Help softbricked device
well i was running more rom on the device when i droped it then i got the screen and digi replaced
and when the tech tuned it on for the first time after repair we got a udc start screen that says unknown error at the top
i can get to download mode though. but even after trying to restore the bootloader or flash a new modem i cant get to any recovery.
right now this is what it says in download mode.
odin mode
product name : SM-G900P
current binary: custom
system status : custom
knox warranty void 0x1 (4)
i can go to download mode or try and let it boot up to the samsung boot but it says recovery booting in blue and loops there on reboot.
i forget the name of the modem i was on in more rom. i think it was the one be4 ota6
but i want to update to latest version of modem and rom not sure where to start.
i cant seem to get back to stock or custom recovery at all. or even boot up to a rom now. and i honestly have no idea why? =( can someone help?

Follow the instructions from this post. Since you are soft bricked at the moment, you'll need to start at step 4. If you have an extSD in your phone, you might want to pull it until after you're up and running because the "Android" folder from Kitkat needs to be deleted and rebuilt for Lollipop.
That's what I tryed first but it didn't work,
First step.... flash SM-G900P_OA6_FullRestore.
(on boot i have samsung galaxy s5 screen with blue letters at the top saying recovery booting and it loops.)
sense that didn't work i tryed... SM-G900P_NI3-Full_Restore_Unrooted (Compressed Archive)
(on boot i have samsung galaxy s5 screen with blue letters at the top saying recovery booting and it loops.)
then i tryed SM-G900P_OA6_FullRestore. again but still no luck im out of ideas
I cant get to any recovery.
please help.

Are you using the wrong terminology? You have to use Odin and a PC to install the .tar. Also, the first boot into Lollipop can take about 20 minutes. You have to be patient. I see you posting in different threads and you seem to be digging deeper into a hole.
Are you using Odin and starting by downloading (to PC) the file in step #4? Then follow the remaining steps "exactly". Re-read those instructions and if you not already downloaded the needed files, do that first.

Try this: Do a battery pull, then put the phone in Download mode, hook up to PC and then open Odin and then Odin custom recovery, either twrp or Philz. Uncheck auto reboot in odin and once it passes, pull the battery, unplug and boot into recovery. Also, you might update Odin, there's a link to Odin 3.10.0 in my post. Let's see if we can get that far and go from there.

Which recovery tar did you Odin? You pulled the battery after Odin said PASS, then unplugged the phone, put battery back in and immediately tried to get into recovery? If so, I'm stumped.

I saw your post count, I knew you knew what you're doing, just wanted to double check everything. Sorry, I'm out of ideas. I did ask @tdunham to take a look at this thread, if he has some other ideas, but he's offline right now. Hopefully he'll check in later.
What about flashing back to an older version of android? Full tar flash.
---------- Post added at 12:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 AM ----------
Like ne5, and nothing else, just see if you can get stock to boot, no messing around trying to flash recovery.
This is RWillco12's NE5 stock.. Have the phone in download mode and run the .exe
Thanks TD.

I tryied ni3 already
but as far as i know you cant downgrade the bootloader.
if i could flash just the bootloader for ota6 maybe that would help.
i will try downloading ne5 now but my last rom was running a nkd modem.
im going to try and flash G900P_NKD_FullRestore.tar in odin if that dont work ill try ne5
and will report back shortly.
well nkd full restore boots up to
unknowen error!
wait..
done!
udc start.
power reset or
unknown
upload mode.
this is the way i got it back from retech after they replaced my bezel and digitlizer and screen
i never had an issue with anything software wize before that.
Have you tried flashing the phone without any sim cards inserted including the sprint card? You are flashing from a powered off state right? You know it wont work unless phone is powered off before going into download mode.
As a last resort attached is the pit file for the 16gb G900P. Unzip and put it into the pit section of odin and flash the stock firmware again. It will repartition the entire phone when it flashes the stock image.

