Hi, I hope you can help me as I am clueless about my phone...
I had the stock 4.1.2 firmware on my phone and wanted to update to Slimkat 4.2, so I first flashed the Siyah-s2-v6.0b5 kernel, check if the device is rooted and booted into recovery.
In recovery I did the factory reset, wiped the cache and formated the system partition.
Then the mistake happened and instead of flashing the Slimrom firmware I kept my finger to long on the swipe enabled recovery and selected "Reboot now" by mistake...
Basically since then my phone can only enter the Download mode (at least). I cannot enter recovery and I cannot boot it.
I flashed the Stock 4.1.2 firmware again but the problem remains. Directly after flashing the firmware when the phone gets rebooted I can see the white Samsung logo (where the yellow triangle would appear with a rooted kernel), then instead of showing to boot animation it switches to the charging screen but it does not charge (battery is and keeps grey).
I also put in another battery just for the case but that didn't change anything of course...
I hope you can help me, else I have the first brick for my wall of shame...
P.S. The stock firmware I use is "I9100XWLSD_I9100DBTLS7_DBT" from sammobile.
Can you still boot to download mode? If not, then look for a USB JIG.

Hello,
My galaxy tab 10.1 P7510 is dead.
I used ODIN to put stock 4.0.4 (P7510UELPL) on it.
Everything goes well and I get green PASS! icon.
Now my system reboots to the Battery logo. but stays stuck here.
I can hold power button/volume-down to go back to download mode or recovery mode. I did factory reset and wiped cache.
Still it goes to battery logo after reboot.
Is my battery dead or my whole tablet?
Thanks for any help

Reflash via odin, as long as you can get in recovery/download you're safe

I tried that several times with 4.0.4 USA. But no luck.
I am now downloading another region to see if it was the file that was the problem. Although it flashed ok.

OK. I tried several pc's win7 32 and 64-bit. No luck
several versions of ODIN. Noluck
I can boot in download mode. I restored several different versions of p7510 firmware.
Odin says everything is ok. "pass"
But once I reboot I get the samsung logo and immediately afterwards the 2inch battery logo in the middle of the screen and nothing else.
I can press the power button and go back to recovery/download mode but same error.
If I reboot and go to recovery and wipe data and reset it boot up to the logo with padlock icon on the bottom and nothing else.
Anyone seen this problem?
Same but no recovery
I have the same problem (stuck at boot screen). I can get to Odin mode but can't boot into recovery. When I choose it from the download menu instead of Odin mode, the tab just goes blank. I even used Odin to flash anew Recovery (CWM). No luck. Any ideas?
hey, i'm fairly new to androids and rooting, i was running a biftor rom and everything was going fine, from what i can remember ROM Manager asked me if i'd like to update some binary or something it said it would automatically reboot into CWM but when it rebooted it didn't load CWM instead it just got stuck on the boot screen with an exclamation mark, when i try and enter recovery mode i get the empty battery logo but the circle underneath the battery that usually spins around is froze, the phone has full charge as it's been on charge all night, i can still enter download mode, I've tried to reflash the recovery with 0din but i get more problems with odin getting stuck on 'setup connection' and 'nand write start' can someone give me some advice please? I'm on an S2 i9100 btw, thanks.

reflash the recovery via Odin??? or you mean you flashed a stock rom?
Reflash the ROM or flash back to stock Android via Odin

Above poster is correct, need to re flash a stock ROM via Odin.
Just needed to say here though, never use ROM manager on an i9100. It's a sure-fire way to screw things up or brick, as you unfortunately found out the hard way :/

