I also try to recover with smart switch emergency recovery but failed, it gives me no emergency code
please suggest me as early possible, phone is brand new and just unbox it,
is it some kernel issue with new build ?
urgent help will be highly appreciated,
thanks regards

About the lights... i don't know what to say, it's strange.
Try to reboot to download mode again (Press Volume Down + Power for about 10 seconds to exit and after the screen goes black, press Volume Down + Home + Power to get into download mode again).
Download an Odin flashable custom recovery (TWRP or PhilZ) and flash it using Odin. In options tab of Odin UNCHECK Auto-Reboot. After installing, exit download mode and when the screen goes black again, press and hold Volume Up + Home + Power. Now you should boot into one of the recoveries you have just installed.
Now, download a custom kernel from XDA (it could be arter97 kernel, Adam kernel or any other) and install it in the recovery.
Now you should be able to boot.
P.S.: To install the custom kernel you have to transfer the file into the device somehow. So, if you install PhilZ, use sideload installation (it is located in the Install zip context in PhilZ) for the kernel zip, and if you choose TWRP, connect the phone to the PC, go to Mounts, disable MTP and then reenable it and your PC should now recognize the phone. Then transfer the kernel zip into internal memory and install.

Don't use the .img. Install the .tar.md5 of TWRP 2.8.7.2. You can download it if you search for zeroflte on www.twrp.me (devices).
Or you can try arter97's PhilZ Touch Recovery in .tar format.

Thanks villa for your suggestion, I update my 2nd post , pls read and suggest me

Hmm, I guess the system partition was erased even if it failed in Odin.
Install a Custom ROM (like Arrow ROM or Crisscross which you can find at Edge forums) and it should be ok.
The kernel would have worked if you had the system partition intact.

Did you wipe the Cache, Data and System before installing the file?
EDIT: After seeing the last image, I suggest reinstalling the bootloader. Something is not right with those lights.
https://drive.google.com/folderview...sharing&tid=0B40ItdHKfkyQd1hJQXVDU3dDU2c#list
Download this firmware. Before installing it with Odin, go in TWRP and wipe Cache, Dalvik Cache, Data and System. And then close the recovery mode and enter download mode. Be sure to use the latest version of Odin which is 3.10.7 (you can download it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3446301&d=1440131361). After checking is everything is set up, put all the files provided in the zip into the correct place and start the operation. And a note, to be sure it will be alright, put the phone on a table or something while doing the operations and do not move the cable while it installs in Odin, it might give you a fail.
P.S.: If at the end it will give you an error at installing the modem, do not panic, restart download mode and install only the CP file which contains modem.bin.

There must be a way to install the modem...
Try to extract the modem.bin from the CP zip and rename it to modem.bin.tar. Try to install it then in the same AP or CP slot in Odin (you can try to install it either on AP or CP and see which one works).

So now your phone works?
Well if now everything is ok, I guess I don't need anything more.

[Help] I soft bricked my phone, i am desperate.

I am so lost as to what to do next, i really need guidance.
I am offering a bitcoin tip or a paypal tip to whomever helps me get my phone to work ASAP.
So i was attempting to root my phone [GALAXY S6 - SM-G920F]
Got the file from: https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ which should've matched my Phone.
First attempt failed, got back into my phone everything is fine. Tried the same thing again, failed this time i get this message:
An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software." The logs for the times it has failed:

Tried connecting with Kies and Smart switch, none can find the device just keeps buffering and for smart switch it just say it's not supported. I am able to get into downloading mode, but that's it.
Got newest Kies, odin 3 v.10.7.exe however on my first go i noticed i had odin3 v.10.6 but now i got the latest i believe. After reading around i decided to try to fix it back to normal, so i downloaded my countries [sweden] firmware this one: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/confirm/57869/G920FXXU3COI9_G920FVDS3COI6_VDS/

And now i am here, i am truely nervous that i wont be able to get it to work.
Please Xda your my only hope. All i wanted was to free up space on my phone.. That's it.. :crying:
Ps. Worth mentioning, sometimes my usb is not recongnized and it flickers on and off (connectiong) but seems
to be fine most of the times and during the odin trials.

To root your phone, couldn't you simply flash twrp and then unikernel, like the guides say?
However, I'd try doing the following:
First of all, download the stock firmware for your version from samfirmware, then flash it via Odin (make sure the versione you download is the same you had before, or at least a more recent one).
From your logs, the problem seems to be pit file, so try reading here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916936
If not, completely delete odin and download it again, maybe trying with a different firmware.
If everything goes well, let it boot into setup wizard, then you will able to root it again, this time following the standard procedure with odin:
- Make sure "Auto reboot" flag is NOT checked;
- Flash the twrp odin-flashable file (can't post links here, but you'll find them in General section);
- Manually reboot into recovery (Hold power+home+volume up).
- Once you're into twrp, flash unikernel and reboot.
Your phone will be rooted

I just begain with youtubing easy way to root and i just said download odin, get the right firmware plug in an click odin.
That has failed and it's bricked, however i have tried to get my countries firmware, it didint work and produced my last log that i posted.
I am downloading another one there is two for Sweden however the other one says Sweden tre which is an operator over here and not one that i use so i doubt that will work?
i will attempt to download it but it takes 3h due to the limited speed at sammmobile.
So summarize, the sweden firmware from sammobile failed ;_;
What i do is, put phone in download mode, open odin, get the AP [Sweden from sammomobile] it finds it and press start, quickly after it says failed and i am back to square one.
I was reading the link you gave me about the pit files, it appears the error could be related to me having the wrong firmware?
I am seriously offering a bitcoin tip or a paypal tip to whomever helps me get my phone to work.

