[Q] Error while using ODIN to flash to stock. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hi, I'm trying to restore my phone to stock using ODIN.
I have Odin 3.09 and have the latest Scamsung Kies installed (for the usb driver).
The file I am flashing is: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23203820527944861
The message log I get from Odin is:

Not really sure what I'm doing wrong. My phone was on the ME7 version (And running a SafeStrap rom) before I wanted to restore it today.

You can't flash backwards. Flash me7.

That makes sense, I wasn't aware that I was using an older firmware file. I'm having trouble finding the ME7 file, could you point me to a copy? Thanks!

That will wipe everything, so make sure to back up your files if you haven't already. Good luck!

Just go to the safestrap app in app drawer on stock slot and uninstall it.

I can't do that anymore, a result of these failed flashes is that I can't boot the system currently.

It says:
FIrmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
I tried using the Kies recovery, but it doesn't detect that the phone needs recovering (both on that screen and the download screen used for odin).

Are you positive you were on me7 and not mj7? Because the error you got for me7 looks the same as the one for mdk...

Positive. I had installed the rom/recovery before anything newer than me7 was released. And I remember when I upgraded from whatever it shipped with to ME7 because the upgrade window popped up and I tapped Install by accident. I had this installed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2351840.
Edit: to confirm, I found my old post asking about the modules to get that rom to work on ME7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46944438

Was waiting for someone else to chime in who may know more than me. Have you tried booting into recovery from being powered off?

No problem, but yeah. After every failure I would battery-pull and go back into recovery.
Edit: Tried a different USB cable and a different computer today. No dice

So when you went to recovery it went to stock recovery I'm assuming? Or you got the error?
If it went to stock recovery did you try wiping everything before flashing in odin?

Try finding a stock recovery tar for your build and just flashing that in odin.

I looked around a little and didn't fine one either. I'd try making a request thread, I'm sure someone knows how to make a tar of it you can use in odin.

Isn't the recovery contained in the larger firmware files? What gain would flashing the stock recovery get?
I'm thinking I might just take the phone to a Verizon store and say, "Samsung kies told me it was going to update my phone, I took a shower and when I came back it was like this".
Edit: I untarred the firmware file, and it contained recovery.img. Can I flash that with odin?

I believe it has to be a tar. If you can get it on there and wipe data/factory reset it may get rid of safestrap and allow you to odin the full stock tar.

If you're coming from ICS or CM7, you need pit file for re-partition.

Ah! Thanks, worked that time.

Trying to root and bricked my phone.

I'm trying to brick my phone using ODIN 3.07 and file name, VRUDMI1_Root_de_la_vega_jfltevzw.tar.md5 but it kept failing at Fail (AUTH). I've since downloaded the factory image for VRUDMI1 (which is what my phone is) from the link found in this thread.
After rebooting the phone and again trying to flash it via Odin 3.07 I'm now getting this error message:

I would start by redownloading the file you're flashing to make sure your current one isn't corrupt. May even wanna try unistalling odin and reinstalling. And you're sure that you are flashing the same version you are already on?

This is a VERY frequently asked question. You're probably flashing the wrong software (i.e. older than what's on your phone). There's a bit more detail on the cause of the "FAIL!" displayed on your phone that could be used to verify the cause.
You're trying to flash a no-wipe image as well. Using a full wipe factory image may work better.

Uninstall and re-install odin? What are you talking about? Odin was in a zip file that I simply had to extract then run. There was no install process nor would their be an uninstall process...

OK, you're doing the right things but it's failing. The next thing to try is to make sure you're using a known good OEM (Samsung) USB cable. Also, try a different port on your PC. Some people have had better success with using the ports on the back of their PCs.
When I run the Root image for MI1 the error in odin is above and the error on the phone in tiny red text is:

The MJ7 file seems to go the furthest but still fails:

Just got the phone this afternoon and am using the white Samsung USB cord that came with the phone. I've tried using the USB ports on the back of my desktop computer (windows 8.1) as well as on my laptop (Windows 7).

