URGENT HELP NEEDED PLEASE;
Can you please help my buddy Tyler, he just got the T-Mobile Note 5, and he rooted it, and installed TWRP Recovery, and flashed a ROM for the first time, but he's afraid he may have bricked his device ?
Here's the thread I have been coaching him at. Any opinions ?

Thank you.
As long as he knows what he's doing and has a unlock bootloader he should be fine

He did get the whole root thing figured out, and his phone does have SuperSU installed, he then installed TWRP Recovery through Odin, and is running the latest Modem COI5.
He downloaded a T-Mobile ROM, and Arty97 Kernel, flashed the ROM + Kernel, and he said been stuck on the boot screen for 25 minutes, and can't get back into Recovery.
Suggestions ?
Actually never mind after reading that whole thread I would reccomend download the stock rom and then flashing it . This happened to me when I flashed the wrong framework for my device. It got stuck on the same screen . I flashed in with my stock rom and it went back to normal and I didn't lose anything.
Tyler made this comment, can't seem to even power off the phone.
amn, you really are trying to help. That's awesome. Sadly however, the thing won't turn off no matter how long I hold the power button.
I saw one thread on reddit that suggested downloading a stock ROM and flashing through Odin. But, I can't find a stock ROM and I don't think you can flash ROMs through Odin.
He did manage to get this after trying to power down./
[/QUOTE]
Now what he asked ?
Tell him to put it into download mode then flash his stock rom . I Googled it and found it super easily and even found instructions
This is Tyler, the guy Zorachus has tried so hard t help. I've been googling for stoc ROMs but haven't found any to download. Can I flash a ROM through Odin?
I'm iPhone jailbreaker guy, so all this Android stuff is new t me.
I want to post the link I found but I can't because this site has a 10 post rule to post links and I haven't done 10 posts and don't worry this is my first Android phone . I've been jailbreaking since 4.1.2 so the switch was weird for me too haha but yes you can flash flash a rom through Odin
Here:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/56127/N920TUVU2COI5_N920TTMB2COI5_TMB/
Make sure it is the correct model and follow the instructions.
Don't worry, you should be fine.
If he got stuck again, hold down volume up and down and power at the same time and it reboots

Just the volume down and power does the trick ?

I had this same issue, I found out that TWRP did not actually flash the rom so the phone sat on the boot logo with no OS to load, then read up on arter97's kernel and he recommends switching to PhilZ touch recovery instead of TWRP. He provides a download to this recovery on his thread I do believe. Luckily I had downloaded the recovery and simply flashed it via TWRP (Hint: while I was stuck on the boot up logo, the only thing that worked for me is holding Vol-, home and power, then as soon as the screen goes dark, switch from holding Vol- and hold Vol+ instead, wait a bit and recovery should boot).
Once I got Philz touch installed, I rebooted the recovery and voila, no more TWRP. I simply flashed the ROM through it and rebooted again, back in business.
So to conclude, I get the feeling you're experiencing the same problem, where you went wrong is using TWRP with the arter97 kernel.
EDIT: You're in luck! Go here: http://arter97.com/browse/exynos7420/kernel/5.0/n920tw8/
Grab the tar.md5 file and flash with Odin with the phone in download mode, then reboot to new recovery and flash your rom again

Hey thanks!!!! You saved my a$$ I have been dealing with this for 6+ hours now & couldn't get past the boot logo & your suggestion worked! I <3 you! Lol
Thank **** I found your post mate, I was stuck in a never ending boot loop with no way to get into recovery either.
The trick about holding down Vol-, home and power, and then switching to vol+ at blackscreen but keeping the others down, that thing worked and I was able to make it into my recovery!
Sadly however I made the most foolish mistake of all in my hurry and went for a factory reset.
On top of that I don't think that Titanium Backup was set to auto sync on my new phone so I might possibly have lost everything I have. Let's find out.
Hi, after doing some flashing via Flashfire (xposed and the mod from the only mod thread on the G Flex 2 forums) I had a bootloop. I tried restoring via LG Flash Tool, but I kept getting stuck at 9%. I did a hard reset via button combination, the phone did boot and keeps on working perfectly, a lot better than before, with everything seemingly fully functional.
So I continued my search to find something that's broken and decided I'll try flashing directly from internal through recovery to fix the 9% problem, but I couldn't boot into recovery using the button combination. The combinations for displaying the IMEI and hard reseting still work. I downloaded quick boot and rebooted into recovery, just to be greeted by the red triangle exclamation mark.
I can keep on using it, but it just pisses me off + I probably won't be able to flash Android M when/if it comes out.
So, any suggestions? H950 5.1.1 PR.
TL;DR Phone's ****ed up and recovery's corrupt, halp plox.
Use flashfire to flash recovery.img if you cant find any ask somebody on your device main thread (or you can try cwm with rom manager from playstore)

Yup, exactly like rogconnect said. So, anyone any other ideas? : D (Shameless self bump)
Ive been running KangVIP with no problems, however I got some adware which refused to go away, so I attempted to factory reset via the phones menu. It then ended up stuck at the TWRP screen. This has happened before so next I tried to restore a previous backup...not successful. I can't access fastboot and rescue to flash the official recovery.
Anyone got any help? Is there a guide to flashing the stock rom or have I borked my phone?
You can not shut down the device and connect it via USB to a PC and boot while holding volume down button into fastboot mode?
Well then you have ruined your phone.
I'm OP, was unable to get into my usual account last night. I'm not sure how, but holding volume up, down and power seemed to kick start it back to life and I'm back running KangVIP. I don't think I'll be resetting it again for a very long time.

