S7 EDGE - Possible bricked phone - Need help (Full details in thread) - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Phone: Samsung S7 Edge, SM-G935F
Country: UK
Here is my problem. I had rooted my phone, installed TWRP, and flashed Renovate edge. Then I ATTEMPTED to encrypt the phone through
the setting "encrypt device" and I chose full encryption. The phone then wouldn't boot, it would only let me go into recovery, So I wiped the
phone with the intention of using a backup of the STOCK OS. After I wiped the phone it now won't let me boot into recovery to flash anything.
Current situation:
When I attempt to switch on the device: Custom binary blocked by FRP lock (small red writing on the top left)
When I attempt to boot into the recovery: Recovery is not seandroid enforcing (small red writing on the top left)
When I boot into download mode: It works and ODIN recognizes the device
Download mode information on screen reads:
ODIN MODE
DOWNLOAD SPEED: FAST
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G935F
Current Binary: Custom
System Status: Custom
FRP LOCK: ON
Secure Download: Enabled
Warranty Void: 1 (0x020c)
RP SWREV: B:1 K:0 S:0
I have already tried installing a stock ROM using ODIN and setting the phone into download mode, I get this error:
<ID:0/004> Odin engine v(ID:3.1101)..
<ID:0/004> File analysis..

<ID:0/004> Re-Partition operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
On screen: Secure check fail : (PIT)
Where do I go from here? Now I just have a very expensive brick. Is there a solution to this? PLS HELP
My preferred outcome is reverting the phone to stock OS, I just want it working again.

Try flashing your phone with the firmware from:

Follow the steps.
Do not tick "Re-Partition".

If you flash latest firmware from Aug 16 you WON'T BE ABLE TO ROOT OR FLASH TWRP!
CF-AUTOROOT needs to be updated as well as TWRP.
If you just want to return to Stock and not root you won't have to worry about it then follow that thread that was provided for you.

:laugh: thanks guys, I'd been scouring forums for days trying to figure out what to do. I should've made a post earlier. Thank you very much. My phone is now working perfectly!
Is there a way to reset the knox counter and un-void the warrenty?

Nope

[Q] SM-N9005 bricked, help needed!

I managed not only brick one, but two SM-N9005, trying to do the Root de la Vega (yes, I used the right files).
After entering download mode, Odin failed after a short time (blue status bar was 2mm long).
Now the phone only says: Firmware upgrade encountered an issues. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
But:
- Kies recovery fails
- I can't go into recovery mode, only download mode.
- Can't install stock ROM with Odin, fails as well.
- Can't CF-Auto-Root, Odin fails.
Note: Reactivation lock is OFF.
Any ideas?

Just tried it again with ODIN v3.07 and got the same error message in ODIN

This is getting really frustrating...
I tried different ODINs running on XP, Win 7 and Win 8.
I ran ODIN as Admin or Standard user and I used different USB ports and cables.
Nothing seems to help.
For example, trying to flash stock ROM gives me this error in ODIN:

There is no error message on the display... that's exactly the text I see as well.
The only things that happens on the display the moment ODIN displays "FAIL", the blue progress bar freezes... I'd day it doesn't get further than 1-2%.
Normally there should be a red line with the error code/message.
All I can suggest is you try flashing stock rom using the several files (Kernel, PDA, CSC) method if you already havent done so already.

Why didn't you use ODIN 3.09 like guide here on XDA says?
Have you tried with that version?

Thats not 'Download Mode', thats phone firmware recovery mode.
Can you get to 'Download Mode'? - ie. Green Andriod Robot screen? (Pull out the battery, Vol Down, Home and Power)
When I soft brinked my phone, I eventually got it working by doing this..
1) Boot into 'Download Mode'
2) Using Odin 3.09 flash Stock Kernel (my kernel file was 'KERNEL-BTU-N9005XXUBMJ3-1381515654.tar'), this enabled boot to 'Recovery Mode' where is was not working before.
3) Using Odin 3.09 flash CSC (my CSC file was 'N9005OXABMJ3_CSC.tar.md5')
4) Boot into 'Recovery Mode' and wipe all (System, Data, Cache etc..)
5) Using Odin 3.09 flash Stock Firmware (my file was 'N9005XXUBMJ3_N9005OXABMJ1_N9005XXUBMJ2_HOME.tar.md5') - this will fail.
6) Using Kies 3 Beta - Perform a 'Emergency Firmware Recovery', recovery code is required - this got be back to normal
Hope this helps.

