Hello everyone, please I need your help, I bought this device Samsung S Duos 2 (Second Hand) last week. The problem is I found out that the phone instantly crashes when it connects to mobile data, bluetooth, wifi or even hotspot, the phone restarts immediately and puts back all the data of the previous owner. I tried flashing TWRP, formatting the device, and flashing the stock firmware but I have faced no success, the phone keeps restoring the data and removing all the customizations I tried to apply. Please help me, I am going to need this device sooner... I tried to flash TWRP, stock rom via Odin, but all went fail. Please help and please respect this post, Thank You

Hello,
I've a wifi problem with my Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505). I had CM11 on my phone, but I don't like it anymore so I wanted to uninstall it. I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477&page=346. I've installed the official stock firmware ''Latest lollipop 5.0.1'' with Odin3 v3.10 from the 2nd post in that topic.
The installation went fine. After the installation the only thing is that my wifi won't turn on. When I push the button, the wifi turns on, but directly after that it turns off (in 1 s). I've tried it many times, I've done a factory reset, wiped the cache etc. but still it won't work.
I followed the guide properly.
What can I do to solve this problem? Thanks in advance!
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA Assist Please reinstall stock firmware and see that you are flashing right Stock Firmware available for your region Factory Rest after flash
Good Luck!
Hi all,
I need some help with my S6. A few minutes ago my devices suddenly restarts ( I honosly don't Know why) and hangs in a bootloop. I see the Samsung splashscreen, then after a while the device reboots again and again. I did a factory reset, after this the same happens again. The only difference is that now the system tries to install some apps (I guess this are provider specific apps by Vodafone), but then its still rebooting. I don't have any idea what goes wrong.
Now I need some support how to get my Galaxy up and running again. What can I do?
The Device is on the original vodafone ROM, I did a root with pingpong yesterday.
Build-Number:LRX22G.G920FXXU1AODG
Just use Samsung Smart Switch to restore the orginal firmware. Or flash a orginal Samsung Firmware with Odin. Both options won't trigger knox.
Thanks, I have reflashed the stock rom using Odin.
EDIT: See bottom of post
Hello everyone, and thanks for taking the time to attempt to help me.
Earlier today, my T-Mobile Galaxy S5 updated to 5.1.1. I searched google and came across a few links on how to root my phone (G900T) - The one I ended up using was CF-AutoRoot
I used Odin 3.07, used the tar5 file from that site above where I downloaded the root, and attempted to root the phone. Odin says everything worked as planned ''passed'' was displayed with 0 fails. I waited about 20 minutes, but my phone never rebooted, it was stuck in a boot logo loop ' 'Samsung Galaxy S5 powered by Android'' or ''T-Mobile'' was displayed.
I tried going into recovery and reseting all data / factory wipe but that didn't help, and made it even worse. Now my phone says this when I try to turn it on: ''Firmware upgrade encountered an issue, Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again''
How do I go about getting back to stock firmware , that is rootable, so I can then proceed to install CyanogenMod?
EDIT: I used Kies and was able to get back to stock firmware and the phone turns on.
Can anyone recommend a reliable root for the G900T S5?

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
It's good to hear that you managed to revive your phone. Many of us find it convenient to install a custom recovery such as TWRP which makes backing up and restoring, switching ROMs, and many such activities much easier. XDA happens to have an active and friendly area dedicated to the Samsung Galaxy S5, and specifically to the T-Mobile version at http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5. I suggest you search that area or simply post your question in the Q&A forum there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/help where our experts will be most likely to be able to guide you.

First of all i want to say two things:
1. This thread was opened after reading 179 similar threads and browsed all 260 pages of q&a answers
on the galaxy tab 2 and other several threads on Samsung products with similar symptoms.
2. Thank you in advance to however is able to resolve this issues, not only for me, but for several others.
the section is full of similar problems with no answer whatsoever.
The story:
My Samsung p5110 WiFi only (stock firmware), started to restart randomly and at one point froze at the Samsung logo.
I was able to enter in download mode, and with odin i "managed" to load the firmware for p5100.
And that was the mistake. at restart started to display: “Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.
Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again“. But kies does not connect and recognize the device at all.
so out of the question to salvage the device in that mode.
Odin still recognizes the device, so i was able to load several stock firmwares:
P5110XXBLH4_P5110OXXBLH3_HOME.tar.md5
P5110XWALD4_P5110OXXALD5_HOME.tar.md5
P5110XXDNB1_P5110COADNB1_HOME.tar.md5
everything goes ok, it says pass, but there is no restarting, the screen goes black. when i turn it on
the same thing: "firmware upgrade.....
Tried to load CWM and TWRP recovery in order to delete everything in the device, installed ok but
no effect, it is not launching, only: "firmware upgrade....
I want to point out that USB mode was to enabled do to the fact that the tablet broke so it was not
planned, i have uninstalled kies and installed the samsung and omap drivers now, same results, and tried
all the usb ports.
I am running out of ideas and other suggestion i haven't found on this site up until now, so any
constructive help and comments will be welcomed by me and more than likely by the others in
my situation.
use odin in this way

well i had the same problem with my GT-P3113
there is one way i know to solve this which worked for me.
1. flash TWRP/CWM
a)first make sure that you find the rooted md5 firmware for your device.
[this is my 5th post so i cannot add links. so you can always search in xda for other threads regarding your device's rooted md5 so that you can flash using odin.]
b)now flash the rooted md5 using odin
c) flash TWRP/CWM Using odin(i would prefer CWM)
d)then downlaod a custom rom for your device and place it in your sd card.
e)flash it using your recovery
f)now try rebooting and you should go into the new rom
g)now check usb debugging in the settings>about device>touch on build number 7 times>you will see developer options>check usb debugging.
h)now try flashing the original stock firmware using odin
CONGRATS YOU HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM OF YOUR DEVICE
NOTE:if you still have any problem with booting or if you are stuck in the boot logo try going to recovery and do a factory reset.
if still you have any questions let me know.

Hey guys,
My perents bought me galaxy s7 SM-G930FD dual sim from an original samsung store in HONG KONG, after one mounth of using the devies, over night the galaxy made an update and after it he was gone. a lot of necessary app crashing when the galaxy is turning on, it doing a lot off resets by itself, some times going directly to recovery mode by itself.
I try to pluged it to SMAT SWITCH and to do a hard restore but when it try to install the restore, on the blur screeen of android he wrote *erasing....* when it reach 33% and then he stoped making any restore.
its a new phone and nothing happend to it before the update.
- I try flashing with ODIN to the latiest firmware from samobile= same erasing process.
- I try many thing= same erasing process.
- If the phone make it and start, a lot of windows poping with "unfortantly..google store stop" or different app crashing when the phone start until it reset itself.
right now : after hard restore from SMART SWITCH on G930FXXU1BPKF.
please please dear people, help me!!

Greetings and welcome to xda. If Odin and emergency firmware recovery in smartswitch don't work then I am out of ideas. I do know it is possible to change the firmware on your device, there is a thread on it in the s7 forums. Why not ask your question here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/help
and the experts will help you
Good Luck
