This is not to get you to use Lestatious, but download 1.4.5. Since you can't reflash, it will restore your system.

maybe the answer is stupid, but you know that you have to be in "download mode" to flash a rom with odin ?!?!

Ok i managed to FIX IT haha thank GOD... all i had to do was to reflash the same rom i had before the XXJP8 .. i think the bootloader got messed up or something... im now to be honest scared to flash something else just so i wont brick it again hehe.
im just glad i fixed it ... so everyone that gets this error
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuNEaNFBMdU
my suggestion is to flash SAME rom they had before it got bricked.... i had XXJP8 and i redownloaded that from samfirmsware and it worked ... i would like to thank to everyone that tried to help me and i hope this will be a tutorial in some way to fix their own phones when you get same problem that i had .. did i mention i havent slept all night long and its passed 12:00 afternoon.
anyways im off to bed ... for a few hours to ge the stress out .. if i can help in any way let me know
The following is for those who have locked bootloaders ie :- NO fast/hotboot option available
needed :-
flashtool by androxyde needed to make all this possible can be downloaded from http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/
flash 4.0.4.lt 15i generic fr ftf then use the kernal from the lt18i ics 4.0.3. flash only kernal so thats kernal sin loader sin only and dont wipe data or cash
full 4.0.3 lt18 562 ftf for kernal for rooting
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B_7JadydU6TBNElIYlVWTEhJVDg
then i used this to root the phone ROOT ICS: Use this script:-
http://ul.to/ia1eriso
to use the script on handset goto settings developer options top option tick the check box make sure your computer has already or is installing drivers for adb etc etc click the run me inside the package once u have extracted it to somewhere on your desktop or somewhere else u put it and thats it it will restart ur fone a few times and run the root for u theres nothing else to do sept sit down for 20 seconds
Installed clockwork mod using this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pvy.CWMinstaler
Then i flashed this
http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip *** THIS CAN BE SKIPPED IF WANTED ***
from
http://androidsu.com/superuser/
then back to flashtool by androxide to reflashed the 4.0.4 stock kernal remember to not wipe user data and casch and kept rooted on locked bootloader
thanks to evry 1 hear and to those who made the original packeges i made nothing i just played around with it a bit if i was helpfull pleas press thanks
tried and tested i have 2 arcs and it worked on both
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR U DAMAGING YOUR PHONE DOING THIS =) BUT IV HAD NO PROBLEM AS OF YET ***SEE NEXT POST ***
edit *** Originally Posted by codestation View Post

Or for an easyer method try this basicly following the same thing just made easyer by http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4562324 located http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683957
i got the idea to try this from this thread originaly http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680222
so id look there at my rants b4 trying this
*** if your on stock ics from pc companion just flash the 403 kernal root fone with one click then flash back the 404 kernal for arc ***
** rants the 403 kernal makes phone stop the xperia option in settings will dissaper keyboard fc etc etc,,, some free aps will seem like they dont have full root they do just some features only available on paid apps £££ support ur devs and buy them =) ***
*** flashing the 4.0.4 generic fr ftf is optional as fear as i know i only say to use that 1 as it was the only 1 available at the time i did this and is the only one that i have tried personaly as different regional firmware becomes available i will try them myself but if u have a different ftf file than the one i used i think it should be safe to use as from what iv been reading in other root threads ie xperia pro arc s etc they all seem to be following the same steps i did to root with locked bootloads and dont apperar to make any difference =)
*** as mentioned i found that the 2nd root package doesnt need to be done however i found that it was a little quicker to respond to apps than the other this one popps up with 8 secs left to press button but other i found to be a little laggy even after an update from market poping up after like 4 secs of pressing root apk request with only 3 seconds left to choose grant/deny,
2 other things i found with the french 4.0.4 there was an apn stored in there via default and if u try to delete or edit it or discard it then got to home screen and try to go back to apn's it crashes settings however i was still able to make calls recieve n send text go on webb via mobile currier but had emergency calls displayed in the quick panel
the other was when selecting network it takes some time loading them and if u press on the screen b4 it brings any network up it will just send u bk to the previous screen having to start the whole thing again lol well anoying best to just wait or ajust screen time out maybe ?? easy solution
instalation ov busy box seems optional m not linking any to the thread tho there are several available on the market choose ur own preferance =)
Thanks, Worked well for me. Phone is rooted now with locked boot loader.

{[Arc S] [ICS 4.0.4] 4.1.B.0.431 Generic World (1254-2184) (There is no special bloatware, only standard Sony) Thanks to eryen
http://www.mediafire.com/?5cpcb6st55abcdm
i thought this was an official update or do u mean one thats come from ur pc companion/ sony directly for ur region ?
sorry yer just caught it so its official just had the bloat ware pre removed thats all isnt it ??
Sorry for noob question .
I rooted my phone earlier this year and haven't gotten OTA updates since .
I would like to bring it to latest version but I am afraid to brick it .
I found this Summobile website . Did anyone used it recently ? Is it safe to do the instructions there ?
Also are there any other steps needed like wiping phone etc ?
I've used them for manually installing OSes onto my Samsung Devices, without any problems at all.

I just have a little more questions:
Do I have to wipe phone before / after ?
What do I do if I get an error ?

