I've tried the "brick fixes" on this forum, but without luck so far... I can get into download mode, and I've tried flashing with odin from this post which says "passed" to me. After this is reboots into a black screen after the "galaxy S" screen, and nothing can be done except making the capasitive buttons light up...
All help is appreciated!!
FYI I don't have a SD card installed during odin...
Solutions in #6 and #7...
Thanks a ton

Sounds like a boot loop, but I can't figure out why you would get one with the stock odin flash. Try doing a factory reset? it shouldn't be needed, but who knows?
how? tried the "hard reset" whitout luck

In recovery.. there should be a factory reset option. I thought odin did that though.
when it is resetting I can read "mbr checksum error" or similar in yellow text before it's wiping data etc...
Try this ...turn you phone off but keep it plugged into you cpu usb cord and open oidin, next put your phone in download mode and put the needed files in oden and click start I had a hard time getting odin to work right for some reason this may not help but it worked for me. Good luck I don't think you bricked I think you can come out of this.
I assume that you used the partition in ROM Manager? If so I had the same problem as you. The phone would boot up to a black screen with only the buttons working. What I did was flash Eugenes 2.2 Froyo Rom, I surprised that it booted up and worked. After that I flashed back to stock rom and it work as it did before!

I turned the phone off while the usb was connected when the phone if off open odin ounce its open boot up the phone and boot it into download mode from there odin will connect and you can put the files you need into it and click start. This worked well for me when I needed to revert back to factory vibrant after flashing the "Real lag FIX" kernel that made my ear piece not work and some of my buttons not work but boy was my phone snappy and my benchmarks were awesome but what good does that do when your girl calls you and you cant hear her and all she can hear is you saying hellllllllooooooo .
I"ve been trying to flash with odin now for about 2 hours. It gets stuck on DO NOT DISCONNECT. And never finishes.

Ya it was like that for me until I did what I said in my last post, you do have the samsung drivers installed ?
Edit: And you are using this method or this thread HERE

You have managed to get into download mode right? My device is up and running stock now, but gonna try some other ROM now =)
Glad to hear your phone is back up and running .
i know this is an old thread, but i figure this can help someone later... brick is a common search term, and i figure this will come up in a search and this will save time for others...
here's what happened to me. i was flashing back to stock and was in download mode. the blue bar was moving etc and murphy and his dumb law decided to kill my my usb port... i thought the phone was DEAD! nothing i did woke the phone up. no battery indicator, buttons didn't do anything... it was all black. holding up/down and power didnt turn the phone on and into recovery or download mode... the phone was DEAD...
then after scouring the forum forever, i finally got the phone into download mode...
NOTE: i don't recall if the usb wire was plugged into the computer or not... i think it was though...
NOTE2: samsung drivers should have been installed already...
- remove the battery
- hold vol up and vol down buttons
- reinsert battery
i thought WOO HOO!! I GOT INTO DOWNLOAD MODE!!!
the next issue i had was getting odin to recognize the phone... it didn't detect what com port i had. but after a lot of reading, i finally got it to work...
- open odin first
- then get into download mode using the steps above...
after odin recognized the port the phone was plugged into, i flashed back to stock rom using the instructions given on this site... and my dead phone works again...
i was able to fix a dead phone!! this phone could be un-brickable!!
i hope this helps...

Hey Guys,
My Phone is completely stock and i have not installed any firmware but last night my Phone suddenly entered a boot loop which woke me up.
At that moment i just pulled the battery. But this morning my Phone wouldn`t start anymore, it just shows the logo
What i tried:
Boot into recovery: No go, it just displays the blue text booting into recovery
Normaal boot: No go, just shows the samsung logo.
Tried emergengy recovery via samsung kies tool: It ends succesfully with the same result, no boot
What else can i try without voiding warranty?
I want to try anything i can before sending it back to the store because that will take a few weeks before i have a phone again

I'm not sure what type of "bricked" this would be but, I tried to flash my Canadian Fido S4 I337m with a MF3 modem. I did this through Odin Mobile Pro. At first it was all good, it started to restart with a blue android figure. It started to take a really long time and nothing was happening so I decided to turn the phone off. Now the phone won't turn back on and it won't connect to the PC. I have my backup saved on my sd card but I can't get the phone to load at all.
It's currently stuck the battery charging power up screen. I can't post a picture since I haven't posted 10 times apparently... So it's the grey battery icon, the circle in the middle isn't moving whatsoever.
Did a battery pull, tried starting it in safe mode, and tried to restart it in the download mode. All of which have failed.
Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks
*Update*
The blue android figure is back. Does anyone have any information on how long this little android guy is supposed to be around for?

