Problem Booting Note 10.1 n8013

Hello All,
I'm kinda stuck here and I think I have read and tried everything. Wondering if this thing is bricked. Signs tell me know, but don't know what else to do. Anyway here is some info. My note n8013 has a Redemption rom which I have had for a couple of months with no problems. Sorry don't remember the version. Either way I come home one day and its stuck on the boot animation screen. So i reboot it and it has the normal samsung boot screen, then it gets to the rom animation screen and gets stuck again. I cannot get pass this screen at all. Next I try to boot into TWRP so that I can restore to a previous backup. As I hold the power and volume up and reboot I then let go on power and keep holding volume up, then I get to see the TWRP logo, it disappears and reboots. So I am unable to get into TWRP. So then I go into download mode which seems to get there fine, but no matter what I try to flash with odin it fails. I have the same version odin v1.85 and drivers I had when I first started messing with this. I then try all the new versions still no go. I have tried to get the latest TWRP and CWM with odin. Nothing. I have also tried a compatible rom and nothing. Many thanks in advance.

By any chance are you using Windows 8 with Odin? I've heard there could be problems with W8...

Sorry I forgot to mention what version of windows. I am using Windows 7 SP1 64bit. I am just wondering why I cannot load TWRP direct from my Note anymore. Like I said it shows up and disappears. I have backups I made from that, just cannot get back to restore it.

Did you try to do a factory reset in TWRP and or clear the cache?
Then try to reload factory ROM in Oden.

I think it makes sense for me to brick this some how and maybe get a warranty swap. I've only had this since Oct 2012. I cannot give it to them like this when they see the animation of a custom rom. I've never had an issue with any device till this. Driving me crazy :silly:

Try flash a different recovery is about all left.
Possible likewise flash just a kernel.

Man I tried everything I can think of. It may just be a hardware issue. I called for samsung support and they sent me a shipping label. Hope I can get the warranty with this custom rom animation. they will also see the twrp logo when trying to go to recovery. Makes me nervous about sending it in.

Have you tried installing a new copy of TWRP or CWM in Oden?
I have seen were people have issues starting after TWRP or CWM recovery, they say to make sure that you have un-check "disable Auto Reboot" in Oden.
there is a tutorial here that explains it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2102677

GT-P5113 Bricked After Firmware Update?

I apologize if the easy and simple fix to this issue has already been posted, but so far, I've read so many different "solutions"...none of wwhich has worked.
Yesterday, I accepted an OTA update, after which my tablet never booted up again. It will partially boot up, but will get "stuck" on the glowing Samsung logo. It will not proceed any further, and will just sit there on the logo until the battery wears out.
I've been able to get it to the menu to wipe data, etc (holding down the power button and volume up), which I DID, only to have the tablet reboot to the glowing logo and sit there yet again.
I don't know what to do. It doesn't sound like Samsung has a fix for this software problem? Or is there really something wrong with my tablet that I'd have to send it in? Sounds like others who have done this have received their tablets back, "fixed", only to have the same thing happen again when they did the OTA update, OR if they did the update through Kies.
I'm a newbie. I'm not a techie. If there IS a fix for this, can you give me STEP-BY-STEP instructions on what to do? AS if you are talking to a child? haha...thank you so much! I'm SO upset...my tablet was beautiful, and now it's just dead...

And exactly HOW do I "reboot into recovery"? Everytime I push power plus the volume up button, I get to a warning screen that says something about "warning, you are about to change the OS...continue or cancel" I cant get past this to even GET to the menu of "reboot", "wipe data", etc.
HELP!
(Thanks for responding!)

Alright...I did get it into recovery mode, I factory reset it, then hit wipe cache partition. It started the process, THEN I saw "ERROR" flash quickly up on the screen. Then it began to boot up again, and here I am, STUCK ON THE GLOWING LOGO AGAIN.
This didnt work. Anybody else have a different suggestion?

