Simple. Can't boot. /system is formatted. If I turn off the device and connect to the charger it freezes before showing the charging animation. Tried to flash and it get stuck on the boot.img, and fails. This isn't mine Tab, I can't stay long time with it, so i'm kinda desperated. The recovery is CWM, I could use USB Mass Storage, but isn't working. Any idea?
Solved. Sorry for the thread, I was really desperated. If it didn't boot, I would have to pay another tablet.
What I did? Flashed another recovery from CM9, entered recovery, wiped data, system, rebooted to download mode and flashed sucessfuly the XWLB1. Hope it can help anyone.

So my friend's phone died during a software update which completely messed up his phone. I thought it would be a simple fix, no problem, but there is hardly any valid information out there that can help me (due to a lot of dead links). Here's the issue:
The phone (SPH-M950 btw) loads the initial "Samsung" image on the screen. Then it goes away and starts to boot up with a blank screen. My computer recognizes the device until a couple seconds late the phone restarts itself and continues this boot loop. I cant boot into the stock Android Recovery but I can boot into Download Mode. I've tried for hours to flash all kinds of ROMS with Oden but, despite the fact that Oden says everything worked, it still continues the boot loop.
If possible I would like to get the OS to work again without losing any data. If not then I would at least like to get the phone to return to it's OOB state so it's at least functional.
Help please?

Did you try to access the recovery mode after you flashed anything?
Try it and check whether it works. Then try to format /system /data and /cache (internal data will be lost) and then reflash stock rom via Odin.
Then try again.

I forgot to talk about accessing recovery mode. All that happens an Android logo pops up and starts to look like it's loading the recovery os but then the phone just reboots again and continues to do the boot loop. Nothing changed no matter what custom recovery I flashed.
I would have no problem if I could just get into the recovery menu but that's my biggest obstacle.
Had a problem with my htc one m8, so i pulled out my i9100 backup phone.
it had neat rom 4.1.2 on it, and everything was working fine.
i have tried to flash onmi rom():
1. entered recovery mode
2. backed up CWM to external SDCARD.
3.flased "CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.zip" & rebooted into new recovery.
4.installed "omni-4.4.2-20140214-i9100-INFECTED.zip".
5.installed "pa_gapps-modular-micro-4.4.2-20140207-signed.zip"
6.installed "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip".
after that, when i wanted to reboot, i got a message saying i could loose su and if i want to fix it, i choosed "NO".
device entered to a boot loop.
i tought no biggy, i would go back to recovery, flash philz CWM and recover my nandroid backup.
it will not get into recovery mode.
tried again, pulled the battery, put it back, hold down VOL-Down+home+power button, and nothing, boot loops over and over again.
tried to get into download mode, not going there as well.
connecting to a pc with ADB+samsung drivers, the device wont show up.
Any suggestions? did i bricked the phone forever?

Are you sure that the phone doesn't boot into the download mode(Vol Up+Powe+Home) ??
If that's the case, then I'm afraid that your phone is hard bricked forever. You have to fix/replace the motherboard then(about $50). You can go to the service center and get it done, or check out this video(JTAG METHOD): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zN7le4GmxZs
I hope something works out for you.

