hi,I have a galaxy s5
I hade an android 5 version and i wanted to upgrade to android 6 , i checked in the setting and on the stickers behind the battery and i checked the IMEI on the internet, all of them showed that the type is sm-g900f

[Q] Need Help!!!!!! Phone Stuck at Samsung Logo

I am currently new to all this stuff so i dont have an exact idea what i was doing
First of all i rooted my Device I9500 Which had 5.0.1 Android
then i installed TWRP Recovery and then i was not able to backup any stuff to External SD Card so i installed some Boot.img which i exactly dont remember which i installed from watching any youtube video then later some problem occured It showed some error like "firmware upgrade encountered an issue" then i flashed Philz touch recovery which then worked and i was able to backup my data but i was not able to Boot into my Original ROM or couldnt see an option for that. Then i downloaded The Ozcan V6.3 ROM and tried installing it it succesfully installed but after that its not able to boot uo and stuck at SAMSUNG Logo Screen.
Please Help me What to DO !!!.
Thanks In Advance
If your device can still get into download mode, download the stock Android 5.x image for your device and flash it using Odin. That will get you back to square one so you can start over with rooting and installing the custom ROM.
I had the same problem on my gs4. It would only go to galaxy logo so I flashed the lollipop firmware via odin and all is well.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app
Just have to flash the default one with Odin ?
i also backed up my old data with philz to my sd card that also and i also downloaded a new Default 5.0.1 ROM ?
Which one should i flash ?
and whats the critera for finding ROMs leaving the model number ? (noob question)
Is the S4 unlocked? If not, what country are you in and what carrier do you have?
My Country is India and its the International Version I9500 and i am not pretty sure that it was unlocked or not .but it was rooted and recovery was installed
Added later :
I just installed recovery back and then tried to install ROM the ROM was also stuck on the Boot Loop I think my boot loader isnt unlocked and ima stuck there because of that
I9500 isnt bootloader locked. And u must be flashing the boot.img on other partition that not in the odin package. So u must search how to repartition ur device. But. U MUST VERY CAREFULL WITH REPARTITION OPTION! U MIGHT BRICK UR DEVICE IF U DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT U DOING!. And if u wanna flash recovery and boot.img or bootloader thing. U must ONLY flash for I9500 version!. And if u successfully repartition ur device. U will lose all internal storage too. Ok good luck

You would know if you were carrier unlocked as you'd be able to put a SIM from a different carrier into the S4 and have the device work. To get you the correct ROM we still need to know your carrier.
secure download : enabled
Hi my galaxy s4 gt i9500 is stuck in a bootloop. When is boot I get "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again"... when I boot into download mode I see "secure download : enabled" which wasn't usually there. Am trying to flash the pit file with twrp but Odin is failing.... is it because of the secure download enabled?? Please help me
You can't flash the PIT file with TWRP.
Do you have Odin? Do you have a copy of your stock ROM, downloaded either from Sammobile or samsung updates? If not, you'll need to get them. You then flash the firmware through Odin WITHOUT the PIT file. This should restore your device to operating condition. Afterward, you will of course need to root the S4 and flash a copy of TWRP to be able to install a custom ROM.
Carrier is Airtel

[q] need help

Hi all
I bought a Note 3 LTE version abroad while on vacation. I wanted to root it to install custom roms. I ran the root checker app and it is already rooted. So now I want to install a custome recovery. Here is the problem. When I check in the settings the model is shown as Sm9005 and baseband is N9005ZHUENE1. There is a sticker under the battery which also shows as SM9005. However the housing at the back shows AT 900a. I installed the phone info app and it shows below details
Model SM9005
Device type hltecan
Product name hltecan
Original CSC code CHN
Firmware a CSC code ATT
Active CSC code CHN/ATT
CSC country Hongkong
Boot loader version N900AUCUCNC2
Baseband version N900AUCUCNC2
PDA N9005ZHUENE1
CSC version N900W8OYACNB7
Kernel 3.4.0-722276 [email protected]#1
I am confused about which recovery to install. I tried to install the international version using TWRP manager and it failed. Same for hltecan. Now the recovery is messed up. When I try into recovery it says secure fail recovery. Can you all please help me identify the correct model for my phone and how to fix the recovery
When you on your device which model shown?? Post screen shots
Same problem
I'm facing the same problem while trying to flash the custom recovery ... and now i can't use stock recovery ..
Any solution also can i flash Lollipop via odin ?

