Am i hard bricked? - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Am I hard bricked?
I accidently tried flashing the wrong rom onto my phone.
Now it says to use samsung emergency recovery, which doesnt work.
I lost the paper that had all the info about my phone on it..
Ive tried using ODIN to flash multiple different stock roms for the g925a and it always says FAIL.
Ive tried not flashing the boot loader.
Ive tried using the appropriate PIT
Tried different cables and usb ports as well.
edit: the phone was encrypted and had the reactivation lock on as well
Thanks for any replies

Hello,
Where can you boot ? Normal - Download - Recovery
Which PIT file have you flashed to your device ?
What was the ROM you flashed on your device ?
Where does Odin fails while flashing ?

ODIN mode only
ZEROLTE_USA_ATT - Tried with, and without
OE2, OF3, OCE, OJ9,BOI2 stock i have tried them all to no avail
Sadly I dont know what ROM was originally on the phone, I lost that paper with the info..
Odin will fail at different files, like sboot and others. Ive tried flashing with BL and without.
Thank you

Oh, you have got the phone like that?
Mm... Use SamFirm to download a full-wipe firmware (binary nature ticked).
Flash firmware with your PIT with Repart and Nand Erase All ticked in Odin

I tried flashing all of those stock firmwares above after it bricked and none seem to work.
Your program says "could not fetch info"
Im guessing I just havent got the right firmware to flash and I dont know what to use because I lost that paper with all the phones info.

What's your model and country ?
Have you put infos about device on SamFirm ?

SM-G925A bought in the US from the carrier "ATT".
Yes I tried SamFirm, it doesnt work for me. Unless I got the country code wrong.

Oh... If you have the AT&T version there's only the AT&T version.
Put "ATT" for the region.

You can boot into download mode on the phone?
Holding the volume down and power button at the same time? If so..
Use kies air, it will say that the phone is unsupported but still navigate to emergency firmware upgrade and put in the device model and S/N number located on the back of the phone or on the box, hope this works for you

I'd try using Odin to flash the stock firmware for your phone (Can be found on Samfirmware).

Unable to enter Download Mode
I flashed a wrong ROM as well, but my problem is that I can't enter Download Mode to re-flash the device with Odin.
Any idea?

Are you able to get into recovery mode still? For download mode make sure your holding down the correct key combination to get into download mode. You can also try using a USB Download jig which you can get from here, which when plugged into the phone will force the phone into download mode. As a fair warning the download jig's don't usually work with newer model phones but for a couple bucks it's worth a try. Let me know if you still have questions.
Motherboard dead?
Sorry to invade this post. I would just like to have confirmation on my device and it's pretty similar to what is found here. The only way I can access download mode is by pressing Q+Power and then adding the battery. Odin connects to everything, I can even flash the firmware from Bell for my Galaxy gt-i5510M and it PASS. But I can't still power it up, is the motherboard or something similar dead?
Thanks

If your device can still access download mode and Odin can successfully connect to your device an flash the firmware your device's motherboard is not dead. Try re-flashing the firmware to your device and checking auto-reboot option in Odin this way when the firmware finishes flashing the device will automatically reboot and hopefully power on then.
Thanks for the fast answer, you've been answering 3 people back on this thread, impressive.
Unfortunately I made sure of that, the auto reboot was checked but it doesn't reboot the device. I wanted to put a screenshot but I didn't realize you need around 10 posts to be able to post outside links. I've been looking through xda for a while but never posting.
I'm used to adb, so Odin is a bit new I have to admit. I've put the ops file, callisto in this case, in the appropriate ops , and then the One Package file I got from samfirmware "I5510UGKC5_I5510BMCKC5_BMC". Is there something else I could flash? It wouldn't be like some other phones where I could put down a Custom Recovery, go back to stock, etc. ?

To clarify did you put the firmware in the correct slot in Odin (PDA slot in this case) when flashing? Also double check your flashing the correct firmware for your device, as that could also be part of the problem.
Well you figured some things that were wrong. I was putting it in the one package slot. So I tried in the PDA slot, but it said "Invalid Image Type". From the sticker inside the battery compartment, it does say it's the GT-I5510M, so the 551 from Bell Canada it seems. But it's not easy to find a firmware for it, and the only one I found is at sammobile. There's plenty others under GT-I5510, but they're all European.
Any idea what I could use instead? The full name of the firmware I have is: "I5510UGKC5_BMCKC5_HOMEDOWNLOAD_TEST.tar" or "I5510UGKC5_I5510BMCKC5_BMC.zip" for the zip.
Thanks a lot for following this.

