Bricked S8, have tried multiple solutions - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

I successfully rooted my phone but it got stuck in a bootloop when I restarted it.
I can't enter recovery mode or turn it off, all I can do is enter odin mode.
I have tried:
1. The AGQ5 fix (https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...g-aqg5-fix-t3636857/post73032395#post73032395) it doesn't work.
2. Smart switch, it says my device is unsupported
Please help!

1- flash twrp again
2- flash stock rom with odin ( download mode )
you can reboot just with vol - + shut down B

you maybe installed the wrong version of twrp the latest one is for the new bootloader if you have the older bootloader install the last version

It doesn't boot into TWRP even after I flash it again

Sorry if I'm asking a question but how do I check my bootloader version? I just used the latest version (twrp-3.1.1-0-herolte.img.tar) from a site but I can't link it.

Flash full stock in odin. Then you can try twrp again if you wish.

It worked, thanks so much for all your help. Words cannot describe how grateful I am.

Don t panick. I did that already... You need to disconnect the cable and take out the battery. Then you press on the 3 buttons for a while (to empty the note completely) and put the battery back in. When you press the 3 buttons again it should be in download mode again.
To me it happened i think due to the fact i didn't tick update boot loader in odin 1.85. After ticking it and flashing no problem any more. Good luck
Thank you both for help. I fixed. Now i have kitkat with root but is another problem about cwm recovery. I was flashed by odin 6.0.4.5 and was successful but not working on my phone i cant get in. Always when i pressing tree buttons is "RECOVERY BOOTING" and restarting phone and booting system normal. Any advice?

Reflash stock firmware with Odin and after that data reset, then find a custom recovery like this one http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/hltetmo and flash it with Odin and flash the latest superSU.zip in recovery and you`re rooted.

I suggest you do the following;
First boot into stock recovery and do a factory reset, reboot and see if it boots up to android.
If that doesn't work, you can either odin a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM. Make sure you flash the latest one for KK as I've seen lots of people flashing one for 4.3 when they have a 4.4 bootloader.
Lastly, you can odin the stock firmware for your phone which can be downloaded off sammobile.

I tryid to install new rom but its stuk at nand write start
pls help me
Boot into download mode (Volume down & Home & power)
Flash a Stock ROM from Sammobile dot com with ODIN 3.09 or above
thanks for reply
but i tried lolipop from sammobile and odin 3.9 ,3.10 still stuk at nand write start
Try the Kies recovery Option. You need the modelnumber and the imei. They are located under the battery i think. Maybe it restores the KitKat 4.4.4 Version. Good luck

S6 edge plus custom binary blocked by frp

Hello guys. I'm new to XDA and I'm really tensed about my new s6 edge plus. I got it out of the box, booted it up and everything was working fine until it ran out of battery and shut down. I tried booting it up but it's stuck on the boot screen with an error 'custom binary blocked by frp lock'. I'm able to access the download and the recovery mode but I don't know what to do with it. I did my homework but I don't know how to odin flash or odin reset my device. Please help me out with this guys as i'm using my stupid iPhone to write this right now and I just wanted to switch over to android. Really worried. Looking forward for a reply. Also the model is asian, SM-G928C
Cheers.

That's good! Did you get the stock firmware from Sammobile for your model? And you odin flashed it right? And also, do you why this locked in the first place? And how to prevent it in future?

you just install frimware latest one and activate it with ur google account. than oem unlock than flash with root via odin
Im having this issue with my phone i accidently ticked off the oem unlock in development settings I put the phone in download mode because thats the only mode i can get into (recovery and regular boot does not work) when I connect to pc now it shows up as usb serial device in ports or it shows up as samsung modem and odin wont flash the firmware
I never had any issue. You get a single recovery.IMG and flash it. The s6e+ is tricky. You should have a custom ROM or what you want to flash ready and just flash twrp, boot immediately into it. Backup phone via twrp then wipe it and flash custom ROM. This will ensure you don't get any real issues or fpr blocked. Also use XDA tuts or get help here, YouTube can go good or bad. Recovery images are device specific. If you have f and flash t it won't work. You have to really look at what you are flashing and match model information. I'm seeing a lot of people fpr blocked and in trouble. I might go make a little walkthrough

Probably you'll need to flash stock rom via Odin.
Or via Smart Switch.
And this is a wrong forum for S10 plus.
