I did the Android 4.3 upgrade to my Galaxy S3 and now I can't not flash anything on my phone.
In ODIN Mode displays the following:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME:SGH-T999
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: YESS (4 COUNT)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Warranty Bit: 1
BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 1
It seems that my bootloader is in lock mode
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks
So you try to root you're device 4 times !!! I got the solution on my sgh-t999, but I don't know if it's working on yours and I have no guarantee.
So how I solve this problem :
1. I'd installed TWRP via ODIN from HERE
2. I have an old backup(4.1.2 - T999UVDMD5, rooted) maked with TWRP
3. After install TWRP (worked for me), I deleted all internal storage from device from TWRP menu WIPE -- Advanced
4. I restored from old backup, and that's it. But again I'm not ofer you any guarantee.
Then you can reset your count from 4 to 0, but Warranty Bit and BOOTLOADER AP SWREV count will stay to 1.
Sounds like your eFuse may be blown. If that's not the case, then you might be able to proceed.
Try flashing Recovery as mentioned. Then flash SuperSU from Chainfire's thread.
If you took the 4.3 update, then you are stuck with 4.3 firmware. You can still flash recovrry and roms though.
If you want to remain on 4.3, I suggest flashing my rom in development.
If you just root as ut is now you will have alk sorts of troubke from knox.

Stuck
Hello. I really need help. I followed the steps from this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840030 but I’m still stuck. First I had my Verizon Samsung GS3 rooted with 4.1.2. Everything was working just fine. The update 4.3 came out and I used Voodoo to keep my root on my phone. When the phone rebooted my root was gone but the superuser was still installed for some reason but I wasn’t able to use it. I went to root back to 4.1.2 and after ODIN was done and it said it “Passed”, when the phone boots I get the message: "System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone... Please turn off phone and to Verizon Wireless store for help". I rebooted the phone in download mode again then selected cancel like some other people have done with the same problem but I get the same message. When I try to flash the “VRALEC bootchain” it gets to the part when it says: "NAND Write Start! Then it says FAIL! (Auth) All threads completed. (Succeeded 0 / failed 1). On the phone screen it says:”SW REV CHECK FAIL: Fused 1.Binary 0”. I tried the second bootloader that I downloaded the file named: BOOTLOADER_I535VRALF2_618049_REV09_user_low_ship.tar.md5”. It also fails. I used the md5 file checker to make sure the all the md5 files were good and they all passed with the correct signatures. No luck trying to flash the bootchains. I then tried to flash the “stock.vzw_root66.tar” with the “Auto reboot, F. Reset time and NAN erase all” selected. It goes through the whole cycle and it even says on the phone in blue: “ERASING USERDATA PARTITION”. The flash on Odin completes with no problems, but when the phone auto reboots, once again I get the: "System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone... Please turn off phone and to Verizon Wireless store for help”. I rebooted the phone in recovery mode. I did the “wipe data/factory reset” and “wipe cache partition” then reboot the phone again. Once again I get the: "System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone... Please turn off phone and to Verizon Wireless store for help". I also tried Hero’s bootloader unlock using “Root.66” and the pit file: “sch-i535-16gb.pit” except the part of updating the VRALHD baseband since I can’t even flash CWM. It passes but when it boots still get the "System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone... Please turn off phone and to Verizon Wireless store for help” message again. I’ve tried flashing CWM and when it goes into the”NAND Write Start!!” It shows “FAIL! (Auth)”. I get the same error trying to flash TWRP. Even flashing the stock ROM 4.1.2 I get the "System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone... Please turn off phone and to Verizon Wireless store for help”. I’ve tried to install .zip files from the “apply update from external storage” but then it gets as far as “Verifying update package… and then it goes into “E: signature verification failed. Installation aborted”. I tried h311sdr0id’s method flashing “BOOTLOADER_I535VRALF2_618049_REV09_user_low_ship.tar.md5” and it also fails. I am using the USB cord that came with the phone. I’m running Windows 8.1 but also tried using Windows 7. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
You can't downgrade to 4.1.2 with Odin once you've done the 4.3 official update.. Try flashing 4.3 in Odin

factory reset then use odin to root and you will get a supersu unfortunately stopped after boot.......then download supersu.app and put on root of hdd then manually intall this will update and u should be able to disable knox at this point........then go download the odin mobile app from market load your stock 4.1.2 with keys .tar file and flash using odin mobile this should get u back to official 4.1.2 im working on the bootloader now its still locked but... now that I don't have knox it shouldn't be a problem

