Hi guys,
first ill try to explain how I got where I am right now.
Sometimes my Phone gets so low in power it just shuts down, after plugging in the power it will show a charge icon for a few seconds and it will automatically try to boot again, once finally booted it shuts down again due to the lack of power.
What I normally do to fix this is go into recovery or download mode because this uses far less power and so I can charge it to like 5 or 10 percent and boot normally.
This time after charging it to 5 or 10 percent it wont boot at all and it's looping. I allready reinstalled my current Rom (Omega V29) but still no normal boot. After a full whipe and installing V30 I still cannot get beyond the boot animation.
what I tried:
- Reinstalling the same Rom I'm using for months.
- Full Whipe
- Install V30 ROM
- removing Sim and SD card
- Now trying to go back to stock using Odin.. also not working..
Is there anyone out there who has any ideas left for me to try? :'(
thanks in advance!
one more thing! If I get this phone running again I would be very happy if someone could show me a method to disable the autoboot. I remember my previous phones could just charge without automatically trying to boot the device.
>> I found out that after installing the ND3 bootloader it will not autoboot, so that's one step in the right [email protected]
One important information missing:
What's your current firmware, especially bootloader.
Then: what firmware have you tried to flash thru Odin?
What recovery/version do you work with?
current firmware:
Omega v29 (27/05/2014):
Based on firmware XXUFNE1 Android 4.4.2 (Date: 06/05/2014)
current bootloader:
MJ5
Firmware I tried flashing to solve the problem:
Omega v30 (19/09/2014) Based on firmware XXUFNG4 Android 4.4.2 (Date: 30/07/2014) USING RECOVERY
DN3_v5.5_N7100_2nd_september.zip USING ODIN
Latest stock rom USING ODIN
bootloader I tried flashing to solve the problem:
N7100_KK_ND3_BL.tar.md5
Recovery I'm using:
TWRP latest
Recovery I tried:
CWM latest
also the error "E: Unable to mount '/efs' " displays when i try to factory reset using TWRP
I found out that somehow my efs was corrupt. Unfortunately I did not have a backup.
I did however found a working efs backup on the internet which I flashed using Odin. Now the Phone boots and I have a IMEI number that is not correct. So last step is to fix the IMEI number and I should be back in business.
Hi guys,
I have the t-mobile s6 edge
After messing around with my device last night and this morning, I decided to go back to stock for a bit.
I have ODIN 3.10.6. I went into download mode on my phone. extracted the stock firmware from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841
loaded the "G925TUVU1AOCG_G925TTMB1AOCG_G925TUVU1AOCG_HOME.tar.md5" file into the ap box for odin
connected my phone to computer, odin recognized it. hit start. ran successfully. rebooted, android guy came up briefly and said installing system update, then it changed to "Erasing..." then it rebooted again
now it's just bootloops forever after the tmobile screen. I can boot to recovery and it says installing system update each time I boot to recovery, but selecting reboot system there shows a no command error. force the phone to power off... power on again to bootloops.
tried to go into download mode again and reflash everything through odin, same issue!
I started last night by rooting using chainfire, then installing TWRPv2, then I flashed the 5.1.1 ROM available from @eousphoros (sorry for the tag, just thought you might want to be apprised of the issues in getting back to stock after using the 5.1.1 ROM).
with 5.1.1 loaded, smart switch didn't recognize the phone for a reset so I decided to go with the ODIN method and now i'm in bootloop city
any help would be greatly appreciated

You probably need to do a factory reset
In the future you should make a full backup before installing a rom

AHH!! Sorry to have made this post... here's what I did to get it actually boot:
reflahed the stock firmware through odin again, tried to reboot, it failed, obviously. rebooted to recovery, factory reset in recovery, power down option in recovery, then turned the phone on again and it magically worked!
hopefully this post will help someone who encountered the same issue

I had the same excat same thing happen when flashing this via Odin. I didnt need to Odin stock twice though . I just booted stock recovery and did a factory reset. After that I went ahead an powered down and rebooted . All good now
How long did you have to wait in the stock recovery to get past the "installing system update" screen? Mine just sits there and I'm unable to view other options in recovery.
EDIT for noobs (like me): wait 30 seconds on the "installing system update" screen.
I'm still stuck in boot loop
Im in the same exact situation , but I'm still stuck in boot loop. I followed your restore instructions and nothing. Please help.

