I accidently deleted my OS with TWRP because my phone was bricked - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

So, i tried to flash a supersu on my phone with twrp, then my phone got bricked (it was stuck on the samsung boot logo). And then i took my SD Card out and saw that all my images was on that. So i thought i could just wipe my device. I went to the twrp, and selected wipe, went to advanced and selected everything. And i had no idea "Internal Storage" was my OS. I dont have any backups sadly. But i have TWRP and my sd card. The only problem is that ive tried to install samsung galaxy s7 stock firmware, but twrp says they are all corrupt. Where to i get a stock firmware that is not corrupt?

You don't use TWRP for stock firmware you use it for custom ROMs
ODIN 3.12.3 or newer is for stock firmware
Really should have done a lot more learning and reading before playing around

Samsung S6 stuck in boot loop

Hello,
I am new to rooting so I hope what i say makes sense.
I recently rooted my Samsung galaxy s6 G920IDVU3EPC6 yesterday. After seeing a update notification pop up it took me to twrp where I tried everything to get out of it, install the .zip thing. reboot. Nothing would get me out of the twrp menu. stupidly, I did an advanced wipe and it appears I got rid of all the system files or something like that.
Now the only thing I can do is enter the blue download menu or get stuck on the boot logo screen forever. I have made backups of my files on my PC. How do I get my phone back? please help me!
Hi,
Samsung OTAs (Over The Air) updates won't work on a rooted device. It has rebooted into TWRP, because normally it reboots into it's original Samsung recovery and installs the update. But because TWRP replaces the Samsung recovery, it doesn't work.
And if you have wiped the System partition, you no longer have anything installed. No Android, nothing.
The easiest thing to do would be to flash the original firmware for your device. Then you can do the update, then root your device.
A good habit to get into when you have TWRP installed is to do regular TWRP full backups. That way, if anything happens (like wiping your device), you can just restore that backup from TWRP, and the phone will be exactly as it was, with all partitions intact

I can't flash the original ROM. When I try to flash it on odin it never gets past setup connection or NAND write start. I tried different versions and cable and port and it doesnt work. PLEASE HELP
I can enter the TWRP menu but whenever I do something it says no OS installed.

P5100 shows TWRP logo and resets

I just flashed many different versions of TWRP downloaded from their site(I got only the ones compatible with my P5100). After successfully flashing them all through Odin, I can't boot into recovery. The TWRP logo screen is shown and after 2 seconds the device reboots. I followed many guides, and they were all similar in this particular process. Am I missing something, or could there be anything wrong with my unit?

did you also installed a rom??
No. I'm running the stock rom, no root. I just wanted to get the twrp installed because I need to copy my personal files to an sd card. My stock rom is rebooting itself after completing the normal system startup. I can barely open any app. So I need to backup my files and do a factory reset. Any ideas? Thanks!
I think you need to get rid of TWRP and root the stock ROM, then flash TWRP using an app running on your tablet. Do not use a PC to flash the recovery. Also, if you are installing a zip, you must do it on the device, not through your PC.

That doesn't make sense. Odin exists for the exact purpose of flashing through a PC, in case your recovery or anything gets damaged.

Stuck on TWRP after flashing it from ODIN

Hello guys. I recently flashed TWRP on my s6 using Odin. The first time I did it, it said that I successfully flashed it but I had autoreboot ticked, so I tried to check if my recovery has changed but it was still the stock recovery. So I tried to flash it again now without the autoreboot. It got stuck to the downloading screen even though odin has already finished. So I tried to force shutdown the phone. I tried to go to the recovery again and it was successfully flashed. I installed a new Custom rom and the Gapps (made sure I wipe everything before flashing), cleared the cached and tried to reboot. But to my surprise it was stuck to the TWRP. When I try to boot to system it's just stuck on the Galaxy s6 powered by android.
I'm sure I had the right trwp file and such but I might have made a mistake somewhere. I don't really know. Help guys?
My phone is the Canadian version G920W8
what ROM are you trying to install?
did check if your device is supported before flashing?

Deleted my phones OS, could use some help.

Yeah I messed up, bad. So I'll give as much info as I can. First off I am incredibly newbie at all this. I have a samsung galaxy j7 sm-j700p (j7ltespr) through virgin mobile. I originally had my phone rooted with the most recent version of magisk, and twrp. I attempted flashing smalipatcher and got stuck in a bootloop. I first tried recovering my backup, but was still stuck in a bootloop. My dumbass then went into twrp and did an advanced wipe ticking all boxes, thinking this would fix my issue. Whole OS gone. So I tried using Odin to flash stock firmware and everyone I tried failed. After that I tried flashing lineage but got a kernel is not seandroid enforcing error or something like that. So I'm lost at this point, I've been up and down the web, these forums, anywhere i could find, And everything I tried has failed. Can anyone possibly help me out, or point me in the right direction?
Do you still have accesss to twrp? If yes, wipe internal storage and system, dont wipe RECOVERY, that is twrp, then flash a custom rom, later if you want, you can install a official rom with odin
Edit: system means OS,sorry.

GT-N8013 stuck in reboot loop

Here's where I'm at...
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 shows for a few seconds, and then the tablet reboots itself. This will go on for infinity if I don't stop it.
I can access the download mode. So, I tried installing some custom roms, and the stock roms. I've tried on Odin 3.09 and the latest one (3.14?). Even though Odin always reports success, the evidence is to the contrary. No effect.
I tried flashing the latest TWRP. Even though Odin says success...no success.
I tried putting TWRP on an sd card, booting to TWRP, and upgrading from there. Even though TWRP says success...no success.
So, not only can I get no headway in fighting my problem, I can't even get an error message. Everything I try says it's successful, but I'm still stuck in the reboot loop as if I hadn't done anything.
I'd appreciate any and all suggestions.
Hi,
at first, I would recommend Odin 3.10, because newer version's aren't all compatible.

So you can boot into TWRP? Which version do you have installed?
Is it even possible to change the TWRP version through a direct TWRP flash?

I always understood it was, by flashing the *.img file. But, admittedly, it's been a couple of years since this last came up for me, so I may be remembering it wrong.
I have version TWRP 3.0.2.0

Ok,
then download my latest TWRP (n8010, img) for your device and copy it on your internal storage.
