Was handed a S8 950u
It booting in binary factory.
Would like to restore to factory or update to a new rom if possible.
Thoughts?
Did the standard search and there lord knows how much info but not much on how to flash something that seem stuck in binary factory.
Help!!! lol
Think his son tried updating it and messed something up and like to get this going again if possible since he uses it when he in the hospital .

Damn dude you got ****ed it sounds like you bought a stolen phone my advice is try to flash the factory stock OK3 that can be found in jkruse threat about jailbreak in ok3 and if that doesn't work try downgrading to OG5 and see if that works if not I'm not sure man :/

You can find all the info you need in this post.
Don't know what your firmware is but the oldest base you can go is NB1 (4.4.2).
Root the phone with towel root.
Install either flash fire or safestrap and flash the desire lollipop rom.
Hello! I don't want to start a new thread just yet, but I'm also stuck in a bootloop after a mishap during a manual update. Is it possible to recover any of the internal files when recovering the phone, or is it impossible? Honestly, I just want the files off of my phone more than anything else. There are a lot of memories there that I would love to save...I know, I know, I should have backed up those files, but that chance is gone now. :crying:
Hello guys,
I am verry sorry to bother you with this, but I am just to dumb for this part.
I am quite familiar with the whole custom rom business but I try to fix my mothers phone where I installed a Cyanogenmod custom rom (12.1) some time ago.
She experiences some mobile network issues which, I guess, are related to a old baseband / modem version causing troubles.
Can you tell me which version is the right one to flash via Odin or preferably via twrp?
I plan on updating it before installing the lastest 12.1 CM snapshot.
I believe she has the Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 International with LTE and Snapdragon processor.
Under baseband version ("About the phone") it says I9505XXUEML6.
(I dont know if this is correct I can remember that I once installed a Google Play Edition Rom to get rid of the bloatware).
The phone was bought in Germany.
I know that you guys are probably busy with more important stuff but I'd really appreciate it if you could quickly help me with that.
Have a great day.
Thank you in advance.
Update: I got the files, changed the cable Odin passed but no version change!
Update 2:
Manually going into fastboot instead of using the reboot menu did it! Thank you so much. (Maybe add that info to the guide to avoid similar problems with othe people)
Thumbs up & good night!
Hi,
I have been rooting my note 4 since it came out and familiar with any problems that may occur with kernels and stuff...
I decided to sell my phone and put it towards an S8 when i t comes out, i am sending my phone to Mazuma Mobile but wanted to unroot it first but the stock firmwares i am flashing though Odin are stuck on the Samsung start up screen.
I am not sure about unrooting and need some help, the latest firmware i have tried is "BTU-N910FXXU1BOC5-20150423120804" - i have the N910F model but it wont load beyond the Samsung bootup screen.
Anybody give me some help please and maybe point me to the correct firmware that i should be using?
Appreciate any help.
Thank you.
Think i need to use the latest firmware - N910FXXS1DQC3
Can someone point me to somewhere i can download this please?
Every link i check asks me to buy an upgrade account to down load this firmware.
Cheers
I flashed Android Pie to my S8+, but now I have to send it back to Samsung as part of the trade in deal for the S10. I've been trying for hours trying all of the trouble shooting. Pretty sure the issue is just that The bootloader veresion number im using is too low. Current on phone is G955USQU5DRL7.
Ive tried to BL Odin files for 7.0, G955USQS3CRE2. I can not find any other ones. This one fails, and AT&T firmware seems to be impossible to find.
I'm still new to this, as flashing Pie was my first time bootloading.
Am I just screwed.?
Hate to hijack your thread, but willing to share where/how you got Pie on it? Is it an AT&T locked S8+ or unlocked?
No worries bro
Correct me if I’m wrong, but you just installed their beta without being in the beta just factory reset and send back the phone. You never tripped Knox they will just think you were in the beta.
