Hello, I have Samsung galaxy a3(2016) phone.
I've update it via settings->update firmware from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 I've rooted it with Odin and everything worked fine but I've accidentally uninstalled Google play services. Afterwards using Odin3.12.3 I've flashed official 5.1.1 firmware. Although Odin said "PASSED" my phone is stuck in bootloop. I've tried again flashing with Odin 3.10.7 but result was the same. I've tried again with both Odins with "Phone bootloader update" but it's all the same.
I've flashed 6.0.1 version again but I'd really like 5.1.1 version if it's possible.
Thank you for your time and answers.

I encountered a strange problem while using Mobile Odin Pro v.3.85 with 4.3 MK6
My phone : Samsung Galaxy S3
I usually use Mobile Odin Pro to flash firmware, i enable inject Root and SU so I wont lose Root and dont increase counter, staying all official.
Let me explain what I did.
I started from 4.1.2 all stock with root and MOP v 3.50 (mobile odin pro v 3.50). Downloaded MK6 firmware from thread in general s3 section and flashed using MOP with ever root: everything okay Im on 4.3. I tryied to open SuperSu and it says there isnt any SU binary with a message saying: "if you just updated to 4.3 install root manually". So i used CF Auto Root for S3 and installed it: once rebooted i couldnt find any SU icon in drawer, had to download latest from Play Store and I was rooted but with counters to "Unofficial" since I flashed with odin.
Now I reflashed 4.3 to avoid getting Unofficial Status: updated MOP to 3.85 latest, it auto downloads flash kernel, flashed 4.3 with everroot (I was already on 4.3 but with unofficial status). All I was hoping to achieve was a 4.3 rooted with MOP 3.85 and all counters to official. For past versions like 4.1.2 it worked!
MOP rebooted S3 and started flashing 4.3: at the end it was in a loop, it continued to flash 4.3 over and over.
Why I got that loop? It was an compatibility issue with 4.3 bootloader and MOP flash kernel?
Have I to downgrade bootloader to ICS first (like I had before)?
I had to go in download mode and flash 4.3 using pc odin, I was so scared! Now im on 4.3 without root but id like to have it with counters set to official.
Thank you, steebro.

Hi! Regarding your boot loop problem, may I suggest that after you flash with MOP, do go into recovery (cwm) and first do a wipe data / factory reset, followed by wipe cache partition. This will give you a fresh rom install. I may be wrong, but that is usually where the problem lies (not doing a wipe data / wipe cache after a fresh (official) ROM install. That's what I have read on countless forums. Hope it helps. Good luck!
Guys,
I update my bootloader and modem to 5.1.1 to install a new rom, I flashed via Odin and pass! But my phone got stucked in the S6 Edge screen on start.
I tryied to flash my nandroid but it was a 5.0.2 rom and I read that the bootloader 5.1.1 don´t downgrad to 5.0.2.
Resuming: The stock firmware 5.1.1 for my version G925I (ZTO) Brazil haven´t release yet.
The emergency recover from Smart Switch try to go back to 5.0.2, but fails in the process.
I tryied to flash an 5.1.1 version from Indian, and UK.
Sometimes pass in the Odin, but when my phone start, after the S6 Edge screen, appears a light blue screen and a Android and begin install. In the middle stops and show the message " Erasing" and the phone keeps rebooting.
Note: Sometimes the same firmware fails in the Odin, and I just flash again and Pass...
I have already tryied to remove the Hidden Img and flash. But goes to the same loop i´ve described.
My hope now is wait for the 5.1.1 for my version (ZTO) and try via Smart Switch or via Odin...
Anyone have any ideas? Thx :crying:

Here is a guide, if you did anything wrong with flashing bootloader + modem. Try it again and read every step carefully and BE SURE TO DOWNLOAD THE RIGHT MODEM + BOOTLOADER! The models are just under the guide.

After that find a G925I 5.1.1. As long as it's the right model, it should work. Doesn't matter if it's for your own country.
You're seeing "Kernel not seandroid enforcing" or "Recovery not seandroid enforcing" on the top in red when trying to boot, right?
If so, this should fix it.

Thx man, but I fixed removing the Hidden.img, cm.bin and sboot.bin files in that were inside the .tar file and Flash! WORK!!! Now im with 5.1.1
I flashed a custom ROM on my s6 but its not doing the trick. I'm a bit of an amateur at rooting androids, accidentally deleted the stock ROM and didn't make a backup. The problem now is that it doesn't matter what stock firmware I use it doesn't work. Tried using Odin and flashing through twrp but it never works.
I have Samsung s6 sm-g920l neither 5.0 or 5.1 stock firmwares work
, settings now says I've got sm-g925k but that stock firmware doesn't work either. Even tried changing it back to g920l in build.prop, but still nothing.
Just want a proper Samsung phone again. Any help?
Good Evening!
I own a samsung galasy s7 edge(g935FD). Running marsmallow. I rooted it and now i don't want root anymore, so i decided to flash stock firmware (G935FXXS1BPIB_G935FXSA1BPHC_XSA) in odin.But when it's finished it says updating frimware but when it gets to 32% it starts erasing and when i open it it awlays stock in recovery mode. whenever i flash the original firmware it always get the same issue. PLEASE HELP ME .
THANK YOU.
Hey guys! I used to have a custom rom, but ever since an update my phone got slow. So I tried different roms, but all of them are having issues with video playback. I downloaded the stock rom from sammobile.com, and flashed it using odin. I got an error with the file sboot.img so I deleted that (people advised me it, so I gave it a try). Now I have got another issue: It's stuck at the samsung galaxy s6 sm-g920f powered by android logo. Also can't boot into recovery, any help??
Finally fixed this!!! I downloaded a newer version and that worked
