SM-T525 almost bricked - only download mode working. Help! - Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble

My Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1 LTE (SM-T525 aka picassolte) is a kind of bricked -
only download mode is still working.
In short, this is what happened:
First the device crashed and went into a boot loop.
I started in recovery mode and saw that the data partition could not be mounted.
At the next start even recovery mode did not work.
Only the TWRP logo appeared, then the device shutted down.
With Odin and download mode I re-flashed TWRP,
and as this didn't help, I flashed stock ROM.
Odin each time reported successful flash,
but problems on the device persist.
I could imagine that the partitions on the internal memory
need to be reformatted, but I don't know of any way
how to do that from download mode.
Any help for getting my device working again is appreciated.
Regards,
Gene
Update:
After doing even more research on the net, I found a stock ROM based four part recovery firmware. Flashing that I got the device at least working again in normal mode. ) Let's see if now TWRP and Custom ROM can be installed again.

Galaxy Nexus Bricked

Hey guys I might have bricked my Galaxy Nexus after pulling the battery out while installing a rom. Now, my phone gets stuck on the Google logo and will only go into download mode. When putting it into fastboot mode it will go directly to recovery after several minutes. I already tried fixing the problem by installing the stock rom which didn't work because the recovery manager says it has problems and can't open parts of the memory. I also can't format the memory such as the sd card because the recovery manager says it can't open it. I also can't format it from the fast boot because I can't get to it. When I try to boot normally it gets stuck on the Google logo. I can get into Download Mode but Odin hasn't helped out. I also played around with an Omap tool which didn't help. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

[Q] TWRP Bootloop on Tab Pro 10.1 with CM12.1

Sorry alittle new to the game and my tab pro 10.1 is on CM12.1, I went to factory reset the device and now it is in a constant TWRP bootloop. Unfortunately I cannot get into download mode as it just stays on the Teamwin page rebooting. I know I need to get back to stock and start from scratch, however I'm not sure what I need to do next to reload the OS. Thanks in advance!
Download the firmware from Sammobile. Odin back to stock. Root. Add TWRP.
but I cant get the device into download or recovery mode, it just constantly reboots staying on the Teamwin splash page. Odin wont recognize the device

Bricked phone - bootloop - download mode nor recovery working

Hi everyone,
My M9 decided to die on me in the worst possible moment (traveling abroad).
-It is rooted and is S-OFF.
-Can't enter Download mode - boot-loop
-Can't enter Recovery mode - boot-loop
Only bootloader works.
The issue started a few days back when the phone app started crashing on launching. So I cleared cache and dalvik through TWRP and it got stuck in a bootloop. Thankfully I have downloaded the latest ICE rom and had it in memory so I simply flashed it. Everything seemed well until today. Suddenly, while I was on a whatsapp call it rebooted and went into a bootloop. I wanted to reflash it but I can't get into recovery nor into download mode!
Is there anything that I can do at this moment? It is still under warranty but it clearly states that the software status is modified (in bootloader).
Thank you so much for any assistance on this matter.

System UI stopped working after flashing Lineage OS 14.1

Hi,
on my Samsung Galaxy S3 mini (GT-I8190) booting into recovery mode and download mode using key kombos is not possible, so I have to use ADB-commands on my PC.
As I had forgotten to save some data, I wanted to go back to a backup I created in TWRP, but forgot to wipe the memory afterwards. This lead to a bootloop, so I couldn't go into recovery mode any more. I bought an usb-jig and reached the download mode. There I flashed the original Android Version 4.1.2 by Samsung back on using Odin.
After the first start you have do do the setup, sign in with google account etc., but I always got the message that gapps stopped working and got thrown back to the start. Sometimes the phone even rebooted suddenly. Thus I never managed to reach a state in that I could reboot into recovery mode via ADB.
My next idea was to flash LineageOS with Odin, however after booting I immediately I get the error message "System UI stopped working". I can choose to close the app or hide the message until reboot of the device. Either way the screen is black and I still can't connect with ADB.
I'm hoping you guys have an idea how to resolve this error, or give me another way to access recovery mode.
Maybe also a way to install gapps via odin would be of use.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Self-bricked Lenovo P2. Can't load or flash TWRP

My wife used a Lenovo P2a42. The phone has bootloader unlocked, she used either stock firmware or deodexed stock firmware ver. 244. A few days ago, she put a working phone in her bag, and when she took it out, all she saw was the startup logo. The phone was in this state for over an hour, it was reset by long pressing the POWER button. The phone now has a bootloop. Unable to enter Recovery, only fastboot is available. ADB is not working.
I tried to re-flash the firmware by the command line - the files upload correctly, but after the reset the phone still has a bootloop. I also uploaded the TWRP file both as recovery - everything is fine each time, but after rebooting the phone does not enter TWRP, but still has a bootloop. What's the problem? What else can I do or check? I have a full phone backup with TWRP, but cannot restart TWRP to recover my data. Maybe the partition format is incorrect or the memory is corrupted?
These problems r common in lenovo mobiles. try booting to download mode and install stock firmware using odin.
