rooted and installed cyanogenmod. but sometimes when i boot up, the screen comes on with nothing on it, or the wording of the cyanogenmod half loads before it just hangs. have to hard reset it by holding down the power button, and after about 5 attempts of so, it loads up normally and then works perfect until of course i have to start or start the tablet again. tried with omnirom as well. same probelm. but when i flash back to stock samsung, i go into a bootloop of the samsung logo (which i solve by just going into stock recovery and factory resetting) and then every thing is back to normal. every bootup after too works smoothly, its only when i install a different rom does the bootup problem start and remains (even when i factory reset). any help would be much appreciated. thanks

So I had cyanogenmod 11 installed on my phone, and i wanted to try carbon.
So I did the factory reset and wiped everything through TWRP recovery and it installed normally.
I rebooted my phone when it was done and it came to the welcome screen. I was excited because carbon wasn't working before.
But i can't click anything. My home and back buttons aren't working.
I tried putting it into recovery but its not working. The only buttons that work are the volume and power so i held them down just like you would to put it into recover but it won't work. I help them down for five minutes and nothing happens. And its weird because i can still controll volume and take screenshots, just not click anything or use the buttons. I really don't know what to do, so any suggestions are welcome. Please help!
Ok, so here's the thing. I flashed this theme, but it's not working and my phone won't boot. So I try to boot recovery, only I can't seem to get it. I hold down vol up + power till it reboots, then hold down vol down to get into recovery. Except it just keeps trying to boot, and doesn't load recovery. Anything I can do?
This is scaring me a lot. Need help. Thanks.
Ok, figured it out. The bootloop would go to a black screen when it froze. To get to recovery, I needed to switch to vol down 1 second before the HTC logo popped up. I used a timer to time myself properly and pulled it off.
In recovery, wiped data, restoring nandroid. Should be back up and running shortly.
I had a bootloop while on CleanRom 1.2 but since no one else reported it I just assumed that it was something I did. Probably was too.
Hello!
I have a rooted XT1032 and as the 5.0 update is around the corner i thought i'd start from scratch so everything would be as smooth as possible. I backed up all my files and I commenced with the factory reset. The problem is that after turning off, my phone wants to enter CWM, but is not able and keeps on trying(i think this is due to the fact that the factory reset deleted some CWM files). I only see Andro for about half a second every 5-6 seconds.
Do you have any idea what i could do?
I tried pressing the power button and power+volume down, but nothing seems to work..
So i was playing with and i pressed the power button for 20 seconds and it came back to it's initial state. CLOSED

Factory reset is broken when rooted...simply flash your stock image
Cheers
hello
i fear i may have f##cked my phone and am panicking!
i installed a custom rom and the installation seemed to go well but aftetr when i rebooted it seemed to stay on the loading screen for ever even after multiple reboot attempts. anyway i messed around with it (not remembering what i done) and everytime i boot after it shows the s7 edge text it immediately loads a red screen. i have tried to get into recovery by holding home, power and vol up but again boots to red screen. i can boot into downloading mode by holding home, power, vol down.
so ive done some searching on google and it points to i need to flash stock rom with odin whilst in download mode. i got the stock rom for my model and attempting to flash but after sboot.img it fails. (screenshot attached).
please someone help!

That error means it's the wrong firmware. Flash the stock that was on it before you messed about with custom ROM.
Also please read ALL instructions when flashing custom ROMs, some take 15 minutes on first boot.
UPDATE
the error only happened as i wasnt flashing the very latest stock rom. downloaded from samsung website and now is working fine
phew
Hi, I don't know what is happening, but I've been having issues with my phone. I was trying to enter recovery and pressed the button combination for fastboot instead. After that, I tried to get out of fastboot, but it kept going back to fastboot. I noticed holding up for a couple of seconds would boot me into my OS. When I try to enter recovery, the screen goes black and it restarts the phone. It will just keep going in a loop if I hold the buttons. My phone was rooted with magisk and I uninstalled to see if that would help, but it didn't.
I installed an update(I use lineage OS) out of curiosity to see if it would boot to recovery. It booted to fastboot, but after restarting and holding the recovery button combo it booted to twrp and installed the update, then restarted. Now my stupid mistake made my phone unusable. Everything is the same, except Lineage is stuck at the boot screen now. Sometimes it restarts to fastboot, but other times it stays there for possibly infinity.
I don't know what to do. All help is appreciated?
TL;DR Fixed, I think my volume down button was stuck.
Nevermind, I flashed with miflash and still had the problem, then for some reason it worked, but only once. I removed my phone from the case and found that it was booting to os. It is still kind of hard to enter the recovery. I think hitting volume up was cancelling the volume down which was stuck, or something. Now I'm pissed cause I wasted so much time on nothing
