I tried this one here with NetOdin https://www.full-repair-firmware.com/p/watch-sm-r800.html (NetOdin passed but watch said Download fail)
Can anyone provide a link or thread with the firmware, I didnt find one myself

A while ago I rooted a Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos (GT-I9082) and installed the CWM touch bootloader. I intended to install Cyanogen Mod on it, but couldn't find the right radio, so I kept the stock firmware.
Now I have a potential warranty issue, so I'd like to try to revert everything. Since it's still running stock, I only need to remove CWM.
I found @bhsiddharth's guide to unrooting, but of course I need to get hold of the original bootloader.
The phone reports that its baseband version is I9082XXAMA9, and I'm in Australia. I haven't been able to find this bootloader anywhere, including these forums.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to find it?
More information: *#1234# shows:
AP: I9082XXAMAE
CP: I9082XXAMA9
CSC: I9082OJVMA2
So I think I've found the answer — any firmware that matches those numbers will do. Specifically, if you search the SamMobile firmwares for "I9082XXAMAE", anything matching a PDA of "I9082XXAMAE" and a CSC of "I9082OJVAMA2" should work. Once you download and extract them, they seem to be the same.
Don't take this as expert testimony though. I could be wrong
Hello guys,
Previously I have rooted my S4mini with the advices given from this forum.
However, I am going to pass my phone over to my sister.
Do i have to unroot the phone first before reformatting it? I remember my software ended with ML4 previously.Doesn't matter if the warranty is voided. I just want it to look like its new from a shop.
I am not very sure of the process of unrooting. I have read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2521928 guide but the software I'm unsure which I should download or what I should do. I reside in Singapore.
I have found this website that has the firmwares but im unsure which to download. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Can anyone please offer me some advice? Thanks !
I heard you can unroot via kies?
How does that work.
I cant seem to find the stock firmwares i need to dl.
Thanks!

U can`t unroot via Kies. From which country are u ?
Just go on sammobile and download the latest version of firmware avaible for your country, flash it with Odin and then factory reset your phone. It will be good as new
I have found it thanks.
I am unsure about the flashing part..
Trying the guide in the link above..
They told me to download either kies or drivers. But the drivers may be too old when i clicked the link
I want to flash the factory unlocked firmware. As I understand it, this means I need to flash the SM-N975U1 XAA firmware. I'd also like to have the stock VZW firmware in case I want to revert to it, and as I understand it this would be the SM-N975U VZW firmware.
PHONE INFO
- Tmo carrier unlocked, with verizon sim (and therefore verizon bloat apps)
- Software up to date, with Feb 1 patch level
- Build Number QP1A.190711.020.N975USQS2BTA7
- See pics here for more About Phone details
FIRST ISSUE:
- You'll notice if you search SamFirm with Model SM-N975U and Region VZW, it doesn't find anything. It gives this error.
Error: Could not send BinaryInform. Status code 200/666
Could not fetch info for SM-N975U/VZW. Please verify the input or use manual info
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- Same if you search with Model SM-N975U and Region XAA
- It DOES give results for both regions if you change the model to SM-N975U1. However, the file it downloads for in both cases is absolutely identical from the filename all the way down to the byte size. Filename: SM-N975U1_10_20200118102941_hj8esiossq_fac. And in any case, this doesn't give me a stock firmware to revert back to.
SECOND ISSUE
- When I try to flash the XAA files in Odin I get
<ID:0/006> FAIL! SHA256 is invalid
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- I understand this is potentially resolvable with a patched Odin, but I'm hesitant to jump right into that given that I'm not totally clear on why Odin isn't finding firmwares and why the ones it DOES find are literally 100% identical despite one being for VZW and one being for XAA.
Any thoughts on where to go from here? Am I doing something wrong? I spent several hours reviewing tens of pages of threads here and in various google searches, and watching a few videos, but nobody's perfect. Thank you guys for any help here!
Updates:
1. With no responses, I tried Frija and it was able to find the SM-N975U VZW firmware and the SM-N975U1 VZW and XAA firmwares.
2. Still, the SM-N975U1 VZW and XAA firmwares are identical, so I just tried to flash the XAA one.
3. I encountered every single complication imaginable:
- Problem: SHA256 error
- Solution: Odin Patched from here, unfortunately it's not the most current version but I crossed my fingers and it didn't brick my device.
- Problem: constant Added!! Removed!! in Odin.
- Solution: try different USB outlet
- Problem: Odin flashing stalls at SetupConnection step
- Solution: Try the official stock USB cable that came with the phone. This is USB-C on both ends, so I'm lucky my computer has the port.
- Problem: The XAA firmware file Frija gave me (again, identical down to the byte to the files produced by SamFirm) is for the Star Wars version.
- Solution: You have to manually set the PDA/CSC/PHONE values in either Frija or SamFirm to get the regular XAA variation. I made an explanation of how to get those values, and as far as I know it's the only one on the internet, here. TLDR, they are as follows:
PDA: N975U1UES2BTA1
CSC: N975U1OYM2BTA1 <-- notice the M instead of Z here (the Star Wars one has a Z)
PHONE: N975U1UES2BTA1
OP updated with resolution.
Find an older version. Flash it and then update through Samsung switch on your PC.

