My download mode is working fine. everything else shows snowy/static screen. Also, I thought it was a software issue so tried flashing stock ROM via ODIN. but wasn't sure which variant I have. Only knew it came from the UK. and Flashing failed in the middle. Now I suppose I don't have any active ROM and probably phone doesn't charge because of its only light up when I connect it to my pc. I managed to boot into download mode but I'm not sure about which variant I have. Can anybody help me out here?

If it came from UK or almost anywhere is Europe it is most likely a G925F. If you look in download mode it will say the model. Show me screenshot of your download mode and I'll help further.

Hey, Thanks for your quick reply I managed to find that out Also flashed firmware successfully. but that clearly didn't help.
G925FXXU6ERC1_G925FOXA6ERCC_G925FXXU6ERC1_HOME.tar
But its back again on that Snowy/Static Screen. And when I connect the charger or attach it to the pc, it keeps turning on and off by itself. If you can help me with that
Also, nothing happens by pressing the power button or any combination if I unplug the cable from PC or Charger.
I have attached the image of the Download Mode though if that helps.

So the phone doesn't boot up as normal? Do you have a picture of the static screen? I've never heard or seen this problem before and if flashing stock firmware doesn't fix it then it's possible it's hardware fault.

Nope, Phone doesn't boot as it normally does. It was even before I tried flashing firmware and messed it up. But managed to flash the firmware now. Odin Showed Flashed successfully and PASS and rebooted the phone as it was supposed to do. But after that, it went back to the static screen shown in the attached photo.
Do you know how can I Recover or/and Wipe everything from the phone using download mode?
Well, I took it for repairing and got to know that it happens when RAM stops working and there is a very slight chance of it being repaired which i took but it didn't help. Seems i have to get a motherboard replacement to use the phone again.
Thanks for the people who helped me. I'm closing this post.

I was trying to use odin to get back to a stock rom (UVJFD). Phone was in download, odin was running. Odin suddenly said "not connected" and nothing was listed where com is usually displayed. I unplugged my phone and it immediately displayed a phone, exclamation, computer.
I tried the three button reboot, but it immediately went back to this screen. I've tried all of the options in the 'So you've bricked your phone' stickey, except the soldering method and I can't get it to do ANYTHING.
What do I do? I'm trying to get back to factory. At this point, I may need to send it in.
Just do what you would normally do to get back to download mode. I can't specifically remember the buttons but just jeep trying until it shows up on odin.
Actually I read somewhere that the phone "!" Cpu means that it will already work with odin so I guess try that. Im not certain that it will work immediately. If that doesn't work then do what I said first lol. Don't worry its not bricked this happened to me the day I got my phone hahaha

Phone....!.....PC is just like download mode. I was able to recover from it, when it happened to mine. Maybe the JFD you had was faulty?
But ODIN should recognize your phone.
Completely bricked?

Does that imply that you saw some sort of life in the screen such as any light on the display? If that is the case it is probably worth trying the 301k Resistor method to get to the download screen.
On the other hand if your phone is exactly in the same shape as my phone is then I really feel for you. My screen never shows any life. It appears like the battery is dead and I've tried everything and I know the battery is fully charged.
So my next step is either finding someone with a jtag interface or send it off for repair.
Anyone have suggestions in that next step? Any weekend warriors with a jtag interface where we can send it? Any suggestions as to where to send it (t-mobile is not an option since I'm not using t-mobile)
It keeps rebooting to the icon screen (phone ! computer). I tried plugging it back in, but odin didn't see it.
I'll have to play around with it a bit more to see if I can get it to work.
thx

Odin should recognize it, try using a different ODIN. Make sure ODIN is running first, with the proper files already loaded "PDA, MODEM, CSC" then plug in phone.
that seemed to work. (loading the files to odin, then connecting) Apparently I had a bad ROM image. It's booting up now.
Thanks for all of the help.
Hi folks,
Yesterday my phone was weird: The home button was opening a different page than the launcher (a sort of launcher with a clock and buttons, and when I tapped "escape" it drives to the official launcher), and some functions weren't working (such as the rotate toggle). Looked like something was updated, but a reset was needed.
Then I reseted the device and then it went to the ODIN mode with the green robot and the message "downloading, don't turn off target". It took too long. Like more than 4 hours. I left the device plugged in charger and went to bed.
Today I found the device turned off (probably the updated ended) and I can't boot. Actually nothing happens, no button combination, etc.
I tried to pull off the battery and put it back again, nothing happened.
I tried a soft wipe (hold the ON button for 7 seconds without the battery), nothing happened.
Could someone please help?

