DOES or DOES NOT ?
If possible, than try(AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!) to flash CWM(ClockWorkMod) via ODIN and than (do a backup before that!!!) do a full wipe. After that is done, enter Download mode and flash again.

As already suspected, this is probably a defect of mainboard. You will have to send it to Samsung Service Point. This could still be a warranty case, but from here on only Samsung can help you.

Can you enter into cwm recovery mode. If you can then I don't think there s way. Coz it'll show you tat you've rooted ur phone. If you can't then go to service center and pretend to them that you haven't even heard the word root in your whole life. Tel them that you just tried to update thru kies nd it got bricked. No other way my friend.

Note- your phone shd be within warranty period. Then it'll be replaced. I haven't done tis. But, heard from guys who did it.

What I see is that she's not having problem with bricking phone, so.. no need imo..
She just need to reflash... I believe she got wrong package when flashing? Like broken package.
Try checking http://www.samfirmware.com/
get a stock rom of your country / other, and reflash it with correct settings...
That should do it

Hi Irish..
Sorry for late response
I'm not going to get everybody afraid but want to make them AWARE
Basically i wanna explain more about the "BRICKING"
There are soft brick and hard brick
SOFT BRICK
Soft brick cause by bad installation :
Corrupted file
Bad flashing way
Power off while flashing
Soft brick will cause the phone wont load the OS, the characteristic are
After booting, couldn't load OS after the logo shown and keep the screen blank
After booting and get into OS, suddenly system crash and reboot
You can go thru reboot mode and download mode
This issue can be fixed by re-flashing your phone
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
HARD BRICK
Hard brick cause by:
Broken Hardware
Very-very wrong way of flashing
What really cause this ?
It's the damaged "ADB Interference Driver" that caused the device cannot give any command to system. In example your device wont reboot after flashing although ODIN has sent reboot command
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The characteristic are:
If your hardware damaged, your system will crash all over the time meanwhile you already re-flash but it cannot fixed
Your device have a boot loop and unable to go to recovery mode
Hah.. very wrong way flashing ?
Some device (Galaxy Ace & Galaxy 3 Apollo) have firmware that included with automatically system/data/cache format. They will not experience* this hard brick because the firmware doing cleaning before flashing
Sometime user not aware of this
They just go right away then flashing, this can cause hard brick
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How about Wonder ?
No, wonder firmware not included this command so you must clean data/system/cache first
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How to fix this hard brick ?
Until now i didn't get any way to fix it, because it linked to damaged "ADB Interference Driver" so you cannot use any command in your device
It this happen you should go to Samsung Service Center
How to Flash Correctly (Custom ROM)
Make a full back up of your device & apps
Do full wipe on data/system/cache
Flash your latest stock ROM
Get Root access & CWM Recovery
Download your ROM correctly make sure not get corrupted
Make sure to copy it to primary SD card (no need to swap)
Make sure you have 85-100 battery or in charged with 85-100 power available

I hope it help

Yes, if the uploader publises a MD5 checksum. Than you, as downloader, will be able to check the MD5 checksum of the downloaded file.
If not available I think all you can do to minimize the chance of not getting a corrupted file is by checking the size of the downloaded files and the one which is displayed at the filehoster. Other option would be to download the file twice and compare the MD5 checksum of the both files. if they are same everything is fine, if not ...

I learned Cryptography System before. I know the function of Md5 check sum. It is a "digest" of host file. BUT it can only check the integrity of the file. If the original file has already corrupted before making its md5, u won't know anyway.

Is it the Android boot screen (i.e. Samsung/Cyanogenmod) or the Bootloader screen, that shows up first thing no matter which ROM you have?

I started with the stock rom, and i didn't be able to install new roms because at the first flash for root permission with odin, my phone restart with the loop. and the new files i flashed with odin gave me the same loop.

now, i think that the only solution is reset all. where is the right link? active link!

Yup

I think so too. Try using a three part firmware, I can't just provide the .pit because you'll need the modem file too.
Try using a three part firmware if a single file one doesn't work
Odin Single File = i8160XXXXX.tar.md5 which goes in PDA
Odin Three part = Modem, PDA and PIT (This repartitions your device back to factory so you'll lose all data and partition changes you've made!!))
--Bhavesh

yes,this is a good idea..but where i can find the three files for back to factory ?

