Stuck on installing system updates - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Hi guys, I really need someone to help me. I was going to perform an hard reset through recovery on a Samsung s8 plus, but as soon as I pressed the 3 button combo it has started to boot over and over again. It basically shows the Samsung logo then a blue screen saying installing system updates but instead of going into recovery mode it does the same all over again. I can access download mode but I don't know where go find the right firmware. Also I can't turn it off so I'm basically stuck into download mode and I don't even know if it gets charged this way...

It does charge slowly. Go to updato.com or sammobile.com and get your model and carriers latest firmware and flash in odin. Ive been in this situation on my US s8.

I have exactly the same problem now. I tried to update a kernel via TWRP and now boot loop. I can't even get into download mode, let alone recovery mode, just reboots automatically when hold the power button down.

I don't get into download mode at the first try i keep trying many times, maybe it's the same thing for you too. apparently i need to flash stock rom with odin on download mode, that's what you should do too if you get to download mode.
I have same problem...

Noobie here, and not sure if I know enough to make much sense.
I had a similar situation occur today.
New to me but a 2nd hand p600 which rooted today and then I used Odin 3.10.6 to flash TWRP and found myself in a boot loop similar to the description.
I panicked bigtime and feverishly googled my way to to this message thread and my hopes were raised when I read the OPs message and then got dashed to find no solution posted .
After perhaps 20 attempts of getting combined button pushes and releases correct. (it never happened ) I was desperately trying almost anythiing and then got to TWRP File manager, then Reboot, then System, then Normal Reboot and finally Success! I got the regular reboot. Phew!
Hope it helps
Well, I let it sit over the weekend and the battery complete depleted. I was then able to get into TWRP and Download mode when I applied power, I have since flashed a new rom and whewwww, up and running again. Before the battery went dead, it wouldn't do anything but reboot.....

S6 international bricked

Hi all, so i got my S6 international today and decided to immediately root it with cf autoroot. Something whent wrong although Odin reported it as successful. Now my phone won't boot up and gets stuck in the bootscreen. Can't get in download mode anymore. Anybody has an solution?
For some reason i can't upload a screen shot but it's the default screen saying
Samsung
Galaxy S6

Thanks in advanced,

Try holding the 3 buttons to get into download mode till you reach download mode. What I did is I released them when the black screen appeared. That just makes your phone reboot again. So hold it till you reach download mode. Then this worked for me:

Thanks for the reply, i accedently held the three keys after reboot and i came into download mode again. Flashed the stock rom and now I'm back in business

No problem! Fyi: the latest chainfire update makes the autoroot work. I'm on the international version too
Ok I'll try it
Wish I could root my Canadian variant
Well after 2 attempts it finally works

Plz help, samsung galaxy s7 edge is on continous boot loop

how to i fix my samsung galaxy s7 edge from boot loop
Enter recovery, power and volume up.

You need to know the button combos.
S6 + S7 Button Combos
If you are in a bootloop, press Power + Vol down simultaneous to force a reboot and when it reboots switch fast to Power + Home + Vol up to go into recovery where you can restore or flash a new rom.
Or you go into Download mode with Power + Home + Vol down in the same way and flash a stock rom over Odin. :highfive:

I've got same issue here. Phone is in continuous boot loop.
no root, no custom rom, hell I just received the phone a day ago... after initial set up I restarted the phone. The device is stuck in boot loop since...
I tried flashing latest stock ROM including Bootloader and CSC via Odin... I get a PASS! but stay in bootloop
Any suggestions? Very frustrating...
My S7e (AT&T) all of a sudden started soft-rebooting yesterday. It would do this about every 60 seconds.
I powered off, waited 30 seconds, and powered back on. No more reboots.
Not sure what happened to cause the reboots, but a hard boot seemed to fix it.

Instead of sending messages overhere: back to the shop where you bought it and demand a new one!

Got it with a contract, pretty sure they will send it in instead of giving me a new one. But it looks like i do might have to send it in ... although I really, really prefer not to. It is easter holidays, so shops closed, but even when they reopen... I'd be left without a phone for the time
Have you tried Kies? That would be official.

Samsung appears to be dead :( help

Hi, my Samsung s7 has been having issues since the nougat update, every so often the phone would reboot by itself for no reason and since yesterday the phone will no longer boot into the system at all it crashes when the Samsung logo comes on, I've tried to install a ROM through Odin with the same effect and I can't get into recovery as the device crashes before the options come up, the blue led stays on blue and if I try to put into download or boot more than 3 tines the phone hangs on a blank screen and does not respond at all I have to wait for the battery to die before I can try again, what could be the issue?
Why asking help here.seems that you have to send it to service?

Hmm.. That's sort of a last resort since I have limited cash to sort my phone out.. Just wondering if anyone has had this problem before since I can't figure it out for myself
Does it have a MicroSD card inserted?
Try without that in case that's causing problems
Crashing in download mode doesn't sound good though, as that is not part of the ROM/Firmware, it's equivalent would be similar to a PC crashing while in the BIOS
Hi thanks I've tried that as well but doesn't seem yo fix anything, it doesn't crash in download mode it crashes when attempting to boot into the os and crashes in recovery mode, I can install the os via Odin but as soon as the os is ready to boot it crashes

Wrong firmware for your device?

Not that I know of, I had to download it off another site since Sam mobile wasn't working at the time I hope Sam mobile works tonight
Make sure you're using CSC in ODIN to perform the full reset after the flash
Unfortunately that didn't solve anything tried to reinstall with 3 different os and still crashes at boot sigh.... Looks like the phone is busted and never going to be repairable, think I'm not going yp be owning a Samsung ever again since they always seem to fail on me grrr...

It should still be under warranty as long as you didn't void it with KNOX 0x1
It has been tripped with Knox I flashed a wrong firm ware it said it was official but it was rooted

With ODIN?
Didn't think it was possible to flash custom firmware with ODIN
Yeah it was modified firmware, anyways this can be closed as the motherboard on the phone was faulty so I sold the phone for spares as it can't be fixed if this happens to anyone else just go to Samsung and if you've tripped knox just sell it as it can't be fixed.