I didn't try to install anything.
I was using the latest verision of my country stock rom (The carrier is Claro). The update was automatically, I didn't choose to do that.
The model is I9100GT
Get, buy, borrow another full battery or external charger to charge your dead battery.
If out still won't boot:
try boot into recovery and factory reset
Or
Boot into download mode and flash firmware downloaded from here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Edit: look for only G model firmware.
If none there, use check fus for windows to find and download firmware for your device, then flash in Odin.

I had a similar problem with a kies flash before. If it will go at least into download mode when a charger (not just a USB from a computer) is connected, your battery might be completely flat. try charging it in another phone.
Here is my panic thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22408184#post22408184
Hi Folks,
Thank you very much for the replies.
Now the cell phone is working. I guess that the charger went broke during the night (I have no idea why). I connected via USB and then I heard a sound, after that it went back to the upgrade screen (odin), and I reseted.
Now its working and I have no idea of what happened.
so why in hell would you leave your phone to download mode for night.

Hello buddies,
I think I have a big problem. Flashing failed on my Galaxy S2 I9100. As a result I cannot turn on the phone, I cannot get to Download mode, neither recovery mode, I cannot connect via USB, it doesn't recognize any devise, I reinstalled USB drivers, I tried on different PCs, I only get the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." ONLY when I plug in the charger. When plug it off, it's gone and nothing else appears on screen whatever I try. I just don't know what to do now... I do not have an access with PC. Can somebody help me please, I'm very discouraged now. Every post will be appreciated!
That message on the screen with the phone---!---pc pic is download mode - forced download mode.
The only way you're fixing it is if you get it to successfully take an Odin flash. Find Hopper8's 'Odin won't flash thread' & try the stuff in that thread till it works. Most people in this situation are looking for an easy fix & there isn't one. It may not work the first time you try, but it might on the 10th try. Persevere.
Edit - Oh, and your phone is staying busted until you do get access to a PC.

Thank you veeeery much for this help!!!
There were 2 problems. First my battery was completely drawn and it wasn't charging it at all when plugged in the charger because all the energy was in use for that super power consuming emergency mode (the device was getting hotter than never before). Then I took the battery and charged it fully on another Galaxy S2 (hopefully I could find one). Then I was able to enter the normal download mode. Then I prepared an original ROM and I tried to install it through Odin. The second problem was my maybe faulty cable which didn't let the installation to continue from the initialization. Then I used another unbranded cable from $1.99 and it just RAN! I installed the latest official ROM and the phone works as it should. A happy end I think. There is one more thing however.. Before the new installation the camera had a little pink spot in the middle only when shooting inside. Many say that all S2 have this problem and that this is a software issue of the white balance. I tried to play with the white balance settings and when turn off the auto-balance and for example choose daylight the pink spot is not present anymore... With the new ROM the problem is still here. I was wondering whether if I change the camera itself with a new this will solve the problem...?? But who knows if it's really a soft problem...
Thanks again for the tips it helped me a lot as I'm new to this.
Regards,
Nick.

