Galaxy note edge wiped and can't install any ROMS

hello all,
I'm a noob and i messed up my note edge. I rooted it on stock kk 4.4.4 rom from Rogers and installed superuser and twrp. I wanted to do a factory reset through the settings and reset and erase everything but it won't allow me to. Every time i select erase it would just do nothing. Do i thought I'd be smart and enter twrp by holding volume up, home, and power button then wipe everything. Now when i power on the phone it just boot loops with the original Samsung galaxy note edge splash screen. I am unable to find the original rom for my N915W8 Rogers phone so i read I'm done forums a T-Mobile rom should work. I downloaded a lollipop T-Mobile rom and tried to flash it with Odin but comes up as fail. I tried to put the zip file into my external micro sd card and use twrp to install and it failed again. Any help is greatly appreciated. My end goal is to be able to get the lollipop Rogers rom with root back on my phone.
Thanks

Enter Download Mode and use Odin to restore the stock ROM.

Thanks for the reply. I tried ODIN but unable to flash. It fails right away.

Any other clue? I think the problem is I have no data in my phone. I am thinking it needs some base to work off of. Please don't laugh at my logic lol.

Rooting attempt on S6 G920F running on 5.0.2

And I think I flashed CF-Root correctly. Tried to boot, Recovery is not seandroid enforcing. I then flashed TWRP 2.8.7.1 (the .img one) and now it proceeds to recovery after boot screen.
I tried restarting to system with TWRP and it went into a bootloop.
Am I on the right track? I mean is it supposed to be like that until I do a factory reset? I'm scared cause the ROM is still downloading lol how do I put it in the device's internal memory? Will I be able to in Download Mode?
On a PC running Windows XP right now, Samsung's USB Drivers don't seem to work whatsoever. I'll try it on my laptop and we'll see.
(p.s. should I have opted for the one-click rooting and stuff? Idk the guide tells me to do it via Odin so yea lol)

Since you were on 5.0.2 you could've used the PingPongRoot to easily root your phone. I did that but then after a while I thought I want a custom ROM so I updated to 5.1.1 and tried to use odin to root my phone but got the same issue as you.
After a few hours of struggeling I got out of the bootloop by doing an emergency software recovery from Smart Switch. However I'm not sure if it will recover to 5.0.2 or download the latest 5.1.1 in your case.
Nonetheless when I got my phone to work again I just flashed UniKernel with TWRP and then I was rooted.
I wont touch odin ever again I'm too nooby for that and it caused me to panic so hard with that goddamn bootloop.
I hope you get it solved!

HELP ME please.

I can flash the backup although it gets stuck at yellow boot screen. but that does get rid of the seaandroid enforcing

If someone could help me as well I'm having a similar problem. I have tried using multiple Odin versions and many stock SM-G900P 4.4.2 firmwares from multiple sources, but always have the same messages pop up.

USB debugging is on and Odin does recognize the device is connect, I have also already installed the drivers again just to be sure. I have used Odin before with no trouble maybe its the fact the phone is from sprint and on lollipop since sprint is stingy on unlocking -_-. If someone could point me in the right direction or 100% working firmware links I'd appreciate it. I have also tried going about this through Heimdall and failed not even being able to obtain the pit file. If someone could provide a working one I'd also appreciate it I am fully aware it may brick the phone as everything else may do. Or show me the me the step by step to flash with Heimdall with a .tar. I'll take any advice thank you

you can try the newer firmware ok4
maybe this will work . unzip and place md5 in ap slot of odin

I have the same problem myself and it took me a few minutes to realize what the problem is. I just got a new phone from Sprint because my other one the USB port was basically broken I couldn't connect or charge. So after a few failed attempts at flashing a ROM I decided to look at my firmware and realized that it was the new updated bog1 version. Sprint decided to lock all the boot loaders so as of this moment I don't know how to flash any ROM or downgrade as the bootloader will not let you. As a matter of fact just last night I was walking into Walmart I pulled my phone out of my pocket to look at it and it was just finishing up installing some security policy updates. My phone then immediately restarted and got stuck at the spark screen. Just the fact that I was rooted sent my phone into a boot loop. As of right now the only thing I can do is reflash the stock bog 1. I have managed to get access to this one and I'm working on modifying the bootloader in anyway I can. I'm a little newer to this but I catch on pretty quick. As of now I have all the permissions unlocked for me to access all the files in that stock bog1 rom but haven't found a way to make them stick yet. I'm going to have to break down each individual file and hopefully I can come up with a solution or anybody for that matter because I'm a few months away from my contract being up and if I can't root my phone and customize it I don't want it. If they want my phone lock down and toddler mode then they can pay for it that's how I look at it lol. Make sure you turn off automatic security updates. There's also a post in here of how to clean that out so you don't have the newest security policy update. I know the exact file the bootloader is in but haven't found a way to get into it or modify it yet even though I have permission. It shows it copying /deleting but doesnt change. There is way too many people in this world to not have someone come up with a solution by now and anytime I search for it I get results from a year to five years ago , hardly anything recent thanks google. I also posted on times and started a thread I'm trying but I'm not as advanced as some of these developers on here but I am determined lol

I finally got it to boot up. Just took like 20 mins. Now it boots sometimes while others it won't and says process has stopped responding after the yellow screen. Why does it do this. The rom is official rom directly off Samsung kids.

may have cracked bootloader BOG1 G900P
i have been playing in thr sys files and today i managed to get a custom animation boot installed. after that i flashed a modded bog1 file from philz. it took and succesfully booted and am now reinstalling all my apps. i think i over wrote or blocked my bootloader. ill get back when i know for sure:laugh:

Virus is still there after formatting

Good evening all.
My cousin just brought me his galaxy grand prime G530H and the phone was booting but very slow. He asked me to format it for him. So I hard reset the phone and wiped data but when I started the phone, the virus is still there and the phone was not working properly it even has a launcher of its own (hola launcher). It looks as if the virus became part of the system. I'm not able to uninstall it. The only thing I was doing is to disable it. But once I connect to the internet, the phone hangs and I can't do anything. What is the solution. is there a way to wipe it. This is the first time I see this. anyone had this issue before. Please need your assistance.
Ok here is another update. I tried to flash it with original stock rom from sammobile using Odin. I load everything and click start.
the writing fails with the following error

Anyone can suggest anything
Not sure if had applied an update that caused to become like that but this is my only conclusion and my cousin is saying that he did not do anything. Is there an image that I can restore it with that will undo this

Ok guys Please ignore my problem. I was able to find the solution in another thread and found the correct flash and flashed my cousin's phone and now it has been revived. Thank you XDA

[Completed] ODIN failing to downgrade firmware

So, i have been trying my luck to downgrade my firmware on Note 5 (N20G - India) since 6 hours and must have hit the 'start' button on ODIN close to 50 times already but it's failing each time. Basically, i want to downgrade to get a better battery life on my device. Currently i'm on Marshmallow with firmware version N920GUBU3BPI5 (INS). The firmware i want my device to be downgraded is N920GDDU2AOJ5.tar (Lime pie). Few things i would like to share:
- My device is not rooted
- Running on stock firmware with stock recovery
- System status is Official
- FRP lock is OFF and USB Debugging is ON
- I tried changing the laptop as well as the port and i know the cable is not faulty as it is connecting in the 'Media' mode and charging the device perfectly
- I also tried flashing other ROMs belonging to the same country but i'm still getting the same error
Here's the log on my ODIN (3.10.7)