The XXMF1 firmwares might have all three files. I don't know but from what I can collect it seems to be the most likely. The test XXMC8 and MB4 firmwares also contain three files, but, they're test firmwares, so I wouldn't recommend it - and you should flash stable firmware afterwards (after the phone reboots and you see the 'PASS' message on the computer and the phone has started to boot)
Good luck!

i'm very stupid... the only problem was battery low.. tnx anyway!

No problem! Try not to flash if you have less than 70% or so battery left as a general rule

Help Galaxy Watch

Hello everybody
My watch doesn't work. It was suddenly one day, when I woke up and tried to switch on, and I don't know why.
I tried to flash again with odin in wireless mode and apparently it must work because the program show me it has been with success but when I tried to switch on, the watch shows "Samsung" and after a while, it switch off automatically. I did it in several times and the result always is the same, even the watch doesn't charge.
Can anyone help me to fix it, please?
The watch is a R800 (46 mm) model
Thanks in advance

1.
Are you still able to enter Download Wireless?
In theory you can check here also Battery... in %
And also you could charge in this Mode...
2.
You flashed Firmware...
Filename? Or is this info Top Secret...
So I can see which Version you have tried...
3.
Can you check infos in Odin screen... This is the Download Mode... Example:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73607036&postcount=1
Can you post Photo of your screen... or write ALL Informations as text?
4.
If Battery full and no success with Stock Firmware... still no idea if you maybe used old outdated or wrong files...
You could flash Combination Firmware... to see if device after successfully flash boot proper and start...
So first check would be... if BT address is available...
If you can not find... check Serial Number too... maybe something happens to CSA Security partition/folder...
Best Regards

1. Yes, but when I put it in the wireless charge, the watch doesn´t do anything, the led in the charge starts to flash and doesn't charge
2. Of course it is not, I use one that one coleage put in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sm...re-netodin-t3895010/post78800094#post78800094
I t was upload by Huey85 (sorry but I can't attach it becasue I am working and my net cannot allow it).
3. I cannot attach any image because I am working now but I think there is no important thing in the screen. I can flash it without any problem and Odin says all is correct when it finish but after that the watch still doesn´t work (if you need any image of the screen, please tell me and I will upload tomorrow).
4. How can I check the BT address? becasue the phone doesn't recognize.
Thank you for your answer.

Combination Firmware for SM-R800 is for instance here:

Sorry but I don' understand well what you mean with combination firmware. Do you mean that it's not the opcion I have to do? Because I see do you sent the links to other files with the extension md5 but I don't see the opcion in the Odin program to choose these kind of files.
Thnaks again for your interest.

My English is bad... but my German is much better.
You can write PM to me in German...
B
I "wish" I could see my request about Odin screen...
As I have NO Crystal Ball...
In this Screen are usefull good infos...

Maybe I spend little bit time to search Video or Screenshots about Combination Firmware...
Seems "Mission Impossible"...
Please give full details...

S9 stuck on Tmobile/Samsung logo screen

I bought my brother an unlocked G960U1 last year and loaded tmobile firmware. He was using is without any problems till November last year. He went to Poland and was using Orange service. One morning the phone got stuck on Tmobile logo. I got the phone this week and loaded original U1 firmware using ODIN but the phone still gets stuck on SAMSUNG logo this time. I also tried Tmobile/Verizon firmwares but both got stuck on the logo screen. I did factory reset and cleared cache but that didn't help. Any help would be appreciated.

It should work on all of them. Might need the latest modded version of Odin. I'm kinda new to the s9 and + setups. So I don't know all the exacts yet. But from previous models it's universal.

secure check fail should be followed by more information as to why. please copy and paste the entire error log of Odin in the thread or a screenshot (paint makes it stupid easy to do) or if you have an alternate working phone, you can take a pic of the phone screen while the error is showing in download mode

The systems are incremented I believe now so if he's flashing an older system it will throw fail error on system partition. Sammys way of blocking the old root method from s8

That's peculiar as Odin/download mode is usually achieved by pwr+Vol dwn+home button.
Anyway, as you can get into that mode, I'd use SamFirm_Reborn_0.3.6.3 to download stock ROM from Samsungs servers (checking boxes "binary nature" +decryption) and flash the 4 files contained in the .zip via Odin.
It's P600 isn't it?
