Is my Galaxy S9+ now a paperweight?

Cool :slight_smile: the blank Odin mode screen is not a blocker, I have seen it myself when Odin is “forced” by a bootloop.

I think this is a likely guess.

You should have a very good chance of proceeding as described by @prkfsz.

Please take your time to do some reading:

and here is an Odin tutorial.

I am very confident that you can recover the phone. (On the negative side I am not sure if you will have the difficulties found by USA users due to their carriers using exclusively VoLTE – a little more fully described in my first link.)

In choosing a stock ROM first you will want a Canada ROM, a little research will be necessary !! :slight_smile:

You will want Android 10, that is Q. You will want the latest “Software revision” (SW REV) available, but not the very latest Security patch level (SPL) – an October or November 2022 release date would be fine. (I will omit further detail, please ask again when you did some research yourself.)

Good luck.
