Phone won't charge after reset. - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A few weeks ago I decided to root my Galaxy S6 Edge+, I used Odin and remained on the default ROM. All went well except whenever I booted my phone I got the "KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING" however since I noted no adverse effects i left it be. Then this morning I reset my phone (to clear off all my apps and local photos because I was out of storage) and again all went well. Until it went flat. Now the battery is dead and when I plug it in the battery with the lightning appears but turns off after a few seconds then turns back on. Also underneath the seandroid message, there is another message that says "Custom binary blocked by FRP lock". It has been plugged in for several hours but has not charged at all despite attempting using many combinations of cables and power bricks.

UPDATE
I unplugged it and attempted to turn it on but after a few seconds of showing the splash screen, it showed the two red messages then turned off again.

The seandroid message is normal. The FRP lock is because you didn't enable OEM unlock in settings>developer options before you reset your phone.
The only solution is to reflash a stock firmware via Odin. But I can't remember anyone reporting the charging/boot problems you have after tripping the FRP lock.

Good call, worked like a charm! Thanks a lot.

[Q] Kernal is not seandriod enforcing, set warranty bit: kernel, endless boot loop

Hi all,
My friend helped me root the s4. It was working fine despite being unable to read my SD card.
Just now, I changed my SIM card and the phone restarted fine. I may have accidentally pressed and held the power button, it restarted but since then it won't go past the google image. It doesn't get into home screen, I'm out of the country and don't have a laptop or computer with me. Only an iPad, I have tried plugging it to a charger and draining the battery and nothing works. It's still stuck at the same screen w the same messages at the top.
is there any way to get my phone running? I can't get home til a couple days later.
Initially when the phone starts the yellow text saying: set warranty bit will run but now it's stuck at kernel. There's no loading or anything following after. I have tried to install an update (prompted by the phone) two days ago but it fail at the second part during installation and I selected to revert back to previous screen, the phone then restarted and worked fine.
Can anyone advise on how to get the phone to work?

Galaxy Note 4 - No Power , Wont Charge

Hi All,
I've done a fair bit of Googling about this problem and I'm fairly certain my phones (hard) bricked, but I said I'd post just to make sure.
I have a Galaxy Note 4 N910F running a custom rom ( I cant remember which ROM, I think it was like Kyros Final Edition Note 5 Port or something) , I've been running it for a few months with no problem, last night I was uninstalling various apps from my phone, games etc... when my phone froze and turned off, when I turned it back on it was stuck in a bootloop, showing the galaxy note 4 screen vibrating twice and turning off and repeating.
I tried to boot into TWRP but it just froze on the Note 4 logo with "Warranty Bit Recover Set" or something along those lines at the top, when I took the battery out and put it back in, the phone would no longer turn on, nor will it charge, its completely dead.
I somehow managed to get it turned on again after a while, went into download mode and using Odin installed a stock rom, the install went fine however when the phone restarted after the install it said "booting to recovery" and ended up with a dead Android dude and a "no command message" , I got into recovery mode then and cleared the cache. Then I restarted the phone again and the same thing happened.
Now the phone wont turn on again, I've soft reset it, left it plugged in charging for a while and still nothing. Has anyone experienced something similar to my problem before? Any advice/help is much appreciated.
Thanks
Alan

S7 EDGE bricked or hardware failure?

