SM-G920P - Stuck on TWRP Screen!

[SOLVED]
So first of all, I apologise if another thread has been created. I have looked around and have seen nothing similar to my situation. I would greatly appreciate if anyone could help me out.
I rooted my SM-G920P device and trid to install the TWRP Recovery. I'm currently on 5.1.1.
It didn't work and I ended up with the start-up screen saying:
SAMSUNG GALAXY S6 Powered by Android.
At the top left it says: Recovery is not seandroid enforcing.
I have tried flashing twrp 2.8.7.1 with ODIN and I end up with the following screen.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The touch screen does not work so I am unable to swipe.
This is the issue I am having.
If I can get my phone back to normal functionality, I would really appreciate it.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi teekeiwong,
Press and hold "Volume Down" + "Home" + "Power" until phone reboots. When you see boot screen, release power key but keep holding volume down + home until you get to download mode. Release all and press volume up to agree to enter download mode.
Download this on your pc and open up Odin.
Connect your phone and add your downloaded file to the "AP/PDA" button in odin. Make sure ONLY F. Reset Time and Auto-Reboot are checked. If anything else is checked then uncheck it before starting.
Click start and wait for it to finish, might take a while for your phone to boot first time after flashing
AFTER you are back to stock, take a GOOD look over here and you might just get a working root & custom recovery
Hope this helps!

Thanks Renolz.
I've been searching forums all over the place. I'll give it a try when I have a bit more time on my hands.
Thanks again.

Also I have another queestion which I hope you will be able to help me with. On my phone when I go to Settings - About Phone, the model number is SM-G920F. However when I go into Download mode I see that the model number is SM-G920P.
What am I supposed to go with?
Also after flashing the Noble ROM to convert my S6 into an S6 Edge Plus, I lost the baseband. I no longer can gain any signal to make calls nor texts. Would you have any idea how to go about this?
Thanks again

Found my old tablet - TWRP??

Found my old tablet recently while moving and figured I'd charge it up and see what happens. Clearly the younger me had plans to do something with it, but now I am at a loss as to what to do? It boots on the ASUS screen, then restarts and boots into Team Win Recovery Project v2.5.0.0 - what do I do from here to get it to boot into android? Do I have to install android? If needed I can make pictures of the process and what the screen shows.
Thanks for any and all help!

Ok, 1st is the TF700t unlocked? It will say it's unlocked when you boot it up and then you need to know what bootloader version you're on. - NP

The top left corner on the black ASUS screen says Unlocked but that is it. How can I find out what bootloader version is running on the tablet?
Thanks!

You have to boot into the FastBoot screen, hold the volume button down and press the power button, hold the volume down button while it boots and you should see this screen.

My apologies for the delayed response, work got more hectic than usual
It appears to be version 1.00 e, is this a good thing?

It's the number after "US_epad-" looks like 10.6.1.14 let us know what the number reads - NP

It reads "US_epad-10.6.1.14.8-20130514" A03. Your eyes are better than mine, no clue how you read that from the picture.
Thanks again for helping!

I would update the bootloader to 10.6.1.14.10 - NP

On the verge of sounding dumb, how would I go about updating the bootloader version? I have never done any of this before.
Thanks again.

Check this thread out, it has links to the updated bootloader and newer TWRP, you can flash this off the microSD card using the existing TWRP. - NP

Bricked my wife's SM-P900? God help, please!

Hi,
A few days ago I tried to update my SM-P900 tablet after 3 or more years without updating. I tried to flash this ROM (https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...7-1-xsm-p900-unofficial-cyanogenmod-t3524788/), but it didn't boot. I flashed the recommended bootloader and recovery with Odin, but I'was not able to boot. Somehow, neither booted Lineage 13 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...t/rom-cyanogenmod-13-0-android-6-0-1-t3366834) nor Resurrection (https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...lopment/rom-resurrection-remix-5-8-2-t3563635). The only ROM I managed to get working is CM 12 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...t/rom-cyanogenmod-12-lollipop-5-0-1-t2971945/). I thought that the problem was the bootloader, and someone suggested that I flash a more recent (at least lollypop) bootloader. According to Phone INFO, my bootloader version was P900XXUANI1. I tried again and again to flash the BL_P900XXU0BPA1.tar.md5 file, but, despite Odin showing the PASS! message, Phone INFO kept showing the same bootloader version. After that someone recommended that I flash the most recent stock image, so that I get a recent bootloader, that is what I tried to do.
I downloaded the file Samsung_SM-P900_(P900XXS0BPL2_P900OXE0BOI1_Russia_v5.0.2)_by_ (FirmwareOS.com) from a sammobile kind of site. What I look for is that ...BPL2 version that seems to work for other people. But after flashing it, the tablet doesn't boot and I can't access download mode. The only thing that i get to boot is the stock recovery, but it doesn't have the flash img option nor the reboot in Download mode that TWRP had. The only options I got are "Update from external storage" and "Update from ADB". Either of them don't let me flash a full factory image nor, apparently, another bootloader or custom recovery. When I try to flash it I get "E: footer is wrong \n E: signature verification failed" and if I do it via ADB, the error shows right away after a 0% transfer.

