Bricked S7 Edge - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hi All, first post here and I'm 90% sure this is the wrong thread but I can't post in the ROMs, KERNAL, RECOVERIES thread....
Let me get to the point, I have a Galaxy S7 Edge (SM-G935W8) that won't show anything on the screen at all. No backlight or anything. I've tried using Odin to reflash the original ROM but keep failing on the re-partition. (Holding vol down, power and home will enter download mode and a solid blue light shows. The PC does recognize the phone but ADB doesn't since USB debugging wasn't enabled.)
Any ideas or is the NAND completely shot?
Thanks.

Tried repair via Smart Switch?

It tries to connect then says unsupported device. Emergency reset asks for a key...

ADB being enabled has nothing to do with Download mode, as Download mode is independent to the firmware
Make sure you're using ODIN 3.12.3 or newer, and that the COM port on ODIN is showing as connected
It's not 100% that the phone is entering DL mode though if you have no display

Key is your device serial number iirc
Back of phone

I can get it to connect to ODIN.
COM port shows along with "Added!" but it always fails at the repartition step. (I'm adding all 4 of the files at once I believe that is correct?)

Yep that's correct, are you trying to flash the same CSC or different?
Different CSC you might need to check the "Re-partition" option in ODIN settings as they can be different sizes
But no display in Download mode = Not a firmware problem, almost certainly a hardware problem

Alright, looks like I'm buying a parts phone and doing some surgery tonight. Thanks for the help!

Good luck

[Q] Phone not showing up on pc while in download mode

I have the samsung galaxy s 4g. First off it can get into download mode, with the yellow triangle. Second, It's recognized in normal mode i.e., mass storage, samsung kies, media. Odin also recognizes it in normal mode as 0:COM. Though when starting in download mode windows tries to install it but fails and says usb not recognized. Also Odin no longer shows it as 0:COM. Any suggestions?

Well I updated my phone through Kies to 2.3 but I think it messed up so I'm trying to roll back my phone to 2.2 through Odin

It is not as easy as just using ODIN to flash back. Why do you think it is messed up?

The answer IS out there, I found it when I first started... But, here's the spoon:
1 Start Odin, plug in phone while it is off and battery out
2 hold the volume up/down buttons and insert battery
3 If Odin does not recognize phone then, reinstall the drivers
4 Repeat steps 1 and 2

Can you see enough of the screen to root your phone? I would recommend rooting it, downloading sgs kernel flasher, downloading a cwm kernel, flashing it, then reflashing through cwm stock gb and see if it fixes it. It might be a hardware issue though. Have yet to hear somebody say their screen stopped working after using kies.
Use the first link in my signature for detailed directions, links and downloads.
You don't need to **** with ODIN. I recommend my method. No ODIN
It's a bad download... Happened to me when I first updated to 2.3.6 via kies...

What won't let you root? SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse? I just did it today.
Make sure you are patient with it.

Just dawned on me... You need to make sure you have enabled USB Debugging Mode for SuperOneClick to work.
On the device, go to Settings > Applications > Development and enable USB debugging

[Q] ODIN, can't connect in download mode, but onnects to switched on tablet

Hi guys!
I can't root my gt10.1 2 ((( When trying to connect it via odin - it shows nothing...
I rebooted device, pc, closed Kies, tried different usb ports, laptop - the result is 0 - odin cant see my device.
The most interesting thing is that odin can see my device when it is switched on
I really broke my brains trying to solve this problem)))
Any ideas???
P.S. Sorry for my bad English)))
odin flash back to stock
i recently succesfully rooted gtab2 p-3113 and lost all my apps including play store. after much searching found your link for odin flash to stock.says successful but my tab will not boot past pulsing samsung logo.please have patience with this noob question. HOW DO I FIX IT ? thanks guys, your threads have helped me succesfully root htc inspire,droidx2 and samsung illusion. your posts are invaluable. thanks again
You pressed volume down to confirm you wanted to enter download mode, right? Also, what OS are you on?
I couldn't get odin to work in download mode on my Win7X64 PC. I had to use another XP PC. Win7X64 works for some people, maybe it's a hardware specific issue.

