Hi I wanted to completely clean my phone so i formatted it via open recovery, menu and then reloaded my stock firmware ready to flash custom rom.My problem is it flashes the rom ok but now is in a boot loop i.e. it boots up to the samsung logo and you hear the bootup sound then it reboots itself. I have removed battery re-formatted caches etc but it is behaving the same way, have I bricked it? is there something else i can try.
Thanks

Flash the stock rom again using Odin and it should work if that does not wrk from the stock recovery
wipe data and then see it shoud reboot

So I recently installed cynaogenmod 10.2 and now my phone won't boot into recovery. I was going to install gapps because I forgot to when I installed the rom. I do the correct sequence of buttons and then it shows recovery booting but then it vibrates and boots normally. I have no idea what's going on so any help would be appreciated.
Edit: Now it looks like it won't boot at all. I think I'll just let it sit for a bit.
Edit: Can I please have some help? I tried flashing a stock Odin firmware and now my phone won't boot past the AT&T logo.
Since using Odin, have you booted into stock recovery and done a factory and cache wipe?

+1. Factory reset will usually get you past a boot loop

Yeah I did that thanks, I hadn't thought that there was a "stock" recovery to do that with. I did it and now it works fine. I was still wondering why my phone wouldn't allow me to boot into recovery when I had 4.3 installed.
I am using CM12 nightlies on my N900W8, and I haven't had any problems until I tried to flash a new nightly (while running 20150410-NIGHTLY-hltetmo) and instead of booting into recovery I got a black screen. After taking the battery out and back in and trying again, the same thing happened. When I started it back up again the internal memory was completely wiped, I have no idea how or why. It can boot into download mode but I cannot get into recovery and therefore can't flash a new ROM or recovery to fix it. What do I do?
Download mode flash stock rom through Odin .

Didn't work. I tried CWM and TWRP, both resulted in a black screen when booting in recovery mode.
So my galaxy s4 decided not to turn on anymore and is stuck in bootloop. It is really weird the phone either gets stuck at the samsung logo or gets stuck trying to boot into recovery but just doesnt make it in. I tried installing twrp but the same result where it is stuck trying to boot into recovery but never makes it. I also tried installing stock lollipop but it still doesn't boot up. PLZ help my nexus 5 just broke and now this phone isnt working either
You're using Odin to install a stock rom? Any errors when flashing with Odin? If Odin flash was successful, did you perform a factory reset before booting the phone for the first time with the newly-flashed stock rom?Did the stock rom come from sammobile.com?

So i got the stock firmware for my s4 from sammobile and used odin to install it( downloaded fine) but after it just restarted and tried to boot into recovery mode unsuccessfully. I would have tried to do a factory reset but i cant since i cant actually get into recovery mode.
Open Odin, uncheck everything except f.reset time. Flash the rom. When you see the word reset in the status window, remove the USB cable from the phone, remove the battery, replace the battery, use the button combination to boot into recovery, factory wipe, and reboot.

OMG I LOVE YOU. I dont know how unplugging the micro usb and taking the battery out made a difference(i had flashed via odin many times unsuccessfully) but i cannot thank you enough
Glad it worked for you.
We're all here to help each other out.
Cheers.
If you wnat to install twrp and you don't like Odin too much I recomend you the app TWRP manager, you just need root, it's a very simple app
I prefer flashing TWRP via Odin as it has never failed for me.
I just rebooted my phone into recovery mode using this quick reboot pro app, it worked fine, I just wanted to test out the app so I wanted to reboot. I pressed the reboot button in TWRP, I pressed system, I saw the boot logo, but it didn't boot and it just entered the TWRP. I tried to reboot again, the same thing happened. I'm basically stuck in the recovery. I didn't try wiping data and cache or anything like that, I don't want to mess up my phone more. Can someone help me out here, I don't know what to do to fix it

Hello there, i had the sane problem one Day, never use an App tha reboots into recovery or bootloader, it Will be stock. For the fix, You have to flash the official Samsung firmware 5.1.1 or 6.0.1 via odin And your Phone Will be Just fine.

Or just reflash twrp with odin. This will reset the reboot flag.
As said use the button combo to boot to recovery and you won't have an issue.

Do you have latest TWRP (3.2.3-0),enough battery and you don't need what's on your phone? Would try to Format Data ("Type yes to continue") than Advanced Wipe than flash https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77716720&postcount=46
