galaxy s6 g920f wont boot


hi, i hope someone can help me here. I have a g920f that just sits on the samsung logo. prior to this not booting problem i did the hack for stopping the disabled by EE problem. That seemed to go ok. disabled by EE went away.

then the phone said it had an update so i allowed it and update went ahead, then bang. non booting phone.

I have tried a lot of different firmwares and non have fixed the problem. I have done factory resets cleared cache but nothing has worked. I can still get into download mode so i believe it can be fixed. but i just do not know what else to try. i even tried deleting the OS (custom recovery) and re installing it but again that didn't work.
So i do not know what else to try.

any help would be greatfully appreciated

After full flash to 5.1.1 flash with cf auto root file if its not help so flash custom kernel it will boot your phone and after boot don't forget to repiar DRK (Device root key) because your phone's DRK was damaged it will preventing your phone to boot

It was not necessary to repair drk if your drk failed so when you flash the stock firmware you have bootloop after root it was booted
but
after drk repair it will booted without root or custom kernel

i have managed to get rid of drk error by deleting cache file from firmware. the phone will not boot again though if the phone is factory reset.
i have also ordered a gcpro dongle which will be here tuesday so i will try that as well as suggested by shahsoft.