is there any bootloaders only i can flash?
well tryed everything all it does is vibrate 2 times. same as be4 im dead in the water. i don't know what's wrong or what to do.
I have tryed everything i can think of.
I can boot to download mode and flash anything i want but nothing works.
no recovery. no rom.
Tried to root my Note 5 using Zedomax's method for 6.0.1 and I think something went wrong. My phone ran through the Odin flashing process and passed, but on reboot I was left with red letter saying "recovery is seandroid enforcing" or something to that effect along with a boot loop. I was unable to boot into TWRP. I can still get the phone in download mode, but it seems like every firmware/recovery I try to flash leaves me in the same predicament or it freezes odin before I can flash it. My note 5 is a 920p Sprint model and on 6.0.1. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Uncheck auto reboot in Odin and Odin twrp.
Reboot straight from download mode into twrp and flash either smoar rom or the deodexed rom by tdunham. Did you make sure you oem lock is off ?

Download one of these for your phone. .
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N920P/
Make sure you uncheck auto reboot in Odin and as soon as it's done and says success disconnect the phone and immediately press and hold the volume down button and the power button at the same time and when the screen comes back up you HAVE to select factory reset wipe if you don't you'll be stuck again just let the little android dude install the update and then the phone will reboot and you'll be ok.
Unzip the md5 you get from the sammobile site and flash only the .tar
This is what he told me that got my phone up and working again. Be warned it is the nuclear option. All of your data will be lost upon recovery good luck.
I hate bringing old posts back to life....But I'm stuck in a series of boot loops that I can't get out of.
I was rooted on MM, decided to go back to stock for a Gallery error I was having.
Downloaded the PD2 from Sammobile, Odin'd it, appears successful.
Reboot
I get to the stock ROM setup screens and the boot loop occurs. I can't complete setup.
I've tried unticking the reboot in Odin and going directly into system recovery...then I do a Factory reset which appears successful.\\Reboot phone, back into the stock ROM Welcome screen....start the setup, and usually after adding WiFi or during Activation reboot.
Any help??

It's extremely common and has one simple solution. Let the battery completely die and then charge it up a little and you won't loop anymore
Thanks for the reply. Earlier today I visited my local Sprint store and gave them a crack at it. After about 30 minutes in the store, the tech suggested I leave with it them and they were going to completely wipe it and load the stock image.
After about an hour I went back to the store and he gave me the bad news that he was unable to get it out of the boot loop as well. They've ordered me a new device.
I really trust what you say about letting the phone battery die...but I fear that would fix it and I'd be out a new replacement device.

Dude!! It worked. I put the phone in download mode and just let it sit until it died.
Booted it back up and it went straight into hands free activation. And no reboots.
Why does this work?
So I used my galaxy note edge SM-N915F for 6 months with no problem, but I did the Marshmallow 6.0.1 update and now it doesn't work. As I said in the title when I try to start it reboots over and over again.
Any suggestions?? It opens only downloading mode and I flashed a rom(official russian Marshmallow 6.0.1 rom) with Odin and it didn't work.
Please help me! Thanks in advanced!

When using the correct button combination are you able to enter recovery or does it continue to bootloop? Power, Home and Volume Up is used to enter recovery. When you attempted to flash the stock firmware through Odin, where did you download the stock firmware from?

Yes, it continue to bootloop even when I try to open in recovery mode. I succesfully entered recovery mode only one time and was able to full wipe, full cache the phone. This is after the flashing. I flashed the stock firmware a week ago and I actually don't remember where I downloaded it from. Thanks for your interest.

Most firmwares are available from sammobile.com. Which version of Odin are you using? Also, when you performed the flash through Odin, did Odin show the flash to be successful on the progress window? Was your Note Edge rooted or did you have a custom recovery installed before the bootloop issue started?

I used Odin3. Yes, Odin showed me the flash to be successful. My Edge didn't rooted before and I didn't have a custom recovery. I had an official software. I actually want to add an screenshot but XDA doesn't let me.