You can try ignoring the "Invalid Image Type" error and trying to flash anyway just don't unplug your phone from Odin until it fully completes the process.

I did, but didn't work, I should have mentioned that. So the screen is still blank. But another driver got recognized and installed once the firmware was installed, Samsung com 3 if I remember well. I was hoping when I saw that!

With the new COM port being recognized try the procedure again and see if it has any different results.
sorry to interrupt you people.. but are you sure that it is a proper firmware file. because the pda file is .tar file. also, try entering the recovery mode and flashing a cwm recovery. then check if the system is mounted.
Sorry I've been away, meaning no phone and laptop with me. Thanks for the replies. I tried to flash again the firmware last week but nothing happened unfortunately.

I can't access recovery mode, only download mode by simultaneously putting the battery back in and pushing Q+Power. But I am wondering also if it could be a wrong firmware... Can I just flash a custom rom through Odin? Would that make up for it? Anything to having back in working order.

Bricked Galaxy S4 GT-I9506

***Problem Solved***
Hi experts,
My Galaxy S4 GT-I9506 is bricked with this error:
image 1 (attached)
It doesn't go to recovery mode anymore now!!!
First I tried to install custom Rom to root it with Odin, it did seem fine with "green pass" but didn't actually install any recovery mode (there wasn't any install option in recovery mode, there were only update options), nothing happened to phone at all and it worked normal.
Second i wiped the phone and cache and I download the firmware from Samsung website.
and after try to install, it failed in Odin:
Images 2 & 3 (attached)
I'm not sure but I think it was a wrong firmware, because I bought my phone online (kogan.com i think it is in Hongkong) and I downloaded the Australia Vodafone firmware (as I'm using Vodafone sim card).
anyone can help me?!
I should mention that phone doesn't go to recovery mode, failed in Odin, Kies can not fix it! the drivers all are up to date and no Antivirus runs in my PC.
Please someone help me.
Thanks & regards
Tesius

Tks - I have tried many ROMs from different counties (other ROM or even Kernel, etc...) and upload does not seem to work in ODIN. When you find the right country ROM, did it suddenly work in ODIN?

yes, there are different operator in one country, first u have to find out in which operator of which country your phone is supported, then download the ROM from sammobile, make sure of using last version of Odin, and maybe it takes longer than u expects, for me last about 9min to get the Pass sign...
i had the same problem..so try downloading GT-I9506_501_Stock-Recovery_XXUDOF2 that file from internet and extract..and then flash it using odin..it worked for my s4 gti 9506...

Here's a little more info that might help. I tried booting the device without holding the buttons just a second ago, and this is what is on the screen.
Image size too large! W:1080, H:1920
display image fail
Secure Fail: Kernel
Ok, so I think I'm having issues because I don't have the right firmware.
From what I've been reading is that there isn't a firmware released for the i527 for AT&T correct? Or can someone point me in the direction for that ROM.

I found these files by chance in the forums somewhere, i repair cellphones and was working on a work around for the replacement screens not working for the i527 At&t, these files will put fix your current softbrick and restore you back to 4.4.2
Using odin v3.09 place each file in each location Pit in Pit, BL in BL, etc. And let finish, everything should be back working once complete. I do not take credit for these files, as stated before i found these on XDA somewhere and cant remember exactly.

Hey there, I had a similar problem, what I did was re-install the Samsung drivers and reboot the computer also I turned off my lock screen and activation on the phone. Between the two of those things it allowed ODIN to have success.

you fail because you need a pit file..I can flash my normal firmware without a problem..but if I try a other one for example a provider one..it fails..for that we need the pit..and for that we need root..to extract it from the phone..and I don't won't to root ATM..
So how can I fix the device?

No, I just want to change the firmware version because the version that came with the phone does not have Portuguese as all language. The revice was 100% stock, just tried to flash another country firmware thru Odin and it has been bricked.

O.k the only way I know around this without finding your original firmware and flashing that, is to:
flash the firmware again, and wait until it fails again,
then hold vol down + power + home to get it to restart in to download mode again but keep odin open,
then flash CF autoroot .
then wait for the phone to reboot and it will install root then it will restart two more times on it own then should boot into the O.S.
(i take no responsibility if you mess up you device though but I have done this on more than one occasion and it always works for me)
I expect you could probably do this will another recovery(stock/twrp) instead of the CF autoroot one but have yet to try.
but you probably will be better off finding original firmware but you will not have Portuguese as you want.
Good luck with trying to fix your device

Maybe you can try each of the stock versions until you get the right one for your particular device. Also maybe a model number would help someone on here to identify what version you have, I don't know just throwing that out there.