Hello everyone this is the official odin package for the galaxy mega ATT version. With this you can get your phone back working if you get the "This phone is not running authorized software crap. " etc . Also hope it encourages more people to find a root method without the fear of having a brick. As many of you know this package was nowhere to be found so I had to bribe a Samsung employee to give it to me which means it wasn't free for me but I'm sharing it with you guys so if you send me a beer my way i'll be happy not mandatory.
This package is in multiple parts:
I527UCUBNE7
AP: Must be flashed under PDA in Odin. This is the biggest file and contains your system,recovery and kernel partition Download
BL: This is the bootloader. If you already took the update ignore this but if you want to upgrade your phone you must flash this Download
CP: This is the modem and other network related partitions. You must flash this under Phone in odin Download
CSC: This contains carrier related settings for our firmare. Flash this under CSC in odin. Download
Highly Recommended to perform a factory reset after the flashing is completed. Let me know your results
Omg !! Super thanks bro !!!! =))))))))
So good !!!!! update successfully
Thanks again !!!
so the guys that have tried this can confirm that is working!
and also liked to know how root is being dealt with

Garack has been working on it and has actually posted a file to flash in Odin I beleive. He say that if it boots up, then root should be obtainable.
Not sure anyone has tried it yet.

@ Sunderwear Thank you very much for the great post and instructions. I'm currently testing it out with my i527 AT&T with ODIN 3.09... will post results in a few minutes. My phone was stuck in reboot after official 4.4.2 AT&T update left it in loop mode... give me a few minuytes and I'll post my results!
Too close. I did all the steps, and indeed it passed all Odin steps (picture), but it's still stuck in loop mode. When I try to go into Recovery mode (Vol + and HOME), it will only show the blue letters on top of the screen (picture), then it reboots on its own... no fix do you know a possible fix for loop mode.
If I go to Odin mode (Vol - and HOME), this is what I got (picture)...

Yeah, the screen was replaced a while ago. The phone went bad once it installed the 4.4.2 official update. I will try use some other usb cable. I have plenty of microusb wires. Do you think the screen has something to do with it?

Ok, I used a different port using also a brand new official/original Samsung MicroUSB cable to retest it. :crying: no work, again stuck in loop mode. Tomorrow, I will get another computer to retest this with another one. Will post the results tomorrow.
When the phone loops, I do not have any letters that appear anywhere besides the Samsung Galaxy Mega logo. it just vibrates, and then it restarts without showing any messages/letters.
You mentioned "Red letters at System Upload" is that when I hold Vol - and home? because I only get the blue letters if I do the Vol+ and home.
Thank you for your patience man. I'm sort of a noob, well, not sort of!
I haven't tried this yet...but I will back up tomorrow and report back how it goes with my unit...I still have my factory with no knox bootloader so far..and was debating if I want to even try really...

No worries. I was asking because the same happened to me with a customers phone..got screen replaced..then he took the 4.4.2 ota update..got stuck at samsung logo bootloop..i loaded the firmware like 4 times..re partition with pit file and erase all nand...I would get stuck in the same screen saying entering recovery..So it's an issue going around. Last resort would be sending it to Samsung

Yes Sunderwear that will happen because there is 3rd parties making aftermarket screens and people were buying them as replacements...If you don't have the OEM screen the driver in the firmware won't work and it will hang...I run in to something like this on a Galaxy S4 I repaired...

Sorry for the long delay. I think I found the full issue with the Samsung Glaxy Mega boot loop on 4.4.2
My phone is till not working. We own four 6.3 Megas (1 my wife, 1 daughter, 1 son, and mine).
Officially I have 2 that are not working properly and stuck on boot loop. My wife and daughter are working properly on 4.4.2 my son's now and mine are stuck in boot loop. Wife's phone has original screen and it's working properly, my daughter has a replacement screen I bought on ebay for about $160.00 on January. My son's I've replaced the screens about 3-5 times already (a ton of money wasted), and mine, recently I did replaced it on May (before the 4.4.2 update on June). Here goes the issue:
My son's phone updated today about 2 hours ago while we were visiting the AT&T store for U-Verse Quote. Did not know it updated until we got home... Sons' phone is stuck in boot loop also now!!!!!!!!!!!! What I did was I took my daughters phone apart (with expensive replacement screen and currently running 4.4.2), and installed the screen on my sons and then mine, and each phone would work flawlessly with that screen, so I took the current replacement screens I had from my phone and my son to install them on my daughter's and each one would go into boot loop.
After that, I re installed the good screen on my daughters back, and daughters work properly again. I guess the generic OEM screens from eBay I've been buying for $50 bucks are not compatible with 4.4.2 Kitkat, they are only compatible with 4.2.2 Jelly bean.
Anyone knows where I can buy original screens? I've contacted several sellers on eBay to see if the screens work on 4.4.2 because I don't want to spend more money on screens. I just got 1 from China 2 days ago, and that one also gets stuck in boot loop... so frustrated with screens. All my OT from work goes to pay for these issues... Help anyone? Anyone sells working 4.4.2 compatible screens?
Also, I will buy a broken ORIGINAL screens from ebay (like $7-$10) to test it out and verify. I will post results. Hope this experiment (and my sadness) will help you guys out if stuck in boot loop.
P.S. Oh yeah, I did do both phones on PDA, then all BL,PDA, etc... and I still get boot looped. I have to say THANK YOU to the original autheor because it does work! It's just my screens that doesn't work!!!!! HELP GUYS!!!!!:crying:
Is there a certian order u need to flash these in?

