Hello, I just woke up from a few hour nap and normally when I wake up I like to check my phone for notifs and what not... But, this time... I notice something different. I am presented with a screen what says
"Bootloader Exception"
Then lower down says "do_hander_sync: UNKNOWN(esr: 0x2000000)
I've tried booting into bootloader and recovery, I can get into recovery and I tried to factory reset / date wipe cache. without any luck. I can't reflash the stock rom (I was using the stock rom anyway, NO ROOT) because I can't access the kernel. Is there anyway to fix this or do I need to get a replacement some how?
Did you try flashing stock Rom in download (POWER+VOL DOWN+HOME) mode with odin? Can you get into your phone to turn on developer options to enable oem unlock (exynos model) and USB debugging? When does this error occur? If kernel is not seandroid enforcing the it sounds like a corrupt file and leads me to believe you had been rooted before or had a custom recovery and flashed a .zip or altered something. More info would be great but try what I wrote in this article first by going to Sammobile and grabbing the newest correct firmware for your device model and flashing it with odin in download mode Should fix this issue and give u a fresh start. Be sure to install Samsung drivers first before proceeding with this option. Hope this helps! If not provide us with all the info you can get. Also make sure you flash with the stock (origional) Samsung USB cable.
Cheers!

Model No: SM-G930W8
Provider: Telus
Happens during normal boot (Can get into recovery menu)
I didn't try flashing or rooting the phone all (Sounds weird, but all I can ask is you people to believe me )
Trying to get stock firmware.
Sorry for the super late reply, I've tried to get the stock firmware for the phone but it corrupts the download everytime (here)... Sent it away to be repaired and was told it's $325 to fix it I said send it back broken.
ahh, I've had to fix this problem countless times on different phones.
All you have to do is go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and download the official stock firmware for your phone and model then flash it using Odin.
If you do not know how to flash phones using Odin there are plenty of tutorials online that will show you how just have a look on YouTube ect

try holding power and vol+ for at least 10 seconds, and keep holding it. or try power and volume down for 10+ seconds.
should attempt to get you into recovery or download mode.

thanks for the reply
i can go to the recovery mode and download mode..i already flash my tab in download mode and wipe data in recovery mode.but the problem still there
so what should i do?
see if you can get an adb log, you could also try Samsung Kies (2.0) It may have trouble finding device/ installing drivers; you might want to connect it in download mode. There are emergency recovery options in Kies I think, but its probably same thing as Odin. Are you sure that is the correct firmware for your device? are you familiar with Odin? possible bad flash/disconnected?/bad cable?
i recommend try flashing whatever firmware you originally had. a full stock one with .pit file would be ideal.

