Problems returning back to stock - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I thought going back to stock everything would be easy enough, but not.
I've been having issues with my phone and my only blame I can put is at the custom roms feet.
I'm trying to go back to stock. I have the correct drivers installed, I have odin ready and downloaded the firmware.
I first tried G920FXXU1AOCV_G920FTEF1AOC1_G920FXXU1AOCW_HOME.tar which failed
Comes up on the screen of the phone as: SW REV, CHECK FAIL, DEVICE: 3, BINARY: 1
With odin displaying:
<ID:0/003> Odin engine v(ID:3.1100)..
<ID:0/003> File analysis..
<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/003> Initialzation..
<ID:0/003> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/003> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/003> SingleDownload.
<ID:0/003> sboot.bin
<ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/003> FAIL!
<ID:0/003>
<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
I tried with another firmware: G920FXXU2BOFJ_G920FBTU2BOFJ_G920FXXU2BOFJ_HOME.tar which also failed exactly like the above.
I am in the process of downloading a third, one from sammobile. I don't hold up much hope for that either.
Any thoughts?

Hope did you changed the different USB port and original USB cable.
If still same problem , please install smart switch
put it in download mode
open smart switch.
choose the emergency software recovery option.
if the smart switchsays it can t recognize ur device..
Then you have an option there to pick the device manually.
write the model(SM-G920F)
Write the S/N (SERIALNUMBER) which you can find on the back

Flashing in ODIN failing when going back to stock

Hello,
I am attempting to flash my phone back to stock using these directions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586319
When I boot the phone normally, I get the Verizon warning about non-Verizon software. I am able to go to Download mode just fine. I have tried both the ODIN (I've tried JODIN as well) and VZW utility methods and neither is working. I have successfully re-partitioned using the PIT in the link, but the actual tar ball fails. Here is what I get in ODIN 3.07:

My phone at Download mode says:
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (3 times)
CURRENT BINARY: CUSTOM
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Warranty Bit: 0
BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 1
I've done a ton of Googling on this and can't seem to find any answers on what to do. Does anyone have any advice to get this phone working again or is it bricked?
Thanks for any help!
Ok, so it looks like my cable was bad. After switching the cable things seem to be working now.

SoftBricked AT&T S7 PLEASE Help

So I have the AT&T variant of the Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930A). I had installed root using a tutorial I found on these forums and everything went great for months. I started getting some errors after automatic updates ran (the Play Store kept crashing) so I tried to flash back to the stock firmware. Doing this, I ended up at the "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software" page.
I've tried using Smart Switch, but the application tells me that my device is unsupported and entering my model and serial numbers into the software just causes it (the smart switch app) to crash.
On the Android Recovery screen, I can see that I have the G930AUCS2APH1 firmware running Android 6.0.1. I believe I have found the original stock firmware for this version here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/at...rmware-stock-sm-g930a-ph1-odin-files-t3458890
But whenever I try to flash anything other than CP to my phone in Odin, I end up with a FAIL! (Auth) error.

I've tried using different USB ports and cables, as well as a few different firmwares (admittedly, even some that are not the PH1 update) but all end up with the same result.
Can anyone help me out? I believe I'm doing everything right but I cannot get my phone up and running again for the life of me.
OKAY so I believe I fixed the problem before anyone could get to this so this is for anyone that stumbles across this thread. I was able to successfully flash the PK1 update to my phone. I found the firmware here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B_lsL4sQwjajY2dxSkFjYmw4OGM
Just flashing the AP package seems to have worked fine.

Odin fails at/after param.bin

So I'm trying to reset my phone(regular S8 but hoping if someone else had the same issue the fix might be the same) as a bad rom flash caused some sort of issue and couldn't get back into twrp "official binaries only"
Find latest firmware for my csc (which was july) doesnt work, I thought it might have been a BL issue as I had the august patch through a custom rom, found a different csc which was from august, and I get the same error
I also no longer get the official binaries only, just a bootloop of "An error has occurred while updating....use emergency recovery function in smart switch" which I also tried, no luck, but I can still get into download mode
Using most recent odin, official cable, updated usb firmware and such and am running as admin. Have tried different ports too, but it always fails at same step

Any Ideas? Thanks

[Solved] Samsung Galaxy S7 G930FD Odin flashing to stock firmware fails

Here's what I did from start
Installed TWRP
installed lineage 17.1 with gapps and magisk
Removed everything and installed pixel experience 10 herolte
Volte was not working in both
So I downloaded the stock firmware (latest) according to my model - G930FD INS and tried to flash it through odin as per steps
But
The log gets stuck on 'SYSTEM.IMG' and after a while fails to flash the phone.
I just want to get my stock firmware back so I can start my calls and msgs.
Please help.
I didn't used anything different just clean flashed my phone.
I have the latest firmware for stock

Solved
As the problem was, while flashing with Odin it wasn't showing any error and was only giving out output as Fail, turns out it was a port problem, I changed my USB port and cable and it worked fine. My friend also gave me advice to try it on another laptop because this happens sometimes and sometimes it works.
So if your log is something similar to what I have posted try downloading the latest Odin and changing ports or PCs, if nothing then create an id here and start a thread somebody will help you out for sure.
Peace