My S7 edge had been acting weirdly for a few weeks, things like random restarts once a few days so I didn't pay much attention and over excessively heating up to 50/55 degrees (I usually checked the temperature through CPU_Z), and just a few hours ago I ran into problems like the phone restarting on its own, never getting past the samsung logo on boot, so I did the normal thing everyone else would do and just factory reset the device through recovery mode, a point to add here the device took an absolute age to load into recovery mode, this wasn't a case of bad key combination or anything like that, the device would load this the dmverity tree hash verification thing and sit there for a good 2-3 mins which is unusual, same thing happens with factory reset takes an absolute age and comes back with the following text-:
"E: format_volume: make ext4 failed on /dev/block/platform/155a0000.ufs/by-name/USERDATA with 1(I/O error)
-- Set Factory Reset done...
Data wipe failed."
booting up the device in this state would show up with an error "Device storage corrupt" with a " reset device" button in the bottom of the screen which didn't respond to any touches which was weird as well because holding the power button and then selecting the power off option worked with no issues so it wasn't an issue with the touchscreen.
searching for a solution on google led me to flash a official firmware that I downloaded from updato, just a heads up my device has never been tampered with or had any kind of software modifications this includes flashing any roms or even official firmwares before, so I download the firmware and flashed it as usual this is the firmware that I flashed through odin 3.12.3 firmware version was G935FOJV1DQAV also my device model is SM-G935FD while the firmware I flashed was for SM-G935F but this shouldn't be an issue because when I usually got updates over the air on the device they would be for SM-G935F so if there were any issues with this they should have popped up a long time ago, so everything went smoothly and the phone booted up again as usual, did the initial setup and adding accounts, recovery everything, hooked up the charger and left the phone to download all the necessary stuff through samsung and google cloud recovery, comeback after a few minutes to find that the device just wouldn't respond to the power button or the home button to wake the device up but the led on the phone was flashing in blue color which means I did receive some notifications, so I hard reset the phone by holding down power+volume down key, same issues pop up like before the firmware I flashed getting stuck on the boot samsung logo, went back to recovery to do another factory reset again it keeps freezing on the dm-verity tree hash thing, but this time the factory reset happens properly with no errors, but the device doesn't boot up at all, gets stuck on the samsung logo and the led on top starts flashing in several different colors, just like when you boot up a brand new S7 edge.
As a last ditch effort I try initializing the device through smart switch, everything goes normally but when the flashing process starts it gets stuck on 7% indefinitely, tried everything else but to no avail, tried flashing through odin again but it gets stuck on the same point as smart switch, tried installing the firmware in parts through odin again gets stuck on the same point when flashing AP but other parts get installed without any problems, download mode boots up fine, recovery mode now boots up very slowly with a dm-verity error "E:failed to mount / system (invalid argument).
I have 1 month warranty left on my S7 edge from where I purchased it, I want to send it back for a refund or a replacement but the only thing thats kind of worrying me is that in download mode the knox switch hasn't been tripped still shows 0 (0*000), but shows system status as custom, will this effect my warranty claim if they check my device?

Boot issue

I am having an issue booting my S7 Edge (US Unlocked)...thanks in advance for reading
Woke up in the middle of the night, checked a text, pull down menu froze screen, noticed battery at 1%...plugged in to charger
Next morning, black screen with solid blue notification light
Tried restarting several times with same result, but eventually it booted normally (one time)
Phone went back to same state...black screen, blue notification
Tried several restarts and eventually went to recovery mode...cleared cache, rebooted, no luck
Over the last day and a half I tried restarting many times with varying results
Always get "Rebooting Recovery...." on top of screen
Sometimes get Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge" screen, though most often not
Usually get the "Installing updates" screen, then "No Command"
Sometimes (rarely) I can get to recovery screen...though most often not
Sometimes in recovery screen I am frozen (volume buttons don't work for selection)
I can usually get into download mode
I've tried everything I can think of and find to get the phone to restart including letting the battery drain completely and doing a full recharge and restarting without SIM/SD
Any ideas on how I can get into my phone without a hard reset...i'd like to try and backup some files/texts first if at all possible. I haven't been able to get into safe mode
Any files I can load to SD or through ADB that would help?
Phone is stock...no rooting or roms (first time keeping a stock phone...go figure)
Thanks.
I've tried flashing stock firmware from updato and sammobile with no luck. Can never get past the "Recovery Booting...." screen. No help from smartswitch. Anything else I can try?
Having the same issue...
any help would be appreciated.
Tried flashing many times and got several different errors...often if failed on cache.img.ext4
I was able to flash BL + CP + CSC successfully, then flash AP successfully. Still had boot loop issues after that though, so not much progress.
Once I did get the "error...connect to smartswitch" screen, but smartswitch did not recognize device.
Not really sure where to go next from here.

Galaxy A3 (2016) can't boot up, no matter what

It's been a few months but it would either get stuck in the "Galaxy A36" screen or during the "SAMSUNG" screen and after some time just reboot itself on its own, like again and again. A single time it actually went into the OS but crashed after about 15 seconds and never did the same thing ever again. Since then it's been really unpredictable. Sometimes it turn on, sometimes it doesn't react, no matter what kind of buttons you push. Not being able to see the battery state doesn't help either.
Got this phone from a coworker. He's not the type of person to fiddle around with the system, so he didn't try to install a different firmware or anything. I can imagine something went wrong while updating (when did it last get an update though...) or while installing some kind of app or catching a virus. Or maybe the motherboard is just fried, that would be my guess actually.
So, what did i try next? Recovery mode... it seemed to be loading something and crashed shortly after. Next up i tried getting KIES and Smart Switch to work with it, but no response. Got the USB drivers atleast and ODIN connects with it. Tried flashing it with the original firmware. For some reason it failed the first couple of times (i've been reading battery has to be atleast 50% for it to work) but a day later after charging for long time it "worked" and shown me a green PASS. However it still didn't boot up, no matter how long i waited.
Tried recovery mode again but it just shows me a passed out Android man, lol. Tried booting up and sometimes got some messages in red like "Custom binary blocked by FRP lock" and "Recovery is not seandroid enforcing" whatever that means. I know ODIN has some more options, to wipe internals but i'd rather save everything on there. Running out of ideas here. Anyone?
