Did you confirm the phone model number on download mode?
Start over by using Odin to flash a stock ROM.

Flash a stock rom via odin and start over. You need to root the phone via chainfire, then you can mess with apps like those.

Phone Bricked

Hi, I was installing CWM and cyanogen on a Galaxy 5 that was supposedly rooted, but it was not, then i get a bootloop, retryed and got the same, then I tryed to install a downgrade through Odin but then I get a brick, and now everytime I turn on, normal or "download mode", I get this screen

Help Please!
OneClick Unbrick is for all Samsung-Devices who uses Odin3. Maybe that works for you.
download another version of CWM and use it with Odin....
i recommended CWM v6.0.1.2 or CWM v5.5.0.4

Don't worry, this happened to me the first time I tried to install a custom rom aswel. Just hook your phone to your PC. Hold down "Vol down key", "Middle D-Pad Button", and "Power On/Off/Hang Up" keys to put the device into download mode. let the drivers install. download and open Odin. Odin is a Samsung program to flash android onto the device. You have 2 choices. You need an Ops File and the files for either a stock rom or a tar file of clockworkmod to install a custom rom. I know how scary this can be, for a week I had a bricked phone... email me if you need any of these files, I'll be happy to help a fellow G5 user

[Q] Bootloader destroyed - download mode stopped working

Hello everyone
I need the help of some professionals around here
I just made a mistake while trying to root my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (P7500) with Stock ICS (4.04) on it. I did the following:
I followed this a Tutorial to root the tablet with Odin.
1) I booted the tablet into download mode
2) Then I used odin to update the bootloader
3) Instead of clicking the "PDA" button in Odin I clicked the "Bootloader" button and started the flash process - which was the mistake
3) After this the tablet restartet
The problem is now the following. I cannot boot into the download mode anymore (the normal system still boots fine). When I press volume up + power the selection screen appears. When I then choose download mode, the screen turns black and the tablet restarts. I seem to have destroyed the bootloader.
So all methods to root the tablet with ODIN for flashing a new bootloader fail because I cannot get into download mode anymore.
So I tried the root method by copying the Rooting-Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-10.1.zip to the root directory. Then I went to the stock recovery mode and choose the option "update from external sd card" to install the root. Unfortunately I get the following message: "E:unknown volume for path [/sdcard]". I cannot find any way to choose a file. I read the the mount point in ICS to /sdcard is set during the boot process so its not available in the stock recovery mode.
So I am kind of stuck now because I cannot use Odin and also cannot use the stock recovery mode to do anything.
I also tried the following:
Reset to factory defaults - Didnt helpt still cannot get into download mode
Install Mobile Odin to flash a stock bootloader - did not work because there is no root
Does anyone of you have an idea? I am really stuck at the moment and would appreciate any help.
Try the emergency firmware recovery or re initialization tools in Kies and see how you get on. Never used them myself though so don't know how they're supposed to work. (May just try to invoke download mode?! I dunno!)

I would try a comple, and I mean a COMPLETE drain of the battery. It'll take a week but maybe that's your best option

If you've got Clockwork Mod recovery installed, you should be able to install superuser to give you root permission.
Or are you still running stock recovery?

[Q] Galaxy Tab p4wifi Boots in Downloading mode only

I've been running CM10.1 for quite a while with no issues, but I decided to "experiment" with a 10.2 ROM that I found. I've managed to brick the tablet to the point where I have 2 boot options:
1) With no intervention, it boots directly into Download mode
2) I can hold the power button and volume key and get the option for Recovery or Download, but Recovery mode does *NOT* work. It just blinks and stays on the screen with the Recovery and Download options.
I've tried flashing with ODIN, but no luck. On the downloading screen, there is a message at the top left that says: "Reason: No Kernel". I'm not sure if this actually means there is no kernel on flash or if it is unrelated.
The other information on this screen is:
Secure Mode: Secure
Check Signature: Check
Custom BInary Download: No (0 counts)
Current Binary: Samsung Official
Waiting for USB cable...
When using ODIN, ODIN reports that it was successful in copying the new recovery image to flash. But, the result is always the same.
Does anyone have suggestions or know what the problem may be? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks!

Samsung Galaxy S4 1337M not booting to recovery

So basically, im a noob. i tried flashing stock lollipop on my galaxy s4 from CyanogenMod with odin, but it says not responding everytime pda is clicked. Now, when i try to boot up the phone with recovery mode (vol up home button and lock) it says "Recovery Booting" in the corner and vibrates twice. Then it tries to boot normally but of course fails with the cyanogenmod splash screen eternally spinning. PLZ HELP i have no other phone
Try a different PC and/or version of Odin. Sometimes Odin does that for a couple minutes and then will finish checking the md5 and work fine afterwards. Can be finicky on some computers.

your device is on a bootloop. you can overcome it by flashing last working official firmware of your device.
& for the lollipop update,
Check whether the update of lollipop is in .tar,md5 format then only you can flash it via odin through PDA option. You can even try Odin_v3.09 & select the AP option or simply follow any guide how to use Odin_v3.09
If the update is in .zip format then install a custom recovery to your device and flash it.
Lastly you can restore your phone by flashing official firmware that previously worked on your phone and then try flashing lollipop update with a fresh start.
Let me know for any other assistance

J7 Prime, FRP Lock, Need Help!

Hello everyone, I am new here, and I want to ask omething, after I turned off my Samung J7 Prime (Trying to restart it), it diddnt restart and says "Custom Binary Blocked by FRP Lock", I have stock rom odin in diffrent versions, i thried them but they fail, I saw in one thread that you need to Reformat your device, but when I am trying, to go to recovery mode, It says Recovery is Not Seandroid Enforcing, I cant use Recovery mode, I tried download mode but its blocked by FRP Lock so I cant use or flash orreformat my device, I hope I dont get ****ed! Please help really need all your help! Thank you, Hope my phone gets fixed!
" It all started when I turned off oem unlock and rebooted m phone"
you have to flash a stock firmware for your device to fix this mess up, to that you have to download the firmware according to your device's exact model and flash it under download mode.
you said you cant access download mode but i dont think if there is a possibility of lock down of Download mode by frp. First Remove the Battery and place it back to make sure it is completely switched off then Try again to enter Download mode.
press: Volume down+home+power buttons simultaneously for 5 or more seconds until the blue download screen appears.
then connect it to odin to flash the stock rom you downloaded.
hope this will fix your issue.
hit thanks if helped..

Strange, if you have a stock boot image then why its still blocking it. is it a backup or you downloaded the image from internet. if downloaded make sure that it matches exactly with your device's model.

Wait, I will check, but just to make sure what kind of file should a stock rom be?

when flashing with odin you just have one file in the package ending with .tar.md5 all the images required like recovery, boot, system, etc exist in that file itself.