Have you tried a different version of Odin to perform the flash? I have 3.07 and 3.10 and sometimes one version will work perfectly and the other will show a successful flash but the device will still bootloop. Check which version you have and then download a different one to test with. That may be your issue.
Also, can you enter recovery at all anymore? If you try to enter recovery several times in a row during the bootloop process you may be able to access it after a few attempts. If you can enter recovery, wipe data/factory reset for me. Then attempt to boot. If it loops again, download the official firmware from sammobile.com and flash it with your original version of Odin. If it still loops, then flash it again with the different version of Odin. Lemme know how it goes. I'll do what I can to help.

I tried different Odin versions but it didn't work. I can flash rom succesfully but after the flashing it doesn't open in recovery mode. It bootloops. Once, it opened in recovery mode and I did wipe data/factory reset after first flashing and it didn't work. Now, it still doesn't open anyway except Downloading Mode.

I used 5.1.1 to before I accepted the MM OTA and I didn't have any p roblem with 5.1.1. I tried to flash different type of 6.0.1 after the problem. Just, problem started with the MM OTA. I will try to flash 5.1.1. So, I guess I need to enter recovery to wipe data/factory reset before flashing 5.1.1 but I can not because it still bootloop. How can I do wipe data/factory reset?
Edit1: And I readed somewhere, they said that it is about the kernel? Is it possible?
Edit2: A few minutes ago, I succeeded to enter recovery mode, I did factory reset and phone still bootloop. It doesn't open. Now, I am downloading the 5.1.1. I will try to flash 5.1.1.
Edit3: I tried a lot of times but it is still same. I flashed the 5.1.1 with different versions of Odin. I successful with flashed it but phone wants to enter in recovery mode after flashing and it bootloops. It is trying to enter recovery mode all time but it doesn't work. Sometimes, on charge, it close to enter the recovery mode. I said in edit2 I succeeded to enter recovery mode, but I didn't say that it was on charge because I discover this now. So, I don't know what I have to do, I am waiting for your suggestions.

Let's see if we can get your Note Edge into safe mode without bootlooping. Use these steps:
Turn on safe mode
Turn the device off.
Press and hold the Power and Volume down key.
Continue to hold the Volume down key until the device finishes restarting.
Safe mode will display in the bottom left corner of the screen.
Release the Volume down key when you see Safe Mode.
I have read a few forums and notes about booting into safe mode can stop the bootloop. Once it's successfully booted into safe mode we can attempt to boot normally. Give it a shot and I'll keep researching. Good luck.

I tried a lot of times but it didn't work. I tried on charge, without charge, with different cables but still bootloop. It is just like a joke.
I tried with Kies but Kies didn't see my edge. It didn't connect. On the Kies window, it said "connecting..." so I waited about 2 hours and it didn't connect. Then, I tried to emergency firmware recovery, it didn't see my edge again.
Download Samsung Smart Switch and see if it recognizes your device.

Do you have your friends device with you and a PC to use? Was your friend trying to root the device or install a custom recovery or a custom ROM when this happened?
Or, did your friend accept the OTA for 6.0.1 MM and then ended up in a bootloop after installing the OTA?

What version of Odin are you using to flash the factory firmware? Try to flash the firmware with a different version of Odin.
Also, you said the flash was unsuccessful using Odin. Was there an error message in Odin at the bottom left corner of the screen? If so, what was the error? I have had several flashes fail using one version of Odin but pass with a different version.
Also, what version of Android was your friends device using before you tried to flash the 6.0.1 firmware? If the device was running 5.1.1, have you tried to flash a 5.1.1 firmware with Odin?

I have used Odin version 1.85 then tried with Odin v3.11.1 , the flash succeeded no errors but the phone stayed as is .. Actually, he doesn't know the android version of his phone before it bricked. Are u suggesting that I should try to flash a 5.1.1?

Search for Odin 3.07 and 3.10. I use both of these versions. When all else fails for me I use 3.07 and it always seems to work for me. Also, I'm betting it was running 5.1.1 because 6.0.1 hasn't been out that long for the Saudi Arabian Note Edge. I would flash the 5.1.1 stock firmware using Odin 3.07 and see if it will allow you to boot normally. Let me know how it goes. Good luck.

