Hi everyone,
Have tried to find a solution by reading posts but have not had any luck, Just got my Gtab 2 days ago and have not had a chance to do much with it. Today I went to turn it on got past the viewsonic splash screen and then it freezes at the t&T ui screen, just sits there. Is there anyway to reset or recover from this point? have to hold the power button 6 sec to turn it off and when rebooting goes to the same spot again and freezes. Any help would be greatly appreciated as am a total noob when it comes to this stuff. Thanks for any advice

Hi all, 1st off, this forum is amazing. Please provide your input.
My device: HTC HD2 from Tmobile STOCK, out of the box, no mod has been done.
Problem: frozen at "stick together" screen for unknown time
Situation: the phone was used for 2-3 weeks, then sat in the box for approx 6 month.
Attempts: during all my attempts i didn't have the SIM CARD installed.
1/i tired to do factory reset, the 1234 then pressed yes -> frozen at sticktogether screen. took out the battery. then
2/Called Tmobile help support, we did hard reset by holding the volup and voldown plus power button, after I got to the animated screen.....stuck at "stick together"
3/Tmobile tech told me to take out the battery again, take out the micro sd card, and start the phone normally ....guess what ? stuck at stick together screen !!!! at this point, i was like **** should have not given away my iphone4
4/ while being stuck, the tech guy told me to use a pinpoint pen to activate the little yellow button next to microsd card, the device kinda turn off, then again ...stick together appeared. I thought to myself, i should have stuck with my Iphone4.
turning point: So, anyway, took out the battery, then turn on the phone normally, of course stuck at stick together...then let it sit for about > 3 hrs while watching "RED" from redbox...haha i came back, the phone logged in , kinda like the fresh start from out-of-the-box setting. I went through the initial tutorial, and all that good stuff. Seem to be functional. I turned the phone off, then do the vol down, and power button to check SPL version, mine is 2.4.1000000 or sumthing like. then it stuck at the tri color screen. took out the battery, then started the phone ...GUESS what ? stuck at stick together again.....I feel miserable.
I have two option,
1/ is to send the device back to tmobile and have them replace it.
2/ writing this thread and hopefully someone knows what's going on !!!
Forgive my if I'm posting this in the wrong section. I have looked at the board and have found some issues similar to mine but not exactly....
I rooted my Samsung Galaxy over a year ago through a one click PC app. About two months ago whenever I tried turning on my phone it would get just past the password screen but as it was "scanning internal memory" it vibrated four times and the screen went black (the four lights at the bottom stayed on). Then it restarts itself and does the same thing over and over and over again.
I had tried rebooting it, taking the battery out, safe mode, etc. Nothing worked. I just kept turning it on and off and after doing this for about 24 hours straight it finally came on and it was fine UNTIL yesterday. I have tried for hours turning it on and off like last time but its not helping. Can someone please advise me on what to do? I have some very important medical information regarding my little girl.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
My phone suddenly went into a bootloop one day a couple of weeks back. The Samsung logo would come on for a couple of seconds and then disappear. Then I tried to plug the phone in via USB and then it gave me a weird loop where the battery icon would appear with a loading sign and then disappear.
I searched a lot of threads and some of them pointed towards a solution via a USB Jig. I ordered one and plugged it in following instructions.
On the screen, I could see the downloading sign with "Do Not Turn Off Target" under it. But this screen would also just flash for a couple of seconds and then go on a loop.
Any advice will be much appreciated! It's kind of a desperate situation because the phone is no longer under warranty.
Thank you!
I made a video because the problem is kind of hard to visualize.
i´m not sure, but it looks like a hardware problem.
A kind of instability or something.

Hello,
I have a problem with my tablet, I have looked and tried for several days and have not been able to get any real results.
To start with, my tab originally was running really slow. I thought I may have a virus, so I did a factory data reset. Once it tried rebooting, a warning come up that there was a missing file, I didn't have time to write it down. Anyway, it started to reboot, the boot screen comes up "Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1" but that's as far as it gets. That's all it would do till it drains the battery down, can't even turn it off. I pressed the power and volume key to get into the selection screen to boot or download. I have tried several times to reload the recovery.tar.md5 through Odin3, it says everything works fine, doing this finally allows the battery to show up on the screen while it's charging. Now when I boot it it gets past the former screen and does the video sequence that ends with the SAMSUNG in the center of the screen and hangs there. It finally restarts and hangs on the first screen again. I have looked and looked, and can't seem to find what I need. I really need some guidance, please understand I need some help!
Thanks!
Well, after several more attempts I got it to completely boot up! left it on for a few minutes, got it all setup and onto the home screen. This was late last night, so I decided to shut it down (power off) and plug it in. Got up this morning and it is doing it again! Anyone have any thoughts? Could this be a problem with the processor or any other hardware parts?
Not really sure what's going on with your tab, but you can try to flash the full stock ROM from Odin. You can get it from www.sammobile.com.

I appreciate the suggestion, I already went to Samsung and got everything I could from there - updated drivers, But I did not see the ROM. I will take a look tonight when I get back home. Thanks for taking your time to reply!
I went to Samsung people in Best Buy, he pointed me to the Samsung Kies. He seemed to think it was hardware also. How would I tell if it is either? I am leaning towards hardware, because it did let me get in and set-up my accounts etc... then I powered off & the problem has reared it's ugly head when I tried to power it back on.
So I had my Galaxy S5 from T-Mobile for a couple of months and it has been working great, especially after the recent Marshmallow update. But as of late, my phone would crash and keep restarting until it starts up normally again. Over time, it would get progressively worse and it would take longer to boot up over the course of a couple of days, and when it does finally manage to boot up and work, pressing the power button would crash the phone and throw it back into a boot loop. I left the phone alone for a couple of days and came back to it to try to boot it up again, and it worked well! It booted up first try without any kind of restarts and the power button worked a couple of times until... it failed again when I pressed the power button and it got stuck in a boot loop again. And after a couple of minutes of being stuck in a boot loop, it would boot, but the screen was black. The LED at the top of the phone and the lights from the capacitive buttons would work and I know the phone is working it's just that the screen is not. I can manage to turn off the phone without the screen by holding the power button and guessing where the "Power Off" button is. And while the phone is in this state, when I press the power button the phone would lock like it's supposed to. I've tried taking out the battery and holding the power button for 2 minutes and letting the phone rest for another 10 minutes but it doesn't seem to really do anything. I've tried rooting it before but failed to, but I don't really think that's the problem. If you guys have any suggestions I would really appreciate it! Using my old Galaxy S3 is kinda annoying, especially since Pokemon Go doesn't support it. Thanks again!
If you guys would like a video of some sort to see what's going on exactly then I'll be glad to make one for you guys.
Did the problem start after you tried to root? What did you use to try and root your phone? What baseband are you on? Do you have stock or a custom recovery?
From past experience, symptoms indicate a stuck power buton. FWIW.
