Yup, it's known issue. go to supersu setting (scroll to bottom) enable pro. turn airplane mode on. restart flashfire, try again. If you restart flashfire a few times and it's still not working try a system restart.

I was able to "fix" this (and thanks to the person who mentioned this to me)

Obviously u wanna make a back up of anything in you're SD insert it in the adaptor you get when buying an SD connect to the PC and format it

Personally i unchecked fast format because I felt it be best to do it right rather then quickly

After add back what you had in the SD and pop the sucker right in

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] hazmad:
If you're stuck at the boot animation for longer than 10 mins, you can reboot by holding power + volume down for about 15 seconds. You might need to reboot again if it then goes into upload mode.

Root Seems Stable

OK. I did the procedure 5 times and I think I did it the same every time as far as I know few exceptions. One time was my fault because in Part 2, I wiped after flashing. That was pretty stupid, or I was just tired. Anyway, after the first couple times I had the phone freeze up and just not respond at all. Only the home button would respond with vibration. So had to hard reset.

Third time I tried using the Verizon latest system image in the Part 2 flash instead of [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] system image. That did not work at all for me. The phone was just dead, no response and had to start over.

Fourth time I wiped after flashing. My bad.

Fifth and final time I did all the same stuff, except used the OP image file, and I feel like I am getting to know ODIN and better at typing ADB commands even though I don't know what they mean. The last time, the difference was that I factory reset the phone after the ODIN flash, then I factory reset it twice and cleared the cache after the Part 2 Flashfire flash. So far it is running great and no freezing. No yellow screen yet, etc.

I did have a lot of trouble on the last time getting SuperSU to play right. Had to reboot several times. I was getting worried, but kept screwing around until it worked. I will also note that the last time I did the procedure was the only time that SuperSU did not say anything about Knox. The first two times, even using the OP files it asked me do disable Knox, which I did.

Bottom line is as they have been saying, follow the instructions. And maybe throw in a few factory resets where you can. I don't think they hurt. And try not to do it when you are too tired, although I know the Devs wore themselves out getting this done for us. Thanks.

Did you do anything with odin or flashfire before this happened?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jawonder:
Yeah, i was on your latest AT&T firmware and flashed Xposed with Flashfire . It reboots and and got stuck on the AT&T screen . It work fine on the firmware i was on yesterday so i took the chance again .

Looks like Odin is gonna be my friend in starting all over .
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] sabresfan:
Try holding power down bixby and power in upload mode and see if you can get to Odin mode. It should hopefully give you the option to reboot again.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] eelsid:
You can try Kernel Adiutor. Also good but I prefer the UI in EXKM.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] hazmad:
It's got to be that (unofficial) Xposed. The only way I know how to fix a soft brick in our case is to flash the SamPWND firmware from step 1. You should only have to flash AP though. If you took a system partition backup with flashfire, step 2 should be a lot faster.

You can try re-flashing the other SamPWND firmware files in odin before you do AP, but I suspect Xposed froze your system up.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] jawonder:
I didn't do a backup in Flashfire, so i guess step two is included .

Those TWRP mentioned for snapdragon or custom kernels was for Chinese/ HK G950/ G9550 . Those devices have unlocked bootloader that means, you can flash custom binary like TWRP(which will trigger knox) and also custom roms. Those TWRP are not for us G950U/G955U US variants.
