[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] RK:
The first boot after you take the OTA, dial *#8736364#. This brings up the firmware update menu. Click on 'Result'. There, you will see a screen that looks like the one attached.

Here is how things worked for G900A:

I went to the server URL in the attached image using stock Samsung browser. This downloaded a file named desc and then I got a prompt to download the OTA. I clicked OK and the download started and failed.

However, the failed download did create a file named desc.bin on my phone. I clicked on that file and to my surprise, I got a pop up menu that had a download option. I selected download and then finally the full 911mb file named desc.bin downloaded on my phone.

I renamed it, changed the extension to zip and uploaded it!

Worked perfectly. I was on PG3. (PG3 to PA2, then PA2 to PA3, and then from PA3 to PH2).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] rosteven:
Just tried this on my S5 that was stuck on PA2, and it worked great. Now on MM !!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] teddyspaghetti:
+1 success. Finally. But neither zip from this thread worked. I’m not sure that it all makes sense, but I’ve retraced my steps to success here in case it helps anyone else. (Even if only to point out my own incompetence.)

My S5 was on OI5 (Given to me for free and SIM locked. I give up waiting for root, so might as well update this new fancy mp3 player of mine.)

1.

In Odin, flashed to PA2 from here. (AP, CP and CSC, but not BL, like a commenter mentioned.)

I also skipped PA1, since I saw someone saying it was unnecessary... (It later gave me an Error Status 7 when I even tried.)

2.

Back in Odin, flashed all PA components now, including BL, since in Recovery PA2-PA3.zip and PA3-PH2.zip both failed, E:Error in /sideload/package/update.zip (Status 7).

3.

I searched the internet and found different steps with additional update zips http://www.androidsage.com/2016/08/03/how-to-update-att-galaxy-s5-to-android-6-0-1-marshmallow-g900aucu4dpg3/:

PA2 --> PE3 --> PF3 --> PF8 --> PG3 --> PH2

4.

In Recovery, flashed G900A_PA2-to-PE3_OTA.zip from the above Android Sage link.

Phone is now on Android 6.0.1. :D

5.

Still, for good measure I continued flashing (in Recovery) PF3, PF8, etc. For each, installing from SD was successful, but Recovery still said PE3. After a full reboot and initial setup, it now reads as PG3, the latest update before PH2, which fails to install.

Flashing PA2 - PA3 and PA3 - PH2 still return an Error Status 7, though. I’m sure it’s some noob mistake on my part. Yet, I’m already on 6.0.1, so not sure I care.

A triumph, huge success.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] drahmadzia17:
Thnx Buddy, I'm in same boat, I hope it'll work for me too. I'll try it today :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] johnnynmonic:
I'd stop at PG3 anyway. PH2 has a bug where mobile data keeps switching off (for some people, I haven't had it happen yet).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] drahmadzia17:
E:Error in /sideload/package/update.zip (Status 7) SOLUTION

Whoever flashed PA2 via Odin like me, they probably flashed it without flashing BL (Bootloader). and ended up with this error.

I re-flashed PA2. All 4 files including BL and then PA2-PA3.zip and PA3-PH2.zip via recovery now running MM :):o:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] hp786:
Regarding data automatically turning off but itself -- My friends, some people (not everyone) may not realize that they have Power Saving mode turned ON. And if it is ON, the data does turn off after the screen turns off (or a few seconds after that, or whatever/whenever). If you wish to keep the data on all the time, go to Power Saving Mode option and toggle the "Restrict all background data" to "Off". Alternatively, you can keep the Power Saving off if you prefer it that way.

Stuck on AT&T Splash Screen

I've flashed the PH3 file via Odin and have semi-revived my soft bricked GS5. Previously, I was only able to get to the Samsung Galaxy S5 screen and no further, since I Odin'd to the PH3 I've improved my luck. The phone booted to the gear screen where it updates all the Android apps. I thought I was out of the woods but after going through that process it progressed to the AT&T splash screen and just sits with no progress. I let the phone sit for three hours as I thought it was running processes in the background but the phone just heated up and did nothing.

