Bricked Samsung Galaxy S7 - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

I recently tried to install android 10 (PixelExperience) on my Samsung Galaxy S7 through this guide : wiki.pixelexperience.org/devices/hero2lte/install/. It worked fine for about 15 hours or so, and then it randomely stopped working. (it crashed and would not boot) I could not get past the Samsung Galaxy S7 logo before it would crash and reboot. I tried to reinstall the stock OS, bootloader and recovery, and the recovery works, except for now it wont boot anything (be it the pixelexperence rom, or the stock rom...)
I even tried to load a twrp backup that I took before I changed anything, and it did not work (it had dissapeared)
When I try to do the format option from the recovery, it does nothing.
Does anyone have anything else I can try??
EDIT : Just as I posted this, it randomely worked. All I did this time was 1. Flashed the stock (AP, BL, CP, and CSC) using ODIN, then I flashed TWRP using ODIN, then I flashed the pixelexperience rom via adb sideload.
Now I have a new question. What was happening, and why did this work (I did almost the same thing before) and why did the problem happen in the first place??
EDIT : I still found a problem. The phone works fine in the pixel OS, but it does not see any wifi or bluetooth networks. I tried to reinstall the CP modem driver thing, but it did nothing. It was working earlier though.

You need to ask any questions about a custom ROM on the ROM thread it self so the DEV can answer you.
Why is it happening? Don't know could be a million things. ask the Dev.

Stuck at bootlogo

Hi, last week my phone started behaving very weird, out of nothing the phone freeze and stopped working and reboots itself and then got stuck on the boot logo, I tried to go to recovery via bootloader, but it didn't work, I tried everythging but it the only thing useful was connecting it to the pc and wiping cache via fastboot. This happened like 3 times a day. Now I have reflashed the stock firmware, installed some apps, xposed and other things, and when my device was ready, started behaving the same way like before, I don't know what to do now. please help.
Im using retail us 4.4.3 firmare.
this never happened with 4.4.2, is there any way to downgrade?
I followed this guide to restore stock firm: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219

[Completed] [Q] I need help with a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113

Hello community, I am new here so I don' t know where to put this.
Well I need some help, I am having problems with my old tab, A Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113, Flashed with custom ROM CM 10.1.3 for GT-P5110
Worked fine for a year and a Half, the issue that I am having now is that, it constantly restarts, after entering to the OS I can tweak change etc, but after a few secs it just turns of and reboots the system.
The other problem that I am having is that I tried everything that I could think of. I deleted some apps, which came back after the reboot. I booted to safemode, and deleted the last apps that I installed, still came back after the crash reboot.
I went to recovery mode (CWM) and did a Factory reset, delete cache and delete Dalvik Cache. Nothing when reboot everything was like last time.
wen't to and tried to reflash CM 10.1.3 (stable) following every procedure and nothing everything was back.
Last thing I tried is ODIN with stock ROM (which is hard to find for this tab.) but get write error after going to half. I am downloading a second stock ROM (android 4.1.1) to see how it goes.
Hope to find help here, I would be greatly thankful.
EDIT: Flashed now with the new stock ROM, ODIN says success, everything seems fine, but again I got received by the same splash and the same logon screen, and still crashes and reboots...
I really need the help

It keeps with the boot loop.
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. After you flash with Odin go into the stock recovery and do a factory reset. If that doesn't work it may be that you're device is just getting old and giving up the ghost. There's a whole forum for your device which may also help. See this,http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-2
Oh, that would be bad news :/
Do you think it could be that I deleted CWM rommanager app, and then accidentally deleted the .recovery, that put me into this situation?

It didn't work. I noticed that after the transferring of odin it doesn't go to the installation procedure. It just skips that and goes to the logscreen with how everything I had.
Now I went to safe mode, and deleted all apps that I could from play store. when I came back after a restart, everything was there, back. :/
Please ask any further questions you have on the q&a forum in your drives forum, the link I gave you. They are the experts on your device

[Completed] S4 i9515 VE stuck in bootloop

I have tried to flash the new Polish 5.0.1 firmware (I9515XXU1BOC3_I9515OXA1BOC3_XEO) to my I9515, but after few odin versions and many hard resets i couldnt get past the bootloop.
Now i am trying to get back to my original firmware (I9515XXU1ANI3_I9515OXX1ANK1_SEB) , which worked flawlessly before, but i can't get pass the bootloop on this one too!
I've had this problem with bootloop before, but i can't remember how i got it fixed, wiping data and cache doesn't work.
I have used odin 3.09, 3.10, 3.10.5, 3.07 and have same results.
Any ideas?
Aaaand of course i found what i did wrong, just a stupid, obvious mistake. I flashed using CP not AP -.-

S7 G930F stuck in boot after auto update

Hello Guys,
You are my last hope. I’m trying to fix a S7 which fall down but worked fine after this happened. Then Samsung made an auto update and after this the phone doesn’t start anymore.
I tried several things. First I flashed a stock firmware via Odin without any success. Then I saw that the FRP lock was active and "shortly" unlocked it via the bypass method from user tungkick. After that I installed TWRP and tried out several firmware’s and custom roms.
The only minimal success I had, was with the Hydra Rom which I flashed exactly afterwards the manual. After trying several time the devices started until the point "android starting....apps get opened....
After 45 minutes with no change I abort the process and shut down the device.
I tried to flash it at beginning with the back cover and after it without to check if there is any loose cable (what I haven’t done up to now).
I also noticed, that the phone disturb my wireless keyboard while stuck in boot. After put away the phone from computer the keyboard woks fine again. Maybe this info is also important.
I hope you can help and I ready to give any information you need.
Best,
Kilian
Factory reset from recovery?
Yes, also tried several times. No change

Help, bootloop hard to solve

Hi and thanks for reading.
My S6 is the 920p model. I had it rooted with Magisk v16.0, stock kernel, no xposed, DRA2.
Let me explain what happened.
Yesterday, I woke up because of a call sound. Once I finished talking, I tryed to unlock my phone using the fingerprint sensor. It was unlocked but suddenly it rebooted. When it booted I tryed to unlock it using the pin (obviousy), but it rebooted again.
I made a few more attempts but no luck, so I booted in TWRP, backed up my data on my laptop and made a factory reset.
Now the phone doesn't finish the boot, it only stays at "Samsung" blinking logo and the led in blue dimming, restarting again and again.
I installed the NexusOS 8.1, it booted, the phone is usable, but this rom doesn't recognize modem, so, no signal (Sprint modem not supported).
Since it works with that rom installed, I tried installing the DRA2 stock firmware wich I had installed at the beginning, but again stuck at bootloop.
Next thing I tried was using .pit file, and flashing one by one bl, ap, cp and csc. It only reached the "Optimizing apps" and rebooted again. I booted into recovery, wiped cache and reached "Starting apps" but, te phone rebooted again.
Right now I'm using it with the NexusOS rom wich is pretty, but with te Ril issue.
So, that's my problem, hope somebody help me.
Finaly solved: I just had to mark (Phone EFS Clear)
Apparently EFS was corrupt. After that, I had to unlock it. It's working properly.
