Hello friends, I have a big problem, I had my S6 edge with root in version 5.0.2, and wanted to upgrade to version 5.1.1, is the download version of SamMobile.
When the install had no error with ODIN, but when I start not pass "Samsung S6 edge powered by Android" To me this was strange to me, so I wanted to regain root, put it on, and start the cell as it should do, but when you restart to be installed on "kernel", the phone will not start, the left turned on the screen, but now with a message in red "(boot) blocked by FAP lock".
Then I went to put the original Samsung software (downloaded from SamMobile) and the same thing happened again, he would not turn on the phone, and to this day has not on, any solution would appreciate it pretty please

Looks like you didn't disable the activation lock and unlock bootloader in developer options before attempting root. After you odin the 5.1.1 have you tried booting it into stock recovery immediately after? Try wiping the phone in there factory reset.

hi bro, i do not remember if deselect, I think not clear, but I can not see if this down or not, because the phone does not turn on, and try to reboot in recovery mod wipe data /factory reset, and dropped it back software, but it has not worked /: ....
As the phone natzy would say "No phone for you" ?.
If you odined 5.1.1 you may be Sol, some users that did the official ota update have recovered from this by flashing stock firmware, but those that updated to 5.1.1 using Odin have not had any luck recovering from FRP lock.

Hi guys,
I have the t-mobile s6 edge
After messing around with my device last night and this morning, I decided to go back to stock for a bit.
I have ODIN 3.10.6. I went into download mode on my phone. extracted the stock firmware from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841
loaded the "G925TUVU1AOCG_G925TTMB1AOCG_G925TUVU1AOCG_HOME.tar.md5" file into the ap box for odin
connected my phone to computer, odin recognized it. hit start. ran successfully. rebooted, android guy came up briefly and said installing system update, then it changed to "Erasing..." then it rebooted again
now it's just bootloops forever after the tmobile screen. I can boot to recovery and it says installing system update each time I boot to recovery, but selecting reboot system there shows a no command error. force the phone to power off... power on again to bootloops.
tried to go into download mode again and reflash everything through odin, same issue!
I started last night by rooting using chainfire, then installing TWRPv2, then I flashed the 5.1.1 ROM available from @eousphoros (sorry for the tag, just thought you might want to be apprised of the issues in getting back to stock after using the 5.1.1 ROM).
with 5.1.1 loaded, smart switch didn't recognize the phone for a reset so I decided to go with the ODIN method and now i'm in bootloop city
any help would be greatly appreciated

You probably need to do a factory reset
In the future you should make a full backup before installing a rom

AHH!! Sorry to have made this post... here's what I did to get it actually boot:
reflahed the stock firmware through odin again, tried to reboot, it failed, obviously. rebooted to recovery, factory reset in recovery, power down option in recovery, then turned the phone on again and it magically worked!
hopefully this post will help someone who encountered the same issue

I had the same excat same thing happen when flashing this via Odin. I didnt need to Odin stock twice though . I just booted stock recovery and did a factory reset. After that I went ahead an powered down and rebooted . All good now
How long did you have to wait in the stock recovery to get past the "installing system update" screen? Mine just sits there and I'm unable to view other options in recovery.
EDIT for noobs (like me): wait 30 seconds on the "installing system update" screen.
I'm still stuck in boot loop
Im in the same exact situation , but I'm still stuck in boot loop. I followed your restore instructions and nothing. Please help.

I initially used odin to flash OI1 update, after a rom I was using caused problems and I got bootloop. It changed bootloader value to b:3 and I'm unable to downgrade now so I used smart switch which didn't recognize device so used emergency recovery and still bootloop. I have factory reset and wipe cache multiple times along with adb side load and individual flashes of bootloader, modem, kernel, flashed custom kernel and twrp to access fix permissions and to mount partitions with advanced wipe etc and still wont boot past logo. Also during one fix attempt phone said can't mount system.. Idk I'm not understanding where the problem is .everything says successful but I'm still in bootloop. Please help. I've spent hours everyday for the past week searching & trying different things that seem might help so open to any suggestions.
Problem with Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini GT-I9195
Hi everyone
I'm new to the whole ROM flashing and using Odin. I had a bootloop problem and recovery mode showed all the options but has a green android man laying down with red icon above him and No Command below the android man. Tried the factory wipe and cache wipe but it gives some red writing with the word failed in the coding and the word error under the android man. Tried to flash a stock ROM from sammobile using Odin. Odin gives a pass but the same problems persist. Can someone please help?
any solution, i have this problem to? only bootloop, nothing else. Updatet bootloader with 4up

