Please mention that you need latest version of Odin3 3.13.1. Thanks
Reason: Samsung implemented lz4 compression on partition images and older versions do not support that.

The old SamFirm downloader (v. 0.3.6) is still working.
It's much faster than sammobile without premium account and you can even download as binary...

I have few stupid questions? Noob
1. Will I trigger knox after installing this?
2. Will I lose all my data ?
3. I'm on AUT csc? What happens when I switch to BTU csc ?

1. No, you won't, if you install an official ROM.
2. No, but I propose to make a clean install and wipe. (sava data before)
3. CSC is OXA, not BTU. OXA is an international CSC.

OXA is not a CSC, CSC is BTU but also a Multi-CSC so includes many other CSCs, if your phone was originally one of them, such as XEU, it will default to that CSC, otherwise it should flash BTU

Click to expand...

1) No
2) No but make a backup of the content of the internal memory just in case anything goes south.
3) If AUT is not in the list of BTU (which is a MULTI-CSC) then you should flash using the BL+AP+CP+CSC (instead of HOME_CSC) and that will factory reset your phone. If AUT is included in the BTU csc list then use the HOME_CSC file instead.

Before flashing, do we have to ACTIVATE PIN in "Secure startup" ???

Flashing with latest odin 3.13.1 I end up stuck on the S7 bootscreen (not even the bootloop). First boot gets into samsung recovery, second reboot just gets stuck on the flash screen.

Also, if I try this and want to return to Android 7, its it possible to downgrade?

Is this global version? i mean if this unlock one? I am from Israel if i am will install it, This will work fine?

Has anyone in North America tried this firmware?
I am having the worst luck as of late- any firmware I have tried to flash since I reverted to vanilla N refused to flash. (vanilla AT&T BRA1 was successful). I am trying to either revert to my normal home ROM (T-M BRA1 or later) or (if possible) the UK Oreo. I am trying to find out why the spate of failures is happening.
Hence my questions.
1. Is this indeed for S7 Snapdragon (as opposed to Exnyos)?
2. If it is for Snapdragon, has anyone been successful?
3. Has there been a problem specifically with T-M N firmware as of late?

Any idea friends? please help me...

Soft bricked GT-i9050 need help please...

I got my Samsung galaxy S4 GT-i9505 with build number I9505XXUEMK9.
After I got it, I noticed the LTE option is not available and after some research, I found out I have to edit one file with rooting.
So I went to try rooting with KingoRoot APK, and eventually got KNOX warning everywhere, I edited the file that hides the LTE network option and tried to remove root from the app but failed. I didn't really care because KNOX eventually stopped appearing and I can use LTE just fine.
I noticed an update for this phone around December 2015 which is Lollipop 5.0.1 from the internet and want to revert it back to official ROM.
At the moment, the phone's current status is "Custom".
My phone has been factory reset because of some reason and the LTE option is gone again. The status is still custom and KingoRoot SuperUser is still there.
I finally tried to root it for real this time by following this guide http://www.teamandroid.com/2013/11/30/root-xxuemk9-android-43-galaxy-s4-lte-i9505-firmware/
As I try it, the Odin give me FAIL status and I don't know what to do so I just put out the battery.
After trying to boot, the screen shows me "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue"
Then I tried to just flash everything to stock and upgrades to the lollipop instead so I went following this guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477
I downloaded new Odin3 v3.10 and Latest lollipop 5.0.1 I9505XXUHOA7_OXAHOA7.zip from above link
I browsed BL, AP, CP, CSC without PIT file in odin and tried to flash it, FAIL occured
I tried again with PIT file, same FAIL
this is the screenshot

but it didn't flash, it's failed, so i copied the files and tried with odin and it was the same - failed.
- i tried with older versions of odin, but they display "unsupported dev" error on the phone.
- i tried with different cable and computer, one at work and other at home - no luck.
i don't know what else to try, after trying to flash 27 firmwares maybe i missing something?
i stayed up all night for this.
any help will be welcomed.
same issue
i can get the newest firmware to flash with odin 3.14 but same issue. only description difference is it seems to freeze then reboot. i have seen it progress a little further with reboots (over time) all the way to the setup screen then freeze and reboot or freeze altogether. been at this for like a week now. driving me nuts please help!! i think im going to try the s7 edge firmware see what that does.
Same exact issue. Hope someone has a solution.
Just have to say. Know the frustration. I have done the same thing with a dozen firmwares. Not as many as you and can not find the answer. If I do i will let you know.
One thing
So I finally got this file to work and pass G930VVRS9CSB1_G930VVZW9CSB1_VZW in odin 3.13. It's still rebooting though. Argh.

Flashing stock ROM using Odin fails at param.bin

Hi,
I know this has been asked a lot but I have looked at countless threads trying to rectify this issue.
I have an S7 Edge (SM-G935F) that at some point black screened itself. After numerous attempts at revival, I have managed to get it to at least display something. From what I'm guessing, something at some point has become corrupted and the phone is now soft-bricked. So what I have been attempting to do is flash stock firmware via odin.
Here is a screen showing it is soft bricked ->

Here is a screen showing its download mode stats ->

On the soft brick screen I have used the FRP hijacker tool to both "fix" softbrick as well as remove FRP. I don't think either were sucessful. However, the S7 did boot into the "Galaxy S7" splash screen and then to an "erasing" and an "installing update" screen. Both processes failed and boot loop with a message describing the failure ("dm-verity verification failed" and "fail to open recovery_cause"), but it seems like progress.

Also, the phone refuses to boot into the recovery menu, as if its not even there somehow. Instead, the phone boots into the "Galaxy S7" splash screen then the blue screens linked above. Sometimes it boots into the soft brick screen and sometimes into the splash screen. Its difficult to even get it into download mode as it takes a long time (hence the rubber bands to hold the buttons down) and I think the battery is toast.
I have been using Odin 3.14.4 (and 3.13.1) to try and flash stock firmware. What I have been doing is using Frija to download the latest firmware by entering the model number (SM-G935F) and then the country code. However, I do not know which one the phone is. I have done numerous (free) imei checks and one site stated that it was a United Kingdom/Ireland carrier (XEU) (it is a UK phone) but I have tried XEU, BTC, BTU, VIR and VOD and all firmwares fail to flash at the param.bin part. I have also got the PIT file from the XEU CSC_ which sucesssfully flashed, but it made no difference. I've even tried to flash the BL_ by itself to try and get the recovery menu but it still fails at param.bin. I have ruled out that I am using firmware with an older binary as the phone does not display the red text that it normally does when this is attempted. Something to note is that FRP is on, but I do not know if this makes a difference. I should also mention I have tried some firmware from Sammobile which havent worked either.
Here is a screenshot of the param.bin fail using the VIR firmware (after uninstalling the Samsung USB driver just to rule it out)

Im completely stumped now and am in need of advice. I think I have a basic understadning of how Odin works but most of my knowledge has come from attempting to fix this S7. Does the carrier/region even need to match in order for the flash to be sucessful? Does flashing the PIT or BL_ bring back the recovery menu? What are the next steps to fix/flash this S7. Does it seem like there's actually a hardware fault?
I apologise if I dont respond immediately and for the wall of text (I have tried to be thorough). Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
I just wanted to add that trying to flash without attatching BL_ causes it to fail at boot.img

I am having same problem with you. I tried to flash 4-5 firmware but no way. have you found any solution?
Does it show any sign of charging? What happens if you try to flash only CP or CSC? If it consistently fails after a certain number of bytes was transferred, your device could have a broken RAM chip or some other logic board issue, perhaps the flash storage itself is failing.
