Hi everyone,
My S6 (SM-G920T on T-Mobile) suddenly froze when making a phone call the other day and wouldn't turn back on. It would only go to the Galaxy S6 screen and freeze there.
I downloaded the stock firmware using samfirm and reflashed the stock firmware using Odin. After that it went to the little Android symbol said it installed update and seemed to work. I got the phone to reboot to the setup made it about half way (adding e-mail accounts, etc.) and it froze and just shut off again and wouldn't turn back on.
I reflashed with Odin again. Said it succeeded. This time it died at the end of the Android installing update process. Now just stuck at S6 screen again.
It seems pretty well borked. Just wondering if there is anything else I should do before giving up to get a new phone?

Previously on a day off I became very bored, and decided to root my phone. After playing around with everything for a day i did not like it. So i just went into recovery mode and did factory rest on my phone. Now I used supersu and a basic root everything worked perfect after i rooted it. But once I tried to put the stock firmware back on my phone it started acting funny. With showing Unfortunately Context Service has stopped. It was so absurd my phone couldnt function properly. I tried flashing the stock firmware on there in hopes that it would fix my problem, but it only made my phone completely inoperable. I have been trying multiple ways to fix this using odin v3.09 and odin v 3.10.6. Here are some of the files I have tried to get my phone back to stock. (G900AUCU1ANCE_G900AATT1ANCE_G900AUCU1ANCE_HOME.tar.md5) I have tried downgrades. Odin seems to fail on every single one besides this set up (AP_G900AUCU1ANCE_964333_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5) (CP_G900AUCU1ANCE_964333_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5) (CSC_ATT_G900AATT1ANCE_964333_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5) Odin loads those three files onto my phone perfectly with in 3 minutes but after they are installed on my phone. When i power it up it gets through the first screen and only shows half of the samsung logo freezes and goes to a black screen with a blue light. I have been working at this problem for a little over a week a couple hours a night and i really can not seem to make any progess. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey all,
I got my S7 (930F) today. I went through the 1st time setup and evrythin went smooth until my phone decided to reboot and got stuck in some kind of reboot loop.
As i searched google i read that i was no uncommon problem with samsung devices so i tried some of the things suggested (factory reset/cache whipe) .. nothing worked.
It just tried to boot, loaded my carrier homescreen for a second and went back to the Samsung Galaxy S7 powered by android screen and would do tht over and over.
So i tried to do a firmware update via Kies , looked like it worked but still ... wouldnt boot after.
Maybe the best way would have been to return it to my carrier and get a replace but since i am little bit techy i decided to search some more.
So i ended up flashin
2016-04-18 Austria (3 Hutchison) 6.0.1 G930FXXU1APD1 G930FDRE1APC3
this firmware (found on sammobile) via ODIN 3.10.7 and everything worked but still no boot , still stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S7 screen.
Did i total brick my phone? What else can i do?
Running out of ideas, any help would be great!
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
Hello;
several days ago, suddenly my N8013 restarted. After rebooting, it stuck at Samsung logo, and I couldn't go to Recovery mode. I flashed an official rom from sammobile. the process was passed but my N8013 problem didn't solve.
What's the solution? Is it a hardware problem??
I don't know exactly what happened, mine did the same thing. I fiddled around with it enough that i got it to reload back to samsung 'new' but it never recovered where it was at the time it went haywire. I installed Kies on my PC and let it update the kernel to the latest stock. I had not rooted or anything up to that point. it just went kapuut. Now I am rooted and tried a couple ROMS, but so far I keep coming back to stock because I can't get something or another to work right (or at least the way I am used to)
Hi Guys,
So the issue seems to be straightforward and I read many threads about it, but none of them actually solve my problem.
My S6 is locked to Orange Poland (which is currently running 6.0.1 Android). I wanted to flash unbranded Marshmallow rom but that did not go well and in the process of flashing Odin returned an error (Complete(Write) operation failed). That's the way my phone became bricked. I tried to reflash this rom several times (while changing ODIN versions and also I tried single AP as well as 4 files + PIT). None of this worked. So I decided to go back to the branded rom—exactly the same as it was before.
Odin this time didn't show any fail messages and the phone actually started booting up. And here is my problem, it is stuck on the Samsung logo. I tried going to recovery mode, wipe cache and then factory reset but it still cannot go through Samsung logo.
My phone was never rooted. I have up to date samsung usb drivers. I tried SmartSwitch but it fails to recover the phone every time.
Do you kind people have any ideas?
Hi again,
Just a quick update from me. I finally managed to revive my phone. It seems that the bootloop was caused by the low battery (actually 0%, while being connected to PC). Once I charged the phone to 100%, it miraculously booted up and went to the setup wizard. I have no idea if the low battery had an effect on it, but once I charged it, the phone started to work properly.
In the end, I flashed back the stock rom with Orange Poland brand. The rom consisted of 4 files + PIT file. I used Odin3_v3.12.3.
Maybe this will help someone

Thats why you should always charge your phone to at least 70% before doing any flash :good:
