Reflash the firmware to your phone again but this time go into odin settings and uncheck auto reboot and after odin is successful hold down the power button and the volume down button at the same exact time until the screen turns off and when it comes back on use the volume down button to select/highlight factory reset and then tap the home button to continue.. It should work after that.

Your bootloader might be locked.

Hi!
I just update to lollipop 23.1.A.0.726 using pc suite, now i want to have root access but i can get in to recovery, the led indicator never turns on, the phone works with no problems so the led indicator, what should i do?
cheers!
Recovery mode/Hard reset option
I have same problem. I don't have custom recovery but what Im trying to do is hard reset.
I am waiting for the LED to appear before pressing volume UP. After several attempts I gave up waiting for the LED and pressed (many times) the up button soon as I feel the vibration after pressing power on.
no luck. I don't get the option to do hard reset
Any ideas? How do I do a hard reset?
well after search all over the forum i end up with 2 solutions
1-the first was to flash the kernel using this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/tutorial-how-to-boot-to-recovery-lp-690-t3069984
but in a very stupid way i could not do it ( i was using wrong dir ), but im not shure if this method would work.
2- the one i use, i just downgrade fw to 23.0.A.2.93
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/how-to-root-backup-drm-keys-t3013343
after getting recovery i flash 23.1.A.0.726 Lollipop 5.02, Odexed, Pre-Rooted 2.46, XDualRecovery 2.8.14
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-...03-lollipop-5-02-odexed-pre-rooted-2-t3090505
and done!
I backup all because I erase all
Would thoroughly appreciate any kind assistance. I have a note 5 model no SM-N920I. I come from Singapore, and this phone is unbranded (not carrier specific). What happened was, i received an OTA update and thus went ahead with downloading the update. Immediately upon successful update, my phone started crashing and constantly rebooting on its own. Until one fine day it crashed and went into bootloop.
After which, i had attempted to reflash stock Firmware using Smartswitch. It was successful but the phone was still stuck in bootloop. Any attempts to force the phone into recovery mode (home + vol up + power button) was not successful. I couldnt even switch off my phone, with the screen stuck on the samsung screen, untill the battery drained. Any attempts to charge the phone would cause the phone to turn on but stuck on the samsung screen. Able to go into download mode, and already checked the vol up button is not faulty.
Attempted to reflash stock via ODIN, was successful also, but still in bootloop and unable to force into recovery mode.
Phone had never been tampered with before this issue, never rooted,never messed with. Appreciate any help offered. Thanks

Hold both the volume down and power button at the same time until the screen turns off, when it turns back on use the volume down button to select factory reset and then tap the home button and follow through with it.
At this point you can flash the twrp recovery from Odin. My be that recovery works for you and in this you can wipe the phone.
Hello. I am new here and sorry if broke any rules.
I have note 5 n920L. Bought it used. Received update 7.0. After it, it worked for 2 days and than started working slowly. Restarted and after restart I saw blue screen - "installing system updates". The same screen was for 10 hours. It could not load into recovery mode for wiping. It could not install firmware from download mode. Cannot add here photos because do not have 10 posts.
When trying installing firmware, odin stops on system.img.
When trying recovery mode, it does not enters there.
I see recovery mode after hours trying installing system updates. When I click on wipe data or cache, I have errors:
no support single - sku
supported api: 3
dm-verify verification failed
e: failed to mount cache (invalid argument)
e: cannot mount cache recovery last install and many other similar errors
FRP IS LOCKED. STATUS IS CUSTOM (do not know how and why, if it was custom could not receive update..)
If you can get into download mode you should try Samsung smart switch.
Samsung smart swithc writes that the this device is ot supported. Why it writes so, do not know. It is original n920L
Try this.

bro use kies to recover your phone but all data will be lose if u do this format.
Get your model , serial and IMEI number
If you can go to download mode then flash.... twrp-3.0.2-2-noblelte.img .... (Google plz) by putting the file in ODIN (AP) and flsh it. Then u can go in TWRP mode. Once u go in TWRP mode then u can connect ur phone to PC & put any custom rom depending on model u have & flash the custom rom. Later u can download the latest firmware from sammobile & flash the stock rom.
Another Solution: if u have flashed stock rom or reflashed the rom but giving same bootloop problem then Use 3 fingers i.e. volume up-volume down-power button and press it till the samsung logo starts flashing. Immediately again using 3 fingers press volume up- power- home button for long time till u get stock recovery. U have to do this the time when samsung logo goes off. Now from stock recovery wipe cache, dalvik and then select factory reset and then power off. Later put ur phone ON and around 20 minutes Ur phone will start with the latest stock rom.
I had same problem on my 920C & 920i model but both were saved by the procedure given above.
Need a clearer understanding of the steps needed

Ok i get the holding vol down and power button pert(simulate battery removal) and the screen will go off, before coming back on, but correct me if im wrong, u want me to continue holding down the vol down button all the way and the phone will provide options to factory reset? Sorry im not too good at reading between the lines...
Would it really work with KIES?

