EFS problem - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I have S6 edge SM-G925F. I tried to flash custom rom,but i didn't backup EFS files. And now as you can guess, i don't have signal. I tried to flash stock firmware with odin but i got error. How can i make EFS work again? Download from somewhere and flash it? If yes,would you share it?

What error did you get flashing stock in odin?
I dont think anybody will share there efs backup.. as you will end up with there imei, which means cloned imei, also its illegal to do that in some countrys.
Best way is to flash the same stock you had before.

Which region are you? Is your phone unlocked or is it locked to a network? What android version was you on?

Download the pit file from the link.
In odin click ap and insert the firmware again. The one you just used G925FXXU4DPGW.
click PIT and insert the pit file from the link. In options you need to check re partition and auto reboot.
Flash and that will fix the hidden.img

I was on android 6.0.1 August 1 st security patch. Im from Bulgaria so region should be Europe.

Did you try to flash the firmware with the PIT?

Try this if pit didn't work ...
Extract the firmware , rename hidden.img to hidden.img.tar
Now flash hidden.img.tar in AP with Odin
BTW : it is possible you have to restart your phone in download mode after flashing the firmware to flash the hidden.img.tar after it
Good luck

You need to create your own thread and describe in detail :
Can you get to Download Mode?
Can you get into Recovery? If so, custom (version>) or stock?
What version of the software / firmware WERE you on?
What did you do to cause it to soft brick?
What versions of the software / firmware have you tried?
Why were you trying different PIT files??
What errors are you having?

Thanks in advance for the help!
Can you get to Download Mode?
yes
Can you get into Recovery? If so, custom (version>) or stock?
yes. I just flashed twp on it.
What version of the software / firmware WERE you on?
I was on 4.4.2 from tmobile stock but it was rooted.
What did you do to cause it to soft brick?
I have been getting prompted for an OTA update for a while and kept putting it off. let my wife use my phone and she clicked approve for the update. The phone then rebooted and never booted back up. I originally thought it was a knox issue but after trying a few different recovery methods, all my errors seem to be directed to the PIT. I am currently downloading the Samsung firmware for 4.4.4 from the Samsung website to try sending over to the phone from odin.
Model: SGH-M919
Model name: GALAXY S4
Country: USA (T-Mobile)
PDA: M919UVUFNH7
What versions of the software / firmware have you tried?
4.2.2, 4.4.2, about to try 4.4.4 when it finishes downloading.
Why were you trying different PIT files??
because the current error is "secure check fail: PIT"
What errors are you having?
from which location? odin or the device?
from the device:
secure check fail: PIT
from odin:
big red FAIL in the first box. message output is below.

[Q] Error while using ODIN to flash to stock.

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

It says:

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 had the thought of doing this, but wasn't able to find one.

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.

Help please

So I have this message on the screen "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies & try again".
I have tried installing alot of new firmware, but it doesn't help. Everytime I'm installing a new firmware it just goes to <ID:0/003> factoryfs.img
<ID:0/003> FAIL!
Someone please help me fix my phone?

Hi there,
Where are you downloading the firmware files from? Is it from a reliable source? Did your phone have enough power to complete the flash? What about a different computer?

Try an Older Version of 'ODIN' and see, Sometimes the latest version do pose Issues for u
I always use ODIN ver 1.85 as it has never failed for me so far

Have you followed this guide before posting on XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/guide-t2345831

I did try that guide, and I got past the usual factoryfs.img but my phones battery discharged, and when I charged it, I still get FAIL at factoryfs.img

Bricked S6 Edge - Odin sees it but flash fails

I am trying to fix a S6 edge. The problem is that when i boot it up it shows me "an error has occurred while updating the device software"
Odin, newest version, does not see the phone. I have searched around and downloaded the G9250ZTU2COKB_G9250ZZT2COKB_BRI firmware for my SM-G9250 and trying to flash it with Odin 3.10.7
It starts but soon after starting it shows me the following error. Any help please? I have searched and found a thread where it says that i need to remove the hidden image from the file but there is no hidden image in it after extracting the tar file.
TIA

try flashing the XEU or BTU firmware.

DON'T do this ^ - your 9250 is a different hardware variant to the 925F/I/T etc models and if you flash a non-9250 firmware you'll likely end up with a paperweight.
Anyone else with any ideas?
