N915G - Soft bricked installed wrong stock ROM - Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I was trying to flash the stock ROM on my N915G ROM earlier today however it was the wrong one. It turns out it was for the Singapore version of the N915G (5.1.1) not the Taiwan version which is the one i wanted (5.0.1 is the latest version for the Taiwan version).
Odin shown the failed message when i tried to flash it (which nearly gave me a heart attack).
I installed the CWM recovery and tried to restore my backup that i taken however i just get the Samsung logo boot loop.
I then wiped cache and dalvic cache and reset the ROM. I managed to get as far as the "android is optimizing apps" box but i just get a boot loop when its finished optimizing the 23 applications.
I am thinking i should probably just try and flash the stock ROM with odin but i really dont know what to do!
Any help would be much appreciated !
Alex
EDIT: Flashed the stock ROM and seems to be working now. Can close thread.

[Q] Darkman/Harris_xx N8010 Stock Rom Issue

Firstly I really appreciate the work by Darkman and Harris_xx however yesterday I tried to install the ROM from [ROM][STOCK][4.1.2][CMH2] N8010 Stock Rooted Busybox Deodexed (CWM) [05/09/2013] which is Darkman's ROM that was updated by Harris_xx, on my N8010. After it successfully flashes I get an error on boot up stating I do not seem to be rooted / or that supersu is not installed (unfortunately did no capture the actual error) and then it sits at the galaxy note boot page indefinitely.
I'm pretty sure its an issue with the ROM as I am able to flash an earlier version or different ROM without any issues.
Has anyone tested this ROM or have any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?
Last few days i tried the brasilian CML1.
But in my opinion the CMK2 is much smoother and i flashed my version after fullwipe back.
I had no such problems. Even in the german forum noone reported about this.
I can't reproduce where the problem is.
You could try to flash the latest SuperSU.zip trough recovery.

I downloaded the ROM again, and although it seemed to be the same size that seemed to have worked. Really appreciate your feedback and of course the ROM update!

[Q] Help! N8010 stuck at samsung logo.

hi all, I'm trying to upgrade to KK with a stock/official fw; linky via odin 3.07. I am able to flash successfully, the tablet restarts and then just sits at the Samsung "blue oval thing"
I've tried TWRP touch 2.8.0.1 to install Gnabo 6.5, following instructions of Here, using "Installation for N801x". All has gone as expected until I tried to install the bootloader section, TWRP crashes to bootloop each time.
I've tried re-downloading the bootloader as well as clean flash of KK and using CWM touch 6.0.3.6 in place of TWRP; same result.
I have a backup of 4.0.something, but i want 4.4.2. Any suggestions are welcomed, TIA.
check bootlader version

Did you flash the Leaked n8000 firmware that Changes the Boot-Loader to the knox boot-loader. If so i think you have to flash a 4.4.2 zip with Mobile odin as it does not do a Boot loader check. There are several threads about 8010 Devices STUCK Into using the n8000 firmware only. Then you have to apply the no cell and wifi fix patches. I do not have a 8010 mine is 8013 so i do not have this issue and have not read totally up on it. It just seems this could be your Trouble.
Good Luck
Thanks Erica_Renee,
I've read about this issue in a few threads, I didn't feel it affected me as my bootloader screen
View attachment 2968202
doesn't show anything about Knox.
but, as I'm short on options; why not. So you're saying go back to 4.0.whatever, install mobile odin and flash KK N8010 rather than through odin on desktop?

[Completed] Galaxy s7 flat stuck in "Echo Rom" Boot screen

I rooted a few days ago, yesterday I flashed Echoe Rom with FlashFire app. It was running beautiful after a few tweaks. Today I flashed xposed framework zip. After Flash it is now stuck in echoe boot screen. I am able to get into recovery but apparently I flashed it to the main hd instead of sd because when I do factory reset it is still showing echoe rom and still getting stuck in boot up. I tried to flash stock rom using odin and get a big fat fail!! I know, my name says it all...thats why I chose it. lol Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi !
S7 model have some more variants , I wanted to look for something related but I can`t without the exact variant
Anyway you can try re-flashing the rom you were using before Echo Rom or / and flash the xposed uninstaller
Good luck !

[J700F / J7 '15] Trouble Booting Centaurus OS, stuck on black screen

Hey there,
I found a J7 2015 (the Exynos variant) sitting in my dad's drawer. I decided to come here after a full day of trying to get Centaurus OS (from here) up and running but in vain. The reason why I am here and not on its official thread is that the official thread is closed.
After powering on the device and seeing the Samsung Logo, it is just a black screen from that point onwards. I am able to go into download mode or recovery and restore another OS, which is good, but Centaurus OS seemed fairly stable based on the feedback on the thread. I am able to get other ROMs running, including ones that are based on Android 7.1+.
Here is a summary of my attempts. I will try to not keep it long.
Method 1: Starting from Android 5.1.1 stock
Flashed TWRP 3.0.2
Factory Reset + Delete Data
Flash ROM and go through setup
Stuck on that black screen after restart
Method 2: Flashed Android 6.0.1 stock from SamFirmware.
Tried with either TWRP 3.0.2 or 3.3.1
Factory Reset
Flashed a ROM with Android 7.1
Factory Reset again
Flashed Centarius ROM
Stuck again on Boot
I have done variants of those methods multiple multiple times but nothing really worked out. I am certain I am using flashable files that are 100% designed for my phone model.
So here's what I am asking for:
Could anyone help me fix the issue? OR...
May I know of another fairly stable ROM for the J7 2015 that is based on Android 7 or higher?
Thanks a ton for passing by
Oops, this was too ridiculous on my side. It actually worked finally. Here's my setup and what I have done:
Setup:
TWRP 3.3.1 tar file Flashed via Odin
Boot into Recovery
Go to Wipe > Advanced Wipe
Check Data, Cache, SYSTEM, etc, but not External MicroSD Card and USB OTG
Back to TWRP main screen, Reboot > Recovery, ignore warning
Flash the Centarius ROM from the external MicroSD Card
Should work after reboot
After trying quite a bunch of ROMs, there's actually nothing that matches the stock ROM for our J7. Other ROMs, whether LineageOS based or based on some other ROM from another phone, are half done with minor, but annoying issues.
This is the stock ROM I used. He got a more recent version of Android Security Patches, but still quite old now. Use that one, or if you are security-paranoid, then consider switching to another phone.
