Hello, I have a Samsung SM-A310F which I have bought in the UK on O2. It had nougat installed, but I wanted to downgrade to marshmallow using Odin.
I downloaded the corresponding firmware from sammobile and followed the standard procedure, but it fails every time. Now I don't have an OS and Kies and Smart Switch say that my device does not dupport initialization.
Also, the phone was SIM unlocked if that is important.
Please help!
Also this is my first time posting, so I'm sorry for any posting mistakes.

Hi To All Gurus,
I have a new Samsung GTab and planning to upgrade my firmware because the stock firmware always pop a message " Force Close " when I install any apps from Market.
My firmware is Stock I thinks it's a JPJK2, I buy this in Riyadh and I can use any sim so I think it's not lock to any provider.
I saw new firmware from SamFirmware which is P1000JPJM5 is this compatible to my GTab Arab version I may say?
I download Odin 1.7 from SamFirmware also and I saw PIT, PDA, PHONE and CSC, I download P1000JPJM5 and PIT for Euro but I don't know if this can match to my device also if I don't have PHONE and CSC it's means my GTab will not work as normal phone or 3G if I don't have the PHONE and CSC file?
For those who can answer some of my question please try to guide me so I can start Rooting my GTab also I can upgrade my device.
I will appreciate more if you can explain it to me and URL link to all what I need to download for firmware upgrade will do a lot help for me also.
Thank you and Regards to all, more power to XDA and it's users.
Don't flash any JM roms from samsung! You will be stuck with a locked bootloader and not be able to use any open developed roms here.

I encounter a lot of Force Close thats why I'm planning to upgrade my Firmware.
Please advice me on where I need to start, TIA.

Hello, i'm new to this forum and this phone (SM- G928F). Can someone tell me or link me on how to downgrade through Odin to 6.0 ? A colleague of mine had bootlooped his phone and forgot his account, the phone stuck on FRP and he doesn't remember it. I tried to downgrade but Odin fails when I try to.
Thanks in advance !
My Samsung galaxy s7 edge (G935F) Is stuck in a boot loop and doesn't have an OS installed. Bit unsure what to do. I have tried installing a stock rom and for some reason when I try to copy a zip file to team win TWRP,(and I have MTP enabled) my laptop says this device has either stopped or isn't taking files? Anyone with any ideas please respond and don't tell me try take it to Samsung and ask for a fix cuz I tried that and they said we don't fix rooted stuff. I took it to a phone shop once and they said try flashing a custom rom with Odin. Reply here with any ideas! Thanks!
hey and welcome to xda!
the best and easyiest way is to start new - flash your firmware with ODIN - that will work in every situation!
You need to download stock firmware and start afresh. Stock firmware is the image of the official firmware that came (or updated officially) with your device.
Go to Sammobile and select model number and then your country. Since you didn't mention your country, here's the link that will directly land you to your G935F firmwares: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7-edge/SM-G935F/
Once you select country, you can read instructions on how to flash the image with Odin (link is also provided there).
Hope this helps Please feel free to ask any query. Happy Flashing!

use the frija tool or samfirm to download it. takes 1/4th the time as sammobile throttles like s#it
Thanks mate, yeah it was a rite pain in the ass waiting, but I did get the correct firmware, turns out I needed the btu version, now I'd only I could get root access.
Will bookmark that.
Hey everyone, noob here looking for help. I bought an S10+ G975F/DS a few weeks ago. Noticed it was rooted and still on android 10. So I found firmware for my region and flashed it via Odin. Now I cannot receive or make calls, no texts either. It's very frustrating. How do I fix this?
Try flashing the device's Original FW based on the Country Code CSC, not the FW for the region you reside.
