Android Central Question

Recently, I rooted my S7 Edge, after upgrading to an S10. After playing around with some ROMS (BlackDiamond to be precise), and some root hacks, I eventually wanted to go back to stock. So I rushed over to my file drive, where I had saved the backup of the stock firmware from SamMobile. I opened up ODIN, selected the files, and hit start. After about 5 minuets, my phone rebooted, went to the erasing screen, then went to the updating screen. At about 35%, the phone froze, rebooted, and gave me the update screen, followed by the "No Command" screen. It then reboots, and does the same thing over and over again. I re-installed TWRP and intstalled a custom ROM, and that works perfectly fine. I would like to get my phone back to stock though. Anyone know what could be happening.
 
Yes, I can install and boot into TWRP while in the stock firmware.
You can try downloading stock firmware from another source like XDA Forums , see if you have luck with it , otherwise something had got damaged and probably have to stay with a custom recovery like TWRP with stock firmware.

I've tried looking for a .zip of the stock firmware. I'm trying to flash it on a newer computer with another cable now and will see if that helps (Probably wont)

Yeah I have same feeling, worth a shot , I think root broke something , but if everything works stock firmware and TWRP , stick with it
 
OYA is for the S7 W8 (the Canadian version) - is that what you have? (If the ROM isn't for the variant that the phone actually is, it may not work.)
