S6 edge can't boot... - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I'm on 5.0.2 rooted with ping pong root and stock recovery, knox still 0x0 that's why I haven't updated to 5.1.1
Just an hour ago phone went off and in the begining I was able to boot normally but it was stuck and reseted itself 2-3 mins after getting into the system....
At that time I was able to get into recovery and download mode normally
I decided to wipe cache partition just to see if it fixes anything so from that time it's stuck on samsung logo
I used odin to reflash stock rom but without better results, only thing changed is that when I get into recovery a dead android with a yellow triangle (not the red one inside android little man, just a yellow one connected to the android little man with a dotted line if this matters at all) appears before the recovery menu
Download mode still says "Current binary: Samsung official" and "System Status: Custom" just like before the odin flash
1) Only solution now is factory reset from inside recovery??
2) Can I get my files from inside somehow before factory reset or recover them just after the factory reset? It's 6 months without a backup now....
Thanks for your time

This is why you always keep a backup.
No backup = i don't care abut my data.
You might find with remaining files that stock firmware over the top doesn't help. Try flashing something newer like 5.1.1 or 6.0.1 . Will lose ping pong with a newer version. But speed and battery life are like 10x better.

I was always keeping a backup every month or two, it's the first time (and the last) I haven't done so for 6 months
I can't go with a newer version because I'm using SmartView app to stream my TV to my phone and it needs stock kernel which can't be used if rooted with a 5.1.1 or newer version

Try this,it uses stock kernel

1. First do a factory reset.
2. If that doesn't help try a newer MM stock ROM.
3. Claim warranty.
4. No warranty? => Custom ROM

Even after factory reset, it is stuck after 1 min of getting into the system
Same thing happens when in recovery menu (I also get dm-verity verification failed), it is stuck after seconds....I don't understand....I even tried reflash stock fw of course....same thing happens....I barely get into the system home screen and then it freezes...only thing that is not stuck is Download mode which works....
If I let it on charger switched off it switches on by itself...getting into home screen and freezes after 1 min....
I also tried nand erase all from odin...results are the same...
What is wrong?
Please anyone help...

Loop S3 LTE

Hi, been reading lots about guides spent 3hr trying to flash my S3 LTE, prob was i tried cynagen 10.1, didnt like interface, so i tried to reflash a custom 4.1.2, that i used before. This is UK model. I had CWM on before ,Seems now i have get a loop on sumsung logo after every flash. I have tried diff roms the one i used before same thing. It doesnt have cwm on as i wipe and delte data and when i reboot with battery out it just show stock recovery. So I used odin to put cwm so i can wipe/ clear cache try install roms from sd but same loop.message says install aborted from sd install. I have even just tried kies a few times on recovery and still get loop. My counter is showing 12 now so dont know if taking it back to shop will get warrenty repair. any ideas where the problem is, as maybe i tried cyn 10.1 1st time and it got stuck on spinning logo as i didnt wipe/delete user data 1st. am at a loss of how to just flash any rom on to get it to work. Thanks also i have used odin to flash roms on but still same loop.
Flash stock Rom with Odin
Boot into 3e recovery and do factory reset
Are you sure you are flashing stuff meant for the i9305 and NOT the i9300?
I had originally flashed to I9305XXBLL3_I9305DBTBLL3_I9305XXBLL3_HOME.tar.md5 from stock and used for a while and even flashed bak a few times before using this rom, however reflashing this or using kies recover firmware after install process the green andriod man loads some stuff then goes to loop on samsung logo, i have tried many flashed, i dont understand y i wud get a loop on any flashes now it didnt before. surely there must b a way to stop the loop, I used kies 4 times to ugrade firmware recove using my s/n etc but it always seem to complete but loop, any suggestions, am tempted to bring to phone shop for warrenty and if they ask about the 14 installs i will have to say i used kies 14 times. thanks

Bricked or not, thats the Question....

