Greetings and welcome to xda. The seandroid message normally means you have a custom recovery installed. Can you enter download mode or recovery mode at all ? If you can get into download mode flashing the latset firmware for your device with odin will fix your issue
Good Luck

Hi guys,
I just recently attempted to root my Note 3 using Odin3_v3.10.7 then CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar.md5 so after downloading and installing using my version (SM-N9005) it's stuck at a screen saying:
RECOVERY BOOTING....
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
SET WARRANTY BIT: RECOVERY
So what I have done until now is:
1. I have been trying to get the Note 3 into the download mode removing battery, wait a few seconds replace battery and
hold down the volume down+power+home key at the same time but it keeps automatically rebooting to the screen above.
2.I have read many posts on this forum looking for solutions, but have not found!
I understand that knox perhaps his work is going to do and therefore runs everything down. Maybe I'm wrong.
Is there anyone who could help me to get my phone back on track please!
Ok, so I tried to root my phone using odin and cf auto but at the end of the process when my phone got rebooted I was stuck on the logo screen for ages and this small red text showed at the top saying something like recovery is not seandroid enforcing. So after searching through solutions I tried formatting the phone but when I tried to go into recovery mode it just rebooted back to the logo screen. So I then tried to reinstall the firmware but after doing this Odin said failed and then my phone got rebooted and is now stuck on the message "An error has ccured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software." But Samsung Kies and Smart Switch says my device is not supported and when I try to go into recovery or download mode the phone just turns of and goes back to the error screen. Can anyone please help me. This is a new phone and my parents would kill me if they found out I screwed it up already.

Put your phone in download mode and use odin to flash ROM. It will work.
Good luck
1) smartswitch or kies wont work at all because you already tripped your knox
2) recovery is not seandroid enforcing <- this text shows you have custom recovery installed.
3) you possibly didnt turned knox off. settings>lock screen and security > find my mobile> there will be an option to switch it off
now solution
1st of all you havent bricked it! its soft bricked and not hard bricked(hard brick wont even turn on)
what you can do is let the battery drain off totally charge it and try to put it in download mode > odin > flash stock rom first(important step).
from there try to turn it on if it does you great. and dont use cf auto root if you are not familiar with it download some other roms which are way better than stock touchwiz,pre rooted and way better than it(like the note5 rom for s6 by arter).
by the way keycombinations >
downloadmode = vol down+home+power to switch off download mode vol down+ power only
recoverymode= vol up+home+ power
if you can put it in download mode follow my steps and hopefully you can,just keep trying

My phone wont go into download mode. When I press the button combination, the phone reboots and goes back into the screen saying the software error again. And the first time I tried to flash stock the phone is how the error message came up.

Ok so I let my phone completely drain of charge, then the second I put it on charge, the phone goes to the software error screen. Download mode just reboots phone into the error screen and recovery mode doesn't seem to do anything. Ill see if Odin recognizes the phone though
Ahm probably you missed something that could help you resolve your issue in much less time.
1. Press Vol Down + Power Button for 5 seconds until it reboots. After the screen is off then quickly switch to Vol down + Home + Power button to access download mode.
It is the key combination to safemode but it your case, it will just force restart your phone. No need to drain your battery.
2. Maybe most of the newbies always missed this part before doing anything to their phone. Backup (either on smart switch or Nandroid*best option)
3. You need to have proper samsung usb drivers installed and check in odin if your phone was recognized.
The only thing I see from your first post is that the firmware installation (odin) was interrupted. Please let it finished installing before doing anything in ur phone. Check faulty usb ports/usb cables to ensure your pc/laptop works well with ur s6.
Let us know how if u still encounter any issues.

do as the guy above said in 1st step thats a key step to put it in download mode
Thank you guys
The phone is all good now. It turns out that the software error screen was also the download mode. So I flashed the stock rom and everything is fine now. Thanks for the help.

Even though knox is tripped you can use smartswitch.
I know this because I have done it.
I rooted my phone, installed custom kernel, etc.
I then broke the screen, and since it was a hardware issue, I got it covered by my phone provider. (I am in Aus, we have different warranty laws compared to the USA.)
But I had to return it to stock. So I used Smartswitch to do so, even with knox tripped.

Greetings and welcome to assist. The message seandroid is not enforcing is normal, it just means you have a custom recovery installed like twrp. If you connect your phone to kies and select emergency firmware recovery it will restore your phone to stock
Good Luck

Hi guys,
I just bought a S6 Edge (SM-G925i) via eBay. I now know why it was that cheap, it does not do a lot
What does work is getting into DOWNLOAD MODE.
In the download mode I get the following information:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G925I
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
REACTIVATION LOCK: OFF
Secure Download: Enabled
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0x0500)
AP SWAEV: 8 : 3 K : 2 S : 2
I downloaded the official G925IDVU3FQD1_G925IXSA3FQC3_G925IDVU3FQC5_HOME.tar.md5 from Sammobile and installed it with ODIN (selected AP and process run to 100%).
But after this my phone keeps rebooting with the "Samsung Galaxy S6 Powered By Android" logo.
I cannot get into RECOVERY MODE (VOLUME UP + HOME).
I tried to install TWRP. It seems to install but after that I am again stuck in the "Samsung Galaxy S6 Powered By Android" logo.
Is it dead or are there things I can try?

Hi !
You should also try to restore the phone with Samsung official tool : Smart Switch
http://www.samsung.com/fr/support/smartswitch/
It's available for Mac OS and Windows

You cannot use Smart Switch when you only have DOWNLOAD MODE available.
Hi there,
This also happened to me today, I was just normally using the phone (internet and stuff) and suddenly went to reboot and got stuck to logo.
I tried flashing the stock rom, but no luck. Reboots and back to samsung logo. (or download mode, not even recovery is working).

Eish okay
I just gave up and took it to some service store to see what happened.
I'll ask him what happened and how he worked it out and let you know.
thanks alot waiting for your advice
same here
You said you tried to go to recovery by pressing vol up and home, you forgot the power button.
It's : power + up+ home. Try again.
And if not working, and only download mode available, use Odin and flash the software for your phone. Download the files from samobile (btw it will slow download , really slow)
We all tried flashing stock roms, as we said before. This is not the problem.
The problem is the DRK (device root key). It's all messed up.
This is beyond my phone skillz.
If you want you can try this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/how-to-repair-device-root-key-drk-sm-t3297383
I just took it to a phone repair store and he told me that the DRK is messed up and some other things.
I have 2 Galaxy J7 Crown (SM_S767VL). I used Odin to bypass FRP on one but when i flashed the 2nd i guess i used the wrong Combination File and now it is stuck in a bootloop at the phone model screen. ive tried every possible way to stop the loop. When i try to boot into download mode (Vol- + power + home) it boots into maintenance boot mode. Its like download mode doesnt exist on the phone. i cant boot into safe bc the bootloop. cant normal boot bc of bootloop. ive tried 300k and other programs to try and force download mode. but bc the loop is so soon in the startup my pc doesnt have time to recognize or connect to the phone before the phone restarts. I dont know what to do. Ive watched video after video read article after article. Please help. Any advice. Tips. Suggestions. or ideas are greatly appreciated.
