SM-J500FN Problem - Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers

Hey guys, I had an old Samsung J500FN and decided to buy a new battery and use it.
After installing the battery the phone turned on normally saying "custom binary blocked by frp" so I decided to flash the original firmware from sammobile using odin.
After flashing the firmware and getting a "PASS" in odin the phone is completely dead, not charging, not turning on, no download mode, no recovery mode, nothing.
Does anyone have and ideas how i can fix it?
Thanks in advance.

HELP !! My Note 4 (SM-N910F) Bricked After Official Marshmallow Update !!

Hi
I have this Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM N910F). I am here in Pakistan. I purchased my Note 4 from UK and Its on EE. I was using it here and it got an Official OTA Update of Marshmallow which I installed. After a couple of days, my phone automatically got bricked. I contacted a local mobile repairing shop who dumped some other unbranded international firmware which changed its CSC too [CSC after updating unbranded firmware = (N910FOXX1COH1)]. The firmware was not working properly and had glitches.
Now i want to flash its stock EE Firmware which i have downloaded. I tried to flash it with ODIN but then i noticed that the CSC was changed so i tried to change the CSC by rooting the phone and for that i reboot the phone in Download Mode. The phone usually goes to black screen and does not start after proper power off and I need to soft reset it (By pulling the battery and draining battery charges) in order to turn it on everytime. After a couple of restarts in this way, the phone finally stopped to turn on. In download mode i had an error of "PIT File not found" while i tried to root it through ODIN. I tried to normal boot the phone but now it doesnt boot at all.
I need to boot it so that i may change my CSC to flash my stock firmware (please tell me if changing CSC would be necessary, Current CSC = N910FOXX1COH1,
Required CSC = N910FEVR1DPE1)
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Try to flash your EE rom with pit file for note 4 910f.

Thanks for the reply !
Is it necessary to change the csc to UK region before flashing the UK firmware ? My phone is not booting to download mode either right now. Earlier today it was booting infact i tried to exit from download mode 2 times by pulling the battery but every time it automatically reboot to download mode. That was the moment when i shut down the phone by pressing home + power and after that it doesnt turn on
UK firmware includes UK csc. Then you don't need to change it manually.
But if your phone won't turn on I don't know how to recover it. (try to Recharge your phone and then go to download mode. I think your battery is fully discharged. )
If you can able to access download mode, flash firmware with the pit file using Odin.

Stuck on Samsung Logo Odin and Wipe done

Hi, I recently became a Galaxy S6 Edge+ as a gift, which is stuck on the Samsung Logo (blinking). I am not new to flashing Firmware and Roms (came from the HTC HD2 and Dell Streak 5), but everything I do, I can not come through this. Now I need your help, since it's my first Samsung device. Maybe I have something forgotten?
My device:
SM-G928F with Regional Code AUT (free Switzerland firmware) --> Also Samsung Smart Switch shows me this AUT Version (but it wont recognize it, shows it after typing in the serial)
What have I done:
Samsung Smart Switch does not recognize it.
The last 24 hours I have downloaded the firmware through SamFirm 4 times, I have flashed the phone via Odin about 8 times, after the flashs I have wiped the cache and resettet data (full wipe) through the recovery. One time, the phone came to the android optimatization, but it was stuck on the last app (was 30 minutes on this), after reboot it was stuck on the Samsung logo.
Now I need your help. What can I do further? Do I missed something? Any ideas?
Something strange I noticed: When the phone is off and I plug it in to the wall, the battery drains. I have to put the phone to Download-Mode to charge it. Is it linked to the firmware problem? The charger is original Samsung.
So, I flashed TWRP, the Note7 Deodexed Rom and SkyHigh kernel, but it's the same... any sugestions?
I read about a pit file, what is that? May be this the solution?
What I did the last 3 houers was to test Smart Switch With the mac version, the rescue function did not work, the hole program crashed each time. On the windows version it suceed, but my phone is showing just the blinking Samsung logo. Every now and then it vibrates, but nothing happens, so I am at the start of the problem again. Any ideas?
Next update: I flashed the original firmware with a pit file 3 minutes ago. I learned a lot, learnt that the pit files are the partition-files. Now I'm hoping, that with the new partitions it will boot properly :good: . Stay tuned!
Still the same issue. Please help me
Whenever I start the Recovery, it says "installing system update" and then there is a dead Android, does this matter?
A 4 part firmware with pit file did not help. I downloaded another Firmware from another source, also the same. Now I will do a downgrade and look, if this helps. Pleeeeease, help me!
Infos from the download mode:
Produkt Name: SM-G928F
CA_Type: CA_3
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System status: Custom
Secure Download: Enabled
Know warrenty void: 1 (0x0203)
RP SWREV: B:3 K:0 S:1
Maybe the TWRP Log helps: There are errors in writing, is there something missing? It is the original firmware, with the newest TWRP and SuperSU installed. Still stuck on Samsung (animated) logo.
Listen do you have windows on ur mac i use parallels
but do you have windows anyhoe

