Help Please. I was updating my phone and know I'm messed. Phone is stuck in download mode with Firmware upgrade encountered and issue. Tried to use Kies to fix it but it just downloads a bit then hangs there and does nothing. Tried to Odin 4.3 stock but the Knox bootloader won't let me. Any advice besides using it as a paperwait.
Update:
Fixed the issue. Firmware is I337MVLUEMK6 .Just downloaded stock firmware and used Odin 1.85 and used upgrade bootloader and placed file in bootloader section only.
First off give some more details. What were you updating to when the problem arose? Which 4.3 were you trying to flash in Odin? I saw another individual who needs the mk2 Odin file. If someone is able to provide it I would say that is your best bet for now assuming you were already on a non-MDL firmware, which I would gather is the case.
Also, XDA does not condone any type of fraud. Take that talk elsewhere

So they other night i tried rooting my gs7 edge AT&T version.. Found a tutorial online and flashed a file via odin. And upon rebooting ended up freezing on the AT&T boot logo. which seemed to a common problem after reading the comments. The only way was to do a factory reset which i did and got the phone working again. But now the phone is extremely sluggish it lags doing the simplest tasks. Now i want to start over and flash the stock firmware via odin but not sure what files to flash something about pi2 and the BL. Can some one point out to me what is the latest firmware i should be installing. Just trying to go back to stock here.

You still have the eng kernel installed. Go to the AT&T forum for the S7 and you will see what others have done.

Update: After serveral attempts, i finaly got it running a CFW, i had to flash the OFFICAL firmware, and leave download and reenter it before the phone even boots and then flash TWRP, and i installed magiskmanager and everythings looking alright from here, i'll update if i have any problems.
3rd update, i offical cannont find the firmware this phone was on, it WAS SIM-FREE when i bought it, now i installed this version every app crashes on launch, am pretty lost myself. anyone know a way i can get or know the Very first firmware?
Considering i've got literly no help, this thread can be closed, i installed some random stock firmware and i suppose i will have to put up with broken settings menu and a barly working keyboard for now.

If you are US flash the smg935u as it works for every carrier
I tried flashing a patched kernel to fix Magisk, but it looks like it was built on an older firmware and it bricked my device. I looked online and tried to find a flashable zip to return to full stock and start over, but the only one I can find is too old and is failing to flash in RSD Lite. I don't know what firmware version my device had before I started flashing, so I'm looking for anything that's compatible with the recent security updates.
My device is able to get to Fastboot, so I think it can still be saved. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Just in case my answer didn't go through. That's the newest I could find.
Thanks. My device has come back from the dead!