-help- SM-N910f with SM-N910p bootloader

Hello every one
I have bought a Note 4 " SM-N910f " from ebay and when I tried to root it ,I have found that the version of the bootloader belong to another Note 4 (910p).
about device
Model Num: SM-N910F
Android Ver: 5.1.1
Baseband V: N910FXXU1COH4
Build Num: DONGCHAO.A929
CpuZ
model : Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910F)
Bootloader :N910PVPU4COG5
Kernel Ver: 3.10.40-5303209(N910PVPU4COG5)
Build Num: DONGCHAO.A929
Odin mode
product name : SM-N910P
current binary: samsung officiel
system status : officiel
reactivation lock off
Knox warranty void : 0x0
the ticket on the back also show the same thing as ''About device''
but when I cheket my IMEI in ""imei.info"" it tell me that my phone is a galaxy s6 edge !!!!
the same IMEI in both (back ticket & software (#*06#))
so what should I do?
because I can't root neither flash a new firmware
Can I relace the bootloader by the one of N910f ?
(I have only try to flash the firmware of N910f ,I did not try n910p firmware's because I am afraid if I succeed I'll finish with locked network phone)
thanks a lot
have same problem. did you succeed to resolve the issue?
I realised that someone has been changing "Sprint Note 4" to look like the international version.
so I decide to install the latest stock rom ( downloaded from sammobile)
Now I am so glad because I didn't get any problem.
I don't Know how but a Note 4(n910c) IMEI was restored not an IMEI of n910p according to "Imei.info"
Hotspot and Network unlocked including LTE
Hi, I am having the same problem as you.
Can you please give me the rom that you used? And which odin version did you use?
thanks.
what version is the modem? when the moden is from n910p too then its a n910p spoofed as n910f. that can be done by changing backcover and mount a sim reader and it works like n910f. so you have a n910p mainboard in it with changed imei with jtag box

Do this only if your bootloader is a N910P**** (Use CPU-Z to check it, you can download it from the market)
You must have a least 60%
You should remove your SIM card
I've used the latest rom from this link.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/60440/N910PVPU4COJ6_N910PSPT4COJ6_SPR/
I assume that you've already installed Samsung driver
and that you have the latest version of odin v3.10.7 and that you're familiar on how to use it
but before you proceed you have to :
1- Instal a custom recovery (Twrp)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...nt/tool-utility-twrp-2-8-1-0-teamwin-t2915591
2- boot into TWRP
3-in advanced wipe dalvik cache
4-wipe data/factory reset
5-Format /cache
6-Format /system
7-Format /Data
8-go to advanced and reboot to download mode
9-flash the downloaded rom
wait (10-15min) until your device come to world
Now you have a fresh and clean note 4
10-check your IMEI (*#06#) in http://www.imei.info/
11-restrict data and wifi usage for the following app
Sprint ID
Mobile Installer
Sprint Zone
MyScript Resource Manager
12-Update Your System (settings > System Update > Update Now)
Because this is not the latest build You should upgrade to N910PVPS4COK1 (150mo)
to correct some issue with Google Play Store and other things
13- Update you Play Store and Google Services thru the Store
14- shutdown your device when finished
15-insert your SIM and wake up your Note 4
16-you should root it to profit
(remove unwanted sprint apps it's recommended check the forum to find them out -Use Titanium Backup pro #1 )
enjoy and wait for the Marshmallow =)

Hi.
So how to I get the phone to work? It is in a bootloop when switched on and I cannot go into recovery mode since the phone restarts itself when I try to do so. However I have access to download mode.
Also how do I check the version of the modem?

hello, how do I make sure if my bootloader is a N910P? I cannot download CPU-Z on the phone since the phone is in a bootloop and not switching on.
Before I had the problem, it was written SM-N910F in the about device of the phone. In download mode, it is written N910p and at the back of the phone it is written Sm-N915F.
If you can access the download mode, you simply flash the custom recovery and follow the instructions
you can get it working by flashing n910p rom with odin (download it from sammobile) after that i can say you how to get it again full working with a n910f rom so that you dont have anymore any sprint apps on it

