Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite [SM-T111] LOCKED ON HOME SCREEN - Android General

Good morning, the tablet in question for a few days stuck due to some application, I do not know exactly what or facebook or some online games, .... in practice the screen shuts off and even pushing the power button anything, then He restarted alone !! The last time, however, did not restart but still seemed to be still lit as I felt very hot on the battery side.
Then I tried to get into recovery mode, I can do a WIPE DATA FACTORY RESET with a positive result, then I do WIPE CACHE but the latter goes wrong and the tablet restarts running the initial black screen with the samsung and tab model , Then switch back on then vibrating and rebooting always with that screen and so on in repetition.
I can not do it again. The tablet has the original firmware. An early thank you to all those who will help me

[Q] N8020 - Recovery help

Hi all,
I have been given a tablet to try and recover by a friend who seems to have semi-bricked it. I heard that he ticked the wrong buttons in Odin and then it all went downhill from there...
See the attachment: This graphical screen is displayed all the time. I cant actually shut the tablet down, even if I boot into CWM and choose shutdown from there. It will turn the entire screen of for 2 seconds and then then go into the attached funky graphics screen and stay there.
There is no battery charge at the moment so the odd time I do get it to boot properly, it shuts down straight away. Im leaving it chargin as we speak to rule that out.
I've tried flashing a stock ROM and get an error7. I have wiped and reset the tablet and wiped both caches too.
My next move is to (after its charged) download and apply a ROM from the samsung website and see if I can return it to normal.
I really want to know why I cant shut it off and what's the deal with the weird graphics screen? Any step by step instruction on how to reset properly and what I should do would be SUPERB.

Galaxy S6 Massive issues

Hi XDA, looking to you for answers...
The Device: I bought my Verizon Galaxy S6 straight out due to that phone trade in for $100 gift cards that happened way back in April. So I have no insurance on the device. No worries, as its in a otter box commuter case with tempered glass and I baby my devices.
The problem part 1:
-Last week just before I walked out the door for my anniversary dinner. I restarted my device and it didn't come back on.
- I plugged it in and got no light. Pressed volume +/-/home/power - and got the boot screen
- Accidentally factory reset the device when I let go off the combinations of buttons (why factory reset is the second option I have on idea)
- After the initial factory reset, I noticed it didn't go through. Rebooted and saw DM-Veritiy verification error
- Tried multiple times to get a clean factory reset until finally I got into the phone setup wizard
- Phone setup wizard froze on me about 3 times before I was able to get it to work
- Finally with finesse and some luck, I was able to get the phone partially restored but I knew something was fishy
- Brought the phone to Verizon which said I have no insurance, the only thing I may have is a manufacturer warranty with Samsung.
- The rep tried to factory reset the phone, however the DM-Veritify verification error came up again and could no longer continue.
- After some time there, I felt like I was wasting my time, Figured I would this myself.
- Went home and flashed the STOCK OS on my galaxy s6 with ODIN.
- After ODIN, and many OTA updates, I was on 5.11 and restoring my phone
After all this, the phone worked PERFECTLY FOR A WEEK
The problem part 2:
- Was in a parking lot to get some groceries, sent a text and put the phone in my pocket. When I looked at it again, the phone was off
- Tried to turn it on... nothing... I held the +/-/home/power buttons again and rebooted normally
- Phone started up just fine but froze after a minute.
- If I get the phone on, it will either freeze/hard-lock or when the screen turns off, then its just turns off, or restarts itself to failure
- I've tried to reboot into recovery volume +/home/power to wipe the cache, however I get an android in distress
- After a few attempts to get into recovery to wipe the cache, I managed to get past the distress icon and press get the menu selection down once before the device froze
- After more attempting to to wipe the cache. I don't even get the android in distress icon anymore, just the blue android screen hangs
- If I use all the buttons to reboot normally - the phone will freeze or once the screen turns off, its off.
thats it
I feel like I just ate $700
XDA please help
Phone freezes in "recovery mode" 3 seconds in. Managed to get one wipe cache in.
Getting a "system rev. check fail device: 3 binary 1 error" error when trying to flash ODIN.
Guess you can't flash stock OS from 5.1.1
got a factory reset to go through just fine. Restored phone for 30 minutes and proceeded to use it.
Seemed fine and then froze while texting.
Seems to be randomly freezing and then a sudden restart.
Contacted verizon for the number to call for warranty send off.
*looks around* I see MULTIPLE issues regarding the S6 randomly restarting.
I should have got the Note 4
Hi,
Sorry, but if it keeps happening persistently even after factory resets and successful stock installs, I'd call it a hardware problem. The best thing you can do is contact Verizon or Samsung and try getting a replacement.
All the best,

