[HELP] S6 Edge SM-G925F unable to boot - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I have a G925F that doesn't charge, it opens only if i plug the cable, gets in recovery mode without me doing anything, and after a couple of seconds it freezes and reboots only to do that again.
The only thing I can do and stay on, is get it to download mode with home+power+vol-
So, i tried to flash the lastest firmware from sammobile with Odin (I ticked just AP and add the path for the firmware, nothing more), it succeeded but still doesn't boot up...
Can someone help me figure out what's going on with this phone?
Thanks in advance

Sometimes download mode can work even if the screen isn't turning on. You should follow the instructions for download mode and see if Odin recognizes your phone.
if see odin has recognized ur fone, flash it with the stock firmware using odin!
Thanks for the response but I tried several times but phone is not booting up in downloading mode.

Try this (it may or may not work)
Launch PC Odin & get rom ready (I recommend LiteningRom [NB, it is custom rom that can be flashed via Odin]
turn ph off & remove battery...
plug ph into pc (NB, battery still out...)
**now you may need extra set of hands here (I managed it by myself though)**
now, hold the button combo to get ph in to d/l mode...
keeping the d/l button combo depressed... put battery back into ph...
hopefully ph will show d/l mode ready on screen & it will be seen by Odin :fingers-crossed:
(if above worked) flash Litening Rom & count your lucky stars...
NB, this saved me when my S2 had BSOD.... i.e. nothing showed on screen after flashing a recommended kernel (by a more experienced user/member - not the OP)
always read up before doing anything kernel/recovery related
Try USB jig.

S6 Edge Stuck in bootloop - can't flash stock rom

UPDATE: I got stock firmware flashed on it, but as soon as it finished, it just stuck in the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge boot screen, and it won't even allow me to access recovery mode so I can wipe cache and whatnot. I'm running out of patience with this brick of a phone. It just goes straight to the same boot screen, not allowing me to get to the recovery mode. Are there any alternative ways to enter recovery mode, or alternative ways to wipe cache and partition? Please, any advice is welcomed.
Thanks in advance.
Try different odin version and cable before you messing with pit.

I had tried using three different versions of Odin, 3.07, 3.09, 3.106. I also used multiple cords and multiple versions of stock roms. And still, no success. It won't even stay off, every time it juices up, or is plugged in, it goes straight to the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge boot screen and stays there.
Mind you, I am not too familiar with anything outside of stock roms, some custom roms and rooting. Have not tested out much more than that. Any noob-friendly advice would be welcomed.
I had nand write start error once during downgrading my s6 from 6.0.1 to 5.1.1. I just tried odin 3.10 and it got flashed successfully. I was lucky then.

Well, I finally got one of the firmwares to work, it ran through Odin and everything just fine, but after it was done, it basically did the same thing, it stayed on the Samsung black screen, except without the red writing at the top..

Enter recovery and factory reset

I can't access recovery, the phone won't turn off, so as soon as it has any source of battery life, it just goes straight to the samsung boot screen and stays there.
Hold vol down+power button for 15-20sec. As soon as it reboot, hold vol up+power+home button to enter recovery.
Sent from my SM-N920C
I've tried that at least 50-ish times now, It just does not work, I tried it with a second or two delay, I tried it immediately after screen turns off, tried it so many times. No matter how long I hold them down for, it just stays at the boot screen. I can get to download mode just fine, but for some reason recovery seems to not be working.
is it a bootloop (it keeps restarting or it is frozen on samsung logo) ?
if bootloop you can try: plug in power corde. press and hold both volume buttons + home + power untill it shuts down. unplug power corde. press and hold home volume down and power for download mode. get another rom and flash it.
Hi i am having exactly the same problem can boot to download but not recovery, let the phone run out of battery and as soon as you plug it in again bootloop, i was running crisscross marshmallow rom ,custom kernel i have a backup but am not sure what or how to flash correctly in Odin any help would be much appreciated thanks .
Edit flashed firmware from sammobiles worked a treat .
Any updates on this?
I have this exact problem however I never attempted rooting my phone or changing anything on the firmware, I was on YouTube when my s6 edge crashed then entered boot loop, I CANNOT ACCESS recovery mode ,but I can access Odin mode. WTF everything is stock on my phone, never even heard of 'bootloop, Odin mode' before this happened .or even had to access my recovery mode on my s6. As I search the web for help I find solutions that require recovery mode, but I can access it. Apparently bootloop happens when people try to root but I never tired that. I don't even know what that is!
This just happened to my S6. Was watching YouTube then it crashed and entered a boot loop, can't access recovery, only download mode.

Can you get into download mode or recovery mode?
If you can get into recovery mode then wipe data/cache.
If you can get to download mode flash stock firmware and start again.
To get into recovery hold only down and power for 10 seconds, as soon as the screen goes off to reboot switch to recover combo, home and up amd power for 20 seconds until it boots to recovery. Try that first.

Samsung S6 Edge Boot Loop (SM-G925f)

Hello,
i've got a little Problem with my S6 Edge Mobile Phone. Since a few days when i press Power On, it's in a Boot Loop with the Boot Screen "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge powered by android".
The only Options i got are:
-Pressing Volume down and On/Off for restart
-Volume down, On/off and Home for Download Mode.
No Recovery Mode and if i want to shut off, i can only do this by removing the Battery.
At first, i checked all the Hardware Connections (a few Months ago, i switched the Battery, i thought, there could be a Problem with the Hardware). Then i tried to fix the Software. Smart Switch doesn't work (It couldn't find my Phone and is asking for a code), then i tried with Odin (Diefferent Versions, 1.85, 3.14 and 3.13) and different Firmwares (searchzed here, sammobile and with samfirm) and different Cables (With Samsung Original) on different Systems.
Each time Odin stops at "Boot.img".
It's an original S6 Edge with no Modification (except the new Battery) and no Root.
Can anyone help me? Thanks for your Support!
PS.: Sorry for my English, i'm from Germany and my English from School is a long time ago

If odin keeps failing at boot.img then this is because you are flashing an older bootloader. Try flashing a new firmware with the latest BL and see what happens. Try the UK BTU firmware, also I've found odin 3.10.7 or 3.13 work best with G925F
I had a very similar issue... but with my phone also the battery was dead, so i was able to turn it off by removing the charger. In my case it always stopped at the boot.img or some other. Here is what i did do to fix it
1. Use SamFirm to Download the right firmware... Download one time with binary nature and extract the pit file. The other one without binary is to actually flash.
2. Put in Download mode: In odin select the pit file and nand erase (repartition should be already checked) -> Start (Without any firmware selected).
3. The phone will now stuck at the samsung logo (maybe i a loop) *OR if i remeber correct it just showed the smartswitch restore massage(that's ok, its then already in download mode) ... start download mode (the screen will go black but that's ok)
4. In Odin select in AP now the firmware without the binary nature and flash without nand erase and repartition - Only by this weird way i was able to flash anything But it worked.
5. The phone rebooted and in my case it stuck still at the first boot graphic.
6. I turned the phone off - waited about 15h - and plucked it in without a fast charger and now it was booting.
7. It now booted android, but stucked at boot animation -> I restarted to recovery mode and wipe cache and did a factory reset. Then I rebooted and after this process it was finally booting into the welcome screen.
*Use Odin 3.13.1
I know weird, but it really actually worked for me

After you flash stock firmware, the first boot can take 15-30 minutes so leave it a little while
