Hi all
need some help
I have tried to update my samsung s6 sm-g925k model ,
It had a Vietnamese 5.01 firmware ,tried to flash it to 5.1.1G925KKKU2COH9_G925KRTC2COH9_G925KKKU2COH5_HOME.tar .md5 using odin 3.10.7
all looked ok , after odin rebooted my phone , it said "erasing"... and rebooted again and since then it is stuck on samsung logo
i can access to download mode , if i soft reset the phone (volume down+power)
tried to re-flesh again with no luck
seen a similar post regarding Samsung 6 edge on xda , with a link to sum .tar file that needs to be flashed to solve the issue
has anyone faced this kind of strange behavior and managed to overcome it?
So I tried to root my Samsung Galaxy S6 today using TWRP and it got stuck in a boot loop. I went to wipe to cache and accidentally wiped to system. So now there is no OS installed. I know I need to somehow put an OS on the device but I'm in Canada and when I go to samsung's site to download the firmware, there is no Canada option. I bought the phone off of amazon and it came with a European wall charger because it was imported, but how do I know what firmware to download?
Also, when I have found the right firmware, how do I flash it onto the device? I can no longer access TWRP, all I can get is the downloading screen thing. Can I use Odin/how do I use Odin?
Somebody help me I'm panicking because I broke my brand new phone!
You should check the Amazon listing to see which model number you have. It's probably SM-920F.
Once you have the correct firmware downloaded, Google a guide to flashing Galaxy S6 firmware with Odin. There are a lot of them out there.

On the back of the phone it should say which model you have, for example G920F, G920W8, G920P etc.
Download the proper firmware from Sammobile, then follow the tutorial that the following thread has a link to.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841
If the variant you have is the European model, G920F, I recomend you install the unbranded firmware.
IMPORTANT! MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE PROPER FIRMWARE! INSTALLING THE WRONG FIRMWARE CAN HARD BRICK YOUR DEVICE!
I really hope this advice helped!
Really important is only that you pick the right model to download. The region isn't that important. Go to sammobile and download your stock rom, but be sure to not pick a branded one, because they are full of junk.
Also, you must use ODIN in that Download-Mode. Open ODIN, plug your device into your pc and see, if ODIN shows up your device. If yes, select "PDA" or "AP" (depending on ODIN Version) and select your ROM that you have downloaded. Then click on start. Don't touch your phone, your cable or your computer for best results. Wait ODIN say "PASS" with a green background. If this occurs, your phone should restart and after 10 mins or so, it should boot Android.
I did the same this as the OP, now I am stuck on the main "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Powered by Android" screen. I can boot into TWPR and into download. I have tried flashing zip from external SD card with USB-OTG with no luck, I have tried flashing from Odin, multiple Odin versions tried, multiple usb cords tried, multiple computers tried.. all result with <ID:x/xxx> Can't open serial(COM) port."
No matter what I do, I can't seem to get anything to take, not stock firmware or otherwise. Any suggestions.. donations for anyone who can help me solve. lol $$

In odin under options untick Auto Reboot.
Flash Rom
Phone wont reboot once rom has flashed successfully so you will need to do manual reboot.
Go into recovery mode and wipe data.
Reboot phone
that should help let us know if it works
wifi wont turn on
hi, i managed to install the firmware but now the wifi and bluetooth wont turn on, wifi toggle and bluetooth wont go on, it looks like is trying toget on but after 20 seconds justgo back to off. idont know what to do .........
I can't even get any firmware to load as odin continually stops within seconds of starting to flash phone, no matter what firmware I choose it's the same result failed flash?
I bought a used samsung s7 Sm-G930F but after using the phone for some days i saw an update release so i decided to update it but after download the update it couldnt install it due to some error i dont know is talking of. So after some days to went off and it couldnt come on. So i decided to flash the firmware BTU on it through odin3 but after get PASS in odin3 it keeps gets stuck on SAMSUNG. I have also try factory reset wipe cache before even doing the firmware flash. Also i try downgrading to 7.0 and 6.0 but didnt work. Please help am guessing am missing something. I also notice something when even i boot the phone in recovery mode and plug to my system, my system recognise as SM-G930S, while at the back is written SM-G930F. Pls provide with any possible solution to this issue.
Used phones are often rebranded as other models to try increase resale value. If it says G930S in download mode then that's the phone you have. If you tried flashing G930F software you've probably soft bricked it.
You could try flashing again but using G930S software.

Thanks for quick respond. In download it says Sm-g930f.but if i plug it to a system in recovery mode it shows as Sm-g930s. So am really confuse. And 8 have flash it with Sm-g920f firmware several times it keeps getting stuck on samsung logo sometimes it even load up to where i start setup with googke account and alk that but getting stuck again and couldnt respond at all.
Hi all, i need your help! my s10e (SM-G970F) has bootloop in screen ``this phone is not running samsung official software``, **NO COMBINATION KEYS WORKS** i cant acess recovery and DownloadMode HELPPPPP!!!!
after passing the AP on magisk and flash on odin, he bricked
I didn't do anything wrong, I downloaded the version with the correct binary, flashed magisk and flashed odin, simple and normal, I had done it before. but now I'm 100% bricked
**************** NOOB SOLVED THIS xD
luckily I flashed only the AP, my download mode was intact I just needed to know access, lol
HOW TO SOLVE :
DECONNECT THE USB CABLE
HOLD BIXBY & VOLUME - (DOWN)
PLUG CABLE IN PC
OPEN SamFirm and download stock firmware (YOU PHONE MODEL / REGION) > SM-G970F / ZTO in my case
CHECK <auto>, CHECK UPDATE, DOWNLOAD!
to brick your device you know how to use odin, i don't need to teach xD
to those who already know it may seem useless, but whoever is in a tight moment will be necessary
deserve a like? hahahaha
SOLVED!!!! I ask the moderator to keep the topic active so that other users can be helped

Hi,
My phone is stuck on A51 logo for days now
it charges - I can enter download mode easily - I can sometimes enter recovery mode some other times it doesn't let me
I tried flashing different stock ROMs of android 10, 11 for the phone with different security patches. it ends with success but the phone is still stuck
tried wiping data / wiping cache no luck
I can't boot the phone to OEM or FRP unlock it but i know my gmail address and can unlock it if there was a way to input it
so how can i solve this
(my phone details)
it was on the latest update for june's security patch - Egypt
model number A515F
Same here, but how can you enter in download mode? I want to try to flash original rom aswell.
Has anyone found any information on this yet??

What is your problem exactly? If you are experiencing bootloop even after installing stock via Odin then it's possible your motherboard is dead.

I had a Galaxy a51 5G with cricket, and I am unable to get it to communicate with the Odin tool and I also keep running into an error saying a driver prevented this device from loading
Yes my motherboard was dead. However it has a problem which you can just heat the cpu and retry booting .. it will actually work for months but then die again