Wow thats detailed man. Appreciate the effort taken. Will head home, have a more in-depth read, and try out the steps. Will update if successful. Thanks again mate.
Kies is not supported for newer models than note 4 and s4 are. Is not it right?

The time u flashed the rom before the bootloop started did u checked in ODIN the GREEN BLOCK with PASS!!! written. If yes then U do not have any FRP lock problem or else the rom could not be flashed anyhow.
And if ur getting the bootloop this means the rom has been flashed but stuck on Samsung logo for several minutes. In this case im sure ur phone can go in stock recovery. Just send the image of the phone when it says FRP lock.
It wrote fail. Cannot flash firmware too, it stucks on system img.

Hello, I have a SM-N920P with a custom FRP (FAP) Lock. I searched every forum and videos on YouTube to find out how I can unlock my phone. Most of the people downgrade the phone into 5.1.1 (Lolipop) or 6.0.1 (Masrshmellow) and the phone should boot to normal. However, I've used latest Odin (3.12) or Z3X Tool v27.2, and I cannot able to disable the FRP lock. I tried to used Z3X to disable the locked, but it kept saying "Searching Samsung USB Flash Interface... detected COM4
Setup connection... OK
Reading PIT from phone... OK
Searching FRP lock... OK
Erasing FRP... OK
Searching Reactivation lock... OK
Erasing Reactivation lock... error
Done with Samsung Tool PRO v.27.2"
Besides the FRP lock, I am unable to downgrade or using the stock ROM to flash the phone, it kept saying error and fail with various attempts. HOWEVER, I am able to flash my phone using the latest 7.0 Nougat (DQE1), and (DQC5). Yet, the phone keeps booting on a loop with a Samsung logo. This is a really rare case and I need anybody know more experience than me can help. Please reply ASAP and I'm looking forward for your reply. Thank you.
After flashing the stock 7.0 nougat. If it is in bootloop for 5-10 minutes. Power off your device. Go into recovery. Do a factory reset. Restart device.
Did you have any mods? I had the same problem yesterday. OEM Unlock was getting turned off and I don't know why. Just do a factory reset as the user above me said. Odin will not allow you to downgrade.

Hey, my phone is Sprint, too. My phone was getting the FRP lock after a few reboots. I have done several mods like TWRP, root by the latest Magisk, deodex, edge panels, csc tweaks...etc. The FRP lock debacle was on the newest Sprint build wich is DQF1. I downgraded to DQE1 and I noticed that OEM unlock was disabled. I guess that was the problem. In over 9 months of owning this unlocked phone, I didn't touch the OEM unlock. (I'm on a GSM Network)
BTW, OEM Unlock is located in Depeloper Options, to enable it you must enable developer options by going into the menu, search the build number and tap it several times.

Thank you, based on what you guys saying, I understand that Samsung won't let you downgrade. I able to boot up 7.0 Nougat firmware to the phone (DQE1), and (DQC5). However, I keep getting bootloop after using Odin to flash the phone, and FRP lock is still on. Is there any tickmarks on ODIN that I have to check such as "Nand erase", "Auto reboot", "Flash lock", "F-reset time" or anything in the tickmarks? Then, I couldn't access to the recovery mode (vol up + home + power ) after odin sucessful flashed my phone. Is it because I got stuck in a bootloop and I cannot turn off my phone? I tried to took the battery off so the phone can be turn off, then when I tried to go to recovery mode, it's a bootloop again...Please help, I'll try different ways in order to get the phone to work again. Thank you.

You dont need to take out the battery. In note 5 you can power off the device by pressing Power button + Volume down button at the same time.
Do a factory reset using recovery.

Thank you. You made it sound so easy. I able to turn off the phone, but I still cannot access to the recovery mode. Is it vol up + power button + home for recovery? That's what I do after flash the phone, turn it off, and still a boot loop. FRP still on if I go back to download mode. Are you sure my tickmarks on ODIN is right? Heres a link for the pic: ibb.co/fHwwVF

You dont need nand erase. Anyways seems like it wasnt the issue.
Power off device (Power + Volume Down)
Recovery (Power + Volume Up + Home)
Factory Reset.
Maybe try to flash again with only Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time TICKED.

I tried multiple attempts but it doesn't work. Bootloop even though I tried to put into recovery mode. Nothing happend. Is it because of FRP lock? Or do I have to switch the rom or anything in the phone?

Did you try flashing stock rom again? Tick only Auto Reboot and F. Reset time in Odin.
And keep in mind one thing. The first boot takes about 4-5 minutes.
Try flashing stock rom again if its still in bootloop then try going in recovery mode and do a factory reset.
If it still doesnt work then maybe I can help you through skype video.
Yea, I tried stock rom Nougat 7.0 for my N920P. Matter of fact, I tried to use other 7.0 firmware for the device but still the same. I can't downgrade like you mention. I continue to get bootloop, and I still cannot access to recovery mode no matter how I tried. It would be wonderful If you can do skype video.
