[SM-T705Y] Softbrick, no OS HELP! Can't find stock firmware - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Issue
I accidentally wiped the system partition on my rooted galaxy tab s and obviously it won't boot. I know I need to push my stock firmware and flash it to fix this issue however sammobile won't work for me as a free member (video won't load to allow me to download)
Help
Is there any other sites you guys can recommend to download the stock firmware or any way to get sammobile site to work.
Thanks.

Need Stock Firmware/ROM for Glaxy S4 SGH-M919V (Videotron)

Hi I installed SwapSD on my sgh-m919v Galaxy S4 from Videotron but it totally screwed up my phone.. Now I get ''mtp has stopped'' ''settings has stopped'' and ''android.process.media has stopped'' each time I start the phone. I've been looking for the stock rom for my specific model (SGH-M919V) for hours but can't find it anywhere. I tried using SGH-M919 stock rom but it won't work even if I strictly follow the guide, ODIN tells me FAIL!! (Auth).. Could someone upload the stock rom for that specific model somewhere and give me the link please ?
I attached a screen capture from odin to show you what problem i get
Thank you

Not sure if you got what you needed but you can take the phone back to stock using Samsung Kies, just plug the phone in download mode select "tools" then "Firmware upgrade and initialization", input your phones info and off you go..
if you could also grab the rom downloaded by Kies and uploaded for us that'd be cool.

Unfortunately reverting back to stock with Kies has not worked for me either with that method.
Hopefully the stock firmware for this carrier will drop soon!

I too would like the stock firmware for this device before I start tinkering with it.
I am surprised however that odin fails while flashing the sgh-m919 firmware. I thought these devices were essentially the same.
Have you fixed your phone yet, and how so?
+1
I've soft bricked my phone and would really appreciate a stock m919V firmware. I've installed a bad kernel and/or rom and even the partitions are all screwed up. Nothing to do without a m919v odin flashable image.
Anybody?

Sent in a request to samfirmware.com & samsung-updates.com to post the firmware. Hoping that they consider the request.
Maybe you could do the same? I'm not asking to spam them, but I suppose it'll have an impact if there's more than 1 person requesting the firmware.

So, in my last post, I had mentioned that I had contacted samfirmware.com to post the stock firmware. They've responded to my request and already uploaded the firmware!

Good luck flashing it back to stock and reviving your S4.
Awesome. I'm downloading right not, but since I'm not a paid member on hotfile I'll only know in an hour if it works. I'll keep everybody posted, hopefully I'll be able to flash it with odin.
I'm also wondering what the no-name firmware on sammobile is. They posted the videotron, wind, and mobilcity firmwares. Is the no-name one unbranded? We'll have to wait and see.
So I downloaded the videotron firmware and it worked. Everything is back.
I'll try the unbranded version to see what it does.
Did you install the stock firmware using the stock recovery?

Glad to hear it, keep us posted if you flash that unbranded firmware. Hoping it frees up some internal storage.

I believe he would have flashed the stock firmware using Odin for Windows. At least that's how it is normally done.
I just downloaded the videotron firmware from the website, I didn't flash the recovery. It's .md5 format, so I've flashed it with Odin. The phone was on CWM recovery, but it doesn't really matter as the firmware flashes the stock recovery too.
So I just flashed the videotron image in odin, phone rebooted and everything is fine, I'm back to stock, including no root and stock recovery. The only thing that's still there is the fact that phone is unlocked. (I've used the method described in the forum to unlock it).
As for the other firmware, it has _ESK in the name. I'm 99.9999% sure it's Eastlink firmware, another mobile carrier in Canada. The other ones had _VTR and so on in their name.
thanks for the info
Hotfile is down
I'm looking for a factory image of any of the MDJ builds.... Hotfile is down so I can't get it... does anybody have a copy that they would be willing to upload for me.... I need it so I can reset and sell this phone ASAP to get christmas money. Thanks

Help Soft Brick and cant find files needed

I was on the omni rom and decided to change my recovery when this happened.
It wouldnt boot past the samsung screen. I cannot get into recovery but I can get into download mode.
I know one possible fix is flashing the stock image through Odin but I cannot find the stock images. All the links are dead.
Anything will help.
Also if there is anybody willing to walk me through this real time, feel free to message me and we can chat on google hangouts.

What recovery are you using ?
Since you can get in to recovery, did you try restoring any of your previous backups ?
Are you already on 4,3 bootloader ?
You can download thr stock 4.3 firmware from here : http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SGH-T889&pcode=0
You will need an account on sammobile though.

How did you flash T889UVALL4 ?
Most likely your phone is on a newer(4.3) bootloader and flashing an older bootloader caused the boot loop.
I am very certain that flashing 4.3 stock image will resolve this problem.

