Need help unbricking phone. - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Canadian Version SM-G920W8 (Manitoba Telecom Systems). I tried to use Kingroot (apk, downloaded and installed directly on my phone) and my phone restarted. It is stuck at the start screen where it shows the Samsung Galaxy name and logo, but in the top right corner there is a message that states:
"Kernel is not Seandroid Enforcing"
I was on 5.1.1 firmware.
Can anyone provide me with detailed instructions on how to factory restore the phone (since I assume the problem can't be fixed otherwise). I don't know where to download the firmware from, but I did download Odin3 v3.10.7 and installed the latest Samsung drivers. I'm on a Windows PC with Vista installed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I don't mind donating to someone if that helps.
Thanks.

The message "kernel is not Seandroid enforcing" is normal in Root.
Recovery and Factory Reset or flash this firmware with Odin:

Hello! Thank for your answer. I flashed twrp with Odin and get in recovery. I got photos and videos pulled with adb. Now I would like to flash stock firmware.
Phone model is SM-G920F and I bought it from Finland. I have android 5.1.1.
Can't find stock firmware with those infos. There is no finland version for 5.1.1. Can I use for example UK version and just change keyboard and language to Finnish?
Greetings,
Matias
Yes you can. But is there a posibility to not find finnish language
Sent From My Galaxy S6 Duos
It worked and I also found Finnish language.
Summary:
Problem:
I tried to root my GS6 (G920F) with CF Auto-Root. It went to mode where I was only able to go Download mode or phone tried to boot but it stuck on the samsung logo and on right upper corner was text "Recovery Is Not Seandroid Enforcing". I could right flash a stock firmware but I was fearful that my pictures and videos will be deleted.
How did I fix it?
1. Connect your GS6 to computer with USB cable and download Samsung USB Drivers.
2. Make sure you have enabled USB debugging.
3. Download Odin and TWRP (First I tried many versions of Odin and TWRP but none of them worked. I finally found versions which worked ((found on highonandroid article: how to root galaxy s6 with twrp recovery) also pm me if you need it).
4. Put your GS6 on download mode.
5. Flash TWRP.
6. Download Android SDK Tools.
7. Open Windows Command Prompt.
8. Go to adb folder with "cd" command. For example mine was "cd C:/adb".
9. Type "adb devices". Then "adb pull storage (and folder where you want your pictures and videos)". For example mine was "adb pull storage C:/backup".
10. Now your pictures and videos are safe (should be found from folder you pulled/DCIM). For example mine was C:/backup/DCIM.
11. Download a stock firmware.
12. Flash it with Odin and you're done.
I am new to this but if you have any kind of problems with this, pm me! I'll try to help you!

Help Needed SM-G920F

Samsung Galaxy S6 UK, Locked To Vodafone
SM-G920F Android 6.0.1 (I maybe incorrect)
Basically I tried to root my phone and It seems I bodged it.
I used a guide called 'Root Galaxy S6 G920I and S6 Edge G925I on Marshmallow and Install TWRP' on Droidviews. (I cant post links due to me being a new member)
After completing all the steps my phone was stuck in an endless loading screen loop.
I then used the backup I created via the guide.
After that was completed I restarted my phone and got a message in red text in the top left hand corner of the screen saying 'recovery is not seandroid enhancing'.
I then started to panic as this is a new phone so I did a factory reset on the device.
This changed nothing.
Please help me as at this time my phone is bricked.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
(I know about a potential method via Odin but I dont want to do anything without specific help in case I don any more damage)
Anyone?

Hi, I'm a noob and I broke my phone. I have a Galaxy S6 SM-G920F that is rooted, it also have TWRP recovery on it.
Basically I was in TWRP recovery and I Advanced wiped internal memory. I downloaded the correct OS firmware off Sammobile and tried flashing it using Odin v3.10.6, everything looked fine and dandie but halfway through the installation something went wrong, I think either the phone or the software crashed I really don't have a clue but now my phone has this blue error message on the screen saying something about Emergency Software Recovery. Thanks in advance

Problem with Rooting S5 Neo on Android 6.0.1

Hi there,
I'm in the process of rooting my S5 Neo running android 6.0.1 and my phone is now stuck with the bootscreen "RECOVERY IS NOT SEANADROID ENFORCING"
The model number is SM-G903W (Canadian Koodo version) and I got the root package from autoroot chainfire
I did all the dev options (usb debugging, unknown sources etc) and used the Odin that came with the package from chainfire. Even though Odin says pass, my phone is now bricked on this "RECOVERY IS NOT SEANADROID ENFORCING" screen.
Please help
solution
I do not know if you finally solved when your device was broken when it was rooted, the same thing happened to me and I could solve it by installing a custom recovery and then the official operating system through samsung tool pro. Now I have Android 7.0 that I just updated and I want to root it too.

problem samsung on5 sm-g550t Tmobile softbrick

good afternoon forum friends, recently I have had a big problem with a samsung on5 sm-g550T from Tmobile which will install the twrp, then proceeded to root to install the foldermount app and pass data from the games to the sd, the problem is that after the root and install the app the phone suffered a softbrick since it did not go beyond the t-mobile logo, I made a noob error and from the TWRP I made a total full wipe , after that the phone when it came to the samsung logo remained the black screen.
I have tried to solve flashing the following firmwares with odin 3.11. - 3.11.1 and 3.12

https://firmwarefile.com/samsung-sm-g550t
https://mega.nz/#!6pIVWKqb!AwIAAAQhFwGEcbVSx6FShLuaoCWB9JMTWCVqWSaak0U
but all give me error at the moment of starting the process of flashing the odin mark fail, I leave captures of the error and the exact model of the team, also try flashing only the recovery first extracting the same from the Md5 with the 7zip but now the phone every time I turn it on, it sends me an error in red letters that you can also see in the capture. The truth is that I am getting desperate and I run out of ideas if someone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it.
