I have a huge problem!
I flashed the twrp (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/development/rom-aterminatorg920f3zpa1m-6-0-11-0b-t3295183 ) via odin ,as said, and then the phone stayed in download mode instead of rebooting or saying something like "finish" (in odin i got a message that the process successed) only the writing "dont turn the phone off". it stay like this for a long time so i had turn the phone off and since then the phone doesnt go past the samsung s6 logo screen and can be booted into recovery mode in any way!!
Ive tried reflashing twrp (many versions) and to use every other combination to get into Recovery mode (so i could do a factory reset or a data wipe) but it doesnt work.
I had this issue. It was because I was running the latest 5.1.1 update and couldn't flash TWRP. My solution was to use odin to flash stock recovery.
Hope that helps
where cani find stock recovery?

Hi, this is not my first time flashing TWRP on this phone. And I have been successful so far.
Today I use Odin to flash TWRP, and it went through just fine (see screenshot), but when I enter the recovery mode, it says "Android system recovery <3e> LMY47X.G920FXXU2COH2 on top and I am very confused. I tried a few times and apparently I cannot enter TWRP while Odin kept telling me I have flashed it successfully...
Did you have "Auto-Reboot" ticked on Odin? On my Note 4 that used to mean the kernel would reflash the stock recovery upon booting. You need to untick this, turn the S6 off after flashing and then boot directly into recovery using power + home + vol up
Nope. On the S6 auto-reboot menas what it does. The phone gets rebooted after the flash is done.
To the OP: You used the correct file to flash? USed AP mode in ODIN?
I had same problem. I think you need to have rooted kernel through odin first. Idk, that us what i did.
Just so everyone knows how I solved this. I wiped everything and flash TWRP and it worked. I am not sure why, but that's how I got it to work.
downloaded twrp 3, was running 5.1.1 on my phone and rooted it. tried to flash a rom and got stuck in a bootloop, now I cant boot into twrp, or anything for that matter. All i can do is hold volume down and power and home and try to ODIN a new bootloader or such and it just fails. what do i do? but when I try to boot into TWRP it goes into a blueish screen with a White exclamation mark saying "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the smart switch PC software. I tried to do that but it didnt even recognize the device. At this point i dont care about the data, I just need a working device
Okay, so I attempted to unroot and flash the stock 5.0.2 software and I got a error on the download screen. It says SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 3. BINARY: 1.
If you have no knox install MM official then flash this kernel tar file (AP) https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B40ItdHKfkyQcTA5bnRPWDg0X28&usp=drive_web#list it will boot to mm 5min :good:
Btw you cann downgrade from 5.1.1 to 5.0.1 you just go up not down

Happened to me a lot of times in the past few days trying to get MM, for some weird reason flashing Unikernel always works for me (takes me to recovery screen after, then i select 'reboot now'), and all my data, apps etc are still there

Okay guys so now I need a ROM to flash using ODIN. I tried to download from sammobile but the speeds are too damn slow. What I tried to flash was this file " G920TUVU1AOCG_G920TTMB1AOCG_G920TUVU1AOCG_HOME.tar.md5 " and i got the error 3 to 1.
Download Samfirm from here, XDA itself.
Run samfirm, enter model as G920F and your region code.
It will download from Samsung servers, so high speed.
Now flash using Odin the downloaded file by putting the phone in download mode, (vol down+home+power on).
How did it happen?
Did you try to flash the VOD 6.0.1 and got stuck towards the end at hidden.IMG failing the process?
If yes, then its a two minute job. Just open the 6.0.1 tar archive and look for hidden.IMG extract it anywhere and rename it from "hidden.img" to "hidden.img.tar".
Note flash this hidden.img.tar as AP in download mode, your phone should boot.
I've experienced trouble since trying to switch custom ROMs
After using TWRP to install the new ROM, my phone (920w8) wouldn't get past the Samsung flashing...
I've reinstalled TWRP via ODIN...but now my phone is stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S6, powered by Android logo...
I can get into download mode but the phone won't boot and won't enter recovery mode.
Any ideas?
thanks
Just flash stock ROM via Odin
Thanks...I reluctantly reached the same conclusion...
I have a backup of my apps and data, but it's just a nuisance to go back to stock and start over...
But, here goes !
I've been trying to flash TWRP recovery via Odin on my S7 (G930W8), however I would constantly get the verification error. Now I'm trying to reflash the stock firmware but it gave me a Fail on Odin. This is probably my fifth time reflashing the stock rom, and it worked previously today but then it decided it had enough and started giving me a bootloop I guess lol. But yeah, everytime I try reflashing the stock now it fails to do so. I'm absolutely sure I have the right firmware.
My phone is stuck on a bootloop now with the Samsung text and black screen. I can get to TWRP recovery via volume up, power button, and home button, but I can't really do anything there, not even full wipe as it tells me it couldn't mount or something. I can get to Download mode though.
Any advice? I'm really stuck right now.
EDIT: So it looks like this worked: I turned off the device via recovery mode, and then flashed my stock firmware.
Greetings, community
I had a hard time yesterday figuring out how to revive my Tab2... My device is (or was) a Tab 2 Wifi P5110 with the Germany 4.2.2 stock ROM installed.
I accidentially (...) flashed TWRP image with ODINs BL (!) option... (3.13) don't ask why... gave me no error... After that it wouldn't want to boot nor it wanted to go to recovery anymore... just a blank screen with backlight on. The only thing that still worked was the download mode.
So to rescue the OS I downloaded the stock 4.2.2 tar (Germany / DBT-P5110XXDMI1-20131118182728) and flashed it with ODIN 3.07 / AP. That worked without errors and after reboot the tablet booted normally to the GUI. :angel:
So far so good, but as I want to get a CustomROM to the device I wanted to get into recovery mode. I tried to get to stock recovery with Pwr+Vol- but the Android Robot didn't show up (I did before my BL-FLash... the day before) and I ended up with just a blank black screen (with backlight on). I tried flashing TWRP with ODIN 3.07 / AP with no other result.
How can I fix that? Have I destroyed some part of my bootloader (?) or bricked my recovery mode with that BL flashing action? What else can I do to get at least the stock recovery and/or TWRP back?
Anybody a glue?
Thanks in advance,
