what you are descibing sounds like a boot loop. do you have a lte tab or wifi?

Boot Loop override
What you need to do is wipe everything and start with a clean slate, then re-install the rom you want and nothing else. The reason why this happens or what I can assume (from personal experiences) is that a .zip file is corrupt and thus conflicting with your device. Major culprits of this is CPU overclocks and other tweaks of that nature.
After you reinstall your rom what you should do is then install the add-ons one at a time after each one rebooting and making sure your system loads fine, this is great for also singling out the troubled .zip file.

[q] can someone help please

I just brought a Samsung Galaxy tab10.1 GT-97510 16gb. And I have rooted the tablet but when trying to change to a custom rom the tablet just stays on the Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1 screen. I've tried like 3 roms and It's all the same can someone please help and tell me what I'm doing wrong thanks
Have you setup Clock Work Mod Recovery and took backup before trying this?
If not, Now flash to samsung's official stock ROM using odin flasher(sorry i lost that how-to guide in my bookmarks or may be deleted by mistake) see if it works, later setup CWM recovery, take backups and start playing with custom ROMs again.
Good luck

Yes I did I'm using CMW 5027 I've made a back up as well. did a full wipe I do have a problem when trying to wipe dalvik cache when I try to wipe it it says E: unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]
The /sd-ext error is normal, I think it's checking if the device has an external SD card and of course the tab does not. Which ROMs have you tried flashing? Have you tried leaving it for a long time to see if it boots up? I have heard that it can take up to 15 minutes on the first bootup.

Wait at least a half-hour for the first boot. It can take a very long time. Plug it in and walk away for a while.

I've also tired that as well I let it sit over night and It's still there. Roms like the BinDroid and Galaxy task boots up without say complete once I go to install the rom it loads the start of the work process then reboots
Does the tab boot if you restore the backup you made?
Yes the backup boots with no problem
I'd unroot and flash the stock recovery (i.e. put the tablet in the state it was when it came from the factory) then redo the rooting/CWR with ODIN. I'm guessing something went wrong when you flashed the CW recovery.
Have you encrypted your tab?
No how do I do that
Have you tried my method? So far so good it's gotten a good amount of people back to the recovery.

previously rooted phone won't load past splash screen

I've had the phone for around 6 months, rooted it back in Feb or something.
Started having problems freezing and restarting a few weeks ago, has probably only done this only a handful of times, until this morning...
Phone locked up and restarted then started loading the splash screen directly after the samsung galaxy sII screen and got stuck in an infinite cycle. It doesn't vibrate when turned on and no buttons work the only means of turning it off when in the loop is pulling the battery.
I've searched this topic but all I can find are ppl that have un-rooted phones or ppl that just rooted their phones. I can get into recovery mode but don't know what to do after that... help!

I honestly don't know, I saw the update awhile back and wasn't on wifi so I didn't update it. Then heard on the offroad forum that I frequent that some were having problems with the update so I never actively seeked it out to install it and never saw it pop up again but I do update often so it automatically updates then most likely. I'm pretty savvy with electronics but don't really know any of the lingo yall use in these forums so please go light on it lol

I thought I listed all the info needed, what else are you looking for? It's a Galaxy SII, when I get to recovery mode at the top of the screen is: CWMR Touch v5.5.0.4 other than that I'll need more specifics as to what info you need.

go into CWM, wipe cache and dalvik cache(under advanced) and fix permissions, also under andvanced i believe.
If that doesnt help, might have to wipe data.

The only thing left to try would be to use factory reset in cwm. If that doesnt work then youll have to flash new firmware

I would suggest you try flashing stock UCKH7 to see if that will clear the boot loop. To do that, follow the guide in my signature. If you want to try straight stock, use the guide to return the phone to the store. If you want to try stock plus root, use the guide about flashing custom binaries. The download link for the firmware you need is contained within the guides. After you flash, see if the phone boots. If it still loops, enter 3e recovery and do a wipe data/factory reset. If it still loops, or not, let us know the results. Doing the above will be safe since the firmwares contain no bootloaders, and also are free of the eMMC superbrick bug.

Get into download mode and flash the stock UCKH7. If it still persists then your phone is screwed

[Q] GT P7500: Is it bricked or something?

