Hello guys,
As the title says, I need a Galaxy S5 stock rom with an austrian "A1"-branding.
Here all infos you'll need:
Model: SM-G900F
S/N: G900FGSMH
Baseband: G900FXXU1CPI9
I hope so much someone can help.
Every rom I've found on the internet was scam or didn't work.
I need it because my phonen is "A1"-sim-locked and it's running on Cyanogenmod, but with CM you can't sim-unlock the phone.
thanks in advance for help
look for it in samsony.net

no clue how reputable samsony.net is, but sammobile.com/firmwares is THE legit place to get tar.md5's. Slow as all hell, but its the source from whence they came

md5-error and extracting/installation error
re-downloading didn't work, so i don't think it's corrupted
I think the downloaded file is incomplete.
Try to extract the downloaded file with Winrar or 7zip.
If you see any error during extracting the firmware, your zip file has an error.
If you flash the firmware with odin, the program will check the md5-checksum of the file.
If you do not see any error message, the firmware file will be error free.
If the firmware zip file is t corrupt, download it again with another internet browser or CLEAN the internet browser cache first!
Sometimes the browser does not download the whole file again, because parts of it are in the browser cash!
Good luck!

forgot the samsung for a while and found this post again but had to create a new account.
so... i just flashed the newest rom from the link u sent me.
i did it like in this tutorial -> updato.com/how-to/how-to-install-an-official-samsung-stock-firmware-using-odin
newest odin version
fresh downloaded file
extracting zip (with .tar.md5 file in it)- no extraction problems
flashing file - no errors
got a bootloop though.

(during writing this, i had the idea to wipe the device and then try it again.)
...EDIT: IT WORKED!!! after wiping the data and flashing the firmware again. it worked! thank you all for all answers !!!!!

I'm uploading it to Box, and I'll link it here when it is done.

It's pieced into 3 parts, so use programs like Winzip or 7-zip and extract as normal.

hi, thks a lot for ur reply and +1 thanks
Ok so i was trying to root my SGS and got stuck in the first step.
It says after u download the zip u unzip and there is supposed to be a .tar file.
But after i unzipped mine was another zip so i unzipped that and there was some weird file called : zImage
Its not a tar file so says my computer. Is it supposed to be like that? Any help will be thanked.
So i tried rooting my phone and it didn't work, i am on gingerbread and have no experience about SGS but have some experience about android.
So after i failed my root i tried turning on the phone but this weird picture of a phone/yellow triangle/computer
And it won't let me turn on the phone fully, i can only go to download mode and nothing else. i have tried hard reset but not working.
Please help!

You have to flash a complete stock rom to get the phone to work
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9000 mit Tapatalk
Start with settings in Windows file manager = show file extensions (like .tar .zip .txt .exe)
Depending on what program used to unzip, .zip and .tar might have same icons. Show file extension to see difference.

thats what i did and this is what happened.
do i have to flash to stock rom again or can i just root again and it will
boot?
The zimage file is contained in the .tar, but still you need to flash the .tar file...
.Tar files seem like zip files and can be extracted, so to solve the windows showing the file as zipped do as O-T said:

Then start ODIN with administrator privileges and use the .tar file (ONLY TAR FILES) as PHONE, do not choose any other file and certainly dont tick re-partition, after all are ready (and your phone is in download mode and recognized by ODIN) press start.
If you failed and see the screen with "Phone/YellowTriangle/Computer" do not worry, just pull out the phone battery, leave it with battery off for 30 secs, put the battery back in, get your phone to download mode (guess you are putting your phone to download mode before flashing, right?) and try again using the instructions that you have read in all those posts!

if saw i would replace it with other phone
can any one just answer it simply
thats what i gues : no software , kernel source downloads available for this device . i even tried to contact htc about lp update and the Simply don't know
I think the lollipop firmware is here
http://ir-file.com/portal/index.php?dir=Firmware/HTC/HTC_Android/A50ML_DTUL/
We shouldn't expect any lollipop firmware unless maybe we flash it.
My phone had lollipop out of the box but I flashed kitkat so that I could root it and modify it, but I found it to be too boring, I'm looking to revert to lollipop
You try and tell me if it worked

Ok
So I downloaded the zip file sized about 1.8gb.
On extracting the zip file, I only get three files:
Android - info. txt - 92B
Userdata.img - 136034KB
Cache.img - 6972KB
I don't know where the other files have disappeared to

Yes I can delete them. I tried contacting them, they said it's an encrypted zip file couldn't be extracted. Don't know how it's going to be flashed
Here
Extracted
can you provide me the download link directly , i don't have to make an account ,,,,, whatever it is i will start porting sense 7 form desire820 lolipop , i will see if i can
but i need to make sure that htc has forgot about us
Deleted
So when I repaired the zip file with winrar, I was able to recover these files.
Scatter file shows HTC_A50ML which is the D820ys, it comes with Lollipop out of the box.
This zip file is encrypted, only if one could find a password to crack it, or if someone has the knowhow to extract this kind of files
d820ts
is this update available for d820ts???

I downloaded the UAE file & when I opened it it changed all my browser setting in IE & chrome & filled my PC full of SH IT.
DO NOT DOWNLOAD - SPYWARE!!!!!
Do not use the links.
User reported, stay away from the links.
It downloads an .exe file which contains malware. Please remember that firmware files do not come use '.exe' file format and the file size should also be a give away.

I never saw someone uploading a zip64 file as a rom, are you sure about what you're doing? ?
Anyway, try extracting it onto the pc hdd/ssd making sure you have enough space to do it, then put the rom on the phone's sd card via usb cable, that should do it :good:
Btw, what rom are you trying to flash?

I'm trying to flash nougat firmware, but cannot to extract the firmware, always stuck on 90% (can't read I/O device error). When I see the firmware info on winrar it seem that use zip64 archive format (zip64 library), because the content after extracting is 3gb, I think that's the problem while extracting. My laptop is low specification, also I'm trying to transfer to another pc using usb flashdisk but I got stuck while transferring, transfer failed. I never seem like this before , cannot to transfer unable to extract, wtf? Firmware corrupted? I think not.

Since I never had to deal with zip64 format (I always ended up downloading only zip file ready to flash), can you share the link where you downloaded the firmware? Let's see if it's a hardware problem or a bad file

The firmware is downloaded from samsung-firmware.org, region asia INS. I was download marshmallow firmware too and flash it to my phone but I don't see any problem while extracting the firmware, I'm using another pc with operating system window 10 64bit. I think the problem is my pc can't handle/read zip64 format even using winrar or 7-zip with latest version. The dialogue show error mssg "problem read file, I/O device error".

On the site you linked, every firmware is in zip format, so ready to flash. I can't find any zip64 archive.
If you still face the problem, try looking up the firmware on sammobile

I'm not sure is the firmware in zip format or zip64 format, but while repairing the firmware it detect as zip64, don't know. Maybe the firmware is brocken, damage, cause trying to extract many times. Anyway thanks for help.
Maybe the file is corrupt.Changing compression method won't help.You can't repair an archive.Just download it again.
