Hi, I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy Core 2 (SM-G355H). I tried to install the official firmware for this model that I get from SamMobile by using Odin, and everything went good, no "failed" and it was showed PASS as it should. But then when I tried to reboot it, it just didnt reboot. Now I can enter to download mode, but not into recovery mode or just start it normally. Are there any possible solutions? I would really appreciate any help.
stock recovery not working tried twice
cwm not working it just shows open android chest sign but no options in recovery menu.
odin passed stock recovery
but phone turns on till EULA and all process failed eg. googlemaps failed, systemprocess.com failed, android process failed everything just fails.
need help
Hi,
You are taking the right steps. I would create a thread here and ask for help from the experts who own your device, http://forum.xda-developers.com/t/galaxy-core-2

Greetings;
Tonight, my friend and i wanted to root her phone... (Samsung Galaxy S2)
Unfortunately, not everything went as planed..
Files downloaded: Odin, SuperSU rooting, cm-11-20141119-NIGHTLY-i9100 and google apps and kernel..
First, we flashed kernel via Odin..then installed SuperSU from the recovery...Then the installation for Cyanogenmod11 failed...After that, the phone would not turn on..
Then, we downloaded firmware of the S2...flashed it via Odin..it stoped at 90-95% (or something like that)..and it said FAILED..
Then she turned off her phone..and the error appeared..“Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again“.
..She couldn't get pass that message..She turned of her phone, got the battery out for 10 sec.. She cant enter the download mode nor the recovery mode..
Please..i beg you for some help.. ..I would hope that this resolves with a successful fix..i wouldnt want to be responsible for anyone's phone nor do i wish to see her disappointed...
Thanks in advance
Cheers

Hello everyone, and thanks for taking the time to attempt to help me.
Earlier today, my T-Mobile Galaxy S5 updated to 5.1.1. I searched google and came across a few links on how to root my phone (G900T) - The one I ended up using was CF-AutoRoot
I used Odin 3.07, used the tar5 file from that site above where I downloaded the root, and attempted to root the phone. Odin says everything worked as planned ''passed'' was displayed with 0 fails. I waited about 20 minutes, but my phone never rebooted, it was stuck in a boot logo loop ' 'Samsung Galaxy S5 powered by Android'' or ''T-Mobile'' was displayed.
I tried going into recovery and reseting all data / factory wipe but that didn't help, and made it even worse. Now my phone says this when I try to turn it on: ''Firmware upgrade encountered an issue, Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again''
How do I go about getting back to stock firmware , that is rootable, so I can then proceed to install CyanogenMod?
EDIT: I used Kies and was able to get back to stock firmware and the phone turns on.
Can anyone recommend a reliable root for the G900T S5?

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
It's good to hear that you managed to revive your phone. Many of us find it convenient to install a custom recovery such as TWRP which makes backing up and restoring, switching ROMs, and many such activities much easier. XDA happens to have an active and friendly area dedicated to the Samsung Galaxy S5, and specifically to the T-Mobile version at http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5. I suggest you search that area or simply post your question in the Q&A forum there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/help where our experts will be most likely to be able to guide you.
First my phone was rooted before this but I tried to install XPOSED but it didint work it had me doing a bootloop so i thought about wiping my phone and didint think my OS would get erased now my phone just stays at the SAMSUNG GALAXY S6 screen I installed TWRP but no luck there people told me to install that but no luck I hope I can get some help ive tried to install stock firmware with odin but it keeps saying FAIL please help!

Here are official firmwares for your device. Boot your device into download mode and connect your phone, it should show up in Odin, then select the file you downloaded from sammobile and flash it from there. If you get any errors, please post the log here and I'll take a look at it.
Hello there, I am already more than 3 days trying to download stock firmware for my phone, every day another problem, on the beginning it was always fail while trying with Odin, then I was try another firmware it was downloaded but stucked on update 32%.i understand it can be wrong firmware, I tried other methods, I was add pit for Samsung galaxy s6 edge G925F. Downloaded but didn't help, I tried another firmware for other region it was downloaded, even no fail, but stucked on erasing. I tried recovery mode (volume up-home-power) cant access it. Today I try again, all the time stuck on Initialization.
Note I tried different Odin version.
USB on laptop there's two, 2.0 and 3.0(blue)
The time it was succeed without fail it was on the black USB 2.0
So now even completely can't start to download firmware.
Also I was try to download Twrp after it was nearly succeeded and stucked on erasing, hoping that I can access recovery mode to wipe everything, but Twrp stucked on logo.
After all that I can't do nothing.
I still can access downloading mode and phone stuck on logo if I put it on the charge.
I hope I was give right and enough informations to help me solve the issue.
I appreciate any help
