good afternoon forum friends, recently I have had a big problem with a samsung on5 sm-g550T from Tmobile which will install the twrp, then proceeded to root to install the foldermount app and pass data from the games to the sd, the problem is that after the root and install the app the phone suffered a softbrick since it did not go beyond the t-mobile logo, I made a noob error and from the TWRP I made a total full wipe , after that the phone when it came to the samsung logo remained the black screen.
I have tried to solve flashing the following firmwares with odin 3.11. - 3.11.1 and 3.12

https://mega.nz/#!6pIVWKqb!AwIAAAQhFwGEcbVSx6FShLuaoCWB9JMTWCVqWSaak0U
but all give me error at the moment of starting the process of flashing the odin mark fail, I leave captures of the error and the exact model of the team, also try flashing only the recovery first extracting the same from the Md5 with the 7zip but now the phone every time I turn it on, it sends me an error in red letters that you can also see in the capture. The truth is that I am getting desperate and I run out of ideas if someone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Hello everyone, and thanks for taking the time to attempt to help me.
Earlier today, my T-Mobile Galaxy S5 updated to 5.1.1. I searched google and came across a few links on how to root my phone (G900T) - The one I ended up using was CF-AutoRoot
I used Odin 3.07, used the tar5 file from that site above where I downloaded the root, and attempted to root the phone. Odin says everything worked as planned ''passed'' was displayed with 0 fails. I waited about 20 minutes, but my phone never rebooted, it was stuck in a boot logo loop ' 'Samsung Galaxy S5 powered by Android'' or ''T-Mobile'' was displayed.
I tried going into recovery and reseting all data / factory wipe but that didn't help, and made it even worse. Now my phone says this when I try to turn it on: ''Firmware upgrade encountered an issue, Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again''
How do I go about getting back to stock firmware , that is rootable, so I can then proceed to install CyanogenMod?
EDIT: I used Kies and was able to get back to stock firmware and the phone turns on.
Can anyone recommend a reliable root for the G900T S5?

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
It's good to hear that you managed to revive your phone. Many of us find it convenient to install a custom recovery such as TWRP which makes backing up and restoring, switching ROMs, and many such activities much easier. XDA happens to have an active and friendly area dedicated to the Samsung Galaxy S5, and specifically to the T-Mobile version at http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5. I suggest you search that area or simply post your question in the Q&A forum there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/help where our experts will be most likely to be able to guide you.
Hi XDA,
I really need help. Today I tried to root my new S6 (SM-G920W8, Rogers as provider) using a video (which I apparently can't link, but is titled "How to Root the Galaxy S6 (Safe & NO Loss of Data)" by C4Etech), which ironically turned out to be not that safe. I followed the instructions precisely, but despite seeing a 'PASS!', it got stuck in a bootloop. Thankfully, I can still access TWRP recovery mode, as well as the blue download mode.
I have the latest version of TWRP (2.8.7.1) loaded on my phone, but when trying to restore it I stupidly deleted the OS. Now, this would be fine, as I should be able to flash the stock 5.0.2 ROM, right? Wrong.
I am using Odin 3.0.4 as well as also trying 3.10.7, but when trying to load the ROM via AP method, I get "Write NAND start", followed by "FAIL!" I also once tried checking off the Re-Partition box, which then left me with "the specified file could not be read".
Digging around on the forums, I wasn't sure if perhaps it was because I was trying to install 5.0.2 onto a 5.1.1 device, but I couldn't find a 5.1.1 version of a Rogers SM-G920W8 stock firmware. School is tomorrow and I definitely can't let my parents find out that I messed up my phone – please XDAdevs, I'm begging you – help a newbie flasher out!
Have you formatted all partitions using TWRP?
I'd suggest format Data, System and Cache and try Odin again.
If it still fails then use a different USB port, a different cable or even a different computer.

No luck with switching cables or ports, gonna try a different computer but not sure it'll work. Still getting the NAND write error. Being a newbie to this, what things can cause a "NAND write start fail" error?
EDIT: it appears my reactivation lock is off. As my phone has no OS and is stuck in infinite boot loop, I can't register a Samsung count to disable it. Any advice?
Just tried on another computer. Was able to flash a version of Chainfire Autoroot with no NAND issue, but the issue persists for the stock S6 ROM.
Advice would be much appreciated.
Do you see black box with red writing saying "software rev check failed"?

No; I've never seen this message. However, when I try to boot normally on the S6 logo screen I get a red "Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing".
...Unfortunately, I have no idea what this entails.
SOLVED!
To anyone reading this who screwed up their Samsung device, use Kies 3 and try to upgrade firmware with your phone plugged in in download mode.
What this does is simply reinstall the native OS, using Samsung's own tool. No NAND errors, no need for Odin! Everything is vanilla and fixed. Thanks for your helps!
i see that box whit that mesagge , have any sugestion???? say software rev check fail

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

Here are official firmwares for your device. Boot your device into download mode and connect your phone, it should show up in Odin, then select the file you downloaded from sammobile and flash it from there. If you get any errors, please post the log here and I'll take a look at it.
Hello there, I am already more than 3 days trying to download stock firmware for my phone, every day another problem, on the beginning it was always fail while trying with Odin, then I was try another firmware it was downloaded but stucked on update 32%.i understand it can be wrong firmware, I tried other methods, I was add pit for Samsung galaxy s6 edge G925F. Downloaded but didn't help, I tried another firmware for other region it was downloaded, even no fail, but stucked on erasing. I tried recovery mode (volume up-home-power) cant access it. Today I try again, all the time stuck on Initialization.
Note I tried different Odin version.
USB on laptop there's two, 2.0 and 3.0(blue)
The time it was succeed without fail it was on the black USB 2.0
So now even completely can't start to download firmware.
Also I was try to download Twrp after it was nearly succeeded and stucked on erasing, hoping that I can access recovery mode to wipe everything, but Twrp stucked on logo.
After all that I can't do nothing.
I still can access downloading mode and phone stuck on logo if I put it on the charge.
I hope I was give right and enough informations to help me solve the issue.
I appreciate any help

You should identify the exact device model.
Then check to download the stock Samsung firmware for this model.