Uhm, probably a dumb question, but did you use the CSC file as well? Didn't see that in the SS.

Unfortunately, no progress. Fails at the very same stage all where all my other efforts have failed, too.
Note: I am using the standard USB 3.0 cable which came with the Note 3. I have tried about 5 different USB 2.0 I have at home. Windows would not recognize a USB device being connected, but the Note 3 itself starts to charge the battery.
What was the csc of the phone before you tried the first flash?
Sent from my SM-N9005
SUCCESS!!
I went to the basement and dug out an old Win XP laptop, approx. 2002 vintage, which has not been used since probably 2005.
Plugged in my Note 3 with the USB 3.0 cable (of course at USB 1.0 speeds), re-ran Root de la Vega from scratch and voilĂ , it worked!
LESSON LEARNED: Do not use VMWARE FUSION/MAC to root. IT WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE.

[HELP] i9505 Stuck in Boot (serious problem)

Hi all,
Two weeks ago I dropped my Samsung GT - I9505 S4 ( T -Mobile NL ). The screen was damaged (black), but the phone still worked. I could hear the startup sound and also incoming mail and whatsapp messages. So the phone was alive, but the screen was dead.
So i ordered a new screen and replaced it myself. This was no problem at all. The screen replacement was a succes. The S4 logo came up. I was happy the screen replacement worked. But now i had this problem, the phone was stuck in the bootlogo!
I tried to enter the recovery mode, it didn't work (Volume Up + Home + Power).
Then i tried to enter the download mode (Volume Down + Home + Power). This worked.
Then i tried to install the official firmware. I chose to install the newest firmware (I9505XXUEMKF 4.3). I downloaded it at sammobile model=GT-I9505&pcode=TNL#firmware
I used Odin 1.85, 3.07 and 3.09 on Windows 7 and Windows 8 with all the Samsung USB drivers installed. And also i used the Pit file CSB signed Fusion3 EUR 0325 V2.
The phone is still stuck in the boot screen. After a clean install and pass from odin, the s4 says: "Recovery booting". Recovery mode still not accessible.
When i flash my S4 with the latest CW-Autoroot or Philz Touch, the Phone says:
Recovery booting ....
Recovery is not enforcing seandroid
Warrenty Bit Set : Recovery
Download screen info:
ODIN MODE
Product Name: GT-I9505
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
Knox Kernel Lock: 0x0
Knox Warranty Void: 0x1
CSB-CONFIG-LSB: 0x30
Write Protection: Enable
eMMC BURST MODE enabled
Any help would be appreciated! I am willing to pay for the right solution.
1. Download a suitable kernel in tar.md5 format -> HERE
2. Download ODIN 3.09
3. Once installed, boot your phone in Download mode by pressing Vol Down+Home+Power together until you see a warning dialog. Press Vol UP to get into download mode.
4. Make sure ODIN is running, and NO KIES processes are running.
5. Connect your phone with USB cable to your PC.
6. In ODIN, you should see a COM port with yellow background.
7. Click the PDA/AP button ONLY.
8. Select the kernel file you downloaded.
9. Press Start and nothing else.
10. If everything went as expected, your phone should reboot after a while with a working Recovery.
11. Try now to install the firmware MKF u downloaded before (without selecting .pit file)
12. Tell me how it works :highfive:
I just followed your steps, one by one.
I have all the versions of Odin, so i used the Odin 3.09 this time, like you said.
I putt my phone in download mode and installed the kernel i downloaded from your link. Odin status: pass.

1- Install the firmware u had (without .pit file). The stock firmware have STOCK recovery that have to work (If u cant go to STOCK recovery follow the step 2)
2- Flash this file with ODIN: HERE
3- Do the same process of post #12

Just did this. Now i tried it with the I9505XXUEMJ7 (Non brandend NL).
Guess what? Recovery booting....
Is my phone dead?
So basically it comes to this:
- When flashed stock firmware:
Recovery booting....
- When flashed custom firmware:
Recovery booting....
- When flashed stock firmware + philz_touch, openrecovery-twrp or even with recovery-clockwork-touch :
Recovery booting....

