Hey all trying to help a friend of mine out, his AT&T s7 is stuck in a bootloop that just shows "recovery booting...." Can't boot into the os, but I can access download mode. Any ideas? Not sure what happened to kick it into this, my buddy isn't too tech smart to be playing with settings and files so my guess is as good as yours as to why it's in this bootloop.

Sidenote my s7 edge is BQE1, shouldn't the s7 be on the same?

Got me in this one. That firmware should boot it. I know there is a newer one or now but it's the same bootloader. If it's passing odin and flashing then I'm not sure what else could be going on.

It's hanging at the samsung screen after odin rebooted it.?
Wait for about 5 - 10 EARTH minutes.
Also make sure sure that the file you got is about 1.5GB before extraction.

ok, that happened before with my E4GT. Odin wouldn't read it though then, but I will give it a try
Here's a thread with more download options too.
I had two phones that had issues and took me some real patience to get the download (took a very long time!) then to got through what it sounds like you are.
I got patient, pulled the batteries and let them sit while I made lunch and ate. Put batteries back in and started process again. Then when the samsung logo just 'hung' I said 'F it' and just waited. Eventually moved on to Yellow screen and hung there, but I just walked away and came back a pretty long while - for this A type, and it was at lock screen!

I tried that as well...... Nothing.. This is CrAzY. I wonder if I can take this into Sprint. I have stock recovery now, no flash count it just says samsung galaxy s4 and thats all it will do. Maybe say I held off on the MF9 OTA and finally decided to do it and this is what I was left with. Also I really appreciate your help man! I am now trying an MDC tar in hopes I can just OTA back up. Something HAS to work.

Odin Restore with AT&T SM-G930A G930AATT1APB5_User_Binary files NOT WORKING!!!!!!!!!!
Sooooooooo tried everything to restore my S7 AT&T SM-G930A with the "Supposed" G930AATT1APB5_User_Binary files that are floating around the threads. I'll answer the question "Why are you doing that?" first.
well because i am a flashaholic that gives ZERO **cks and is pissed off that this bootloader is locked and has OCD about flashing S*it. soooooo...... whatever. And yes.... I KNOW I shouldn't have bought a branded phone. But I did soooooooo..... Rant over, anyway, Figured I could try to flash the restore shizz just in case i ever needed it for some drastic reason or Just because i just wanted to flash ****. but to no avail Odin is giving this error on the phone itself while in Odin Mode, **Odin protocol version error!** tried it in Odin Mode with oem unlock switched on and tried it switched off. Nope same error. tried in the bootloader screen also with same settings, Nope same error. Sooooooooo not sure what is going on except maybe it has to be something with the lockdown of the phone. Just thought i would drop this info down here and see what happens.
Peace OUT!

Why are you trying to go back to pb5 when there are two newer FWs out? APF2 and APG1. I think I remember that people weren't able to restore to pb5 after updating to apf2. Could definitely be wrong about that tho.
Anyways, pg1 has wifi calling and advanced messaging.

I found out the fix by myself. I don't understand why nobody thought of it but here it is. All I did was reboot into recovery and factory reset the phone and my phone booted up like normal without root.
---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 PM ----------
Now I'm trying to reboot it and I flashed the boot tar for it that I flashed in the first place to achieve root but everytime I download superuser it keeps force closing it...what am I doing wrong now lol. Like I must be the most unluckilest guy on the planet. This thing is a nightmare. Am I missing something after refreshing the rooted g935x boot .tar?

I've scoured the net all day and I cannot find a way to fix my new tablet. I thought I had it on http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/general/link-original-firmware-images-tab-4-7-t2978495 but I got a 404 error. Does anyone have that file?
I had forgotten that you could not do a permanent root on 5.1.1 and used kingo root on it. Now i'm in deep trouble. My new unlocked (once at&t) tablet is boot looped and it has the custom icon, which means once the seller sees that they will know that I tried to root it if they are techy enough. So I must at least get rid of the custom before I can send it off to them for a replacement. (I might be able to blame it on a kid but I don't know how that will fly) I've tried kies, odin and everything else I can find but haven't be able to fix it. So I was hoping that someone here could advise me. I don't care about the info on it, that's replaceable but I really want to know how to fix my tablet. I can get it into recovery mode and download mode but it's stuck on the at&t logo. Can anyone help me? Thanks
From now on I'll leave lollipop alone

I wound up returning mine to the seller....they accepted my explanation and agreed to RMA it. I wont touch this next one, I learned my lesson. Samsung loves to lock the boot loader, I'm lucky it didn't happen to my old note 4 when kingroot unlocked it. It's a shame we cant find or make a good flashable image for odin. Then it would be safe to play. But I know nothing about android except how to use it.

After you fix it. Root with Kingroot only and you will be fine. Then search for triangle away online, you can get it free. Open that up and click to reset counter. That will remove the custom lock that you are seeing. Every time you reboot, you will lose root, just reroot with Kingroot and you will be fine.

Glad to help out. It is safe to root it with Kingroot but after you reboot, root will be lost. Just reroot with Kingroot and you will be rooted again without a problem. Ive been working on a way to maintain root but no luck yet. Just don't replace Kingroot with SuperSU or you will brick it again but at least it can be fixed again if you do brick.
Link please
Link to the firmware for SM-T377A mine is bricked!
Bought another s7 edge off Craigslist. Everything was fine and legit and phone was reset but guy left the secure boot lock on so (dumbly) I factory reset it from the recovery menu and upon boot got hit with the FRP. Texted the guy and said he would help me out when he got to his house (~hour away) but now no response(have screenshots to prove it). Not trying to be fraudulent in anyway I just want to be able to use the phone I paid for. Phone wasn't stolen as I require sellers show me proof of purchase or actual use of the phone
Well your only choice at this point is to contact the guy

Already tried, numerous times. Now he's just ignoring me. I've seen that maybe ODIN would work?
just search it via youtube.. you will find the solution.

Tried ODIN the stock firmware using AP and BL but still asked for account upon booting up. Should I try with diff firmware?
There's a twrp file you can delete manually. I don't remember what it is, but I found it on xda for note 4 or note 5 a year or so ago.

Tried the method using the Real 2.0 app that made a fake call and went to the browser and such. Got up until it I had to find the google account manager in the shortcut maker app and found the account manager apps but not the one that actually asked me to log in. Think of another one?

I remember that too but that was for screen locks if I'm not mistaking. I have FRP blocking me
Not sure then. I did find a link for the exact issue just now by Google search of xda. Good luck.

kind of hesitate to post it here so i pm you out the link... i have test it once successfully...
I am interested in how this can be done with the latest firmware updates. Kind of hate to have an S7 brick.
