Bricked boot.img, but got Stock Recovery - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hello everyone!
So, after I replaced my SM-G935v with SM-G935FD I decided to root it, but accidentally installed a wrong boot.img using ODIN.
I can not access the comforting Download Mode with three-buttons to re-flash to the correct boot.img file, but I can access the Stock Recovery, and it can flash ZIP from ADB and SD.
I'm currently downloading ROM files for my S7 Edge to flash them using ODIN, but since I've only got access to Recovery, could some of expertise help me on what the hell I should do?
I'm looking for a way to make a flashable ZIP out of the boot.img I'm downloading, but I can't find anything. Is this a good plan, and if it is, how can I achieve it?
Should I proceed to make a USB Jig?
Can I do something like this?
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
I've just bought this phone for eight hours, and I unfortunately can't return it to the seller!
This is what I get when I try the three-button combo:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

TWRP can flash img............, but I don't think stock recovery can do it..... because you need find a signed kernel and ram disk....... and there is no fastboot in samsung phone.... you should try kies..... maybe it can save you.... and idk about JIG

[Q] [HTC][HERO][GSM][ISSUE]How to flash?

Hi Guys,
i have a very specific issue.
Its HTC hero which been upluged before finishing official upgrade to froyo.
So, where is the problem?
Hero cant boot, all the time just stay stucked on "HERO" boot animation. The problem is, that it was upgrade from stock Eclair to stock Froyo. They didn't have any root, or recovery (CWM, RA, nandroid)...
The phone can be started in hbot, fastboot, stock recovery.
HBOT->
I've found this > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=575448 < but i think its need a function hero to set up setup.
So there is no way i think
Fastboot->
I've try to flash recovery with AR, CWM via
"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
but only get this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Stock recovery->
I've also try to flash via "apply update.zip from SD card" from this
http://www.modaco.com/topic/291942-22jan-stock-roms-radios-in-updatezip-format-for-gsm-hero/
every single file crashed "E:Verification failed!"
I'm such a big noob, but is there any way which i didn't try? Something like flash CWK recovery mode via update.zip? Every idea can help.
Thanks
Do you have your hero drivers set up on your PC?
Also, when flashing recovery.img using fastboot, please rename your clockworkmod.recovery.blablabla.img in recovery.img and then try to flash again.
as i thought so
prntscr.com/aun85 <its a link, but i'm newbie here, so i have a constraints
but its exactly the same as the file was named clockwokrmod.....img
Driver should be ok (get from android-cellphones com)
Q: how can i access the adb? In device manager a use this driver. But in cmd "adb devices" cannot find my hero. But idk if it helpfull.
Sorry for my english
When your phone is plugged in your windows PC (in hboot mode), check that the driver installed is called My HTC (in device manager), then download the latest RUU under HTC Hero support site (not the 2.1 one) and run the program, it will erase everything, but if it is successful it will install the 1.5 system to your phone, and you can start over

Problem was solved via hboot mode. Thx guys

Meizu pro 5 have rooted rom but lost recovery - phone can boot pls help!

Hi
i was stupid enough to unlock my bootloader and flash recovery, then reflash back latest meizu stock via twrp , and flashing again the twrp recovery image,
i don't why, but the first init of the rom update ****ed my recovery up and now i lost recovery (even the stock, the phone just booting to the rom)
fastboot oem unlock isn't possible because i'm on locked bootloader rom.
i tried to flash the recovery via rashr with the backup i made and i can't becuase of busybox, i guess it's because the bootloader lock
is there any script or way that i can stock recovery back?
actually if lost the rom i lost my phone....
please help!
UPDATE: STILL WITHOUT SUCCESS TO FLASH THE RECOVERY BACK
i tried adb shell flashing, susscessed to flash system image , but via this method ( dd - of)
https://forum.meizufans.eu/topic/25...ional-firmware-on-your-chinese-mainland-meizu

HELP! Zenfone 2 Laser (ZE550KL) bricked!

