I'm assuming you're referring to https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-T280/
However, I can't find one that matches my model number, which is where my concern more or less comes from.

None available, but I suggest you use the search function and do some reading because this has been mentioned dozens of times already. The best you can do at this point is take the phone to a BestBuys with a Sumsung Kiosk and see if they will reflash it. You need to search to find out more information about it.

Sounds like it needs to be replaced (warranty or insurance), but I would try for warranty first. If it bricked for no reason at all, I assume you are not rooted and have nothing custom on the phone? Because if you do, it could prevent a warranty claim. Samsung can and will send you a bill if they find anything has been tampered with. Good luck.
You can check here...
Mind you however, that is ONLY for devices running pre-MF3 bootloaders. If you attempt to flash it as a stock recovery on a MF3 device your end up with a brick. If your on MF3 and have a brick currently, there isn't a way to go back outside of sending the phone back to Samsung or going to Best Buy's Samsung Experience Center.

This is by far your best option, use ODIN and flash these files to return to a stock MF3. Updating to anything higher then MF3 is generally ill-advised. At least for the moment...

Have you tested or seen anyone else report that the current Safestrap works with MJ6 or you can even gain root access with MJ6?
Not being rude, but please don't offer advice if you are unsure of the outcome (this means more than one person has confirmed working or you have tested it yourself). I personally don't think it hurts to make a suggestion but let the person know it hasn't been tested or you are unsure of the outcome.
Had the OP taken your advice before you were corrected, they would have been upgraded to MJ6 with no option for running a custom ROM or getting root access (hopefully this won't be the case for long).

I saw your other post with the Odin print out. It looks to me like it's still a bad download, the md5 is not checking.
Edit, what are you using to extract the md5 files from the zip? Use 7-zip.

What does this mean ? Does this mean 5.1.1 is available for our sprint phones
No just to get us all ready for it
This is 5.0.1 and it allows us that we're stuck on OE1 to upgrade to the latest firmware

I was on Rooted OB7, Kies told me OF5 was latest and updated me about 10 minutes ago. It took a long time to optimize the apps, (It did it 4 times!) and restarted at least 4 times after update. Things seem to be settling down now. The phone kept all my data, so if you can update using Kies you probably won't have to restore a backup. Also, the phone got real hot during the optimizing, you might want to take it out of any case you are using to keep it from overheating.

Does the TAR delete everything off your phone?

SM-G900W8 Factory firmware

I have a SM-G900W8 boot-looping device, none of HOME firmwares could have helped me to amend the phone.
The device is still bootlooping, and I was told there was a FIRMWARE firmware which consists of 4 files, it's usually being called the service firmware as well.
This firmware could help me to stop the bootlooping process.
I've been searching this kind of firmware here, then i've checked out 3 different firmwares at fw.updato.com, but none of them are service.
Could anyone please tell me if is it possible to find the certain service firmware?
Service firmware will wipe data and cache partitions in your phone, this is the difference.
You can try to do it by yourself from recovery.
Wiping cache partition only should help if it's a software problem.
Or try to use samfirm tool to download the latest service firmware for your phone.
You'll have to enter your phone's model, CSC and tick "Binary nature".
Samfirm tool points me to fw.updato.com, which has been used already. I downloaded 3 firmwares and none of them suites me.

I wish i knew it. I do not know where the phone came from, i just know the model code. Neither the firmware it was bought with, nor what exactly happened.
Only odin mode is bootable. Nothing else is.

I flashed the phone, but unfortunately, there was no any luck.
The phone still keeps trying to boot into recovery, and reboots.
Have no idea how to make it work again.

Hmm, suspected something like that... I'm afraid, this is a HW problem.
Defecitve emmc chip is an often problem for S5.
In this case your best bet is to swap the motherboard.
