Galaxy s6 - can't re-install stock firmware - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed a custom ROM on my s6 but its not doing the trick. I'm a bit of an amateur at rooting androids, accidentally deleted the stock ROM and didn't make a backup. The problem now is that it doesn't matter what stock firmware I use it doesn't work. Tried using Odin and flashing through twrp but it never works.
I have Samsung s6 sm-g920l neither 5.0 or 5.1 stock firmwares work
, settings now says I've got sm-g925k but that stock firmware doesn't work either. Even tried changing it back to g920l in build.prop, but still nothing.
Just want a proper Samsung phone again. Any help?

Bricked?? Stuck at samsung logo screen for 1 sec then reboots.

Okay, So the title pretty much says it all. I am stuck at the Samsung boot logo (not bootanimation) and it only shows for about 1 second then reboots and continues.
This started after I tried to flash a rom and it messed up and I tried to flash via odin. I was on MJ9 and and got a bootloop so I did the odin thing. I've used odin before but it is not working well for me now.
I am able to boot into download mode but TWRP no longer works. I was able to flash via odin and it says success but the phone does not reboot like it should.
I have purchased a galaxy nexus on the cheap to hold me over until the nexus 6 is out but if I can fix my note, I would like to.
I know there were other threads about this same issue but it seems that they are all on a different version of the note, or on a s3 or something. Not to mention, I don't see anything that I could try without asking for some help on here. Can someone maybe point me in the direction of the factory firmware (preferably a rootable or already rooted version) that I can flash that will play well with my note.
Thanks guys!!!

Before you tried to flash a custom ROM and things went wonky...were you on Verizon's factory stock 4.3 MJ9 firmware, or on Beanstown106’s modified 4.3 MJ9 with TWRP installed?
Does the phone still boot into stock recovery? If so, you may be able to fix the phone by doing a factory reset.

If you were on Verizon's factory stock 4.3 MJ9, then you won't be able to Odin flash back to 4.1.2 or any earlier Android version because the bootloader has been locked down tight on 4.3 (and 4.4.2) with no current do it yourself method to unlock for those newer versions. You would want to restore the phone back to factory stock 4.3 though, if that's what version you were on before your phone got messed up. You can root the phone on 4.3 with saferoot, then use safestrap recovery to flash some custom Touchwiz ROM's.
If you were on the 4.1.2 based bootloader, (but running Beanstown106’s MJ9 firmware and TWRP), then you would want to restore your phone back to factory stock 4.1.2 and then root and unlock the bootloader again with CASUAL. This would give you the most flexibility with flashing custom kernels, ROM's, etc...
Check out Section 1b in Droidstyle's restore guide at this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34891181. The guide has download links for the files you'll need to restore the phone back to the correct build version.

Galaxy S3 I9300 Rooted RevolutionaryROM- How Do I revert Back To Stock Firmware?

HELP ME
Hi! I own a Galaxy S3 I9300 1GB RAM, 64GB which I've rooted, changed its ODIN and installed this ROM and now I'm very sorry I've done that. I ask you to help me, telling how can I install back the stock ROM, which is this one.
I'm not experienced in stuff like this at all; when I first changed it to 4.3.0 from 4.1.2, I've installed another recovery mode (like Safe Mode in Windows) called TeamWinRecovery, from where I installed afterwards the 4.3.0 ROM; now, to install that 4.1.2 again I have to change it back to the stock 'Safe Mode', and this is where I'm stuck. I followed all the steps to install the ODIN shown here but it doesn't work. PLEASE HELP ME!
Here are the steps that i followed
1.Download the stock rom(sammmobile)
2.Flash it via ODIN and you are done,but there's a counter which will indicate if you ever flashed a custom rom,i never tried to clear it as i was not worried about it
For removing the counter if necessary, you could use Chainfire's TriangleAway.
You can find the firmware you need at SamMobile, as already mentioned. Just click the link and select the language your region.
Then get Odin and flash the firmware.

Samsung galaxy A3(2016) bootloop

Hello, I have Samsung galaxy a3(2016) phone.
I've update it via settings->update firmware from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 I've rooted it with Odin and everything worked fine but I've accidentally uninstalled Google play services. Afterwards using Odin3.12.3 I've flashed official 5.1.1 firmware. Although Odin said "PASSED" my phone is stuck in bootloop. I've tried again flashing with Odin 3.10.7 but result was the same. I've tried again with both Odins with "Phone bootloader update" but it's all the same.
I've flashed 6.0.1 version again but I'd really like 5.1.1 version if it's possible.
Thank you for your time and answers.

Stuck on galaxy s6 logo

Hey guys! I used to have a custom rom, but ever since an update my phone got slow. So I tried different roms, but all of them are having issues with video playback. I downloaded the stock rom from sammobile.com, and flashed it using odin. I got an error with the file sboot.img so I deleted that (people advised me it, so I gave it a try). Now I have got another issue: It's stuck at the samsung galaxy s6 sm-g920f powered by android logo. Also can't boot into recovery, any help??
Finally fixed this!!! I downloaded a newer version and that worked
