Greetings!!!

A friend just sold me an S6 Edge (G925F) and when I power up the phone, I get stuck at this screen:



When I press Vol up (Continue) I get stuck in a bootloop.

How can I get around this issue??? Do I need to reinstall the OS??? If yes, can anyone give me some directions on how can I successfully flash it.

Thanks in advance!!!

Regards,

if flashing via odin gives the same result, please send the phone to samsung if it is still under warranty. i have the same problem but samsung service centre fixed it by changing the main board and battery.

I have re-read the initial post and giving it a second thought, i think that we are dealing with a stolen device.

Fix it, sell it back to your "friend" and tell him to give it back to it's rightful owner.

I'm out! :mad:

You need to be more precise about what's happening etc. This screen is not the first thing you see when you turn on the phone normally. Does it go straight to this screen or not.
If you press volume up here your phone should enter download mode in which you can flash a stock rom with odin. That your phone bootloops upon pressing volume up is kinda impossible normally because pressing up does not initialize the boot sequence or whatever, it just continues to the next screen. But seriously the screen you posted, that's not how the download mode should look on the g925f.. Home button does not show a barcode for our devices.
This is how it should look:

The colors are weird and the text about the Home button should not be there. Also at the top on your phone, the samsung brand logo also looks different than it should. Or is your phone inside a casing?