Hi.
A friend has bought a second hand S6 Edge witch don´t boot. The phone stays in the initial Samsung S6 Edge logo and don´t do anything.
I have flashed tcwm recovery. In the recovery was a message unable to mount /system and unable to mount /data. If have formatted the /data and the message of /data disappeared and the recovery and the pc read the storage.
I flashed the original firmware, and after flashing it the phone reboots, and when the android logo appears and starts loading. At the half of loading appears a message "ERASING..." and then again the fist Samsung logo and there stays freeze. I don´t know why do this and how to do... Any ideas??
I was searching something about but I didn´t find nothing like this case.
Thank you.
it is normal. if you are on 5.1.1 please flash unibase kernel for 5.1.1 if not flash the one for 5.0.2 problem solved
But I don´t understand. When if flash the 5.1.1 firmware I flash the kernel too, it´s included in the new firmware, is´t it?
I´ve installed the 5.1.1 unibase kernell and do the same. Erasing... and in the TCWM appears the message "No OS installed!!". Any ideas?
I don´t know what try.
I have flashed the firmware with Odin that Smart Switch has downloaded and do the same thing. The files I have flashed are:
BL_G925FXXU2COH4_CL5599585_QB6038209_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
AP_G925FXXU2COH4_CL5599585_QB6038209_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CP_G925FXXU2COH2_CL5599585_QB5974109_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CSC_TEF_G925FTEF2COH1_CL5641944_QB6041794_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
In the stock recovery appears the message of the photo.

****... your imei is gone mate...
install twrp.
have a backup of your phone when you go to recovery again in case if you didnt lose your imei yet.
then go to wipe and advanced wipe then select everything except usb-otg then wipe.
put into download mode and connect smart switch.
recover your phone using emergency recovery.
when it finishes, your phone may have a distorted screen. dont panic.
put it on download mode again
flash 5.1.1 unibase kernel
then you are good to go but your imei is gone probably mate... i feel sorry for you because i have the same issue..
Hi there,
I am new to android phone and I had an old Grand Quattro GT-I82552 to play with.
I followed the guide at xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2494471, downloaded
- ODIN v3.07
- CWM Recovery v6.0.4.5
- Stock Recovery GT-I8552
I followed the steps and flash CWM Recovery v6.0.4.5, but on next boot it won't go to CWM recovery mode (I did removed battery first). I tried many times with other CWM from different sources and now my phone won't boot, it just show up the Samsung Logo with yellow triangles, then shutdown. It doesn't look like a loop boot, as it shutdown entirely. I can't charge the phone either.
I can still go in the usb downloading mode so I flashed the stock recovery, no luck, phone still can't boot.
Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.
EDIT: I found out that I was too careless to noticed that Volume UP is required for boot into CWM, instead as Volume DOWN. So I can boot into CWM now, however I supposed I can withhold my SuperSU install, and just boot into my stock Samsung appearance by normal shutdown and startup of my phone? I can't, everytime I tried to power on, it get's me to empty battery screen then shut off. I can't seem to charge the phone as well.
Have you tried charging the phone for a few hours while in recovery mode, and then turn the device on?

Thank you for your suggestion I will try that. Actually I tried to splice a USB wires and connect red/black to +/- contact for the battery and charge it for few hours, it doesn't seem to get hot, and certainly the phone still can't switch on with the battery.
Initially I thought maybe I messed up the firmware (really I only flash cwm) hence the phone's battery charge controller is not working that's why I tried external charging, but I am not too sure now.
My only hope is to get a way to verify I have enough battery power so I can flash the stock recovery in "downloading mode". I dare not flash recovery without full battery, though the download mode can be accessed while I plugin into PC's usb port.

Don't worry your phone will charge while in recovery around 2% in 6-7 minutes. After that you can flash stock os via Odin. Next time you try to flash recovery don't check auto reboot in Odin when flashing of tar file will complete remove battery and boot to recovery. Then flash supersu

Thanks for your advice. I took both of your advice and had my phone flashed with Stock ROM and now it returned to normal with fully charged battery sign shown. My battery appears to be fine with and fully charged, the battery current probably can't be detected with my broken phone back then.
With StockROM in and fully battery, I redo the custom flashing and I am now on custom ROM! Though have some problem with the ROM (battery report not correct, no front camera..) but I am happy now the phone is back to work now.
Thank you very much.
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?
