Does anyone have the very latest G928VVRS3BPL3 that was pushed Dec 29, 2016? Willing to PayPal for a good copy that will ODIN into the VZW S6 Edge+...

Alternatively, if you don't have a copy of PL3, do you know of anyway I could ADB my way into wiping the corrupt PL3 patch away? Perhaps zero out the instructions that initiate the patch at launch or something? If I can simply boot up - fantastic, but I'm in this infinite boot loop of installing PL3 to 24% and going belly-up.

I'm almost embarrassed to say I PAID for a copy of PJ3... but I can't find this latest Dec 1st security update patch anywhere on the web.

My brother's S6 Edge+ had a corrupt OTA update - this last update, the G928VVRS3BPL3.

He's currently running PJ3 on there and I can reflash PJ3 a million times - I can format data & cache partitions. Somehow, it still has the corrupt PL3 update lying around in there - I don't know where it's stored or how to just kill it off, so I'm in an infinite boot loop. It installs PL3 to 24% and then the Android dude goes belly-up with a yellow hazard sign and we begin the boot loop process over again.

The phone is out of warranty. Contrary to Verizon store morons (sorry!), my brother didn't try to root the phone. He doesn't know how to do any of that stuff. The OTA is corrupt - plain and simple. Knox isn't even tripped. They accused him of trying to root the thing - heh.

Since the phone is out of warranty, no one will fix it for him. I'm his only hope, and I'm not much of a hope right now.

You're MY only hope.

This is a great phone, too. I feel bad for the guy. He woke up to his phone dead one morning. That's it.

:crying:

Go to SamMobile's website. They have firmware for basically any Samsung smartphone ever made. They upload firmware for devices as Samsung releases updates. Also, I'm just going to throw this idea out there. Maybe your drivers aren't installed correctly, or it could even be your computer. Try doing it from a different computer. On sammobile the firmware downloads extremely slow. Maybe pay for the premium service to download it faster. I'm not an expert, but I hope these ideas help!
