MF3 = motochopper does not work. You would need to root using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387577
NOTE: You cannot unroot once you do it. If you mess up your phone with root, there is likely no way to fix it. There is no possibility of installing a custom recovery, even after you have root...and so you can't flash any ROMs either. Know the risks and issues before you proceed and make sure root is THAT important to you.
Since you are on MF3 there is also no way to downgrade to previous firmware, you are stuck with the above restrictions until someone figures out a new exploit...and no ETA on that.

So, when you try to boot it just goes to download mode? You mentioned in your first post that you had tried to root, what did you try? Have tried to get into recovery mode?

I hate to say it, but because your on mf3 and you tried to use causal, you've borked your phone. Afaik there is not currently away to recover it. You have to wait until if or when an odin flashable firmware comes out. You could try jtag but I don't think that even works. As a last resort try kies emergency recovery.
Hey thanks men, i got it.

I seriously doubt he got root.
It sounds more like he got it to boot (misspelled words).
No recovery and no way to factory reset. Sad.
Will all these folks be borked forever? On that note, I discovered an automated text survey after talking to AT&T support on the phone to light up a new SIM for a different handset. I gave high marks for the person's help, and low marks on AT&T in general, and in the last survey screen where you supply your comment, I told them what I thought of them locking the bootloader on the Samsung-SGH-I337.
The experience was not unlike wetting myself while wearing a dark suit, it gave me a warm feeling and hardly anyone will notice.

You will not be able to put a custom Rom our recovery on. You have the mf3 firmware. Don't try or you'll mess up your phone worse that it is.

You cannot flash anything. You cannot obtain a recovery or any kind of factory reset. YOU HAVE THE MF3 FIRMWARE. If you try anything else you will break your handset. Be thankful you can get it to boot up at all.

Hi I can find loads of guides to unrooting when stock rom needs flashing, but I am already running stock rom so don't really want to go thought the hassle of losing everything again.
I read a post that said I need to delete SU binary, but tried with root explorer and it wont let me delete it says it's read only
Any tips on how I can unroot when I am already on the correct official rom?
Thanks

Do you have a custom recovery installed? That will stop it. You may have to Odin back to complete stock to get it to update

Oh yeah! Forgot about that, that makes sense. I was so close it let me do the update with Kies and rebooted, appeared to work just fine but killed my wifi, wont even let me turn wifi on strange...
OK so there was no shortcut, without a part brick so I had to re-install in Odin, thanks anyway for you help
Please help!!! I tried rooting my device using this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...utmctr=(not provided)&__utmv=-&__utmk=1390275
and after clicking start in odin, the progress bar stopped moving halfway through. I didn't know what to do so i shut down my phone and when i started it back up, i got the message: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again.
Now im stuck on this screen but i can still go into downloading mode.
I am using t-mobile and my phone model is SM-900. I think the problem was because i used the wrong file in odin. Rather than using:SM-N900 (International Exynos) i used SM-N900T (T-Mobile US). Anyway to fix this or am i screwed?Please help.

No need if update through odin. Else need to unroot to get OTA
Hi guys, Ive searched and searched, but couldnt find anything that worked for me, so I apologize if this has been answered before.
I attempted to root my GS6 Sprint phone, and something has gone wrong. When the phone reboots the touch screen doesnt work at all and it doesnt find any cell signals.
I flashed to S6-UniKernel_v6-0001-ODIN, the firmware on the phone at the time was 5.1.1.
I tried to flash back using G920PVPU1AOCF_G920PSPT1AOCF_G920PVPU1AOCF_HOME.tar. but I get "FAILED" every time.
So I tried to install twrp-2.8.7.1-zeroflte.img, and that seemed to install fine, but I cant reset because even in TWRP I have no use of my touch screen.
I am using the samsung cable, and it does go to the Downloading mode, but as soon as I click start it fails.
Anyone that can help me fix this I would gladly paypal the cost of a six pack. (Mods if this isnt allowed please let me know)
Okay so here is what fixed it for anyone else like me that is a noob, and does dumb stuff to their phone. You cant roll back to old firmwares. You have to flash to the latest firmware that was on the phone or newer. I found the updated firmware and its good to go.
koop1955 said:
Minor correction. You can use the version that you started with or a later version. The only problems come if you try to use an earlier version, like going from 5.1.1 back to 5.0.2. Which won't work.
Here is the latest version available, should always work: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087002159

So checked boxes under options are;

Thats all. I clicked "AP" to load the firmware, then clicked start.
Hello.. Assuming your phone is already rooted. Pls follow the below procedure
1. Restart and let the phone biot. Plug in your usb and insert a new for installation purpose
2. Hold and press power+up+home button to boot into recovery
3. Format and reflash the new rom
Should works like a charm

Okay so I grabbed the lastest ODIN and was able to go back to the stock recovery. I performed a wipe/factory reset, but it still wont let me use the touch screen! ARG! It didnt clear the new kernel. Could it be because Im flashing to an older firmware? I cant find 5.1.1 anywhere...

Is the a Galaxy s6 or a S6 edge+ of edge+ you've been flashing the wrong firmwares, which would explain the issues you're having
Try a different cable or usb port or redownload the firmware file as it may be corrupted.
Press thanks if I helped.
You're on the wrong forum. This is for the Edge+. You have a S6. Not Edge, not +.

I downloaded section "VNS-L21C185B360" - This is my phone btw
I downloaded "http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/d...ull/update.zip"
I unrared it, puted it in dload folder on SD and force update via 3 button method, after that I got success message, then when I booted into Android, really wierd thing was, that it booted up like normaly, really fast, no preloading, no keyboard, I need to confirm android factory reset with my old email (which I can't enter, because only google voice typing is on)
Btw, I factory reseted 10x before installing update and clearing cache
