Everyone who sends their device to http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-note/ has been very happy and mentions it takes about a week.
And you can always send it back to Samsung.
I am using a Samsung Galaxy S5 G900A. I was unsatisfied with android 5.1.1 so I decided to downgrade. I followed this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785363
Now my phone says: "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."
Kies says that the connected device is not supported. However, Odin still detects my device, but keeps failing to load Android KitKat. At this point, I don't care what firmware I'm using as long as I get my S5 back to normal. Please help.
You absolutely can not downgrade that phone. The locked bootloader prevents this. There are no work arounds. You can only use the same build version or newer of the software.
Thanks, I followed part of this method to restore my phone:

I tried updating the firmware with odin and it failed and i ended up getting a soft brick, it tells me to use the Verizon Software Repair Assistant on a computer to repair my device. But the problem is i cannot seem to find the software assistant anywhere online .. someone please help
What bootloader were you on?
I attempted to flash my SM-T970 XAR with stock firmware using Odin. It failed, and now says "An error has occurred while updating the device software". Is there any way I can recover or have I just bricked my S7+? Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Try the Samsung smart switch(PC) to recovery if not you need fine the frp hijack by hagard do recovery(sofebrick)...reboot it will got you back to download mode.
Smart switch was unable to locate the device, but I tried flashing again using Odin and it worked this time! No idea why the first time failed - I did it exactly the same way.