Okay here`s the situation.
My GT-P7500 a.k.a p4 is having a problem. Whenever I boot up, it will freeze at the boot animation, and power off if not charging and go to the charging screen if is plugged. I was using SlimBean when I had the problem, flashed AOKP and still the same. Next, when I get to recovery, wiping data takes a looooooooooooong time and never finished (Seriously 3 hours and nothing). Wiping cache`s fine. Tried using TWRP but then I`m stuck on the TWRP Boot screen. I reverted back to CWM but still the same. Is it bricked or something? Is there any solution? I`m hoping for an answer ASAP. Thank you...

had the same issue on my p4wifi...it is a corrupted file.
1) you can odin a rom..this will wipe the data completely
or
2) try to flash the last rom you were successfully on..then wipe the sdcardthis will wipe the data completelyand cache..dalvik. Then try to boot it up.
If second option doesnt work( because of the dirty flash ). Then i would either use odin or push a rom to the device and do a clean install.
Just had a brain storm..you could use twrp file manager to delete files you dont need. Might get lucky and its something you downloaded recently. ( wasnt a twrp recovery when this happened to me )

So you cant use twrp's internal file manager...or are you saying you did and that process didnt work. Just wondering..the odin should definitely work. Just sucks to loose all your files..

The question is only one part of the answer grasshopper...How you ask( google ) it, is the rest..Lmao
Here's a Link to sammobile. Just scroll down and pjt in your device in the search box on the right and pich the right firmware. You will need to make a free account with them to download.

Just for future reference..when you install a stock rom, like those from sammobile. It is usually needed to wipe data factory reset to get it to boot.

[Q] Bricked My Phone

Hey everyone and thanks for your help.
I deleted what seemed to me to be some worthless apps from my galaxy pocket neo using an app and now my phone is stuck on the boot screen. I have tried factory resetting my phone and after rebooting my phone will go through the original setup process, but ultimately after going through all the menus my phone becomes unresponsive. I am thinking that I need a new os.
I have seen the other help thread "stuck on boot logo" and I tried to understand the directions giving there, but have so far been unable to resolve anything. If I could get some clear instructions as to what might fix my phone I'd appreciate it.

Go here
Flash Samsung stock ROM for your phone and baseband using Odin. It should be back to normal. It will be back to unrooted factory state.
Alternatively, if your cwm is still working, just flash a ROM zip after wiping data, cache, advamced->dalvik cache.
Do mounts and storage-> mount system->format system in CWM before flashing ROM if above 2 methods do not work (though I'm very sure one of them would work)
---------- Post added at 12:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 AM ----------
Make sure that you flash the ROM of Samsung s5312 and not the one mentioned in the Odin guide. Search for it .
I can't seem to find a site that will let me download the stock rom. All of the rom sites bring me to uploaded.net and I dead end there... Is there something I am missing on that website?
Thanks!
problem app system
May be you remove any important system app so i think you should install stockrom by odin or install custom rom ) there are many nice rom such as: cm11 , cm10.1
Same Problem

Ah i see. My apologies, I managed to fix it but it took a while. I had to download the official firmware from sammobile and flash it through odin. When i did that again i was stuck on the boot animation, but what i did was to go into my recovery and wipe cache, dalvik and also user data just to make certain and voila! phone works fine now.
I'm so sorry about your situation man, maybe you can try what i tried if you still got your phone. Its good as a spare!
Well done Sir!
I already spent a full work day on the sucker >.> I am just bitter and can't be bothered. Haha. Glad you were successful though!

Need some help with rooting.

So I have a Galaxy S7 Edge and I have been wanting to root for a while now. I've tried to a few times but it's always put me in the bootloop and/or won't boot at all. So I just manually factory reset my phone. (im on my 7th factory reset over the past few days)
The problem is that whenever I go into the TWRP recovery mode, my internal storage and everything else is at 0mb and I get the error that I cannot mount the storage. I've tried changing the file types to ext4 and ext2, but to no avail. I have also read that if you enable pin on start-up then it would work, but that didn't work either. I'm really stuck here and I'm starting to get a little annoyed, as you would.
I'd appreciate any help I can get. I'll provide you guys with any other relevant information. I just want to root my android.
(the first time I tried to root I used a S7 twrp file and it corrupt my system and that's when I first had to factory reset)
EDIT: I am trying to root using Magisk, just in case you guys ask. G935F.
Now whenever I use TWRP (latest one for hero2lte), it just goes into the bootloop. I'm really stuck here.
