Hi guys!
First off, I'm running on KatKiss 217. For a while now I've been stuck to the boot screen of my tablet. Before that I was using it while USB connected to the PC in our office. But then the battery run out so it turned off, I disconnected it and went back home to charge. When I turned it on while charging it was stuck on the boot screen.
Since I was going to upgrade to KatKiss 218, I went on ahead and flashed the 218. So I Format system, installed KatKiss 218 and cleared Dalvik/Cache. When I rebooted it gets past the boot screen but gets stuck on Android Upgrading: Starting Apps. Tried to revert back to KatKiss 217 but same thing happens.
Any idea how I can fix this? Hope you guys could help me out. Thanks in advance!
I think first of you must flash also the gapps. And full wipe would help too it stalled at start-up screen.
Sometimes flashing the same file twice would force it to installed properly and boot it successfully.
Finally got it to work! As you said, I had to do a Factory reset first to get it to work. Not sure why since I never had to do it before. Still, got it to work now. Thanks, man!
So I flashed CM12 on my Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 and then tried to encrypt it. I had full battery and everything but I saw them message that it failed. It asked me to reset the device so I clicked it. It was the only option. When it rebooted, it went straight to TWRP but instead of loading TWRP, it just kept showing the splash/loading screen. Then it would flash black quickly and then show the splash screen again. I left it plugged in over night to see if it would load. It did not. So I let the battery completely die. Once I charged it, it still does the same thing. I've tried using ODIN to flash TWRP again. It says it successful but the same thing happens. I also successfully flashed CWM with ODIN but the screen flashing thing still happens. (I can put the tablet in Download Mode with no problem).
Does this mean I've fried my SD card or is there some other fix I'm not aware of?
I'm not sure why this worked but I was able to boot into CM by leaving the device in the boot loop and running the command `adb reboot bootloader`. After that CM12 loaded up. I decided to try restarting and it restarted just fine too. Everything seems to be back to normal.
Device is a LG G3 D850, rooted, TWRP installed, stock ROM on 5.0.1
Here's the story: Yesterday I was browsing normally when the device froze up, then shut off. Wouldn't power on with the power button. I had to pull the battery and then it turned on. When the device booted back up, it was running very sluggish. Immediately noticed that the WiFi was constantly trying to turn on with no success (When entering the WiFi menu it only said "WiFi turning on"). Bluetooth would not turn on either. The battery was draining rapidly, about 20% in 30 minutes with no use. GSam Battery Monitor reported that Kernel (OS) had used 95% of the battery. I tried rebooting the phone with no success. Booted into recovery and cleared cache, no success. Couldn't find anything online besides people saying to try a different ROM/Stock rom or that they were told it was a failed motherboard. I tolerated using the phone into the night, but the battery was constantly draining and the phone temperature reported ~98 degrees even without use. The WiFi and Bluetooth never started working. Today, a few hours into the day, the phone shut off again. This time it started boot looping, going from the LG splash screen then the spinning AT&T screen, it would then hang and reboot (constantly boot looping). Battery pulls didnt help. Once or twice, the phone actually booted into the OS. After a minute it would start bootlooping again. I then booted into recovery and performed a factory reset. After the factory reset, the phone still bootlooped. I then booted into recovery and recovered to a previous nandroid backup. The phone booted up afterwards, with the WiFi actually working. After 5 minutes, the WiFi stopped working again and the phone proceeded to start bootlooping. My next attempt was to flash back to Stock ROM, using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-g3/general/unroot-return-to-factory-stock-att-lg-g3-t2820827. The flash worked successfully, booting into the OS on the setup screen, but instantly started bootlooping again... The bootloop is a little different now, going from LG splash screen > Green android with blue spinning circle in his stomach > AT&T splash screen > then rebooting. I cant even get into TWRP now (When trying to boot into recovery and clicking yes on the default factory reset screen, it just reboots instead of going into TWRP) Im out of options, should I give up and buy a new device, or does somebody have any other suggestions?

Sadly that is because of a hardware issue. Been happening. A lot lately.

Alright, that's what I had read. Just seemed like a software issue so I was hoping for the best. I went ahead and ordered a new device. Im guessing a full motherboard replacement would be required to fix the device?
Recurring Issue
Hello,
The same problem happened to me a few days ago so this is trully a recurring issue.
I also tried to fix my rom by reinstalling it, then tried to install multiple new rom, and finally flashed the original stock rom. I also am stuck on the bootloop issue.
I'm going to contact LG to see if they can do anything to repaire it but my hope are very low.
I'll try to update this message if I find a solution.
Mine just started bootlooping and no wifi and today it just died. Battery pulls didnt work either no power at all. Probably going to switch to the V30 when its released.

It's probably to late but theres another method returning to stock KitKat dont know the link off hand in development forums. Sucks you couldnt try no adb methods. Still have the Phone want to sell it i need a cheap screen ?
Last night I tried to flash TWRP just because I wanted to go to a custom ROM- alas, the phone now will not go past the google logo. It usually hangs there for 10-ish seconds and then reboots. Occasionally hangs there indefinitely. It's not a power button issue- the button worked just fine before flashing and I've confirmed it still works normally with a multimeter.
I tried to reflash stock using the Google images and "flashall.bat", which says it succeeded- but the phone still loops. I can get into fastboot, but I get the bootloop even in recovery. Running the similar script through Nexus Root Toolkit always fails on flashing the system partition- usually a buffer error due to a sparse header. Can't even seem to get it to do the "fastboot boot TWRP.img" or whatnot. I've flashed KitKat, Lollipop, and MM stock roms to no avail- they all say they succeed, then continue to bootloop.
I've tried just about everything I've seen on here- but not being able to get into recovery hampers efforts like repairing the persist partition.
Help?
When you boot into recovery, the phone reboots itself? If it does, it could be a sign of a failing power button.
When flashing a stock ROM, are you flashing userdata.img and then performing a factory reset/wipe before booting the phone with a stock ROM for the first time?
When I can get into recovery (without a restart), the phone is totally fine.
I think part of the issue is that the battery ran down while I was trying to do the repair- hence it trying to restart and failing. Power button still seems fine (again, confirmed with a multimeter). I left it plugged in to my iPad charger (since that's a 2A charger) overnight and it was still blinking red in the morning. I moved it upstairs and now I can't even make it that far.
Perhaps the battery was just shot by the time I got the "repair" done, hence the boot loops. Is there any way to revive it shy of cutting open the battery + charging manually (with a bench supply) or just replacing the battery altogether? I may try doing a motherboard swap with my working Nexus 5 just to see if it is in fact the battery.
When the phone is powered off and connected to a power source, do you ever see a flashing red LED? You flashed the correct twrp for the hammerhead?
I would try a new battery because it seems like everything is working.
My n7105 runs on resurrection remix(marshmallow). It works fine but some times, the device reboots randomly. Last night it rebooted and was stuck in boot loop. I went into custom recovery to factory reset but it said FAILED TO MOUNT DATA, SYSTEM, CACHE......I tried everything. Finally i managed to get my sdcard storage to work on the device and i flashed the stock ROM. It flashed successfully but when i rebooted, the samsung logo didnt appear.The device was shut down and i couldnt get it to turn on. It wouldnt show any kind of response. But when i charged, the phone heated up a bit. So.... Is my emmc chip dead?
