Hi guys,
So, a few days ago I decided to tryout One UI Beta 2.0. A few days it worked perfectly fine, but today, it said my pattern was wrong. So I read on the forums that more people had this issue, and that it was because of the beta. So I downloaded the original firmware for my device from SamFirm, and flashed it in Odin. Phone booted perfectly and I got through the setup progress. Then I wanted to set up a pattern but it wouldn't work. I need to register my pattern 2 times like always, but after that it ask me that I need to back up my pattern, so when I click continue, something comes up for a second that says please check your network connection. And then it just doesn't add it. I tried to install firmware 2 times now with Odin, but no luck, I keep getting the same message.
The first time when I installed the firmware when I got from the beta, I forgot to disable my google and Samsung account, IDK if that may caused it someway.
Edit: I updated apps in galaxy store, and now it doesn't say check your connection, it says backup completed. But it won't change to pattern for some reason. Stays on swipe to unlock.
I hope anyone can help me with this problem,
Kind regards,
Crewz
Flash your original firmware (not the One UI 2 beta) and after ODIN says done or successfully or whatever, unplug ya phone and boot into recovery and do a data factory reset. This should fix it.

A lot of people had this issue and it was fixed 3 days ago. After beta 2 I also faced the same issue. Dont do factory reset. Just install the third update which was emergency update to fix this specific issue. Download it from beta thread.

Hi,
Okay, so with samfirm I downloaded my firmware and installed it with odin. So i tried the emergency update. I am trying to install beta 1 atm ( I read on the forums that you need to beta 1, 2 and the emergency ). but for some reason whenever I am trying to install it, I get the error "E3005 (LINK) has unexpected contents. Error in package.zip Status 7" I have no idea what to do anymore....

Hello, my SM-G935A is rooted, and I have 2 issues with it. Firstly, I'm unable to receive texts or phone calls (I can send them), and I've tried a factory reset and I even got a new SIM, but nothing worked. I think if I flash stock firmware, it might fix the issue. Second problem, when I go into download mode and select my AP in Odin and press start, my phone gets an error and Odin freezes at Initialization.
Any help would be appreciated. I would prefer to fix the texting issue, as I don't want to return the phone to ATT. In either case, the Odin issue needs to be fixed
I'm having a similar issue. This afternoon, 2 apps threw errors and closed. I rebooted, which apparently was the wrong thing to do. The reboot stalled on the AT&T logo and stayed that way for 5 min - the unit became very hot & the power button did not respond, even while holding it down. I got into recovery, cleared the cache and factory reset, then rebooted. The unit came back up and started reinstalling everything. I took it back down into the download status and attempted to reload 935x via Odin, only to stall at "initialzation" [sic] as you did. I got out of that after waiting for some sort of response. SuperSU was still in my apps as was Root Checker. Root Checker indicates the system is rooted. SuperSU indicates it needs the binary updated. BusyBox and TiBu indicate they cannot find root. I deleted all the root apps and tried reinstalling root via adb which completed successfully, but the same outcome with all the root apps. So I'm not sure if I'm still really rooted as Root Checker claims, or not.
EDIT: I just saw that I have 2 "Knox Settings" apps. Clicking on either returns, "Unfortunately, Container Agent2 has stopped."
use the odin from the stock firmware thread to flash it again. if it fails you can flash the u firmware and then the stock again. then you have to use a different odin if you want to flash the root api file the one you flash the firmware with wont work. also there is help in one of the threads about fixing the volte problem so you dont have to turn it off to get calls. i didnt have to do it as using the odin i mentioned fixed it for me when i came from the u firmware.