Hey Folks,
I'm Freaking out atm -.-
On Saturday my Phone just shut down, restartet and hung in a bootloop. Doing Wipes and Factory Resets didnt helped me. So i pulled the last Joker and flashed as its metioned here. First few Times nothing happend (But ODIN gave me PASSED after Procedure).
Today I tried again with Odin 3.04, Firmware from the Thread (and Vodafone GER Firmware, Factory Reset / Wpies via Android Recovery) and Wooooooow, Phone is booting. BUT its just booting up, I can make some Settings like Choose Language, Connect to WiFi and so on. After ~30 Seconds the Phone reboots, 3-6 Times, then its stucks on Bootanimation (not looping). After a while Phone gets hot on the Bottom.
Soooooo, any can tell me whats wrong with my Buddy?
Cant send it to Service cause i cannot reset the flashcounter (cant install Apps due to the lack of time phone is active)
Im able to root Phone again / replace stock recovery with CWM -Maybe flashable Zip for resetting the counter?
Installing CustomRom will give me a Loop on Splash Screen
I need my freakin Phone
Cheers

- Rooted with CF-Root 6.4 via Odin again - now i can access CWM Recovery
- Wiped everything (system, data, cache, dalvik, battery, preload)
- Flashed Stock ROM via Odin
- Recovery Droid showed up with blue loading bar under it
- Phone is running blue samsung bootanimation twice
- Phone gives me bootsplashloop twice
- Phone shows blue bootanimation and gets stuck on breathing samsung logo (last part of the bootanimation), blue notification LED is breathing
any guess?

Now its looping the bootsplash 3 or 4 times and than Screen turns black.
After wiping Dalvik, and Factory Reset again Phone boots to Bootanimation (Samsung Logo breathing), Bootanimation starts a Second Time Without Sound, than Boot Splash, Bootsound and blue Bootanimation again.
Sometimes with Graphical glitches (the blue circle around samsung text)
But going not further than Bootanimation, no System showing up
is the phone model name (i9300) present in download mode?
aslo, does the recovery say anything about the efs folder?

[Help] Bricked my 10.1v - Recovery won't install

Hi there,
I hope there ist somebody here who could help me.
I was about to install the lates CyanogenMod on my Tablet and kind of screwed up.
My tablet was rooted, but had some problems installing a Recovery-Image. So I installed the stock Rom (3.0.1) and tried to flash CyanogenMod again. Installting everything via Odin works fine, but when I try to boot into recovery it won't work. So I tried to install the recovery image from the CyanogenMod-Wiki via fastboot. At this point the Tablet schows following error:
Code:
Failed to process command getvar: partition-type : recovery error (0x2)
I had the problem before, when my tablet was rooted, that I could not install the recovery via the Rom Manager...
So I thougt that I might have screwed up my partitions at some point. I went on a hunt for the Pit file and then to install stock Rim with the Pit file again. Well I did find a Pit file which is supposed to work for my tablet. But now everything is screwed up. It will not start anymore at all. Either it ist stuck on the Samsung boot screen or it shows an Android with the exclamation mark and doesn't do anything anymore...
This ist the Pit file which ist supposed to work:
Code:
android_fastboot_emmc_full_p4_16G_32G.zip
Has anyone got a working Pit file für the P7100?
Does the Pit file even fix my partition problem?
Is there a way to manually partition the tab and if yes has anyone got a guide?
I hope there ist someone here that can help me. I would really appreciate it! I know I screwed up badly on this one :crying:
Thanks to everyone taking time to help me in advance.
You might try doing stock image to open if you can get to the recovery and just do a full wipe. ....or try opening your stock recovery if you can and just do a factory reset wipe everything

Thanks for your quick response.
On rare occasion I do get into the recovery and did a full wipe of erverything. I even tried to format all the partitions. On some partitions it just said, that it can not format them. I also reinstalled the stock rom a couple of times as well.
Nothing of this worked so far. I am always stuck on the boot screen or the android with the exclamation mark (after I factory reset ist or reinstalled the stock rom)
Edit: When I boot (not flash) the recovery via fastboot I can get into the downloaded recovery from CyanogenMod.
I tried a little more yesterday to revive my tab...
When I flash the stock rom in download mode via odin, it starts afterwards to a screen with the android and the exclamation mark. At this screen I can press the power and volume + button a couple times and then I am in the stock recovery. Tried every option in there, but it just wont helpt. Afterwards it ist stuck on tying to boot into recovery.
When I don't press the power and volume + button and just wait after flashing stock rom, the tab will reboot after a while and gets into a boot loop with the samsung boot screen...
Tried flashing a recovery rom from clockwork as well, but afterwards I am not able to boot into it. My guess is, that the partitions are screwed up and therefore the tab can not boot... Is there a way to manually partition my tab? Can anyone post the partition table for the P7100 (Galaxy Tab 10.1v)?
Oh yeah... Everything started after I flashed the last nightly from CyanogenMod. That was the first time the tab got stuck on the boot screen and ever since can not get past it.
I scared that I completely broke my tab now and wont be able to get it back :crying:
If your thread name is correct you have a 10.1v if I am correct the code name for it is P3 but the Odin file you posted I assume is for the P4 because of its naming. If it is so the you have flashed the wrong stock firmware image for your tab. You have used 10.1 Wifi and 3G model firmware on a 10.1v. Your tablet could be seriously screwed up but there is still hope if you can get into download mode.