There are firmwares here for VDS.
Uninstall Kies and reboot your PC before using Odin.

Should i try all of those or just take the latest?
3H download, jesus my fiber is crying.

If you were on 5.1.1, then get 5.1.1
You can try the file you dl before. Just uninstall Kies before using Odin.

You dont need to download another rom dude...the problem is your usb dont get recognized and after a while it will disconnect...it happened to me aswell...searched on youtube did an easy fix and then i flashed stock rom with odin and joined marshmallow beta...
Tldr: search on youtube a fix for usb not recognized...i dont have a link sorry you have to search it by yourself its an easy fix..

Is it OK to flash with the latest stock roms? G920FXXU3? or should I flash only G920FXXU2? they are both 5.1.1 anyway.. If i flash with G920FXXU3, can i downgrade it to G920FXXU2? thanks for any help

You're fine with either.

@WaDoDem
First of all, calm down. Believe me it's harder than you think to brick S6 in a not fixable way
If Odin doesn't flash official roms or you just cant suffer a slow a** download speed from SamMobile :
1. Press and hold all of 4 buttons on your device. (Volume up + Volume Down + Home + Power) your device will reboot.
2. As soon as device reboots release volume up and hold other 3 three. (Power + Home + Volume Down). Your device should boot into downloading mode.
3. Download this :
https://dl.twrp.me/zeroflte/twrp-2.8.7.2-zeroflte.img.tar.html
4. Connect your phone to your pc and flash above file with Odin. As soon as flashing process finishes, hold Power+Home + Volume Up. Now your device will boot into TWRP recovery.
5. Wait for drivers to be installed. Your pc should show phone's internal storage as connected device. If not, go to TWRP Mount section and enable MTP mode. (Or if it's enabled, disable and re enable it )
6. Download this rom :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...rom-2013266107-arrow-rom-v1-0-0-fast-t3212318
And this kernel:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...nified-development/kernel-vindicator-t3156281
Then put them on your phone.
7. Wipe system,data,cache and dalvik cache from twrp.
8. Install Arrow Rom first and then flash Vindicator Kernel.
9.Reboot, first boot can take up to 15 minutes
10.Continue celebrating new year [emoji14]

sometimes if odin not working i restart my computer and put my mobile in downloadmode again and than i try again,most of the time it worked.....

If you think you can't find a wat at all, Samsung will help u. Download smartswitch to your PC and you can click in top corner emergency reinstall (or something like that) just put your serial number (as found on your backside of the phone)

4. Connect your phone to your pc and flash above file with Odin. As soon as flashing process finishes said:
Odin cant find the tar file.
I got odin 3V3.10.7 in options auto reboot and f. reset time are all bocked in is that right?
On files to download i am able to do, ap,cp,csc,bl neither of those help to find the recovery image that i am supposed to start?

I cannot use recovery since none of the numbers i have on the back of my phone matches the one i need to enter.
i tried device initialization that led to FAILED TO UPDATE DUE TO AN ERROR.
and then smart switch recommends emergency software recovery the one you were talking about but i dont know how to get my code.
I assumed you meant to input my phones IMEI however that did not prove to be correct.

Relax, flip your phone and on the bottom you'll see (barely visible) text. The last line it says: 'S/N:'
The code after is your serial number. So not your IMEI
The same code is found on the stickers you'd got with your phone

When i go to Smart switch Emergency Software recovery and input my S/N R58G52AMP1J
it says:
''Unable to find the recovery code. Check the recovery code in the PC's Emergency Software Recovery menu, or contact the samsung service center.''

To root your phone, couldn't you simply flash twrp and then unikernel, like the guides say?
However, I'd try doing the following:
First of all, download the stock firmware for your version from samfirmware, then flash it via Odin (make sure the versione you download is the same you had before, or at least a more recent one).
From your logs, the problem seems to be pit file, so try reading here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916936
If not, completely delete odin and download it again, maybe trying with a different firmware.
If everything goes well, let it boot into setup wizard, then you will able to root it again, this time following the standard procedure with odin:
- Make sure "Auto reboot" flag is NOT checked;
- Flash the twrp odin-flashable file (can't post links here, but you'll find them in General section);
- Manually reboot into recovery (Hold power+home+volume up).
- Once you're into twrp, flash unikernel and reboot.
Your phone will be rooted

If Odin says no PIT, he'll need to Odin the PIT file for his device first then Odin the factory firmware.
PS...I'm just browsing threads and stopped here, hopefully to help. I'll keep reading. lol

Did you get the appropriate PIT file for your devices Internal storage? It does matter whether its the 32 64 or 128GB version.

