Help! Bricked my s6 edge. Stuck at blue downloading screen after trying to root. - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have an s6 edge 925-I. I installed unikernal and tried to root through odin 10.1.6. It detected my phone and gave the blue indicator. I went to AP and selected the unikernal and pressed start. As soon as I did that, it worked for some time and gave me "failed" in red. Again, I don't have an OEM unlocking option in my phone in the first place because it's international so I don't think that's the issue.
Anyways, now I simply have a s6 edge stuck on a blue screen saying downloading with a white download progress bar underneath it. When I connect it to my windows 8 laptop, it recognises my device but says that it gives a beep and says USB device not yet recognised.
When I try to force close the device using home and power, it doesn't work like it used to, it stays on the blue screen.
I have no clue what to do. Any help?
Some other information: reactivation lock is off, secure download is enabled and knox security void is set at 0.
Update: I pressed home volume down and power and it says " An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software. " It also recognises my phone now. Will use the emergency recovery function and let you folks know.

Flashed Wrong Recovery - CWM and Download mode don't work

I tried to Unroot my Galaxy Tab 10.1 LTE last night and think I may have bricked my tablet. I used the instructions here on the XDA forum which had a link to all the Stock ROM's in one place. I got the most recent one and the only one for USA but it said it was for the model 7510. I didn't think that would be a problem since the USB drivers I installed on my PC were also labeled as being for the 7510 and they worked.
This tablet is the SCH-I905. Now I can't get it to boot at all. Gets stuck in a boot loop. Shows the Samsung logo, then resets and does it again. I can't get it in recovery mode either. Goes to a black screen and hangs.
Using the normal process to get to Download mode doesn't work. Holding Power and Volume Up, then letting go of the Power button, then pressing Volume Down and then Up. That's one weird thing. I can get to the option screen that shows the Download and Recovery mode options. Normally I would hit the Volume Down button to select Download mode and on the screen it says to press Volume Up to continue or Volume Down to cancel. If I press Volume Up it goes to a black screen and hangs. If I press Volume Down I get the Odin Download screen that says Waiting on USB cable.
That screen doesn't look the same as what I normally see but I'm not sure what's different. I didn't memorize each line of text. I just know there's not as much text there as there usually is. My PC will not recognize the tablet no matter which USB port I try to use and the tablet doesn't recognize that the USB cable is plugged in. I had no problem with the USB connection before I flashed the 7510 stock ROM.
So, if I cannot get to recovery mode and I can't get Download mode to work so I can use Odin to flash a different rom then is this thing bricked or is there something else I can try? I am about to try using my laptop and its USB ports but I don't think that's going to make any difference.
BTW, I have since found the correct 'stock recovery rom' at droidbasement.com and downloaded it to my PC. I just need to get on the tablet somehow.
Many people have your problem. I have my Lte verizon bricked as yours. The problem is demaged bootloader, only nvflash can fix it but actually our bootloader is locked and we need a hex key called sbk. At least we have to wait that somebody hack our tab from the basement. For now we can only search and share result.

How I unbricked my LG-E450b

I think this should work for people who cannot get into recovery mode, computer cannot detect the phone or have security error message.
How I bricked my LG-E450b
I thought rooting for this phone was like my Samsung phone, so I installed Kingo-oneClick-root, got root and deleted all of the bloatware.
Little did I know that I could actually brick my phone by deleting some LG apps (Stupid LG).
Symptoms of my bricked phone
Secruity error message
Phone would not be able to go into recovery mode (Volume down + Camera button + Power button). It would restart after 3 seconds or so after the android loading gif.
Phone would not be detected by the computer
LG support tool could not detect phone (since computer cannot detect phone)
LG support tool would stop at 4% when trying "upgrade recovery"
I was basically stuck and thought my phone was hard bricked. So I started playing with the phone hoping for some magic thing to happen and I got lucky!
How I fixed my issues
Remove case and connect the phone into the computer with standard usb cable
Power into recovery mode (Volume down + Camera button + Power button)
Just before the phone displays the security error, remove the battery (phone still connected to computer).
Put battery back in and turn on the phone normally (no recovery mode)
If it worked then there should be a white message on the bottom left of the phone saying "Download mode: "
Optional: If the computer shows that the device attached has an error then you are in the right direction! Go into device manager (run devmgmt.msc) and right-click on the device that is not detected and uninstall
Optional: Hold power button until the device shuts down and repeat from step 2, the next time you get into download mode the computer will detect your device
Open the LG Support Tool (almost done) (attached in this other forum post)
The phone should get detected by by the LG support tool. Try to update the firmware. If the Support tool says that you already have the latest firmware then go in Options->Upgrade Recovery and put the model number or IMEI/ESN/MEID of the phone and click ok; the recovery process will start and your phone should work
Note: If the phone is not detected by the LG Support tool, then it will not work (it will stop at 4% when doing the upgrade recovery). The phone has to be detected for this to work.
Conclusion
These are things that worked for me, but I am no expert. This is not a full proof guide and I am only posting the steps that made the phone work. It might possibly be that you don't have to do all the steps described above to get into download mode, i.e you would just have to remove the battery at the right time to activate the download mode.
I am posting this describing the exact steps I took, so this can hopefully work for someone else.
Good luck!
TL,DR : Remove battery just before the security error message and reboot phone to get into download mode.

