Hello,
I'm creating a new trend because I did try everything what I could find on forums to fix this issue.
I have a problem with Samsung galaxy s7 (SM - G930F) it got stuck on Samsung logo and when I connect it to PC in download mode using USB there is no sign. PC doesn't show anything, I tried all ports and many different cables.
What did I try is:
1) Volume UP+Home Then Power button - Nothing happens. Can't access to the menu for hard reset.
2) Safe mode - Power bottom when it turns on immediately hold power down - Nothing happens, can't run in safe mode.
3) Volume down+Home+Power -
WORKS - Download mode opened, Now the problem is I can't flash a firmware with ODIN3 coz basically PC not recognizing USB.
4) Yes I did download Samsung USB drivers and installed them.
5) I checked on Device Manager there is no sign of samsung USB or anything..
6) I also tried SmartSwitch - Nothing, it asks me to connect to device.
Basically the only things work are download mode and force restart - Volume Down+Power bottom.
The other thing when I charge the phone it shows empty battery logo, no green or red light, percentage or anything.
Any ideas guys? I'm losing a hope with this phone.
If it refuses to charge and the PC won't detect it, it's either an issue with the main board itself or the daughter board that houses the microUSB port.
The latter shouldn't be too difficult to replace.

But how can it explained that I'm available to access to download mode by pressing volume down+home+power buttons but not available get into hard reset mode menu? I done reseach about hard reset mode and I read that the phone should be over 50% charged to make factory reset. I'm guessing that the phone is charging but not properly charging so I'm only allowed to access into download mode. Because if the phone wasn't charging at all it would be dead. Is this possible theory?

There could be an issue with the recovery partition causing it to not boot into the stock recovery menu for you to do a hard reset.
Normally in circumstances like this, I'd suggest a clean flash of the latest stock firmware, but seeing as though the PC doesn't detect the phone, that won't be possible.

i am not sure for my answer but are you using the correct firmware version for your device?
maybe it is a carrier or region thing
also check what odin version you are using

Hello, if the phone is reporting G930V in recovery mode then the phone is truly a G930V and that's the firmware you need to flash. It has to be the latest version and for your region.
So a G930V is a Verizon branded device, in your case it's been modified to accept G930F firmware which is always going to be a problem if you attempt to modify the device after that.
Get the latest G930V firmware and flash it with Odin 3.13 not 3.14. Once your phone is up and running you can decide what to do from there, a G930V will only work in the USA.

That is your problem.
You are trying to flash an older firmware than what is already on the device.
You need to flash G930V with bootloader 10 or higher.

I rooted my S7 and it deactivated my cellphone service. I searched the internet for solution and there were absolutely none. I decided to flash it back to the stock firmware. Odin didn't work and I accidentally unplugged the phone and now it won't boot up. I can put it in download mode but it's not being detected by ADB. My computer does detect as a Samsung Device though.

I also have the same problem, and I tried the smart switch method, however when entering my serial number I was told I had the wrong serial number. I double checked multiple times and I always input it correctly.
I dont have any idea for this when mine is soft bricked il always do this!!! Are you sure you enter the exact sn number mine sn number its on sticker on the box!!!
You can try stock firmware on updato
are you using a Windows computer?

The issue was that the stock firmware I was trying to flash to was out of date. I used the up to date firmware and my phone is now fine. I was freaked out for at least 2 days about my phone thought, I'm never trying to root it again.

That's what i said when i hard bricked my first phone , i will never even root my phone again!
And what did i do one week after i bought new device? I flashed ROM, don't be worried, bricking will always happen, it is the part of whole experience :angel: :laugh:
So I went to root the phone and I did so with CF Auto Root. I went into Super Su and decided it was not what I was looking for. I was hoping for more of a GUI TWRP system and decided to unroot and factory restore the phone. I'm stressed to the point where i have no memory of how the phone got screwed up at this point. Here is what I do know.
When I power the device on normally it is frozen at the Samsung Galaxy S6 boot page and at the top it says KERNEL REV CHECK FAIL DEVICE 3 BINARY 2. Is this because I have the wrong firmware on the device? Is there any way I can get the bootloader, the firmware and everything else and just restore everything at once? Samsung Smart Switch fails to recover the device and I would absolutely love to do an emergency recovery, but it keeps asking for a code from a previous computer and I have no idea what it's talking about.
Any help would be appreciated.

