Okay so I was trying to unroot my wifes phone and was told just to reflash the existing rom again. So after looking for instructions, I did a factory reset and wiped the cache, dalvik and system. I then tried to flash the 4.4.4 image again and it fails immediately.
So now there's no system on the phone and I have no way of flashing it. Can anyone suggest what I can do now?
To flash a stock ROM, you need to do it in fastboot mode. Which model do you have?
I was trying to downgrade and flash the shield factory image but i didn't backup and wiped everything, and i tried flashing in twrp and when i flash twrp just restarts and it won't work, I need help, anything in desperate need of it or i'll just end up selling this thing for parts, i can't boot the OS just bootloader and twrp
Hey people!
I got an issue with booting my phone. I've just flashed TWRP 3.0.2.0 on my sm-g920t, then I wiped my all data (I needed factory reset). Now, every time when I turn on my phone, it stucks on TWRP recovery mode and I can't set up my firmware, because it says there is no OS!
I have stock ROM. All I needed was the factory reset, but my system will not boot!
I guess I need a stock recovery tar file, because TWRP prevents me from using my phone. Does anybody have this file? I couldn't find that anywhere.
I just want to start by saying that I know how to recover my phone from this but I do not understand why this is happening. I just want to flash back the official rom and then install twrp and do a "factory reset" but after wiping with TWRP my phone gets stuck in bootloop. Am I doing something wrong?

In TWRP you did 'factory reset' there isn't that option so which partitions did you formated? If you formated system, then is no more OS on your phone so what you trying to turn? xD If you want flash stock then use newest Odin 3.12.7 and learn some guide how to flash stock depend from which version (f.e. 7.x) you're coming. The guides are on that forum.

It says in the title which partitions I formated (date, cache, dalvik). I know how to flash stock. I will explain again the exact steps I did:
1. Flashed official rom using Odin after having a custom one.
2. I started the phone to check that the rom works.
3. I flashed TWRP 3.1.1 using odin.
4.Wanted to "factory reset" using TWRP, so I wiped cache, dalvik and data partitions.
5.The phone starts in bootloop.
It looks like TWRP doesn't wipe the partitions as is should.
Is not possible to TWRP didn't wiped right partitions. Why you wanted to factory reset if you flashed stock and you got factory settings? Flash stock with Odin again...
You need flash latest SuperSU zip in TWRP to fix the bootloop issue

Maybe that. Personally I never flashed stock in S6 xD
You have to flash the SU Binary after flashing TWRP, else you will face a bootloop
Magisk. No "SuperSU". Then always will be it resolve if be only "Flashed TWRP". (Odin versions doesn't be affect of a bootlops with a 5secs~)
i flashed twrp now stuck in bootloop, not sure how to flash super su now?

Problem can also be solved after flashing the latest version of Magisk.
Hi there
I have flashed stock ROM 8.0, with the last Odin
After that I flash TWRP
I erase data / swipe phone to give TWRP the right to modify the phone
It's ok, TWRP can flash .zip, I flash Magisk
The phone reboot like after a factory reset, but the problem is, the phone force encryption again, because when I go back to TWRP after that, the partitions are read only....
It was ok with the 7.0 stock rom btw, but I don't knox what to do with this problem on 8.0. I have try no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0 and 5.1 but doesn't fix it.
