so i followed the instructions here on how to flash 935U to my verizon variant and i cant get the ODIN process to work. keis and smart switch tell me my phone isnt supported because i tried to restore the phone.. help please. i followed the instructions which are simple to follow. i put my phone in download mode. started odin and loaded all the files and it failed. what can i do now.. waiting for the stock firmare to dowload now but its taking forever
oh and just incase this is why. im on a mac running windows 10 bootcamp. maybe i dont have some drivers needed ?
Head to sammobile and get the official 935v firmware again, or download through samfirm. Make sure you have ODIN 3.12 and leave the phone unplugged and in dl mode. Unzip the fw files and place them in the appropriate boxes (bl, ap, cl, csc) and once they are all in Odin plug your phone in. If the box goes blue as recognized you are hits to press start. Tart will get you back to original asks try again.
And get a pc, lol
thanks for the reply
i have a pc but i am at school for 2 months without it.. i booted windows just to get by for now.
i downloaded the firmware from sammobile and it may have been currupt becasue it didnt work as well. i am worried but i dont think its hardbricked. i just cant seem to figure out why i cant flash the 935U FW

I wouldnt worry about U. Get V back up and then there is whole separate U thread here with a lot of tweaks. If anything else, look at the PH1 firmware thread (may be under beta thread) and try flashing that, then update to PI3.
are there steps i am not informed on like do certain files need to be in folders together or do i need to run something that was left out in the instructions? i have rooted and flashed with odin before and it always seems to be an interesting experience to say the least. but seriously im getting soooo pissed off right now
yeah tried odin 3. 12 with stock firmware.. put the home file in and the other 3 files in the right places.. still failed.. any other advice?
putting all these files on a flash drive and taking them over to a regular pc to see if this helps.. im really at a loss. this should be EASY right now seriously easy. how am i screwing this up!
tried another computer... didnt work. tried different files and methods.. nothing works.. tried verizon repair tool...joke..... tried everything.
It sounds like Odin/PC is not seeing the phone when it's plugged in. Do you have the Samsung drivers loaded?

I didn't really explain my situation well sorry. I went through all the steps to unroot my s4 but I ended up with slightly different firmware than what I originally had so wifi wont even turn on and kies does not detect the device at all. Right now I am reflashing to see if that helps.

The flash came up as fail on odin 3 times and I seem to be in the same place with no wifi. I found out the rom I got was not the correct rom because this one comes with alot more bloatware and some of the icons are different but it was the only one I could find that didnt fail when I downloaded it (I got suckered into trying to get a different one from the sites that have you pay for download speed).

Try going to sammobile.com and download the Kies software. The article you cite is from 2013 and I know the software has been updated since then. You should search in the Q&A section on how to update using Kies. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-sprint/help) Not sure if there will be anything there or not but you will not finding anything in this section about it. There are several ways to update to KitKat in that section. I have never really used Kies so I cannot help you with using the software itself.

You can't use kies, that is for official releases direct from Samsung. You need to download Odin, preferably 3.07 or 3.09 since you are installing Kit Kat. Download the NAE Stock Tar file from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2663619 it is a fast download. Extract the tar file from the zip you downloaded. Open Odin with administration privileges and load the TAR file into the PDA slot (3.07) or AP slot (3.09). Place your phone in Download mode and connect it to your computer. Once the phone is recognized by odin click the start button and let it run. You can get Odin here: http://odindownload.com/
I will try that tonight thanks again

K, I'm trying to fix my friends verizon note 3, it's stuck in dl mode with the error "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please use software Repair assistant & try again". Phone will NOT connect to kies, I get an error saying "This phone is not supported". My version of kies does see my att n3 just fine though. I can connect to odin it looks like. Cannot boot into recovery, it just boots into dl mode with the error message. Unknown how the phone got in this state.

downloading mj7 from here, I'm just in the dark about what I have on the phone, it just needs to be stock non-rooted. Didn't know if flashing the .tar would break it if I have a different firmware. I don't know how to find out if the phone won"t boot.

Whut? Could it be? Ha ha, back from the dead. Only took about 6 hours total. Messed with kies for almost 3 hours before I gave up. Downloaded 2 versions of kies twice, drivers multiple times, 2 .tar files, tried 6 different usb cords...
Thanks for your help @Harleydroid, much appreciated.
Ans a screenie of my slightly modded att n3 for your perusal and enjoyment.
Welp, I'm pretty sure I messed this up. Found a YouTube video (not even sure which one at this point, sorry) that was recently uploaded detailing how to root a Galaxy S7 Edge. Downloaded the firmware, opened up Odin, put it into Download mode, selected the Qualcomm firmware version for the AP field, and click start. It flashed correctly (according to Odin) and the phone began restarting and didn't stop. Just show's the "Galaxy S7 Edge" screen, goes black, and starts over.
I tried downloading the stock firmware for Sprint, load the appropriate files into Odin, and click start, I then get this output:

And on the phone, I see:
My build number is NRD90M.G935PVPS5BRA1, kernel version 3.18.31-12623509
I'm fairly certain this is entirely something that could have been avoided had I read more guides or instructions. Unfortunately, here I am! I really appreciate any help anyone can give me. I've been Googling and reading all morning, and I'm sure the answer is there, but I'll be damned if I can see it.
While I don't think there's much important info here, I figure it's at least showing some more in terms of version and name:
Your binary boot is v5. It won't work and you can't downgrade at the moment. What are you trying to do with root? There are many non root alternatives. To fix your bootloops, odin the stock firmware again.
Make sure you have the special version of odin too.
Also, download the stock firmware again. Try updato.com or plug the firmware version into android file host

I don't know why I did not put together the relevance of firmware and the build number, but that was the issue all along it seems! After a dozen different cables, ports, and firmware versions I finally realized I needed to plug in the whole build number to find the firmware for that build specifically. Once flashed, the phone rebooted, asked to restore the backup based on the Google account, and it can text and make calls! Thank you so much for the help, I really appreciate it. I'll be sure to read and research a lot more before the next attempt to root a phone.

Glad it worked out...we all have been there at some point. Any reason you wanted to root? There may be some non-root alternatives available.

Hi. During the update to Android 10 the phone turned off and after switching on it goes into recovery mode.
The phone is not mine and this description was provided to me by the owner of the phone. I was unable to see the phone directly because of the quarantine, so as a first solution I thought about a restore via odin. Has anyone had this problem? And is there a less drastic way than Odin to solve? Because the owner has some data that he would prefer not to lose.

How did you get android 10 on j530f?
I get the same messages when I enter recovery but I'm able to get out. You could use odin to reflash the firmware but keep all the data.
You won't be able to do a thing with Odin if the device doesn't have an unlocked bootloader and USB debugging enabled which I doubt it has seeing as it's a stock update that was attempted.
What happens to the device once plugged into a PC? Is the data corrupt or is the device recognized and files can be seen?
I have the same problem with almost the same recovery messsges. It also says dm verity failed. Odin and samsung 300k tool both dont work.

Not even to flash a stock firmware? It seems strange to me, in the past I have often used odin on my S2 also for the stock ROM.
The device always reboot in recovery, I don't think the PC can see it.

Hi, the details were given to me by another person, the only thing that I (and this person knows) is that the phone during an update has turned off and reboots in the attached image window.
Thanks for the tips, I will report it to the person concerned, hoping that he can install the twrp.

Put the j5ylte update onto sd card.
Get the update from updato or sammobile or somewhere.
Then reboot stock recovery and apply update from sd card. Or sideload it using adb on a computer. Not very complicated at all
Install the stock rom like i described here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/help/to-stock-rom-t4099857
