925t stuck at boot screen after odin update to doj7

So guys, bought this phone used 3 days ago. The phone was rooted and the fingerprint scanner was not working giving some error. So I decided to get the phone returned back to stock.
I flashed the G925TUVU3DOJ7_G925TTMB3DOJ7_G925TUVU3DOJ7_HOME.tar file via odin 3.10.6. All files were successfully flashed with pass message but now i am stuck on the boot screen at s6 edge logo. I did a factory reset and wiped the cache but no luck.
The recovery shows an error of dm-verity verification failed... as well in the bottom. I can get the phone in download mode. The current binary is samsung official but in system status it still says Custom. I tried flashing G925TUVU2COF6_G925TTMB2COF6_G925TUVU2COF6_HOME.tar but it doesn't let me flash it as I read i cannot downgrade.
I have tried searching at different places but couldn't seem to find any appropriate solution as most of them are for cof6 or cof8 firmware. I would appreciate a lot if someone could guide me step-by-step procedure to get my phone working back.
Note: I think that the phone IMEI was also repaired as the IMEI on back glass and in the system does not match.
I also cannot get any assistance from t-mobile as I live in Pakistan. I could not attach shots as i have less than 10 posts so writing the status:
In download mode:
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G925T
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
FRP LOCK: OFF
Secure Download: Enabled
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0x0301)
AP SWREV: B:3 K:2 S:2
Recovery error at the bottom:
dm-verity verification failed. . .
Need to check DRK first. . .

It sounds like there may be an issue with your IMEI. I think you should try and use Smart Switch on your PC to do an emergency recovery. It will completely wipe the phone and reset everything to how it should be.
Emergency recovery requires the serial number in order to proceed. You can get that by going into Download mode but before you hit Vol Up to continue hit Home instead. It will show IMEI and Serial Number (the bottom number).
Samsung Smart Switch for PC can be downloaded from Here. Install Smart Switch. Start up Smart Switch and click more in upper right corner. If you don't have the Samsung drivers installed you can install them from here. Or if you would like to reinstall them.
After you are done with drivers connect your phone to the PC and click more and click "Emergency software recovery and initialization" (the first option). It should ask for your serial number. enter it and it should start doing it's thing.
Hopefully this works for you and good luck.

Thanks for the fast reply. I flashed it using the smart switch software. The program completed successfully but still the same result. Stuck at boot logo and same dm-verity error in recovery

Hello , if you still facing this issue after flash full stock
try to write unikernel v8-002 (remember FRP LOCK = OFF )
It must work ,
i am sure after flash Unikernel is will work
post result if not work

Thanks alot @jayshaa. Finally booted up... Hats off to you man...!! :good:

Sorry to disturb again... Today when I restart the phone, I couldn't pass the boot screen as I gave me the error Custom Binary blocked by FRP Lock. Frp lock turned on automatically and now I am again stuck at the boot screen. I again flashed the stock rom but the frp lock is still on. I couldn't flash the kernal as well because of this lock.
Someone please guide me to turn this frp lock off and get my phone working again.

Need to check DRK first. .
This error means at some point your efs probably was wiped meaning the drk was wiped... unless this is fixed the phone will boot loop everytime you update unless you flash a modified kernel...

So how do I fix that or turn frp lock off?

Anyone???

That can only be turned off via Developer Options in Settings. If you flashed a custom kernel then you cannot turn it off because you will boot loop. You must flash stock kernel. Or just reflash the stock firmware package.
After you get back to stock. get to developer options and turn off the FRP lock. Then you can flash away.

Getting security error, can't flash complete stock firmware because of Bl

Originally I had to follow this https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-active/how-to/guide-samsung-galaxy-s7-active-g891a-t3755939 tutorial to get back into the phone after not knowing the password of the google account that was previously setup. But whenever the phone turned off for whatever reason it would get stuck in a (unsuccessful) recovery loop. Also, when the phone was on it would tell you to restart to undo security changes or something similar. I was never able to flash the stock firmware because anytime I try to flash anything in Bl it fails with a write error. So I tried flashing many, many different stock firmwares just AP or AP,CP, and CSC but nothing can fix this security error. This actually fixed recovery mode but now the phone cannot boot successfully. Smart Switch doesn't work. There has to be something I can do if I can still boot into download and recovery mode surely?

Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed Download Mode error message

So , I just tried to flash TWRP on a SM-G960F/DS via Odin v3.13.3 and I got the error from the title in the Download Mode. The phone works 100% but I really wanna get another UI . I forgot to mention I already unlocked the OEM from dev mode.
EDIT In a way or another the ODIN said PASS but after flashing the TWRP and trying to boot into recovery I was shocked to see the stock Recovery , just why?

Maybe you have Prenormal status. You'll have to wait few days without turning off your phone and then you'll be able to flash twrp.

the prenormal is likely correct, unsure if the waiting 168 hours is still a thing or not tho.

[NEED HELP] bricked phone installing twrp

I rooted my device, everything was fine until then but i wanted a custom rom so i tried to install twrp via odin, this didn´t work and the phone would not boot (recovery error validating footer) so i downloaded the stock firmware in the forum, when i tried to flash it odin got stuck at "setup connection" for like 30 minutes so i restarted the phone and instead of going to the download screen it displayed "an error has ocurred while updating the software, use the emergency recovery function in smart switch"
Smart switch didn't work so i came back to odin, now when i try to flash the stock firmware it tells me "sw rev check fail bootloader device* binary 1" i can´t tell what binary the phone has because the notch is hiding it but i can tell that the problem is that i cant downgrade the bootloader, where can i get a newer firmware? or can i just force the downgrade somehow?
now i´m stuck with a phone that won´t boot :crying:
