softbricked my s8 - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

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

Galaxy s6 edge plus error

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...

Error while updating software

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.

J5 prime (sm-g570f) is stucked on "an error while updating..conect smart switch.."

J5 prime (sm-g570f) is stucked on "an error while updating..conect smart switch.."
Hi,
i recently bought a J5 PRIME and i put a passcode to it and i can't remember it now,but i can access the google account that i used,so here's what i did,
i did a bit of searching online and played around with the recovery tool in the phone,and now im getting this error
"an error has occurred while updating the device software.use the emergency recovery function......smart witch pc software."
so i tried to install the stock firmware with smart switch but im getting a message that says,
"SM-G570F Does not support initializing please contact our service provider'
now the only thing i can do is to getting to the download mode,thats the only thing i can do
i was okay at that time because im also doing Software engineering and i know a bit about phoenes, soi tried to put the stock firmware through odin,but it doesn't work,it fails at a certain point,and then i checked my phone and i saw that ''blocked by frp''
then i did a bit of searching and i got to know about oem,and what frp is, so basically i didnt enabled oem when i had access to my phone.
what should i do,im freaking out here