You are right. I have the P3 and flashed the P4 PIT-file. I have read on a couple sites, that the P4 ist as well the right one for the P3 and haven't found another PIT-file just for the P3.
I only started using the PIT file after my bootloop problem started, which was directly after flashing CyanogenMod (nightly). The version I downloaded was supposed to work all right on my tab, but did screw it up. Do you have any idea which part of my tab could be screwed up and what I could try?
I think it is the partitions and I flashed the stock rom for the 10.1v (3.0.1) a couple times (with and without the P4 file)...
I am getting all right into download mode, but can only get into the recovery directly after flashing the stock rom. After one mor restart I can't access the recovery anymore...

Bricked?? Stuck at samsung logo screen for 1 sec then reboots.

Okay, So the title pretty much says it all. I am stuck at the Samsung boot logo (not bootanimation) and it only shows for about 1 second then reboots and continues.
This started after I tried to flash a rom and it messed up and I tried to flash via odin. I was on MJ9 and and got a bootloop so I did the odin thing. I've used odin before but it is not working well for me now.
I am able to boot into download mode but TWRP no longer works. I was able to flash via odin and it says success but the phone does not reboot like it should.
I have purchased a galaxy nexus on the cheap to hold me over until the nexus 6 is out but if I can fix my note, I would like to.
I know there were other threads about this same issue but it seems that they are all on a different version of the note, or on a s3 or something. Not to mention, I don't see anything that I could try without asking for some help on here. Can someone maybe point me in the direction of the factory firmware (preferably a rootable or already rooted version) that I can flash that will play well with my note.
Thanks guys!!!

Before you tried to flash a custom ROM and things went wonky...were you on Verizon's factory stock 4.3 MJ9 firmware, or on Beanstown106’s modified 4.3 MJ9 with TWRP installed?
Does the phone still boot into stock recovery? If so, you may be able to fix the phone by doing a factory reset.

If you were on Verizon's factory stock 4.3 MJ9, then you won't be able to Odin flash back to 4.1.2 or any earlier Android version because the bootloader has been locked down tight on 4.3 (and 4.4.2) with no current do it yourself method to unlock for those newer versions. You would want to restore the phone back to factory stock 4.3 though, if that's what version you were on before your phone got messed up. You can root the phone on 4.3 with saferoot, then use safestrap recovery to flash some custom Touchwiz ROM's.
If you were on the 4.1.2 based bootloader, (but running Beanstown106’s MJ9 firmware and TWRP), then you would want to restore your phone back to factory stock 4.1.2 and then root and unlock the bootloader again with CASUAL. This would give you the most flexibility with flashing custom kernels, ROM's, etc...
Check out Section 1b in Droidstyle's restore guide at this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34891181. The guide has download links for the files you'll need to restore the phone back to the correct build version.

S6-Edge stuck in TWRP recovery mode

Hello all,
Recently I bought the S8 Plus and I want to sell my S6 Edge, so I wanted to clean it first before actually selling it.
I rooted my phone before, I can't remember how or what software I used, I have a feeling it was Odin,
anyway, I cleaned up my phone by doing a factory reset from within Android's settings.
Since that moment, my phone is stuck in TWRP's Recovery mode.
I have multiple stock roms, but Odin is not able to make a connection with the phone, because I can't get into boot mode.
I've also read things about ADB Sideload, but that freezes up my phone.
Then I read about some command line to type in via the terminal, but that didn't work either.
Also trying to install stuck roms didn't do anything.
Does anyone have an idea how I can get my phone back into bootmode so I can load up Odin and put a stock rom on it?
Any help is greatly appreciated

That doesn't work either.
If I select Download, my phones freezes up.
Update:
I managed to update TWRP, making me able to go back to Download mode!
But, once I tried Odin to flash a stock rom, it failed.
Also, my KNOX Warrenty Void is set '1'.
Am I still able to install any roms or get this KNOX fixed?

If you have a PC, use samsung smart switch to re-initialize your device.
And you can not do anything for tripped knox.