I was having the exact same problem you had with Odin. It seemed I was able to flash stock firmware using this version of Odin: http://www.mediafire.com/download/2t2sjqxtogbkafk/odin_3.12.3.rar

did you have any problems with the u version of the s7 edge firmware, like the fingerprint scanner not responding? i am on that version and cant get any odin version or any version of s7 edge g935a firmware to flash, tried unrooting and was forced to use the U version of the s7 edge firmware, everything works except the fingerprint scanner, cant get back to full stock firmware, need help!
im having the exact same problem, when i put my phone into download mode and flash the stock at&t firmware, Odin get stuck in "initialization" and my phone screen displays and error message.
Same stuff was happening to me, I went back to stock and took the update. When your phone stops working as an actual phone, it's time to roll it back.
I played with it for a week and my phone was so freaking hot (with hot weather) equals a wait and see if this gets more stable in the near future. I did use the Odin 3.12.3 mentioned by King James III. Honestly, I did so many things to get it back to stock I forget what actually worked (it was the wee hours of the morning and I was spent). Don't give up guys, it will and can work.
edit: It may be as simple as not right clicking Odin and running it as Administrator.

I used Odin_v3.12.3_Patched_SHA256 to flash the 935U Firmware then used Odin3_v3.11.2 to flash the June Firmware release.
Hello
I have a Yotaphone 2 running android 5.0. I have a huge problem with the device which is, that the phone reboots automatically all by itself after the screen turns off. The screen timeout is set at 1 minute and once the screen goes off, the phone reboots! I don't know what the problem is but its making me crazy!
Note: The phone does not reboot if the screen doesn't turn off. So I changed the screen timeout to 30minutes. Also note that Wi-Fi doesn't start immediately. It doesn't even start most of the time and is stuck at "turning on"! And also, the phone isn't detecting my SIM Card!
Hope someone can solve my problem.
Wow, seems a lot of problems here. However you provided very few info about your phone.
1) Where did you buy it?
2) What have you done after you opened it, OTA? Which firmware was installed?
3) Have you tried factory reset by wiping data in the stock recovery? (Accessible with Vol+ and Power)
4) Have you tried to flash from scratch the RU .124 firmware with YotaFlasher?
5) The phone was behaving normally before or it's doing this as soon as you started using it?
I got the phone as a gift

-The phone was a gift from "Aramex Company".
-Yes, I have factory reset it! Note: It wasn't possible to reset it from settings because it would always get stuck in "Shutting Down" phase and nothing would happen. So I hard reset it.
-I found something strange going on though. Whenever I reset it, It would restart (after the reset is over) and say that "ANDROID IS UPGRADED TO 5.0".
I think it is upgrading by itself to 5.0.
-No, I haven't tried any flashing.
-Yes, the phone was working fine for a while and then started behaving like this!
Cheers!
(Thank You for your support and attention by the way)

Hello!
I have made a video showing what the problems are! Please give me your e-mail so that I can send you the "Dropbox" link to the video.
Thank You!
I think the first thing to do here is to flash a clean firmware (RU or EU) on your phone via YotaFlasher, search here on xda how, and then report back if it's happen again! Seems that the firmware it was shipped with wansn't so stable.
Flashed it!

Hey!
As you had prescribed, I flashed it! First I flashed it with Android 5.0.0-ME1.1.60 and after opening the phone I used it for a while and the phone was same as before flashing! There was no difference at all! The phone was restarting on turning screen off as usual, the WiFi wasn't turning on, and the SIM wasn't being recognized!
But then I flashed it with Android 4.4.3-S01-003-ME1.0.3.61a and the phone is still rebooting by itself upon switching the screen off and the WiFi problem still persists! The WiFi just simply won't turn on. It's stuck at "turning on"! The SIM isn't recognized either! Also, the phone is restarting from the inside now (It wasn't restarting before. I had to keep the power button pressed every time I wanted to restart)! But NOTE that the phone still cannot be just shut down, it can only be restarted!
I don't know what to do!
Cheers
can you please help me find 4.4.3-S01-003-ME1.0.3.61a firmware. i tried yotaflasher and i cant make the program work. it exits close itself. i couldnt find any firmware folder in yotadevices ftp too. can you help me found the spesific firmware please?

Hi lgk350tr,
Why are you unable to make yotaflasher work, it is a pretty simple application. Have you tried to see instruction videos on YouTube on how to use it? Instructions are also available on XDA Developers' website. ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/yotaphone-one/general/yota-flasher-download-t3480922 )
Don't hesitate to contact, for any problem!

Try flashing the hybrid modem mentioned in the general guide (Part 2).
Try flashing 2 times before rebooting.
If nothing helps, you could try lineageos, @angelll123 made a lengthy guide how to that in the post quoted here , also check my comment.
Is this what you mean?

