Samsung exhibit II stock on splash screen...

Allright, lets see if someone can help me on this. I have this samsung exhibit II that stopped working for no reason as far as i know. Phone wasnt rooted or anything like that. The issue is that it will boot to the splash screen but thats it. I tried to flash it with Odin multidownloader 4.43 and it worked perfectly. No errors or anything weird. Funny thing is that when it finishes it will not reboot. Just stays off. And if i try to power it on it will boot until splash screens comes up, splash screen stays there for a while and then it shuts down itself. I can reach download mode as many times i want, but it wont boot into recovery also. Hardware issue? Maybe something wrong with the bootloader? Help please....

Boot Problems

My sister said she spilled a little water on the screen of her phone the other day and it started boot looping.
Ive been trying to reflash it, but there are some issues...
If the phone is plugged in, it will cycle the charging battery on and off... unable to get into download or recovery.
If its not, it used to show the galaxy boot screen and turn on and off... now it just stays frozen on that screen. In either instance i was unable to get into recovery or download mode.
I got into recovery a couple of times when it actually booted the ROM, but everytime i would use the power button to try to make a selection the phone would just reboot and go into a cycle again.
I also got it into download mode once through the ROM but it cant get the ROM to boot anymore...
I might be able to get it into recovery but when i do it just reboots when i select anything.
and help would be awesome
thanks.
OH, when i actually got the ROM to boot it would throw an array of system errors and force closes. I also think the water had nothing to do with it and something she did after the water is what started causing the problems

I got recovery and i flashed a new kernal and ROM and erased everything and its still freezing at first Galaxy boot screen.

probably because the phone is water damaged?

See if the guide in the second link of my signature will help.

Thanks ill give it a shot.
But a major problem is that i am unable to get it to boot into download mode.
So i got CWM to boot, and i reflashed the kernal and ROM, with no luck.
CWM read catch error. Unable to mount... format... ect...
From what ive been reading the internal catch is fried....

Anyone have a motherboard they want to ship me? LOL :laugh:

Thanks lumin30, I finally found a way to get the phone into download mode. (take the battery out, Put it back in, hold buttons, plug USB in, press power button) after a few reboots it would finally go.
I followed the link and got it back to stock and it booted. Now letting it sit to settle in and hopefully it will be functional again.
This thread can be deleted! :good:

Samsung Galaxy S6 (sprint variant) failed firmware flash FAC LOCK

Let me start by addressing I know this isn't the sprint thread but there's a lot more development here which equals more help. Plus this issue seems to be able to happen to any variant.
Second, this isn't my device I'm trying to see if it can be fixed for a friend. I'm not that familiar with Samsung devices but I have been able to get them working in the past via Odin or kies but this time I need some help.
So this is what's going on, my friend recently rooted his S6(SM-920P) not sure which method he used (don't think it matters at this stage) and was on stock rom (LP5.0.2) with xposed framework installed. He hadn't changed the kernel AFAIK oh but I did install TWRP for him and everything was working. Long story short he woke up a couple days ago to his phone being unable to turn back on. I told him how to get to download mode and I asked him what did it say on the top left corner it said something like "system binary not SEandroid locked" underneath that it said fac lock
So I had him give me the phone thinking somehow it did a OTA update while he was asleep or something either way I was confident using Odin to flash the firmware would solve the issue. Had the firmware finished flashing I'm confident it would have but halfway through Odin simply froze on installing system. I figured its just gonna take a while 45 mins later it was still stuck at the same spot.
Not really thinking about it I figured I will just reboot the phone back into download mode restart the process it should be fine. Not a good idea. Now all I get is a green screen saying to access the smart switch emergency recovery system. But it gets better.
My computer isn't recognizing the device now. I installed smart switch software and it's not recognizing it. I even installed Kies and it's not recognizing either.
Is his phone toast or what? I tried emergency system recovery but I need the S/N of his phone to possibly get this thing working again, but it boot into anything anymore except the screen that says Samsung switch...
PLEASE HELP ME if it's bricked it's bricked I get that but if there's a way to figure out what to do I'm all ears. Thanks in advance

Samsung Galaxy Indulge stuck in boot loop

I got ahold of an old phone and it was working fine until I attempted to connect it to my PC. It wouldn't even react, and my roommate (who gave it to me) took out the battery, which then caused this endless bootloop. If it's on the charger, it keeps blinking the battery (which looks empty and has the spinning circle in it), and if it's off, it just keeps blinking the Samsung logo. I can boot it into recovery and wipe (because it doesn't bootloop there for some reason), and it will boot into Android (sometimes) and then immediately bootloop all over again. I have attempted to Odin a stock ROM to it but it doesn't stay in downloader mode long enough. It just bootloops again. I can't even root this damned thing. Help!

Solved it. Don't know why, but it did NOT like the SD card I put in it. Would only work in recovery. Finally rooted and flashed Basix. Yay!

Maybe there is a hardware problem i.e. your phone's power button has stuck from inside (not the plastic button but the inside buuton).Try fixing that.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And how am I supposed to do that?
Great, I'm back where I started. A bootlooping paperweight. Now I can't even get it to boot into recovery. ****ing piece of ****.

If you cannot enter Download mode, it is most likely dead. I never managed to get my phone back if it could not enter the Download mode ?️.

phone had custom blocker inside, so flashed it with 'simple factory setting apk,
but now phone isn't going into download mode..
