Galaxy S6 Edge SM-G925I Update Failed - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
Phone finds the update, downloads the 600+ mb then restarts for installation then the Update Failed thingy comes up. And after this, while searching for updates it says " You have the latest version". Went to recovery more, reset the phone, then the same thing happens.
Any suggestions?
Or do I just download the 5.1.1 firmware and flash it with Odin?
Any help would be appreciated!

Download the latest stock firmware, and flash it with Odin.

Thanks for the reply. I guess that's the only alternative before I root. But there's this message in recovery mode "dm-verity verification failed....Need to check DRK first"
No idea what this is, have googled and it is not related to the problems shown on the web. Phone is not rooted, still official firmware.
So, is it safe to flash the latest firmware through Odin or will it brick my phone?

Another obstacle. Odin or Win 10 doesn't recognize my phone in Download Mode. Have tried everything that I know of.....maybe it is win 10?

What isn't working? Did it flash successfully but not boot? Just do a factory reset. If it didn't flash completely, then you have to let us know what happened before it failed.

Ok, so typically when people say they flashed a rom, that means a custom version through a custom recovery. But you said earlier you tried to install through Odin. This is an important distinction. If you tried to flash a custom rom and it didn't work, then flashing the correct stock firmware through Odin will resolve. If you flashed through Odin and it gave you that warning, then you need to find the right one and re-try.

Yup what i tried to do is flash an arabic rom instead the Chinese stock one but if failed on the phone it said invalid at the end so if i flashed the Chinese stock one back from odin will it work or not
Yes, flashing the original firmware via Odin should get you working again.

will it work if i used samsung kies recovery
Possibly, but if the system had already been modified, I find Odin to be a more reliable fix.

S6 edge g925i stuck on boot

Have searched through the posts but could not find a solution.
Flashed 5.1.1 stock firmware via odin couple of times. Even changed Odin from version 3.10.6 to 3.10.7. Still stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge powered by android screen. Have tried the recovery mode reset and wipe cache but to no avail.
Flashing via Odin was successful, then it reboots and the blue screen comes on "Erasing....." I don't think the Erasing thing gets completed and it reboots to the boot screen and stays there.
At the moment downloading the 5.0.2 firmware. Any help would be appreciated.
Seems downgrading is not a possibility. Have flashed the 5.1.1 firmware. Still stuck at boot. The reboot after flashing shows the blue scree and a task bar slowly filling up, then the "Erasing..." part starts and reboots and stays at the Galaxy S6 edge screen. Seems the Reactivation is on, and there's a "dm-verity verification failed...." on the bottom of the recovery.
Could be a corrupted download. Try downloading the 5.1.1 firmware again.

on the same boat.
its just my 3 rd day got the phone.
let me know if you have any luck.
bought the phone this Wednesday from JB HIFI, Sydney, Australia, 64GB, on the first day i update the phone to the latest stock rom 5.1.1 which is LMY47X.G925IDVU2DOI2.
Firstly, i installed TWRP and rooted the s6 successfully using TWRP Recovery 2.8.7.1 and Root for G925F Android 5.1.1 (unofficial).
Then I was trying to install custom rom. but i format the data in TWRP without backup anything, like efs.
1.Flashed the stock rom (G925IDVU2DOI2_G925IXSA2DOI2_XSA.zip) from sammobile.com odin with no errors. (I downloaded twice from different sources)
after, reboot. it shows cant find /cache and /system.
It shows dm-verity verification failed.
and then shows the stock recovery mode
then i use odin and flashed the TWRP from the above post, and it shows internal storage 0MB.
Checked Samsung Galaxy S6/S6 Edge PAC Firmware/PIT File Collection
The pac and pit file is not released yet.
Adb & Fastboot not working, it cant detect the device.
Smart switch didnt work, shows unsupported device.
is it the partition messed up?

My phone says Custom binary blocked by FRP

Hi everyone, please help me with this problem. My phone is a J5 Sm J500m, with 6.0.1 andrioid and root with Odin and CF Autoroot.
The phone was working great (root and system all working smoothly) until I F***ed Up by deactivate in the menu de feature "OEM UNLOCK" and restarted the phone and i got a message saying "Custom binary blocked by FRP".
I have tried to re-root with odin and of course i cant do it beacause of the FRP block, my question is: how can i bypass this block because the system works well i just cant fix this issue.
Thanks to everyone

Go to SamMobile download the firmware for your device and flash it with Odin.
After that just check OEM unlocking and re root.

I would say you should boot into recovery and wipe cache, if it doesn't help make a full wipe.
It can sometimes take time till it boots....

HELP! Galaxy S6 Edge stuck trying to open Recovery Mode.

I tried to root my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, installed TWRP & tried to install SuperSU 2.79 and it got stuck on creating image, so I rebooted my phone and it didn't boot.
At this point i could only access TWRP and Donwload mode, I got worried and decided to flash stock recovery via ODIN but I think i forgot to uncheck auto-reboot box (Don't know if this step could cause the problem but I think they are related), and I know it's trying to open recovery mode because when I flash TWRP again, some red letters appear on the top-left corner of the screen, same as when I opened TWRP custom recovery, so at the moment I can only open Download mode.
The things I've tried:
ADB reboot recovery: It won't recognise the device anymore
Flash Stock Firmware/Recovery: After sboot.bin it fails (I have the Firmware for my specific model and region)
Also, I'm new to the forums stuff so forgive me if I do something wrong
I hope someone could help me,as I've searched all over the internet and found close to nothing about this thread

Flash stock firmware it will work.
The reason it fails at sboot.bin is because your flashing a firmware with an older bootloader than you currently have.
Flash a newer/newest firmware and it will work.

When I last checked my Android versión was 7.0 and I think that was the last update the galaxy s6 had, but if you can tell me where can I get a newer firmware that would be great, also thanks for the help you have given me until now.

Finding device info

Hi i was wondering if there is a way i would be able to find out information about my device such as the bootloader id so i can find the correct stock rom for my boot looped samsung s6 edge. Is there a way to view crash/bug reports i have sent to google play previously as they normally hold that type of info

Did you tried to wipe cache, dalvick on recovery mode?
And it should written at your phone package
S6 edge is G925
But have models
Like G925F or S(don't remember exactly, you should check it)

Do both

So yours is G925A
1-Did you flashed stock rom via Odin?(G925A)
2-Did it passed?
3-Did you use latest Odin?

No it's a G925F.
1.Yes i used odin to try and flash stock rom but it failed.
2. No
3. Yes i used the latest and a few other versions that people said worked best but had no luck with any 9f them
Can flashing your phone take up more storage on your device because i have tried around 3 different roms and know i didn't have much storage left so could this be why odin will no longer flash?
I'm just wondering if there is a way to find the phones baseband version so i can get the correct stock rom
