Stuck at bootloop after Nandroid Restore - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I am on Xtrestrolite 3.3 Marshmallow and made a Nandroid Restore of this. After that, I see the boot logo and then only a black screen. New installation of a fresh Xtrestrolite via TWRP doesn´t work. Any suggestions?

Stuck at the Samsung boot logo

Hi,
CF rooted today and cheked out supernexus but decided to revert back to my backup (official 4.1). I booted into recovery and did a full wipe, and restored the backup. Upon reboot the boot seems to be stuck at the SAMSUNG logo - it still glows but nothing happens. It's been like this for 10 min. or so!
Would a stock rom Odin flash do the trick or am I screwed...

I wiped data/factory reset, cache and dalvik the first time around. Tried wiping cache and dalvik again at no avail. :crying:
have you got any other ROMs on your SDCARD you could flash through recovery?

Hi you are stuck on bootloop
you can flash another firmware to sort this out go to sammobile.com and download a firmware there.. but you have to have an account there so if you don't have one yet, you can register there for free also, after you have downloaded the firmware, use PDA in odin to flash..
i hope this helps cheers!
Thanks guys
Luckily I still had the supernexus rom on my internal sdcard, so I was able to flash that with success. Guess my inital ROM backup was corrupted!
I'm sure the sammobile solution will come in handy next time!

Softbrick after flashing theme - how to restore without losing sd content

Hi,
so I tried to install a new theme and during the install the phone froze. I tried to access the recovery again, but I can't, the phone stucks at galaxy s3 screen. However I can access download mode.
My question is, what do I have to do to keep my SD Card content (like pictures)? Which firmware should I flash? I was on Wanam Lite Rom.
Thanks for Help
Matt

Flashing a theme will not mess your recovery partition so it cannot happen that you have lost recovery..so try again..
Once you are able to boot into recovery flash the ROM which you were using without a wipe first...you will not loose anything..if you face problems then wipe data/factory reset in CWM ..even then you will not loose the data on your internal SD..

I know that it seems strange but I'm not able to access it. I tried to install
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1844756
on my wanamlite since someone wrote it would work (I did a nandroid backup first). However the installation froze and I had to pull the battery. Since then it won't boot or boot into recovery (the syiah kernel flash screen doesn't show up either).

Reboot to TWRP and wipe your System, Data, Dalvik and Cache... Then Boot to Download mode and flash your phone's proper firmware using Odin.. Make sure you have a backup of your installed Apps and their Data..
Hope this helps you

Can you get into recovery or download mode? If yes full wipe in recovery and install a new rom or flash back to stock with Odin and start again.

Yes install PhilZ recovery it as a option to use file Aroma to backup and move files look here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860 << especially the "Special Features Guide" also it as custom backup options.

Hey, that helped. But when I press the Wipe Data/Factory Reset button, the phone just restarts and gets back in loop.

Be careful because PhilZ as a option to do a normal wipe factory reset but also a option to install a new rom which formats all the necessary files to do that including your system (rom). This can leave you without a rom to boot into if you don't know how to use it propably,I would just recommend just flashing back to stock with Odin (and don't forget to factory reset after using Odin.

If you have tried flashing stock (and you have flashed everything correctly and wiped correctly) and you are still stuck in bootloop the only option I can see is to try the rescue firmware in the stickies forum.
Be very careful and follow instructions carefuly as it containes a pit file,if this failes then I would suggest service repair.

Tried to wipe again and booted up. It just took longer than normal (5mins) and then it booted up as normally. Thank you very much !
Now, if I want to flash Cyanogenmod again (Not Installer !), I just have to root and then flash Cyanogen Mod, right ?

Yep I agree don't use installer seen alot of problems with it... If you just want to install Cyanogen Mod (or any custom rom) with custom recovery then you do not need to root (only root if you want to backup or access anything from system), all custom roms come with root included. Just use a custom recovery wipe then flash your rom (factory reset if it bootloops) done.

DO THIS
1. before re flashing the baidu rom do clear cache/ factory reset and wipe partition.
If it still doesn't works then
2. download an official firmware and flash it via odin, then re-root your device and flash baidu rom. It work work 100%
Let me know for any further assistance
