S6 Edge (SM-G295I) Bricked - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I have a galaxy s6 edge (SM-G925I) and when a friend gave me the phone you could enter to the OS with the issue that there was no IMEI registered. So I said let me check it out. So when i checked i've noted that if I started in download mode, i would get binary and system as custom, so I downloaded stock rom from samm G925I_G925IDVU1AOD1_G925IXSA1AOD1_XSA because another friend has the same phone from the same company and that is the firmware he has. So l tried using Kies 3 and Smart Switch the recovery with no solution. When download finished... I tried to install using odin 3.10.6 and fail everytime, and when i turn on the phone its stucked in the Samsung logo.
Any idea to save it?
Thanks in advance:cyclops:

You can't use Kies you have to use Odin to get it back to stock.

This is the Edge + forum, you have an Edge? Different devices. You need to post on the Edge forum.

If you're still able to get into download mode try rooting your phone, install custom recovery and boot into recovery.
Then flash a custom rom
After that if you want stock again test if Odin works
@Ticky-Nax
Odin fails to flash if the firmware isn't the right one for your phone or you've got a bad download.
Look on the backside of your phone. There's some text. Search for something like SM-G925 and another letter behind it. Now visit http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and insert exactly the modelnumber from your back. Now search for a firmware from the Netherlands and download it. Last of all you need to flash it again with Odin and it should work.
@mattan1999's method won't work because you killed your bootloader I guess. This means you really have to reflash a stock firmware with Odin
I hope this helps a bit

SM N910V Software Update Failed

A week ago i tried updating my verizon samsung galaxy note 4 via the Verizon Software Repair Assistant. First i upgraded it to the latest software available but as there were some problems during the instalation i decided to repair the phone(deleting everything) an made a backup in my computer. The thing is during this process it got stuck over and over again in 83%. So i took out the battery (even when its not recommended to do so), uninstalled the Verizon Software Repair Assistant (first i deleted the device from my computer), drivers and Kies. But when i tried to download everything again the USB didnt recognise my phone and didnt download the Software, tried looking for it online but no luck.
Now i am stuck with this message in Odin Mode:
Software Update Failed
Your device didnt update successfully. Use the Verizon Software Repair Assistant on a computer to repair your device and complete the update.
My phone details:
Model: SM-N910V
SKU: SMN910VZWE
Tried to solve this with Kies, Smart Switch, unroot it with Odin, etc and it didnt work. Can somebody help me?

You should download the latest stock tar file and flash it with Odin. That should resolve your issue.

Thank you for response, help and effort, but I did by Odin few minutes ago, just using repair firmware file for my N910V Note4..!
If somebody has same issue or similar I think him/her could use it to resolve too. Thanks to xda user Trex888 who published the next link to download correct file for my phone: http://www.tsar3000.com/Joomla/inde...ader-csc-pit-files&catid=55:samsung&Itemid=82
Complete thread link is: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/software-update-failed-sm910v-t3498246
Thanks again..!
I had same issue, fail on all firmware (Verizon Note 4), changed usb cord, flashed back to stock and was even able to downgrade (5.0.1).
Does anyone know the name of the file that worked? Link is dead.

Did I make jewellery out of my s7 edge? :S

I have the S7 Edge SM-G935F, which is the exynos version I believe.
It starting with unrooting, which boot looped my device. I have tried samsung kies firmware recovery but the download always stopped at a certain percentage saying an error was found in the dowloaded file. I tried to fix it by flashing what I believed was the stock bootloader with odin but that made my problem worse.
It turns on and shows a red coloured screen, and the voice assistant kicks in to babble but seems to not respond to touch at all. I think I can go into download mode, because I've seen a shop assistant get into it when I took it to see if they can fix it. Unfortunately It would cost 230 euros, which I cannot afford. And in case you are wondering, no I didn't buy the phone. I got it as a birthday gift, as I never owned a smartphone before that.
I loved trying out apps and tweaking the phone with root, but unfortunately I wasn't careful enough.
Is there any hope for me? Thanks in advance if anyone could help me out.
EDIT: Thank you to both replies! I did as you said and I downloaded the correct firmware. It seems the one I flashed before was actually incompatible. Everything works now thought, I lost all data but better than having no phone.