yes, i'm sure :'( its not my first time with the device.
i have ordered a usb jig from ebay, maybe it will force the device into download mode...if not... :\
just got my USB jig i have ordered from ebay(less than a dollar), plugged it to the phone, and it got into download mode!
used odin to flash stock rom, and then installed cyanogenmod with the cm installer.
everything is working fine!
I know this is late, but I wanna ask a question. Firstly I'm happy that your bricked phone came back to life(like how many years ago).
Can a USB jig work on any other phone brand other than Samsung phones? Can it be used for tecno, infinix, and all that? Or it is dedicated to only Samsung mobiles?
Hello everybody~
1. Xperia SP
2. BootLoop
3. Can't get further than Sony logo (it keep restarting so i assume I can't get to recovery screen)
4. USB debug is off
5. I dont have CWM, the last time i see my recovery screen is the cynagenmod recovery.
6. Now I had a problem turning it off...
I would hope to get the phone back alive, if not then at least retrive some of my files from the inner storage.
Worst case, I believe i can bring it to some techs who will break my phone to get the storage physically to do transfer. (not sure if that works??)
additional details:
I flashed a firmware which is by right the firmware for Xposed, xperia SP and that started the boot loop.
At first it can reach the screen of cynagenmod but it kept flashing for an hour, which i concluded that it is a bootloop.
I had wiped the cache partition as well as selecting the factory reset option in the cynagenmod recovery.
I flashed XperiaSP_C530X_12.0.A.1.257_KernelOnly.ftf using fasttool and from then on, bootloop had leveled up, and cant get pass Sony....
Thank you everyone!!
I forgot to thanks in advance~ hahaha
Flash stock ROM mate, always when that happens flash stock ROM. Did you even read before posting?
Hi guys, I really need your help.
I'm new at this rooting stuffs and I tried to root my Oppo Neo 5.
I tried so many softwares like OneClickRoot, FramaRoot, and Kingroot but none seemed to work.
So I resorted to an app called oppo tools
It worked at first but I got really annoyed when my status bar suddenly colored to red when my phone discharges to 15% so I unrooted my phone and rooted back again. I really thought that was going to fix my problem but that's where the bootloop issue started.
I tried to flash some custom recovery zip but it failed since I only have a stock recovery.
But the thing is, I found a guide that says to rename the clockworkrecovery img to PG86IMG.zip.
So I did tried that and as soon as I flashed the zip from my stock recovery, my phone hanged.
I long-pressed the power button to restart and boot into recovery mode but nothing seems to happen.
I'll try to explain a bit more on how it looks when I boot my device.
When it boots normally (I mean not pressing the volume to enter recovery mode) it will only show the logo but when I try to go into recovery mode it will show the logo with a little text on the lower left portion "Recovery Mode"
Before I flashed the PG86IMG.zip, recovery mode was still working and the charging screen when off is working too.
but after I flashed the zip, every time I try to recovery mode the logo shows up with the little text but RECOVERY MODE isn't working. When I charge my phone it automatically boots up and shows the logo and text like it's trying to go recovery mode (I'm just trying to charge? It's going to recovery mode)
I tried using "adb devices" on cmd but it's not detecting any devices.
I'm really out of ideas guys, I know not all people use this model but what would be your suggestion?
A suggestion on how to fix this would really be appreciated :good:
I'm sorry I'm really new at this, please correct me if I did something wrong starting this thread. :angel:

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't notice.
Lately I can't access the recovery mode but now
I'm currently on Boot-loop and I can enter into recovery.
The ColorOS recovery mode only have limited function that I can mess around.
It only has the apply update, wipe data and cache, reboot, power off and system file verification.
As always I already did wipe the data and cache but nothing happens. Still boot-loop.
What should I do?

You made a soft brick, not to worry flash it with correct stock firmware, if the phone is in warranty than ask them to do flash, this will take approx 10-30min. If it isn't in warranty than you should try it own or else pay some amount and the rest they will do.

Hello everybody, My father's old S2 was running well till today, then suddenly it didn't wake up. Tried restarting and got a kernel panic. Then, nothing. The phone stucks on the I9100 logo or sometimes tries to boot, but it's stuck. It DOESN'T enter recovery mode, only download one. I was running a modded Nougat or Marshmallow ROM, and I've found a soft-brick/NAND RW corruption thread here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/guide-fix-unflashable-soft-bricked-gsii-t1457458
It's quite old and I don't know if it works, it refers to the old ICS, and, since I don't want to mess up things more than this, I prefer to ask you if someone has some other recent discussions or solutions for me.
Thank you so much in advance!
Guys can someone please help me? I tried that guide but I can't enter recovery mode, I tried flashing the CMW recovery with ODIN and it always get stuck on "NAND write start!". There is no chance to revive the phone? I can't flash a ROM with ODIN too, it gets stuck at the same point..
Also had the issue once that my device suddenly wouldn't boot up anymore. Also recovery didn't work. I fixed by flashing another recovery via Odin in download mode.
Did take quite long though until I finally succeeded, because at some recovery flashes Odin wouldn't pass 'NAND write start' or something. I tried with different recoveries and USB ports and somehow managed to get it working again. Then I wiped data, cache, system and reinstalled the ROM and Gapps.
Hope this helps.
