Hi all,
I've found myself in a bit of a pickle for the last four days. I was using my GearVR headset, when it froze. I could hear the audio, so I assumed it just needed to be redocked on the headset. So, I took it out, and was immediately met with a black screen. After a few seconds, it came to the "Samsung Galaxy Note 5, Powered by android" screen. I figured it was just rebooting, so I let it be. 2 hours later, I come back to it at the same screen. So, I forced it off (Vol Down, Power) and let it reboot again, getting stuck on the same splash screen. The phone will NOT boot to recovery, but WILL boot to download mode.
Fast forward 3 days and I have reflashed it FOUR times now with the latest STOCK firmware (7.0 Nougat) and it still refuses to boot past this screen. I have tried to flash a custom recovery, but was c*** blocked by the FRP lock on my device. Any help would be MUCH appreciated!!

Hello,
Basically I was playing around with my Galaxy S recently and I noticed that on boot it was having issues with starting and got stuck in some form of loop. So when it did eventually boot I managed to get it to do a factory reset. That booted up fine and I was going about installing various apps and stuff.
Now the phone refuses to boot past the screen "Galaxy S GT-19000" screen with the Samsung logo at the bottom (The first screen that loads).
I've looked into Recovery mode but cannot seem to get the UI up for it... All and any help is more then welcome!
Thanks,
Check out the jig available at Mobiletechvideos that can get you directly into download mode if you are soft bricked on a Galaxy s
hello,
I tried flashing an ICS ROM onto my Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket (i727 AT&T) using Odin.
It was stuck at recovery.img. I unplugged my phone after a while, and then it wouldn't turn on. I would hold the power button, and then the Samsung logo would appear for a second, screen would go black for a second or two, and then the Samsung logo would come on again for about a second. Then the screen goes black.
I got into recovery mode, and wiped my data 3 times. I also wiped the cache. Then I tried rebooting the system, but the phone wouldn't turn on.
I took out the battery several times, and even tried turning the phone on with a different battery, once again to no avail.
Now I'm trying to flash the ROM on again, but it's stuck at recovery.img again.
PLEASE HELP. How do I get my phone back to normal/successfully get the ICS ROM on it?
I'm a noob at this.

Install this rom and you should be able to boot
Breaking News: ICS for Skyrocket Leaks, We've Got The Link (AT&T)
XblackdemonX,
That's the exact ROM I tried to flash. It's stuck at recovery.img. I unplugged and my phone wont boot.
However, that link mentions Heimdall files, what are those?

I was in snapchat when all of a sudden my nexus 5x totally froze and rebooted (which is normal considering how much snapchat sucks.)
I saw the warning about my bootloader being unlocked which was normal and it went to the Google screen, where it sat for about 5 minutes. Normally in every previous bootloop I've had in the past, the boot animation just loops forever and ever. I force shut it off and tried booting it up again and this time on the Google screen the phone totally shut off and restarted showing me the warning about my bootloader. I tried the recovery, but got the same results. So, I went home and plugged it in thinking maybe that would help but it still was shutting off and rebooting. It never got to the boot animation. I had all the adb and fastboot drivers so I just decided to flash the factory image. It flashed fine, and sadly the problem was still there. I'm so stuck, I can't get into the recovery to do anything and there's only so much that you can do over fastboot. I've found that if I press the power button every couple seconds while the Google screen is still showing and it doesn't reboot but the Google logo won't leave for the boot animation.
Seriously guys, please just give me any of your ideas.
Hi guys, so recently I bought a Galaxy S6 Verizon off of eBay. I got it for fairly cheap because it was stuck in a boot loop. I usually have no problem fixing stuff like this, but this time is different. So the first thing I tried when I got the phone was to do a reset and cache wipe from recovery. I rebooted the phone and it showed a screen that said "Android is starting, optimizing app 9 out of 31." when it got to 21 the phone rebooted and went back to 9. It did this several times before I attempted to wipe/reset again. I then downloaded the tar file G920VVRU4CPH1 and flashed it in Odin. I did a manual reset before the phone booted, and it is doing the same thing again. reboots to a green screen where it tries to optimize apps, stays there for about 20 seconds, and reboots over and over again in the same cycle. I have tried all other stock marshmallow roms that i can find, Odin won't flash older ones, (assuming its not letting me downgrade). Also another weird thing, every time I flash, the blue update screen goes to 32%, stops, erases, and reboots. Phone is on 6.0.1 version MMB29K.G920VVRU4CPH1 as seen in recovery. Any help would be gladly appreciated. Thank you!
I am having a similar problem with loading new rom. The farthest it gets is 32%. Sometimes it doesn't get even that far.
I ended up just buying a trashed s6 and swapping the motherboards. Only way I could fix it
My pixel had been restarting frequently for past 2 days. I am using Stock android 7.1.1. It suddenly went into a boot loop with white screen with Google flashing every 2 seconds. Power plus volume down helps but when I select recovery, it again keeps blinking. volume up doesn't help either. Cannot get into recovery to do a reset. I am okay with hard reset if I have to do one. I can't get it replaced right away as I am not in the country I got it from right now. Please help me out.
I have the same issue. I haven't found a fix. Someone recommended to unlock the bootloader on a previous thread, but I'm not sure how I would do that when not able to get into recovery mode.
