I have tried to flash the new Polish 5.0.1 firmware (I9515XXU1BOC3_I9515OXA1BOC3_XEO) to my I9515, but after few odin versions and many hard resets i couldnt get past the bootloop.
Now i am trying to get back to my original firmware (I9515XXU1ANI3_I9515OXX1ANK1_SEB) , which worked flawlessly before, but i can't get pass the bootloop on this one too!
I've had this problem with bootloop before, but i can't remember how i got it fixed, wiping data and cache doesn't work.
I have used odin 3.09, 3.10, 3.10.5, 3.07 and have same results.
Any ideas?
Aaaand of course i found what i did wrong, just a stupid, obvious mistake. I flashed using CP not AP -.-

i have not used my phone in any wrong way. i did not install a custom rom or anything. no root. randomly in my evedy day normal usage of my phone, it started to restart. and the the problem got worse and worse. for a few minutes, i will be able to use my phone but then my phone will restart and be stuck restarting. most of the times i cant even go into recovery mode. it restarts again when i get to that. i already reseted my phone, and i wiped the partition.
i have a samsung galaxy s6 SM-G920W8 telus/koodo 32 gb. i got the battery replaced by samsung but that didnt work. i noticed that after a few hours, my phone stops restarting when it reaches to 10% battery life.
WHAT DO I DO?? YOU GUYS ARE THE PHONE EXPERTS!!
You might want to try re-flashing the firmware. If that doesn't fix it, then you probably have a faulty device.
i tried reflashing but now i got "there has been an error updating the softawre. please use smart switch to recover" or something like that. and my phone is not supported by smart switch..... and when ever i try using odin, i always get NAND write error.i have a telus locked phone, 5.0.2 or 5.1.1 firmware. it is the latest odin and i have the drivers and i tried several solutions but that didnt help with the NAND write error.

Have you tried the original LATEST firmware from SamMobile? Using the original cable? The latest version of Odin?

latest telus/koodo version i can find for my galaxy s6 SM-G920w8 is 5.0.2. i only use my origional usb cable. i always get nand write error. my version is 3.10.7 of odin.
phone: SM-G920WZKATLS
locked to: telus/koodo
firmware: 5.0.2
i tried a 5.1.1 update too but that didnt work. i tried a rogers one but i still got nand write failure. on my s6, it says "
system rev. check fail device: 2 binary 1"
Ok...make sure you enable developer options...and enable OEM unlock....also go to security settings and make sure Reactivation lock is disabled or unchecked. ..then try flashing the firmware and it should go through just fine

i managed to flash a rogers firmware using the samfirm software but my phone is still restarting multiple times
My sister had a Galaxy S4 that would randomly reboot once in a while. Over time it became more frequent until it would barely finish booting before it would restart. Eventually it stopped turning on altogether.
Before it died completely, I tried different firmware versions and three different batteries and no change. I even took out the motherboard and put it in another S4 and it still wouldn't boot. Put the other S4's motherboard into the broken phone and it worked just fine. So it was something on the motherboard that died.
Sounds like a similar issue with your S6. Fact is, if a full wipe and firmware flash doesn't fix it, it's a hardware issue and there's nothing we can do.
Hi,
i got my s6 about a month or two ago, became it from a friend so it was not new and it already had stock 6.0.1 installed.
It worked fine till a week ago or something, then it suddenly started freezing (till either the battery goes out, or i put it out manually with lower+power button) or directly restarting.
At first it happened about one time a day and i din't really wonder, it was rooted, had xposed, u know the instability...
But from day to day it became more frequent until it was about every 10 minutes.
so what troubleshooting have i done till now:
factory reset. It got better and less frequent, but it still happened. After about one day it was at the 10 Minute frequency back.
completely wiped it (twrp) flashed stock 6.0.1 w/ odin. Same result as factory reset
installed xtrestolite. Same result.
Looked if the Problem was a Hardware fault. tried stress testing the GPU the CPU and the RAM. None of these freezed/resarted the phone.
installed another Kernel. Same result
tried to flash stock 5.1.1 w/ odin. Odin gave me an sboot.bin error, excluded the sbin from rom. Odin gave me an CM.bin error., excluded Cm.bin from ROM. Odin gave me no Error, Phone bootlooped at Samsung Galaxy s6 screen.
Tried various variations of 5.1.1 and 6.01 stock roms mixed up. (CM.bin and sboot.bin from 6.0.1, rest from 5.1.1,...) always leading to either bootloop at Samsung screen or Phone force crashing.
I do believe it's a Software fault, as it does work normally for a day or something when factory reset, but as I tried about 1000 things, i'm not sure anymore.
By now I really don't have any more ideas but some questions:
Why can't i flash stock 5.1.1? I'm 100% sure i tried the right csc and BTU.
Is there any custom ROM i could try? The next thing i'll try is flashing CM13, just to try if it force crashes. If it does not it still sucks cos its unstable af.
Are there other non-touchwiz-based ROMs?
Biiig thanks in advance, any help is appreciated. :angel:
Edit: when I try to flash 5.1.1 it also gives me an error on the phone in Download Mode: SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 4 BINARY: 1
Anyone has an Idea what that means?
Edit2: Sometimes when it freezes, the red led is lighting (also till no battery or i manually put it out), By now i'm not sure if it just freezes too (already lighting when the freeze happens) or if it is additional to the freeze.