Updating OP with the solution.
Hi there! I was trying to change region on my Active2 from XSG to SER, but after installing CSC for my R820 I ended up on endless loading.. So now I am looking for stock firmware for XSG (UAE). Where I can find it or buy it? Thanks!
Are you able to unpack/extract files with Tool 7Zip?
Because XSG is inside OXA package... means in all leaked SM-R820 FirmwareS.
IMHO something else wrong...
Maybe start from scratch...
What you did and which Files you used?
Filenames usefull to understand what you did...
Best Regards
Hi adfree, thanks for the answer!
Yes, I can unpack files with 7Zip.
First of all, I updated the firmware to 5.5.0.2 and got version R820XXU1DUA7.
Made full reset on the watches.
After that, I downloaded the necessary files to change the region to my PC.
I have booted the watch into wireless download mode.
I connected to the watch via Wi-Fi from PC.
In the AP, I selected the COMBINATION-FT40_R820XXU1ASI2.tar file and flashed it.
After that, I made a reset in netOdin, and added the file CSC_OXA_R820OXA1ASHF_usr.tar to CSC and flashed it.
After that, I tried to boot into recovery mode, but something went wrong: there was an endless loading with text "SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch Active2".
I realized that I had made a mistake because of Tizen version. I again booted the watch into wireless download mode and through netOdinflashed all 3 files from smR820XXU1ASHF (AP, BL, CSC). (downgraded to 4.0.0.6)
After that, I again flashed the AP combinative firmware COMBINATION-FT40_R820XXU1ASI2.tar, then again the CSC CSC_OXA_R820OXA1ASHF_usr.tar.
And again I got an endless download.
After that I tried many different firmwares, but none of them resulted in booting in recovery mode after combinative firmware.
After all I installed R820XXU1CTI4 AP_R820XXU1CTI4_usr.tar + BL_R820XXU1CTI4_usr.tar + CSC_OUA_R820OUA1CTI4_usr.tar. Now I can't even update the Tizen version, because after the update, when watches is loaded, it gives me a notification "Couldn't update software. Try again later"
I will be insanely grateful to you if you help me
And one more question. When I start Spay, it says "Your watch was modified and can't access Samsung Pay". Does it means I will be never able to access spay?
Maybe, if I will flash stock firmware for XSG R820XXU1DUA7 all of my problems will gone? I think update is not installing because watches trying to install R820XXU1DUA3 update, but for XSG region I need R820XXU1DUA7? Thats why I'm searching for R820XXU1DUA7
I think u need to downgrade to tizen 4 before u can change region

As I said before, when I realized my fail with Tizen version, I have installed smR820XXU1ASHF it is 4.0.0.6 and after installed combinated firmware COMBINATION-FT40_R820XXU1ASI2.tar and again CSC CSC_OXA_R820OXA1ASHF_usr.tar. And still doesnt work, endless loading with text "SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch Active2"

Thanks adfree for idea! I've searched for new files and flashed 5.5 combinated firmware and all works fine! Thread can be closed. Thank you a lot!
Hi guys , I have just got my phone back from the police, they have had it for a year. When I try to turn it on. It’s just in a loop of displaying the Samsung logo and in top left corner saying ‘warning cmdline parameters modified’
Can someone help me please.
Try to enter download mode and use ODIN to flash the original stock image.
If you get into download mode. How do you flash the original stock image with Odin. This is all alien to me.
I had to hold the volumes buttons down and plug my phone into my laptop to access download mode. What do I do next?
You need the program called Odin:
Download Odin 3.13.1 - Samsung Odin download with ROM Flashing Tool
Odin download. Download Samsung odin 3.13.1, latest Samsung ROM Flashing Tool for android - Samsung odin download
odindownload.com
You also need the firmware of your phone. As you didn´t specify which exact model you have, you`ll have to search for the matching firmware by your own.
With the phone attached to your laptop, from within Odin you can pickup the firmware file and flash your phone...

Hi there it’s S20 Ultra 5G

I haven’t got a clue what I’m doing! How do you know what firmware you have? Also how do you search the firmware within the Odin Download
The S20 Ultra 5G should be the SM-G988B. As the phone isn´t working properly, the exact model # can´t be accessed through software info. Therefore you have to check from specifications or from your retail package or invoice if the model number really matches. Flashing a wrong firmware may brick your phone!
You may find the firmware and also an instruction how to flash on this site:
https://sfirmware.com/samsung-sm-g988b/
There exist many firmware files, as each region, patially single countries, have their own.
Each region has a list of firmware versions, differing mainly in the Android version (Q=Android 10, R=Android 11, S=Android 12)
Each version comes with several releases. Normally pick the newest release, which should be the one with the least bugs...
After downloading, unzip your file. Now you should have all the necessary files for flashing. Proceed as described on the site...
