Returning Rooted Bricked Phone - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. I have a galaxy s6 that I tried to flash with official firmware 5.1.1 via odin. I was rooted before that. The flash failed and now it says to use Verizon's software utility to restore the phone. That utility doesn't work and the reps at the store had never heard of it.I literally can't fix the thing. No amount of flashing in download mode helps. It always fails.
Anyway, I went to Verizon and they are sending me a replacement in two days. In download mode it still says that the firmware is official. However it also says samsung custom. (Assuming the root) I don't know if Verizon will backcharge me for this. Is there any way to get rid of the custom status? When I put it in the box to return it I'll leave it on the System Software Update Failed screen.
Remember I can't flash via odin, that just fails. Samsung smartswitch doesn't recognize the device. Recovery mode is a no go.
Thanks for the help!

What's the error message in Odin?

Official 5.1.1? It's possible you were trying to flash a lower build....on 5.1.1, you've got to try flashing the same build or higher, it's possible verizon added a downgrade lock

in seems to always fail. I can go back to download mode or be instructed to restore via Verizon's software assistant. Here is what odin has to say. It fails at the system.img Verizon G920V

I was not on 5.1.1 at the time. I downloaded 5.1.1 from sammobile or one of the other firmware hosting sites. I also tried 5.0.2 but that gives me a nand error.

Would perhaps flashing a pit file work? The problem is the the one firmware I originally tried to flash (5.1.1) doesn't have a pit file. The other firmware 5.0.2 does have one but it's only 4kb. I'm not sure if that's right.

Just in case anyone finds this in the future. I figured out how to fix this. I had have a working phone to install verizon's upgrade assitant. It would not work from the exe I found on the internet. From there I had to install it in a virtual machine because it did not like Win 10. From there I simply plugged in my device and it restored it. Use this method if odin doesn't work. I WILL NEVER ROOT AGAIN!

So because you had an issue with your computer, you won't root again? Not sure I understand that, but glad you got it fixed.

Odin failed a flash and I could not reflash with odin again. I don't ever want to have that happen again. It wasn't the firmware I triple verified it before I flashed it. It was the correct firmware.

[Q] GT-S5839i Bricked :(

This is my first thread, so hello!
Me and my sister both have a S5839i, and my sisters just randomly bricked, and it is on a boot loop.
I have tried EVERYTHING online- recovery mode, downloading firmware with odin...you name it.
I have used the totoro_0623.pit file, and on Odin, it said it passed. But then trying with all the other firmware, it didn't work.
Yes, I am using the right version of Odin, and I don't have Kies running at the same time as Odin.
This is what happens when I put S5839IBULL1_S5839IVD2LH1_VD2.tar.md5 into the PDA section in Odin. This is the Germany Vodafone firmware, someone else posted in the forums. I have tried the UK one with the 3 network (what my region and network is) , but that doesn't work either, and comes up with the same thing in Odin.

Am I just stupid, and have missed something, or is there another way? Please note : The phone is not modded in anyway, not even rooted, but the warranty has run out.

Get the official firmware needed on Sammobile.com, you need an account on there. Don't worry it's free. Flash it as PDA on Odin. Make sure your phone is in download mode (volume up+volume down+power). If it boots, the boot animation might start looping. From theres you can access recovery (volume up+power+home). In recovery you wipe data and wipe cache and select reboot. It should work.

Hi
Don't panic !
Is not a brick, but Odin doesn't support one file (PDA) package.
You need to use Odinatrix to create a 3 files firmware or download a 3 files firmwares

I used Odin 3.07, and that worked... but when the phone loaded and installed - it said "Failed to mount /data (invalid argument)" and continued to boot loop. I thought by installing the firmware and re-partitioning it would fix that :/

Format the data
Put the pit file and tick Repartition. And then flash with Odin.
And you have to use Cooperve pit, not Totoro, it's for SGY
Yeah, I have ticked the re-partion and stuff. Apparently totoro works with Ace as well? All the tutorials say that...
I will still try though
Edit: Tried and still no luck....

Can someone please help me I was on CM 10.2/CM11 and wanted to restore factory images, because my Audio Plug-In didnt work properly anymore and my screen had some pixel errors.
I tried to flash a CWM touch recovery, but that did work only once - then flashed the bootloader downgrade Restore_Bootloader_XXBLFB.zip, but
I still couldnt flash any factory firmware
I also tried this here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2083860
Tried method 2 of that one, didnt get me in position to install the stock firmware.
Does anyone have any advice?
I still can enter CWM (or install it) and can enter Download Mode
I tried 4.3, 4.1.2 and 4.0.4 , nothing worked
Update #1 I could reflash cyangenmod over cwm again and my cell works too. *phew*
How do I get back to stock rom? Meanwhile I'll try mobile odin
update #2
mobile odin worked, got back to stock. just letting u know.
Have you tried another version of ODIN? I used to have some issue with version 3.0 and above. So it seems that version 1.8.5 is more stable that the new ones... try redownload your ROM, maybe it has some issues too.
Finally, use SAMSUNG SG3 TOOLKIT, I have used that too and without any issue.
Good Luck

I don't remember other than I was at 4.3. I had my phone rooted using SuperSU and I tried unrooting so I could download the latest OTA. I was still getting errors to install updates after disabling SuperSU and was getting sick of my phone constantly trying to update so I decided to try to revert back to stock. I downloaded Odin and the TAR file I mentioned and followed the instructions to restore back to stock ROM. I received that error and found in another forum that someone got it to work using CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505. I tried that to and same issue. I can't find any other solutions.

