Hello all
First off I'd like to say thanks to this site (it enabled me to root and custom rom my G6 plus that I have passed on - hence I want to do the same to my G7 Power)
Panicking slightly as not sure how to correct and it's semi bricked. Tried to install CRdroid but that gave me no end of trouble with looping. installed Havoc OS fine, but somehow managed to boot back to it before installing gapps. Not a problem I thought just reboot into TWRP and redo the whole lot. Only now TWRP is unresponsive. Tried restarts and all sorts. cannot got TWRP to do anything.
Any advice appreciated - let me know what info you need.

help needed !!
I have a KFHD7(tate) and had been running CM12.1 for a while with only an occasional update using the nightly builds, I only updated occasionally as the unit would not always turn on at the first attempt and would stick at the CM boot logo, after switching it off and back on the unit would run quite smoothly, however none of the updates seemed to cure the problem.
I noticed that there was a new release 'cm-13.0-20160218-UNOFFICIAL-tate' which I flashed via TWRP along with 'open_gapps-arm-6.0-stock-20160301', these were flashed at the same time.
after a reboot the KFHD7 worked fine with no apparent problems, I then downloaded one of the dark themes,(not sure exact one) and this seemed ok at first, I entered the settings screen and only a few words and graphics were visible!
I rebooted back into TWRP recovery and performed a factory reset from within TWRP ... big mistake, now the unit only boots to the blue TWRP boot screen and blinks off after a few seconds it is stuck in a loop and I dont know how to recover it, I have tried the usual combinations of holding the power and vol buttons but still comes on the same .. any suggestions would be appreciated (dumbed down solutions please as not that techy, but can muddle through if step by step instructions)

Hello.
First of all, i'm sorry if this question have been asked before. Believe me, i've tried searching even through Google's 2nd page but still no luck in finding answer.
I had a OPO 64GB version. It was working fine until i decided to do ROM update. My previous working ROM is "CM13-20160812-somethingsomething-SNAPSHOT.zip". It is rooted with Xposed installed
I tried to update it using TWRP. the update is "CM13-20161216-somethingsomething-SNAPSHOT.zip". It got stuck at "Patching system image unconditianally"(probably wrong spelling there) for more than one hour. So, i decided to force reboot it and it is now stuck at boot logo(not bootanimation)
Thing is, i cant get it into fastboot, nor recovery. it just stuck there and i've tried to Power Cycle but still no result. I tried to plug it into my computer and it does detect it in "Device Manager" under "Portable Devices" with name "A0001".
I wonder if it soft brick or hard brick. I'm asking brilliant mind in here, if there's a way to restore it. I just revived it from broken screen since 2016(talk about bad luck) and i don't want to completely replace as the device is still in good condition.
Also, if there's no other choice then i had no other way than to follow this guide here, which completely unbrick my phone(also losing me 30+ apps)

or

Nevermind. i got it to work by installing QPST driver. for some reason it enable adb at boot logo(yes at boot logo). got into recovery and recover my system partition(which is broken).
I ask the mod to delete this thread. Thank you
hey guys, i think i really did everything wrong about rooting...
i tried to root my s7 edge with odin, so i flashed the newest twrp and that worked but my phone wasntn rootet, so i flashed magisk v16 from twrp after and got stucked in the samsung logo and my idea was to flash lineage 17.1 and superSu and now my internal storage is no more shown in twrp and my phone now is not even stucking in the samsung logo anymore, it stucks in the really first "samsung Galaxy edge screen" and even twrp stucks in booting screen, only thing working right now is download mode
i did everything youtubers told me and i still stuck in this screen and wanna know if theres a solution, or is there no chance left for my phone?
ofc i havent done any backups..
so at first, pls dont judge me, im really new to the scene and on youtube everything looked so easy and the second thing is my language
my english is not that good
is there a way to completely go back to stock and stock kernel or might the internal storage got damage by all the things ive done?
couldnt find any solution on xda or youtube
Try to boot into twrp again.
Flash encryption file (no verify opt encrypt 6.0.zip) for internal memory. Think this is your problem. Your memory is encrypted.

Hey,
I actually had kind of same problem when I tried to flash stock ROM,
I got pretty much everything wrong when I was trying to make it boot again,
so I almost bricked it.
Only download mode was working and TWRP couldn't boot,
So I left it until battery drained and phone turned off,
after that I plugged the phone into a PC, opened download mode and flashed only BL, CP and CSC in odin, one by one.
I skipped AP because it got stuck every time I tried to flash stock ROM,
But flashing TWRP was always successful.
So I flashed TWRP, successfully, and tried to boot,
and it booted, it took several restarts but it actually booted.
If you boot into TWRP you will be able to get it to work again,
by repairing or formatting partitions and flashing stock ROM after that.
Hey. Not sure if I'm asking for help in the right place. I'm new and I made this account because I'm getting kind of desperate, so I'm sorry in advance if I'm posting in the wrong place.
I just installed TWRP onto my Samsung Galaxy J5 2017. I thought it all went pretty well until I tried to reboot it after checking out the custom recovery only for it to be stuck in a boot loop. The regular J5 logo comes up, then the screen goes black, then the logo comes back up and so on. I am still able to go into recovery and download modes and I've tried using the TWRP recovery to wipe and format all data, but to no avail.
Upon some researching, it seems that flashing the official firmware using Odin is one possible fix, and I am currently downloading it from Updato, though it is a slow download and it will take all night. Even so, once it's ready, I'm not entirely sure how to flash it or whether I need any extra files to make it work, since I haven't been able to find any guides for this phone specifically.
If anyone could confirm that I'm going down the right route and guide me through it, or suggest some other, more effective, fix, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance,
Mayo
Well, I flashed Magisk and that seems to have fixed it
----FIXED----- dunno how to delete posts
---- did specific combination of keys = power+vol_up till the screen turns black, power+vol_down after that, and all keys together till recovery mode boots up. Took me quite a bit of tries, reseted to stock and went on with flashing again from there ----
Hello all,
So I'll start off from the beginning. I was updating my 3.6 Havoc custom OS to the latest 4.2 Havoc custom OS. I started off with making a backup, went on with the data reset, booted into TWRP and flashed the v4.2 img on slot B. And then I booted into the system instead of rebooting into recovery, without Magisk flashed. I feel like not having Magisk flashed is the real culprit here. Please enlighten me on this topic if I'm wrong.
So the problem is that I'm stuck in an endless "bootloader in unlocked", tried out the combinations of pressing P+V_UP and P+V_DOWN, tried out pressing all 3 (P, V_UP, V_DOWN) buttons at the same time, also ADB and fast boot are not detecting the device, so I have no way of entering TWRP again. Please please please help me in fixing this
I have read many articles trying to find a solution to my problem, and none seem to be an closely related to my problem, please guide me to the thread if it already exists. Im on a Mac OSX so MSMtool won't be any help of me.. I would really really apreciate an urgent reply.
Thanks in advance.
