SM-G950 Stuck at Bootloop after TWRP - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Tried rooting this device (SM-G950F, 3 UK carrier logo), USB Debugging On, OEM Unlock On, odin successfully installed TWRP 3.3.1-1. Device restarted and since then does not go beyond Samsung logo. Can't go into recovery, can't shutdown the phone. Only goes into download mode. Googled and found a way to flash AQF7 BL, did flash it successfully with odin but still the same stuck at boot screen.
Here is what I tried so far;
Tried flashing TWRP older version 3.1.1-2
Tried flashing AQF7 Bootloader (BL_G950FXXU1AQF7_CL11544126_QB13847492_REV00_user_low_ship.tar)
Odin says successful install for both but can't get past boot screen.
Should I try flashing AQF7 firmware now? (downloading anyway). I would've tried it without asking but seen people doing it and still stuck at the same situation.

What if you try latest BTU firmware (CP/BL/AP/CSC) and then flash TWRP, untick autoreboot and try again? Is what comes to my mind atm

Well finally managed to flash a firmware... all is good. Phone is rooted now. All I wanted to do is to change the imei of this device. Installed Xposed firmware and the module (IMEI Changer). Imei changed as well, but when I put a sim it say not registered to network. Xposed IMEI changer says that its a software exploit and in Pakistan, the telecom authority has blocked all the imported phones (asking ridiculous amount as customs duty). Now I am not sure if the phone is carrier locked or locked by PTA (Pakistan Telecommunication Authority).
I apologize for the thread itself. It was more like a panic thread. Mods, would you please delete the thread, or if it doesn't bother anyone then someone please help me resolve this issue. PTA blocks the unregistered imei. This device is blocked and I have no idea how they do it. Youtube videos claims that imei changer works and changes the imei that PTA reads and unblocks the phone, but still not sure as I've successfully changed the imei.
Thanks.

[Need Help] G935A Bootloop

Now I've searched just about all of Google on this, but I haven't been able to find a solution yet. Everyone here seems to know the most about this kind of stuff so I figured I'd make an account and explain my situation.
Backstory / How it happened
So, earlier today I figured I'd root my AT&T S7 Edge, I used a tutorial from Max Lee (I can't post links yet but if you need to find it I'm sure you can Google it) to get the job done, and after a while I managed to get the thing rooted. I knew absolutely nothing about what the hell flashing, roms, bricked phones, bootloops etc. were and now I only know a bit about them. So the phone was rooted just fine, I had SuperSU running, and a few other root apps, but then I figured I'd install xposed installer. So I went ahead and downloaded the wrong version (whoops) and it installed its framework and then said it needed to reboot my phone, low and behold we have a bootloop. It stays at the AT&T logo indefinitely if I'd let it. I'll happily admit to that being completely my mistake, I read the warning that it may cause a bootloop but I went ahead and installed it anyway thinking I could fix it if it happened. (This thread is my walk of shame I suppose)
Solutions I've tried
Now that the background has been explained, I'll go through the list of solutions I've tried, mind you I'm no expert at any of this so some of the info I give may seem redundant or nonsensical.
- Rebooting into recovery and clearing cache and factory resetting in every order you can imagine
* Only interesting thing I could find is that it still says custom on both the download mode (the one where you press vol down, power, and home) and when you reboot the phone and it goes through the initial animation, it shows custom with a little settings-looking icon just before it goes through the AT&T animation and takes a **** on my self esteem.
- Waiting ~1 hour for the AT&T logo to change to something other than an AT&T logo (I was desperate)
* Yeah nothing came out of that one...
- Flashing every stock firmware I could find on the internet, with every version of Odin I could find.
* Kept getting the same error, "FAIL! (Auth)". I looked it up and all I found was old threads from 2013 on the Galaxy S4, with some now-irrelevant information, I couldn't seem to get it to work, but I'm positive that's what I need to do unless you guys know another solution. Here's the full log:

Sorry for the wall of text, I tried to format it as nicely as possible to make it somewhat readable. If anyone needs more info let me know.
Can you flash TWRP? If you can maybe you can boot into TWRP and then try to flash any rom from XDA and see if it comes alive...

Thank you for the response
I've tried getting TWRP to work, but apparently there still isn't a way to get it working on the AT&T, I was under the impression that it was only for international and Korean versions. I haven't been able to find any version of TWRP that works for my device.
However I just did try some newer stock firmware from, "theandroidsoul" which partially worked, being that I'm desperate and don't know what I'm doing I just tried flashing all three:
G935AUCS4API2 - This one worked more than the others, but it seems at some point it disconnects for whatever reason, causing it to fail. After that my phone gave me the whole "You messed up go use smart switch" deal, and smart switch was saying my device was unsupported. That said I'm not sure what is causing the fake USB disconnect cause I can hear the windows sound for the USB disconnecting, but I'm not sure why.
Here's the log:

I found it interesting that it got even less far than before.
G935AUCS2APH1 - Stopped at lksecapp.mbn then went to FAIL! (Auth). There was no disconnect or reconnect
G935AATT2APG1 - Same as above
I seem to be stuck in a similar situation. Did you ever find a fix?

I had the at&t s7 edge before and had the same problem but not sure if it was the same odin error.
But this is how you flash a stock rom on the at&t:
-You must use the princecomsy odin (search for it on google)
-Here is the stock rom with the latest security update (type "G935AUCS4BRA1" in the google search bar)
(I wasn't allowed to post links)
unzip and flash
tell me how it goes

Before I also got a "device 2 binary 1 error" and once a "device 3 binary 1 error" while flashing, on the download screen, now I can't get it anymore.
I used Odin 3.13.1 and Prince Comsy Odin, none of those two worked.
I have no access to the recovery or the system.
What is going wrong?

Sounds like you are trying to downgrade firmware from a higher bootloader version to a lower one.

Does your current firmware say U2?
The "CRAP" firmware you mentioned says U1 and I read somewhere you can't fallback from U2 to U1

Having A Hard Time Flashing TWRP With Odin.

I've been gone for awhile. I've always been rooted until I got a phone that couldn't be so that made me less active on here. Then that phone broke and I got an Iphone given to me. I won't be getting another Iphone. That wasn't fun for me. Now I'm back at it with a phone that can be rooted and is already rooted but I can't get to the next step for some reason. The problem I'm having is that I can't get odin to flash TWRP for nothing. Here is my log if that helps. Just give me advise and I'll see what I can do here.
I'm doing all I can to get xposed on this phone so I can get those handy dandy addons.
In recovery mode it says I have the ''heroqltevzw''. I tried using google I even looked on here but I can not find any information about ''heroqltevzw''. It's either heroqltechn or herolte.
Using Odin3 v3.12.7. Used A Few Others But It All Gives Me The Same Problem.
Some info about my phone.
Model Number: SM-G930V (VERIZON)
ANDROID vERISON: 8.0.0 (OREO)