I just downloaded and tried the pit that above user posted.
https://drive.google.com/folderview...sharing&tid=0B40ItdHKfkyQd1hJQXVDU3dDU2c#list
It's a Galaxy s6 32GB.

Boot loop - verity verification failed

I have tried to installed marshmallow via Odin on my galaxy s6 SM-920F. It's not the first time I'm flashing a device but this time reactivation lock was on and Odin would not finish. Restarting the phone is not possible as its stuck in a bootloop and shows blinking "Galaxy S6" every time and recovery mode says verity verification failed. Didn't not know reactivation would do so much damage as I thought it would just ask a password in case a thief tries to flash the phone.
I searched everywhere but could not find a solution and hope to get some expert advice here. Please help

Get the phone into Download mode and flash the ROM again?

Flashing again won't help because of reactivation lock and there is no way I know I can disable that without entering the phone itself.

Eek. Tried flashing the original firmware you were running prior to trying to upgrade and doing a factory reset?
Might let you log back in and disable the lock.

Already tried reset or reinstalling current version. The lock won't let it happen. Upon restart the phone is stuck in a loop.

Reactivation Lock prevents only custom (not Signatured by Samsung) images to flash. So, you should able to flash stock ROM.
Did you try SmartSwitch?

Download the stock firmware from sammobile.com
Unzip the file then open the tar archive with 7-zip or winrar. Extract the system.img and boot.img from it.
Download and unzip this software:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bsreazoonsw4gwv/tar-Tool_Odin3-v3.07_by_mkh.mourad.zip?dl=0
Copy/paste the system.img and boot.img into the software directory and run the batch file. It will spit out a system.tar.md5 and boot.tar.md5 file
Flash the system.tar.md5 as AP with Odin then flash the boot.tar.md5 as AP with Odin
I recommend Odin 3.10.6:

The reactivation lock is a security to prevent use of the phone in case of theft. Will flashing the stock rom bypass that securtiy? Then it will be easy for someone to use the phone in case of theft.
Just to make sure i do it the right way, how do i know the exact firmware for SM-G920F unlocked version. Which country should I choose?
Is there some advanced software for repairing phone with software problems?

Try Samsung Smart Switch. It might help.
Bang in your serial number and it goes automatically.

No it will not remove the reactivation lock. If the phone is yours then once you get it to boot you should know the account login information to bypass the Samsung or Google lock.
I would just download the most current firmware for the phones original country/carrier.

Power off then hold volume up + home + power to get into recovery mode then do a factory reset > wipe cache > flash system.tar > flash boot.tar

For the time being, I can't enter recovery mode but only download mode. Any idea why?
When I charge the phone, only a grey battery logo with lightning appears but no indication that it is charging(green blinking dot at the bottom). Do you think the battery has been depleted completely?
And now it does not power on with the power button to show the samsung logo as it showed some time back, but I can still enter download mode. It's so confusing now. Wondering if a software issue is causing it not to charge as some hours back, it was fine.

I know how to use twrp and had root on old phons, but i dont have any idea, which bootloader is the rigt one :/

You don't need to flash the old bootloader anymore to flash TWRP.
Just flash this via Odin, and TWRP will be installed on your device;

DEAD GALAXY S8 [G950F] - CAN'T FLASH IN ODIN or ENTER IN TWRP!! PLEASE, HELP!

Hello! Yesterday I went to install TWRP on my Galaxy S8 to install a custom rom. In the tutorial, he said he should do Wipe on some things. I have and since then my phone is dead! I tried installing three different roms and none works.
When I flash the rom I have the following message:

I'm using Odin v3.13. The most recent I found.
I've already looked all over the internet and saw a video where you should click Start on the odin and then click on the three buttons to restart the device etc. That did not solve!
Please, can anyone help me? I am getting crazy!

Solution
1-. First at all run ODIN as an administrator.
2-.Boot on download mode.
3-.Dont flash (BL) for the moment select only AP and HOME_CSC to make a fast flash.
4-.When you boot successfully on your system go to developer options and then select "Oem Unlock".
5-. Download a zip called (no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip) for the S950F . Move the zip to your phone you will need that later to make work the TWRP.
6-.Boot on download mode again.
7-.Flash the Custom recovery.
8-.Boot on Custom recovery wipe all data.
9-.Reboot on recovery again
10-.Now flash no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip and restart normally
11-.Done!

1.-Boot on TWRP If you can. Select the option (Advanced Wipe Cache and Data)
2.-Select only (AP) MAKE SURE IS CORRECT FIRMWARE, you have the correct samsung drivers and you are running odin as an ADMINISTRATOR
3.-If that doest work flash only the bootloader (BL). if you successfully flash the (BL), then flash (AP).

Hi!. I was able to install an alternative ROM, not original by TWRP, but I happen to be without a signal, then I would go back to the original rom, but I get the same error every time!

Downgrade the Bootloader (BL). But you can install Z3 and repair the signal
***You can also flash the original modem.bin and you are go to go with the signal***
