Hello!

So i've been failing at getting this SGS4 SCH-M919 back to stock firmware. I have CM11 nightly installed. (This is my bosses phone that i'm trying to get back to stock) So far, I've downloaded two stock firmware images (just in case firs was corrupt) and they both haven't worked.

My process goes like:
-Download drivers (or Kies, i've tried both)
-Set into recovery mode
-Start Odin (i've tried in a few versions)
-Plug phone in
-Odin recognizes
-choose file to flash
-Start the flash then I'll always get this error

<ID:0/005> FAIL! (Auth)
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

After that, i'm in a little brick mode that I can easily get out of my flashing CWM Recovery on there, and it'll boot me back into CM11.

So, any ideas? I've tried two computers, restarted...idk what to do anymore.

Thank you to anyone who tries to help me!

Looks like you're trying to flash older firmware which will never work if the device has been updated to 4.3 and up.. You need to flash either 4.3 or 4.4.2. 4.3 will work if that was the firmware they had before flashing cm11.. Otherwise you need to flash 4.4.2
