Soft Bricked Samsung Galaxy S6 - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
Im new to the whole rooting and unrooting thing. About 2 weeks ago i successfully rooted my Samsung Galaxy S6. Yesterday afternoon I rebooted my phone after "unrooting" it with SuperSU. After the reboot it got stuck in a boot loop and I dont know what to do. I tried to reflash a stock firmware with Odin but everytime it fails. I tried to hard reset the phone using TWRP recovery and no go. Here is some info:
Phone: SM-G920F
Has TWRP recovery.
On odin screen (phone) it says this after the Odin flash fails.
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G920F
CURRENT BINARY: CUSTOM
CURRENT STATUS: CUSTOM
REACTIVATION LOCK: OFF
SECURE DOWNLOAD : ENABLED
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0x0500)
AP SWREV: B:5 K:2 S:2
SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 5, BINARY: 1
If you need any additional information just tell me and I'll provide it. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Steven

Help! I've tried almost eveything

so i was trying to go back to andriod from cyanogenmod and i accidently turned the device off while in download mode. now i am on the "firmware upgrade encountered an issure. please select recovery in Kies & try again."
upper left corner reads the following
ODIN MODE

Do you have a recovery like CWM Recovery installed ?
Try flashing cyanogen mod again and then use odin to go back to stock rom.

Help Galaxy S5 SM-900F Custom Rom stuck Download Mode

Hi there guys,
I recently bought an Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-900F that came already rooted with Cyanogen CM12.1 (cm-12.1-20150806-NIGHTLY-klte), using CWM Recovery Philz_touch.
When i was trying to make the updates through OTA, i was never able to update the firmware it was always displaying the old one on the informations of the phone. So i updated the firmware throught CWM Recovery Philz Touch manually, everything was ok, after that i thought to change the Recovery method to the TWRP latest version, it seemed ok that i suceeded.
However when i try to enter recovery mode i can't i'm always stuck with the ODIN mode saying Custom Rom and Knox 0x1 and does not let me to enter into recovery staying always in "Download Mode" .

Help: Tab S3 is in FAP Lock Mode

Hi,
I can't use my tablet anymore tried Odin to re-install the origin firmware "SM-T825Y_1_20180122165040_zf84f94qoe_fac.zip" (new android 8 stock ROM) but it fails, Odin shows the transfer has PASSED but I still get this message in the screen:-
"Security Error: This device has been flashed with unathorised software & is locked.
Call your mobile operator for additional support. "
I wasn't planning flashing a custom ROM the only thing I did is put OEM Lock on, not sure why I did that.
When I put in Download Mode it shows this in the screen:-
ODIN MODE [High Speed]
PRODUCT NAME: SM-T825Y
CURRENT BINARY: CUSTOM
SYSTEM STATUS: CUSTOM
FAP LOCK: ON
OEM LOCK: ON
DID: 03EA1E00AE16

1. It's FRP not FAP ya perv.
2. Reflash firmware with odin, do not go into download mode afterwards before 3.
3. The rest watch this video carefully, and next time you want to leave your device stock, leave it stock, if you want to install a custom rom or twrp, do not have auto reboot ticked.
4. here is link ---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0T-CR-KpfM
I did reflash with odin but I still get this message "Security Error: This device has been flashed with unathorised software & is locked.
Call your mobile operator for additional support. " There is another small message on top , "Custom binary blocked by FRP. (boot.img)"
Odin tells me its PASSED but the Tablet still says its locked FRP and OEM locked .
In download mode I am getting same info.
I just went to the Samsung Shop and they fixed it for free, they said they just put a new firmware not sure how they did it but I tried it myself with latest firmware but I couldn't get rid of the lock, I am missing something? like software? or just not enough info about about getting rid of locks?
I had the same issue after i installed a Xposed module. Had to reflash Pie Bootloader and Rom via odin. Now it boots, but i can't flash twrp anymore... It always fails.
