My Device samsung galaxy note edge SM-N915V (Verizon) is stuck in a bootloop, I cant get into settings to enable USB debugging so i guess the ADB install of TWRP is out( when i run the commands it just says device Null not found) What i need is a way to install TWRP through ODIN but I can't seem to get Odin AP tab to detect the IMG file for TWRP. It fails every time. I tried converting the file to a .tar.md5 with a script i found on the forums but it continues to fail no matter what I do ( switching USB ports, entering and exiting download mode etc) I am able to flash the original firmware from the phone from sammobile so I know I'm doing that at least correctly and using Odin properly but it's not fixing the boot loop issue. I was lead to believe that TWRP could be a solution to my issue by a helpful member here but he didn't tell me exactly how to use TWRP and this is above my skill level. I was lead to believe that TWRP was the direction I needed to go in but im not having much luck figuring it out on my own. Can someone guide me in the correct direction? Sorry if this is not the right place to be asking this. I'm rather new here.

You've enabled developer options?

I've searched for nearly 12 hours and tried several methods, but since this is an older device a lot of threads and links are dead. I was hoping someone could give me advice here, and I did use the search but to no avail.
The situation is I have a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (GT-P5113) and it's stuck on the logo and the sound it boots up cuts out half way (wondering if it's a hardware issue). I can boot into Download Mode and I have the drivers for it on my computer. The problem I'm having is USB Debug wasn't enabled. Is there a way I can flash through Odin3 and which version should I use? This device isn't rooted either. Any help or advice would ease my mind.

download a copy of your device stock firmware, if you already have it, flash it with odin, there is no specific version of odin, it works on all as long as your device gets connected and shows in odin you are fine.
regarding the hardware issue, it might be or it might be not, you can only be sure after successfully flashing a stock firmware file.
it won't need any USB Debug option for flashing stock firmware so you are safe to flash.
If odin does not work you may try going to the recovery and perform a factory reset and delete cache
Hey guys, I'm not particularly advanced in any sort of way with rooting devices, and I've followed all of the appropriate steps to achieve a rooted device but I'm sort of stuck.
I'm using Odin. I've tried Odin 10, 11.1, and 12.3. I turned Developer Mode on on the phone, activated USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking. I downloaded Odin and the herolte tar md5 file, added the file to the AP section in odin, checked the auto reboot and F. reset time boxes, connected my device and hit "Start." Two things happen: It either runs through the steps and end up with a red "FAIL", or it just gets stuck at Setup connection. I have tried 3 different versions of Odin, and yes, my phone OS is fully updated. So what gives? Can anyone help? I'd really appreciate it. Been trying to root my phone for hours now and no luck. I've tried to use a bunch of other help guides but Im either not advanced enough or I've had no luck. Thank you!

Hi mate
The odin version is not working yet for Nougat , you have to use SuperSU v2.79 SR3 zip ( flash with TWRP) Instructions in the same thread
Well this is a hard one, if you can fix this I will give you a unsolicited service. I am a former iphone user who is used to the simplicity of jailbreak, and wanted to try to install a custom rom.
This did not end well as you can see in the title... and I was stupid to believe it was as easy as Jailbreaking.
After failing my go at installing devbase v5.9 ADB wont recognize my phone, so I can't flash stock TouchWiz to my phone.
I have searched the web for 1 and 1/2 days now, and I hope someone can give me some guidance.
And I can't flash with Odin because of ADB not finding my phone.
And it's Kernel is not seandroid enforcing, wrong title.
- not a prostitue.
Odin shouldn't need ADB, just for the phone to be in download mode, does booting to download mode not work?