S6 edge (g925F) totally bricked

Hi, Im writting this threat to solve a problem with my s6 edge. Two weeks ago I bought a phone from Aliexpress, and when it came everithing was okey, it came with 5.1.1, so i decided to upgrade to 6.0.1. How the phone was new and i had no idea about which rom install I installed the 5 files rom XEU without making a backup of the EFS folder. After install it, the phone worked, but it wasn´t able to make calls or recieve SMS, the phone said "no registered on network". I tried to solve this problem installing a modem, but this aggravate the problem, appearing a prohibited sign in the status bar and with the IMEI and Baseband unknown. I tried to install another roms, but odin always failed, the only rom that odin let me install is the AP file of the 5 files XEU rom. I sent the phone to the Samsung technical service, and the said me that they can´t repair the phone because the phone is from Israel, and they only repair EU phone. The phone works, everything is okey but it can´t use the network services. How the technical service said me the phone is from Israel, and it came (if im not wrong) with this rom: "G925FXXU3COJ1_G925FOJK3COJ3_ILO" (5.1.1 rom from Israel), but now the only rom that works is "AP_G925FXXS3DPB1_CL7025264_QB8758701_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5" (the AP file from the 5 files 6.0.1 XEU rom). I don´t know how to solve the problem, the phone is totally new, and when I try to install any rom Odin gets fail. Can anybody help me? Is the first time I buy a good phone and on the third day it gets broken. Any solution? Please help me, thanks. (Sorry for my bad English, I´m from Spain)

Yes I have tried with Samsung Smart Switch, but Nothing, it don't let me restore the phone
Try flashing a firmware with the number 4
For example I flashed with G925FXXU4DPGW
If you try to flash with a firmware with 3 in the place of 4 it might not work. So try it.

Just flash the stock firmware for your region.
Or try to flash stock XEU or BTU. Most international firmwares and multi csc firmwares come with efs or modem files.
If you are trying to flash a branded firmware this could be why as this happened when I tried to flash EVR rom.
I can link you to the stock XEU download that I'm using.
If you get an fail in odin let me know where it fails... example hidden.img fail or system.img fail.

Hi Callumbr1, I´ve tried to install the 5.1.1 rom of my country (spain), but Odin gets fail, at first it fails at "cm.bin" archive, so I deleted it from the tar archive, then I flash the rom again and another Odin problem, it failed at "hidden.img", so I also deleted it from the tar archive, afterwards I flash again and another odin problem at "sboot.bin" (this sboot archive always fail when I try to flash a rom), so I also deleted it. After having removed the 3 archives from the original tar archive (the rom was G925FXXU3COI9_G925FPHE3COI6_PHE), the rom started to flash normally but after it the phone gets stuck on Samsung galaxy S6 edge logo.
I also have tried to install the 5.1.1 XEU (G925FXXU3COI9_G925FOXA3COI9_XEU), but also same problem at "hidden.img" and at "sboot.bin", after deleting them, another bootloop. What can I do? Maybe I have to start trying to flash 6.0.1 roms, I will also try to flash roms with number 4 how Subhy259 said. What do you think Callumbr1, what can I do?

What firmware was you on before? Was it 6.0.1? Is so you have to flash a 6.0.1 rom. You can't flash from 6.0.1 to 5.1.1.
Hidden.img fail means you need pit file for partitions.
Was the device unlocked when you got it? It could have locked bootloader which means you will have to flash the firmware it came with.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/85917/G925FXXU4DPGW_G925FOXA4DPGW_XEU/
Flash this firmware see if this works. It's multi csc European so should work.
If you get any errors copy the odin log to here so I can see. The good news is its not bricked. We just need to find the firmware that will flash

Callumbr1 I´ve alrready installed the rom you said (without any problem) and now the phone detects the sim and has the correct IMEI and S/N, but when I try to call or use the network the phone says "Not registered on network", why is this happening? How can I solve this? It´s a modem problem?

Go on to settings then reset. Reset network settings. then go onto mobile networks, set to LTE/3g/2g. Set work network to auto. Reboot phone and should work
Or set the network to the same as your sim

I've tried that but still on "Not registered on network" (it should be a phone problem because the sim works in other phones), I think it's a modem problem, maybe flashing the modem of another rom could work. What do you think?

I would say to flash a firmware that is branded by the network you have.

My SIM operator is Orange and my region is Spain. I have tried to install the last 6.0.1 Spanish and the rom was almost flashed when Odin failed at hidden.img ://

Look at this thread. You need the top pit file zerolte_eur_open.pit
In odin you need to insert the firmware into AP again and click on pit where the options are. Insert the downloaded pit file and make sure re partition and f.reset is checked and then flash.