Unplug tab.
Run ODEN as admin.
Plug tab in ODEN should show it connected.
You need to enable usb debugging, go to settings > developer options > usb debugging

Agreed.if that doesn't work try to put it in another USB.sounds dumb but I couldn't get mine to connect and it worked for me.I'm pretty sure it has something to do with drivers and if you put it in another USB it will reinstall different drivers.I'm on win7 64 also.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App
^I doubt that, if it shows up as a usb device (if you can go to my computer and access the files for both the sd card and device) then its not a driver issue --mine showed up as a mp3 player (???) but it still worked. And then also as others said make sure you right click and run odin as admin. Good luck!
Actually if you dont speak english well i'm assuming you're not from america, I wonder if it could be a problem with a foreign version of windows (just a guess)
---------- Post added at 04:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:01 PM ----------
Actually just thought of this, You say you closed kies right? because for odin to work and programs like odin you need to plug your device in, close kies and then open odin. I think your issue may be that kies isnt actually closing, check your windows status bar in the lower right hand corner, a lot of manufacturer programs like kies dont actually close, they go into "device monitoring" mode. So if you see a small kies icon, right click and close it then open odin...

Galaxy s6 stuck at boot? Unable to fix

Hi xda members, im new in here and i was hoping for a bit of help
My phone is galaxy s6 SM-920T
I was reading on the net when the phone powered off and started restarting and restating again and stuck at book logo "powered by samsung".
I am not able to go into recovery mode but i can open the os download mode.
Tried many times with odin and no luck
I think due to the phone being full encrypted by me nothing can be done, is there any posibility? Thanks
The same here. I cant get into recovery. I had Terminator Rom installed. I can get into download mode but odin doesnt detect it. I eventoght the usb door was damadged so paid 60$ do replace it at samsung. But odin still doesnt not recognize it. Odin does recognize my Samsung Tablet 4.

I've had cases where you had to put the phone into download mode THEN open Odin for it to be seen. Maybe try that.
With it in download mode and plugged up open devices and printers and scroll to bottom and see if it shows up. Would be called gadget_serial. Some computers take a while to load the drivers for it as well. You may want to click little popup menu on bottom right of desktop by the time and date and see if it shows it is loading drivers for it. It will not show up until the gadget serial drivers are installed.
Thanks for the help. Nothing worked. It doesnt not recognizes the S6 only my Galaxy Tab 4. Could it be that the usb door wasnt repaired proprely ? Windows doesnt even detect the phone no gadget_serial. Nothing.
Make sure that You're using USB 2.0 not 3.0. My Note 4 worked through usb3.0 without any problem. And S6 doesn't. And if Odin reflash won't fix it. Get pit file and flash it with it.

First thing to try would be flashing stock firmware with Odin.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/rb8iduv2o9i1ece/G920TUVS3DOJC_G920TTMB3DOJC_TMB.zip?dl=0
I recommend Odin 3.10.6

Sounds like DRK may be damaged.
Take the stock OKC firmware and open the archive with 7-zip or winrar and extract the system.img and boot.img.
Download and unzip this:
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
Flash the system.tar.md5 with Odin as AP then flash the boot.tar.md5 as AP.

thank you gonna have to try tomorrow due to bad USB cables, will let you know thank you so much for your help
If all else fails, just boot your phone into download phone and install Samsung Kies and restore it using that.
You will need the model & serial number of your phone. It will restore the latest stock firmware on your phone for you..

You cant, I suggest using a friend or family member's serial number that has the same model phone.. the serial number is a way of identifying the correct carrier specific rom.

Any senior member or someone please help me ...
If you connect to pc how will it be?try charge it first.then connect to pc.if detect, flash stock rom.if cant,try find spare battery just in case.
FOne is not showing any charge sign or anything... just QD LOADER 9008 in Device Manager
Do you see charging light when you plug in the charger?
As long as the phone receiving power you can fix it.

Try connect to kies.does it detect or not? if you able to flash. try flash it to 5.0.1
What was the battery level (approx.)when the phone died?
You might want to try cleaning the battery and internal phone contacts with some Isopropyl Alcohol and a Qtip.
See if that helps.

