Help i soft bricked my phone! - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HELP!, Just now, I attemped to flash the BOH4 modem I downloaded from the phoenixrom thread using mobile odin app.
Now, I am unable to boot into recovery mode. when I attempt to boot the phone, it hangs at the galaxy s5 screen with the top left showing 'recovery booting...' in blue. I am only able to boot into download mode at this moment! Someone please help!

Flash a stock ROM from download mode then?

Can you please post a link for that? sorry for the inconvenience!

bootloader problem on s6edge+

hey guys im sorry if i post this on the wrong section but i followed this tutorial: droidviews(dot)com/root-galaxy-s6-and-s6-edge-on-android-6-0-1-marshmallow-update/ to root my s6 edge+ and it went black... after some research i found out the tutorial wasnt for my device(SM-G2928F) so i flashed it with cf-autoroot and then it boot looped for like an hour. I downloaded the original greek firmware from sammobile but it brings me up this error: SECURE CHECK FAIL : (BOOTLOADER).. any help?
UPDATE: changed the port and run Odin as admin now it says: SECURE CHECK FAIL : (RADIO) Odin log: pastebin(dot)com/4w1943HF
UPDATE: now when I exit recovery mode it doesnt start and tells me: An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software.(I can still go into recovery mode)
Let me check you have flashed a firmware not for your device with odin or just a zip? First I would try flashing the most recent firmware you can find for your device with odin, some bootloaders can't be downgraded. If that doesn't work then the emergency firmware recovery will work, I've used kies emergency firmware a few times.
Hopefully someone with your device will point you in the right direction if you are stuck
I flashed a firmware not for my device but I found a solution on another XDA post thank you

Please help!!!!!!

Today i was trying to install the Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 on my Galaxy S5 Snapdragon via Odin, i downloaded the firmware from Sammobile, i verified that the phone model was exactly the same as named on the firmware, i place the .md5 file in the AP slot and everything was ready to go! (The phone was already plugged and in Bootloader mode, and drivers were up to date) then when finishing the flash Odin FAILS to complete the flash and the phone is left with nothing than the Download mode, i panic and try to access recovery mode but realize that there´s no recovery....I proceed to install the recovery.tar into my phone and it works, i start the phone and Samsung logo comes up, finally it loads and does al the process after you flash a Samsung phone.
Everything works just fine!...except for one thing, THERE´S NO RECOVERY!!!. The phone works perfectly but when i try to enter recovery mode, it sends me to Odin mode as it displays a message saying that failed to boot into recovery.
Please help me i don´t know what to do.
Thanks!
Just flash a custom recovery like twrp or cwm

You need to flash a pit file to complete the install correctly.

A20e (SM-A202F) stuck in download mode - error validating footer

Hello, i hope someone can help me. My goal was to install lineageos on the A20e. So i unlocked the bootloader succesfully. Then i wanted to install TWRP. I used heimdall for flashing (with: heimdall flash --recovery twrp.img). The process ended without any errors. But since this point the phone stuck in download mode. When i restart the phone (volume down + power) the phone runs rapidly into the download mode. On the top left corner it show an error message (look at the screenshots). I tryed to flash twrp again for two or three times and one times the orange recovery - the results are the same.
I can still reach the phone via heimdall or odin. i have downloades the latest stock rom. So i hope to unbrick the phone - but until now i have no idea how to do. Please tell me, if you know some hints. You can also post if you think its hopeless and there ist no way to unbrick the phone.
Update: I have flashed the stock rom via odin succesfully. now it starts normaly. Do i want to do a next try ;-) ...
Thread can be closed...
Thank U
Jan