Same here
Hello,
I'm quite new here, but not with flashing.
My son got an S6 Edge plus too, with almost the same problem.
I tried also almost anything, the last few days.
ADB sideload, Odin several versions.
It started out with FRP lock.
After I tried al I could find I think it bricked.
And now it is in the state as described above.
Only first screen and draining the battery if not in download mode.
And when I put it on USB cable it says: "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software."
But Smart Switch doesn't recognise the phone!
I can however get the phone in download mode by pushing vol. down, power and home and then vol up.
But in Odin only works: Pit, CP and CSC.
With AP and BL I get errors and fails.
Please help?
For me AP and BL works with Odin. I am a step furhter now. First I flashed with the option: Erase All Nand. Then I installed TWRP and a made a repair for the System and the Caches partitions. With SuperSU installed, and the caches wiped (manual, dalvik and normal caches), it says "Android is starting, Optimizing Apps" and then "Androis is starting, Starting Apps" on a blue screen and when it loads to the end, it is stuck there.
.You get only the first Samsung S6 Edge+ Screen? Then the system files are missing, there is no OS to start (flashed with AP in Odin). Your flash problem sound quite strange. Did you test another cable?
If you want to do it with Smart Switch, the phone should be in download mode. I also had to try it several times. Did you installed the drivers?
@ KatariaMax: I have Windows and Mac PCs, no Parallels. Does it work with Parallels?
So, one problem less. With the Audax rom and kernel, the phone charges normally (but not with Quickcharge), so I don't have to put the phone to download mode. But here is the same problem, after "starting apps" it is stuck. I will do a log from the install, maybe this helps.
@ HugoGroot: Maybe the second post could be the solution for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/s6-bricked-t3497687
I read about Sony devices, which are in a bootloop because of the battery. Could this be possible also for Samsung devices? I have bought a battery, just to be sure. Any other suggestions?

Did i just brick my brand new A5 2016 ??!. Problem Solved

EDIT: Problem solved!!!
I used this tutorial: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...very-samsung-sm-a510f-fd-exynos7580-t3314399/ to install TWRP and root my SM-A510FD on 6.0.1 . My device was rooted and working perfectly until stupid me decided to turn off "OEM Unlock" and i restarted my phone and now it says "custom binary blocked by frp lock" The only thing i can do is go to the Download mode. I tried to use Samsung Kies and Smart Switch when in Download mode but they tell me that my device is not supported. But Odin detects my device and says "Added!!". I am currently downloading the stock firmware for my device from Sammobile and i plan to flash it using Odin.
- Will putting the firmware file in the AP section of odin and clicking start work to fix the problem? (I do not care if i will loose data)
- If this will not work is there anything else that i can do? I can't take it to repair because Knox is tripped and i do not have my receipt. If my phone is bricked forever please tell me so i don't waste my time trying to fix it.
Thank you so much in advance! Any help would be extremely appreciated!!

Just flash stock firmware and you are good to go, if it wont boot turn it off, reboot to recovery(stock) and wipe data & factory reset, later you can again flash twrp and root but dont turn off OEM unlock.

What about when my j7 says custom binary blocked by frp lock(boot.img) secure fail:kernel. It will boot into recovery, and download. Factory wipe does nothing, so recovery mode is useless to me at the moment. my computer detects the phone enough to say Unknown USB device (Device Descriptor Request Failed) driver error as the label of the phone. No matter what mode I'm in. Drivers are up to date, odins good, usb port, computer, and data cords are all good. I've flashed other phones and hooked this one up to another pc to see that it says the same thing. How do I get the computer and/or odin to agree with my phone enough to pick it up as a good device?

Samsung S8 - Custom binary blocked by FAP lock

Hello all,
I have been a long-time peruser of this site, but this is the first time I couldn't find a good answer to my issue.
My phone (SM-G950F) ran out of power, I didn't notice till after it died completely. When I tried to turn it on while charging it displays the message "Custom binary blocked by FRP lock" on the logo screen, then turns off. If plugged in to a charger, it'll just keep booting like that in a loop. I'm not even able to access recovery, only the download mode. I'm not against factory resetting my phone, however I have important data that in the phone storage I need to keep. I have searched online and youtube with no success.
Any ideas or suggestions will be much appreciated.
NOTE: Before the phone battery died, i wasn't tinkering with any setting that may lead to this; just regular use
flash it with odin
Flash official firmware..but make sure to use HOME_CSC not CSC...to keep your data...then boot direct to download mode after flashing ia done and flash twrp recovery

Yes I have tried flashing everything BL, AP, CP, CSC
I'm thinking, I'll try to update on Marshmallow OS(Other Country) but I'm afraid that I can't downgrade to Lollipop which is the only OS available in my country.
Any idea why this happened?

I think it's because of the battery, I returned it to the owner since I don't have the tools to open the phone. Thanks @Arealhooman
Have the same issue with Galaxy A3 (2016), it just doesn't boot up. It tries a few times on its own or just gets stuck. Tried to flash it with ODIN but didn't help. I can't really imagine its battery related. Might just be a fried chip on the motherboard...
