it's an sgh-i537
I'm not experienced in this sort of stuff, but I think my phone is considered "soft bricked"
I can boot it into recovery mode/download mode, but when I go into download mode, odin wont recognize it.
on top of that, when/if I am able to get it to recognize my phone, to my understanding I need to know what MF# I'm running- and I have absolutely no clue what that is. A bit of reading leads me to believe it means Manifest or something like that, but I still have no clue what one I have.
please help an idiot.

What you're referring to as MF# is actually the last three characters in the firmware build number, which we use to differentiate between different firmware builds. To fix your phone, you have to use Odin v3.09 to restore a stock firmware. Download this file and extract all 4 files within. You have to use all 4 files in Odin, it'll look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(I know the picture has Odin v3.07 but I've always had success with 3.09). The process will take some time, you must be patient and let it do its thing. When you do this, your phone will automatically reboot on its own a couple times, and one of those times will be to the stock android recovery. This is completely normal. I say this because I've seen so many people freak out when their phone starts doing stuff on its own. Just let Odin go, it knows what it's doing.
I finally got odin to recognize my phone, and I used files you linked to and the top left box turned red and said "Fail!"

Check your usb cable and flash kitkat 4.4.2 Odin files if is failing take your phone to best buy and flash lollipop
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I537 using XDA Free mobile app
I believe It was 4.2.2 Jellybean. (with AT&T)
I tried to update it to lollipop when this started.
I'm still looking into the whole PIT thing, and even found a download for a PIT file for the i537 but haven't done anything with it yet because stuff I've read say thats more for the development stuff and could really mess up your phone.

You are flashing the wrong Odin file. You need to flash the files that @thisisapoorusernamechoice linked to. You should be flashing all 4 files at once otherwise you're going to end up with a phone that doesn't work properly.

I have been flashing with all 4. on various different Odin versions with different firmware versions.

As was mentioned before, it looks like you're flashing the wrong files. You've flashed ML2 firmware which is why it fails to flash all 4 files. You need to be flashing all 4 NE3 files.
alright, a little headway... I tried all 4 files on odin 3.10 and got further...

I tried them, with odin 3.04, 3.06, 3.07, 3.09 and 3.10 and it kept failing right away.
also now the other files aren't getting as far as they did before.
also minor development- for the first time, when I tried to go into download mode, it popped up the "Firmware upgrade encounter an issue. please select recovery mode in kies and try again" screen.
aaaand now even the files that looked like they might work aren't doing ****.

You're flashing the wrong files. The only way you're going to get this to work is if you flash the NE3 files. You have to make them work. Try downloading it again and check the MD5 to make sure you didn't get a corrupted download.
alright, just put it to rest, I am using the files I was linked to, I did check the md5.

I'm wondering if I should try harder using Kies? I can't get kies to connect to my phone (it just hangs on the connecting screen), and when I try to manually input my phone (where you put in the model and S/N), it gives me the message saying that my phone can't be verified.
update to this:
after leaving the phone alone for a week, I decided to give it another go and was somewhat successful I think. This is what happened.

now instead of automatically booting to the "connect to keis" screen, it goes to the Samsung S4 active screen and just hangs there.
I can still enter download mode.
Doesn't seem like I can ever recovery mode though. any thoughts on how to progress?
Thanks.
Hi! I have the S6 Edge AT&T. I currently have it on the latest firmware 5.1.1 and when I try to flash the stock rom/firmware I always get an error message. Why is that?

Can't downgrade bro you're stuck on 5.1.1 I'm afraid
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G925A using Tapatalk
Once you're on 5.1.1 you can not downgrade. Sucks, we'll be stuck on it for a while. I upgraded for Samsung Pay and sacrificed my root.
What if it did not finishing installing all the way. can you down grade then
nope. bootloader is the first thing flashed. that is whats keeping you from downgrading. Your stuck. Just like us.
updates?
Any updates? :/
Tried to flash with a wrong .tar file im pretty sure. Now the phone will not get past the message telling me to restore it with smart switch. (from what i can tell smart switch doesnt currently work with the att version of this s6).
tried using these files:
AP_G920AUCU1AOE2_CL4823236_QB4834510_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
BL_G920AUCU1AOE2_CL4823236_QB4834510_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CP_G920AUCU1AOE2_CL4823236_QB4834510_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CSC_ATT_G920AATT1AOE2_CL4823236_QB4834510_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
ODin v3.10.7 gives me this:

That's the wrong file to flash to that phone.
I suggest you try the OI5 part of this guide, first since she wants the update.

It gets stuck right here, which is normal but it's been here for an hour. should i try a different file?
I'd say start over, but this time do not flash the BL file. Do the AP, CP, and CSC files only.
I tried to downgrade from 6.0.1 to 5.1.1 but my phone never booted up. I'm trying to return to 6.0.1 but I receive the error: "SW REV. Check Fail. Device: 4, Binary: 3" and this is the log for ODIN:

I'm using the restore files from the following post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att.../g925aucs4cpf1-odin-firmware-restore-t3408875
What is going on with my phone? If I check just the AP option then the phone never ends up booting but if I check BL, AP, CP, and CSC then I receive the above error. The ODIN version is 3.10.7