Yea man I would assume this is the only quick fix for this issue tbh.
I'm on cm13 and it's definitely gotta be an issue in Xposed hooks and power switches, because I've seen it happen with Kernel Auditor the cores just FLY thru the roof at bootup, full on max mode, then it reboots lol, and every single time, I was just done either
1; rebooting thru my xposed power menu,
2; rebooting thru the "reboot to system" option thru TWRP,
But man I got SeLinux Enforcing on an AOSP build right now, + other craziness, and my knox counter still tells me im on official binaries haha!
Hi guys,
I got exactly the same problem on an SM-G920F, i already try what @jaannnis do even re-partition on ODIN, im not rooted, not xposed all stock firmeware, i tried 7.0 and 6.0.1 over odin and over smart switch, that work for 12 hours and back to freeze every 10mn.
Im wondering its a batterie problem, or charging circuit issue...
Someone got a solution
Thx in advance
Hello All,
This may seem like a regular problem but it's not.
I own a Galaxy note edge N915G - Indian model. not rooted even once.
This morning when I reset my phone and I was reinstalling the apps, my phone was working fine, but when I initialized WhatsApp my phone went into BOOTLOOP.
I tried installing the official latest firmware from sam mobile N915GXXU1DPK6_N915GODD1DPK3_INS for my phone using Odin 3.10.6.
Also, factory reset and cache cleared after flashing the stock rom,
But I still don't have any luck in clearing the boot loop.
As my phone is not rooted I don't know what else to do.
I tried with Odin 3.12.5 too. but no luck.
I also tried the firmware N915GXXU1DPK6_N915GODD1DPK3_INU from sam mobile but it is still stuck in the bootloop.
I can go in the recovery and the download mode but cannot get it fired up.
I have nowhere to go as the phone is out of warranty just this month.
Is there any other solution for this or something I have to do differently?
Please help me as I am out of my country now and I have no phone to use other than this.
I recently tried to install android 10 (PixelExperience) on my Samsung Galaxy S7 through this guide : wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/hero2lte/install/. It worked fine for about 15 hours or so, and then it randomely stopped working. (it crashed and would not boot) I could not get past the Samsung Galaxy S7 logo before it would crash and reboot. I tried to reinstall the stock OS, bootloader and recovery, and the recovery works, except for now it wont boot anything (be it the pixelexperence rom, or the stock rom...)
I even tried to load a twrp backup that I took before I changed anything, and it did not work (it had dissapeared)
When I try to do the format option from the recovery, it does nothing.
Does anyone have anything else I can try??
EDIT : Just as I posted this, it randomely worked. All I did this time was 1. Flashed the stock (AP, BL, CP, and CSC) using ODIN, then I flashed TWRP using ODIN, then I flashed the pixelexperience rom via adb sideload.
Now I have a new question. What was happening, and why did this work (I did almost the same thing before) and why did the problem happen in the first place??
EDIT : I still found a problem. The phone works fine in the pixel OS, but it does not see any wifi or bluetooth networks. I tried to reinstall the CP modem driver thing, but it did nothing. It was working earlier though.

You need to ask any questions about a custom ROM on the ROM thread it self so the DEV can answer you.
Why is it happening? Don't know could be a million things. ask the Dev.
Hi! I recieved this Samsung that is showing Samsung logo a few seconds and it's restarting nonstop. I tried to flash the stock rom a few times via odin, and the problem perstists. I tried to clear cache and data after flashing a few times too, and nothing. I tought maybe I downloaded a firmware with wrong csc. I don't know exactly what csc it has, and I don't know I can find csc checking the IMEI. Some advices? Thank you.