I'm not sure whether it was luck or not, but all I did was to go into TWRP and then chose the Mount option, unmounted everything, then went to Reboot and chose Bootloader - that got me back to fastboot where I was able to flash the stock recovery, do a factory reset and get my phone back.

Not able to get into TWRP recovery, stuck on "Your device is booting now..."
Hey everyone,
I just unlocked my bootloader and now want to flash TWRP and SuperSU. My Phone is already Nougat with Emui 5.
The Problem is that I'm just not able to enter the recovery. When pressing volume down + power or trying "adb reboot recovery" in the command line, the phone starts in the "unlocked bootloader warning screen". But not like in the normal warning screen it doesn't give me options but just shows a white line saying "Your device is booting now..." and thats where it gets stuck. Only gets hotter...
The fun thing is I already was in the recovery but wasn't able to flash the SuperSU (r275). Maybe it was not compatible with Nougat. TWRP just couldn't mount various things. After reflashing the recovery below instead of some other version (don't know anymore) I'm not able to enter the recovery again.
Feels like I searched the whole Internet and there is nearly nobody with the problem or a solution. Tried this as well: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/honor-8-boot-to-twrp-recovery-lost-root-t3567462. It seems like nobody who published a Honor 8 + Nougat + TWRP + SuperSU "How To" acutally tried it himself.
I used this TWRP https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563
Please help me I can't use WhatsApp because I need to restore it with Titanium (Database way doesn't restore all chats... Other problem)
Thanks everybody I just can't stand this anymore
I had this issue after downgrading to EMUI 4.1 and upgrading to 5.0 again via twrp. I flashed some old 3.0.2.0 version from another developer. Booted into that, flashed the update.zip package for emui 5.0 and then i was able to successfully flash and boot into 3.1.1.0

Thank you I got it!
So I got my L09 with Nougat/Emui 5 on it. Then just used TWRP from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70228949&postcount=252 (bootable, think ist ist 3.0.2.0) then flashed 3.1.1.0 from https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563 (bootable) and finally flashed SuperSu from first Link again. Other SuperSU versions (like the phh r275) WERE NOT flashable.
Magisk is the most compatible root solution for the Honor 8 on Nougat. The only thing that doesn't work (seamlessly) is MagiskHide, but the root itself works and flashes fine from TWRP.
I have tried to flash twrp multiple times to no success. I have tried multiple variations of the tool but for some reason when I go try to boot into recovery it takes me to erecovery which fails to do anything.
Are you sure about button combination
If you're trying to boot in to recovery with your phone plugged in to the computer it will także you to erecovery. If only i could find the person who całe up with this stupid idea that caused me hours of struggles, they'd pay for it. also when you use the pwr + vol.down combination let go off the power when you feel the vibration and further hold the vol.down until you see the boot screen appear.

I tried this like 20 times but this time it worked! I know have TWRP working. weird think tho is that no keyboard or default Huawei apps are preinstalled and BT isn't working.
Few problems with Binary SU and BusyBox
My phone seems to be rooted. Titanium Backup works but I have to accept every App instalation manually. With other settings restoring gets stuck. Also SuperSU reminds me every time that my BinarySU needs an actualisation but fails if it tries. And finally BusyBox just isn't able to get itself installed.
I'm thinking about restoring stock firmware, update to Nougat, and flash the two TWRP Versions and SuperSU again but hate to spend ours on my phone. OnePlus One rooting was sooo easy...

Is there a number of times you have to do it? How should I transition from this stupid "Your device is an enemy of the state" screen to something that will connect to adb?
Hey guys...... i'm lost wih this phone..
I followed the guide on unlocking and rooting the nokia and now i'm stuck.
I followed each step without any issues so i don't get it..
First i unlocked the bootloader
I sideloaded TWRP and flashed magisk
Rebooted and flashed TWRP..... no problems there..
Reboot again and it goes straight to TWRP...
Did a factory reset.... Still boots directly to TWRP
Tried to flash stock rom with OST, selected the nb0 files.... and connected the phone when it asked.....i see a progress bar but it doesn't move at all
Tried SP flash tool, that doesn't work at all, as soon as i connect my phone after loading the scatter file i get an error:
ERROR: S_BROM_BROM_DOWNLOAD_DA_FAIL (2004)
I rooted and flashed many many phones but never had so much issues as with this one...
I hope anyone can help me out, i can get into bootloader and recovery

Just Plugin your Nokia 3 to a charger or USB connection, and try your button again!