can anyone help me
im flashed phone whit dis frimwer from anroide 7 G925TUVS6FRC1_G925TTMB6FRC1_TMB
im dawnloaded this frimwer 4Files-G925TTMB3EPD1-6.0.1-By-NoLoGiG but not work or not flashed have error
hi,
so i just got my s6 edge for sprint shipped to me (it wasn't activated to any service when i got it). here is the order of events i took:
1) tried to activate my service, but there was a delay in porting the #
2) while waiting for them to port it, i rooted it, installed twrp and a rom (this was when it was on 5.0.2)
3) they called and said they were ready to port, but the new rom didn't have the activation software in it. so i stalled them and said i would call back. i then reverted back to stock using odin.
4) got the number ported and was fine using the phone at that point.
5) this is where the day turned bad...... i didn't realize that coincidentally today, a new firmware was released to 5.1.1 and the phone auto-updated to it while i wasn't looking
6) i went to go re-root it using the same 5.02 root and now my phone is stuck. it's sitting on the "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, Powered by Android" screen and in the top left in red it says "RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING"
7) i tried to restore it back to the stock using odin, but it errored in the download mode (i don't remember the error off hand)
i can get into download mode, and that's about it. i had to let the phone's battery die on it's own to turn it off (this phone gets super hot, btw)
so i guess what i need to know is how to restore back to factory default again, now that it thinks it's on 5.1.1. is there any hope?
I'm in the same boat as you, I think the only hope is to wait until the firmware is available to download and install it via Odin. Let me know if you've had any luck getting it up and running again. I had to switch back to my old phone for the time being.

check this post, download the tar and flash it in odin. it worked for my phone!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61650724&postcount=142
it got me into a recovery image that worked and i was able to factory reset in there. my phone is booting properly now. (after it reboots when done, it took a bit on the first title screen to do anything, just be patient)
Thanks man, that worked great. Although I found out in the process of trying to fix it the past few days, I must have flashed a non-compatible kernel because once it boots the touch screen is unresponsive. I guess I'll have to wait until the firmware download is available after all. Thanks again for the help though
Let me start by saying I'm new to the Samsung world, I've had HTC android phones ever since the first Hero. That being said, I was able to update my phone to 5.1.1 and use the mostly stock OF7 kernel my phone booted up the first time, starting installing some apps, then decided to reboot it. Now it just goes into the boot screen that say Samsung and in red letters up top it says "Custom Binary blocked by FRP lock". Looking back I know I should have unlocked the bootloader when I had it booted up, but I forgot. Every time I try to flash a stock kernel in Odin, it pops up with the same message, but just says "Custom Binary (Boot) blocked by FRP lock". Is there any way to get my phone to boot up again, or will I have to wait until it's possible to download the 5.1.1 firmware? Even when that download is available will I be able to fix it?
Thanks in advance.
Are you able to flash TWRP in Odin? If you can at least get to TWRP you should be able to flash a custom ROM like Sacs23.

My sm-920T t-mobile Galaxy s6 is now stuck in a boot loop on splash screen
I flashed the new note 5 kernel and firmware that just came out to it and everything was working fine until I restarted my phone and now I'm stuck in just the Samsung Galaxy s6 boot screen can't access anything but download mode do any of you have any useful info or files I may be able to flash through odin to get through this because my phone is now essentially now a locked down brick that was working awesome right before I restarted it for the first time I forget the devs. name who put out the kernel and firmware for the note 5 to work on the s6 but this damned frp block/lock has made my fully paid for s6 I just got a doorstop now and I'm so frustrated anything I'm trying to flash on odin AP. is failing and I'm just so angry. Can someone please swoop in and give me some possibly useful advice so I can get my phone to boot because it was fine..... Till the restart because just one program was f/c but I would've eventually restarted anyway so I guess once I flashed it I was doomed. DEVS PLEASE. I know someone in here has to have had the same problem and conquered it. I've tried everything in my limited repertoire. Thanks alot for any responses. I was on normal 5.1.1 s6 firmware previous was just rooted with custom recovery
Getting the same frp error. Everthing I flash through ODIN fails. Even flashing stock 5.1.1 OF7 fails. I believe it's because I was on OGA so I have to wait until the tarball for that comes out I guess. Unless anyone else has some ideas?
Try using ODIN to reload the bootloader. Google the how, there are many posts.
Hope it helps. That's what I did to get mine to work.
same-ish stuffs
So I have a new s6 on a sprint plan. Was stuck in like a boot loop with the same message in nice red letters kept coming up on the load screen. I was on OGA and had just tried to implement TWRP via the playstore. This started the boot loop. after reflashing the original rootof7.tar i had managed to get it break-free with a factory reset on TWRP(which was now working), only to have the battery die before I had a chance to do anything. after I had got it on a charger it started with the charge battery icon and the red FRP lock message. It would basically just loop there going no further unless i tried to full reset(all buttons) or download mode. Could not flash anything via odin (only recieved error messeges). Took to Bestbuy and after some shuffling around(geeksquad is terribad) I managed to get the Samsung guy to flash a stock OF7 and it works fine now. No more root or twrp and the knox reads 0x1, bu the phone is working now

