My phone refuses to boot and after showing the initial screen that states the name and model number it won't make it to the boot animation and crashes displaying a weird screen (Random Colors) and than gets caught in a boot-loop...
Tried everything : format /system...format/boot...flashing stock....flashing custom and the problem persists in all cases.
My guess is that the memory sector got corrupted
Is there anyone who can help?
Is there a way to wipe everything off the phone a restart over ENTIRELY??
is there a method to avoid the corrupted sector maybe or am I out of luck???7
PShone boots into Download mode and Recovery normally.
I have been experiencing Random Reboots and Bootloops for quite some time and a data wipe or a reflashing of stock used to solve the problem..
Any help is appreciated...
Thanks

While I was playing with my TF700 the other day I accidentally put it upside down resulting in pressing (& holding) the power bottom & volume down .. the device restarted into "Safe Mode"
I tried to get rid of it, but apparently I did something stupid which resulting in boot logo loop (the device is stuck at the second ASUS screen and refuses to boot)
* Note my device is Unlocked & I'm running the latest CleanRom version and I am kinda' experienced user :silly:
Anyway I googled this and I tried the following steps with NO success:
- Cold boot
- Wiping caches
- I also tried to re-flash a rom
which left me only with formatting & wiping data, BUT I tried this thing and it actually worked!
From TWRP I restored my last back up (which was a bit old) But whatever, It actually worked! and I have no problems whatsoever, everything seems to run as before, I also tried to reboot the device and it's still working!
I felt I should share this info with you, it might help someone :highfive:
Hey, my phone has been playing up and generally malfunctioning lately. It seems to work fine for a day or so before freezing, and either rebooting itself or forcing me to manually reboot it using power + volume down. This seems to send it into a bootloop where it generally freezes during the Samsung animation with the pulsing squares. This sequence continues with me manually rebooting, also trying to boot to safe mode and to recovery and after various attempts, i successfully got into recovery without it freezing on the blue android.
I then decided to factory reset as a last option, having looked around on forums for solutions. However, I now do not know what to do as it seems to have frozen during the factory reset. I dont have screenshots but the script reads as follows :
dm-verity verification failed. . .
-- Wiping data. . .
Formatting /data. . .
Formatting /cache. . .
It has been on that for the past 30 minutes and so i have assumed it has frozen. I'm afraid to force another reboot in case it is accessing memory, any suggestions on what to do?
It is up to date on fully stock software, has never been rooted and i have never attempted to do so. Also only around a month old.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks
I did not try to perform a factory reset yet, but my S6 shows the same instability issues.
Random self reboots with getting stuck at the boot animation.
I furthermore cannot enter the stock recovery mode (get stuck at full cyan screen with android logo), only can access the ODIN mode atm.
Booting that device atm is a hit and miss.
(everything stock, never touched that device in the XDA way! )
Update: I had to repair my S6 as instability increased even more.
Samsung licensed repair shop exchanged the mainboard of my S6.
All is fine again (except wireless charging, but I guess they broke it while repairing)
Hello guys!
I am encountering an issue with my Samsung Galaxy S6 G920I. The phone suddenly started to restart on its own every 30 seconds or so. After some restarts the phone started to get completely stuck in a randomly time matter, and the only way to take it out of there is by doing a hard reset (volume down + power buttons).
I tried everything. Did wipe cache and factory reset in recovery mode, flashed a new stock ROM with Odin several times but it is still doing that.
The stuck issue also happens on screens like "installing update" or "erasing", after doing the ROM flash with Odin.
Any thoughts?

Try device initialization using SamsungSmart Switch. it Should solve the problem. But that method wipes entire internal storage. So backup before you do anything,
Device initialization is something like resetting it to factory setting by clean install of the firmware.
Hi, could you fix it ? The exact same thing happened to me. I was using stock firmware (I never rooted it or anything) and it suddenly began to reboot by itself. It can be stuck in a bootloop for 2 straight days and then suddenly boot normally and use it for a couple hours until it starts bootlooping again. After a month of having this issues I decided to flash stock 7.0 firmware with ODIN and also with Smart Switch but after succesfully applying the update the phone reboots with the "installing system update" screen and then it gets to 32% and it says "erasing" after which it starts the bootloop once again. I'm stuck with a $500 paperweight. I'm afraid it could be something with the motherboard any help is greatly appreciated!

just personal message me
Hello again Xda community I really need some advice here because I'm unfortunately having problems with my phone at first it was a problem with it randomly crashing. In order to address that problem I did the following things - I prevented all apps from running in the background, I set several apps to run on the low data usage setting, and I even cleared the SIM toolkit cache as well as the individual caches of apps that I regularly use but for some reason my phone was still crashing. After installing the latest update my phone was stuck in a boot loop, it's stopped doing that, but it's now stuck on the Samsung galaxy logo screen.
You may have to flash your phone with Odin to fix the issue if you're stuck on boot loop and can't get pass it.

Well, I've managed to turn my phone on again by pressing the power button and the up button, but I'm still having the problem in regards to my phone constantly crashing. One thing that I forgot to mention in my original post is the fact I also removed a large number of files which I was no longer using. I backed these files up by transferring them to my external hard drive even after doing that my phone was still crashing from time to time.
I'm not 100% sure, but It might have something to do with all of the data being kept in my internal storage instead of my SD card which isn't recognised.
Running AOSP Exstended 8.1.0 while seemingly normal use (in actual fact data stopped working, so I reset the phone to solve that issue).
It then proceeded to reboot loop a few seconds after it gets to the lockscreen. I'm not sure if it's related to the data partition, but it seemed to be the culprit, since wiping caches from TWRP or re-flashing the system.
I did end up making a backup of said partition and then wiping it, but I'd like to recover everything from data if possible (maybe flash it back later and fix it somehow?).
Can anyone recommend any specific steps?
I've never encountered the particular issue of it rebooting only after the lockscreen (regular boot loops in my experience are the boot logo).
I haven't been able to find anything useful on google though I did find a lockscreen reboot case on XDA that was unsolved.
Thanks in advance!
It happened again today.
Does nobody have any similar experiences? Would anyone know if it's the phone itself causing this issue or would it be tied to the ROM?
