[Completed] S6 Edge hard brick! "Recovery is not seandroid enforcing". Download mode not possible

S6 Edge hard brick! "Recovery is not seandroid enforcing". Download mode not possible
Hey fellas,
Searched long and wide but haven't encountered anyone with a problem like mine.
Got my S6 Edge today and I flashed it with CF autoroot. Insta-brick!
I can NOT turn it off. Only "reset" it with Vol down + Power, but it immediatly goes back to the black screen saying "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge" and in little red letters "Recovery is nog seandroid enforcing".
Any fix for this? Literally can't think of anything. Let me know, thanks in advance!

I got my edge (925F)2 days ago, i wanted to flash 51.1 , i had 5.0.2 with root on it. I flashed 5.1.1 but it got stock at the "Galaxy S6 edge screen" aswell..I can boot it into Download mode and recovery mode. I tried flashing other roms, without any luck. I installed twrp to wipe dalvik cache, i installed a rom with 4 tar files, (includin the bootloader) but it didn't help.
I think that the phone's bootloader is messed up.

SOLVED!
I managed to get into download mode through some button work (short release). Download Kies3 and go go Tools -> Firmware Upgrade and Initialization.
Knox tripped still but at least the phone works. Let me know matey!

Soft Brick + [KERNEL][0719][5.1.1/BOFE][3.10.61] V Kernel

Hello, Newb here so go easy.
I have a Samsung s6 Edge on the Sprint network SM-G925P and have soft bricked it. Originally on build ol1 Lollipop 5.1.1
Here is the rundown, I rooted the phone to be able to utilize Linux etc. Everything was working great for over a week then the phone gave an error and forced a restart.
Once restarted it just stuck on the Samsung Screen, went to boot recovery via vup, home and power. Wiped to factory settings. After the wipe it was stuck on the Powered by Android Screen.
ADB'd TWRP on to the phone, realized the phone wasn't mounted in any fashion. Mounted data, cache, and system went to reboot and was informed the phone did not have an OS and was not Rooted.
Then attempted to do this [KERNEL][0719][5.1.1/BOFE][3.10.61] V Kernel
Followed the directions on this http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...elopment/5-1-1-stock-of7-kernel-root-t3153396 downloaded the kernel from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=35511 flashed the kernel via ODIN 3.10.6 clean clear easy install.
Rebooted phone, stuck on the powered by Android Screen - boot looping, playing 5 tone sounds repeatedly every 30-45 seconds. Allowed the phone to run this way 3 times for 12-15 minutes each with no change.
And lastly now in the top left of the screen it states "Kernel is not seandroid enforcing"
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Add'l Info
After reading a little more about my phone theres a few things I forogt to mention.
The Phone did accept the Kernel and also recognizes the root as it no longer notifies me no operating system found or the phone is not rooted.
The message in the top left corner also alternates occasionally.
Sometimes it will say; Recovery is no seandroid enforcing and others it says Kernel is not seandroid enforcing.

I would say try to Odin the firmware but OI1 firmware hasn't been released and samsung said within the update that you can't roll back firmware once on OI1, so you may possibly be stuck until it's released
ol1
That would explain a lot and also why I couldn't find the OL1 Kernel anywhere.
Would it be possible to use someone else's restore that's still operating on ol1.
I've seen people to mention it on older Galaxy equipment.

Helping a Newbie unbrick his phone

Hey Guys,
I kinda semi-followed a tutorial which basically got me to download a rom from chainfire, load it up in Odin and jobs a good 'un. Whilst that was successful, I didn't read too much more in to it (not rooted since s3 and it seemed to be that simple back then!).
Now I'm using a Galaxy S6 UK on o2, it was previously on 5.1.1. G920F
When I load up the phone its stuck on the s6 screen and says "recovery is not seandroid enforcing"
I can still access recovery mode through odin, but I can't seem to find files that will actually work for my phone.
Am I completely boned or am I panicking too much at 2am in the morning?
Cheers guys(&gals)!
Edit: fixed, I download a file called G920FXXS3COK5_G920FOXA3COK5_G920FXXS3COK5_HOME.tar.md5, restored it with Odin and was all good, only a 9 hour download!

please help .. kernel is not seandroid enforcing ...galaxy s6

hello guys ...
I used the King root program version 4.81 While working on the program Reboot phone and stuck (kernel is not seandroid enforcing)
please help me I do not want the loss of phone I'm very need for the files within the phone
don't worry this message appears everytime once you have updated your kernel
If you have any issue just put your phone in recovery and flash a clean firmware.
I've done that several times and still have it. I'm on G920r4 stock rooted. But then again there is nothing for my phone. The rom is mmb29k.g290r4tyu3cpb4. I flashed a kernel for my phone when I first rooted and it won't take it. It stays on the black Samsung screen

i bricked my sm-g935f

hey guys, i think i really did everything wrong about rooting...
i tried to root my s7 edge with odin, so i flashed the newest twrp and that worked but my phone wasntn rootet, so i flashed magisk v16 from twrp after and got stucked in the samsung logo and my idea was to flash lineage 17.1 and superSu and now my internal storage is no more shown in twrp and my phone now is not even stucking in the samsung logo anymore, it stucks in the really first "samsung Galaxy edge screen" and even twrp stucks in booting screen, only thing working right now is download mode
i did everything youtubers told me and i still stuck in this screen and wanna know if theres a solution, or is there no chance left for my phone?
ofc i havent done any backups..
so at first, pls dont judge me, im really new to the scene and on youtube everything looked so easy and the second thing is my language
my english is not that good
is there a way to completely go back to stock and stock kernel or might the internal storage got damage by all the things ive done?
couldnt find any solution on xda or youtube
Try to boot into twrp again.
Flash encryption file (no verify opt encrypt 6.0.zip) for internal memory. Think this is your problem. Your memory is encrypted.

Hey,
I actually had kind of same problem when I tried to flash stock ROM,
I got pretty much everything wrong when I was trying to make it boot again,
so I almost bricked it.
Only download mode was working and TWRP couldn't boot,
So I left it until battery drained and phone turned off,
after that I plugged the phone into a PC, opened download mode and flashed only BL, CP and CSC in odin, one by one.
I skipped AP because it got stuck every time I tried to flash stock ROM,
But flashing TWRP was always successful.
So I flashed TWRP, successfully, and tried to boot,
and it booted, it took several restarts but it actually booted.
If you boot into TWRP you will be able to get it to work again,
by repairing or formatting partitions and flashing stock ROM after that.