To your first question:
You don't have to wipe your phone - your local data like pictures, music and so on will stay on the device, only your apps will get deleted while flashing.
To your second question:
What kind of errors your do mean? Flashing errors?
I did it .
Everything went OK .
Didn't lose a single thing . Even my apps were intact.
is there any very helpful s8 owner who could take a complete system backup and i can restore that should i used this? would rlly appreciate it. I failed with rooting very hard and dumb of me. and i got help from a other guy that fixed a lot. but when we want to reboot it bootloops on my samsung flashing screen. and the guy that helped me didnt know either what to do anymore because he tried already a lot. so he's last idea was using a complete system backup from a s8 owner. i cant use my Phone since sunday and i rlly had some important message i need to read. thank you for reading this far i will hope for a good respond.

Last time I reset my phone it took forever to reset. Try redoing the process but give it plenty of time. Also, don't worry about it heating up.
If you had any message saved on the phone you won't be able to view it after a reset.
Try taking these precautions next time you reinstall firmware:
Make sure you have the right firmware for your country code (it's usually on a sticker on the box or when you go in download mode: power+volume up+bixby)
Make sure you have the latest Samsung Drivers for Mobile installed on your pc, this usually leads to bootloops if not installed before flashing
Ensure you have the original cable that came with the box connected as it has information that's not found on other wires
Make sure you have the most recent version of Odin. I recommend uninstalling anything you have on your pc and reinstalling the files from the beginning so nothing mixes up
These really helped when I got MY phone stuck in a bootloop...twice...
It happened after only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed. but got someone a s8 backup?

So, I had a rooted S10+ , using Magisk root. Running andriod 9.0, Recently i used an app from google store to put an installed apk file into /system/apps, And then I reeboted voila, The mobile keeps bootlooping into the screen where it says "Samsung galaxy s10+ Secured by Knox, " and the light of the screen dims,... And Restarts after a while.
I AM ABLE TO get into RECOVERY MODE. Tried Wiping data and Cache.
I TRIED GOING INTO DOWNLOAD MODE. BUT it doesnt work. Tried inserting the Cable, powering off via Recovery and then Tried Vol Down + Bixby +Power,
Everything, But wont go into Download mode.
I do know a little about rooting and stuff .. I mean i can use Odin .. I have the firmwares for the device, Is there a way to Install the Firmware using sd card? or like What do i do next? IM Literally Panicking.. I mean the device is pretty new and expensive XD.
Im gonna leave it for the night to i guess drain out of battery.. Please help. What should i do next.
Please Help, I just know this forums ive been here since idk joined it back then.. Please i need help from someone or ima literally die of heart attack

Well let's try two things
If your data is important to you try to install custom ROM via TWRP
And if not try to reset factory from TWRP
I don't think that you BRICKED! your phone
It only causes from flashing wrong model firmware
And I think the best way is install custom ROM(do a full wipe)(see completely clear tutorial videos to install it right)and after system booted you can install stock ROM again
---------- Post added at 05:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 AM ----------
If all the things go wrong
At if your completely know that you BRICKED it(that I don't think) you can easily request debrick.img and install it from SD card
So be relax dude
It would be great experience for you to save your phone

I assume that you must have installed magisk module like app systemizer or any other like that to convert system app?
Just have to uninstall certain module from twrp using twrp file manager. Reboot it will boot.
OR
You can use read my thread in guide section " upgrade downgrade without losing data" i mentioned in detail and also some links to ready magisk patched firmwares.
New Weird ****
So Thank you so much for replying, It gave me hope , I went to a Fixit guy, He I HAVE TOTALLY NO IDEA What he did,
Since i couldnt reach Download Mode, I got him to fix it, now ...
I am running my phone. Everything looks good, The warning of root at the start disappeared and the software starts normally.
There is 1 issue. I am still unable to run samsung secure folder (type apps , i think its because i did once root the phone), Secondly.
I updated my Phone to the new Andriod version and it bricked again ? (got restored by the same guy again), So like , can someone tell me what might be causing this ?
Should i Enable Debug, Go download mode and Reinstall the Original Firmware that I patched before with magisk? like (I compared the Baseband version and Build Version of the new installed software its not same as my original phone ? Maybe this is causing it not to software update? )
I dunno The Sideefffects of once rooting the phone? I mean can i ever get the old default non rooted phone back? I hope you someone understands what im trying to ask ? Like Should i Default firmware it ? or just keep using it ? will i gain something? like Will i be able to update the software?
(NOTE: I dont need root anymore . Im done with it.)

Once rooted, secure folder will not work anymore. If you are using Android 9 then use custom ROM because there is fixes there for Secure Folder. If on Android 10 then forget about it and wait until dev fix.
And for other questions, it sounds like you are newbie and didn't know anything about it until now. I would suggest to read some article here, explore about some magisk that what its, Bootloader ... how to unlock Bootloader etc. Trust me one day you will become dev. Good Luck
What i am asking is, I think something is wrong. I cant use Netflix , It was working before (when rooted), So i want to know, Should i Use ODIN to Put my Original (UNPATCHED) Firmware in this phone?
And If i do agree to proceed, (My Boot loader is unlocked permanently btw in developer options),
I just have to put it on download, connect pc open odin add the original files and run it ? and when start wipe data and cache. is that is ? Am i missing something can you please confirm sir? and these files only right?
"AP, BL, CP and CSC (I also have HOME file should i also attach that?)
Can you recommend me a tutorial to follow via odin, Restoring my Original Firmware back ? In s10+ please? Ill be grateful to you.