Dammit man. Ill keep looking through my Samsung stuff and see what I can find. I sent my cousin an email yesterday who works for Samsung in their Tier 3 Technical Support/Case Management Group and asked her for some help. I'm really curious as to what she has to say on the subject. When it comes to a Samsung Galaxy or Note device she is a PRO. When I run into an issue with any of my Samsung devices that I can't fix, I call or email her. Keep working on it and we will find a solution.
Everytime I try to unroot my phone with Odin it says the process failed and Auth failed, someone please help..
Download stock firmware from the primary root guide. Use Odin and select all three the ap and the two below it. This will recover you to stock. Without root. But first do a titanium backup or a nandroid backup of all your apps and contact.

Try rerooting the phone through ODIN also make sure you are using the lastest ODIN if you need to boot into recovery and do factory reset and cleat cache but BACK YOU STUFF UP!!! Also what is you model number ex: SM-G935x
Edit also make sure u have secure start up off and have you lockscreen password off just in case
Well uh. now my phone is stuck in recovery mode and won't even start up normally.. and it's the SM-G930T

Hate to say this again but just to make sure did you try doing factory reset and clear cache. Also if its still stuck then use odin to flash the s7 engineer root file then go into recovery mode and then clear cache and factory reset it should work fixed my boot loop when my phone was doing it.
I did all this Odin still fails, I've tried all three downloads from XDA for SM-930T which is my phone

Well if worst come to it goto best buy and goto the samsung depart ment and belike my phone is stuck in a boot loop and they told me to have you guys reflash it. Thats what i did when my recovery was messed up and had a boot loop. Just tell them that the only thing that works is download mode or if they boot into recovery mode be like the factory reset doesnt do any thing. But i would say do this if its and absolute last option. I would say look around the fourms and mess around with it a bit more and ill do the same since you already tried petty much every thing.
Trying to unroot
Same issue here with 930T. Had rooted and was unsatisfied but I tried flashing TWRP and now I can't even boot into recovery, goes straight into home screen. Now I can't unroot after trying ODIN, SuperSU, Samsung Switch etc. Would love some help.
Make sure you actually try each one of these steps - I actually tried all these steps, and the last step worked for me. Took me 5-6 hours to unroot my phone. I use a Samsung S7 (SM-G930W8).
1. USB Cable matters. Try a different USB cable (best if it is the OEM one, if not one that gives enough power)
2. Plug into a USB 2.0 instead of a USB 3.0
3. Uninstall Kies
4. Re-install your Samsung USB drivers
5. Use a different computer
6. Use a older version of Odin (3.10 did not work for me, when I changed to 3.9 it worked)
Why not just initialize using smart switch.
So I would suggest going to this post here and downloading the ODIN 3.12

I was trying to unroot for a clean root and this one worked for me the one made by PrinceComsy did not work for the flashing the stock ROM but it did work for flashing the ENG Boot ROM. I used 3 out of the 4 file to flash the stock rom I didn't select the BL file at all but you can if you want.
If you need any further assistance/help please reply to this and I will try to assist you further.

Flash old version of your firmware with ODIN.

Did you enable OEM unlock in settings?
You could try to flash twrp in odin and then flash a custom rom and see if it boots.
But if you didnt enable oem unlock that wont work either

I rooted mine fine, but after a few days, unchecked the OEM unlock option, then when the phone was rebooted....Game Over.
Only way to fix it is to do what I did and go to my local Samsung with my tail between my legs and they knew in 2 seconds i had rooted and ctold me efuse or similar had blown on board, so a new one had to be fitted.
Cost me £295!!

I remember that I had something similar on my previous S8. After flashing TWRP and installing the dm-verity.zip in TWRP solved the issue.
Have a look at this link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...pment/recovery-twrp-galaxy-s8-exynos-t3595102
2nd post you will find the link to the zip file.

Easy fix . Just follow my guid here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/how-to/odin-flash-fail-fixed-solutions-t3650073
I had this issue too. You HAVE to make sure you hold POWER + VOLUME UP + BIXBY when you are flashing with Odin. Once it is done it will boot into TWRP. Otherwise, you get the message about needing to wipe the phone no matter what you do.
