Odin Fails at MODEM.bin - How to fix it.

[robb13]

So I finally decided to flash firmware 4.1.2 on my G.Cam (AT&T). I downloaded the firmware from SamMobile and started flashing through ODIN but it got stuck on Modem.Bin and failed. I tried several other firmware and all of them failed on Modem.bin

When I tried to turn on my camera a screen with "Error on Upgrading, try Recovery with Kies" came out. I must admit I panicked so I searched all the forums here on XDA and the same thing happen to somebody on their Galaxy Tab 10.1 The solution for them and for me was to root through Odin.

Like magic, it worked. I flashed through odin the CF-Auto-Root Adam have us on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995245

And after that my camera boot once again and now I have Android 4.1.2

I'm happy everything turned out ok, so I that's way I'm sharing this so that other users that have the same problem as me can know what to do (this should be a sticky).

Happy Flashing.

Flash fail with Odin for Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000

Hi,

I'm trying to flash another firmware for my GIalaxy Note 10.1 N8000. I have read all tutorials etc. and prepared all according to it.
I was able to succesfully root to Clockwork Recovery so i though flashing another firmware to turn the Note into a European one instead of Chinese would be easy too. WRONG!!

Every time i want to flash with Odin it fails in the beginning of the process, see below:
Is there anyone who could comment me on what to do? I was able to recover from the failed flash attempt but i really want to flash another firmware from Europe for this Chinese version.

Hi,

You need to be posting this in the Galaxy Note 10.1 N80xx Q&A forum. This one is for the Galaxy camera!

However, make sure you don't have Kies running. I turn it off completely using Microsoft's autoruns program. Good luck.

Hi i already moved this topic to the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A section.
However i just installed the USB drivers only, never used KIES on my pc before at all so this should not be the reason.
I tried two different Firmwares already both flash in a different sequence but both fail at modem.bin. I have no idea why.

Please if anyone has some idea please comment on this topic under the Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A section of this forum, i moved this to there.

Thanks a lot.

This is the newest post that closed to the issue I get that I could find on Google. So I also got this problem that odin seems to stops (it just never finish) at modem.bin.

I am trying to root my Samsung note 10+ and here is the whole process:
I used SamFirm (v0.5.0) to download firmware (Model SM-N975F, region: SIN, auto), extract it.
Then I used Magish manager to patch AP... file from extracted folder, then copy it back to the extract folder on the computer.
Then use Odin (tried both v3.13.3 and v3.14.1, same results) to flash the files to the phone.
(I following this tut: https://www.thecustomdroid.com/root-samsung-galaxy-note-10-plus-magisk/)
However when I tried for note 10+ I got this issue.
If I load AP file by the original AP file from extracted folder above, then I can flash it to PASS! and recover the phone to fresh state.

The strange thing is I have done similar process and success for my note 10.
Is there anything else I can try here ?
