[Q] Failed Factory Reset and Flashing

My friend's Tab 2 always rebooting itself after 3-5 minutes of use
I tried factory reset from recovery in order to full format it, but the tab 2 isn't formatted
And then , I tried flash too, Odin said it's succceed after waiting for 104 min (it's weird)
After I boot the tab , the tab isn't formatted it keep like that before
Well it's weird, I've tried it with others firmware for p3100 too
It's not success, keep failed
My last way is did a factory reset from the setting, but always fail
Because the tab rebooting itself after a couple minutes
I've searched all over internet to find the solution, and there's no solution work for me
And I have no idea, is it because wrong key word ? I don't think so
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3170424&stc=1&d=1424189725
Now , I feel guilty I didn't able to fix it
I accept any solution , and take responsibility if it's lose all the data
And I hope for a response and solution :good:
Thanks in advance

[Completed] [Q] SM-T700 (klimtwifi) bootloop, bricked?

Hi. I successfully flashed blisspop rom to my SM-T700 tablet after flashing the stock rooted os. It pretty much worked perfectly. The problem here is that I never reset my dalvik cache and I'm not sure if blisspop does automatically for me or not, so I'm suspecting this is the problem. Anyway, I decided to reset to factory defaults to get space back on my internal sd card. I reset, and my tablet starts to boot into TWRP recovery, but I then experienced what people are always talking about-- bootloop. Now, I was going to reboot into recovery again, maybe it was a one-time glitch. But of course, my recovery goes away EVERY TIME I REBOOT, so now I'm stuck with the default recovery, which gets me nowhere. I try to do a normal boot, and surprise! IT DOESN'T START. So I get android studio and try to see if I can connect with my tablet through the built in adb console. I can't because apparently I need to accept the computer or something, but I can't, because the darn thing won't start up!! So there's my problem. I've tried adb, flashing stock rom, even attempting to corrupt it by pulling the battery when its starting so I can somehow reset it. No luck. Please help!

[Q] Samsung galaxy S4 stuck in bootloop

Hi all, I recently got a second hand Samsung galaxy S4 (GT-I9505) as a gift from a friend. I realized it had a problem that every time I went on certain applications especially settings I'd get a warning saying 'Unfortunately,'said app(settings)' has stopped.' I decided to factory reset my phone using the 'volume up, home button and power key' and I also wiped cache and even rebooted it, yet the problem still persists. Now when I try to turn on my phone and I get onto the set-up page when I try to press next it says 'Unfortunately settings has stopped' and takes me back to the start which I believe is called a boot-loop, I'm not sure though. I'm not to sure how my friend managed to get the phone to this state before he gave it to me and I think it may have either been that he downloaded a faulty application or that he tried to update the phone and then this problem occurred. Now I'm not too experienced when it comes to Custom Roms and things but I heard there is a solution which requires you to press the volume down and power key in order to download a Custom Rom but I'm not sure how I'll download one without the help of my phone(which remains in the boot-loop). And I'm also 100% sure that no Roms have been downloaded on the phone ever.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance

serach for flashing stock s4 ROMs via odin ....that should help for sure ....you can flash a factory ROM with this method and think your problem will be solved

Download factory ROM and download custom recovery(like philz touch or twrp), flash custom recovery via Odin...if its flashed successfully, goto recovery mode ( by pressimg buttons..sorry I don't know much about Samsung but I know to flash ROMs) if u entered recovery mode first wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe to install new ROM, then goto the option "install from SD" select the factory ROM package and wait until its finished fully....after flashing reboot your phone...and then ur phone is fully fixed..hope u will get ur problem solved soon....(thanx me if its helped am new to xda and I need some fame for helping more no. Of PPL and solving their problems) thank you....

I think downloading and flashing the rom from a computer would be easier. Just download the correct files from sammobile and flash them via Odin. Also you will need Samsung drivers, you can get them by installing kies or if you search here in the forums im pretty sure you'll find them too.

[Completed] Galaxy trend s7560m stock recovery not wiping data after wipe process completed

Hi guys
Im having a very weird issue with my galaxy trend, i want to do a factory reset because the device keeps restarting, it boots normallly but it restarts every time after 2 minutes. So i boot into recovery and perform a wipe data/ factory reset (the device is on stock recovery and firmware) as usual and it completes without any errors but when it boots nothing is erased, even the screen lock pattern, wallpaper, apps, everything is there. If i repeat the process i get the same results every time, by the way, i cant factory reset from the backup and reset option on andoid, it gets stuck on the erase everything button and pressing it does nothing.
Do anyone know why this could be happening?
Im downloading the stock firmware and flashing it through odin to see if that works, any help would be very much appreciated

I'll try posting there, anyway i don't have any hope left in the device, tried flashing stock rom via odin and it still doesn't do anything.
Doing some research on google it seems to be a hardware problem on the flash memory and only solution is replacing the mainboard
What i don't understand is why it doesn't give me any error when doing the factory reset when in reality the phone has not deleted anithing. I got a similar issue with a galaxy s4 that refused to write anything to it pretty much exactly as this device and gave up on it.

[SOLVED] Constant reboot, need urgent help!

Hey guys,
I have encountered a serious problem on my device. Today I rebooted my phone once and it has just stuck on the samsung logo. Then the phone began to reboot without ending....It could not just start. With the help of TWRP I have made a full wipe and tried to reinstall my actual firmware Superman 1.10.5, but I always stuck at 25%, the phone did not respond to any actions. I even tried to flash the stock 4-file firmware with Odin, but it did not help, the phone constantly reboots. Sometimes it manages to boot to the stage where the sign "installation of applications" appears, but a while later it stucks again and reboots. Please, help me to solve the issue, because I am begininng to think that it would be unpossible to recover the phone. I am only able to enter the download mode or recovery, anything else does not work.
Thanks....

Really sad to hear that story mate. First things first, I assume your BL version is matching with the firmware your flashing right. And when you go to TWRP, can you see /system and /data partition from the mount menu? If not, you have to perform a factory reset. I had issue like that with my Galaxy S7 and usually factory reset(not wiping) helped me with that situation. Since your system can boot up, but crashes after awhile, I do suspect that some of your partition might be corrupted(at least its what happened to me). So trying factory reset can be a good bet for you.
And... I think you have to provide more information with which variant you are using, and your BL version, TWRP version too, solve the problem quicker. Hope this information helps.

Yep, you are right, BL versions always matched firmwares. I tried to wipe the phone with TWRP 3.0.2.3 and also to make a factory reset with the stock recovery. The stock firmware, which I tried to flash, was G930FXXU1BPH6_G930FOXE1BPH1_SER consisting of 4 files including BL,AP,CP and CSC. After 3rd or 4th flash of the same stock firmware the phone suddenly became alive and began to boot. Wu-huuu:silly: I was happy as a child. After having successfully launched the stock rom I have again flashed TWRP 3.0.2.3, went to "wipe" option and formatted data. Then I have installed a Superman Rom 1.12 and everything went the right way. I don't understand only one thing: why after having wiped the phone several times and having reseted it through the stock as well as TWRP recovery it didn't want to boot.
As you said, I suppose that the one of partitions was corrupted. Oh damn, I thought that I won't be able to resuscitate this phone.
I have flashed about 20 phones during my life, but I have never ever encountered such serious problems.
