So I just rooted my S6 for the first time, and I'm not very experienced in rooting. I used ODIN to download, and did as told in the website here at galaxys6root.highonandroid .com/galaxy-s6-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s6s6-edge-on-android-6-0-1-marshmallow/ This meant my phone has a TWRP custom recovery but a custom one made by ManhIT, and I was successful in rooting, just that each time in recovery I do a system reboot, it hangs there so I do a force reboot which leads back to the lock screen just alright.
Then I wanted to download Xposed Framework, so I followed this tutorial to download it on Marshmellow 6.0.1: android.wonderhowto .com/how-to/install-xposed-framework-android-6-0-marshmallow-devices-0166278/
youtube .com/watch?v=B3qbY2CWz5M
I did everything, downloaded Xposed Framework for ARM64 Marshmallow devices but had to find the latest version, v85 for it and this is where the problem started. I went to TWRP recovery mode, and went to flash the xposed framwork zip, and clicked system reboot (of course it hanged, so force reboot), and since then it always has been stuck on the Samsung logo screen. I went back to recovery mode, did a factory reset, wipe all data, format data, and it still gets stuck on the logo screen.
Please please please please help!!!!
UPDATE: A possibility of this problem is due to having "No OS Installed".
what I would do if I were you is:
1. Smart switch emergency initialization to restore phone to factory fw with sn of the phone (upper right corner in SS menu) (connect phone only when you are asked, otherwise it will say your device is not supported)
2. flash CF autoroot for that model https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/
3 flash TWRP downloaded from https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxys6.html for that phone model
and see what would happen (offcourse I would check after each step if the phone can boot)

I fixed it already! I think what it was in the end was the lack of OS. Should've backed up my data before doing anything funny. Installed my OS again and bam my phone is up and running again :good: (had to delete the URL from this reply as I'm just a junior member)

I am having some serious troubles with upgrading my Galaxy Note 4 SM-910P (Sprint). All was well in rooting, un-rooting, etc... I have the original 4.4.4 and the new 5.0 backed up and now I can't use anything other than the firmware the original firmware package through Odin. The problem started when I installed the [ROM]ViSiON-X N4 SPR 5.0.1 [Android L 5.0][N910PVPU1BOB7-R1][03-11-15]. It installed fine but when ever I was not watching it a problem occurred such as getting locked out of ny ext SD, or just plain un-rooting itself. It finally came down to it just kicked my device into download mode and would not reboot. I did used chains Odin root method and installed TWRP, which I can still do but can not flash or restore from TWRP or CWM recovery. It will take the firmware package fine and download the 5.0 update but always gets stopped from any other upgrade at recovery be it stock or custom. I have even used Kies to try and upgrade a few time. It will upgrade from NK1 to NK2 but still will not upgrade anything else past recovery. Every time I reboot I lose my WIFI password. After every boot it takes a minute for any network to be able to reach the device. It is paused until I re enter my WiFi password then it will say that Android is done upgrading and there is a toast message that says "device is set to factory mode some items won't work on this mode set device to user mode". Can someone please tell me how to set my device to user mode or erase what ever is lockled in my device between download and recovery. The issue I described with the device wanting to stay in download mode and how to handle it is described her http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59372208&postcount=3 but as I mentioned I can't get passed anything that is not firmware through Odin. If I had to be locked in one version forever I would have preferred it be 5.0
I figured it out

I fianlly figured out the deal with TWRP not flashing.
The change between file systems is what TWRP won't flash.
To flash into the new, the old, or back up property check the file type.
Ext 2, Ext 4, F2FS, etc ...
To get recovery to load install from odin with auto boot disabled, remove battery, than vol + - menu and power.
the steps below..
1. Power off (complete) boot to download.
2. Load Odin, uncheck auto reboot, PDA TWRP. after it installs pull battery to exit.
3. Boot to recovery - wipe- advanced wipe -Repairor Change File System - Check System (go thruough each)
4. Repair and change each to the file type you want to flash
5. repair and or change the files for the zip you are going to flash
6. you have done all the rest before ....
Issue resolved, thread closed, thanks.

