Hi all-
Thanks for the awesome wealth of information-this forum has helped me out more times than I can count! So, I pulled a bonehead move yesterday with my new (to me) AT&T S5 Active - I'm fairly familiar with using Odin and read what I later found to be the outdated root method and unfortunately soft bricked my phone...I started out with a totally stock phone and followed the instructions here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2799754 - to try to downgrade my phone from the most current 5.1.1 PB5 firmware to NE4 in order to use Towelroot. As I did more research I found that the later 5.1 updates prevent downgrading...Odin still allowed me to push the NE4 firmware but now my phone only boots into recovery. I've tried a number of .zip recoveries and later (but not PB5) kernels through Odin but I either get kernel mismatch or other errors and can't get it to boot. Now that I know this phone can't be rooted (which seems crazy to me...thanks Samsung!) I'm just wanting to get it back to stock so I can give it to my Dad and get him off of his Lumia - does anyone have a stock ROM that would work or any ideas how to get back up and running? I'm not finding any newer firmware out there and any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Do you have adb on your computer? If not download it, if you do, boot to recovery and hit "apply update from adb". Now, assuming you are familiar with adb and it's commands, adb sideoload it. If that doesn't work do the Odin thing again and make sure your device is in download mode and after the flash is complete you will have to wipe data/factory in recovery otherwise you'd be stuck in a bootloop.

Hi RAZERZDAHACKER - Thanks for the reply - yeah, unfortunately tried that and all I'm getting is 'E:footer is wrong E:signature verification failed' errors...it's the same whether I try to apply any of the ROM .zips I have via ADB or from the SD card. I'm guessing I need a matching version ROM to the PB5 that I had? I've looked but I can't find a download for it anywhere since it's only a few weeks old...I'd just throw in the towel and bring it to the AT&T service center (as much as I hate the thought of it) if it wasn't about a 6 hour round trip for me.
I can see the pain for a 6hr trip + you are lucky if they even will accept it since you tamper with device. Have you looked at this thread? It might help you.

I think I have the solution!! Remove battery for 5min and boot into download mode and flash via odin! If that didn't work, report the odin log.
Hello everyone.
I hope I'm in the right forum section.
I used DrFone to recover some old photos but after that a notification saying "Unathorized actions have been detected blah blah.."
I tried rebooting, scan etc. but nothing changed at all so I decided to flash a stock rom on it.
I used odin to do that and a stock rom compatible to my device, at the end it failed saying
"Complete(Write) operation failed.
All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)"
I tried to flash it all day with varius rom's but still the same message
I also should mention that I have the latest usb drivers installed and I can't use smart switch because i don't have the device's official box.
I was searching for a solution too but nothing worked either
Please help me I'm really desperate and sorry for my bad english:crying:

My 8gb samsung j2 prime now only has 1gb storage
Hellothere, I have a completely different issue from yours. I posted this here because I'm really desperate for help.
I have a problem with my samsung j2 prime, it all started when I was trying to root it. After every root process I would get locked up from my phone and because of that I had to install custom firmware. I did that process again and again for about 7 or 6 times, hoping to successfully root it, but that never happened, and after that I looked at my internal storage and it only has 1gb instead of 8gb. What can I do to fix this? I think this was the result of installing custom firmware too many times because of failed root attempts. Please help me fix this.
First off, im pretty new to samsung phones. i got a N950F which i installed TWRP on today since i heard it was a helpful thing if you wanted to root, and since i just came from a jailbroken iphone i thought why not. i followed all the guides and made a backup before i did wipe, but now im stuck on the boot screen. i have tried re-installing the firmware but it just says "SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 2. Binary: 1." and fails. any links or videos woul be helpful since i dont want to pay money if i can fix it myself. im using Odin3 v3.13.1 with the firmware file called "N950FXXU1AQI1_N950FOXM1AQHF_BTU_7.1.1_FULL" i can enter download mode and twrp but it can not boot, it reaches the samsung logo and then restarts every 3 seconds. Please help!

My device is a Huawei honor 7 lite (nem-l21) with bootloader unlocked but not rooted. I was trying to install twrp, but i was not able to get it to boot twrp, so i googled my problem and found a person on stackoverflow with the same problem who said that he typed fastboot flash boot twrp.img and it worked. I did that and my phone wont start and it is stuck at your phone is booting now... I have tried using huawei erecovery but it shows the message retrieving packet information failed, and i have tried flashing stock firmware via sd card but it sais that the firmware is not compatible, even though i have tried multiple downloads of the nem-l21 firmware. If anyone will help me make my phone usable again, or tell me if my phone has any chanse of working again, please tell me.
