Hi
Own a galazy s7 edge g935f (exynos). Was trying to flash stock rom as I was facing a few issues and i think I flashed the wrong firmaware by accident. I think my phone is now bricked as I am stuck at the 'samsung galaxy edge. welcome to android' screen. I can't get into download mode (bootloop) or recovery (no response) and I'm starting to panic. Is there any chance that once the phone's battery has been drained I will be able to boot into download mode and flash the correct stock firmware?
If not does anybody have any suggestions.
Any help would be appreciated I'm freaking out!

Really uncommon not to get into download mode. Keep the 3 buttons held for at least 20 seconds - it's sometimes taken even longer for me (assuming you haven't already done so).

This happened to me when I first tried to root my s7 edge. I googled and apparently the file i used was for the s6 edge and not the s7 edge. The post above is what I did, don't let go of the volume down, home and power off buttons. You will eventually get in to download mode.

I have a AT&T Galaxy S7 (Qualcomm SM-G930A) and I cant seem to get it to successfully boot any firmware I flash on it. After Flashing, it shows the att splash screen then turns off with a unending "Charging" symbol. It all started after a damaged update that kept saying plug into Smart Switch to Use advanced Recovery, (Smart Switch Didn't even see it was messed up). What do I do? Haven't had that long and would greatly appreciate help, I'm completely lost on this site
if you still have warranty go to the AT&T store if theres not custom logo
You remember the last software you had on it? Could you try using Odin with that software and seeing what happens? (Will wipe everything on your phone)

Did you try flashing the nougat odin files. If not, Find the nougat Odin files on here and flash that using Odin. That is the latest update for our phones and that should work.

Try a hard reset from buttons...probably ur sticker bexoz u downgraded
Samsung has warned already that it's not safe to downgrade after updating to 7.0. Since the bootloader gets upgraded it will cause problems. If you have good skill in software you can manage.

I've upgraded to 6.0.1 to 7.0 then downgrade again to 6.0.1 many times on my G935F without encountering any problems. I prefer MM with Xposed better than 7.0.
If phone doesn't boot after upgrade or downgrade, I just do factory reset/wipe data in Recovery.
But because the phone doesn't have a detachable battery, to go to Recovery you have to press Vol down + Power + Home first then when screen goes black you have to immediately press Vol up + Power + Home buttons to go to Recovery.

have you solve this issue? i'm facing the same problem...please help...
Downgrade is possible without repartioning? Any advanced member guide pls. If you are flashing files separately, you will need the pit file too to downgrade and if you are flashing with full rom image in single tar file containing pit file , then its ok , i think in major os change partition table changes , so any advanced member opinion about downgrading process is needed.
