Help Needed unsoftbricking Galaxy Note 5 T-Mobile SM-N920T - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5

I have rooted this phone and bricked it before, boy when will I ever learn, well this time for some reason Odin cant help me, I've tried and it always get hung up on nand. write then fails, I have tried switching usb ports, I have tried different stock firmware versions, I have tried different versions of odin, I have tried oneclick unroot, I am at a complete loss, is there anyone who can help me figure this out? I am pretty sure i didnt OEM unlock, and twrp is loaded on my phone but no OS apparently. i think i may remember ticking repartition with a sm-n920t pit file flashing with the stock firmware atleast once.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy Note 5
Model: SM-N920T
S/W: N920TUVU2COI5

Try downloading the stock firmware from another site. I use to have the same problem. Make sure you download the correct stock firmware that matches the model number on the phone.

Download N920TUVU2COI5 firmware or download the latest N920TUVS4DPH2 firmware or just use smart switch emergency recovery option it should work

Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
You will need to find and download your stock firmware and flash that through Odin.
The thread linked below has the stock firmware for different variants of your phone. I did not see the firmware for your R7 model but I did see a post that said the user successfully flashed the SM-G925R4 stock firmware on their G925R7.
SM G925 stock firmware
You can post your questions in that thread.
If you would rather find the actual stock firmware for your device then you can try going to Sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com.
There is also this tool that you can use to find your firmware, it is supposed to download faster than Sammobile or samsung-updates.
SamFirm Tool

[Completed] tmobile sgh-t999 s3 wont boot completely

I have a t-mobile s3 that was at one time rooted then updated to the latest firmware root was lost and never rerooted. I was running the latest update totally stock no modifications. The phone wont complete the boot it just hangs at the end where the samsung is going from blue to white. The phone will go into download mode and recovery however when i tried to do a factory reset on it it failed. The device is not rooted so i cant flash a rom to it. I dont know how to fix it. I dont know what version of odin to use and am not sure what rom to put on it or if i can even do it. I connected the phone to odin and it said s4 mini so I am thinking that is not the version of odin to even try and flash the stock firmware. any suggestions on how to fix my phone or if it can be fixed?
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
I cant post a link for you but you can go to Sammobile or samsung-updates and use your model number to find your stock firmware. I'm sure there will be more than one android version for your device so choose whichever you want, just be mindful of which ones are rootable or not if you want to root it again at some point. Then use at least Odin version 3.09 or newer, make sure you have the newest version of "USB drivers for Samsung phones" installed.
If you have more questions or need further assistance you can post your question in the forum linked below.

How exact a version of Odin do I need?

I have a SM-G930S S7 phone I just purchased. I finally found a CF version exactly specific to my phone, NRD90M.G930SKSU1DQJ1 , which just came out Nov 1, 2017.
I know this question may seem over-kill, but I'm getting pretty cautious in my 70's. It's taking longer and longer to remember what I'm doing, between the steps to go get the tool to fix it!
I have a file CF for the G930S, "J" version. Does Odin also need to be exact to NRD90M.G930SKSU1DQJ1 as well, or is Odin a general app which takes the specific ROM file?
Thank you.
ODIN is just a generic Samsung flash tool, always use the latest version for new phones / firmware
ODIN 3.12.10 is the latest I believe, but 3.12.3 or newer should work fine

Durham, thank you.
Off to rooting tomorrow.
I would look into CF a bit more too, might be fine but I have seen a lot of people having problems trying to root with CF (Bricked phones)
TWRP & SuperSU seems to be the preferred method
I haven't rooted mine so just going on what I've read here over the last year+ of owning the S7
Rooting the S7 isn't the same easy task it used to be with say the S5, encryption and other things that need to be disabled first
And make sure you enable OEM Unlock in developer Options before flashing anything custom, and DO NOT turn it back off again while you are custom or you will brick
That is the bootloader unlock

If you're trying to downgrade then the only way to is use the rooted combo by jrkruse in the Verizon forums. That way you can actually get into the phone. Using safe strap there's a flashable zip that will remove any Google account tied to the device

The firmware that you are trying to flash is giving you the sw rev error because that firmware is an older/downgraded version than the version that is already on the phone. You have to flash the firmware that is the same as what is already on the device or a newer version, you can't flash an older version. Find the newest, most updated firmware that you can find for your specific model number.
Do a Google search for:
"Stock firmware for SM-G935FD"
Then find the newest available version that is made for your specific region/carrier.
