Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
You will need to find and download your stock firmware and flash that through Odin.
The thread linked below has the stock firmware for different variants of your phone. I did not see the firmware for your R7 model but I did see a post that said the user successfully flashed the SM-G925R4 stock firmware on their G925R7.
SM G925 stock firmware
You can post your questions in that thread.
If you would rather find the actual stock firmware for your device then you can try going to Sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com.
There is also this tool that you can use to find your firmware, it is supposed to download faster than Sammobile or samsung-updates.

Hi.
My galaxy tab 3 lite SM-T110 is stuck in a boot loop, I never used a custom rom, just a few root-required apps.
I don't know how to fix it, I tried a few tutorials but they didn't work.
I'm downloading the stock rom right now, but it's not in my region, and I don't know if that matters because it's not a phone. Could I have trouble with language if it isn't the right region?
Please help, thanks.
Hi,
Here is a similar thread you can follow for flashing stock with Odin.
But you need the firmware for your exact model, or you could have very serious issues. Try sammobile website for firmware.

That thread has everything you need.... However, if you're looking to go to lollipop, the sprint note edge android development forum has a link to the stock lollipop firnware also. (Also linked on last page of that thread)
If you're looking for stock KK, first post and skip the root instructions

Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
Can you still boot to recovery? If so you can try the normal wipes in recovery and reboot, you can restore a nandroid backup if you ever made one, you can download another custom ROM for your model and try flashing it.
If none of that works and you can boot to download mode, you can flash the stock firmware, most Samsung firmwares are available at Sammobile.com and at samsung-updates.com, you will have to use your exact model number(located behind the battery), get the firmware for your exact model, it doesn't have to be 4.1.2, any firmware version will work as long as it is for your exact model number, it cannot be for another model number. If you want to root after restoring the stock firmware then you need to check if the firmware you find is rootable before you flash it, some are not rootable depending on your device.
When I search your model number on XDA, it comes up that your device is compatible with the T-Mobile custom ROMs, see if you can find one for download that doesn't have a dead link and flash it through recovery if you can get to recovery, dont forget ot get the right gapps to go with the ROM you find if you decide to go that route. The ROMs can be found in the forum linked below.

i looked through the sites and i found out one of my friends goes here so he fixed it for me
I have a t-mobile s3 that was at one time rooted then updated to the latest firmware root was lost and never rerooted. I was running the latest update totally stock no modifications. The phone wont complete the boot it just hangs at the end where the samsung is going from blue to white. The phone will go into download mode and recovery however when i tried to do a factory reset on it it failed. The device is not rooted so i cant flash a rom to it. I dont know how to fix it. I dont know what version of odin to use and am not sure what rom to put on it or if i can even do it. I connected the phone to odin and it said s4 mini so I am thinking that is not the version of odin to even try and flash the stock firmware. any suggestions on how to fix my phone or if it can be fixed?
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
I cant post a link for you but you can go to Sammobile or samsung-updates and use your model number to find your stock firmware. I'm sure there will be more than one android version for your device so choose whichever you want, just be mindful of which ones are rootable or not if you want to root it again at some point. Then use at least Odin version 3.09 or newer, make sure you have the newest version of "USB drivers for Samsung phones" installed.
If you have more questions or need further assistance you can post your question in the forum linked below.

I have rooted this phone and bricked it before, boy when will I ever learn, well this time for some reason Odin cant help me, I've tried and it always get hung up on nand. write then fails, I have tried switching usb ports, I have tried different stock firmware versions, I have tried different versions of odin, I have tried oneclick unroot, I am at a complete loss, is there anyone who can help me figure this out? I am pretty sure i didnt OEM unlock, and twrp is loaded on my phone but no OS apparently. i think i may remember ticking repartition with a sm-n920t pit file flashing with the stock firmware atleast once.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy Note 5
Model: SM-N920T
S/W: N920TUVU2COI5
Try downloading the stock firmware from another site. I use to have the same problem. Make sure you download the correct stock firmware that matches the model number on the phone.
Download N920TUVU2COI5 firmware or download the latest N920TUVS4DPH2 firmware or just use smart switch emergency recovery option it should work

Grab the stock 5.1.1 Rom and load the tar in Odin bro
