HELP!!! My Galaxy S7 Edge got Bricked! - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hello everyone,
My device got bricked since I flashed it with Odin yesterday, and now even I re-flash using official firmware, it failed as well……
The model of my phone showing in Samsung official site is G935-P (Sprint version), But that shows on download mode is G935U, maybe the eBay seller had flashed it with G935U firmware…
What version of firmware should I download to recover the OS now? And what could I do to Un-brick my device? Someone who could give me some advice or assistance? Thank you all!

Try Smart Switch. It will automatically download the correct firmware for you.

Hmmmmm what update were you trying to flash in odin and i would check the back of your phone bc it should say exactly what model it is (935x) just to be sure then flash the LASTEST firmware to get yourself up and running then if you want Ufirmware go ahead flash that

Thanks, I've tried Smart switch, but it doesn't work, fortunately, it's resolved by flashing the latest G935U firmware

HELP! Stuck with AT&T Firmware on my SM-935P

Please help! I succesfully flashed my SM-935P with the nougat version of T-mobile at first. I had some issues connecting to my carrier's 3g network (it doesnt recognizes it) and for that reason I tried a different version on nougat, in this case AT&T but ended with the same problem (Phone recognizes 4g and 2g network, but no 3g).
I'm trying to revert back to stock on my SM-935P and downloaded rom PK1 from Sprint. When I try to use Odin, it gives me and error saying FAIL! SHA256 is invalid.
Can someone tell me how to get pass this? THANKS!

SHA256 Invalid error when flashing unlocked firmware to unlocked S8

Hello,
I flashed my factory unlocked Samsung Galaxy S8 with the Verizon carrier firmware awhile back in order to gain some carrier features. Since then I have gotten a new device and want to flash my S8 back to the unlocked firmware. Flashing to the Verizon firmware was uneventful, but trying to flash it back to the factory unlocked XAA U1 firmware always results in a SHA256 Invalid error right after I click Start in Odin. I've tried the Prince Comsy version as suggested on a few threads, but it just gives a failed to write error. I have also tried another firmware version download (from Updato), different versions of Odin, and different PCs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Anyone?
Still haven’t been able to find a fix for this. Tried with a patched version of Odin to bypass the SHA256 check, but it’s giving me a different error. I’ve attached photos of the exact error messages below. Surely someone here knows something about this?
download latest firmware
its maybe because you are flashing old file with v1 bootloader

Already using the latest from Updato. Thanks though.

Well, you were pretty close. For anyone who is interested, the issue I’ve discovered is that the current Verizon firmware has bootloader v4 on it, and the latest U1 firmware only goes up to bootloader v3. Looks like I’ll just have to wait it out.

Yes, I was getting that error because the unlocked firmware I was trying to flash had an older boot loader than the Verizon firmware that was on the phone. Had to wait until an updated version of the unlocked firmware was uploaded.

I don’t quite remember, I sold that phone soon afterwards. It has something to do with the name of the firmware, I’m sure Google could help you there.

My S7 Edge was FRP Locked because of FORTNITE!!!

Hello guys I really need your help!
I had a Nougat stock rom on my S7 Edge and when Fortnite was released I installed it but it was so laggy and asked me to update to the new version of android. So I found a custom rom that was perfect was called "Black Pearl" S9 ported to S7
then I opened fortnite but it seemed like the rom was rooted or something fortnite asked me to turn of OEM lock so I did so and since then I got the message " Custom binary blocked by FRP lock.
so now I can't figure what to do, I am installing a stock rom with odin but it keeps saying FAIL! FAIL! everytime maybe it's because of turning off OEM or something.. I don't really know what to do now! HELP!
Help me please!
FRP lock does not block official firmware flashing through odin.
It just prevents custom firmware from being installed.
You have to flash official firmware its the only option, choose the correct region when you are downloading the firmware.
If you don't know what region your original phone firmware was then use samsung smart switch to emergency reset the phone.

You definitely have chosen the wrong firmware, or you are using a wrong version of Odin.

Have you tried a recovery flash using Samsung Smart Switch PC App? At least you will be back up and running even if not on the firmware variant you want
Make sure u got the right files ... try different cable or different pc and make sure drivers are installed correctly ... finally download latest Odin ...
