Need help with possibly bricked phone. - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

I tried following a root guide which put me into a bootloop (It'd flash the galaxy logo, turn off, and flash again)
I've found a lot of things saying i need to re-install the stock firmware, but it also says i needed OEM unlock to be off.
This was a factory reset phone, and I was following the directions on the page, so i didn't turn OEM unlock off.
Is there a way for me to turn OEM unlock off without having to be in android, like through adb, or is this phone done for?
androidexplained.com/galaxy-s7-root-verizon-att-t-mobile-sprint This is the page i was using
I'm using odin to flash the Stock Image, the files I have, have all failed except for the CP one. All the others say FAIL! (Auth) and the Samsung says "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [system] Fused 3 > Binary 1"

i9505 Softbrick Odin flash is failing [Resolved]

Hi All, I'm in desperate need of some help. For the past few days I've been going down the road of getting the latest Phoenix ROM working properly and I've been taking a step backwards with everything I've attempted, now I'm stuck at a soft-brick stage on my i9505
My current issue:
I can get into download mode. Not recovery, definitely not boot, only download mode.
Odin correctly identifies the phone but attempts to flash to the phone fail. It spits out the following:
Code:
<ID:0/005> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/005> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
The phone then shows the progress bar completely stalled either at what looks like 99% for small writes (Like my attempt to flash TWRP), or at what looks like 1% (when I flash a full firmware). When I get home tonight I'll list the codes on the screen when it does it but I see a "START", and a "BBA" (I think), but I never get to the "END" command.
Has anyone experienced something similar?
What got me to this stage:
1. Flashed new Phoenix rom v10 upgrading from v9.4.
2. On sleep the cell dropped out constantly and so did WiFi so someone suggested I install a WiFi fix.
3. Installed the modem for XXUGNJ8 (I think). Combined package for LTE and GSM.
4. Every time the modem activated the phone had problems. Locked up when I open the phone app, reboot if someone called me, no sound when calls did "work", and the phone never sleeps and chews the battery after a simple text message.
5. Attempted to revert modem to XXUEMK4 (the other Galaxy S4 still on stock Android 4.3 had this modem). FAILED!
At this point my phone said the last firmware update failed and I was effectively in a softbrick scenario. I can still get into download mode.
6. Attempted to flash Optus carrier firmware 4.4.2 XXUGNH6. This failed, but the download screen changed now and says Samsung Official Firmware on it.
All other attempts to write to the phone have failed.
I've tried a different USB cable.
I've tried a different version of Odin.
I've tried flashing TWRP.
I tried installing Heimidall but have yet to get it working. (Visual studio runtime issues).
I installed Keis just to waste a bit of time.
I tried reinstalling drivers.
I just can't seem to write to the phone. Has anyone experienced anything similar and figured out a fix? When I get home tonight I'll post some pictures / screenshots of the errors I'm getting.
Cheers.
Are you trying to flash an older version of 4.4.2 that you had downloaded earlier?
Flash the LATEST 4.4.2 version for your phone.
"If someone helps, never forget to hit thanks ?"
Latest for my carrier? Or the latest version of stock there is?
By the way for the record here's some more info. Attached is a screenshot of my Odin after it fails. This was after attempting to install Philz recovery.
My phone has the following on the screen:
Code:
Odin MODE
Product Name: GT-i9505
Current Binary: Custom *note this said Samsung Official yesterday
System Status: Custom
Knox Kernel Lock: 0xfffffffc
Knox Warranty Void: 0xfffffffc
CSB-Config-LSB: 0x30
Write Protection: Enable
eMMC Burst Mode: Enable
and then the bits from the actual download attempt:
Code:
START [224, 1448]
BAR [240,1440]
That's it. The progress bar is sitting at what looks like the 99% mark.
No sure if this will help but I solved my issues by running odin as admin and make sure usb debugging is ticked.
I don't see you tried a different usb port/different pc.
For using heimdall your don't need the frontend interface. You only need to make sure you use the correct drivers for heimdall and then use the terminal to flash the recovery.
"heimdall flash --recovery recovery.img --no-reboot" (it's case sensitive.)
Ok success.
I used the i9505 pit file and re-parition and with that I can successfully flash twrp or philz recovery. Which brought up an error saying non-official firmware detected.
I tried flashing XXUGNJ8 downloaded straight from Samfirmware but it failed. I tried it both with and without repartitioning.
So I tried twrp again and failed.
Then I tried XXUGNJ8 again and it failed but got all the way to the image stage.
I read about swapping cables, drivers, USB ports, well I did all of that to no avail.
Finally I took the entire mess to work and used a new computer there, fresh drivers, fresh everything, and everything worked just fine. I have no idea what's wrong with my computer, but it was not happy.
Thank god these phones are hard to brick. I'm willing to bet my USB connection dropped out while flashing which caused the issue to begin with.

