So just finished unrooting my tmobile s6 edge via Odin by flashing the latest firmware so I can take it back. Everything seems to be normal and have gone back to stock except the splash screen. I've already Odin the firmware twice and every single time I reboot my device the custom splash screen is still there.
Any way I can get the stock splash screen back? Any help will be appreciated. Thanx

If you get a custom recovery back then you can flash the attached file to revert your splash to stock. This file is only for the T-Mobile variant of the S6 Edge. Otherwise you can use emergency recovery in Smart Switch.

I have been trying to find an answer for the last several hours. But I can't seem to get anything to work.
I have the AT&T GS3 and I was able to flash AOKP but then I wanted to revert back to stock. I tried the toolkit and followed the steps and what might of happened is that AOKP did not get wiped completely when I flashed the stock image. Now after successfully flashing the stock image (I get the PASS! on Odin), my phone is stuck while booting. It goes past the AT&T boot image but gets stuck on "SAMSUNG". I tries flashing through ODIN, another downloaded version of the stock image but it didn't work. What am I doing wrong?
Another problem with being stuck in bootloop is that since I flashed the stock image; I think I no longer have CWM. I can't find a way to get to recovery.
I'm not really sure how to help but if you can get to the boot animations you aren't bricked. I know you're not on verizon but in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1759642 it says when coming from an AOSP rom back to the stock rom you have to flash a stock boot.img before flashing the stock rom. Hope you can get it working again
Did you make a nandroid backup before you flashed the Rom...if you did you can restore from cwm recovery...hold power, volume up, and home...after the screen goes black let go of the power...hope this helps

If you can get into download mode , just flash recovery from odin.
And how long have you waited at samsung logo , it might take few minutes to bootup.
I don't have CWM recovery. It got stuck on the Samsung logo for 20 minutes before I gave up and did a battery pull.
What do I flash through odin to get it working again. Which recovery file?
Ok, I just used the method described in this article and I am still stuck at the SAMSUNG logo.

Tried that. Still same problem. Noticed that the boot-stock-att-sgh-i7.tar is only 10.5 mb. I don't know much about this, but is that tar file enough to get me unbricked?
usually the .tar file should be much larger than that. It's possible that the file you downloaded got corrupted. Try re downloading the file and than flashing it again.

just re flash stock in odin flash Flash this file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737848
Ok so I went to go flash a new ROM called Liquid Smooth, doesnt work at all. Which is fine, figured I would just go back to Codename or FreeGS3 since i made a nandroid of both. Attempt to boot into recovery n the phone will not, so that sucks. So I then try to go through Odin and put the stock ROM tar file on my phone n just re-root the phone again from scratch. Put the stock ROM on the phone, Odin says it passed, it reboots and is stuck on the Samsung loading screen. Tried multiple times through Odin and the samething continues to happen. My phone is now a paperweight and useless. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

How long did you wait for the phone to boot at Samsung screen ? if not long just wait some more !!
I almost dont want to assist based on the title of your thread. your phone is not a paperweight. You need to wipe data so the rom will boot. Flash the custom recovery below in odin and boot into it after the odin flash. As soon as that screen goes dark immediatly press volume up+home+pwr. youll get in

Yea do this but before flashing the recovery in ODIN un-check the Auto Reboot option so you can pull the battery after the recovery passes. If the last thing you flashed was the stock Odin file you now should have stock recovery

I let it sit there for 35 minutes waiting for it to boot, still no go.
My custom binary count is at 10, idk if that has anything to do with it not being able to boot into recovery.

flash stock rom via odin
if you can get into recovery, do a factory reset, and reboot, and it should come up for you; you may just want to do a battery pull first and see if that does it

I honestly don't know, but you mentioned your problems started when you flashed Philz Recovery... the logical course of action would be to revert to a different recovery and completely eliminate the recovery as being part of the problem.

ok i did that and i installed the stock rom everything back to stock and when the phone starts it doesn't give me the welcome screen it gives me as if i did a regular install and a square pops up with yellow letters telling me the phones info i cant get rid of it either unless i delete the phone test fb.apk, then i still have the power button doesn't show me restart, ect. and the lock screen wont work it will turn off but when i turn back on it goes back to the main screen the lock screen wont come up, not even if i put a pin for it to lock. What if i install the canada version stock and then re-install the usa version will that make it work or will that brick the phone ? thanks for atleast answering.

I assume you used Odin to revert back to stock using one of the stock .tars?

This is going a bit over my head, talking about the pit file and all... I will say that it probably wouldn't be advisable to flash the Canadian tar, but but any farther than that I'm not sure.
One thing I would say from my personal experience the other day, I used Odin to go back to stock while using a TouchWiz ROM... Odin said it was successful, I had stock recovery again, but when I booted the phone and went into stock TW, all my data was still there, I still had root, all my settings were the same, etc. I flashed custom recovery again, did a full wipe, and flashed a CM ROM. After doing all that, I again tried to revert to stock using Odin. That time, all data was removed and it was just like I had unboxed the phone for the 1st time (save a flash count or two) and it was all good to go. As odd as it may sound, I'd say flash something non-TW, then start the Odin process again.

I attempted to unroot my tab s with a stock image using Odin. Usually this works with no problem. I had CM11 installed and was going back to stock. It went through the whole process but when it reboots, it gets to the screen where it says Samsung but goes no further. I can get into download mode with no problem but flashing the stock image will not let it boot up correctly. Any help would be appreciated.
Stock Kernel?
Wipe cache and dalvik cahche in recovery.
I cannot boot into Recovwey. I can get it to reboot either into download mode. Also when it reboots it will just go to the screen that says Samsung.. It is the screen right after the one that has the actual Ssunf logo and it says SM-T700
I would guess flashing another rom from the uk or different country would work? You should be able to get into recovery by holding the power home and vol up button.
When I do that it reboots but just brings up the same Samsung screen and it stays there. Is there something I can try to flash through Odin because I can get to the download mode? I already tried flashing the stock firmware but not the latest version. Maybe I can flash the latest?
