Hi,
A few days ago my GT-N7100 started to behave weirdly. Phone was stuck in a boot loop. I tried to open recovery but it wasn't booting into recovery mode.
I flash TWRP recovery using Odin and found that the internal storage size was showing 0 MB. So I formatted the Internal storage and then repaired it using TWRP.
Then I tried to install a custom rom in it. After the installation was successful, i wiped cache and factory reset the phone but phone was still stuck in boot loop.
I turned on my phone in recovery and found out that it /data size was 0MB. So I installed a pit file using Odin to resize it. It was successful. Then I installed a Stock rom 4.4.2. Now the phone turns on and shuts down after a few moments.
I think there is not boot loader which can boot the OS (Just my understanding).
Please help.
Thanks,

So i formatted my internal storage before a fresh install, which has sent my phone into a bootloop. I've pulled my battery and manually tried to boot into twrp and the blue "TWRP" screen comes up for about 3 seconds and then i'm back to bootlooping. I have the mjb bootloader or I would odin back to stock. download mode does work, and i tried to reflash my recovery which did pass via odin, but I get the same results. Any help would be great
Today my N7100 suddenly rebooted without any warning and got stuck at initial Samsung boot logo (even sound gets into loop). I managed to enter recovery and tried to wipe cache partition. But every time I try to wipe anything or delete via twrp file manager - phone reboots
Should I try re-partitioning via Odin? What pit file do I use?

you can try to use Odin, but probably you have faulty eMMC, many similiar cases around the forums about rebooting and stuck on Samsung logo.
Probably PC won't recognise your phone and there will be nothing else to do, but to give it to service
Miracles happens! Re-partitioned and fully erased nand via Odin and managed to upload the rom! Have tried 3 time before it succeed (crashed few time on system and cache image writing). Everything seems fine so far. Won't upgrade the rom from the stock 4.1.2 for a while to keep phone working. I have the insane emmc chip by the way. Hope it won't fail again.
Hi I was wondering if someone could help me.
My dad's phone which is a S3 somehow soft bricked itself. It was on a stock rom before.
It turns on and then gets stuck on the Samsung Galaxy SIII screen.
I am able to boot into download mode as well as recovery.
I was able to flash a stock ODIN file UVUEMJC as well as the PIT file and everything went smoothly and it passed.
However, the same problem remains, it is still stuck on the Samsung Galaxy SIII screen when I boot it.
Also went into recovery and tried to wipe data, but it is unable to mount any partitions, e.g. can't mount cache, can't mount data, etc.
I was able to throw on TWRP and boot into that, and it gives me similar errors as the stock recovery. TWRP also says that my internal storage is 0 GB and I can't put any files onto the phone.
I am quite confused because if NAND was corrupted then I shouldn't I not be able to boot into recovery at all?
ADB is also working...can't push/pull anything though.
If someone could help me I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
So I flashed CWM cause I read on XDA someone said that formatting data through CWM works, now...it says there is no pit partition and there is a flash read failure whenever I try to flash a stock tar with odin w/ pit. Also tried flashing pit by itself, doesn't work.
Try installing cwm or twrp again, boot into recovery, mount sdcard0, connect to Windows machine, and try to format the partition using fat32.
Hello. I have a i317 Note 2, running on T-mobile. It is rooted and was running Blisspop 5.x rom. I had set my phone down and noticed it was on the Samsung screen. Figured it was just a random reboot; but it never booted up. I reboot into recovery (TWRP) to find that there is no OS installed. It says my internal storage is 0mb, my external storage is 0mb (I have a 32gb sd card). I cannot mount nor access external storage, or anything internal. I cannot format data. I am able to see my phone while it is in recovery on my computer. But once I put it in download mode, it can no longer be seen. ADB cannot see it in download mode, I cannot fastboot (unless I'm doing it wrong). I used Odin, which can see it in download mode, but it did not fix anything. Also, now the phone says it is unable to format to remove encryption.
Prior to this it had a problem where it would be unable to stat things. Is there any way to fix this? Or am I SOL?

You used Odin for what? Did you try flashing stock rom? Try using the rescue option in KIES. It has saved me in the past when I had messed up my device.

Sorry about that, forgot that bit! I used odin to flash the stock rom, and even tried a .pit repartition. Kies does not see the phone. At most, it sees it but will not connect. So there are no rescue options to be had.
I thought I made progress. I was able to do the firmware reset with Keis. The phone got to the blisspop launch screen but just stayed there. I rebooted into TWRP and it still said I had 0mb of internal storage, and still had no OS installed. ADB still didn't see the phone, either. Now the phone will no longer boot to samsung, or to recovery, or TWRP. If I hold the power button the proximity sensor shines for a moment but that's it.
Same problem here, same phone but t0lte that ran many ROMs over 4 trouble-free years . Still at the pre-Kies stage, thus still can access twrp. Tried overwriting twrp with philz or CWM - Odin says PASSED but reality say no dice - twrp is still the recovery. Tried flashing stock - Odin again said PASSED, but still have twrp reporting 0MB.
Spent 1day surfing xda to ensure I have correct files and procedures.
Wonder if there has been any solution found...
When flashing a new recovery, do not check auto reboot. Flash the recovery in Odin. When you see the word reset in the status window, remove the USB cable from the phone, remove the battery, replace the battery, boot into recovery. Hopefully, this method will work.
Hello,
my Samsung Galaxy S4 mini with bliss ROM stated to turn off spontaneously and sometimes it didn't start again (the Samsung logo appeared and then the phone went dead, it was impossible to enter recovery mode, download mode shut down itself immediately). After several tries, it booted normally. This happened again - and I found out it was a bad power button, which I replaced. Now it is possible to enter both recovery mode and download mode with no problems. However the main OS doesn't boot up. So I tried to do a full wipe in recovery mode and CWM recovery rebooted the phone, when it was trying to format /data partition. So I tried to flash stock firmware with ODIN. It also didn't boot up, but at least the stock recovery gave me a hint what is wrong. When I perform full wipe, I get error: "E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata"
I tried to flash the phone again, this time with a PIT file and let ODIN to reformat the partitions. However, no change. How can I fix it?
Try twrp
