Set PIT file.. FAIL (Odin error) - Samsung Galaxy J6 Questions & Answers

Hello, I find I have a J6 2018 that during use decides to reboot and show a message "Could not do normal boot. Invalid KERNEL LENGHT!", I then went into Download Mode to re-flash the original firmware with the respective PIT file, the phone is branded "Vodafone" (Italian operator). Once I had inserted all the files and started the procedure the following error appeared:

[Q] Soft bricked (hopefully) my phone when rooting. Help, please?

A few months ago, I got a (Verizon) Samsung Galaxy S4 (it was "free" with contract). I successfully rooted it not long after.
Just a couple weeks ago, an update was released through the verizon network, so blindly I decided to use the update, only to find out afterwards that it removed my root. I tried the same method I used before to root it, only to find people saying that the newest OTA (Over The Air) update made rooting impossible.
After a fair amount of searching, I found a method which supposedly would work (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2487142). I used the method, however it did not work, and my phone was stuck in download mode.
After previous reading, I learned that the only way to manually exit download mode was to take out the battery. Though the root attempt had failed, it was obvious that something had occurred, so I was hesitant to use the brute force method of exiting download mode. However, without knowing an alternative, I removed the battery.
Now, whenever I try to turn on my phone, I merely get the message "Firmware update has encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."
If it helps, the text displayed in the upper corner with this message is:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SCH-I545
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
SYSTEM STATUS: CUSTOM
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x0
CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x30
WRITE PROTECTION: Enabled
eMMC BURST MODE enabled
I have tried firmware upgrade and initialization in Kies3, but an error message is shown saying "SCH-I545 does not support initialization", When I tried Kies2, it just told me that the device was not responding.
I am still able to enter download mode.
When I try to flash an os using odin, I get these results:

If there is any more information you would need, please let me know.

Some people have reported getting past that screen with volume up/volume down. Worth a try.
Basically, you have NC5 system and NC5 bootloader. You tried to flash a factory stock MK2 from the looks of it and failed. What you need to do is to go to Surge1223's thread with info on flashing back to MK2 here and try to re-flash using his process.

[Q] S6 Edge (SM-G925F) Upgrade problem

I downloaded Lollipop 5.1.1 from SamMobile.com. Upgrading from 5.0.2 using ODIN 3.10.6 - the upgrade failed and now the device is soft bricked. I can still access the recovery (HOME/PWR/DN VOL), but can't apply the 5.0.2 stock ROM - that keeps failing too with SW REV CHECK FAIL DEVICE:2, BINARY:1 appearing on the device.
I'm not fussed what version 5.0.2 or 5.1.1 gets installed, but how can I get the device working properly again?
All help appreciated.
Update: I've tried using ODIN to upload the stock image and get the following:
<ID:0/003> Added!!
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..

The device displays the SW REV message mentioned above.
you can't downgrade only upgrade
Thanks for the reply. So how can I push the 5.1.1 upgrade to the device?
if you can't flash your 5.0.2 means 5.1.1. firmware is already flashed..if you had problems with the 5.1.1 firmware you must delete the hidden Img..here is an example

I downloaded 5.1.1 firmware from sammobile and ODIN 3.10.6. when i connected the phone with PC for flashing, all drivers were already updated. Then i hit start after selecting ROM n it failed on the step as mentioned in OP. I tried booting up the phone but it didn't. Then when i again tried flashing the rom after booting in download mode, the error that i mentioned in my earlier post appeared (including error of PIT). Since then the phone does not even shut down. It either boots in download mode or stays at the error screen stating something about something went wrong with the software update and use smart switch.... something like it.... any suggestions.
EDIT: I was running stock 5.0.2 firmware unrooted....

Bricked Verizon S4 ("SW REV. CHECK FAIL : fused 8")

Today I got verizon samsung s4 (new, from Woot). It came with Lollipop, but Kies suggested an update, so I tried it. The update failed and now I'm stuck on "Software Update Failed"
I couldn't find the "Verizon Software Repair Assistant" download.
I cant get it to boot to recovery. It just goes to "Software Update Failed" or ODIN
So I started trying to flash it with ODIN. Read a lot of threads (enough to realize that this is a deep mess and get quite confused) and tried half a dozen of ROMS, and a PIT, but all fail with these message in the phone:
"SW REV. CHECK FAIL : fused 8, Binary :6"
(of course, the Binary change with the firmware)
Does it means that I need a newer firmware? What else can I do?
Thanks,
Jorge
I don't have much info about what was on the phone before. The problem got me unprepared, since I expected the Kies update to be trivial.
But this is what I get on the "Software Update Failed" screen:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SCH-I545
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
REACTIVATION LOCK: Off
CSB-CONFIG-USB: 0x30
SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
eMMC BURST MODE: Enable
Please, help me fix my phone.
Have you tried flashing the firmware which corresponds to Fuse: 8? (Lollipop OC1 or OF1)
Tried with OC1 and got "Fused : 8 binary : 7"
I'm downloading OF1 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-verizon/general/of1-stock-tar-t3216417
(taking forever)
While downloading the previously mentioned OF1 (20 min left now...),
I tried with the I545_Downgrade_tC1.tar mentioned here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-to-update-to-i545of1-5-0-1-keeproot-t3182544
I got a good start flashing, but then I got:

and on the phone:

I had some problems flashing OF1, but then I used my notebook instead my PC, and worked!
For the record, I used the OF1 from here:

It means you are flashing firmware that is not compatible for your model.
use samfirm to find the correct firmware and use odin 3.10

S6 Edge Brick?

Hi xda Community,
i got a big problem on my s6 edge. Thought, i was able to flash my phone from stock 6.01 to http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/development/rom-carhdrom-1-t3111519.....it still works, but after a few days, my phone gets more lags and i was more disappointed ´bout that than the bloatware battery drain from stock rom. So...that´s the point. Tried to flash to stock 6.01, but it fails...... from now on, the only 2things i can do are to boot in download mode and twrp 3.02.....think, i don´t have any partitions installed .....

Flashing stock firmware should resolve this. First thing if you can boot into twrp clear cache partition, wipe data/ factory reset. Then try flashing stock firmware.
As for the sw rev check fail. It because the device is rooted. Carhd rom is pre rooted that's why you get that message.
Try again flashing stock firmware after the above steps. Let me know of any errors
Ok....SmartSwitch didn't work,so tryin' to Download another Stock Rom with samfirm, vd2.... Hidden.img Fail, but cleared.......everythings fine now.....so, thx for your help......