EDIT: Other symptoms I found are:
- I can't manage to power off the tablet using just the buttons: it always reboots unless I select the Power off option in the recovery. Also if the tablet is connected by USB to the charger or the computer it always try to boot.
- When the tablet is connected via USB and I try to power it off, the tablet reboots and shows a battery symbol, but is gray and kinda strange.
I'm pretty desperate now. This is my wife's tablet and I tried to update it so that it was more secure. I'm screwed.
Any ideas? Is this fixable?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

Did you try to download the stock rom which consists of several parts with the samfirm software?
For that you have to check the binary box in SamFirm and to insert device type and region.
Flashing that might work better.

I forgot to update the thread. I managed to fixed the tablet. It turns out the tablet hadn't enought battery to enter download mode and I was messing up with the Vol Up and Vol Down buttons. Really embarrasing. Hahaha. After fully charging the device and pressing down the proper buttons, I managed to enter in Download mode and flash a new image.

Return OP6 to total factory settings remove TWRP many issues

I got a OP6 recently (used) and it came with TWRP installed, bootloader unlocked, and on Android 10. I'm currently running OOS 9.0.5 and I noticed app malfunctions such as freezing, crashing of apps, and the phone would take some time to turn on (after which apps would not be visible on home screen until I restarted the phone), and the phone freezes and becomes unresponsive for no reason.
I've tried factory resetting 5+ times, and attempted to follow the instructions to update the OOS https://www.xda-developers.com/android-10-rolls-out-again-oneplus-6-6t-oxygenos-10-0-1/ (downloaded full OTA) twice, factory resetting the phone after each failed attempt (my computer would say files couldn't copy, then I would find it in the internal storage and complete the system update through "local upgrade," but phone still did not update to OOS 10.
Another issue I've been experiencing is the LED menu won't work (selecting it in settings crashes settings and freezes the phone), but I see options for the OP6T on-screen fingerprint reader, so I'm wondering if somehow this phone was flashed with an OOS for the 6t at some point? I don't know enough about any of this to make assumptions though.
I just want to be able to use the phone properly and with an ability to change the LED notifications. How can I return the phone to what it was like fresh out of the box? I have no interest in any custom ROMs or any modifications, I just want versions of android and OOS that work properly and I will get updates for on the phone itself through OnePlus.

How did you for your Android down to 9.x if your phone came in Android 10?

That's incredibly strange because all the oxygen os firmwares up till 9.0.9 are Android 9, doesnt seem like you have an "official" firmware..
Lucky for you I've flashed tens of buggy roms, kernels and recoveries, and have bricked my oneplus 6 wayyyy too many times. Easiest way to restore to is download one of Mauronofrio's fastboot roms, extract the downloaded zip, boot your op6 to fastboot mode (you can hold volume down while booting your phone to go into recovery and boot fastboot from there if you want, that should be the simplest way, the other easy way is to enable developer options if it isnt enabled already, search settings for boot, then enable boot options, holding power will give you the option to boot into bootloader/fastboot directly now), then just run the flash-all.bat from the zip you extracted while your phone is connected to your pc. That's it, just wait and your firmware will be restored.

[SM-T825][Bootloop] boot looping after flashing official firmware

Hi all, hope ur doing well
I recently rooted my Tab S3 with the help of TWRP and Magisk
All was well and there were no mishaps or errors. One day I decided i did not want it to be rooted so i flashed the official firmware from the SamMobile website.
Ever since then it has been boot looping, even after multiple flash attempts with varying version of Odin and the official firmware
I will try give as much info on the steps i took in order to help you help me.... if that makes sense
1. I downloaded the firmware from SamMobile and downloaded Odin v1.13.1
2. I selected the BL, AP, CP and CSC files respectively for flashing
3. I flashed the firmware successfully
4. Auto-reboot continued
5. Rebooted into recovery
6. Android Logo appeared and text said "Installing Software Updates"
7. Text changed to "Erasing"
8. The tablet rebooted again showing this screen

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
9. After which the boot loop started (showing black screen and above image.... never showing SAMSUNG logo)
After some googling i found that this is sometimes an issue and a quick way to solve it is to boot into recovery and WIPE CACHE and WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET
I did this but with no success.
After booting into recovery mode i noticed some interesting text at the bottom of the screen
(Apologies for the poor quality)
Not sure why the dm-verity verification failed but it prevented me from trying other methods such as updating via SD card or ADB.
So I thought let me try installing TWRP again and see if i can do anything from there.
So i booted into download mode and flashed TWRP.... only for it to fail and display this message
"Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed"
Great. Just another quick google search and it suggests that the official firmware is to be flashed before continuing
so i did it ... again (steps 1-9)
and i am stuck where i started this quest, in a boot loop never getting passed the Galaxy Tab S3 screen
If you know what else i can try or what could be the issue, or even a mistake i made that i was unaware of ... please leave a comment
i appreciate any and all help
Thank you for ur time and sorry for the long post
Much love

I'm taking a long shot here, I don't have Odin in front of me but if I remember correctly, you must uncheck "auto reboot" in the options tab

hi @Raffles727
thanks for your advice, I have attempted it with "auto reboot" disabled
but as soon as I leave the download screen by holding the power + vol down + home buttons it repeats the same process from step 5-9 without any intervention from me
did I miss something or did I do it correctly?
