Stuck on recovery mode after NCG Kernel flash on S5 SM-G900V

[smn216]

I have been literally sitting in front of my PC for hours on end to try and resolve this issue. I cant get back my current firmware now even. Just stuck on the recovery mode. I flashed NCG kernal and it went through as normal, however, all it does not is after the samsung loading sign it goes back into system recovery. I have tried everything from cache wipe to factory reset, system reboot, everything! it just does the same thing - goes back into recovery mode- it is getting really frustrating for me. I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me exactly how to get out of it and use the phone as normal again.

I am on sm-g900v
G900VVRU2BOG5
Verizon mobile S5

I have tried to flash almost all the available ROMS and nothing works everytime this come up: ( i am using the latest Kies drivers, Odin 3.10.6, etc)..

You are on the latest OTA of BOG5. The bootloader is completely locked down and you cannot root, downgrade, or flash anything. You are stuck with the phone as is. You will have to find the BOG5 full stock firmware .tar file and flash that through ODIN to get your phone back.

Damn!!!!

do you know any links from where i can download the BOG5 firmware from?

I am also stuck with the same issue on my S5. I attempted to flash the NCG Kernel from Android 5.0 using the file referenced in here: androidbiits.com/root-verizon-samsung-galaxy-s5-sm-g900v-android-4-4-4-kitkat/ (sorry I can't post links yet). Now my phone can't leave recovery mode. Did you guys figure out where to get the BOG firmware or how to fix this issue?

 

[smn216]

You need to reinstall the BOG5 firmware on the S5 again. You can download it via sammobile.com You can pay £5.40 approx if your from UK and download the firmware quicker within an hour otherwise be prepared to wait 11 hours minimum for download to complete.

So I managed to get mine back working by using the VZW-G900VVRU2BOG5-20150813111348.zip firmware downloaded from Sammobile.com and flashing using Odin3.

Used the first firmware on Sammobile firmware page for model SM-G900V
Unzipped the file and flashed the .md5
Back up and running.

Hope this helps someone.

Seriously, do none of you have even the basic, simple ability to look through these forums at all? The answer to your question is right here in the Verizon Galaxy S5 General forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general

You simply scroll down to the fourth thread and see that it is this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/g900vvru2bog5-factoryodintarimage-t3179527

The title of the thread is literally "G900VVRU2BOG5_Factory_Odin_Tar_Image. Good Lord!

Hey man, I am new here. I was freaking out the other night because everything I was trying was failing. I understand with a little more patience and effort I could have found this. Then again with a little more research before attempting to root I probably would have avoided the whole issue. I messed up, my bad.

Same here, in fact it was my first time posting and I was also kind of lost. In any case, thanks for the lesson and the links.

Understood. It just gets very old and frustrating answering the same questions over and over again, and questions for which the answer is already readily available. Glad you got it straightened out, and that you realized more research before embarking on your adventure would have helped. When it comes to messing around with an expensive piece of hardware like these smart phones, it's best to think of the carpentry line - measure twice, cut once. Read, read, read, and make sure you know what you are doing before you do it when it comes to rooting and modding your phone.
