I lost recovery on my phone and when I try and boot my phone, it says "system software not authorized by att."
I'm trying to ODIN my phone back to stock but I can't see my phone when I open ODIN and put my phone in download mode. does anyone know of any fixes for this?
Try different USB port or different cable.
You might have to try a different computer. I can't for the life of me get my pc to recognize my device. But I have no problem on my laptop
Sent from my Nexus 5
Thanks guys. I found out that I had to restart my computer after installing the drivers and then it detected it with no problems!
Ok so. I bricked my gt-i9505, and i have tried everything to try and fix it. The problems are as follows:
Phone wont turn on
Wont boot to recovery mode
Odin, Kies and pc wont recognize phone
The things i did that got me to a bricked phone are i flashed paranoid android onto the phone and tried to flash gapps full modular, it wasnt working, clockworkmod gave me a status 6 error and so i decided to use mobile odin to flash it as soon as it began the phone crashed and it wont turn on anymore. i am able to go into download mode
I need some help if anyone can help. I dont know what to do.
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum.
Stand by
Until then read/ask in this thread: How to Unbrick Samsung Galaxy S4?

If the phone won't turn on at all you might be boned.
Odin and all that obviously require you to be able to boot to download mode.
Are you positive the battery is good? Could you find another battery to try?
Does the charging light come on when its plugged in? Are there any signs of life at all?

I think it does turn on because the phone does continue to heat up but its just a black screen also i can put it into download mode and it stays there without being plugged into charge. I'm not sure about the battery ill have to check that out. ill get back to you.
It sounds like you dont have recovery or a rom installed at all.
To fix that you need odin. If the PC wont recognize the phone that is a problem. Did you try a different USB cord to connect to the PC? They are not all created equal.

yes i have used both the original one that came with the phone and the s5 one that my brother has, i have had no luck.
my phone shows up as "msm8960" or mtp usb device also it it device driver software was not successfully installed.
[UPDATE] i have found something similar to odin called JOdin3 that connects to my phone, through this i will try to flash a stock firmware, downloaded from sammobile, and see what happens.
Odin doesn't work without the drivers, and since you had an issue with the drivers that would explain why Odin doesn't work yet JOdin3 does.

I installed the samsung drivers several times and it still wouldn't connect to the pc, i also installed kies and it still wouldn't work, but it was working before i bricked my phone. i have fixed my phone through JOdin3.But thank you everyone for your help.
Will it connect now through Odin or Kies?

No it still wont connect to either but the computer does recognize the phone.
MTP is built into Windows, so the fact the PC detects the phone is a good sign. The entire problem you're having seems to hinge on your PC rejecting the Samsung drivers, which are absolutely required for Odin to function. Those drivers should have no problems installing, and I have successfully installed them on both Windows 7 (x64) and Windows 8.1 machines so I know the installer does work.
There could be many reasons as to the source of your problem, such as a corrupt file or registry entry from when the phone soft-bricked. You want to take a closer look and do some detective work here. Uninstall the drivers if you haven't already done so. Clean out the PC with CCleaner. Even attempt a reinstall of the drivers in the PC's safe mode. Regardless of what you choose to do, if you ever wish to use Odin, you'll need to get this resolved.

yeah ill definitely try to fix the problem because odin is such a great tool. i have uninstalled and installed the samsung drivers but i'll go search the net and what not to try and find a fix. odin was working before when i flashed the stock rom and changed something to mtp and adb (i think i put in an ussd code or something (*#0808#) and through that i was able to use odin) but because the wifi wasn't working on the stock rom, i flashed a custom rom to fix the wifi problem but was once again greeted with the odin problem.
Hello. Few months ago I installed unofficial Cyanogenmod 11 on my E610. After updating baseband it worked perfectly. After some time I decided to restore my phone to the state after installing CM11. It worked no problem. Today I wanted to do the same, and after installing SuperSU and Texdroider DPI I rebooted my cellphone, and it stucks on the cyanogenmod boot logo. If I try to get to recovery mode it stucks on the LG logo instead of CM. Hard reset is not happening at all. I tried to connect my phone via LG User Support Tool and install kdz firmware, but no luck. Although when I connect my phone without the battery to my PC i hear the "ding" windows sound, and phone exists in device manager. It also creates some disc drive in my computer, but unfortunately it's empty. I think textdroider has changed the build.prop file, so the cyanogenmod is not able to start at all. Is there any possibility to get to the build.prop file and change it, so phone will start? Or maybe somehow I can reset my phone or reinstall firmware using my USB cable without entering usb debug or recovery mode? Thanks in advance for any idea :crying:
Put your phone in Emergency Download Mode : switch it off, hold volume down button while plugging USB cable (already connected to the PC).
Then use the Support Tool to go back to LG ROM

in these cases emergency mode should work
removing battery sim sd etc... connect your phone to the pc throught us cable pressing vol- it automatically boot into download mode and you can easily use kdz.
make sure you have the last driver from lg websites else kdz wont find your phone, and set emergency option in kdz everything else it similar to a normal flash
So long story short I had to TOT back to stock and a OTA update bricked my phone, stuck at the LG logo, I tried to go back into download mode and download mode works but when I plug it in to my PC I get USB drivers failed to install error message so LGFLASH tools can not recognize it, I tried to reinstall the lg drivers, a different cable and even a different computer, still fails.
Any suggestions as to how I can save my G2 would be appreciated, I am using my old galaxy nexus and I do not have enough pockets for the number of batteries it takes to get through the day...might be slightly exaggerating
Hello:
First of all, excuse me, I'm using a translator because my English is not very good. I was using a custom rom and wanted to back to stock so I flashed the correct firmware for my model (A-510M ARO NOUGAT) via ODIN. The process ended and had no errors. When I turned on the phone and connected it to my pc and it does not recognize it, it only charges the battery. I tried to format from the recovery and it shows the message "failed to find / misc partition"
- I tried with other USB cables.
- I tested it with other USB ports.
- I've updated Samsung drivers.
- I tried the secret menu and it does not work.
- does not recognize the download mode either
- I can not use ODIN to reinstall the firmware.
- Samsung Kies does not recognize the phone.
- Does not recognize ADB mode
The truth is that I am desperate and I do not know what to do. I can not reinstall the firmware if the PC does not recognize it. If anyone knows a possible solution I am very grateful.
thanks to all
i came across your situation long ago. it is the pc that doesn't recognize your phone. try with different pc. also you can try to format using settings>backup & reset menu. I ended up resetting my pc in order to recognize my phone.

Hi! I tried but is not working. I discover a new problem: when i connect the USB cable the phone shows me a message: "the battery temperature is very low. Charge stopped". Could be another the problem?
Thank you all

No worries. We don't have misc partition so it's normal.
FRP lock won't reset on firmware flash. You need to enter your google account on boot.
To disable frp lock before factory reset next time, either remove your google account from your phone, or disable screen lock before reset.
You can't flash new firmware from download mode if you are in frp lock.