S6 Reboot loop/freezing constant blue notification light

Left it to charge over night and when I looked at in the morning it was stuck on the samsung logo screen, Holding power button down on it's own does nothing and I have to hold all 3 and do a complete power down, I can get into the recovery menus sometimes but it will freeze again before I can do anything with them,Any way to fix this? I haven't tampered with the device in anyway either.
Oi Mate...
first of all, important:
For a Power Reset you push Power-Button and Vol-Down and keep pressed until it resets. NOthing more, nothing less.
Try to get into recovery to try some wipes (Data, Cache, Dalvik). Be warned: Data-Wipe means clean-wipe. ALternatively try to get in into DOwnload-Mode to see if you can flash a stock image.
YOu still might be unlucky. Now the time is starting where lots of S6's have 2 years or more of heavy duty behind them, so the population will definitely start to decrease. Good that I have 3 of them... Returns from colleagues from work meant to be thrown away .... NOT!
Silly me but that is what I meant anyway, Only managed to get into recovery once and it froze just as I managed to select cache, Will attempt a few more times then just accept it as a lost cause, Had the thing since August 2015 anyway.

Samsung GT-P3110 Bricked(?)

Hello, recently I started reading comics and found my old tab lying around so ill give it a go
First thing first it wont boot becaue it had no charge obviously (been there for like some years), then I tried to plug the charger but to no avail
I cleaned the contacts of the charger with a dry brush and start charging which then my tab starts charging!
when I booted, I think it was CM 12 (or 13? the one with andy I believe) and everything is force stopping.
I then tried to go to recovery mode and wipe data, but when i rebooted it it just stuck with the splash screen (the one before bootanimation)
I turned the tab off and tried to boot to download/recovery mode but it would just boot me right to the splash screen again, which mean i cant go to TWRP or ODIN.
And it doesn't always want to turn on, sometimes it just stuck there with black screen (not turned on) even if i press power/combo button, sometimes it pop up to the splash screen. what i notice is that i should wait for the charging indicator to show up before i can try to boot again (i got enough juice now, 56% the last time it turned on)
also one thing i remember is something about F2FS but im not sure what that is, but that might be a clue to my situation so ill just write this down here
Hi
Same here with P5110 and Slim7. I can't start it anymore....
I didn't use it for some time and then i charged it to 100% and it started but everything seemed to lag. Then i turned it off and wanted to look for another rom or a newer build. But i can't start it anymore. when i plug in the charger i can see the charging screen but beside of that i can do nothing. It has no effect when i push the on/off button or anything else...and it has to be at nearly 100%...

Samsung Galaxy Core 2 G355M stuck on "samsung" screen

Greetings!! before anything else, my english is pretty basic so apologies for murdering the language.
This morning i found my very old and beloved Samsung Galaxy Core 2 G355M turned off, i thought the battery depleted during night for leaving some app open like steam or chrome, anyway this happened so many times in the past so i just plugged the phone to charger, turned on and it was stuck on "samsung" screen for more than 2-3 minuteS, that was very unusual and it never happened before so i restarted hoping it was just some random malfunction but nope, the phone still stuck in that samsung screen.
I removed the battery and that didn't fixed it, neither removing the SIM card/chip and/or MicroSD.
I watched some videos (and dozens of websites) about the "hard reset" method pressing and holding home button, power button and volume up button... let me show you exactly what i mean with a couple of videos in spanish, the model they have is the exact same as mine the G355M.
then, what's the problem? well when i do it, my phone shows the green android robot with a red warning sign and then it just restarts, no matter how many times i've tried, soon as the little android guy shows up, the phone restarts, it doesn't show the "android system recovery options" like you can see in the videos above.
BUT WAIT!!! i kept trying and sometimes android succesfully loads (no system recovery tho) and then im at phone initial configuration options, you know, with some "welcome" screen, when it asks for your name, google account, samsung account, wi-fi connection and all that stuff you must fill with a brand new device. I thought the "hard reset" worked somehow but nope, now the next problem is that several android and google services crash while doing this "initial configuration" and sometimes the phone restarts itself and if it doesn't i can't continue because those "services" were crucial and the phone stays in some infinite loop trying to validate either wi-fi connection, google account or my name.
What do you thing happened with this phone? it was working just fine last night, i woke up and saw it was turned off then this permanent "samsung" screen.
Is there any PC software that can access the internal memory or fix the entire phone? maybe i can save some old SMS messages or stuff stored there which now is locked or deleted (coz i did this "hard reset?")
I know nothing about flashing, odin3 and that sort of stuff but im very familiar with PC stuff so i guess thats the only thing lef to do, mess around with the phone, there's too much info around so id appreaciate if you guys point me in the right direction (odin3 tutorial, trusty websites with firmwares, roms and that stuff for ancient samsung devices). Meanwhile gonna read everything about odin and how to flash, thx in advance.
BTW this user had almost the same problem like me...