Hello,
I've purchased a Galaxy Tab S6 (SM-T865N) International version, mainly to use it with with 4G in US on Xfinity Mobile. I received the tablet, inserted the SIM card and it was working 'relatively' on the network. Every now & then I would get a message 'failed to register to network', but for the most part, mobile data is working.
Since it is a Korea version, certain things don't work. Nothing major, but I would like to make it perfect. Certain User update posts in the Galaxy store display in Korean Language, and the weather app is slightly limited, with the error 'not available outside of Korea'.
I did some searching and found other firmware available for this exact model on Sammobile. My country (US) is not supported, but I would like to try the UK firmware, if nothing else, to fix some of the language issues. I downloaded the UK firmware package and Odin (3.13 & 3.14.1). I installed the Samsung drivers. I booted the tablet into recovery by holding 'power & volume up' then connected it to the computer. Odin WILL NOT found the tablet. I rebooted into the normal OS and connected it and Odin then found it, but obviously that doesn't work. I can not get Odin to connect while in recovery.
Does anyone have suggestions on what might be happening?
And maybe all this effort isn't worth it either, hard telling whether it'll work better or worse with the UK firmware on it. Any tips?
It's been several years since I did this sort of thing, so I'm a little rusty. I thought this would be a simple procedure.
it sounds to me like you are not putting it into download / Odin mode, but I could be wrong. I haven't tried to use Odin on this tablet yet, but was actually about to do this same thing as well, as my device has an origin CSC of singapore, and hasn't had an official update in almost 2 months, so I was going to flash the UK version as well.
---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:51 PM ----------
So I just tested it on my tablet, here is what you need to do:
Power off the device
Press and hold the Volume up button and then press and hold the power button
When you see the initial boot screen, release the power button, but keep holding volume button
When you get to the recovery screen, you need to use the volume up / down buttons to highlight the option that has "bootloader" in the title, and press the power button to select it.
Then you should see a screen that says "Download" or something like that.
Plug in USB, and Odin should see the device.
Yeah, you're booting into recovery, you need to boot into Download mode - Hold both volume up and down whilst inserting the USB-C cable to enter Download mode.
Your correct

IF you mean did I succeed in flashing it through Odin then yes BUT unfortunately I couldn't get it to reboot correctly & it takes a lot of time trying to reboot but still no luck. So, I took it to a repair shop & they told me it needs new motherboard !! How can this be even possible IF I still can get it to connect to Odin and download the firmware successfully BUT no luck in getting it to reboot correctly!!

Have you tried reflashing the old firmware of your country? Weird that its not working.
I did try that and managed to flash it successfully to the old firmware using Odin but unfortunately I still couldn't get it past a full reboot as it got stuck after a long time and it takes me to the Android System Recovery screen wherein also tried to 'wipe cache partition.’ and try reboot again but I still end up with the recovery screen!

Can't you put in a warranty claim ? Here where i am based i had a new battery, and new screen installed from samsung! this was a Galaxy S8+ was well over 2 years old they did it for free! New screen and new battery! My Note 9 is going this monday for a new battery my Tab S6 works flawlessly so don't need to send that in! but i'm sure if you ring up Samsung they will replace the motherboard for free as it's not even 12 months old!
