 'manual mode'.

i did exactly,but is the always the same:bootloop!!!is possible there is a virus?is possible to flash a firmware with Odin,with Bootloader and Pit?

excusme but i dont undestended the 3e recovery how i install.

my rooted GT7.7 with CWM also experience similar problem.
It stuck in the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7" screen for around 5 mins and go into animation then growing "SAMSUNG" logo for another 5 mins.
Then finally it boot up normally. 8'(

Odin Firmware Package Problems I9505G

So I created an Odin Firmware Package for the I9505G that included only the system.img.ext4, boot, and recovery images for 4.2.2 MFD. The problem is that I cannot create a modem package it fails everytime either when I package it with or without the system build. As far as I know this would be the NON-HLOS and modem.bin files.
Additionally I am having a hard time making a Full Restore Package for 4.3 MH1 which has everything and that fails too. Here is what I have to work with and I have used Cygwin and Powerarchiver both to try to package these but as I have said only system.img.ext4, boot, and recovery flash and pass. The bootloaders fail specifically right when aboot.mbn flashes it fails.
I've reviewed other packages for other S IV varients and tried packaging them similar but still fail.
I think the boot loader assertation has something to do with it
Can someone give me some good direction on what I need to do, am missing ect..ect..

SOLVED THE MODEM ISSUE with the Help of SamuriHL modding some hash value. Thanks

Could you explain more detail on how did you resolve the modem issue?

Also the files werent named properly, I don't know if that matters or not. For anyone thats curious, heres how the files should be named. This is from a custom odin tar I made for MDK.

For successful flash in Odin, modem and non-hlos parts should be signed by samsung. Signature is at the end of file. But if you dump these parts from device, they will be padded by zeroes to the partition size.
So, after dumping, you need to cut padded zeroes from the "tail". Just start to look the first non-zero byte from the end of dump. And then cut after that byte.
And then you will have valid modem and non-hlos parts. You can TAR them and then flash through Odin.
I highly don't recommend to flash those sbl, aboot, rpm, tz parts. Although they are signed (and will require procedure i've described above), the risk of brick is very high if somehow you flash non-compatible to each other one of these parts.
So, dump them and keep in the safe place for some emergency case, but don't flash them neither separately nor as whole firmware package.
It's ok to flash these parts if you get them inside new OFFICIAL firmware from Samsung server, but avoid to flash them from any dumped firmware.

S5 G900F problem. Urgent help needed please!

I've just bought a Galaxy S5 G900F. It was rooted, with Alliance rom. SE secure was showing G900T but the rest was G900F and it says this on the phone under the battery.
It didn't have a recovery on it but I was able to flash TWRP recovery.
Everything appears to be for the G900F model, but the kernel and the modem are showing the G900T which is the T-Mobile US version. When I am in download mode, it shows a product name of G900T. When I try to flash a rom or modem, it gives a fail notice in download mode which reads 'aboot'. The phone doesn't appear to be bricked, possibly soft bricked.
I really don't know what to do now. I'm struggling to even flash a stock rom. Flashing via recovery has failed, as well as via Odin on a PC.
If anyone can help, I'd be extremely grateful. I can't even try to return it in this condition.

How did you flash the recovery exactly?
Did you try performing a factory reset and wiping the cache partition before flashing?

Yes, we did that with the Skipsoft toolkit.

Grab ODIN and a stock ROM from sammobile dot com and flash it from download mode

Hi. Tried that but it failed

Can anyone suggest anything else please? Pretty desperate!

You can flash roms in different ways: Odin, Fastboot and through a custom recovery.
Did you try flashing the rom by using your TWRP recovery?
You can choose to install a zip.
Steps are found here:
http://highonandroid.com/android-roms/how-to-install-custom-rom-using-twrp-recovery-failproof-method/

Yes, tried this. To make it worse, Samsung are refusing to fix it, as it was previously rooted by the previous owner

I would try flashing a different kernel.
If that doesn't help, try unrooting and rooting with cf auto root.

@joekeee we can't mount the internal memory via recovery to send a file over

There's no rom to boot up anything with anymore. We need a link to some kernels. Would you know where?

SD card?
You can flash kernels with Odin as well.
When you say flashing the custom rom has failed, was there an error message in Odin or on the device?
What does it do after flashing, nothing, bootloop, ...?

In download mode, the error message was "aroot". Same thing in Odin "failed aboot".

SD card?
What Odin version are you using?
Does it say anything else but aboot?

On bootup, it stays on the S5 screen. Nothing else.

Going to try the SD card....

Not writing to NAND

What Odin version are you using?
For this problem some suggest v3.04 or v3.07.

[Q] Error when upgrading to 5.0. Help!

I have been attempting to install the OTA update and keep getting the same error. I even did a full wipe, tried again, and got the same error.
I had root up until about 6 months ago, in case that matters. Currently on 4.4.2
/system/bin/ddexe has unexpected contents
error in /cache/update.zip
(Error 7)
How can I upgrade to 5.0?

I have the same problem. I was rooted and then tried the download. I'm a noob. I found out later that you have to un-root it, download the update, then re-root it. however, I'm in limbo now. After trying to install the update, SuperSU says "There is no binary installed". I was going to use SuperSU to un-root.
Originally after rooting I used RootChecker to confirm. After trying to do the update, rootchecker says I'm not rooted. So, I can't unroot it, and I can't re-root it (I don't think). I'm just in limbo.
Can anyone help us?

Odin the stock tar.

Not exactly sure I understand.

You have to download the stock ng2 tar file from here or sammobile and install with odin, then you will be able to take the ota update. You can't just unroot. You probably modded some stock files when you were rooted which in turn will cause the update to fail. Things like the hotspot mod will cause the update to fail for example. That is why you need to odin the stock tar so that you have a complete official install including recovery, bootloader, and all system files.

I'm getting the exact same error, but I'm running bone-stock. Not rooted, nothin. I still receieve the exact same error.
I have tried clearing the cache partition and waitint for the OTA update to re-download; same error.
Any ideas? I would prefer not to have to use third-party software to install it, if possible.
Thanks in advance.

I'm having the same problem as Evelmike. I'm unrooted, and the update fails to install.

Are you running a custom recovery?

Just run the OD2 tar in Odin. Doesn't matter of your phone is rooted or not.

Before I tried to flash the firmware mentioned above, another samsung official was installed:
G928FXXU4CRF4_G928FOXA4CRE1_BTU
Now any attempt to flash former binary will also fail (because older bootloader??)
I'm stuck here Please help!

Which version is currently installed? (you can check it in recovery mode)
Most likely you are not able to install former version because it has an older bootloader.
In my case "S5" ist installed, so I am not able to downgrade to "U4", which was installed before

Use samfirm for your newest firmware and use the region option for your current region. (it should work properly) if you get hidden.img failure, remove from package and repack .tar

Use updato.com to download latest firmware with full speed download.

I'm having the same issue. I wiped everything with TWRP and was going to reinstall the OS, but I'm getting the same fail as you do. I'm trying to flash the same version as I did before wiping everything.
Any ideas?

You just saved me! Thanks a lot! I thought I was stuck on CM 14.1. Just removing hidden.img fixed my flashing issues.

same here always stuck or error on modem.img so after unclick hidden.img use z3x it worked mine is G928GUBS5CRH1

Or you can try with this. Fix the phone is bricked, black screen and more by flash a new ROM for Samsung Galaxy phone. Maybe not the newest firmware, but works perfectly.