Are you certain you are trying to flash the correct firmware? I believe you'd need to be using the MJB firmware, but that's just a guess based on the software revision shown.
After booting into download mode, but before connecting to the computer, are you removing the debrick sdcard?

help me s3 t999 can't flash with odin or recovery, root missing problem.
So I rooted my s3 t999 so I could get cyaneginemod. I used the flashing rom way, and it didn't work,(i used twerp recovery) it kept saying failed, and then I went to the easier way of installing the rom with, the new cyaneinge mod app, (I'm still rooted). Then after waiting for it too finish my phone rebooted, but cyaneinge was not on it, instead it came with a page that said root missing I clicked on yes fix the missing root, n well nothing happens I was back on touchwiz, superuser was their but Samsung Knox kept it from doing anything but I used supersu to disable it. I thought that knox was keeping the cyaneinge mod app from working, so I decided to downgrade to 4.1 when knox didn't exist, bless that time, but I couldn't since odin kept failing at flashing a stock rom, I did this soo msoon times I went through every firm ware n back to 4.3, it kept failing, im pretty sure its boot locked, but the root is also limited, every time I reboot n go to recovery n leave it asked me if it should fix the missing root, but yes or no, it wont change, n every time I reboot it says optimizing apps 0 of 48, it takes at least 5 min to go through. N after going through every forum, YouTube video, asking friends, I still can't find a solution, n im stuck on a screwd up root version of 4.3 plz help
Please only post your question once. There is no benefit to multiple posts.

this may be crazy AND wrong. but can you put ext. sd card in another phone, download a ROM and whatever else you need. then put the ext.sd back in your phone and flash ?
i prob. got your problem wrong, but just an idea. :banghead:
err on the side of kindness
I have the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini Duos - GT-I9192 phone.
Last week I was updating the phone via a OTA update and the phone suddenly stopped updating mid-way, restarting the phone got the phone to start but stuck on the initial Samsung logo and not beyond. Eventually after several retries, phone would only vibrate and nothing displayed on the screen. I can not even get into recovery mode.
I am now able to get into Download mode only with the following information displayed
ODIN MODE
Product Name: GT- I9192
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x30
BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 2
Write Protection: Enable
Over the past one week I have tried the following with no success
1) Downloaded the official firmware for my device/region from Sammobile and tried loading via ODIN (3.10 and 3.07), after waiting for an hour (On Initialization status) or so ODIN terminates with a Fail message and a error mentioning " No Partition Detected/ PIT File missing
2) I have tried with a PIT file (attached) but it does not proceed beyond Initialization status on ODIN either
3) Tried the same thing with CWM file and Auto Root files for the GT-I9192 but does not move beyond Initialisation and/ or Setup Connection step in Odin
I have now tried on Multiple computers, with different cables and USB ports, even tried connecting to Kies to see if a firmware can be loaded that way, but no luck.
Would appreciate any suggestions / help on what else I must try or do differently. Please help.
That pit is for serranolte your device is serranodsd now search for the apropiate pit file.
First try installing latest firmware without pit
If don't work try with apropiate pit
still doesnt work
Thanks fburgos I found a PIT file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53003227&postcount=4 (attached)
and another one shared by SilviuMik at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620621&page=2
But Odin still stuck at Initialization for both (attached screenshot)
I have tried the Odin option with Nand Erase checked as well but Odin doesnt proceed beyond Initialization.
Of course the stock rom doesnt install either via odin - I9192DDUCNL1_I9192ODDCNH1_I9192DDUCNL1_HOME.tar.md5
Same issue - stuck at Initialization.. fails after a long time.. with missing PIT file message.
Any other ideas?
Use both pit and firmware, in the same process
tried that as well, same issue with ODIN, stuck at Initializing
Do you have any progress? I have the same issue on my GT-I9192 . Odin has stuck in initializing.
No luck.. phone is still "bricked"
Let me know if you find a solution please.

