Maybe u r not flashing correct stock firmware version. Go to android settings-about phone and tell me what it says under baseband version. Then check this thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2369125
Under links, there is link for stock unrooted firmware versions. The last 3 numbers/letters of ur baseband should match up with one of firmwares there. Odin should let u flash that one and u will have to start over rooting, custom recovery, flash CORRECT rom for ur device model, etc. . Link to rom u flashed please? Let me know
U can post questions like this in my thread for gs3 with lollipop help and troubleshooting if u like...

heres a couple threads with related issues. maybe u can learn a little more about problem. I think i know what to do, but i dont give advice unless i know for sure. Let me know if these links didnt help u figure it out.

What file did you originally flash?

[Q] Help please I can only go to download mode

Please help me, I have the gs3 tmo and wanted to root it, i followed all the guides that were for the 4.3 model. So i continued and rooted it, it told me it was successful, and i was able to get back to my phone home. But then there was the annoying KNOX security so i was able to disable it too, no prob. Then i wanted to install cm 11, and i downloaded rom manager and to install a cwm recovery which somewhat worked, because when ever i chose to restart my phone it would tell me that the su (root) was not functioning correctly. I chose yes but nothing happened and it booted back to home. So i disregarded that and continued, I later copied cm 11 to my sd and tried to install it, now i cant go home and can only go to download mode with the usb jig. whenever i try to use odin to flash the stock rom it would fail and on my phone it would give me a message SW REV CHECK FAIL: FUSED 1 > BINARY 0. I am stuck here please help me, I know a lot of the basics and can understand the steps you give me. Please dont refer me to another thread unless it has the steps the fix it.
Again thank you

[Q] Help! Fix Stuck on Boot Logo

Hello there, all xda members.
I got Ace 2 to fix from my friend. He doesnt know exactly why did the phone becoming stuck on bootlogo. Maybe messing up with flashing GB or JB. or maybe wrong terminal command.
Ace 2 Condition :
- Its unable to pass boot logo samsung galaxy ace 2
- Its unable to enter recovery mode
- Its able to enter download mode, and its custom binary download : No, Current binary : Samsung official
Here all the thing that i have tried to fix the phone :
1. Flashing the phone with Russian Gingerbread with 3 files, Pit, CSC, and PDA. But it still stuck on bootlogo and unable to enter stock recovery. it shows succeed though on Odin, but it can't boot.
2. Flashing the phone with Latest Jelly bean, with Jelly bean pit file. Odin displaying succeed, but it doesnt boot either.
Can someone help me how to solve this problem?
Is there a condition where phone completely unable to recover from hardbrick such as stuck on bootlogo, but still able to enter download mode?
I'm going to download jelly bean mb2 or mb4 which include pit and csc from jelly bean and try to reflash it. Hope it gonna work.
Thanks for any help.
Anyone here to help me?
@ChronoMonochrome , maybe you've experienced something like this and able to resolve the problem.
The phone can't boot at all. and im a little frustrated here. I've already tried a 3 parted firmware MB4, and it doesnt work either. Tried to flash chrono 4.3 cwm through odin and it doesnt work either.
And if it really doesnt have a solution, maybe i'll just give it up. And doesnt continue researching to fix this phone. Thanks
maybe another devs that able to fix this. @ace2nutzer @fluffi444 or anyone??
It got the same case. Successfull flashing, but still doesnt boot, it just like flashing is fail. or it just like it reverted the way it was before flashing. Your help is very appreciated.

Very strange. And more strange is that several people have this "only boot to logo / only downloadmode issue"
Up to now I have no Idea - I asume that ADB is not working, because of missing recovery mode? With ADB there are plenty of possibilities.
An complete Factory reset could be helpfull - But how to do it out of downloadmode ?! Don't know.
Up to now I didn't had a Phone with this behaviour for repair at home. If it would be reproducible how this all happens, I would bring my phone to this state to find out how to repair it (riff box here - so dead ACE 2 is not a problem) - But even this is unclear - Every report regarding this said only "suddenly" "without any reason" "flashed this or that" - But no exact infomation what happend acctually.
I'm out of Ideas. Sorry!
Thanks for answering.
I dont know if i have to give up already or not. But i'll try to flash it with another pc and data cable. Maybe it gonna work.

No, I haven't had the phone in such condition as described above. But I have heard that any odin-flashable file that's wrongly flashed via "Phone" entry can lead brick which is similar to this. I remember only one case - one user from 4pda has flashed some file via odin, wrongly putting file to the "phone", and wasn't able to restore it anyhow - but he also had some brick on GPIO side - vol.up worked like vol.down, and the real vol.down didn't work at all. I don't know however, what memory partitions / any devices capable of storing data would be messed after this operation, and whether it's reparable at all. I mentioned devices, that can also store data, I know only that touchscreen has small memory for its firmware(that what I had broke one day in the past after accidental firmware change in the kernel) - but maybe some other devices also has it?!
There are also some chances that it's dead flash memory - chances are pretty small, but should also be taken into account.

Rooted Phone Won't Turn on after trying to update and Recovery Won't Work!

My phone won't turn on and is stuck on loading screen after trying to download an Asus update.
I didn't mean to install the update as i knew a problem would occur. I have the 2.3ghz version of the phone with 64gb of storage with Lollipop.
When i try to go into recovery it says it is installing update for a couple seconds then it gives an error so i can't get into that.
Can someone help me and give detailed instructions on what to flash and how to flash something to my phone via ADB or something?.. The phone is also rooted obviously
I gave as much information as i can think of right now.
I greatly appreciate any help. I have looked at some threads but I don't know how or what to flash and if it even relates to my phone at all.
This is what I've looked at so far:

Thanks , Austin
try to reflash again the system.img or firmware and use this for rooting make more easy https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B936USMlQhtKbmZLZDE3N1JMazA/view
Thanks for the fast response . But how may i flash this to my phone? And is that toolbox for the zenfone 2?
Nevermind i figured out how to flash the image and that type of stuff.. But idk what image i should flash. I go to the Asus website and find the latest version which is 2.20.40 but on the XDA post it has like 2.13.10 or the lower versions.
Would it be ok to flash any system image to it? Mine has 2.19.40.22 on it right now when i checked in recovery. ( Which i got working , It was giving an error)
Thanks
Hmmm
Trying to flash the firmware to the phone and in adb it says it cannot read the firmware. I literally copy and paste and try almost everything and it says it cannot read it still. I don't know what to do if anyone can please help.. Been stuck without a phone for days :/
I typed adb sideload UL-Z00A-WW-2.19.40.22-user.zip and it will not read it or do anything.

HELP! I think i might of broken my S9

get frija's firmware download tool
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9/how-to/tool-frija-samsung-firmware-downloader-t3910584
go to sammobile.com/firmwares and find the version you need for your phone then enter the necessary info into Frija's tool and download the zip you need. Unzip the contents into a folder that you can easily find, then go get the most recent version of odin (3.13.1 https://odindownload.com/SamsungOdin/ ) and retry.
I was trying to flash a new firmware version on an A8 yesterday and it got stuck because i was using Odin 3.10.1 instead of the new one.
Hope this helps