5.1.1 means your phone has a sytem write protection, so it tried to reboot into recovery itself after auto-reboot => bootloop.
Do you have TWRP installed?
If not, flash Unikernel (you need a custom kernel with this bootloader) and TWRP, then use TWRP to wipe/factory reset and flash any ROM.

Use TWRP to wipe cache/dalvik and do a factory reset-
did you check the ROM you used was for your special device, and checked its md5-sum?
I personally would try downloading another one and flash again; once it works, do a backup in TWRP; very easy and done in 3mins.
Maybe you should try to manually log on to your network to see if this works first, in "network settings" tap the line to automatically choose your provider; should be it.
I used 4-file G920FXXU2COI1, after reboot phone not started so I flash Unikernel via Odin, now phone is turned on, but sometimes touchwiz was stopped, maps was stopped etc, phone find my network, but I can't logged
After wipe in TWRP phone stuck on Samsung logo
As the title already states my Galaxy S6 ( SM-G920F, 6.0.1, rooted) only boots in TWRP and I can't get out of that recovery boot loop. I already tried flashing the stock ROM but I get the SW REV CHECK FAIL DEVICE 4 BINARY 3 fail. Are there any ways to fix this, possibly without losing all my personal data(if not I'd like to know how anyways)?
I can access the download menu and I also tried wiping the Dalvik/ART Cache.
I tried this stock ROM: G920FXXU4DPIL, Switzerland(AUT)
Thanks for taking your time
EDIT: I haven't tried ADB since I'm not sure how to use it correctly and I don't want to screw up even further.
Hi mate that error means that the stock firmware you are triyng to install is a lower version than the one on the device, go online and find the most recent version, as for the data just boot to twrp make a backup of data partition, connect the phone to pc twrp as mtp turn on by default and copy the backup to pc, after the flash just reinstall twrp and restore.
Hi guys, not sure if I'm in the right thread (please move me if not admins)
I was running superman on my s7, I decided to clean out my phone by flashing stock firmware and then reflash a custom rom.
The stock flash went well as expected, checked oem unlock and USB debugging then I flashed twrp 3.1.1
My phone was then stuck on the 3 logo (I flashed h3g csc while stock flashing) for 15 minutes
So out of lack of patience, I rebooted my phone, now it's stuck on a boot loop splashing the Samsung boot image then resetting with a vibrate and this is constant.
I managed to open twrp on the phone and thought a wipe might be in order, did that and FAILED, without me rebooting it rebooted itself.
Then I tried to reflash stock firmware in Odin, again that failed.
Still stuck in a boot loop.
I know I've screwed up but any advice would be grand.
Thanks guys :good:
right, fixed the issue.
went into twrp, wiped the system by typing 'yes'
wipe dalvik, data and system.
rebooted into download via twrp and flashed stock rom again
works fine
all because i didn't uncheck auto reboot in odin when flashing twrp..... D'oh! :silly:
i iz idiot

I am somewhat confused with your writing, or you write the wrong information.
1. Wiped system in twrp as long as I know do not need to write "yes".
2. Twrp is not download mode, it is recovery mode
#Btw, this should not be in this section
Best regards,
Quick one for you, if you ever can't get to twrp after bootlooping. Press and hold power+home+vol up. Let phone reboot but keep holding buttons till it reboots a second time and then you will get download mode.
tHIS IS RIGHT SECTION FOR QUESTIONS AND DIALOGUES ABOUT s7, so proceed pls.
Trying to get TWRP installed on an old S6 (with no SIM card), on the way to getting a newer Android on it.
Device is freshly factory reset, I do not believe that it has ever been rooted.
Per
, I have been using Odin to load twrp-3.3.1-0-zerofltespr.img.tar. Odin indicates success, but after that, if I try to get into recovery mode to use TWRP (volup+home+power), I get a blue "Installing system update" screen, then a "No Command" screen. It then drops into the stock Samsung recovery screen (zerofltespr7.0/NRD90M/G920PVPS4DRC2) instead of TWRP.
Did I miss a step? I saw something about the stock boot writing over TWRP, but the sequence of operations to avoid it did not make sense to me.
Found the missing step in
Needed to uncheck Autoreboot, then VOLUP+VOLDOWN+MENU+POWER.