One question I have is, does the PH3 tar.md5 file include the appropriate kernel? I'm thinking that's why it can't completely boot up.

Any help is appreciated, using a GS5 mini as a backup so no desperation to get it up and running in a hurry.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] RK:
Try rebooting to recovery and do a factory reset from recovery. As for the ph3 file, that is the complete official ph3 firmware for the g900a. It includes everything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] uss..p8triot:
Factory Reset

Tried the idea for a Factory Reset but no joy! I get to the same point, just the AT&T splash screen.

Any other suggestions?

Thank you for your suggestion on the reset.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] RK:
I am out of ideas! The PH3 file is the official firmware. It should boot normally. I have used it on my phone a couple of times without issues. It does take a long time on the att logo but it does boot eventually.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] uss..p8triot:

I didn't Odin flash the BL, CP, and CSC files. Once I pulled my head out...things went as expected.

[Moto Z Force Questions & Answers] rejectedjs:
About an hour before writing this, I moved a cable off my desk which was also under my Force, and off goes the force back first onto the floor. Seems perfectly fine, using it just like normal, but after doing some things in the play store I decided to lock the phone with the power button, I pressed it. Aaaaand nothing.

Volume keys worked fine, everything else worked fine..why not the power button? Who knows. I tried restarting through adb hoping that was the issue and not the drop, didn't fix anything. So...I had possibly the dumbest solution possible. Lets replicate the drop and see what happens. Power button starts to work, but barely, you have to really press it hard to get it to work. Thought lets do it again. Now it's back to not working at all.

At this point I'm scared of dropping my phone any more because I don't want to break the entire thing, but I'm starting to get hopeless. One of the drops I tried to replicate it, it landed face first and cracked my screen protector. :rolleyes: So I'm like screw it.

I cover the back camera of the phone with like 4 sheets of tissue and put it inside a PLESON TPU case, to cover the camera, and I just outright drop the thing from like 5 feet high, back first. Now the power button works perfectly again (What the ****?) All that was lost was a good screen protector...?

TL;DR don't drop your phone back first, your power button might become misaligned with...god knows what.

I've tried 3.4 of that zip on CM13. Same issue. I just don't get it, I've seen tons of test videos and the camera is smooth in all lighting conditions. I don't think this is a hardware issue, I'm not sure why I can't seem to find the right combo of software.

I can get a smooth viewfinder using Snap Camera HDR (not the one included in CM13 but this one: goo.gl/fqJLNY [leads to Play Store])

I think the problem may actually be libraries; any apps that use the camera are also ****ty and smeary, like Skype/Hangouts/Snapchat. I guess I can try flashing back to Oxygen, but I'm not sure I want to do that and if memory serves, it had the same issue.

That's what I ended up doing; after some poking around I found it's the AOSP 5.1 camera. Then I found a port on the Store called M Camera so I used that instead of flashing it from Halogen. Not sure though, the pics aren't as good as Google Camera or the OOS camera.

start downloading image...

please plug-in usb cable...

And that's all... Now I can't go to Arabian to change my PDA and there is no service center that can fix it in Russia :(

I tried soft and hard reset and no effect.

When I connect PDA to PC the new hardware "Asus USB sync" appear in system, but Active Sync does not recognise them (I have 4.5 version).

All o2 zinc upgrade software are working with active sync and available os and i can't use them.

I've extracted binary filles from update exe, larger of it i've rename to MarsII_G4.ABI and put it on SD. But after insterting card and restarting nothing happens.

I also have some knowledge of elelectronic.

So, please help, how can I fix my PDA?

transfer it to windows directory of other ppc and plug it to pc via mini usb and activesync 4.5

download and run any zinc rom from seeo2

if you did it well the upgrade software cant recognize the device type so continue update progres until your ppc get reset.

replace that ppc with your zinc and update will continue to end and your zinc will be fin.

choose any lang you wish.