Samsung Note 3 Model N900T Completely Bricked.

UPDATE:
When I use a usb gig it allows me to access my phone fully on ODIN, which tells me it works in putting me in download mode. however, the screen remains black.
Hi, my note 3 is completely bricked. when I hold the power button for awhile there is a slight flash of light but the screen stays black. I cannot enter download mode or recovery mode, but I know the device is on because a blue led occasionally comes on, and when charging a red led comes on. Also it vibrates slightly when I press the and hold the power buttons. Also on odin 3.10 my devise is recognized but it cannot flash the stock rom because it cannot get past the setting up connection step ( Probably due to the phone not being in download mode). my computer recognizes it as a samsung android but says its purpose is a modem. I have tried many things and they don't seem to have worked. I have seen numerous cases like mine, but the only answers that seem to exist are put it into download mode and flash it (which I can't do), or to jtag it(I don't even know what that is). Any real help is apreciated, thanks!
Stranger things have happened, I suppose, but haven't seen a phone in the state be recovered from just Odin.
You could try this method first:

Of course, you might need to change some things depending on which variant you have and what update you are on, but that should be the general guideline.
If that fails, then:

Recommend these guys for a jtag service.

Download Mode note getting

Hii Friends,
Im using samsung mega 6.3. (GT-I9200)
im trying to update my mobile via odin. but when i try to enter download mode its not entering .
Please help me
(Volume down + home button+power button )
Dag_Nab.It
S/G MEGA 6.3 (AT&T-US) SGH-i527~GT-i9205
I have the same issue with my device not entering Download Mode. My device will ONLY go to main screen asking for password, which I no longer remember.
please help us
Still_Kicking...
VolumeUP+Home+Power, still getting 'no response' while holding all three down and releasing at start up.
*i forgot to mention that after StartUp, on the Enter Password request page, only the Power button operates. the VolumeUp, VolumeDown, and Home buttons do nothing. I have to press Power button after the screen has blacked out to bring-up the Enter Password request page again.
Today, I installed an old SIM card (SIM not provisioned MM#2) is displayed. I'll have to research this for the meaning as this is a first for me.
This time I held VolumeDown+Home buttons throughout the StartUp process. This time, on the Enter Password request page, in the lower left corner, Safe mode is stated. Anyone have some tips on what we can do while the device is in this mode as I have yet to read anything on Safe mode for any of the devices listed so far?
TO ENTER Safe mode:
Hold Power button until device starts up, release. Now hold down VolumeDown+Home buttons until Enter Password request page shows. The device should now state that its in Safe mode in the lower left corner. Please take note that this is on the S/G MEGA 6.3 (AT&T-US) SGH-i527~GT-i9205.
Galaxy Mega 6.3/ Black screen after ROM Flash
A friend of mine gave me his Galaxy Mega 6.3 as when he previously did something with the phones software, he messed something up and lost imei numbers, wifi and bluetooth wouldn't work however the phone would still turn on. Just like an MP3 player.
I struggle around a day to get this phone into download mode in order to flash its factory rom and i finally got the phone to download mode, i flashed the correct I9205 stock rom on and now the phone wont turn on.
No buttons light up including the blue LED at the top. The screen turns on and back off after a few seconds. No logo appears, but the phone does respond to the power button. Its like a bootloop but it loops before it gets to any sort of logo screen. I cant seem to launch to any sort of safe mode, recovery mode or download mode and the phone is not detected on my computer.
Any ideas on how to get this backup and running.

Did you check the PDA, CSC, and of course the md5 to make sure you had the right Firmware(ROM)? Where did you download it from?
How did you get the device into download mode?

I managed to get the device to download mode via the normal method of pressing volume home and power however it doesnt always work and it just restarts continuesly. I got the rom from sammobiles or something like that and i believe its the correct one. I have tried several other roms that is for mega 6.3 but no hope. However i did manage to get twrp installed. Do you by any chance know any os that you can link for me that i can install directly and only by using twrp installation?

There is LineageOS ROM with RR Remix. I have heard that you have to use Kies before you can use Odin3. Sorry for the late reply.