Download Odin 3.07 for the PC.... you flashed the wrong mode... I believe you flashed a US modem not a Canadian on... suggest NC1 can be found in the forum...
With the phone unplugged, press volume down +home+power if you get a warning, release buttons and press voulme up to go to download mode...
Start Odin.... important... take off auto reboot....
there are instructions on how to properly flash the modem... likely in the same thread you found the file.....
Flash only the modem.bin file inside the folder... do not flash the nonhalos file....
Most instructions sau flash once... reboot to download mode.. flash again....
Basically let me know if you can get to download mode... I tried to google blue android on screen but didn't find anything yet... first I have heard of blue... I have seen green dead ones though....

No, I can't seem to get into download mode. It just keeps heading on to the the blue android. I purchased a dongle jig to get it to download mode on ebay hoping that would work.
Method 1 Odin Mobile
Extract TAR and place modem.bin on Internal or External SD Card
Open mobile Odin (free version works but pro is awesome)
Select modem 2 and find extracted bin file
Press flash firmware button
System will boot to download
Hold power button for 10 seconds if download mode in green comes up.( should be blue)
Odin will install modem files
Done
This is what I was following. It said if it comes up as a blue android it's good.

If you put the modem file on an external sd card.... maybe you could pull the card, put it in a usb reader and put the proper modem.bin file on the card and put it back in the phone and power it up.... see what happens. I am guessing it couldn't finish the process because you have the wrong modem file...... Okay so now I realize you are stuck on the mobile odin logo... (blue guy) search google for how to get out of that or go to the mobile odin thread and ask chainfire... it is his app....
I've got the problem fixed. I re-flashed my whole firmware and managed to get the phone into download mode using a USB Jig. This is for reference if anyone encounters the same problem in the near future.
Thanks for the help and advice though.
I was about to sell my rooted Note 4, and I did a "reset phone" in the settings menu to wipe the data out , so I can sell it. When the phone turned back I saw on the top left a blue "recovery mode" message and the next is my phone black, and on the middle of the screen appear every 5-8 sec a green android logo with "Installing System update" but just for a second, and goes back to black.
And again, and again...
What a hell happened?I am stuck.. I tried to take the battery out , waited and put it back, than I was holding the volume up+home+power on bottoms to get a recovery mode menu, but it does the same "flashing" screen thing.. Please help me I have a buyer for this phone , really need to fix it!

I downloaded from there , opened a zip file copied to a folder. Took the phone in download mode, Opened Odin, clicked on AP and got the file to point ( not a zip file anymore) and hit start.
My phone shows downloading, and like a line started from the left (light blue , but only very short, and doesn't move anymore.
The pc's latest log shows ID:0/003> NON-HLOS.bin
So is it stopped ? the phone said don't turn off target, i don't want to brick it so what to do?
I had no choice i unplug it, and took out the battery, still not brick I started all over again, and now the latest log is : boot.img but the line still not moving...
binary size shows : 3793.1 mb
Update , 2nd time it was moving further.. passed boot, recovery.img, latest log : system.img.ext4. the blue line moved 1/2" and it is stopped again. I don't know what to do...

No the firmware file is correct qnd i have tested it. What is exatly happening while you flash firmware?
Ok, i used that 2nd file, and was everything perfect! I got a message on Odin : "PASS" the phone turned on, passed a Samsung logo, the T-Mobile screen turned on, and the T mobile song, and stuck on that screen....
this is a file I used a second time , and I stuck now at boot by the T-Mobile logo
N910TUVU2DOK2_N910TTMB2DOK2_N910TUVU2DOK2_HOME.tar.md5
and this file was the one stuck always at the beginning :
N910TUVS2EPG2_N910TTMB2EPG2_N910TUVS2EPG2_HOME.tarmd5
just a note, my Note 4 was rooted and It wasn't a latest firmware , actually probably like 8 months old or at least 6 month old firmware on it.
WORKING!! 100% Working. I just took out a battery , and was waiting a bit, turned it back and working! Thank You guys!!
you shoud have clear cache and data through recovery after that successful flash..
but you didn't

Wipr cache and make factory reset in recovery to get clean system firmware.
Hello guys,
I guess I won't be the only one having this issue. My phone went dead suddenly, and doesn't boot. It only give a circle with a lightning bolt but not charging, is it a battery issue ?
At the same time, I can only go to download mode, no recovery, and I can flash via Odin, with success, but it doesn't boot up still.
This is driving me crazy and I am not sure whether it's a hardware or software issue !!!
Anyone having any thoughts on this ?
Thank you.
Turn your phone off. Put it on the charger. Leave it alone for at least 1/3 of the day. I've been using Android for a long time. This usually happens to my Androids, at least once in their lifetime. It should be good to go afterwards.
PS: Make sure your charger works and don't touch the phone. Let it get a good 8hr charge w/o touching a button.
Let me know if this works for you.

