So I have a custom deodexed stock PB1 ROM on my S5 and I really wanted Marshmallow. I followed the newly updated guide by muniz_ri on this forum under general. I followed the instructions although I knew something wasn't right. And now here we are stuck on the Verizon logo, not booting. My storage has already been wiped so if there is anything I can do using ODIN to flash kernels and ROMs, please help. Another reason why I made this thread is to get the links too because I wouldn't want to search through posts to find these ROMs. Any help is appreciated. I want to simply go back to an original PB1 ROM or any Verizon ROM where I can just OTA to Marshmallow. Thanks.

@painiac already wrote a massive guide that covers problems like this.

Scroll down to or search for the section titled "Fixing a Bricked Phone", and you should be good to go. Since it made it to the Verizon logo, it should be a fairly painless fix.
I wouldn't mind getting that pb1 tar, for some reason painaic's guide is shooting out errors for me. im also dead in the watter
