Are you using a firmware from your region? If not, that could be it.

Yea, I read the above link a ba-jillion times over and over until I understood what was going on and flashed it successfully the first time. I got lucky but try following the instructions in the link provided above and good luck!

It absolutely has nothing to do with the firmware being for some other region. It could be for Mordor region, and it should still install without issues.

Not true, at least from my experience. I tried to flash firmware from the UK on my note from India and it failed. Maybe I should try the Mordor firmware...

Hey all ive been trying to flash my orginal firmware for my galaxy s4 at&t i337. Ive been using odin 3.07 but I keep having a fail to complete error. It boots up fine and I attempted to root it but it seems like it works but I run root checker and it tells me that it has rooted incorrectly. A lot of other people have been saying that samsung block this exploit in 4.2.2 and im basically screwed till the new update comes out. Ive tried everything, help would be appreciated

3.07 works too since it has compatibility with all devices that work with 1.85 and dev recommends to use v3.07...

You're not supposed to decompress the tar file.
You need to flash the xxxxxxx.tar

Hopefully you are not in the same boat I am in. Don't try to Odin another Rom it will not work. Try to Odin CF Auto root. That worked for me until my phone stopped responding to anything. If that doesn't work you are with me which is in purgatory. No way out at this present time.

Yeah that is what I was saying. Don't try to Odin any other stock roms it won't work. Once you are on MJA you are locked out of Odin with the exception of recovery. Your only option to get back to stock is to wait for a working zip that you can install via recovery.

BREAKING: Galaxy Tab S3 Android 8.0 Official
When Flashing Firmware You MUST use ODIN v3.13.1 for all OREO Firmware, so from now on.
ARA2 :
OREO MEGA Link :
ODIN v3.13.1
ODIN v3.12.7
https://drive.google.com/open?id=19qPXS0S32dtDfEJJ7-jz-aRj8wzM6a0w [CURRENTLY UPLOADING]
https://mega.nz/#F!Trxx3ZRS
KEY : !mR8xq7LhN5vWgEUBExVWpw
*edit*
If you are on a Custom Build or Custom Firmware, You might want to go back to stock, before flashing this. I did the following if you are ROOTed with SU/Magisk:
-Flash Ashyx latest TWRP
-Wipe ALL in TWRP, YES to confirm
-Go into Reboot Menu and POWER OFF (You will get a Warning that there is NO OS. Doesnt Matter cause you turning tablet OFF
-Boot in ODIN Mode, open up ODIN 3.12.7 and Flash ARA2 Firmware.
-When complete, Open ODIN v3.13.1 I provided above (V3.13.1 is For ALL SAMSUNG OREO builds now)
-Extract the Oreo firmware package, Reboot into ODIN Flashing Mode, Flash BL, AP, and H0ME_CSC.
-Sit back, relax, it should boot when ODIN is done....
*edit*
Theae are BOTH UK Builds and it doesnt matter, the whole world gets almost the same Build and they get them at different times. I didnt even have to set the time to regular and it was easily able to locate. Wifi works on BOTH sides of the Pond Guys, FYI.....
Thanks to @mariomsg1 for SM-T825 firmware package : Drive link(T825 LTE version):https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-tz...ew?usp=sharing
ROOT for Oreo current instructions, grab files from TWRP by @ashyx and search for Magisk Beta
1) Flash ashyx TWRP
2) TWRP Back up
3) wipe ALL -> YES
4) Reboot Recovery
5)Restore Back Up
6) flash Magisk Beta v16.4
7) Flash Devirty file
8) Reboot will take a while but she's all good:

Successfully updated from the mirror.
I downloaded from sammobile the files that i needed for the device, the model G935F.
I tried flashing it with odin (latest version). It failed at recovery.img (after flashing it and boot.img).
The phone doesn't reboot to the system. It only shows error mode and to use the smart switch emergency, but it says that the device is not supported.
Any help? Thank you
Which country you bought it from ? Was your phone network locked ? Use odin 3.13.1, also tell which firmware you flashed ..

Thats because you are flashing older bootloader version..
Here flash this rom using odin 3.13.1 https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=6D0B51DC4B6111E89F15FA163EE8F90B

Its asking for the previous account that was logged on before it bricked. If you are the owner put your account details and if its someone else like your customer or friend, ask them for the details of previously logged in account.. that frp lock is there for security and xda won't allow to discuss solution here. You should search yourself now for a solution .. Good Luck !
