FLASHING WITH ODIN
Odin 3 v3.07 :- http://d-h.st/er8
Install USB Drivers of your Device and remember an odin flashable file is supposed to be in .tar or .tar.md5 format only.
Lets Begin :-
1. Extract the Odin file from the zip.
2. Open Odin3 (Run As Administrator).
3. Put your device in download mode. To do so, press Vol-Down And Home And Power Button all together and when it vibrates release Power
Button. You should have a triangle with an android janitor while it's saying downloading...
4. You should see a blue rectangle with COM:xx and saying Added. It means that your device is ready to be flashed!
5. Go into the PDA section and select your .tar file.
6. Dont check any option (F.reset time and Auto reboot are checked by default) Let them stay like that.
7. Now click Start.
8. When it's finished, it should say that it's done with a green box and your device should reboot by itself

That only works with ota update. If u flash odin flashable stock firmware then surely u will lose root privilege.

Thanks Manoj and Koushik but either of your versions seem rather contradictory.
So, I'm rooted with I8552XXAMJ7 and want to upgrade to the latest firmware, which is I8552XXAML3. So, if I use triangle away and set binaries to 0, will I be able to get OTA updates (and keep root with the help of SuperSU OTA survival)? Or if I just flash I8552XXAML3 with Odin, will my device still be rooted?
Which method do you think has a better chance of keeping root? Have you tried any of these methods yourselves?

I have just received a notification to update software. I downloaded the update & phone booted into recovery but failed to install update.
Could that be because I have rooted the device ? what is the solution for this ?
Because of the root you can't update normally. I'm not sure if you can take the update what your phone downloaded and flash it yourself.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
An option is to choose a custom ROM and follow its updates as they will most likely include important updates in their future versions.
You can only update with kies as your rooted, root will removed after update so you will have to re install.

Do I need to install stock rom of just stop after the changes done by Triangle Away ? I am running the stock rom that shipped with the device but I rooted it......all I want now is to unroot to be able to install genuine software updates

The only thing stopping you installing these updates is the custom recovery, not root itself. You could use mobile ODIN to flash a stock recovery from a stock rom, and then you can get official updates.
Or like many on here, just wait for word on a new update, download it from Sam Mobile and use ODIN (or mobile ODIN) to flash

I was rooted with Chainfire. All I wanted was OTA updates.
Very simply update your phone with the latest chainfire root - 6.4 i believe (just install over the existing chainfire if this is how you're rooted). Install the OTA's. Reflash again with 6.4 and you'll have your up to date OTA's and rooted. All took 10 minutes

I am rooted with CF v6.1 & whenever phone reboots to recovery to install updates it fails. Why would it work with v6.4 ?!
is there a way I can download the updates only on the PC & flash them with oden ? on sammobile, they have the updates integrated in a ROM.

if u cant upgrade thor 'Kies' then the only other option left for u, is flashing the latest Firmware thro 'ODIN'. which in turn will unroot ur phone for sure
but u can always re-root ur phone, with various option available though

BVLPD is ur current firmware, while BVLPB is ur Baseband/Modem/Radio. so u can upgrade to the latest build one thats BVLPH
From the moment you root a device ..or even worse ....root & install a custom rom & kernel ...Samsung doesnt even know the device exists anymore ...so of course Kies won't work ...that's what the Yellow Warning at boot up ..is all about
Its basically alerting you .....your warranty is now void ...no more support from Samsung ....your actions can change system files ...in return damage the OS so bad that it can never recover ....only sending the device back to Samsung or other official service center may fix it ...but no guarantee ....etc .....& you need to unroot... before you can do that ....
but if the device crashes & won't recover because the OS has been damaged ...then you will never be able to unroot ...
Root is the ability to alter the OS ....SuperUser Access "Administrator "
No Root ....basically Samsung is the SU or Admin

Just download the correct firmware and it will work. Same thing happened to me a week ago. If you have updated your Mega recently, and flashed an old firmware, that is what happens. So flash the new firmware, let it boot and if it doesn't, go into recovery and wipe data.

I downloaded Russia firmware and Iran's firmware for my i9200 and flashed them with odin 3.07 and 3.09
but after odin finishes flashing the rom and i expect the phone to turn on, i only see the LOGO of samsung and a red line in upper part of the screen that has written: SECURE FAIL : KERNEL
do i have to download the latest firmware?? cause Iraq firmware is the latest one
also because my internet is very slow and i pay money for each Gigabyte that i download i have to w8 until 2:00 am so that my internet becomes free ( 2:00 - 7:00 am is free) so that i can download another firmware

I am sorry so I did not mention it, but it was for me selfevident so you need to download LATEST firmware for your region (all firmwares later than xxxUCNA1 should do. Of course there is one unknown - what kind of firmware you were flashing the first time. )
Although you did not post what firmware you were flashed at the beginning and what you are downloaded now, in my opinion red line means so you probably are trying to flash older firmware without knox, while the first one which cost you troubles, was new kind with knox and, what is even more important, new bootloader . This new bootloader prevent from flashing older firmwares (without knox) and such attempt can be source of soft brick. Unfortunately this situation is irreversible and from now on you can flash ONLY newest firmwares containing knox and new type of bootloader.
So find firmware not older than from the beginning of this year suitable for your region and flash it. That should cure problem immediately.

I flash a UAE Saudi Firmware just to remove the Telco Boot animation (Globe), because It sucks.... lol
I also Received 187MB update in Pakistan.. It is not Lollipop update. It is Lollipop Preparation update packing kitkat 4.4.4. So, I think we will soon receive Lollipop 5.1.1.
Received a 98.51MB update but can't install. Phone is rooted and TWRP recovery installed. After the update downloads and the phone reboots an error "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" appears on the screen and the phone boots into recovery. Is there a way to install this update ?

Would like to go the stock rom route but would like Kies backup before doing this. Kies has refused to connect to my phone currently on 4.4.4. Have tried two laptops. The phone is rooted with TWRP recovery. Have downloaded the Russian firmware to upgrade to 5.0.0 but flashing with odin keeps failing at modem. Why can't I flash this firmware ?

Update available for SM-G530H dual sim (INDIAN INS version) after flashing stock rom from sammobile. Update size is 306.91 MB. Anyone tell me what's it !!!
Flash via ODIN.
This package has the hidden.img file, removed from the firmware, so it should give you no error.
Just flash and enjoy it.

Flash via ODIN.
This package has the hidden.img file, removed from the firmware, so it should give you no error.
Just flash and enjoy it.

It's the Lollipop version for the nordic countries. Much more stable.
No, it will not trigger KNOX. Do not flash a custom recovery, that will trigger KNOX.
It's safe to flash. Go for it.
Yes, it's official Samsung firmware.

So far so good. I'm using it and there is no draining issue. I also did a factory reset after installing this firmware.

I read in another forum that when we flash a rom without the hidden image, the modem is not updating and we have to :
a) extract the rom and find modem.bin
b) open odin and flash modem.bin in the CP section of odin.
Can someone verify that this is true?

Not true.
I thought I would flash this to see if this fixes the wireless charging problem, but it does not. At present, on Lollipop the phone does not fully charge via Qi. Only charges upto 69%.
Is there a way to root this version?
why is this version 2GB when most i see are ~1.3

This is Lollipop Official Stock Firmware. I checked the Nordic, German, French and Romanian versions...they all have over 2GB.
So it's all ok, relax.