Try with another usb cable, another usb port or another PC.
I bought an official samsung charger and fixed it. I think the old charger was disconnecting during the smart switch initialization process.
Any way to fix knox?
So... I screwed up badly. I'm a noob and I was trying to get root access on my S7. I first followed this guide on the xda forums to step 15. While following this I had issues writing \data for the backup so I changed the partition from EXT2 to EXT3 fixing the issue. Then I was advised by someone that I shouldn't be following such an outdated guide and he sent me this one. But instead of going through the whole thing I only went from the part where I install the newest TWRP and everything worked. After a reboot on the the phone I booted into android and it was like after a factory reset with everything fine. I set some stuff on the phone up but didn't enable OEM unlock. Then the phone couldn't boot android with the FRP error. So I tried installing the stock firmware from here and that kept failing. Now whe I try to boot regularly instead of the samsung bootscreen with the FRP Lock error I get a light blue screen telling me to use the smart switch but ss didn't help me (it recognizes the phone and that something is wrong but the integrate fix option doesn't recognize the phone).
In odin I get this error when trying to flash the stock rom I linked to (Odin v 3.13) :

I can get my phone to currently only boot into the download mode and the broken boot mode where it tells me to use smart switch
If anyone has any idea on what I could do to to somehow restore the phone or to get it to a semi functioning state I'd be very grateful.
I'm currently downloading a stock rom from another website: https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s7/firmware/SM-G930F/AUT/#SM-G930F 2020-03-26 edition and will try it out once it's downloaded.
[EDIT] No luck with the different ROM, still the exact same issue.
Snapdragon or exynos?
SM-G930F=exynos more roms etc.
eg. Galaxy S7 G930U is = snapdragon USA version
mb. u try flash exynos rom having snap device?

nope, I have an exynos chip in my phone, but thanks for the suggestion
My phone; Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F) Exynos.
Stupidly tried to revert phone back to stock without doing enough research first! now phone seems to be bricked!. could have hard bricked it this time!!.
I started by first uninstalling root then thought it might be a good idea to use smart switch for first time to sort software out. really BAD IDEA now phone bricked. first time using smart switch
Now when I start phone all i get is,
( An error aoccured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the smart switch PC software)
but when i try and that all I get is " This function does not support your device" I wish trhey said that when I open the bloody software but it let me start !!!! now I can't get phone back.
I can get another screen which is ( Warning A custome OS can cause critical problems blar blar blar Press volume up key to continue or down to restart) screen. I tried to download a stock rom and use Odin to install it at that screen but it fails every time it sees it in odin and after applying all the lines and starting it it fails after img installing. Not sure I have right stock rom.
Can any one please help I need a link to this phones original stock rom so I can return it to its old self so i can update the software and then perhaps root it to remove bloatware.
I had [ROM][G930F/FD][ALEXNDR] * U8EUE1 * DevBase v7.4 installed worked ok untill i noticed an issue with net. it had really bad network speeds on both wifi and phone network so needed to revert it.
can anyone please point me in right direction to stock rom and perhaps give a detailed way out of this mess!.
I want to install my original stock rom and update it then root that rom and debloat it.
any help here would be greatfully recieved.
thanks

Would really appreciate some help on how to proceed I.
Hi, I don't know if this solution can help you. But it can give you a clue.
I think there is an Odin problem with the .lz4 compression format. You should unzip the official firmware packages, unzip them with 7-zip and pass them to .tar
Here you can see how to do:
In principle it should work.
You already know that when you do this kind of thing you have a risk. But you can try.

I fully understand and know what you mean I know its a bit risky but no worries buddy and thank you for replying very much appreciated I will certainley give that a try good idea. I was on the verge on buying a new phone any way so no loss really but it was a good little phone and would love to use it for my grand child for kids youtube. been way behind upgrades for some time now and was kind of coerced by family to join the dark side! because there are some benifits android just can't match and I'm missing out on with my grandkids
I bit my lip and bought the fruit from Eve :/ I'm now a sinner and traitor lol being a windows man like for ever .
again many thanks for your help I will update this thread to let you know the outcome fingers crossed cheers buddy
