Can you go to to download mode? If so go there. Then, flash the official firmware for your phone with Odin ; you can look up tutorials on how to do this on YouTube. If not send your phone to Samsung and pray your warranty is not voided as I did this for my S8 when I bricked it. Also bricked means when your phone cannot turn off at all. Bootloop is when the bootloader loops.

Ok so managed to get onto ice Rom but when I try to flash stock firmware back through odin I just get an error?

If you have a custom rom now why go back to stock? And without the specific error we can't help much
Post the odin log and I can help

Ive decided to stay on ice as its got more benefits than stock lol

[Q] SM-T537R4 Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 will not load! Only has download and stock recovery

Rooted the device with Odin. But couldn't for the life of me find a recovery for it. Flash a ton through Odin then final got a TWRP recovery to work.. When I wiped everything I was instructed to I tried to flash the rom I found (Bliss) I got a could not mount preload error.. And another error I can't recall. Then it just kept looping. So I ran the root file through Odin again.. And it now just boots straight to the Samsun logo and sits there until you hold power vol down (or up) and home till it switches to download or recovery. The TWRP is gone somehow and its stock again.
Hope this isn't confusing... I'll answer any questions and try any suggestion... PLEASE HELP

As far as I know there aren't any custom recoveries or roms working for your model number, so that's why nothing is working properly. Your only solution would appear to be to download the stock firmware and flash back to stock with Odin.

Thanks for the link! I'll do that as soon as I get home.
Do you know if there's any way to get a custom rom onto my tablet?

Unfortunately I'm fairly certain there are no custom Roms available for your tablet

Dead Phone? (Stuck at samsung Logo)

Decided to flash back to stock lollipop as I was going to send my phone back for repair, so flashed using odin. I got the message <OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0). But then the phone just boots to the Samsung logo and goes no further. Then tried flashing twrp to see if I could recover one of my old backups, but doing that just takes me to download mode and every time I take the battery out and boot up I end up in download mode again.
Any other ideas? Thanks
Can you boot into the stock recovery after pulling the battery and inserting it again?
I'd suggest flashing the latest 4.4 rom for your region from sammobile.com with the correct pit file, and repartition ticked in odin.

Managed to rescue phone by booting to stock recovery and clearing data/cache.
Is it possible to revert back to kitkat using the procedure you outlined even if you have an updated bootloader? I.e it you've upgraded to lollipop via ota?

What rom were you on? If you were on stock you may as well install the origanal and when google asks you to sign in restore everything ! If you do do the way your going to make sure you back up the 6.0.1 to. Good luck

CM13 uses Lollipop bootloader and you are trying to restore a 6.0.1 rom which is using Marshmallow bootloader, thats why you are getting green samsung logo.
You have to flash stock rom 6.0.1 to be able to restore that 6.0.1 backup.

Softbricked A5(2016) A510F - can't install firmware

Hey there!
So it seem like I bricked a friends A510F
Wifi, bluetooth, mobile data all weren't working properly and there were some minor difficulties with performance so we decided to install AOSP...
All her data is secured so I seached for a good ROM and tried to install TWRP from here. Installing via Odin sadly failed so now I have device without Android, only OdinMode is working, but all attempts to install either twrp for a custom ROM or Samsung original firmware failed...
Any clues what I'm doing wrong? Haven't done a Samsung device so far...
All suggestions welcome

Download repair firmware from xda and flash it through odin.it will probably work!

What happens when the phone is turned on? Does it get stuck in boot logo and stays like that? Try flashing stock bootloader. Also give details on which firmware u were on. What error do u get in odin?
Hello Sirs,
Please, can anybody help me? It is very weird what is happening!
After to go and download the original firmware in Sammobile, I used odin to install a stock rom! Odin is OK (process completed) but when it is trying to start, the logo samsung is blocked (bootloader). I have tried to modify the hidden.img to hidden.img.tar and I have use Odin but nothing looks like to work. Can anybody help me?
Thanks so much in advance!
Additional info: The device has not been rooted, etc.
hey i use a galaxy a510F currently and evertime i get FRP locked, software deleted, broken rom or twrp, my final solution is to odin flash a PERFECTLY WORKING STOCK ROM (which i had to try downloading from 3 or 4 different sites) and then i'd flash twrp ( official ) and restore one of by backups if needed. last time i had to flash because i hot frp locked tring out a new rom. i flashed over a stock rom and i got my phone working surprisingly without even losing my apps.
file i used is:" INS-A510FXXU8CSF1-20190710103917.zip"
pm me if u need a link (its in my drive)

Bricked S8 950F after Root and Twrp Odin Says fail

Hi everybody Guys I need some help think I gone crazy My S8 950f Get bootlooping in Samsung S8 logo with red letters above it says only oficial binaries allowed. Something like that. I go to Odin To restore it back to stock with stock firmware 8.0 and Odin says fail when start to flash boot IMG when I see this I almost start to cry and we'll I tried so many firmware and Any does seems to work Now I got Beautiful 350 bucks brick phone. Somebody know what it's happening?
In the download screen says sv firmware check fail Bootloader
(Sorry for my bad English I using Google translate)
Please help
donot worry its a soft brick.. flash twrp and as soon as odin say successful and phone turns off imediately prss bixby + power+vol up....it will take you to recovery....download a rom and flash it
Just a question, but did you put your device into download mode before trying to flash via Odin?
It´s like said soft bricked, so any official stock Rom should work with Odin.
No need to flash TWRP first as each official ROM comes with stock recovery and will overwrite TWRP anyway when flashing it. But you of course can give it a try. If you can´t flash a firmware for some reason, i would try a different one. The one you are having might be corrupted.