I have a Note 8.0 that is stuck in a boot loop. It get to the initial screen. "Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 GT-N5110" and then screen goes blank and it starts over again. Never goes past this screen. I have flashed a stock rom (\N5110UEU2COI3_N5110XAR2COI3_HOME.tar.md5) using odin. Odin gives me a pass when it is finished but the issue persists.
Any help with this is appreciated.
Re-flash the stock ROM but, before booting for the first time, boot into stock recovery and do a full wipe. This may help get out of the bootloop.
audit13, thanks for the suggestion. I tried 3 times with no success. I did see the android with his belly door opened and the blue box spinning. Didn't see that before. However when I boot into recovery the android's belly door has a red triangle in it. A full wipe/reset has no effect and the symptoms persist.
Any other thoughts? Thanks again
I recommend trying again with Odin 3.07.
In Odin, uncheck everything except f.reset time. Connect the tablet in download mode, flash the tar.md5 file in PDA. When you see the word "Reset" in the status window, remove USB cable, press and hold the power button to power off the unit. After the unit is off, use the key combination to boot immediately into recovery and perform a factory wipe/reset. If that doesn't work, you may need to flash the ROM in combination with a pit file.
audit13, tried your instructions and still ended up with the same issue. I used odin3 v3.07. Can you point me to the pit file you referred to in your previous post.
I have this file - BL_N5110UEU2CNE2_1498778_REV01_user_low_ship.tar.md5
and this - CSC_XAR_N5110XAR2CNE2_1498778_REV01_user_low_ship.tar.md5
Are they of any use to me in this situation?
Thanks again for taking an interest in my problem, Keith
Did you download the stock ROM from sammobile? If you did, you should unzip the file once which gives you a tar.md5 file. It is this tar.md5 that is flashed in the PDA section of Odin 3.07.
SamMobile has many countries listed but not USA. Do I use Cellular South? The file I have been trying was not from SamMobile.
When you boot into download mode, does it give you the model #? Do you see anything about Knox or warranty bit in download mode?
The firmware named in the original post looks like it matches Cellular South.
I'm not sure if the 5110 was sold in the USA. If your model is wifi only, another country may work. If it's celluar, different countries use different frequencies which means cross flashing may work but connectivity (wifi and cellular) may not work.
Download mode shows this:
Odin mode (in red)
Product name: GT-N5110
Current binary: Samsung Official
System status: Custom
Knox Warranty Void: 0