Thanks, so that's not the source of the problem. But Odin gets stuck at SetupConnection, I have installed samsung drivers.
Nwm. sorry was using Odin wrong.
This is a good overview of how to use it http://updato.com/how-to/how-to-install-an-official-samsung-stock-firmware-using-odin
I assume you figured it out?
Hello everyone,
so my phone is soft-bricked after failure attempt to flash combination files in order to fix the csc.
I follow this thread, but the problem actually has nothing with that.
I used the latest patched odin V3.13.1, with a combination file named COMBINATION_FAC_FA80_G965USQU3ARG2.tar, and the proccess failed at flashing the system, and now i'm stuck; unable to flash other firmwares.
Before that, the phone was working perfectly after I've flashed a G965U1 firmware on it, in order to get rid of the bloatware of the original branded G965U (I don't live in the US).
Also, it successfully OTA updated to the latest G965U1UEU3ARK5 Firmware just a few days ago.
Things that I've tried so far with no success:
*Used different usb ports, both usb 2 and usb 3; and different cables
*Using both an Intel-based PC, and an AMD-based. (I know it may sound unrelated, but thats actually what prevented me from flashing the G965U1 fmwr the first time I tried, because i was using and AMD PC)
*Reinstalling Drives, installing latest kies, installing latest samsung smart switch
*using older versions of Odin
*tried to install the original Sprint firmware (v2) G965USQS2ARF4 through odin
*tried to install the G965U1UEU3ARK5 firmware through odin
The phone is stuck in download mode. sometimes if I disconnect and reconnect it, I get an unrecognized usb device message. so I need to reboot the phone again to download mode so the pc will recognize it.
and the result is always a failure:
either due to rev check, with the original OEM firmware
during the installation at 'vendor'/'system' step, due to auth error, when trying the G965USQU3ARG2 Combination file or the G965U1UEU3ARK5 files with patched odin
or even before that step with older versions of odin.
I'm out of ideas... I hope someone here has the knowledge to help in some way, Please...

Guys at imeigurus has a service. Check on them. Those guys have access to special Samsung firmware that they can manipulate Samsung's as they like. They do what others can't, they can support you remotely using teamviewer. But snap the download pic here let me see
show me your device in download mode

OK so that's how it looked like:
download-mode
after writing this post I realized that I haven't tried flashing an OEM rev3 firmware
so I downloaded one after finding out which one is the right file
and I tried flashing it on a completly other pc than the 2 I've already tried it on
and it worked:victory:
here's the recovery after the successful flash:
recovery
Hi all,
I've got a Galaxy S6 SM-G920I which will boot to : An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software.
I've installed the latest Samsung USB drivers to my PC.
I've installed smart switch and it says my device is " Unsupported Device " . I also updated smart switch to latest version and that made no difference.
I recently deleted 2 important video files by mistake.
A call to Samsung reveiled that there is no way to recovery deleted data from phones internal storage...
A bit of googling lead me to believe the data is still there, its just not visible. Here : https://howtorecover.me/data-recovery-internal-storage-android-phone-guide
So i'm following this guide and get stuck at the > su command. a bit more research reveals I need to root my device.
So I followed a guide on this forum to install latest version of twrp, odin, and magisk.
I reboot and I have root access to the phone.
I continue the guide and fail to proceed after the command > fdisk -l
So I install busybox, and grant it root access.
Command runs but has no output....
At this stage I decide to give up and initiate a system recovery from my phones settings.
Which lead to an endless boot cycle showing the Samsung logo.
More internet research lead me to believe downloading a stock firmware from sammobile might help.
So I downloaded G920IDVU4FRH2_G920ITEL4FRI1_TEL firmware and discovered the instructions on that webpage do not match the extracted content...
So I think that what I feed into odin was the wrong stuff and I've bricked my phone.
I can also access my phones download boot option, and thats all at the moment.
Comments and suggestions welcome
Found the solution here : https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS8/comments/6nb51r/galaxy_s8_odin_flash_fail_softbrick/dk94krm/
Open Odin, place all the necessary files into their slots.
Go the the options tab, make sure "Auto Reboot" IS ticked.
Press "start", but as soon as you do, hold down Vol down+Bix+Power on your phone. Odin will fail and your phone will reboot into download mode again. Now press "Start" in Odin again, and your phone should flash without a problem. This might take a few attempts to get right, but I hope it helps.
At all flash new rom
