[Q] My i9505 stuck logo" samsung galaxy S4..."

hi, today, My i9505 stuck logo" samsung galaxy S4...".
I tried to start a firmware from the Odin app
When I restart my devices can't start, on display "samsung galaxy s4 GT-i9505"
I tried to do the process from rooting the phone, with odin without any luck.
I cant boot into recovery volume up + home + power. It only comes a red pirate android. And it reboots to the Samsunng logo again?
Is there any hope for me?
Please help

Hi Terje
I had almost the same issue since yesterday with my Gt-i9505, with the only exception that recovery mode was still accessable. But everytime i tried to restore a prevoius backup i was stuck again in the logo screen.
Sadly I can't provide you with a link directly since i don't have enough posts. But try to google "droidview unbrick galaxy S4"
My galaxy is finally working again. It is an easy and well written tutorial, so I hope it will help you too.
Good luck!

you don't have to go to recovery, but into download mode and try to reflash with Odin. One thing to be careful: you need to make sure that Odin recognizes the phone...

A. You may have flashed the wrong rom (wrong model). If so you need to reodin (search for odin to stock).
Edit: Before you odin I would pull the battery. Allow the phone to sit for 30 min without the battery in it during that time... ENSURE the battery had enough power to odin before you try it.
B. Or You are in the wrong thread (this is for At&t and your splash screen is international model)

Flashing anything from the 9500 is a no no on the Snapdragon models man. As the guy above said you need to Odin stock rom. Since you were able to flash a rom through recovery you weren't on a locked bootloader. So Odin the amdl stock tar in the pda slot

Samsung Galaxy S5 Stuck at Samsung Logo

Hi guys first i want you to know that my english is bad...
My phone is G900K - SpaceX Rom 5.0
I am using SpaceX Rom 5.0 for weeks and it is buggy, i experience random boot,app crash,fast battery drain and freezes.
Yesterday i reboot my phone and after "Android is Starting" i got message that System Crash or System UI i am not sure what it is but it has System word in error report. Then my phone didn't start so i remove the battery and put it again. After pressing on the Power on Button my S5 starts and i notice the Blue Light in Upper Left didn't Light Up and my phone didn't boot to 2nd Samsung Logo. When i press Power On Button my S5 will turn on and 1st Samsung Logo will appear then It will Turn Off then Vibrates then goes back to 1st Samsung Logo it keeps repeating. Also i try Recovery Mode but i can't enter to it my phone will repeat the same process as i Turn On my phone. I can go to Download Mode, And i flash Stock Rom and after flashing Stock Rom there's a blue text in upper left Recovery Booting... but its not booting into recovery, It will just turn off again then vibrates then goes to 1st Samsung Logo.
If anyone experiencing the situation right now you can comment​

Same issue here. My phone is stuck at RECOVERY BOOTING. Is there anyone who can fix this issue? Thanks.

Boot to download mode (Vol down & Home & Power)
Flash stock ROM from sammobile .com with ODIN
Instructions under the download on their site

Go into download mode and do a firmware upgrade and initialisation through kies3. You will need your serial number and model number( on the white sticker behind the battery. in kies3 go tools> firmware upgrade and initialisation, then follow the on screen steps. I used this when I soft bricked my note 2 when I had it, I personally find it's the best way to restore a samsung device.

You should try first with kies3, it did help me to recover from custom ROM installation.
If it fails, flash stock with Odin3 from phone download mode is your last option.

I'm having the exact same issue! Been trying to flash the stockfirmware, but still stuck in recovery booting loop! Even trying to get into recovery mode has it looping. Kiess 3 says that my serial number is invalid, so matter which number I put in too. Hoping for some help!

Mine is the SM-G900W8 with Telus, so if we have the same model, I could probably give you my serial number cause I never had issues with mine. I know I have read places that sometime when people get stuck in recovery like that, they do a factory wipe and cache wipe in the stock recovery to get it to boot.

This same thing is happening with my s5 Verizon.. Need help to fix this i've tried flashing via odin, factory reseting..nothing worked
Can anybody help me please....thanks

S4 GT-I9515 Black Edition XSG stuck on logo screen

I have Samsung S4 GT-I9515 LTE Black Edition bought in UAE. I had official Android Lollipop updated through air.
Few days ago my phone switched off automatically and when i tried to switch back on it was stuck on Samsung S4 Logo screen. I tried getting in into Android System Recovery by press VolUp+Home+Power but i see the same logo screen with Recovery Booting.... message on the top right corner of the phone, it does not go any further than that.
I am just able to start the download mode in my phone. So i tried flashing it with the stock rom of ver. 4.4.2 which i downloaded from sammobile I9515XXU1ANL1_I9515YJV1AOB1_XSG. After many failed attempts i was finally flash the rom successfully but the problem was not solved.
If i start the mobile in recovery mode it gets off after been stuck on recovery booting screen. if i connect the charger while keeping the mobile off it keeps on vibrating every one second. if i try simple power start it is stuck on the logo screen forever.
Please help me to start my phone i am new to learning flashing phone so please tell me if i am doing anything wrong. Thanks.

You do not need to flash 4.2.2 as the boot loader has now changed. Find lollipop 5.0.1 for the phone you have on Sammobile and flash that instead. Make sure it is for UAE black addition.

Is it me or the phone?

I'm not sure whether I am doing something wrong, or if the phone is softbricked beyond recovery.
This is a Sprint phone. Phone shows the "Samsung Galaxy S4" logo, but will not boot up.
Most of the time it will not enter hard recovery mode (Volume Up + Power + Home), although it has at least once since the issue began. However, performing a wipe date/factory reset did not resolve the issue.
It will enter Download Mode (Volume Down + Power).
I flashed the stock rom (found here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=890129502657577654 ) using Odin 3.09, and got the "Pass" message. However, afterward, the phone would still hang on the "Samsung Galaxy S4" logo.
Next I attempted flashing the pit file for the SPH-L720 (found on this page: https://www.full-repair-firmware.com/p/galaxy-s4.html ) along with the stock rom and got a "Fail" message. Screenshot attached.
Any advice is appreciated.

I just tried flashing the rom alone with Odin 3.12 and got a "Pass". However, all I am getting is the "Samsung Galaxy S4" logo when I press the Power button.

Fyi for anyone else experiencing this issue. I got the rom to install by putting the phone in the freezer for thirty minutes before attempting to flash with Odin. This phone has tended to run hot since I had to replace the digitizer.
