Help with a friends bricked phone. - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, first time posting on this forum so I'll keep it short.
Recently a friend of mine asked one of his other friend to root his Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge from T-mobile.
However his friend messed up and now the phone has been bricked. Whenever you plug in the power cord all it shows is an empty battery logo and kernel is not seandroid enforcing and below custom binary blocked by FRP Lock.
When attempting to enter recovery mode or download mode all it shows is the samsung logo and the errors as said above on the top left. I have never encountered anything like that when I rooted my old samsung s3.
So maybe you guys on the forum can give me some insight on what I should do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Check your CSC to match that one is on phone to bypass FRP lock... Download stock rom based your csc/pda from samfirmware.com . Flash with odin.

Hey Guys!!!
I have bricked my Samsung Galaxy ace plus (GT7500). I was flashing this custom Atomic ROM.
First I did it successfully. The interface came where it demanded for my google account then i put in the information of my google account. The screen went blank.
Then i restarted it.but it got stuck into samsung boot logo. I even can't go through my download mode or clockwordmod.
so, was not able to use ODIN.
First ODIN Failed in flashing my ROM. then i got pissed off and switched off my mobile.
After sometime when i tried to start it. it went dead. it is even not starting. It is not even getting charged.
I know it is now bricked. Please tell me how to unbrick it.

First of all wrong section.. there is another section for the Ace plus, but as you already have posted i shall tell u what to do.
Remove your phone's battery. After removing your battery hold the button combination for download mode and then put put your battery back into the phone this should make your phone boot in download mode. After it is in download mode, using Odin flash one of the stock firmwares into your phone.
Press thanks if I helped.

[Q] Phone stuck at boot screen, not rooted

My Galaxy S2 suddenlz got stuck on the boot screen that gives the name and model number and since then has been on the same screen. I have never rooted the phone so thats not the problem. I can however enter download mode so I was wondering if there was a way that i could maybe flash a rom onto it, I've never done this before and could not get it to work by following the tutorial on cyanogenwiki.
any help would be much appreciated to revive my gs2
Thread stickied near the top of Q&A showing you how to flash stock rom with Odin (get one for your country/carrier from Samfirmware).

[SOLVED] Bricked/Stuck after using ODIN Root?

Hi, all,
I used the ODIN Root for my T-Mobile Galaxy S6 Edge (model 925). I did everything, downloaded the proper zips and exe's and all, and began to root. Everything was going fine, my ODIN exe told me everything was fine, and my phone boots up...
...and stays stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge: Powered by Android" splash screen.
I CAN'T EVEN TURN IT OFF!
Any help would be greatly appreciated
HOW TO SOLVE:
Even though the phone is on, Volume Down + Home + Power will still boot into Download Mode. So do that.
Use the Samsung Galaxy S6 (NOT edge! Yes, the 920 file) zip instead of the Edge zip. And don't use the included .exe - use the official, latest ODIN EXE.
I have the same issue !
So i need to flash the 920's root file ? It won't really brick my phone ?? Or It will boot my phone ?
Thanks !

Even though the phone is on, Volume Down + Home + Power will still boot into Download Mode, do not release any button until you see the download mode.

Please help tmobile s6 edge soft brick
I initially used odin to flash OI1 update, after a rom I was using caused problems and I got bootloop. It changed bootloader value to b:3 and I'm unable to downgrade now so I used smart switch which didn't recognize device so used emergency recovery and still bootloop. I have factory reset and wipe cache multiple times along with adb side load and individual flashes of bootloader, modem, kernel, flashed custom kernel and twrp to access fix permissions and to mount partitions with advanced wipe etc and still wont boot past logo. Also during one fix attempt phone said can't mount system.. Idk I'm not understanding where the problem is .everything says successful but I'm still in bootloop. Please help. I've spent hours everyday for the past week searching & trying different things that seem might help so open to any suggestions.
Hello ,
if phone stuck on logo it means you played with EFS .
If phone Stuck on Logo After Flash Stock it Means Phone has Bad Root Key it know as DRK (DEV Root Key)
It Takes very long to find me perfect solution.
You will need to root phone. ( to turn on )
You will need an UART Interface and Uart Cable.
Than You need to Authenticate MSL
After that Write the Cert With DRK Data.
Now Phone is Good .
Flash with Stock Rom.
Enjoy Your Phone Working Fine.

Hi, can someone please elaborate on this?
I have the exact same issue with the T-Mobile Galaxy S6 Edge SM-G925T
I've tried flashing G920FXXU2BOFJ with Odin but it just fails
I also flashed G925TUVS3DOJC perfectly with Odin but it's still stuck at the GS6 Splash Screen
Samsung Smart Switch does not work.
Can someone please send me the exact link to the file they used to fix this. Thank you

[Q][Help] s6 Edge only boots into Odin

Hello xda!
I bought a broken s6 Edge of a co-worker. I thought i could fix it but its giving me a headache
The problem is that it only turns on when plugged into the computer, the screen than shows a emergency recovery option on Kies or swift switch (which requires a recovery code. And I nor my coworker have) the other thing I can do is boot into Odin.
Now my question is: Does anyone know a way to recover it without that code?
I tried installing a stock s6 edge OS on it using Odin but everytime I get a write error.
Please help!

You don't have the sn at the back of the phone?. No box?.
Sent from my SM-G925F
the best thing to do is get the repair firmware files from sam mobile, flash each file in the right loading area. i.e cp for cp, ap in ap. if you flash a full file (usually names HOME) it never repairs the phone fully

Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed

Hello everybody,
I own a Galaxy S9+ (SM-G965F) and out of nowhere, it no longer boots. It is stuck on a black screen with red writing on the top saying "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed."
I did not root my device or anything at all. I have looked online for help, and have tried reinstalling the latest stock firmware i found here in xda (G965FXXU2BRJ3 and G965FXXS2BRJ3) using Odin3 v 1.13.1, and still no luck.
I can only access download mode (odin mode). Can't enter recovery mode at all and it doesnt boot at all to show the Samsung s9 logo.
Any help will be appreciated as I need access to my phone asap as I am expecting to hear back from jobs I applied to. Thank you very much..
By the way; I am not a techsavvy person.
only official released binaries are allowed
im having the same issue with my galaxy s8. did you figure anything out?