Hello guys! Happy xmas! I've tryed install the CM13 in my smartphone and i had a problem during the install. The cellphone just start in fastboot mode and i lost my TWRP. I can't install any custom recovery and any another custom rom. For now, i'm installing UL-Z00L-WW-1.17.40.1531-user firmware and this problem appear:

Can u guys help me?
What I would do:
step 1
make a FULL partition dump, backup all files including modem modemst1 modemst2, which contain the important imei specific to your phone
step 2
charge phone battery to full, download all available versions of updates from asus, copy all to sdcard, install/update one by one, until the latest. This ensures you get the latest modem firmwares.
step 3
root, unlock the phone
step 4
complete step 1 again, yes!!!! it must be done.
step 5
install custom recovery (twrp), then install cm13
VERY IMPORTANT: backup always and frequently, flashing Asus updates or custom rom can easily corrupt the EFS partitions (modem, fsg, modemst1, modemst2)
if u have computer, then adb sideload the firmware file
select update from adb
command - adb sideload filename.zip
be confirmed that the adb drivers are installed for ur mobile
So, guys, i tryed this methods but does't work :/

https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/help/how-to-bypass-frp-galaxy-s7-possibly-6-t3622126
a brilliant method.
I think basically what it does is provide two connections to the phone at the same time, one via Odin, and the other via direct ADB.
Step one is to flash a Universal boot loader, which is unlocked or can be unlocked via ADB. Now with the locked boot loader out of the way, on to getting rid of FRP.
Step two is run the. bat file which deletes the Persistence file, which is the Google encrypted setup file/FRP file. BOOM, FRP gone.
Then either stay on the Universal bootloader, or go back and flash the OEM.
Brilliant!

Head over to the OP's post and ring him up. I think after the first flash, as I get it, you have to somehow run the .bat file in adb, It is the .bat file that deletes the Persistence file/partition, where, as he explains, the FRP (Google enctypted file) is held. Once that is out of the way, FRP should be gone, then flash back your stock BL, or leave it on the U (Universal) BL if you wish?
That's my understanding. I don't think the OP's been around his post for several months. We are hoping he returns to answer and clarify some questions.

help me

thanks i solved by flashing the original stock firmware again
To root your device, start by flashing TWRP, which you can find here. The TWRP .tar file goes in the AP slot of Odin.
Once you have TWRP installed, you should be able to flash Magisk, which you can find here.
how installa TWRP, i have error
this trying to put... twrp-3.7.0_9-0-a20.img
I didn't notice that OEM LOCK is ON.
You must unlock your bootloader to flash custom images.
ok i haveTWPR done
but after reload sisytem ...
this is very strange, for an old phone, I don't understand, I've never had all these problems ...
i m crazy
Did you flash vbmeta as well as TWRP? This might be the right file
I have to try again ,,,, but I still haven't figured out if anyone has been successful in rooting this device ,, I sansumg told everyone to do it
then, then yesterday I reflexed the original stok, now so I first do a TWPR and THEN this file that you are providing me?
yesss done good
now I need more help, I put TPWR then The file repairs vbmeta ,, ...., but it tells me that I don't have root permissions yet
do i have to give up?
Did you get a working twrp? Try booting into recovery (twrp) and then flash Magisk-v25.2.apk. If that works, reboot into system and install Magisk-v25.2.apk as an app. Then start the app and it will tell you whether you have root. If it doesn’t work, I don’t know what to do next. You may need to have the Magisk apk on a usb drive or microSD card for it to be visible in twrp.
the problem is that I put the TWPR gives me an error
vbmeta ,, then I put your tar file (
vbmeta_disabled.tar
2 KB · Views: 1) the phone starts, but in recovery I don't see TWPR the android menu looks normal
from this menu I tried to install the magic, but the installation fails
When you install twrp from Odin, disable automatic reboot from Odin options. Once you see that the flashing is completed, reboot the phone by holding vol- and power for 7 seconds, then immediately hold vol+ and power to boot into recovery. Otherwise twrp will get overwritten with stock recovery and you have to try again.
I am thinking that by reviewing the file (vbmeta_disabled) it overwrites the TWPR that I first put ,, in the revvr mod it always starts me with the classic menu
[email protected]
but every time I install a TWPR I have to insert after the file (vbmeta_disabled) because otherwise the phone always restarts with vbmeta error in download mod
Use 7-zip and add vbmeta.img from the tar above to the twrp tar and flash that
no work,,stay that way