You need to find what build you were on because you can't flash an older build. You can only flash your original build or newer. If you want the latest OTA, (Kit Kat), you need to download the .tar file for that.

I think you might me be over complicating things. If you're going with NC5 (Kit Kat) and you can use Odin, I think all you're going to need is the .tar file.

Hi,
I've been trying to revert to stock rom just like the OP. As you'll see my adventure ends at aboot.mbn.

Hi guys,
1st thing thank you for the informations and knowledge i have learned here at XDA.
I have the same problem . I have done all i believe i can from all the research i have done and come acrossed. Hands up in the air and i surrender.
Need some help
If anybody could please fhank you so much...
It looks like you are trying to unlock the wrong baseband version.
The only Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 (SCH-I545), aka jfltevzw, that has an unlockable bootloader is the one that has the baseband version "I545VRUAMDK".
And once the baseband is updated to a newer one, it cannot be downgraded.

[Q] Softbricked my S4 ;(

Hey everyone,
I tried updating my Verizon Galaxy S4 to Lollipop via Samsung Kies. The update process produced an error message (at app. 10%) and offered me to start the recovery process, which failed subsequently. Needless to say, Android OS does not work, however I can still boot into download/recovery mode.
I've been trying to flash various stock ROMs via Odin 3.10 with no success. The build numbers of the ROMs I've been trying to flash contained the I545VRUFNC5 number, since I tried preserving compatibility with the previous (Stock) ROM that had the same build number. Prior to flashing Lollipop via Kies, I made the made a screenshot (attached below) in case I ran into some kind of trouble. It contains the Model/Build of my S4.
I've also tried using a PIT file during the flashing process with no success.
The error message Odin gives me always reads:

The main question is whether I need to stick to build I545VRUFNC5 to reflash. If not, which Stock ROM am I able to Install via Odin without bricking the phone further
For exact phone model/specs pls open the screenshot below. I would also be very grateful if someone could provide me a stock ROM (name/link/version) that I could flash via Odin to resolve the mess Kies and I created.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply. Sadly, I don't have a custom recovery flashed on my phone. I already tried flashing TWRP and the process resulted in a similar error message as described above (auth fail/error). I've already performed a factory reset via the stock recovery, so the data is already gone

Bad mistake to do TWRP. With reading, you would have known that TWRP is restricted to MDK... Safestrap(@hashcode) is what you have to use. Or Flashfire(@chainfire) or the New Multisystem tool by @hsbadr... Use Odin, get the zip, and flash it in the PDA( or AP) slot. I fixed my friend's when he did that, but he got lucky...

No mate, since the bootloader seems to be locked. It simply didn't flash TWRP - the stock bootloader is still present and running. Trying to flash TWRP was kind of a desparate measure, since I don't have OS access to flash/install any of the above. Also, my phone was 100% stock Kitkat 4.4.2 with no root access
Resolved the issue! =)
The problem was in that the Lollipop update process had already been started (unsuccessfully), Odin was "seeing" the flash process as a downgrade - so it wouldn't allow it.
I tried flashing a stock Lollipop ROM via Odin and it worked like a charm
Thanks for your support.

Samsung Galaxy S4 (SCH-I545) Verizon Help Needed (Soft-Brick)

Hello,
I borrowed my roommates Verizon S4 (SCH-I545) and I soft-bricked it. I had a different carrier and needed to root/unlock it, and after a day I was unable to send texts or use data, so I tried to install a recovery to flash a ROM.
However, once I tried to install a recovery, it would not longer boot and would say "Software Update Failed" and it tells me to use the Verizon Software Repair Assistant.
So, I tried using Odin to flash the stock, but I ran into trouble because this phone is on 5.0.1. On Odin, I would have the COM marker light up yellow, so I know the phone was at least recognized.
I also tried to find a Verizon Repair exe file (using windows), and I think I found one for Samsung, but it does not recognize the device being connected (even though Odin does)
Is there anything I can do to save this phone and return it to my roommate?

I also tried to find a Verizon Repair exe file (using windows), and I think I found one for Samsung, but it does not recognize the device being connected (even though Odin does)
Is there anything I can do to save this phone and return it to my roommate?

Do you know what baseband version is on the phone? When Odin initially failed for me it was because the phone was running 5.0.1 and I tried installing the earliest software. Then I downloaded the newest firmware (OF1) and flashed it successfully.

Installing an older firmware likely will fail. Moreover, your download was likely incomplete. That is the most common cause of the file being labeled corrupt. There are other sites you could find the firmware , but the other sites have a weaker reputation