Galaxy S6 bootloop

Hey experts so i have the S6 gm-920F i updated OTA and now the phone doesnt recognize the fingerprint and forgot the password so i install TWRP 3 via odin booted the recovery and transferred my data successfully then I made a factory reset to delete the passcode to be able to use the phone after making the reset and pressing reboot system it gets stuck in the recovery the system doesn't reboot so i tried hard rebooting the phone is stuck on black screen that says samsung galaxy s6 and restarts restarts restarts (bootloop) i tried reflash the 6.0.1 bootloader no luck then flash 5.1 bootloader flashed philz recovery then 6.0.1 bootloader still nothing! Did i damage something serious ? does a fresh firmware install through odin bring my phone back to life ? Thanks in advance

Please try a fresh install of Firmware. Install MM bootloader and modem first with TWRP MM compatible recovery and download an extra lite MM rom to see if your phone will come back to life, (using extra lite package is less of a download than a stock 2gb download)

TWRP is what gave me the problem once i enter i can exit from there ! i got the stock firmware tried to flash using odin then get fail! please can you give a noob some simple instructions with links ?

Hi mate, Try flashing through ODIN a TAR image for your phone version. You can find a TAR on a website such as sammobile. Once you have download the tar put your phone into download mode by pressing and holding Volume Down, Home and Power keys at the same time. Start ODIN and connect the phone to your computer, click AP and browse and find the TAR file you downloaded. Then click start and it should flash back stock firmware for your phone.

I can't promise that you haven't, however it is extremely hard to hard brick a phone these days. There are many ways to try and restore it to previous condition not all of which I am familiar with, if this doesn't solve your problem keep scouring XDA for an answer, undoutably a more skilled dev will be able to help you

Bootloop problem with new EMUI update

Hello, last night i received the message that my phone needed to update itself to the new firmware so i did that.
When the phone rebooted it just put me onto a black screen with the twrp logo flashing every 5 seconds, i figured out that it was because of me running an old version of twrp and i
flashed it and rebooted and everything worked great but then i tried to root my phone with supersu and the phone switched logo in the boot from the honor logo to the android logo and froze there,
i managed to fix that aswell. Now to the problem i am facing right now, the phone got similar problems again so i attempted a normal factory reset, didn't help so i tried to format data and it removed everything but i am still stuck at the infinite booting loop when i start my phone. Does anyone know how to fix this? I do not have the money to purchase a new one

I have access to adb and twrp just so you know.

When i press the volume up + down and power button it brings me to twrp, i can't manage to get into erecovery mode.

Nvm i got in. However when i get into the mode and press the recovery button it spins until it displays this message "Getting package info failed". Do i have to do it through erecovery?

I do not know another method.

Bootloop after succesful odin flash.

Hello,
I tried flashing TWRP recovery with Odin. Everything went fine, Odin said "PASS". But when I tried to get into TWRP right after the flashing was completed, my device got stuck on the booting screen where it just says "Samsung galaxy s8 plus - powered by android"
If I hold down the power button, nothing happens. I've held it down for longer than a minute and still nothing happened.
If I hold down the power button, bixby button and volume up, nothing happens.
If I hold down the power button, bixby button and volume down, the device seems to be rebooting but still gets stuck on booting screen.
What can I do to fix this? I'm getting quite desperate..

I previously flashed TWRP along with stuff like magisk manager.
All I did was flash a newer version of TWRP after having resetted my device.

Which EXACT Model and version of phone do you have? Do you know which build number it was? I'm just trying to get more info so we can help.

I was asleep, sorry.
Anyways, it's the G955F, unlocked Galaxy S8+ from the Netherlands. By build number, do you mean the OS version? If so, it was the latest november security patch (I don't know the exact number). If you mean the TWRP version, that was 3.1.1-2.

I actually already started a download halfway through yesterday and that just finished. I did that method that you linkedin the video, which worked like a charm. I then flashed the latest firmware and everything worked fine! However, halfway through the "Starting android.." screen, the battery died..