HEY brother.
my case is a bit weird
i bought my s8 running nougat used it for 2 days and it was all good , so i received the Oreo update and updated it using the over the air when I received connected to wifi.
my phone started to reboot randomly even for 30 times per day , i tried several things like wiping cashe and the only solution that reduced the problem was uninstalling my installed apps. basically normal apps like facebook , whatsapp , spotify ,and even stock apps like calculator and music player.
today as usual I woke up picked up my phone and it started rebooting so i uninstalled some apps but it kept rebooting.
sometimes it reboots and get stuck at GALAXAY s8 boot screen [ not samsung flickering screen ] and all i had to do to overcome the boot loop is pressing and holding volume down and power button.
but one time it got stuck and boot looped once and for all. I tried to press volume down and power button to make it reboot again and overcome the bootloop but it rebooted and got stuck at the bootloop.
I tried to access recovery but i couldn't access it.
I can access download mode only.
my phone switches on itself when it is plugged in to charge , i can't turn it off completely to charge it while off.
I reflashed stock firmware and it succeeded using odin but the bootloop is still there.
please help me with my problem SIR.
and thank you really a tons.
sincerely,
Zack.
Did anyone manage to solve this? My phone has started exhibiting the same behavior.
Unable to power on the phone unless it's plugged into the charger, but if plugged in just keep boot looping to the Samsung logo.
I've tried re flashing the latest stock firmware, but this hasn't made any difference.
sounds like a typical case of the battery beginning to fail
Flash twrp and a custom rom... Only solution but go to YouTube and check how to flash twrp s8 oreo? Must watch
Flash back to stock, leave the phone charged until 100% then use the stock recovery or flash twrp and wipe cache and dalvik
Thanks all for the suggestions.
I've tried to flash twrp but I get the error "Custom Binary(RECOVERY) Blocked by FRP Lock".
I've flashed the stock firmware multiple times successfully via Odin v3.1.13.1 (G950FXXU2CRF7) but this doesn't make any difference.
I still can't boot up the phone. The only thing I can do on the phone is have it plugged in and go into download mode.
I can't boot into recovery.
If I leave it plugged in it will power on, vibrate, boot loop to the Samsung logo all day. (It does not show the charging circle)
Could this be a worse case scenario and be a hardware issue? Don't want to give up hope yet, since I can still flash a firmware with Odin.

It varies depending on what firmware I try to flash it acts differently. All firmwares I try to flash will take a while in "flash analysis" and then to "setup connection" it takes so much time. After wait some time it fails.
I can send you some pictures if needed. When I get home I will.try again and send you the error.
This is what one error looked like trying to flash G955USQK2_Stock_recovery_BoxWares.tar.md5
This is the error.
<10:0/0/004> Odin engine v (ID:3.1207...
<10:0/0/004> File Analysis
<10:0/0/004> Setup Connection
<OSM> All threads completed (succeed 0/failed 1)
Also excuse for PM you, I thought you were going through the same thing but realized this morning during work that it was my post you replied to.
Any Solution??

Hi,

Stuck on Galaxy S8+ and i can only enter the download mood (Odim Mood) nothing else,
I have flashed the last update 2 times and still have the same problem,
Even i cant control the powering OFF ON good,
I have already removed the back side cover to remove the battery cabel from the main board, connecting the usb Cable to be able to enter the download mood.
Hope anyone have an idea or can help.

its Odin mode, not mood LoL
get a fresh download of the firmware youre trying to flash and flash it instead. Get the Frija tool as it downloads the firmware waaaaaay faster than directly from www.sammobile.com/firmwares

Thank you,
Still same issue.
I have now tried another new battery but the same problem,
i am 100% sure it is not Hardware problem.
Samsung always have same these problems but needs much work or using Z3X Box.
Hope for Solution
