Hard bricked Galaxy S4 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there!
I've rooted a few phones before (the old ways, including a S6 recently) without any problems.
But, doing TWRP method whith Odin http://galaxys4root.com/galaxy-s4-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s4-using-twrp-method/
I've had bricked it. Fail message everytime. If I just knew that there was so easy newer ways...
I'ved tried to install the stock recovery md5 file but it doesnt work. In fact I've tried so many files in the past 3 weeks ...
I think one of the cause (exept that I'm a bit dumb) is maybe that I cant find the rignt one.
My model is SGH-M919V (Canadian) but there's so many sub model numbers that I've wrote to Samsung directely. No big help, no surprise...
I can boot the phone in recovery menu so, in rage, I've wiped it all/factory reset.
I can still boot the phone in recovery menu and download mode.
And your are the last step between me, my phone and the garbage bin.
Thanks in advance.

Problem solved!
Thanks to audit13 :good::good::good:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Try to get into download mode, and reflash rom with ODIN.
Go to sammobile.com to download firmware for you device.
Give feedback.
solved it
After resting...flashing stock rom, hard re setting, basically watched every video on how to fix a Samsung that won't get passed logo. I ended up getting kies and i entered in my serial number and model number and it fixed my phone in about an hour with my proper software.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 N910C Official ROM FILE (.img)

Hi everybody,
Does anyone know where can I find an official ROM file (.img format) for a Note 4 N910C model for a model purchased in Mexico? I need to flash it from my sd card since I'm having some problems during the boot loop. (It' gets stuck after Samsung Logo and reboots alone)
Any suggestions, please, to solve this problem asap? I have tried many ways found in the web (flashing with odim3 can't be done due to fail warning while selecting start), hard reset, wiping cache partition, without much luck. Really, this is driving me crazy.
Thanks a lot for you help.
Cheers

S6 Edge Brick?! :'(

Hello Guys and Gals ^^
First of all, sorry for my english, i hope everyone can understand my problem
Yesterday my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge shut down with an batteryload of 90%, after that it just entered a bootloop... :/
Since i've never had a CF or anything like that on my phone, i first thought of an hardware problem.
So i started reading here and some other forums, and tried as recommendet to flash the stock firmware via Odin3.
Now i can go beyond the Samsung - spondered by android or whatever it says - startscreen, the Blue LED starts and i enter the Samsung logo, which blinks for 3-4 times, just to reboot after that again... I also tried other versions of odin and other stock FW for my SM-G925F (Unbranded). Btw, also tried other USB ports, New Cables, Smart Switch... no Kies is running in the back while using odin.
Everytime i used Odin, it seems to work and my phone starts in the recovery mode with the little android guy, saying that its downloading sytem update... ERASING is the last thing he says after 20-30%, and the bootloop starts again. Also wiped cache and did Factory reset, but still no changes
I only used the 1 Part FW for odin. Hopefully that informations are enough for someone to help me out, but if there is a lack of informations, just ask for what you need to know further
I hope someone can help me, since i dont have the money for a new smartphone ^^