No Sir still no solution of this problem
I helped a good man, he sent an image of the device. I recorded this image of the sdcard and the device will start with "Download" mode. Next, it is necessary to firmware flashing.
915F - sorry - region "SER". But the main thing - is to run the device, further will flashing firmware what you need.
Site do not give insert a link to a file. Write me in the mail - "[email protected]" I'll send a link to file/
Write the file need with program "win32 disk imager". If this method does not help is probably a problem with the hardware.
Good luck.
As per the screen shot posted it seems your pc picked up the correct driver. Now all you need to install is Odin. Then go to samobile.com and search your phone under Firmware. Make sure you got the exact model (pull out the battery and look for exact model #). Once downloaded go to Odin and check AP and select the file you downloaded. Then put your phone on Download Mode by pressing Vol Up + PWR at same time. Follow the instructions on your phone screen.
Once you connect your phone to pc it will show up as Port 3 or 4 or wherever the driver is connected to.
** As long as on Odin your phone gets picked up you will be able to push the firmware. Once you can do that you pretty much fixed it. If it's wtong fw then you will get a notice right away, if it's correct then you see the progress bar changing.
BL is corrupted, need to repair it,
Since this is a Qualcomm based device, you can flash only BL files to an SD Card then boot your device from that card until you get into Download mode,
then reflash the device with Odin,
Follow this guide:
1. Download debrick (BL) file from HERE,
2. Download Win32DiskImager from HERE,
3. Get an 32GB SD Card and connect it to PC,
4. Setup Win32 and Run it then do as the following picture,
5. Just let it finish, Then disconnect the SD Card,
6. Make sure the device's battery is well charged,
7. Put the SD Card into the phone,
8. Now you need to boot device into Download mode either by using USB JIG or by holding (Vol-, Home and Power),
9. Once device boot into Download, Pull out the SD,
10. Now just flash the phone with Latest FW (either Factory or One-Package will do the job),
11. There is no 11, we're done ..
##NOTE: Solution is TESTED and it works.
@mirosaw2 Will this also work with the SM-N915FY? Will this keep my data (contacts, SMS, photos etc) on the internal storage? I have my SM-N915FY in a state where it wouldn't recognize any commands, but it makes a connect / disconnect sound on my Windows computer when I just connect it via USB...
My original question is here.... https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-edge/help/note-edge-sm-n915fy-bricked-dreadful-t3754559
Edit: I just tried it and it worked!!! Thank you very much, now I'm able to restore my data and then I'll try to make the error gone with this tutorial: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66879466&postcount=10

Samsung Galaxy S8+ Hard Bricked. Only Upload Mode!! How to Enter Download Mode???

Ok so I went to flash twrp recovery onto my phone and something went wrong while using oden... My usb debugging is turned on and OEM Unlocked. Now my phone screen stays completely black. Its caught in a bootloop and No buttons work to bring it back into download mode, Only Upload mode works.. But Odin will not flash anything to my phone in Upload mode. It changes my samsung usb drivers to msm upload or modem drivers. I have been at this for weeks trying to get my s8+ to attach to my computer again using ADB, ODIN, SD CARD, AND EVEN THAT JIG Thing to force it into download mode but TO NO AVAIL.. I Have to some how get back into download mode but no button combinations will work.. It seems to bootloop on me before it reaches those commands. The bootloader is obviously gone to a certain degree since upload mode still works.. Is there any way to use Odin in upload mode? Or is there any other way I can reflash stock rom to fix this issue? I have no recovery, no safe mode, no download mode?? My phone is basically a paper weight right now.. When I know All my stuff is still on there. This S8+ Phone has put up a good fight with me on my pc But Im not one to loose. I love a good challange.. Any suggestions. I thought ADB Was my best bet but with no connect I cant do any thing. I cant' get Adb to find my device. Oh even tryed older versions of odin with low level quallcom drivers and that didn't work either. Odin will read a com port to my device but i'm in the wrong mode (Upload Mode) and Odin cant establish a connection. When in Upload Mode its the hellish one as xda deveopers have said before..
S8+ phone is Model Number SM-G950U
Witch I believe has now been upgraded to SM-G955U OR F.. But I have the original stock rom still for SM-G950U if only I can get into some kind of Download Mode.
Ive even sat watching odin as I push every single button combination watching the ports appear and dissapear as it reboots trying to find some kind of way to download to the phone... But no luck..

You have a 950 u locked bootloader. First mistake trying to flash twrp. Only option you have is finding the revision bootloader you where on edl files and pinout to 9008 edl mode. There as of last known no fix other than for upload mode only.
Thank You

Mate there are 7 different revisions of the 950 u bootloader. Across all the software updates. No offense intended. But if you can't even give this little bit of info I can assure you. Your not gonna be able to dissemble this device. Ground out the test points to enter edl. And flash needed repair files. Which is very tedious. If there is any issues. I would mark this device as lost and get another. I dont feel that you have the necessary skills needed to complete this process...