Rooted My Phone And Now its stuck bootloop

I rooted my S7 Edge T-Mobile on christmas installed supersu, exposed, etc. then on the 4th none of my apps were opening properly i decided to restart my phone to see if that would fix the problem, nope my phone wont go past the t-mobile logo i have tried flashing stock rom but i am stick in dm verity verification when i got into recovery. Please Help i keep getting a whole bunch of odin errors and am seriously stuck. I dont think i can flash stock anymore i get the dm verity verification which when i looked up people were saying that it wont downgrade.
ODIN errors:
Auth (fail)
NAND write start - this is the most common one
When it fails on odin, this shows up on my phone:
sw rev check fail aboot fused 4 > binary 2 sometimes the numbers change to 3 and 1.
Where did you get your firmware tarballs?
Maybe download firmware again from sammobile.com do an md5sum check.
Have you tried different USB cables through different USB ports in your computer? Are you using factory USB?
Have you tried flashing with Heimdall instead of Odin?
Are you flashing all the proper AP, BL , CP, CSC files?
If you can get into download you should be able to fix this.

S7 Stuck on "Erasing" After failed ODIN

Today I was trying to revert back to stock firmware and flashed the files in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s7/how-to/firmware-stock-sm-g930a-ph1-odin-files-t3458890
The flash failed, on the phone it game an eMMC error that says:
SW REV CHECK FAIL : [about]Fused 4 > Binary 2
[1] eMMC write fail: ABOUT
No other flashes were working after that even other stock images I tried. I held down the power button and I am now stuck with a blue android "erasing" screen that pops up every few seconds followed by some commands that go by too fast to see.
Is my phone dead? is there anything I can do?
EDIT: Wasn't going into boot loader properly and was able to flash new firmware

Hi all,
My J530Y oem unlock didnt show, rmm state prenormal, cant do anything to root or do more than stock users do basically.
ive been aimlessly crying for help and waiting if there's any update..ive been searching for this answer from July 2018.
So here's why i can work it out:
1. i read this thread just today, and realized there's some miracle called miracle box
2. i used miracle box to "RESURFACE" the OEM Unlock toggle in developer mode (3 times i fail, realized i have to use the newest stock rom of 8.1, indonesian region you can find it here) using odin until i make the oem unlock re-appear (this stock firmware is just temporary so at the end i replaced it with custom rom Breeze+)
3. im using twrp from here, countless time failure until i realized i should really read the guide to flash the twrp in odin, notice no7 that you have to untick auto reboot. read through and it should work!
4. last problem in twrp was it cant mount data partition, the solution is here, notice the faq part
5. so TWRP done, the next thing i do was installing these files in TWRP from OTG >RMM State Lock fix, and no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip
6. Last, im installing Breeze+ Also in TWRP and still using OTG. (i prefer using this because its prerooted with magisk, which is nice because i need the Intune Hider4magisk so i still can work freely with rooted device
7. I never "REBOOT SYSYEM" from step 4 to 6, since i tried and just realized need to install the custom rom at no6.
Might this help for my fellow J530Y users whose had the same problem as me.
Thank you all.

You have to wait for a week to flash twrp. Its a part of the Oreo update that the bootloader remains locked for 7 days

See last post mine on TWRP thread. I've posted a solution to this.
If you have your phone briked you can upload stock rom from odin. Take care about the version, you can't downgrade.

Report below => text form post @Renquer0 (thanks)
About TWRP => Error on twrp installing any zip rom, magisk or kernel
When ENCRYPTION message is showed when booting DON'T CLICK IN RESET.
You need to enable data partition (guide quoted) and then install Magisk,
RMM State Bypass and no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0 files in that order.

This is the entire quoted post:

For everyone that can't mount or format data (this f**k up the entire rooting process) you can follow this:
sharneil said:
While formatting device using TWRP re., device failed and showed me something like "unable to mount /data or system"
This happens because your recovery is unable to read internal storage. You need to do some small steps.
Steps
1) Reboot into TWRP recovery
2) go to " Wipe "
3) then " Advanced Wipe "
4) Choose " data " and tap on " Repair or Change File System "
5) Then tap " Change File System "
You will see text as ext4 infront of ' file system '
6) Change it to "EXT2" by tapping and swiping.
7) Once its done, change it to "EXT4" again.
(if some detail doesn't match after step 5, don't worry... Change file system path to something else then and to default again.)
DONE !
Then go back and try formatting ( or any other work ). It should succeed.
This method worked for me where I was using Redmi Note 4 with custom(Lineage) os and TWRP 3.2.3.0
If this doesn't work, then try once again or I will suggest you to install TWRP recovery again.
Thank you.

