Only Official Released Binaries Are Allowed To Be Fashed Samsung SM-G950F - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hello!
I mess up by flashing my Samsung S8 SM-G950F, now it stuck in booting and red text "Only Official Released Binaries Are Allowed To Be Fashed "?
How fix that?
Thanks for answers!

That means only official stock firmware can be flashed. So you should download stock rom and flash.

TWRP Released for S6

I'm guessing this is only for international variants? Is that correct?

Yup, looks like it's for the international model of the phone. At least we're getting something lol. Have you looked at the htc one m9 forums? They have so many roms and kernels already. Type jealous hahaha

Should work on all S6 if I'm not mistaken since it's the same hardware.
**edit: flashed it via Flashify and was able to get into it without any issues on my Canadian S6!

That's because they already had the M9 software over a month ago lol. The rom makers basically already had roms ready before the release date.
I wonder why there is no device tree.
Is it only for S6 or S6 Edge also?

Flashed via flashify on the sprint variant. Took forever to boot into twrp, then when it finally did, touchscreen wouldn't respond so i couldn't do anything.
Everytime i reboot it keeps rebooting into twrp. So i guess im stuck until sprint twrp.img or sprint firmware is released. I can still get into DL mode so whatev.

Canadian Variant 928W8 stock firmware

Any one knows when it will be available? My phone has been FRP locked, so need it urgently to unbrick my phone... Thanks!!
Sam mobile usually has all the firmwares available to download as Odin packages. If not I could probably do a factory reset, make a twrp backup and upload it for you? You'll of course need to root/install twrp following all the guides here for that to work though.
I don't know if you're looking for a stock ROM or not. Honestly haven't read much about the FRP lock, haven't even bothered flashing my Edge+ yet (also W8 variant, which is weird for me, first android I haven't flashed.. ). Anyway, there is THIS in the T-Mobile section (rooted+deodexed though).
Hmm... the problem is that I cannot even boot into recovery mode as this stupid FRP is blocking every custom recovery/kernel/ROM.... Only the stock firmware would help to unbrick the phone...

Thanks for the link, but it is not the stock firmware so that it won't help in my case. FRP basically blocks any recovery/kernel/ROM other than stock version. Please please please always keep in mind to check"OEM unlock" in developer option before doing factory reset on a custom ROM, in particular we are using W8 variant, that Samsung hasn't released the stock firmware... In other words, there is no way to unbrick the phone once it is FRP locked.
Anybody manage to find this? I need the stock firmware now too :\
Is it true that the battery doesn't charge after it's FRP locked? So the missing W8 firmware even if it comes eventually when the battery is dead the phone is dead? How in the hell are we supposed to fix this with no firmware available on sammobile?! Is there really no other way? Who has the firmware? Do the carriers have it?
Samsung Firmware has stock firmware for the W8 variant (full ODIN tar files), both OGD and the new OK5. I've been checking sammobile daily, and nothing (even at the time of this post).. Just thought I'd post in case some were not aware..

You're welcome! Since I made that post, sammobile has 2 versions of OK5 firmware now. IIRC, they have a free download method (ableit, it's slow). Should be able to change CSC, but I could be wrong..
Anyone know how to fix it yet?
Canadian variants are on sammobile now.

I don't know if I have a 15 or 11... I can't check either. I am rooted but I have version PB1 and I don't know if it works with that one (since the bootloader was upgraded also on that version).

What method? I can't do most of them since I can't get on my phone because of it's condition. And how it doesn't give specific instructions.

Sorry was out of town... I am trying "Method 3: ADB" since I can't boot into the phone. But I am having troubles with downloading "https://github.com/beaups/SamsungCID/blob/master/samsung_unlock" from step one. And also do I boot my device in fastboot, bootloader, or what since I can't get on my phone?
I want something like this: http://www.galaxys5update.com/unbri...00a-soft-brick-fix-restore-to-stock-firmware/ ... "Step 5a. Flash the AP file Only without losing user data"
So I won't loose system data for apps, wifi, downloads, etc.
So can I upgrade the device using Odin without loosing data since I am still have stock rom on the device and not a custom one?

Uh, whut?
I think he just meant if you want to have the phone reset to how it came out of the box. There is no root available yet.
what is that user data file never saw that before in firmware package
So is it true that you cant cross carrier flash the firmware like the S7? Supposedly samsung blocks it or odin is outdated?

Rom custom and Bootloader

Hello everyone,
I own a Galaxy S7 edge which is currently on the G935FXXS4ESC5 Oreo stock rom, I think I have understood that the 4 (in bold) is the version of the bootloader, I also believe that one can not put a stock rom with a lower bootloader, but what about the custom rom ?
When installing a custom rom we are asked via the aroma Installer, if we want to update the bootloader (and the modem) or if we want to leave it as is, can we suddenly install a custom rom with a lower bootloader by choosing to leave it as is ?
Example: switch from this stock rom Oreo bootloader 4 to a custom rom nougat (in this case the Batman rom, I had a very good battery outfit with this rom)
Thank you for your replies hoping to have been clear in my request
