Flashing Samsung A50 - Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers

Hello, techs. I need help. My Samsung a50 is not turning on to normal and not charging. It stuck on the Samsung logo. I googled some troubleshooting but they are not working. I'm trying to boot it on recovery but there's no chance. I even tried doing that while charging on external power and on my laptop, but no chance. The only thing I can do is boot it on download mode.
I'm trying to flash it with Odin but the problem is which firmware do I need. I look upon the IMEI and model number of the phone at its backplate (356796101130659, SM-A505GN). I tried to check my IMEI on samfw.com to see which PDA version I need but the problem was the details are not matching. The model number shown is SM-A505G and its carrier ID (XTC, Philippines) is nowhere to find.
Device's details on the backplate:
IMEI: 356796101130659
IMEI: 356797101130657
S/N: R58M46SAJXK (matched)
MODEL: SM-A505GN
Device's details on samfw.com:
MODEL: SM-A505G
PDA: SM-A505GZWWXTC
S/N: R58M46SAJXK (matched)
Any suggestion?? huhu, please. I need my phone now as a tool for board exam review.

Ok, sorry for not understanding the whole world, but I also tried z3x, but it wasn´t sucesful. Can you please describe how to work with z3x in that 3.3.4. points?
Thank you very much
The main reason for telling you to google it is because I also don't know. My phone was unbranded.
On that forum there were more people asking questions, and those questions may help you.
I found that information from google also
I don't even know what z3x is...
So guys, no idea how to unlock it by yourself?

locked apns

I've been trying different ROMs and would really like to run Venom, but for one problem, my phone isn't logging into my provider correctly. I can use Change APNS to look at the APNs when using the stock ROM and there are some with locked symbols. I can look at the info (even though it's greyed out) and it is the correct info for my provider. I need some way to save that info and re-use it when I flash Venom onto the phone. Before someone says "just use Change APN to backup and restore the file", I can't do that either, I get a no access allowed message from the app. I tried making it a system app with Titanium Backup and it starts the process and hangs. Most all of this nonsense is due (I think) to 5.1 being so picky about trying to do anything in /system.
I'm not sure exactly what info to post to be more helpful in finding an answer, but if any of you guys can help, I'd sure appreciate it.

1) watch reboots but I have no touch screen sensitivity
2) can get into wireless download but watch is searching for AP without success
Any ideas or am i bricked