Maybe the OP can add it to the first post. This allowed to me to install TWRP and Magisk in my J5 Prime.

Hope it helps. In my case I couldn't format data partition in TWRP until I changed filesystem to EXT2 and EXT4.

Bricked S7 Edge?

Recently, I turned off developer options in my rooted S7 Edge (SM-G935FD). Idk if that is the cause, but after rebooting I got the error "Custom Binary Blocked by FRP Lock". I couldnt boot into my recovery (TWRP) either. I was running on Oreo btw. I watched some Youtube guides and apparently the solution was to flash stock rom. So... I flashed an Oreo Stock Rom on my phone via Odin. I thought that would solve my problem, but instead it made it worse. It didnt give me the Custom Binary Blocked by FRP lock error but my boot screen is stuck at the boot animation (not a bootloop). I could boot into the stock recovery tho. I tried a factory reset, that didnt make things better. I could also boot into download mode. I thought I made a mistake, so I flashed like 5-8 times with both CSC an Home_CSC. The result was the same, it would get stuck at the boot animation. I tried flashing TWRP via Odin too, but it said "Custom Binary (Recovery) blocked by FRP Lock". I tried sideloading that TWRP file to my device via ADB. It gave me an error too (I think "Cannot flash from external devices" or something like that) I thought flashing with Re-partition and Nand Erase On would solve my problem, so I tried that, but it didnt work. Im running on Binary 3 apparently. Is there anything I can do?

I still have the "FRP Lock: On" on download mode, so I tried bypassing FRP lock via binary 5 combination firmware and flashing a binary 7 stock firmware. This time, it doesnt get stuck at the boot animation, instead it redirects to a screen with an android face saying "Installing System updates". A few seconds later, it says "No command" with a dead android face. Then it reboots and the same thing happens. Basically a boot loop, but in a different way. I cant seem to boot to stock recovery either. The worst thing is that I cant even turn off the thing. I have to leave it loop for the entire day until its battery dies

That is what I literally did. I flashed a combination firmware, factory rested my entire phone, turned on developer options as well as allow usb debugging, attempted to reset FRP via Z3X Samsung Tool Pro and finally flashed a stock rom. And, the result is this. A bootloop with an android face dying. I did manage to enter a different screen by pressing volume up once along with pressing volume down and power button. It said "could not open recovery_because_no file directory" and had some more errors. The thing is....I made it worse at the first place. I could have flashed a room with binary 6 or lower, cuz at least the combination firmware would have been available to flash, but my stupid brain did not think of that. I flashed a binary 7 stock rom and there is no combination firmware with a binary of 7 or more. Which means, I will most likely get the "SW check fail Device: 7 Binary: 6 " error while flashing.

If the device is still entering download mode, install the recent version of stock for your device. Maybe that will solve your problem.

the "no such file or directory" error is due to either having had removed stock recovery in flashing the firmwares or the factory recovery corrupted due to likely the same reason. Just flash a revision 7 firmware for your phone and it will at least boot

I have literally flashed the latest stock rom for my device and my country which is G935FXXS7ESK8.
I am a bit confused tho...I am not sure if my device is SM-G935FD or SM-G935F. The download mode says SM-G935F...but this phone used to work with a SM-G935FD rom back in the days. Is this causing the problem most likely? And btw the repair shop said they cant fix it too

I am a bit confused tho...I am not sure if my device is SM-G935FD or SM-G935F. The download mode says SM-G935F...but this phone used to work with a SM-G935FD rom back in the days. Is this causing the problem most likely? And btw the repair shop said they cant fix it too

I am somehow relieved to know that someone else on this planet is on the same (EXACT) boat as me....this is what we get for messing around too much with our phone hum?
1 - After booting up my phone I get the blue background with a dead Android and "No Command" message
2 - I tried accessing recovery by pressing Power+Home+VolumeUp, but all I get is a black screen with a wall of code lines with "fail to open recovery_cause(No such file or directory)" at the beggining of the text.
3 - "No problem! I'll just flash TWRP with ODIN and install a custom ROM and be done with it!".
..NOPE! FRP(factory reset protection) is ON!!! I cannot install TWRP
4- I've tried to find a combination file with binary version 7...but looks like the internet doesn't seem to care about the good ol' number 7...All I can find is binary version 6.
What Im trying to do now is creating my own combination file binary version 7 (if that's even a thing...) from a stock firmware. But I'm not getting any luckier down this path.
Looks like we need a hero...:crying:

