So I decided to go ahead and root my player. Then I found this custom rom and followed their instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1517194
It keeps on bootlooping my device, and even though installed steves kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377771
(which contains CWM) I cannot boot CWM recovery from boot.
It booted up a few times in CWM recovery, but now it doesnt want to. Since then ive tryed flashing steves kernal sveral times to see if I can get it to work. It hasn't.
I really just want to get my device back to stock, I have a stock rom but it still gets stuck in a bootloop.
Help!

I figued out how to get into recovery mode (power button + hold up volume). Now to figure out how to fix the bootloop....(I tried followign th instructions here but to no avail: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660596)
FIXED
OK i managed to fix my own problem. I installed steves kernel, cleared the cash and the dalvik-cache. Then I flashed the stock rom and wiped all data(reset the factory settings) and then cleared the cashe.
Then my device booted up properly. :good:
Glad to hear you fixed it

You get into Clockwork mod by turning off the device. Then Hold power, Volume up, and the settings (the one to the left of the home button) at the same time. Sometimes you have to let go when the samsung logo appears and then hold it again

could you give more incorrect info, the CORRECT steps for entering CWM (or stock if not using a custom kernel) is to power device completely off, wait for the vibrate to indicate shutdown. Then press and hold volume up and the power button, once the samsung logo comes on release only the power button, do not release the volume up, continue holding volume up until CWM loads.

On my 4.0 US I don't hold the volume any longer than the power button to get into CWM--i.e., I let both go at the samsung logo, and it goes in.

That's how I always entered CWM or the stock one lol. It works for me. Also another way I did it was wait until the samsung logo appears and then hold power + volume up at the same time. I didn't let go of either the power button or volume up button, and just waited for it to come on.
Next time for a better result Go to a stock rom and Flash a kernel with odin. best way to Install CWM perfectly.
like Terra Silet, i have Gplayer 4 and Rooted This Kernel One Milion time

I unbricked my phone with this guide. my phone was in a OS bootloop but it works, in your case, a Kernel Bootloop. Its a very good guide. You DO NOT need to root your phone. When flashing, instead of pressing back you press volume down. The phone should be able to enter what it is called, flash mode regardless of what problems. After flashing ALL DATA WILL BE LOST. Just follow the guide.

Do these
1.Remove your Battery and at the time of putting battery just press (volume up + down and power button ) remember at that instance only
2.After Doing Above step your Download Mod will Start
3.So just Flash now proper Firmware and then Boot it into Recovery and do wipe data/cache and then start the phone
4.If still not booting than flash It again it will boot up

try this. download the odin multipackage from here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1552792
If you already have any other s%830i file then it is fine. remove the battery from phone. connect it to the computer. open odin. now press the volume+ and volume- and end key. the download mode will be on. If you get a blank screen, still press the volume+ button. If you have enough luck, you can see that odin has recognised your device. Now flash the firmware.
Just press thanks if i helped:silly:
S3 Stuck on Samsung Logo
Hey guys, i was using a custom ROM and i flashed the stock ROM with odin but my phone got stuck on Samsung logo. Then i remembered i forgot to enable USB debugging. Could it because of that? and my volume buttons are not working so i cant go into download or recovery mode and o tried using adb, device not found. Im thinking about going into download mode with an USB jig and flash the stock ROM with odin again. Do you think it will work? Thanks*

similar thing happened to me but my aim was to install back to n00t kitkat 4.4.4
you could try flash it again if it doesnt work you could get twrp and flash a custom rom (if you want to) that saved my s3 from getting stuck on samsung logo

you need to get your phone in downloading mode so first of all turn off your phone and then
press HOME + VOL DOWN + POWER BUTTON HOLD IT then you will see something about customroms and some other text in green. now plug in your phone and Odin Should recognise it, then you can flash twrp on it (.tar format)
To get twrp just search "twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar " (without quotes) and then you should find some results.
How to flash TWRP
once twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar is downloaded go on odin and click PDA and navigate to twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar and click start and your all done
How to get into Recovery
HOME + VOL UP + POWER BUTTON HOLD IT FOR 2 SECONDS

Hi guys, I've owned an S6 Edge in the past.
Due to my fondness, I purchased another one last week (Arrived today).
Damn, it's in mint condition! I purchased it knowing it wouldn't boot.
The guy had a picture of download mode stating it needed firmware/rom.
Not a problem I thought! I went through all this with my past S6 Edge.
I got the phone, got it out the box, thought hmmm... Won't boot, must be dead!
Plugged it in (First issue) I didn't get a charge screen, but a S6 Edge Powered by Android (bootloader screen)
Anyhow, I've flashed the latest stock firmware, continues to bootloader screen and sticks.
I've flashed TWRP and I can enter TWRP, flashed multiple custom roms, still stuck at the bootloader screen.
Flashed the stock firmware with re-partition and a PIT file, still stuck at the bootloader screen.
Any help? Is this phone done for or am I missing something?
This would have been my daily driver after smashing my S9, needed a non contract phone. I LOVED my old S6.
It is a G925F, not sure what firmware it had previously, haven't had a single successful boot.
Try to install Android 5 firmware on it.. And when it's booting up (SAMSUNG LOGO) Click Power+Volume down button.. When it's powered off.. Quickly, Click Power+Home button+Volume up and you will be booted to Recovery Mode.. Click wipe data, cache then reboot system.. Wait till the phone boots completely.. Then, you can flash twrp and custom roms... Tell me if it worked..

Hi mate, I've tried installing (and successfully) Android 7.0. It stays on the 'powered by android' galaxy screen.
I can get into TWRP and install custom roms successfully, just stays on the said screen again.
Also, might be worth noting, when I plugged the phone in to charge it just goes to the same screen mentioned.
If I hold Power and Vol Down while plugged in it will go to the battery and the thunderbolt, just no animation.
Also LEDs not working.
Just do it...Dont plug your phone when ur doing power+volume down thingy..Android 5 firmwares are a little bit different than marshmallow and nougats..So just flash it and you will see the profit

How long are you leaving it on the bootloader screen after flashing stock? First boot can take 15-30 minutes sometimes
hey just do the following...
Hi...if your problem is still active - not solved! Here a little Note for you that maybe help you to get s6 edge running again.
First you need to start Odin 3.12.03 with Admin rights!!!
Then you could use the Firmware from my Google Drive if you want. Its the German Variant with CSC-DBT
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pDybynK6_Huu-vjM_azIjgz30IIhlEAP/view?usp=sharing
If you want to use SamFirm by your own. Keep attention that you check the "Binary Nature" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If not...its just 1,9 Gb and dont work
If yes...its over 2,3 Gb and work fine
shutdown phone with Vol- and Power (keep holding both)
then start into downl mode with Vol- and Home and Power (keep holding all together)
connect phone to usb
after flashing rom the first start could take up to 10-15 mins...not more on stock firmware
if the first start is done and your in the screen where to type your sim pin
power off the phone and unplug usb
start into download mode again
reset Odin and select the twrp.zip into ap
plug usb again
flash twrp with odin
phone restart automatically...just wait the minute
then shutdown and start into twrp recovery with Vol+ Home and Power (keep holding all together)
so good luck man