Korean note 4 SM-N910L WITH latest official 5.1.1 wont even flash official 5.0.1

Hi guys i bought korean N910L (n910L is written on sticker under battery )
It had a rom which showed mobile name n910s , it was rooted bloat free. it had really good battery timing. Twrp was also preinstalled on device.
But i wanted to flash sphinx rom for n910L. But the flash in odin failed.
I tried official 5.0.1 but it also failed. Only latest official COL1 firmware 5.1.1 from sammobile flashed but it had terrible battery timing.
I rooted official 5.1.1 and tried to remove bloatware apps but they wont. Went to odin mode which showed os and binary as custom and secure download enabled.. Again tried flashing sphinx and official 5.0.1 for n910l but both failed and odin showed binary as Samsung official. Error on pc odin shows write failed. Is the bootloader locked or what. Can i unlock it or downgrade bootloader to 5.0.1. Or give me the link to the first bloat free rom which showed model number n910s and build number written " awais android lab "
solution
finally found solution. THIS IS HOW IT WORKED FOR ME on lollipop col1 fimware of SM-N910L
twrp wasnt flashing so using cwm, flashed it as follows
connected phone in download mode and opened odin 3.10 on pc, then selected cwm recovery file and then while holdind vol+ and home and power buttons in download mode for about 5 seconds pressed start on odin and when phone booted left power button but kept pressing home n + until cwm started
here is the link to veitnamees site http://vegaviet.com/forum/288/
open in chrome and translate page to english
u will find some roms here for korean variants
goal is to install lollipop 5.1.1 custom rom as u cant go back to android 5.0 or 4.4
i m using this one http://vegaviet.com/threads/398322/
download it using the mega link given in thread
and flash in CWM
if u have problem booting, as my samsung boot screen showed kernel is not seandroid enforcing, then
use the stock rider kernel link given in another rom's thread http://vegaviet.com/threads/415270/
kernel link http://www.mediafire.com/download/ra5ojtvt19y7hh3/StockRider_Kernel_v2.8.0.zip
flash it immediately after flashing the note 5 port rom and then reboot after wiping catche
first boot took me about 10 minutes (i was beginning to give up),, battery life seems average ( not sure but 5.0 seemed better)
hope it helps some in problem. if it does help ,plz hit thanks as it took quite afew hours to find solution

Galaxy S5 G9006V

I have galaxy S5 with lollipop 5.0 showing model G900F under the battery sticker and in about device and other my phone info apps but when I switch to download mode it shows model G9006V. what is all this? what actually is my model. I tried to root using kingo pc file but it failed giving error "recovery is not seandroid". I recovered using samsung kies 3 now device is working but still can not go to recovery mode giving same error. When I try to update using device setting software update it gives error as "u have tried to modify ur OS in an un authorised way.
Hi!
Label in battery is the actual model. I think a wrong ROM was flashed.
Download from sammobile the right version ROM.
You can flash MM
Then flash TWRP recovery and flash superSUxxxxx.zip to root your phone

If wrong ROM were flashed it would not match with the lablel. I tried to flash the firmware from sammobile that matches with the label i.e. G900F but it failed. When I connect with Kies it shows G900F but while upgrading with Kies I have to write G9006V and S/N otherwise Kies says model is incorrect. I think its actually G9006V flashed with G900F but I am confused.
Samsung Knox app shows baseband and bootloader as, G9006VZNU1B0E3. PDA G900FXXU1P0EC. CSC G900F0JV1POF1

Did you try with Odin?
G9006V
I had the same problem. I had lollipop 5.0 international version, with all Google apps and all features. In "about phone" was info that is G900F. Every G900F root, or stock upgrade via Odin failed. What I've found out Is that only I can do is flash stock rom of G9006v, and that is only I can do. And I done it. But when I done it, I had only English and Chinese option for language. And I could not install any Google application, I did not had Play store. Everything from Google was blocked. In "about phone" now shows the info G9006v. I root it, install aptoide, but what I need is Google can enyone know what is the problem. Also I found out, when I searched for network and country to I can download stock rom is,in application Phone info *SAMSUNG* was showed that my phone is from UAE, xsg network, but stock ROM from sammobile didn't work. And now in same application is showed that my phone is from China, network " unicom"... WTF!? I worked with so many fones,I never saw anything like this.