Try this instructions carefully. It works for any samsung phones:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27043121&postcount=9
but in step 3, when it says if you weren't in GB, don't worry about it. What it is, if you change version of android (i.e. from Honeycomb to ICS and vice versa), than you need to include pitfile and repartition, as well as flashing dbdata.rfs.
Thanks buddy
I will try as u suggested
and will come back soon after flashing
thanks
still same problem please help
i tried flashing as u suggested and successfully compleated but still restarting only 1 thing improved that is now am able to switch off my tab
please guys help me dnt wanna loose my tab
and 1 more thing in odeen, where i can put dbdata file
please help
You can flash dbdata on pda field as well. Make sure you use the correct file. Before you proceed with it, can you go to recovery mode and do factory wipe? Let me know if you got any mounting error message or not after wipe.
Nore: if you need a pitfile, you can download this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/misc.php?do=showattachments&t=1441350
Any solution yet? My device suddenly acting the same way when I doing Factory Reset in cmw recovery. I've try doing reflashing via odin to xxkl7 and dxkl3 with no lock, im still stuck bootlooping on first splash screen.
Something I found is that if Im flashing the rom using heimdall, it always failed on flashing the cache, with a message saying that heimdall being crash. Any advice?
continue holding vol up and power through 2 reboots, you should get recovery mode.
My device also experiences similar symptoms when formating /data. Perhaps the file system is corrupt or mild superbrickbug.
Anyways what I usually do Is Odin back to stock, when it passes it hangs at boot, reboot to recovery and factory reset/ wipe data. Should boot now.
For /cache issue. try the first step I mentioned to get into recovery and wipe /cache, actually format it too, if you have CWM Recovery. Wipe dalvik and factory reset too. Then I would try Odin to stock. And again wipe /data if stock Odin doesnt boot.
good luck.
Phone specs:
Samsung Galaxy S3 Verizon SCH-i535
It was already running KitKat 4.4.2 before I rooted
This is my first time rooting and flashing ROMs to my Samsung Galaxy s3 and I have bricked it. I'm pretty sure it can be salvaged but have yet to find anything that works.
I have written the long version for those who need it, but the short version is that I screwed up and can no longer boot into recovery mode or normal mode, I'm not even sure if Download mode is working, and my device isn't recognized by Kies or Odin on my PC so I cannot yet do a recovery from there.
As of now my phone only boots into Odin Mode (NO recovery, NO normal boot, device NOT recognized by computer programs like Kies and Odin) and gives the following info:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SCH-I535
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
SYSTEM STATUS: OFFICIAL
QUALCOM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 2
and displays the yellow triangle error and says: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please use Software repair Assistant & try again.
I tried to use Samsung Kies which has an emergency firmware tool but my device will not connect and become recognized by the program.
This is pretty much where I'm stuck.
Keep reading if you need additional info.
Steps leading up to problem:
I was able to Root the device succesfully
I then downloaded the latest CM11 package (cm-11-20140217-NIGHTLY-d2vzw.zip) and Gapps
I also downloaded the TWRP recovery img (openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-d2vzw.img)
Once I had these downloaded I got the app [ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool
I opened the app and tried to do a backup but I'm pretty sure it failed, or at least it said it failed. I couldn't find out how to check, but was not worried since I have already backed up my important files to the verizon cloud.
On the app I went to recover using other file and found the TWRP recovery img I downloaded.
From here I booted into recovery manually, but it did not bring up the TEAMWIN screen for TWRP like I've seen in other video tutorials so I rebooted into normal mode went to the Rashr app again and followed the prompt to do a Recovery boot using the TWRP img.
THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEMS BEGAN:
It began to lead into recovery mode but it gave a message that said something along the lines that I have tried installing a custom OS and to take my phone to the nearest verizon store.
I turned it off and tried to boot back normally but got the same error.
I tried to boot into Download mode and was successful! So I thought yaay!
Read a tutorial to reload a stock version of android here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2586319
I followed all the steps but when i got to 7. which said You should see your phone under ID:COM (you should also see it has been added in message) I was not seeing my phone there. I figured it may be OK since I was able to install the drivers so that meant the USB was working so I went ahead and ran Odin to recover Jelly Bean 4.3 onto the device.
My thoughts and guesses as to what the problem is:
I think that it may be because I was already running 4.4.2 and/ or didn't have the proper bootloader when I tried to do the TWRP recovery.
Am I on the right track? Thanks for any help!
You're not bricked if you can still get into Download mode. First of all the Verizon S3 on 4.3 or later has a locked bootloader - you can't install a custom recovery, and only TouchWiz based ROMs are supported using Safestrap. In order to get back up and running you need to see this thread and use the Verizon Utility, or use the Odin method with a stock 4.4.2 ROM seeing as you're on 4.4.2. However I'm surprised your computer doesn't recognize your phone, that almost sounds like more of a drivers issue than anything if your phone still gets into Odin mode. As cliche as it sounds - have you tried rebooting? It may help with a driver issue.
Help softbricked device

Follow the instructions from this post. Since you are soft bricked at the moment, you'll need to start at step 4. If you have an extSD in your phone, you might want to pull it until after you're up and running because the "Android" folder from Kitkat needs to be deleted and rebuilt for Lollipop.
That's what I tryed first but it didn't work,
First step.... flash SM-G900P_OA6_FullRestore.
(on boot i have samsung galaxy s5 screen with blue letters at the top saying recovery booting and it loops.)
sense that didn't work i tryed... SM-G900P_NI3-Full_Restore_Unrooted (Compressed Archive)
(on boot i have samsung galaxy s5 screen with blue letters at the top saying recovery booting and it loops.)
then i tryed SM-G900P_OA6_FullRestore. again but still no luck im out of ideas

Are you using the wrong terminology? You have to use Odin and a PC to install the .tar. Also, the first boot into Lollipop can take about 20 minutes. You have to be patient. I see you posting in different threads and you seem to be digging deeper into a hole.
Are you using Odin and starting by downloading (to PC) the file in step #4? Then follow the remaining steps "exactly". Re-read those instructions and if you not already downloaded the needed files, do that first.

Try this: Do a battery pull, then put the phone in Download mode, hook up to PC and then open Odin and then Odin custom recovery, either twrp or Philz. Uncheck auto reboot in odin and once it passes, pull the battery, unplug and boot into recovery. Also, you might update Odin, there's a link to Odin 3.10.0 in my post. Let's see if we can get that far and go from there.

Which recovery tar did you Odin? You pulled the battery after Odin said PASS, then unplugged the phone, put battery back in and immediately tried to get into recovery? If so, I'm stumped.

What about flashing back to an older version of android? Full tar flash.