I have attached a screenshot of the Yotaphone 2 General guide page, I want to know if you are referring to the text that I highlighted in the screenshot!
Thank You
I do experience similar issue, but only recently. I haven't done anything like flashing or upgrading my phone, it started by itself .
I am experiencing reboots whenever battery drops below about two thirds of its capacity. Also, charging and handling some load prevents this.
Note that my Yotaphone has both displays damaged. Still working though.
I just got an OTA update for Nougat (BTU) on my S7 edge.
68MB, small update, so I let it install
I've had Secure Startup enabled on my device all along, never had an issue, but after this latest update had finished installing, device rebooted, asking for my device pin as usual, but it will not accept my PIN! I've been very very very careful in entering the 4 digit device pin correctly, but it just won't verify! Please help, I'm desperate, have 4 attempts left before it resets the device!
My last reboot was about 2 or 3 days ago, same pin worked, but broken after the OTA update.. I don't want to factory reset if I can help it, haven't done a Smart Switch backup in about 2 months, so my app data will be well out of date if I do
So I eventually gave in and did a factory reset (no choice)
Samsung Cloud FTW - restored my apps, home screen settings (even folders and shortcuts) from the nightly cloud backup! All I missed was this morning's WhatsApp texts (also nightly backup to Google Drive - WhatsApp detected that backup without any prompting, awesome!)
So all that I lost in the end was a good chunk of my day (letting nearly 200 apps reinstall is a slow process, and then anything with TFA needed to be re-logged-in, and my code gen app for TFA reconfigured, but overall it was pretty painless, all considering!

Is anyone else having this issue?
What I read from the stock FW thread, if a firmware is flashed using odin (not OTA) there are a lot of comments to have Secure PIN enabled because a PIN is required afterwards?!
So what to do when updating with OTA? pin enable? disable?
Hey,
Need some help. My brand new AT&T S8 Active arrived yesterday. Since I am located outside the US I'm stuck with utilising Odin to update the software.
The current version listed on the AT&T website was 5CSK1 and I was able to track down the update:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=81251867&postcount=743
It installed successfully, everything is going well however I am unable turn on NFC. The toggle found in the settings menu is off and when I attempt to switch it on it greys out for a few seconds then the 'NFC keeps stopping' error appears on the bottom of the screen.
I've cleared the cache/data for the NFC app - no luck,
I've performed a factory reset via recovery menu - no luck.
I've installed the previous build 5CSJ3 from: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80903399&postcount=187 with a factory reset straight after - no luck.
I'm currently back on the latest K1 build.
Logcat shows errors with 'libnfc_nci' and a 'Fatal Exception' for the 'com.android.nfc' process. And to top it all off the NFC app is draining my battery.
If anyone can help me that would be awesome.

ugh, the active line... there hasnt ever been much support for those. All you can really do is keep flashing the stock firmware and hope that the errors resolve themselves.
Side note: have you noticed how they stopped making the active phones? They were a dismal failure. All they are is the regular phone in a case that you cant take off :/

Might try redownloading a different firmware from a differ location. I had this issue on a lg back in the day the camera wouldnt work no matter what I always restored stock with one firm I had. And it ended up being a bad download. Another possibility is a bad NFC chip. If it's new I'd have it warranted
Thankyou, Thankyou Youdoofus and TheMadScientist for your advice.
Woke up early today (3am) with coffee in hand I tried again downloading the K1 and J3 builds; neither worked.
Unfortunately there's no alternative download for them... Google points to the XDA forums which seem to come from some Russian forum.
I've gone to an earlier build - 5CSI3 - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80505887&postcount=186 which works.
So it's not a NFC chip issue, yay. Now, just need to figure out what I'll do when the next update hits at the end of this month.

