Hello,
im trying to flash an AP file, modified via magisk app, to my Galaxy S10+ (Exynos, SM-G975F/DS, FW: G975FXXSEFUL1) via ODIN. I´ve installed the magisk app on this clean Samsung device to modify the AP file.
The bootloader is unlocked. But when ODIN is flashing USERDATA, the Downloadmode says: "official signed binarys only" and stops the flashing. The phone can be restored by flashing the original fw.
I´ve also tried to copy the AP file from an to the phone via adb. Also I tried use another official Samsung firmware (Android 12, G975FXXUEGULB) with the same result.
Can somebody help?
Thanks
Mirko

Hello!
I'm trying to install a rom which requires me to update/flash my Bootloader & Modem to the MM ones. Now I'm running into a problem where Odin will freeze at certain parts and after a while it fails writing the file .
I've tried odin v3.10 & v3.12, I've tried different USB- cables & ports and I've enabled USB Debugging and OEM Unlock in my developer options. Any other possible suggestions :fingers-crossed:?
Thanks in advance.
I managed a glimpse of the zip file you downloaded from the ROM thread.
1. BL_G935FXXU1BPJG.tar.md5
2. CP_G935FXXU1BPJG.tar.md5
You're using Odin3 v3.12, and it's clearly stated md5 format is an old model of updating home binary. New versions will only accept .tar files. This would explain the write errors you're getting.
Updating of bootloader and modem require .tar files to be flashed using the BL and CP slots respectively. I suspect you would only need to rename the files to .tar for them to work, but pls clarify with the ROM developer.
Hi guys, to my understanding BL/CP are available in tar or zip formats and may be updated via Odin or Twrp respectively. Appreciate any advice as to differences (if any) between the two methods. TIA
The only difference is that one (.zip) can be flashed via TWRP (this would mean you have a custom rom and a tripped Knox counter). The other (.tar) is signed by Samsung and can be flashed via Odin without tripping Knox.

I reckon this probably means it doesn't matter to flash with twrp or odin if knox is already 0x1.

Correct. I find it easier to flash in TWRP because it's simpler to stay where I am and download the file, reboot to recovery and flash. Rather than going upstairs to my computer, downloading the file, putting phone in Download mode, opening Odin and loading the files, then connecting the phone to the computer then flashing the files.

True that. I only ever return to Odin to flash official firmware in the event of soft bricks with denied access to Twrp, however, was getting confused partly due to written instructions for roms requiring BL/CP to be flashed in download mode. Thanks for clearing this up. Cheers.
my current booloader is version 1...can anybody tell me how can update it to version 4? i am using s7 edge SC02H(snapdragon) japan.
thanks
Looking for the right modem and bootloader files
Hello,
I'm running Nougat on my s7 g930f it's using the tgp rom. In preparation for an oreo upgrade I atempted to flash an odin-zip file I found on LightRom's page, thinking it would give me a modem update. This was an extremely bad idea. Now my system does still boot, but I have no signal at all, my phone number, base band, IMEI, mobile network, etc all show as unknown under settings, about phone and the various status checks. Now when I atempt to go in to odin again to flash another modem update now I'm told that the atempt has failed. I'd appreciate some help. What file do I need to get the bl and the cp file? I'm running twrp 3.2.3, and i'd like my signal back.
Thanks.
Dave.
Hey,
I wanted to root my Galaxy S4 i9505 using CF-auto root. I cheked the version of my s4 i9505 which was i9505xxuhoj2, then go to https://desktop.firmware.mobi/ find my device model and exact same build (i9505xxuhoj2). I generated cf auto root file, boot phone in bootloader mode, unzip file and used odin (which was in that zip file too) to flash this generated file (using AP). Odin gives me FAIL and I cant boot my phone normally because of error during start (firmware upgrade encountered an issue please select recovery mode in kies).
So I flashed stock firmware (using Odin) with another build. This time i9505xxupqg1. Everything went well my S4 was running normally. So i decided repeated the procedure. Go to https://desktop.firmware.mobi/ and genereate cf auto file (this time for build i9505xxupqg1). I flashed the cf auto root file using odin and again it gives me FAIL.
Below screen of that FAIL:

Can anyone help me with this?
Why this is happening ?
Cheers
Flash back to stock, flash twrp, flash supersu from twrp.
Thanks for reply.
I did this earlier what you said and everything was OK.
I had TWRP and Root using SU.
The problem isnt rooting itself.
The point is i wanted to tested rooting with CF-AutoRoot method.
And I'm wondering what am I doing wrong.
I did everyting correctly (exact same device model and build version) and ODIN gives me FAIL like i said above.
If Odin is failing, try a different version of Odin, a different USB cable, and different USB port.
I got the same problem with a Sprint Note Edge that I tried to root the same way. I'm currently downloading the stock firmware from sammobile.com to flash a stock ROM.

Hello
You do not need to generate a CF-AutoRoute, just google and download the original CF-AutoRoute.zip which roots ALL versions of the device, the baseband does not matter.
Ensure debugging is enabled
Place device into recovery (download)
Add device to Odin
Unzip the file, add the .md5 file to Odin and flash, job done.

hey,
Try flashing latest firmware with patched odin
Hi guys, a few months ago I tried to install a custom rom (LightRom) and I was stupid enough to not backup my EFS folder. It stuffed up my Sim card so I tried using a tutorial which said to flash a file called fix.regalstreak. After flashing this my phone was hard Bricked and after flashing TWRP, my phones EFS was empty and no ADB command could fix it. I still am unable to boot into any ROM or stock - even though I can get into the custom Roms install page and my EFS folder is empty with no backup so how do I fix this?
Note:
When flashing stock firmware, if I try to use a pit file with combination of AP, BL, CP, CSC it fails, but if I flash AP, BL or CP it works so CSC has an Issue I think.
However, when I flash with no pit file my phone gets stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S8 screen.
Sorry for the long post
I had the same problem but I managed to solve it by downloading the file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/z0z69kilpala6tu/EFS-SM-G950F-31-08-2018_03-48-37.tar/file after opening in odin put the device in download mode, use odin 3.11.1 open the file in the AP tab then press start, after the procedure, install twrp and install a custom rom I recommend the hades rom 2.0, the stock rom doesn't work the only problem and the device has a null imei
Thank you so much I have been searching for answers everywhere and you have saved my phone

You have to Unlock OEM first