Go to sammobile.com, create an account & download the latest firmware for SM-G935F. Install Samsung Drivers on pc. Boot device into download mode. Extract the downloaded firmware and use odin to flash it.
In case you don't know there are 2 S7 phones, S7(930F) and S7 Edge(935F) and their firmware files are not exactly interchangeable.
I think you might flash s7 firmware on your s7e since red screen is the same symptoms when you flash S7flat kernel on S7 Edge. The fix is easy, just reflash again with the correct file.

[URGENT!] How do i get out of this situation with my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge i have?

First I rooted my phone a couple days ago and I came upon this problem with the my phone when I decided i didn't want to have it rooted anymore so... i tried to unroot the Samsung Galaxy s7 Edge using odin3 and when i did. The bar said it failed. Next I shut it down by using the power button and i saw a blue screen saying "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software.". Then i went to install Smart Switch PC software and when i got to the part where you had to press okay after putting the serial number and model number in. The program would always crash and it didn't leave any error message. I then tried Samsung Keis but that didn't work as well. I got an error message saying "Please check the model name and enter it". So now i am stuck with the blue screen. Any solutions in which i can solve this please?

Since you are in a rush, have you tried to Odin flash the Samsung Official stock S7 / S7 Edge firmware yet?
That would be the fastest and surest way to get your phone up and running properly in less than 20 minutes.
Trying to get your phone up and running properly any other way would take a lot longer and most likely you
would end up odin flashing the official stock firmware in any case.
You can find the proper official stock firmware for your phone's model at http://sammobile.com or
you can download the stock official firmware from this fast direct download link: http://tinyurl.com/ht62lko
Good luck, have a great day!
When Smart Switch or Kies ask for the model number, always make sure you enter 'SM-' before the model Eg, SM-G935F

I've found myself in the above situation when messing with CSCs, the fastest solution is to keep an Odin package always on hand ready to flash whenever you screw up, I've never trusted the sketchy Samsung software.

O2U Note 4.... Broken?

So this is a bit of an odd situation my friend is having. He bought his Note 4 off eBay over a year ago, and it was (and still is) a rooted mess. And I mean a big mess. Now I'm trying to help him fix it, because he can't update his phone at all whatsoever from 5.1.1. So I send him 6.0.1 firmware for O2U and have him go into Download mode, odin, all that fun stuff. Download mode says SM-N910T. Settings says SM-N910F. Anyway, he tries flashing the firmware via odin, fails, I have him try multiple things (I'm pretty tech savvy when it comes to this type of stuff) but it always failed. Also, "Current Binary" and "System Status" are both custom, and the KNOX counter is 0x1.
So what I'm asking is, how to fix this problem for him? What steps should he take (or should I help him take)? Is this actually a T-Mobile phone from the USA, but rooted to work with O2 sim cards? The hell is going on here?
Thanks for any replies, and all suggestions will be taken seriously and addressed.
Install the Phone INFO Samsung APK by vndnguyen and see what it's written there.
Get the serial number - example: mine is a 910C with serial RF8H70D.... and so on (obviously I can't write it all here)
With this serial number try with Samsung Smart Switch on the PC and see what info you get. Also you have the possibility to get the latest original firmware installed on the phone.
Good luck.

Looks like its an refurbished note 4 original motherboard is N910T and faked with N910F software cuz N910F has more value in Market.
So the bottom line is you have N910T Tmobile note 4 and you have to flash N910T firmware but after flash firmware from odin you have to immediately boot into stock recovery by pressing 3 button combo and do factory reset to get clean fresh opreating system otherwise it will get stuck in a bootloop at samsung logo.
First boot after flash and factory reset can take upto 10 minutes.
You can get firmware from www.sammobiles.com/firmwares
Or from link below for faster download.

Remember once you flash this latest marshmalow firmware there is no way you can ever downgrade to 5.1.1 again.
Good luck

Thanks so much! Everything is flashing on his phone right now like it should be. Appreciate it a bunch!
I also used samsung-firmware.org. I would use sammobile but I only had enough on my card for a 48 hour upgrade.