can you tell me which stock rom did you use please.
So I attempted to flash the renegade rom...do not think this has anything to do with that in particular, but now I'm stuck on the screen that says the software was not installed correctly. Holding down the power, volume up and home buttons will get me back to odin but when I try to flash anything in Odin (3.10.6), it gets about 20% done and fails. I can't get into the stock recovery again. Before this happened, I was on stock OI1 and had developer options up and bootloader option on , I tried to flash TWRP but kept getting an error, then I had flashed the unikernel (V6 I believe). The phone booted correctly, but the touch screen didn't work. I rebooted several time and tried again, still screen problem. I went into the stock recovery and did a factory reset, booted, screen still didn't work. I went back to odin tried to flash the G920PVPU3BOI1_G920PSPT3BOI1_G920PVPU3BOI1_HOME.tar, but it halted with the fail message at about 20%. Tried again, failed at same time point. Very frustrating because I've successfully rooted and installed multiple roms on my S4 and Evo prior.
At this point I am stuck in the blue screen that says you need to do smart switch to do an emergency recovery, I can get this over to odin, but not recovery. I tried both smart switch and Kies, and both say the phone isn't supported by the software(s). Yes, the drivers were installed prior to. I've tried waiting for the battery to discharge as well, nothing.
I'm at a loss of what to do now. Phone is inoperable and I can't even get into a screen that tells me anything about versions of hardware or software. The barcode is still intact and I can still get into Odin, but nothing more than that. Stock kernel to flash? Why won't odin finish the upgrades? Anything?
The phone is about to go in the trash...Help!

What I would recommend doing is to try using Kies 3 its pretty much Samsung's take on iTunes. It maybe able to help you. Otherwise, try redownloading the latest tar avabile which is: OJ7 also, try Odin v3.10.7

Thanks for replying.
I tried Kies and Smart Switch, but both did not recognize phone. I did manage to find out that TWRP has a sprint variant and that it seems to be incorrectly labeled in many posts. The sprint variant is 2.8.7.0 NOT 2.8.7.1. I managed to flash it in ODIN and now it boots into Recovery, which is a start. I tried applying the renegade rom, but it wouldn't finish and I'm left with a 'no OS detected, do you want to reboot?' from TWRP.
TWRP website isn't much help (but I love that product). At this point, still cannot tell what firmware is on device and where to go from here. I think I may need a recovery of some sort, but don't have. Tried flashing OJ7 tar as recommeded but it continues to fail when it hits the 'system' part of the download.
Still need advice/help....etc.
Since you are now in recovery, wipe everything!
Cache, System, Data, Internal Data and Dalvik Cache. After that, reboot into Odin and try restoring once more in odin. If that does not work, then wipe everything again and try installing Renegade once more.

Since you are now in recovery, wipe everything!

Thank for the reply. I did just that and after installing Renegade with kernel version 8, three times, the phone is up and running. Really appreciate the help.

You should be able to use odin on your PC tp send an image to your phone.
Lookup, for example, how to root your phone in these threads.

I have a Verizon Note 4, and I tried to flash 2 different 6.0.1 firmwares, and they flash through Odin fine and get a 'pass', but when the phone reboots it goes into recovery and goes to 'installing system update....' and gets stuck on that. I've done it 3 times and it still goes to that after it flashes the firmware. I have no idea why. I appreciate any help.
factory reset.

Unfortunately when I booted into recovery it went to the same installing update screen. I attempted to flash stock firmware again last night, and for some reason it failed. I then plugged my charger in with the phone off and a screen popped up saying something about software update failed and to use Verizon's repair assistant or something. I tried to flash stock firmware again in Odin 2 more times and now it fails for some reason, and I downloaded the verizon software repair assistant and it doesn't recognize the phone, and does mention something about Google having guidelines for phones above 6.0 to have something enables in the phone settings in order to connect, but I can't boot the phone. At this point I think this phone is a paper weight.
USB debugging.

How? I can't boot into the OS... Is that possible to turn on when the phone won't boot into the OS or into recovery?