Yeah, it's working on the 5CSI3 build from October 2019, there's been two recent updates since then (and another will come at the end of the month). I don't know what's happening as no one else has reported this issue .
Just wanting to be on the most recent version for security and the annoyance of having data wiped every update.
Edit: Yeah, Odin v3.13.1 . No errors being displayed, all green.
This issue is very likely to be caused by 3rd party sim unlock or FRP removal and meddling with knox.
I have been trying to get around this problem and it seems it is either a security measure to disable nfc payments on triggering knoxguard or problem with modem.
this problem started after CSJ3 update afaik and only on some phones, if someone can explain this would be great.
Solution:
You will lose all data so backup is recommended
Remove your SIM card, re-install the firmware with ODIN and check Nand Erase auto reboot and F. reset time
Check your KG status(checking or prenormal) on the bootloader, and in settings>device care you will see Security is disabled and it crashes when you click it.
I also noticed the settings menu is weird with many broken options and dailer codes dont work anymore.
EDIT: Workaround Solution:
THIS IS FOR G892A ONLY who have problem with NFC after updating to builds after December 2019
Disclaimer: do at your own risk and can break your phone signal or system detected as rooted/custom
note: you will lose all data, ONLY check "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" in odin
1) Backup your data
2) Delete your google account, so FRP : OFF in bootloader (this can cause problems if not done)
3) Flash 5 firmware files G892AUCS5CTC1 (latest rom with march 2020 security) and get back to bootloader
4) Flash 3 files from G892AUCS5CSI3 : BL, CP and CSC
(odin will say PASS, but recovery will give error)
5) select wipe data partition then reboot to system
when the phone starts you will see NFC logo in statusbar means you are successful
if you get errors while using odin: flash combination file : G892AUCU5ASD1 if this doesnt work it means you have different problem (cable, socket, pc, bad chip)
i tried flashing CP file only and phone booted into UPLOAD mode, so dont panic if you get into UPLOAD mode just reboot with 3 buttons to recovery and start over

Hello There!..kind of new about this so..long story short..
Phone had Android 8, and I really love Night mode on Android 9, so...I've found BL, AP, CP, CSC, USER Data ROM for GALAXY S8 ACTIVE AT&T Unlocked, however..I am a little bit afraid of any NAND Erase.
I am not an expert, but I can tell you are. By any chance do you have any vide or graphic tutorial abot how you can perform these actions? It is very odd that I am unable to have any *# codes working, and lately, I've received this odd message about NFC Service has stopped, so...any graphic step by step guide will be highly appreciated it.
I've tried ....soft reset, then factory reset, then flash again ODIN (BL, AP,CP, CSC and USER DATA ) But I have no idea how to back up my data, and it will be very helpful to have G892AUCS5CSI3 as well.
Thank you very much for your time, I hope you can help me and I appreciate very much your time.
The one that I have is AP_G892AUCS5CTC1_CL16888298_QB29841048_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT_meta_OS9.tar
BL_G892AUCS5CTC1_CL16888298_QB29841048_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar

USERDATA_G892AUCS5CTC1_CL16888298_QB29841048_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar
SOLVED!
So...I've followed the steps to install only BL, CP and CSC using G892AUCS5CSI3...however, the system started as usual, and actually did not work =(
RESOLUTION:
INSTALL THE FULL G892AUCS5CSI3. Worked as magic =)
thank you for the thread!!

It is very odd that I am unable to have any *# codes working, and lately, I've received this odd message about NFC Service has stopped, so...any graphic step by step guide will be highly appreciated it.
I've tried ....soft reset, then factory reset, then flash again ODIN (BL, AP,CP, CSC and USER DATA ) But I have no idea how to back up my data, and it will be very helpful to have G892AUCS5CSI3 as well.
Thank you very much for your time, I hope you can help me and I appreciate very much your time.
The one that I have is AP_G892AUCS5CTC1_CL16888298_QB29841048_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT_meta_OS9.tar
BL_G892AUCS5CTC1_CL16888298_QB29841048_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar

You can backup your data with Samsung backup and restore to Samsung cloud or to your PC with Samsung's Smart Switch app.
As for tutorial I'll try to make one with images for the latest ROM G892AUCU5CTF4 dated 20-Aug-2020 with August security patch. I'll upload it later as I still have to backup my phone before updating.
Thanks!
Thank you so much!
Is it G892AUCU5CTF4 a estable versión for S8 Active? Or does it has any other bugs? I had to "downgrade" and now things are pretty cool, however, I would love to have the newest version. Thank you!

