hi everyome i need some help. i used odin to go back to stock on my skyrocket, it said it is done but it is stuck on an infinet boot loop! i ran odin again, and went into stock recovery. still boot looping help me please i just got this phone! how do i fix this
Does it boot to the OS and then reboot? Or does it not get that far?
Try doing a stock 3E Recovery format.
noo, it only goes to the glowing samsung logo then reeboots.. all over and over
Pull battery... re-insert battery... plug cable in phone so it boots into download mode... can you get into dload mode? If so, flash the stock 3e recovery again and see if that helps solve the boot loop.. IF you care about the flash counter, don't odin flash a kernel or rom with kernel... if you don't care about counter, odin flash the stock tar.
ok, how do i do the kernal way. havent tried that yet.
thas how it began is i flashed the stock tar in odin
flashes stock recovery, still nothing....
if you flashed the stock .tar via Odin, you may have already tripped the customer binary (flash) counter. Anyway, if you can get into recovery or download, you should be able to recover it. Give us some history: What recovery did you have on the phone (CWM or 3e stock recovery)? Doesn't sound like you can get it back into Recovery.... but can you get into Download mode?
i had cwm 5.0.2.7 installed, i then got my stock tar and flashed it. it started up, went to the glowing samsung screen, then shut off and restarted again. at first i could get into 3e recovery and dload. let me try if i can get into 3e again.
i am now in 3e recovery
you may have had a bad stock tar flash... but if you're in 3e recovery, did you wipe data/ factory reset yet? clear cache? (I have CWM recovery now, so can't recall what the stock 3e recovery options were... someone else might know). See if you can wipe data/ factory reset (clear cache) and see if you can reboot into android.
no luck factory reset and clear cache didnt work. this should be a soft brick right? i can get into my recovery and dload mode, there has to be a way to fix this.
i hope u have a microsd, this method should work if u do. Remove it and download darkside erase utility to it, and put it back in phone. Flash cwm recovery in download mode, and reboot into it. Flash darkside, then reboot into download mode again and flash stock, this will fully erase ANYTHING left on ur phone
this first link is Odin back to stock... sounds like this is what you tried, but read through the OP on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342348
here's another great thread by appdroid "All in One guide for NOOBs".. read through the first few pages... good info for flashing.

A few weeks ago, I soft-bricked my SR... and I had 3e recovery on at the time so my options were limited. I didn't want to trip my flash counter, so I opted to Odin flash CWM recovery tar... then from CWM, I flashed silver03wrx's stock 2.3.6 KK1 rom zip. Go to Dev Forum (stickies) and you can find the CWM recovery tar. You can also find the stock roms. You can download those zips to your desktop/laptop computer. From CWM there's a way to mount usb storage so you can grab those zips and put them on your sdcard... then flash the rom zips. give a quick read to those first 2 threads
downloading now.... would flashing the kk1 radio about a week ago have to do with anything, was working great, since the stock is kj1 or something would i have to reflash the stock radio, which i just did. so i hope it was ok to do that.
no luck, when i tried to flash a rom, it quit out of cwm, went to samsung screen and stays on the glowing samsung logo forever now. have to take the battery out or reset it
thank you icenight89! you saved my phone! at first it didnt work becuase i didnt rebbot into recovery, did it a second time rebooted into recovery and it is now booting into the rom, thank you so much! if i could thank you 1 million times i would!
All,
I'm rooted and unlocked. The weirdest thing I'm experiencing is that in both the EZ Recovery and Rom Manager, when I select to reboot into recovery, I'm not booting into ClockworkMod. I'm booting into stock recovery I think. The only time it would boot into ClockwordMod is when I flash touch clockwork mod then it would boot into the correct recovery.
Do I need to flash the Touch ClockworkMod every time I want to boot into recovery? Thats annoying.
Please help.
Thanks!
If you boot into stock recovery by selecting reboot recovery then CWM is simply not installed. Are you selecting the correct option in ez recovery to install the recovery?
I'm good now. I was on stock, but was rooted and unlocked. Like I said, it would work if I flash the recovery, but if I reboot into recovery again without flashing it would go back to stock recovery.
Anyways, I've flashed to CleanRom 4.0 and tested rebooting into recovery and sure enough it went to the ClockworkMod Recovery. So looks like I"m good.
It will do that on stock rom unless a couple of files are modified I believe. Doesn't do it on custom roms.
Hi, I followed this tutorial (http://mobigees.info/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-tab-2-7-0-gt-p3110-3110/) and my tablet is now stuck in the logo screen. Seems like the pit file screwed the partitions. Can I fix this without loosing all the data? If not, can I flash a stock+root rom to recovery it?
Thanks.
Till you can enter Odin mode, you are safe. If you can boot into recovery its still better, flash a stock rooted rom from recovery.
Sent from my P5100 Samsung Galaxy Note 8
Yeah, I guess that is the best bet. I was hoping to save the app data, since I could do a backup from CW, but nothing works to actually boot the tablet. Flash a kernel is the only thing left, before flash a full rom and lost everything. Silly mistake.
Now I feel like the wrong piece is the kernel. The tablet is still stuck in the logo screen, but it begins a MTP protocol with the PC. More interesting yet, I can do a CMW backup, so it can read the partitions. Is there a kernel for P3110/4.1.2 that I can flash?
Update: I got the stock kernel (boot.img) at http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-P3110 and flashed via heimdall. Everything is fine and I haven't lost anything.
I rooted my device. Everything's all good.
I flashed a rom (xposed framework) using Flashify.
My phone started going crazy after the reboot.
Now I'm stuck in the samsung logo screen.
I need help.
I dont have TWRP Recovery or anything else. My recovery is still the Android Recovery.
I have tried wipe cache and wipe/factory reset. Nothing works after rebooting.
My option right now is downloading a stock ROM and installing it via Odin.
Problem is, I don't know if my phone is region locked and I cannot find my region/country stock ROM.
So I'm going to assume any of them will work as long as it has the same android and build version as my phone.
I cannot access my phone.
Only able to go into recovery and download mode. A normal boot will just stay stuck on the samsung logo screen for hours.
Any help is appreciated. I am very new to this, please help me.
Which device?
Wiped everything and have no back ups anymore. Cant figure out how to install a rom. TWRP and Download mode still work but No matter what I flash I get stuck at samsung loading screen. Halp?!
Trying to get Tekxodus installed on my N920T which currently has nothing on it.
Still can not figure out what Im doing wrong. I wiped internal storage which I know I shouldnt have but when I flash Tekxodus I get caught in a bootloop until the phone powers off to charge. Even flashing skyhigh kernal after the rom does nothing. Still boot looping.
Use download mode to Odin back to stock. Then re-send twrp. Let it boot first. Then go back to twrp and flash your rom
I was able to restore a stock rom, install twrp successfully but this rom (teksodus) does not boot no matter how I flash it. Stuck at samsung screen again but this time on a custom samsung load screen. If I flash a new kernal I get stuck at the black samsung screen. Haha its been too long since Ive done this.
Got it all sorted, thanks!
