Hi, I have a Galaxy S4 I9500 and I'm using GEAR CM13
The ROM was working fine until a while ago, but now suddenly there's a bootloop. Last thing I remember doing was accidentally holding the power button a bit long (while trying to lock the phone) so the power off/reboot menu came up and and then I tried to exit from it, but the menu didn't go away and the phone entered into a boot loop
Now, the Samsung i9500 logo just keeps flashing every 5 seconds. I'm unable to enter into recovery mode. I can enter download mode but it just exits out of that after 5 seconds and starts flashing i9500 logo again. I read about a hack to remove battery as soon as I enter download mode and it worked. It stays on download mode now. ODIN recognizes the device. What can I do using ODIN to fix the bootloop? Is there any ODIN flashable zip? I'm on the latest [20160711] build. I have important data in my device. Please help me recover it
I know I can reflash stock ROM and from there, reflash GearCM13 but I do not want to lose data as much as possible. I'm trying for fixes which do not wipe my data partition. I will go ahead with the standard method if I do not find a fix to recover from bootloop without losing data.

Hi
I cannot get my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus (GT-P6200) to boot in recovery mode.
I tried the following:
1) Switch off the Tab.
2) Press the Power + Volume Up buttons simultaneously until I see the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus" screen, then release the Power button and keep pressing the Volume Up button. The tab then get's stuck on the Samsung screen, even if I release the Volume Up button. It stays on this screen indefinitely, only option is to reboot by keeping the power button pressed for 5 seconds.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!
same issue
I am having the same issue as well. My tab gets stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus" screen and does not move on from that. When i try to boot in recovery mode the screen is just black and slightly illuminated. Please help

Same problem
any help ???
On which verison thar ur on???? have u tried to wiping data in stock recovery
??
same problem I'm having with my Samsung Gt-p6200, it just boot-loops to the "samsung galaxy tab 7.0" boot loading screen and hangs.. these happened after i flashed my firmware from stock honeycomb to jellybean(the austria firmware, i think that's been posted in this forum).
here's what happened before the problem:
-I flash the stock honeycomb firmware with the jellybean one that i found here..
-after i flashed using ODIN, the new firmware works great, i was even informed that i have free 50GB worth of dropbox space,
the file was named P6200XXMC3_P6200OXAMC3_ATO
- I have used it for a day, until the battery drains and i have to charge, but when i opened it again, it already does this "boot loop" problem
- i have tried flashing CWM with ODIN(as i've read here somewhere that it might help) and do that wipe cache and factory reset thing but that didnt help solved the problem.
hope anyone could help me, im also thinking flashing it back to it's original stock firmware but I dont have a backup of that and I dont know where to get one, I've been searching the net for two days for that stock rom but all i found are the new jellybean ones and some old ones but is uploaded to hotfile which is now deleted or locked.
I hope you guys could help me out and thanks in advance!

Hello guys! Im also having this same issue.
*Using the same firmware that was posted here in xda because i was having trouble downloading those official jellybean firmwares
*The battery got drained
then if i charge it, it will remain in a "blank slightly illuminated screen"
* after a few munutes, the tab gets really warm.
*but if i dont charge it, it will get drained again because it keeps on turning on itself back to this time to the "galaxy tab plus screen"
I cant access recovery mode.
I can access odin mode and can flash successfully with cwm or the same firmware back but the problem still persist.
I havent tried other firmwares though.
4 days passed already and i cant figure this out
Please help
So I had this happen to me yesterday, where it rebooted randomly on me, only to freeze on the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus screen. I had custom recovery (TWRP) don't know if that matters, but I was able to access it by holding Power+UpVol but keep it held. It would freeze on the same spot but since I was still holding the keys it reboots a second time and this time it would go into recovery.
I then wipes cache and dalvik, no go. Sadly did a full wipe. Still no going past the tab plus text. So I flash MF1 official 4.1.2 firmware (I was previously on 4.1.2 UK official) still no go. Put in latest 2.8 TWRP and booted into it still with some trouble as I mentioned above. Did another wipe and it then hung on blank screen or so I thought. Took a long time to boot and after a long time, and the Android is upgrading message, by some weird chance I was on the MF1 official rom but all my apps settings everything was saved.
Working 100% now and I still don't really know what the hell happened. But if this helps anyone then all the better!

i think the fastest and easiest way to solve this is to flash stock rom using odin since you can get into dl mode.

The problem is i don't have my laptop with me. Is there any way to restore it via sdcard,or anything else,if not,will have to go to samsung service center,if it's the last choice.
Your idea of backing up on other core may be able to work, however, your bricked core needs to have cwm installed to restore the backup on which I am still not sure if it will work. The real quickest way to fix that is to flash the stock rom.
Sent from my GT-I8262 using xda app-developers app
It was under warranty and was showing official status. Gave it to samsung service centre. Thanks to all for their sincere help.
Product Name: SM-G930A (Galaxy S7)
Carrier: AT&T
I am unable to get into recovery mode to wipe the cache and do a factory reset.
By pressing the key combination (Home + VolUp + Power), I am able to trigger the message "Recovery Boot....", however right after that instead of going into Recovery Mode it immediately restarts back to the splash screen and loops.
(Buttons do not appear to be stuck)
I can get into download mode. I have tried using Odin to reflash the rom using the rom I used before. However, this doesn't change the experience I described above. I have let the phone die out completely and powered on to the same experience. I am unable to remove the battery on the Galaxy S7. The phone is rooted. I did have on Xprivacy and Xposed. I was also working with SetCPU and other apps to improve the speed the night before. I was under the impression though that I can always wipe the whole thing clean and start again.
Please help me out of this loop.

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
Hello XDA,
I have a Samsung S10e - (SM-G970W) from Rogers Canada.
Just this past weekend as I was using it, it just froze. None of the buttons worked. I pressed on the Power Key until the phone restarted. However it just loads to the "SAMSUNG Galaxy S10e - Secured by Knox Powered by Andriod" screen and keeps bootlooping every 10 seconds back to the same screen.
I've tried to get into recovery mode (holding Volume UP, Bixby and then Power) but it takes me to a screen which says Watchdog Reset (CPU Hang) with no options for cache wipe or factory reset.
I've also downloaded Odin and the latest firmware version for this phone with Rogers and did a successful firmware flash using Download Mode (Volume Down + Bixby), however after the flash it just goes back into the same bootloop. I've tried flashing multiple times with both the Home_CSC and the other CSC file but both gave the same results.
What else can I do to try and recover this phone?
TIA
The latest firmware may be a problem. You have to use exactly the correct firmware that you had when you put the other OS in it.
It is also possible that you installed the wrong OS. I have the official LineageOS 19.1 which is only for SM-G970F/DS and you have SM-G970W.
