So I have an S6 which was rooted, but I wanted to unroot and wipe everything, so I decided to flash the stock rom using Odin... (Keep in mind I've flashed this stock a few times using odin, and it's always went without a problem).

Unfortunately, when I tried to do it this time it gave the error "SW rev check fail device:3 Binary:1

I tried to just restart the phone after, but get an exclamation mark inside a triangle with the message "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software".

It'd be great if someone could help me out soon as i really need my phone, cheers!

EDIT: I can still access download mode, so hopefully that's a sign it's not completely screwed!

UPDATE: So I just though I would chance it and flash unikernel (Just out of randomness, don't know why), and it restarted my phone correctly... Unfortunately it isn't wiped or un-rooted, but happy to have it working at the moment!
