Very dead S4 mini GT-I9195 LTE Germany

Hey guys,
i have a serious phone damage/brick over here.
I can start the device only in download mode, which is probably not that bad.
Anything i flash through Odin is not working:
Code:
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> I9195XXUCOE4_I9195OXACOE1_I9195XXUCOE4_HOME.tar.md5 is valid.
<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..
<OSM> Leave CS..
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)
I tried flashing the stock firmware, only the stock recovery, firmware with pit file, because of missing pit file on phone and of course Odin 1.85, 3.09 and 3.10.7
3.09 and 3.10.7 are not working at all:
Code:
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> recovery.tar.md5 is valid.
<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..
<OSM> Leave CS..
<ID:0/011> Odin v.3 engine (ID:11)..
<ID:0/011> File analysis..
<ID:0/011> SetupConnection..
So, is there any possibility left, or the phone really dead?
Background information: phone was working the other day and then turned black. Bootlooping for a while, and then even the visual effects (samsung logo) didn't even show up. At this point, only download mode is working.
Hope someone knows a solution, or even a possibility to check if emmc is still working?

404 Error files not found!
I don't think I can do an ADB sideload because the phone is currently running Sprint software. It's unlocked but, I'm using it with a GSM provider. Was hoping a flash to AT&T firmware would free up my LTE options. The only option I currently have are 1. LTE/WCDMA=Fast Data but, No voice 2. GSM/UMTS Super slow Data but, can send and receive calls.

@kdgaydos
This is for S6 Edge Plus AT&T, not for Sprint.
Look for roms here https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s6-edge-plus
You can't install Roms for one Provider to another.

Hi,
Thanks for the thread.
I have this phone but dont live in the US anymore. When I try to update it OTA is just says it is up to date. It would say it was up to date when I was stuck on android 5.1.1 and still does even after previously finding a full stock firmware and updating to G928AUCS4EQG1. It is at least nice be on android 7 now and up to date as of july 2017, but I would like to be as up to date as possible. Is there anywhere to dl the monthly updates since aug and install them? Call me stupid but I cant seem to figure out how to dl the full stock firmware from the beginning of this thread.
Thanx

opinions seem to vary on this site. The only reason I found this thread was another user pointed out that the internals of the S6 Edge+ are all the same, so in theory, any firmware should work. I really just wanted to flash the Samsung Unlocked Firmware on it but, NO ONE seems to have it anywhere, I didn't want to root and do a ROM install 'casue I didn't want to miss any updates but, it looks like support for this device is almost up.

Thank you very much "fmedina025". I've flashed it and it's doing great without any issue.

Well, well, well, little boy got super mad because somebody called him out on claiming something free "cost him money". An OTA update does not cost you money, that is also free. Are you that "stupid" that you think anybody believes that you're the only person in the world that pays for a stock firmware? Nope, what you're mad about is that somebody posted calling you out on your lie that you're using to beg for money.

it is free, what are you doing here?
get your ota free rom

Flashing tmobile firmware to SM-G9600DS (Non US S9 Duos)

Someone I know recently bought a Non US S9 dual sim and is using tmobile on it. They don't have VoLTE, Wifi Calling, or Video Calling options. Is there a way to flash the Tmobile firmware to this and get those things working? Also will the Tmobile bands be working after flashing?

I'm in the same situation as well. Bought a SM-G9600DS and it doesn't have any of these features - VoLTE, Wifi calling or video calling. VoLTE and Wifi calling menu options are missing from the settings > connections menu or from the dialer > settings menu. The video calling option is there on the dialer screen but it doesn't work. I am not interested in video calling but would prefer the other two features.
Called US T-Mobile tech support to see if they can provision WiFi calling but they said they won't be able to do any such "provisioning" and these features will not be available unless the device has them.
Does anyone know a way to enable these features for T-Mobile US on the first SIM card? Not necessarily flashing the T-mobile ROM but perhaps installing the wifi calling apks or something (pardon my dumb question)? Thank you!

Same situation. Have either of you figured out how to do this?

I'm in the same boat
I'm in the same boat - I have a SM-G9600 and trying to use on T-mobile with no Wifi calling / visual voicemail etc.
It seems that the latest T-mobile firmware is available here:
www . sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s9/SM-G960U/
The question is, can we install at SM-G960U on the SM-G9600 successfully?
Has anyone done this?

I'm have v2 bootloader on my S9 G9600/DS with OWO 2ARE6 firmware. I want to flash to T-Mobile US firmware which also comes with bootloader v2. Apparently, this requires flashing to G960U1 (US unbranded Snapdragon) first, but that only comes with bootloader v1. Does anyone know how to get to T-Mobile firmware in this case? Is there a way to rollback to the v1 bootloader on the OWO dual sim firmware? If I just flash the T-Mobile v2 bootloader without first flashing the G960U1 unbranded firmware, will it work? If the process fails, is it easy to get back to the v2 OWO firmware?

Test n find out. Never know until you try.

i woukd highly recommend against flashing firm from a different device to ur phone (yes, they are different.)
i got a solution for one of you though if u have an s9+, ill trade my locked bl g965u lol

I tried flashing the US unbranded firmware with v2 bootloader (G960U1UES2ARF4/G960U1OYM2ARF4/G960U1UES2ARF4/G960U1UES2ARF4) onto my G9600/DS with v2 bootloader. It failed with a "Re-partition operation failed" error. I had checked only Auto reboot and F. Reset Time in ODIN options. Does anyone know if there is still a way to flash?