OMGGGGGGGG....Looks like I am not the only one. DAMN. Bro...tell me if you find a solution ok? Hopefully there is a way to solve this problem...there has to be one. And share your combination firmware after you finish it. Thank you very much

No luck over here friend...
Desperate times require desperate measures. Have you ever tried flashing combination files from different S7 Edge versions?
I can find files for the G935A with a revision 7 of the binary...Im thinking flashing it into my G935F and see what happens. I've read the risks associated with installing firmwares from other phone versions, but I'll have a paperweight either way.
I'll keep this thread updated.

Doesn't really matter if you have a F or FD. I'd say you flash the latest stock rom for G935F or FD(which ever is latest) for any country regardless. By this you should be able to boot and won't get any odin errors.

Can you provide me the link plz.
Turns out, its a hardware problem with the storage. Replacing the motherboard might be the solution I think. :/
I had solved my phone last day
At first u can flash ur phone to leatest stock rom. Then u have to turn of frp lock. Then u will able to boot up your phone. If u cant fix u can knock me on facebook. (If u r a z3x user). Bcoz u need z3x for bypass frp with ufs cable.
Im also using s7 edge.

Does it matter if I use the cracked version without box. And no, I dont have the ufs cable. Is there anything else I can do?
Hi guys, I have the exact same problem with my S7 edge from T-mobile (g935t). Odin will only accept for flash the latest rom and after flash it reboots but I get BSOD. I tried a pit file also from an old g935T rom which was android 6.0 and I managed to get into recovery for a moment and I did a factory reset/wipe cache but after reboot entered again in a black screen and the blue led was lit. I finally removed the battery to turn the phone off. I can still enter download mode but is there anything else I can do to resurrect the phone?
Samsung s7 edge (g935f)
Hi everyone , please am having issue of NO COMMAND and i cant boot into recovery. My oem is on so i cant install twpr neither. Am on binary u8. Please any solution to recover my phone?
Very very good new guys...yep you guessed it right. I was able to fix this problem.
How you may ask? Follow these steps
Note: Make sure you have enough battery. Lack of battery charge in my case caused alot of problems.
1. Download a U7 Rom for your SM-G935F or SM-G935FD
2. Extract the Rom as well as the AP
3. After you extract the AP, you will be greeted with boot.lz4.img , recovery.lz4.img , system.lz4.img & meta-data
4. Make a backup of recovery.lz4.img and meta-data just in case. Also, make a copy of boot.lz4.img and rename the copied one to recovery.lz4.img. Don't forget to delete the original recovery and meta-data
5. Now, you should be left with boot.lz4.img , (modified) recovery.lz4.img and system.lz4.img.
6. Now, download this https://www.mediafire.com/file/ah20ha869prdkkc/Autotar2.0_By_FixFirmwares.com.rar/file
7. Now, make a .md5 file that contains (modified) recovery.lz4.img and system.lz4.img
8. After you are done making that .md5, flash it along with CSC, CP and BL.
9. You should directly boot into your device, (if you do), charge your phone for a while if the battery is lower than 20%.
10. Then, go to the settings and enable OEM Unlock before doing ANYTHING
11. Then, reboot to download mode and flash TWRP
12. Download the no-verity-encryption.zip
https://zackptg5.com/android.php#disverfe
13. Allow system modifications and format data (NOT WIPE)
14. If that doesn't work, go to TWRP, connect it to your PC and copy the no-verity-encryption.zip file and install it
15. If that still doesn't work then, follow this tutorial
https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....niversal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389/amp/
16. Then, you should boot and yea...enjoy ?
If this method doesn't work then, you need to try different combinations.
Try packing these files in AP
1. Boot.lz4.img, (Modified) Recovery.lz4.img & system.lz4.img
2. (Modified) Recovery.lz4.img & system.lz4.img
3. Meta-data, Boot.lz4.img, (Modified) Recovery.lz4.img & system.lz4.img
If that doesn't work, I'm sorry this is how I fixed it. ?*
For anyone wondering how I fixed it well, firstly a HUGE THANKS TO @shah22 & @Tapas27sTapas2. This would have been LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT THEM. So, basically I tried an AP with renamed recovery.lz4.img and system.lz4.img only along with CP, CSC and BL. Due to my phone having literally 0%, this journey was very difficult.
Feel free to ask any question