It's strange that you were able to flash a stock ROM but the system status is "custom".
I suggest trying to flash an entire ROM from sammobile.com similar to the BL and CSC you flashed earlier. It may be simplet to install a custom recovery and flash a custom ROM so you can at least confirm the baseband and bootloader currently installed.
I'll give a custom recovery and rom a try tonight after work. TWRP and any stable build correct?
As for those two separate files, I didn't try anything with them. I downloaded them in case I needed to use them.
This is a board that I got off eBay for $5 and I don't know it's history. Could this issue be hardware related? The board looks good with no signs of corrosion (water damage) of hot spots (electrical surge).
It seems as though it can't find the os on boot.
Thanks again.
Did the board ever boot or was it stuck in a bootloop from the beginning? How did you know which bootloader to flash?
The board has never booted. The only files I have flashed are the one in my first post and the one from SamMobile (Cellular South) as per your instructions. These two files appear to be one in the same. Both files when flashed produced the same result, boot loop.
Do the files contain a boot loader? It sure feels like that is where the problem lies.
Success! Flashed TWRP and then installed SlimKat 4.4.4 and all is working. Need to get gapps installed but for now this board is good.
audit13, thanks again for you interest in my issue.
Hi,
I am facing boot loop issue on my N7100 from the time since I updated software.
My Note II motherboard went dead a long time ago so I thought to buy a new motherboard(International Version) from China which I received yesterday. I was able to install the board successfully, phone started working in normal condition, I was really Happy. Very soon, new software update popups started appearing which I decided to install one by one. Initial were some patches, then a big update came for around 800Mb which was for addition of KNOX and other features. The download was completed successfully & and I tried to Install it.
After the installation my phone went into boot loop. The Samsung logo comes and disappears and the cycle goes on.
> I am not able to get phone in recovery mode ( Vol Up+Home+Power).
> Yes, I am able to get phone in download mode (Vol Down+Home+Power).
Following is the status in download mode:
Product Name: GT-N7100
Custom Binary Download: No
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
Knox Warranty Void: 0
AP SWREV: A2
I did try to re-install ROM using ODIN but failed.
ROM Link : https://www.needrom.com/server/download.php?name=/2017/09/KSA-N7100XXUFNL1-20150518112800.zip
Currently,
a) I don't know the details of motherboard ( S/N, Country Origin, PDA Number, CSC Number ).
b) Developer options were not enabled while phone was in working condition.
c) Tried my best to restore ROM but failed.
I need support to make this phone functional again. I need to know whether the board has gone faulty or can be repaired using software stuff?
Earliest response will be highly appreciated.
Thankyou so much!
Regards
Nikhil
Did you try to flash any non-Samsung software via Odin? I ask because I see the word "custom" in download mode.
What happens when you try to boot into recovery? What happens when you try to flash a stock ROM?
Try flashing a stock recovery from sammobile.com or updato.com.
Let me get you up to speed: From the latest update on the official marshmallow firmware (SM-N910P is my version), I rooted it using odin, then put the wrong version of TWRP on by accident (tbltespr = Note 4 Edge) but then put the right one on (trltespr) but as with everybody else that did this, I got stuck with that horrible screen offset. The *#2663# seemed to ve work until I reboot, so I put LineageOS (14.1 unofficial)(I had already been considering doing this before the incident) thinking it would fix it but all it did was make things worse. I am not stuck in a boot loop, even after all the crap I have tried, I can still flash LineageOS and yes, I can use my S Pen but there are a lot of things I use very often that it won't work with.
Now, on to what I have tried: EVERYTHING! The biggest problem to come out of putting LineageOS on there is that I can no longer downgrade (possibly not at all with any method) using ODIN. I have tried lots and lots of firmware, bootloaders, etc and everytime I get the same error (except for twrp, which I can flash):
SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot]Fused 5 > Binary 4
[1] eMMC write fail: ABOOT
So it seems using Odin is out of the question, I have tried downloading thing for custom 6.01 roms that either requires something to be flashed using Odin first, have a link that goes to a 404 page, or is not for my version. I have attempted multiple times to use Kies but it keeps rejecting my serial number. Under the battery, I only find the Hex and Dec, I have tried every number I can find on the box, in the battery, add a 1 or 0 there, shorten it here. I even got some serial number apps downloaded to confirm my serial number but still, nothing worked, so it seems Kies is out of the question as well.
Because I have come across nothing else, I can't confirm if TWRP will work or not so that is my best bet.
So here is what I have come to ask, I need a stock rom, whatever version (since I can just use the update later) that is TWRP flashable, let me repeat, TWRP flashable, no tar or md5 Odin files, TWRP! Thank you for anyone and everyone that help me. I apologize if I am breaking any forum rules, this is my first and most likely last post here.
Extra Tidbit of Info
Also, if this helps at all, this is what my Download Mode screen says when idle/(before I try to flash to it)

Here is an idea, if someone out there could kindly do it for me. Make a TWRP backup image of a factory reset stock rom and share it on google or something. then I should just be able to flash the image, right?
I have a problem on note4 sprint. after install custom rom linkage 15 unofficial naughat, i want to restore to stock rom using odin3 but why always fail. but that is the last stock rom I use.
