[FIX] Flashing stock FW fails on flashing hidden.img step (ODIN)

I have faced it myself, and somehow I fixed it by myself. Since it fails on Hidden.img, my mind clicked.

Here are the steps:
1 - Download your Stock FW, its file extension should be '.zip'.
2 - Extract it anywhere you like, then you get the PDA file which its extension is '.md5'.
3 - Flash it, and wait till it Fails.
3 - Right click to open the .md5 file and choose WinRAR.
4 - There you will find boot.img, system.img and other files, but you will also find the hidden.img.
5 - Extract hidden.img to your desktop and then rename it as hidden.img.tar.
6 - Import hidden.img.tar into ODIN in the PDA tab.
7 - Finally, restart your device into Download Mode, then flash it.

If you have any issues, feel free to ask.

Software update registration failed after odin flash.

Hey guys i was using cm 12.1 on my i9500 then i flashed back to stock rom .. i removed all mods ,root and everything and did a clean install via odin.. everything is working fine but i'm unable to register to software update ... I'm sure i installed the correct firmware because it worked for me last time ... i want this to work because i broke its sim card slot and i need to get back my warranty before i go to the care.. Thanks !

Here's what i tried so far
- factory reset
-reboot
-i also tried downloading other stock firmware and i have the same error.

And in download mode it says ODIN mode .. does this have anything to do with it ? ill post some screenshots now.

If i flash stock rom with odin, i lose twrp right?

I flashed twrp 2860 onto my jp softbank s6 edge sm925Z. 5.0.2 android.
I want to remove this bloatware trash.

Is there a way for me to backyp my current firmware
And then try another countrys firmware with odin, from the samsung
Firmware page?

Samsung does not release the jp softbank sm925z firmware.

So my question is, . . .
If i flash chinese firmware i will lose TWRP right?
Then i can not return to my backup stock rom. Because no twrp.

So i would need to hope i can reinstall twrp on the chinese rom right?

If i try other firmwares, i will lose wifi and cellular service right?

Is there a way for me to change or insert my wifi cellular partition information
To new roms or firmwares?

Note 4 ATT 5.1.1 Odin Files in Progress

Credit goes to this poster http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...9&postcount=14

I just downloaded the files from the host so they could be uploaded to Mega due to extremely slow throttling speeds for two of the major files. I have not yet been able to test these files myself and two of the major ones are still uploading to Mega. If these files are tested by someone else before me I will be at work till around 6PM Mountain Time, but please message and or reply to this thread to let me know if the files are successful or if they are incorrect or contain things they are not supposed to. If the files are bad I will remove them as soon as possible. If I test it first I will edit this post with results.