Pp.
I initially used odin to flash OI1 update, after a rom I was using caused problems and I got bootloop. It changed bootloader value to b:3 and I'm unable to downgrade now so I used smart switch which didn't recognize device so used emergency recovery and still bootloop. I have factory reset and wipe cache multiple times along with adb side load and individual flashes of bootloader, modem, kernel, flashed custom kernel and twrp to access fix permissions and to mount partitions with advanced wipe etc and still wont boot past logo. Also during one fix attempt phone said can't mount system.. Idk I'm not understanding where the problem is .everything says successful but I'm still in bootloop. Please help. I've spent hours everyday for the past week searching & trying different things that seem might help so open to any suggestions.

Hi everyone
I'm new to the whole ROM flashing and using Odin. I had a bootloop problem and recovery mode showed all the options but has a green android man laying down with red icon above him and No Command below the android man. Tried the factory wipe and cache wipe but it gives some red writing with the word failed in the coding and the word error under the android man. Tried to flash a stock ROM from sammobile using Odin. Odin gives a pass but the same problems persist. Can someone please help?

hello
i need downgred g925t frome androide 7 to 6 or 5.1.1
can anyone help me
im flashed phone whit dis frimwer from anroide 7 G925TUVS6FRC1_G925TTMB6FRC1_TMB
im dawnloaded this frimwer 4Files-G925TTMB3EPD1-6.0.1-By-NoLoGiG but not work or not flashed have error
I had TWRP 2870
i was running cm 11 cough made
everything was fine for a few days then realized that i could only receive text messages and my lte was always dropping out. So I verified my APN setting with my wife's i317 and made all adjustments as needed but no help. so i just got fed up with it all and reinstalled from a backup that i made of stock 4.4.2 everything worked then last night my phone received an OTA from AT&T but because I had TWRP it would not install. I am assuming that it was the stage freight update so (all the trouble began) I used a back to stock recovery using a back to stock sticky that i found and it worked it took me all the way back to stock recovery and 4.1.2 I think and then after installing all necessary updates I went to about device and check for updates and it downloaded a update I don't remember the file size but under 500 megs. then it restarted and installed it then rebooted and it would not go past the samsung logo I have tried everything but a pit file or something like that the only thing i have access to is download mode. when I tried going back to stock 4.4.2 using odin3 v.1.85 and flashed I317-UCUCNE5-Stock.tar odin says all is good and I get very happy but the stupid phone wont boot it gets stuck at the same samgung logo for 30mins. help me. please! Im stuck using the captivate untill i get this fixed.
And you cannot boot into recovery using the 3 button combo ??
If yes ....wipe data...factory reset the device...and wipe the cache as well...g
Edit:
The Update will put the device to UCUCNJ1 official and will lock you into the Knox bootloader as well.
The only 4.1.2 reverts from this point forward cannot contain the bootloader image or softbrick will occur....g
Hello,
i have a note 8 with 64gb memory and originally wanted to run it with the ligthrom v50. I installed twrp and the rom, unfortunately celluar network didn't work after that. So i decided to go back to the stock rom.
I downloaded the latest fw via samfirm and wanted to flash it via odin. This worked too, but the phone only showed 16Gb memory, so I read that a wipe/factory reset would solve the problem. Unfortunately without success. When I reset the phone, it is always stuck in boot mode. If I then go to recovery I always see "dm-verity verification failed".
I tried to fix this error with flashing e.g. according to this instruction, but unfortunately without success.
i tried other tutorials, but nothing helped. as soon as i do a wipe/factory reset the phone won't work anymore...
Is my cell phone really gone now?
A few months back I succesfully rooted my a32 4g with no problems, however recently I have decided to go back to stock firmware. After several failed attempts to do so I finally managed to do it, but I only made a backup using the smart switch app for PC. Now my phone is acting very weirdly and I haven't found a way to fix it. It doesn't detect my sim card (which I think is because of the lack of the efs folder). It keeps closing all my apps, Restarts my phone all the time, and also gets stuck in boot loops which can only be fixed with a factory reset. Please help.
You must flash stock firmwere with odin.

I have already flashed it several times and nothing changes
Last update (november) is a non rollback one. You must search for firmware from november in sammobile and flash it, if you updated the phone
