Warnings on boot up:
KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit: kernel
(The phone has been rooted previously but has been unrooted, TeamWRP is installed)
I rooted my phone a while ago and tried loading a custom ROM. However I definitely installed the wrong ROM as the kernel that came with it would not work, I then installed a custom Kernel to get the phone to a usable condition. This has been fine up until recently when certain apps claim the phone is rooted or crashing unexpectedly and also claiming the phone is a security violation.
I'm trying to restore the phone to the factory Samsung TouchWiz ROM/Google Android Factory ROM with no errors.
I've checked for a couple weeks now and as far as I'm aware I haven't found anything that relates to my problem.
Any help will be deeply appreciated!

If you wish to return to stock then please take a look at this guide here. You should have no problems following the instructions.
Good luck

Attempted flash
UPDATE: I had a backup and was able to restore the phone to working condition however I am back to square one with the original problem

Soft Bricked Verizon Note 5 - can get into ODIN mode but can't flash latest firmware

I attempted to upgrade from 5.1.1 to Marshmallow but it softbricked my device. There is a white triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle and it says:
Software Update Failed
Your device didn't update successfully. Use the Verizon Software Repair Assistant on a computer to repair your device and complete the upgrade.
I can get into ODIN mode but I can't get the screen off. When I go into ODIN mode, it says:

So it seems it is failing when flashing system.img. Do I need a different version of ODIN? Is there another firmware I should be trying to flash?
EDIT - Got it to flash. I switched from a Samsung USB cable for an S5 to the one that came with my Note 5 but also I uninstalled Kies. I read on another thread that you should uninstall Kies before using ODIN. Because I did both at the same time, I can't be sure which worked but I suspect uninstalling Kies is what worked since the USB cable from my S5 isn't damaged and works fine for charging and connecting to my computer.

How did you uninstall kies if you soft bricked the phone? I got mine stuck in a boot loop. my "downloading" screen has the same info as yours. Would you mind sharing what ODIN version you used and what firmware, recover, kernel, etc you put in each spot within odin?

I have referenced the guide I followed. GUIDE. I followed all the instructions. After root I used the Debloater and my phone was incredibly slow and inefficient. So, I used the fix V15. Yet again, slow, hot and a whole host of problems. So, I follow the unroot guide. I continued encounter this error on odin when attempting to unroot.

I got frustrated and Held any button I could to get that stupid screen to go away. I was met with "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software. So, I go to do that. And the smart switch software does not support my phone. So, I boot into Recovery mode Wipe Cache, Wipe everything I can and try to reboot and I can only go from DOWNLOAD mode to recovery mode. I read somewhere on here that you can't Rollback firmware so I try the newest firmware and maybe that will work. I encounter no issues in ODIN and no issues on my phone Once my phone reboots it goes to the Samsung Galaxy S7 splash screen with the Unlocked lock and doesn't do anything past that. So I try to boot to recovery mode and that's when I get caught in a loop. My phone went from a flashing "Recovery booting" then if I tap a bunch of VOL UP/DN HOME and POWER combinations It will go to splash screen and flash the splash screen numerous times. I can now get it back to Download mode after messing around with it. But I have no idea what I need to do.
If I need to provide any more information let me know.

How Do I mark this as solved? I Used ODIN to update my bootloader to the newest version. then used the most current AP CP and CSC there is. It's booted up and installed. Now I'm just restoring and Going to restart to make sure everything is working correctly.

[Q] Note 5, not sure if its bricked

Hey guys, I've come into possesion of a Galaxy Note 5 that my cousins seemed to have messed with. A long while back I played with flashing firmware etc on my own phones so I assume that is what happened here. It attempts to start up, getting to the Note 5 splash screen then black screens, then splash screen and so on. I couldn't stop it without a hard reset (Volume down + Lock).
The phones details:
Samsung Galaxy Note 5 (was known working no more than a week ago) Product name: SM-N920I I saw version 6.0.1 somewhere in the menus, I believe this to be the current version of android available to Note 5 phones in Australia? I cant find the build number anywhere that I can access.
Has anyone got any clues? I'll include the ODIN screenshot and text from the phone in download mode. It may also be worth noting I can get into recovery mode, but not safe mode. I've tried wiping partitions etc, nothing there worked.

Like I said above, the phone was working fine last week, saw it myself at a family get together. He said something about not being able to play Mario Run, and I've heard there are issues with rooted devices with Mario Run so perhaps hes tried to unroot the device and messed up the process?
I'm fairly tech savvy, so I should be able to fix it. I just don't know where to really go from here thanks to lack of experience.
How screwed is this phone?
EDIT: I also just want to state that I couldn't find any info about the "SECURE CHECK FAIL : (BOOTLOADER)" message anywhere. A lot about aboot and other stuff, but no bootloader.