I have T-mobile NL, but also with the T-mobile (I9505XXUEMKF) the recovery mode doesn't work, but Odin says Pass.
So i tried it also with NL Unbranded (I9505XXUEMJ7). I think this does not have any effect.
It's strange because before the screen replacement, the phone booted just fine (except i didn't have any screen). Now i have screen and no boot...
Edit:
What could be the problem?
- Bootloader?
- Some other error?

I have been trying to root my note 3 SM-N900 for several hours today and I am getting quite frustrated.

Here are the steps I have followed.
Enabled USB debugging.
Started Downloaded mode & connected to oden.
Tried to flash CMW recovery (ticked only "F.Reset Time" checkbox & added cmw file to AP).

Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
Reactivation Lock(KK) : ON
Secure Download : Enabled
KNOX Warranty void : 0
RP Swrev: A4
The program shows this:
Code:
<ID:0/003> recovery.img
<ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/003> FAIL!
<ID:0/003>
<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
Any ideas? Am I using the wrong Odin version? Or am I downloading the wrong recovery file ? Is my phone too up-to-date to be rooted? Any help is appreciated.Thanks.
1. ODIN : sh.st/cxfh7 - Odin3 v3.10.0.exe
2. CWM Recovery : sh.st/cxfvM - n900-cwm-recovery-6.0.5.0-kk(0812).tar
3. Samsung USB Drivers :sh.st/vHIqL
I used this video as a reference.

Thanks Rosli59564. Successfully rooted.

Dumb newb softbrick, Flashes dont take

got a little overzealous with some settings and made it so my phone doesn't boot past the Verizon screen. I wiped cache and didn't help, factory reset, didn't work. Tried to flash back to 0k3, finally tried to flash back to pb1. When I try pb1, it hangs at the samsung animation and when I go into recovery mode it still says system recovery is 0k3. Every rom I try to flash does not change that so I dont think my falshes are actually flashing. I'm using odin 3.10. I really just want a complete clean re-install, but cant seem to figure out how to get that to work. It's probably something very easy, but I cant find a thread that sounds 100% similar
So everything during Odin flashes looks normal, but it still doesn't take? This is very strange behavior.
Try using another USB cable/port, and if you have access to one, another computer.
Odin logs? Screenshots? Not really enough information. Maybe find a new .tar.md5?
Everything looks like it flashes normal. I've used the same files on a different device with same files and hardware and that's worked fine. It passes but when I reboot to softloader it's still ok3

Its not something I've ever set and I don thave an account with Samsung. Would Odin report a "Passed" flash if it were set? I guess I'm screwed if it did get activated somehow, right?

What is your CID? 15 or 11
Having trouble getting adb commands to work. Can only seem to get it recognized if I go into "apply update from ADB" and then its only sideloaded and flashboot just "waits for device." is their another way I can get that info without being able to boot the device up fully?

Okay, so download finished and I applied it, had to reboot several times but it did come up and is now on PD1. So I guess now my question is there a way to root right from where I am, or do I have to downgrade

j7 pro cannot flash neither BL nor CSC --- AP and CP are OK

Hello
My J730G/DS was stuck in a bootloop. It wouldn't charge, and on connecting the cable it would show the Samsung-android-white-on-black and do a brief vibration, and twelve seconds later shut down and restart that.
I downloaded J730G Firmwares from sammobile.com. At one point I could flash everything in odin as PASS, but the bootloop stuck.
Then I flashed TWRP, and a new error-on-cyan appearead.
Now the phone doesnt bootloop, the screen flashes white once and goes of. I can activate odin when plugging in the cable, and it goes directly to "downloading" without pressing the up button
(Edit: I am using Odin 3.13)

The phone got into the boot loop after a screen replacement. Before the replacement it was "ok" but with a broken screen after a fall

UPDATE: in a weird cyan-only screen that I have for recovery I get text feedback when flashing in odin
A) Flashing Flashing TWRP throws "Custom Binary (RECOVERY) Blocked by FRP Lock
B) While AP and CP are always flashable, BL and CSC mostly fail and sometimes they pass.
***
Edit: Well, after trying some many times, I declare the mobo as dead. BL flashing fails almost everytime, phone won't take a charge, and there is no stock recovery.

You're probably just flashing the wrong firmware. You need to post a screen shot of the screen after flashing with Odin.

Did you have a similar issue with your phone? not charging and on bootloop?