That might be it, since I was on 4.4.2 before. Do you know if there are better hosting sites for the download file because the ones on that site take 6 hours to download.

mluciano has uploaded the Stock Rooted ROM(Mr Robinsons) image on his dropbox, if you want stock rooted you can download it from here.
Not sure how fast this download would be.

Boot loop after Factory Wipe - P600

Hi All,
I was running CleanRom and I did a factory wipe from the Backup & Restore menu. I am now stuck in a boot loop. All I can do is get into download mode (ODIN i'm guessing)
I cannot get the original firmware here - none of these work
http://samsung-updates.com/details/18412/Galaxy_Note_10.1_2014_Wi-Fi/SM-P600/XAR/P600UEUBMK1.html
Can anyone point me in the direction of the original P600 firmware or another firmware that I can install through ODIN?
Thanks
Found it at google docs

Take a look at sammobile.

You can't get into Recovery Mode? If you can, often clearing the Dalvik cache can solve bootloop issues.
Hey I'm stuck in odin download after trying to install a recovery could i just go into odin and install stock firmware and start over?

Scott's rom is very old and outdated. I would use a newer one like hyper drive rom. I'll try to find a stock one for u to flash. It's somewhere in forums in gdrive.

Getting My Tablet Back to Stock Firmware [SM-T800]

Hello XDA,
I am looking to update my Tab S to Lollipop. Problem is, I rooted it almost a year ago and do not know the method in which I did it. I'm guessing without knowing any other information, my best best bet would be downloading 5.0.2 from Sammobile (currently doing so) and using Odin 3.09? Is this the easiest way?
Also, if I'm located in the USA, what region do I want to use for the download? I didn't see anything that applied to me, so I picked an unknown region. Is there something else I should be looking for?
Android Version
4.4.2
Kernel Version
3.4.39-2947015

The quickest way would be to use Samsung Kies. The download is quicker but it installs immediately so you don't get to keep the download.
EDIT: Also the US region is called Cellular South.

Is that what Smart Switch Mobile is? Do you happen to have a link for a short guide? And will I still need to download the stock firmware when using Kies?
And thanks for clearing up the region question.
http://www.samsung.com/in/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/#none
Use the link to download Kies, install, connect tablet to pc and open Kies. From there you'll know what to do. No guide necessary. No need to download the firmware either. Kies is automated once you select upgrade.
EDIT: There are two versions of Kies. Grab Kies3.
Sent from my SM-T700 using Tapatalk
Thank you! You were right, Kies3 immediately recognized that I did not have the latest firmware. So now I'm waiting for the update to download and implement itself.
I am in the exact same situation as you.
Not able to take the OTA even if i undo root via supersu
Kies detected that there was an update. But BEEN HOURS with "Preparing software update components for Galaxy Tab S"
I closed it and I am trying with Smart Switch .. same .. been 1 hour now and nothing happens.
How could I flash the latest firmware? Thanks

You may want to check with other sources, but my initial thought before getting a response here was to download the current firmware build and use the Odin tool. I'm assuming it would work for you.

I have downloaded the stock ROM from some Russian web site which then directed me to some Google drive, a 1.6GB download, in my case SEE-T805XXU1BOD1-20150511102748.zip
I then used Odin to flash it - Select BL for "T805XXU1BOG2_bootloader.tar.md5" (stock bootloader) and AP for "T805XXU1BOD1_T805OXX1BOD1_T805XXU1BOD3_HOME.tar.md5" (stock ROM)
I believe that the above procedure works under almost all circumstances, root or no.
I then made plenty of backups with TWRP so that I do not have to use Odin anymore, I simply restore the stock ROM from backup (plus I get all my applications and system as I want it rather than having to re-do everything from scratch each time).
And just to say that all the OSes I have downloaded so far, they all had problems, so I end up restoring the stock ROM within hours of installing a new OS.

S9 crashes if it goes into locked screen [ROOTED]

Hey Community,
Im new here and got a big problem with my s9.
I rooted it today with magisk, just recovered my backup.
Then i noticed that always when the phone is looking to locked screen it just crash and i cant start it (only with Volume up + Bixby + Power Button and then there choose the reboot function)
Would be great if someone know the reason why this happens.
Regards

Probably something to do with restoring your backup
No talk about lucky patcher on XDA as it is classed as Warez

You rooted your phone without knowing how to flash stock back?
Download the stock firmware, extract it, add all 4 sections to ODIN 3.13.1, do not use HOME_CSC, use CSC instead, put phone in download mode, flash

Have you found a Fix to this? What software did you use for rooting? Did you install a custom recovery?
For me this exact thing happens with TWRP and magisk. On the TWRP Thread jesec pointed out that rooting without flashing a custom kernel will most likely cause issues.
Was hoping you may have found a solution