Changing frimware from UAE to India - Resolved
Issue resolved. I first uploaded only the India specific CSC using Odin, then factory reset the phone, then I uploaded only the AP file, again factory reset the phone as soon as it booted, then uploaded the BL & CS file and again factory reset the phone. Now the CSC has been changed to INS.

Can Somebody Assist By Explaining This Odd Sitiuation

I have Samsung Galaxy Note 10+. At the back of the phone it says the model is SM-N975FD 256G. However, in the software, the model is given as SM-N976N/DSM, the CSC is N975FOXM4CTE9, CP is N976NKOU1BSLA and AP IS N976NKSU1BSLB.
This phone seems to be working with most functions, but the S-Pen has connection problems and the phone cannot connect to Samsung servers for automatic updates.
I am trying to correct this by flashing official stock firmware to ensure its does not fail to get automatic updates. I was about to flash N975F....... in an effort to match the model written at the back of the phone believing that my vendor sold me a device that was tampered with.
Will I be right to flash N975F...... replacing the N976N....?
Please help. I want a phone that is based on official firmware. Thank you in advance

SM-N975f is the Note 10+ and SM-N976n is the Note 10+ 5G.
Type *#0*# and go to version, you will see the model here.
To be one more step sure, type *#06# to see your IMEI number, then compare with the given in the box.

Thank you SubwayChamp. There is indeed something fishy about this phone. The model is given as SM-N976N as mentioned earlier. However, the serial number given by *#06# is different from the serial number stuck at the back of the phone.
So my question now, which is the true model for this phone? How come it has both N975F and N976N in its firmware packages?
If I have to use 1 type of firmware, which 1 should I go for 975F or 976N?
Unfortunately, I do not have the box - I will have to hunt for it
Your assistance is most appreciated

I believe the issues I am experiencing are a direct result of these mismatches. The S-PEN is not connecting and its not getting updates. I really want a phone that updates on its own automatically

By dialing *#06# you get the IMEI, did you see the IMEI in the back cover too, or you opened the back cover? Can you type your IMEI in a site like this https://imei.org/ or similar? And see what it throws.
If the AP and CP partitions were flashed with the firmware for N976N then I have to assume that you can incline to this firmware as they're the most important parts, probably the last user flashed the CSC for N975F to have better signal and regional compatibility.
Also, you can check in the stock recovery screen, and see which original firmware came with.

I have checked the box in which I received the phone. The label shows that its SM-N975FD Samsung Galaxy Note10+. The IMEI number is the same as that returned by *#06#.
I suspect the phone was tampered with and loaded with Note10+5G firmware for some reason.
Given this scenario, can I flash this phone with Note10+ (SM-N975F). I am afraid of bricking the phone, but I just want my phone to be official.
Please assist.

Also the back label and the box label shows the model SM-N975F which is again Note10+.
I am tempted to try out the Note10+ firmware. I pray that I will still have a working phone at the end of it all
Thank you very much. I will update on my progress

Probably the irrefutable question, how much did you pay for? (don't tell me how much) Is it worth for a Note 10+ or for the 5G version? It might be a noticeable difference. I'm inclined to think is the N10+.
Both firmware are compatible although not totally suitable, for any of them, just may encounter some glitches or unexpected results/behavior.

Guys, I am still struggling with the problem above. I have tried to flash the Galaxy Note 10+ firmware to resolve my odd situation. I am however failing (See Log below) What could be the problem. I get the error " ....<ID:0/004> Re-Partition operation failed.....". Re-partition check box is not checked

Use a different Odin version, a modified one like this https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/patched-odin-3-13-1.3762572/ if the problem persists probably you need to use the re-partition option as it seems your device was previously flashed with a non-proper firmware.

I took a lot of time to give feedback, I had been away and did not try the flashing until today.
Your guidance have been very helpful Subway Champ. I hope you can still be patient with me.
Unfortunately, I still cannot flash the phone. I have tried several versions of ODIN with various error messages. When I check re-partition, it takes me a step further, but still fails with an error that it cannot open a specified file.

It seems a restriction related to your PC/OS.
- Move the firmware to your main directory and rename it as simple as GN10 (for example).
- Run the tool as admin.
- Check the antivirus.
- Uncheck re-partition option.
- Use a different Windows version.
- Use a different PC.
- Try the firmware from GN10+.
- Try firmware from both models.

Thank you. Let me try all that and see what happens. Thanks a lot

Thank you SubwayChamp. There is indeed something fishy about this phone. The model is given as SM-N976N as mentioned earlier. However, the serial number given by *#06# is different from the serial number stuck at the back of the phone.
So my question now, which is the true model for this phone? How come it has both N975F and N976N in its firmware packages?
If I have to use 1 type of firmware, which 1 should I go for 975F or 976N?
Unfortunately, I do not have the box - I will have to hunt for it
Your assistance is most appreciated
Thank you

I believe the original case was broken and replaced with the wrong model number.
I had this problem from purchasing a unit on Ebay. When I contacted the seller, he said the case had been replaced with a different model unit and that they do this all the time. I requested and received a full refund, (primarily because the case was a little lose and did not match the model displayed on the software.