When I run the Root image for MI1 the error in odin is above and the error on the phone in tiny red text is:
SECURE CHECK FAIL: CACHE

SW REV. CHECK FAIL; FUSED; 5. BINARY; 3

That is not good news.
Each time VZ updates their software for these phones, they update a value in a fuse.
That started as 1 with MDK, went to 2 with ME7, 3 with MI1, and 4 with MJ7. At least that's what I think the revisions did to the qfuse.
So it's seeing that you're trying to flash a binary with revision 3 (BINARY:3) but it remembers a flash with revision 5.
Now, there's nothing out there that I know of for the i545 that's rev 5 - the next update after MJ7 will be rev 5. So, your phone is probably not going to be recoverable until VZ and Samsung release another software update for the I545. Something corrupted the fuse storing the update level.
You can verify this by flashing MJ7 - it'll probably say FUSED:5, BINARY: 4.
Sorry for the bad news.

The MJ7 file errors with "SW REV. CHECK FAIL; FUSED; 5. BINARY; 3"
The MI1 No-wipe file errors with SW REV. CHECK FAIL; FUSED; 5. BINARY; 4"
Fused value for ME7 was 3. So for MJ7 the fused value should be 5. The binary values are one behind because you're using no wipe odin tars. The dev edition binary values are set to 1. Use the full odin tar instead.

is there a way to edit so called fuse value and binary value in MI1 to read that same value as MJ7 when flashing ?

You are absolutely correct and somehow I managed to download ME7 thinking it was MJ7. I've downloaded MJ7 from here and so far I've gone much further in the flashing process. Crossing fingers.
The correct, MJ7 file did in fact work and the phone is back to life running Android 4.3!
Thanks for all the help guys!

Thanks. That also explains one of the other major differences in the no-wipe tar files, which is something I didn't know.

No, the value in the binary can't be altered without invalidating the signature.
The "fuse" is an efuse that can't currently be reverted. From what I know of how it's implemented, it's simply not possible at all to restore.

Help using Odin to get to stock (soft brick.. hopefully)

So my friend was trying to fix the wifi on his Note while on Sky Rom (4.3), but, for some reason he happened to have clicked a link to the wrong section and was in the n7100 (international) section. He used Odin to flash the MJ5 bootloader which is the international version. Now his phone will only bootloop with the N7100 boot screen appearing. We are not able to access recovery but we can get to download mode. Once we got to download mode I have tried flashing the PIT file, root66, and the official VRAMC3. Each attempt without a PIT file causes this

I went through this last month and check these things:
- Try a different USB cord
- Try a different USB port
- Disable your antivirus
- May have to reboot your computer
When I softbricked a few weeks ago I went through this process for the first time, and I found I had to keep trying over and over but it finally ended up working.
Remember to unlock your bootloader after this process - which I did not and had to redo everything after rooting and flashing and getting the Verizon discovered unauthorized software etc.
Also, I wonder if this is part of the issue, while in download mode I get "PRODUCT NAME: GT-N7100" instead of sch-i605, could this be part of the issue?
And thanks for the ideas Darbylonia, I tried those and even different computers and still no luck.

Did you try looking through the top stickied post about how to recover from a soft brick? I would go there and see if the info helps and post there. I do think it is strange about the product name but there's got to be a fix so keep on...

I tried the Odlin3 approach for full wipe (with 3.09, 3.07, 3.10 version) but I get a fail as posted below. I'm completely stuck. I tried using Kies approach posted on another tread and the approach on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2751461. Both approaches failed. I've downloaded about 20GB of firmware and each fails. When I just try to power on the device it shows the SAMSUNG name and the "Unlocked" icon. Any suggestions?

Try flashing the latest TWRP through Odin. Download it from their website 2.8.6.1 in .tar format and flash. Then flash the stock firmware.