Like ne5, and nothing else, just see if you can get stock to boot, no messing around trying to flash recovery.
This is RWillco12's NE5 stock.. Have the phone in download mode and run the .exe
Thanks TD.

I tryied ni3 already
but as far as i know you cant downgrade the bootloader.
if i could flash just the bootloader for ota6 maybe that would help.
i will try downloading ne5 now but my last rom was running a nkd modem.
im going to try and flash G900P_NKD_FullRestore.tar in odin if that dont work ill try ne5
and will report back shortly.
well nkd full restore boots up to
unknowen error!
wait..
done!
udc start.
power reset or
unknown
upload mode.
this is the way i got it back from retech after they replaced my bezel and digitlizer and screen
i never had an issue with anything software wize before that.
Have you tried flashing the phone without any sim cards inserted including the sprint card? You are flashing from a powered off state right? You know it wont work unless phone is powered off before going into download mode.
As a last resort attached is the pit file for the 16gb G900P. Unzip and put it into the pit section of odin and flash the stock firmware again. It will repartition the entire phone when it flashes the stock image.

Hi guys,
I have flashed SD recovery over Exynos (idiot - I know!)
Have I got any chances to recover the device?
I have got g930f.
Bootloops at Samsung Galaxy S7 logo.
Will boot to download mode, visible in odin but upon flashing anything it will immediately restart and odin will FAIL.
Anything to revive this brick?
Thanks!

Hi mate
Probably yes....
You could try to reflash the correct recovery first.....
Custom like TWRP
Check here
Or the original one
Check here
Worse case scenario flash a stock rom (odin) Use all 4 files AP, BL, CP and home_csc to try to save your data ( has to be the same as you have in your phone now) or CSC this will give you a clean installation

What error do you get in Odin, check the logs.
Did you try flashing from another PC
re install driver
Un install Kies or smart swicth
Different USB cable

I can't check it right now ( I'm at work) but it basically gives me fail on red backdrop. Can't remember what it says in the log, but definitely says Success: 0/ fail: 1
Last file I tried to flash was whole system rom. Just before that, I tried to flash TWRP for s7 exynos - the correct one but it failed. And, of course, it all started with flashing incorrect twrp which went through perfectly :/

When you get home, just try installing "Samsung Smart Switch" (it's no longer Kies) (http://www.samsung.com/sg/support/smartswitch/Smart_Switch_pc_setup.zip)
I understand that you already have drivers on your PC, but the Samsung Smart Switch might come with some updated drivers for your Samsung S7, which might change the scenario. Installing that, plus using another version of Odin (run it as Admin). I used this one just today. (http://dl.sammobile.com/Odin3-v3.11.1.zip)
If the flashing the recovery still fails, try flashing Stock rom under AP like suggested earlier. If that still fails.
Use Samsung Smart Switch's "Emergency recovery" but do the Initialization (2nd tab) by inputting your Phone model and let Smart Switch download the official firmware from Samsung's servers.
This must be done while your phone is in Download mode, so make sure you have enough juice to wait out the download process.
Good luck!
Okay so here is my issue. I wanted to root/flash my sony xperia z3 d6616. Okay followed the instructions and unlocked bootloader. Then I wanted to backup existing ROM etc. so I googled it and found out that for this I will need to have some recovery like TWRP.
I went installed TWRP with “fastboot flash boot twrp.img” – I should have done “fastboot flash recovery twrp.img” which means I am stuck here now...
Then I searched for official firmware. Found that (https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/ftf-stock-firmwares-xperia-z3-models-t2886061) with ftf extension. Installed fastboot/drivers let it run few times already and nothing.
I get something like this
INFO – Flashing finished.
INFO – Please unplug and start your phone
INFO – For flashtool, Unknown sources and Debugging must be checked in phone settings
INFO – Device disconnected
Like it went through if I see? Or this Debugging option is the problem?
Not sure what can I do now. Is it possible to get android working from this point or should I just throw my phone away now? Please if you know how to fix this or if you have any idea tell me. I will appreciate it a lot.
Or am I doing it wrong? As I found that it should be better to exclude sin – kernel while trying this stock ftf? Should I include it next time?
Or if anybody could advise me where to get like this boot image. Or I should try to install some custom ROM and it might work and I could get my android system again.
Your phone doesn't power on after flashing stock fw via flashtool?
It should start normally if you flashed the correct fw.

After doing this with flashtool my phone powers on. But it boots to TWRP, like it did nothing. If this makes any sense to you. Like flashing has done nothing.
Not sure if this line INFO – For flashtool, Unknown sources and Debugging must be checked in phone settings
might be the problem? Since it states that my Debugging must be checked? But since I overridden my boot image with TWRP I am unable to go to settings to change this.
Thank you for quick reply.
