I'm having an issue where S6 edge shows a green screen with a white exclamation mark. the message says "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software". I tried doing this but the software reports that the device is not compatible so nothing shows up.
I have Odin 3.12 but not sure where to find the flash files to restore the device.

@FreshIce21 post how you fixed it, for those that may have this trouble in the future..
Went into download mode and flashed stock. I thought I couldn't get into download mode so that's y I panicked, sorry.
so i got my hands on a s6 edge plus live demo unit. so i decided to root it but that failed, then i installed a custom rom and it worked. so i tried to install xposed so i booted my phone into recovery mode but i had an error message that said about the frp lock, but now when i boot my phone it keeps booting to recovery mods and i can't boot it normally. so i searched the internet and found nothing, so i tried myself but i got my phone in an akward situation now... when i boot it up i immedtiatly get a screen saying "an error has occurred while updating the device software. use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch pc software". i tried that but it said my device wasn't compatible and even with Kies and Kies 3 i had the same message. and when flash anything with odin even the stock files it says it failed and my phone says that frp lock thingy again... so can anyone help me please because i really want that phone to keep...
Hello, i got Frp lock text, tried going to download mode and flashing a stock firmware, when my phone goes halfway throught it restarts and goes into download mode, now it messed up my boot and stuff and it only shows that "An error has occured while updating the device software.
Use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch pc software.
I can't flash it, it keeps rebooting, please help, thank you.
Use kies 3 and under tools select "software upgrade" put in your serial number and model then follow the steps it should work.
Make sure you don't grab or touch the phone when connected to pc because Odin is finicky like that.
Hello I tried installing a new firmware onto my s8 and while doing that I got the error md5 error invalid binary.
So I removed the md5. at the end of the file and then started it again leaving my phone witht he message "an error has occured while updating the device software"
When opening up smart switch It says that my device is unsupported.
When i try to go into donwload mode i get the same screen with an error occured while updating the device
So am I left with a piece of paper at the end?
Edit: just fixed it by loading the bootloader
Was flashing original firmware on to Samsung Galaxy Tab E SM-T377AZKAATT using Odin3 to bypass FRP lock, it said that flashing failed. I restarted device. Now I have an error page saying; "An error has occured while updating the software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software." Didn't back up device or have Smart Switch installed on PC before flash. Smart Switch says that device isn't compatible with Smart Switch. What can I do? Please help.

Well I flashed the original recover file with Odin3 and repaired the error screen. Now my device boots normally to the device setup. However now it is still Google FRP Locked. Can anyone provide me with how to bypass this. The device is running on Android 6.0.1 factory firmware. I have tried all my frp lock software I have found for my Windows 7 PC. Please help.
