Downloading the U version now, gonna give that a shot. then i'll try the A again in the reverse order. i would imagine the steps remain the same doing the BL first?

there was no change on the screen of my device throughout the entire process leading up to the error so its hard for me to say, i would think none of it was written at all as the device will just boot back to stock when rebooted. Definitely used the modded odin however im not sure if its the...

So my girlfriend and I are trying to wipe my old S5 so that she'll be able to use it as a temp phone untill she is able to get her hands on a new one. I flashed a stock rom using Odin with the hope that it would allow me to set the phone up as new and get around the reactivation lock issue...

As the title says I'm trying to flash a stock rom on this S5 so I can use the phone which is stuck on the activation lock screen. I'll post my Odin log below. Does anyone have any helpful guides or information I'm really trying to get this phone up and running but can't seem to have any luck...

Thanks for these commands brother! Totally resolved my issue, seriously cant thank you enough!

comand adb reboot fastboot is just rebooting my phone as normal, should i use adb reboot recovery instead? edit: dumb question, issue resolved

gonna give this a shot now

yeah I'm lived right now, currently with out a cellphone untill i test some of the above options another user posted. Here's hoping

yes and yes to both your questions. this was a 100% forced update even though dev options and auto update was set to off

I initally declined the update when the notification came up, it is currently being forced down my throat lol. thank you for the info, I really hope i can get around this incredibly annoying issue.

The update is being forced on my phone even though I have the automatic update option turned off in developer options. the update gets forced, and downloads/installs with a message that says the phone will now restart, it is at this point that my phone boots into TWRP everysingle time. Is...

AT&T Forced this update on my phone And am currently bootlooping into TWRP. ****. Anyone have any ideas? ---------- Post added at 04:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 PM ---------- I'm currently on the NotSoStock modded rom with ATT variant, everytime the update goes to install...

Question Will this cause any headphones connected to the device to trigger high impedance mode or only cans that have the power to do so?

Ended up doing exactly that and re-flashing, When I have a little more time with the device I'll go through and do a full purge of the ATT bloat.