It doesn't have any bugs but some people have issue with flashing new builds, if you have this issue just install CSI3 build or earlier

It installed successfully, everything is going well however I am unable turn on NFC. The toggle found in the settings menu is off and when I attempt to switch it on it greys out for a few seconds then the 'NFC keeps stopping' error appears on the bottom of the screen.
I've cleared the cache/data for the NFC app - no luck,
I've performed a factory reset via recovery menu - no luck.
I've installed the previous build 5CSJ3 from: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80903399&postcount=187 with a factory reset straight after - no luck.
... And to top it all off the NFC app is draining my battery.

Same. I also tried CTA2 and CTL1. Everything after CSI3 has NFC crashing and excessive battery drain. I've tried multiple flashes on multiple phones.

I tried again downloading the K1 and J3 builds; neither worked.
Unfortunately there's no alternative download for them... Google points to the XDA forums which seem to come from some Russian forum.
I've gone to an earlier build - 5CSI3 - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80505887&postcount=186 which works.
So it's not a NFC chip issue, yay. Now, just need to figure out what I'll do when the next update hits at the end of this month.

Same.

I don't know what's happening as no one else has reported this issue .
Edit: Yeah, Odin v3.13.1 . No errors being displayed, all green.

Same here. I used Odin 3.14.1, though.

Solution:
You will lose all data so backup is recommended
Remove your SIM card, re-install the firmware with ODIN and check Nand Erase auto reboot and F. reset time

This did not work for me, not even with "Nand Erase" checked.

Same. The problem of the secret dialer codes not working parallels the NFC problem for me; that is to say that it doesn't work on any firmware after CSI3.

SOLVED!
So...I've followed the steps to install only BL, CP and CSC using G892AUCS5CSI3...however, the system started as usual, and actually did not work =(
RESOLUTION:
INSTALL THE FULL G892AUCS5CSI3. Worked as magic =)
thank you for the thread!!

Same. I'm not sure where I originally got it from, but here's a reupload from my archives. I created a list of MD5 checksums if you care to check the five files for corruption.

Hello, everyone,
I tried to install LineageOS on my S10 Plus yesterday. That worked so far, but I found that it didn't have a decent camera app and the Samsung Watch wasn't that easy to connect either. So I thought I'd just go back to the Stock ROM again. I then downloaded the latest stock firmware according to this guide and installed it with Odin. The installation also runs through, after the installation the mobile phone starts and after the start screen there is an Android man with the signature "Erasing". After a few seconds, the device turns off and stays black. Even if I put it on the charger or try to restart it, nothing happens. I keep getting into download mode and recovery, but that's about it. Multiple reinstallations and resets via the recovery didn't help - the phone just won't start.
I used the CSC_... and not the HOME_CSC_... at the firmware is the right one for my phone.
Is there any way I can salvage the device? I'm afraid that something in the memory is defective now, which has nothing to do with the flashing itself. Do you have any ideas?
Many thanks!

EDİT: Anyway, I solved the problem, I flashed the bootloader and modem file that is suitable for my current version from the same site with twrp and the phone turned on. maybe you can solve it by flashing the bootloader and modem file suitable for the current version. try if you want
Thanks a lot, this worked!

I'm glad it worked.
I was very afraid that the phone died, what did you do for 5 days in this state?
Now I have a question in my mind: When Samsung releases an update in the future, will the bootloader and modem files be updated when we update it with odin? won't it be updated? After that, do we will always update manually as twrp? do you have any idea?
Well, I simply didn't use a mobile phone in these days. It was a very "interesting" experience, but not a huge problem. I sometimes opened WhatsApp as Windows App (interestingly, which works without phone).
I don't know, what happens at a Samsung Update, but until Android 13, I will not update (so probatly never). In our German forum (www.android-hilfe.de), a pre rooted and debloated "Stock"-Firmware is provided, but I can't install it, since my Bootloader is too new (V15 instead V14 for the ROM). When it is possible, I will install this firmware. If you are interested, here is the link: https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/...3-2022-stock-rom-v2-0-pre-rooted.1000713.html
