[Q] [GT-S7710] Samsung Bootloop - Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 Questions & Answers

Hello!
Today I started rooting my S7710 for linking Apps to external SD! Everything works fine, since I tried to convert the "Internet-App" (Systemapp) to an UserApp -> maybe you know the function of Link2SD.
After pressing the "Convert" button, the App tolds me to reboot my device - well, holding the power button -> select "reboot" -> bootloop with samsung logo.
Since then, I tried several ways to fix this problem:
1.) Re-flash rooted ROM - useless
2.) Re-flash OFFICIAL ROM of samMobile - useless
3.) Re-flash OFFICIAL ROM, afterwards CWM - useless
Two things to point 2:
When I tried to access the CWM-Recovery by holding VOLUP+HOME+POWER my device restarted 2-3 times (recognized by vibrations, display was black)
after those restarts, these images appeared:
andre-k.at/img/image1.jpeg
andre-k.at/img/image2jpeg
4.) Re-flash via Samsung KIES, ODIN-Mode -> "Firmware Actualization and Initialisation" .. also passed and the f**king Bootloop is still there ..
I am at my wit's end, so please help me please !
If you got the right answer for me, I'll sponsor a beer via paypal ;o)
Thanks,
EDIT: SOLVED AFTER FLASHING WITH KIES OFFICIAL -> RECOVERY MODE WORKS AGAIN -> FACTORY RESET / WIPE DATA -> BACK IN PHONE
Thanks so far!

Same Problem-Need some Help
Good evening Karnebi, I have the same problem you used to have with the samsung xcover2 model gt-s7710l. It's stuck in the samsung logo. According to your replies, It seemed I'm not using the official ODIN version, which I wonder If it's possible that you can provide the link for downloading Odin's official version and the ROM for my phone just to compare with the one I have. Greetings from Venezuela.

How to Re-stock P1000 to Gingebread 2.3 | Guide with Links

NOTE : this is not my own procedure but i just wanna share this with you guys since some tab users here are having problems restocking their tab to gingerbread, i have also added some notes and troubleshooting in case there will be an issue flashing the rom
link to the original post credits of course to the writer > how to restock p1000 to gingerbread 2.3
btw, this is a complete and full tutorial/step-by-step guide on how to restock gingerbread rom, so if you did not download all requirements, restocking wont be successful
my story and experience : hey guys, yesterday night, i softbricked my galaxy tab p1000 which was running cm9, it turned out like that when i went to recovery and wipe all data, cache, dalvik, even system, and boot. i tried reflashing the cm9.zip but as it was installing its update, my tab suddenly boot into battery icon, meaning it was already empty (maybe, dont have any idea), then, since it was already 12 midnight, there were no internet cafes open in our village, so i went out though somehow it might be dangerous for me, then, i found an internet cafe open. i rent a pc, first, i tried to go to download mode, so some drivers will be installed, but it kept showing "unkown device recognized" bla bla.. still.. i didnt lose hope. so i searched on google, and i found this site > http://suzhipackz.blogspot.com/2012/07/how-to-re-stock-samsung-galaxy-tab.html , when i finished downloading odin, i opened it to check whether it will read my device or not, first three attempts, it did not. so, i thought of downloading samsung kies so the drivers will be installed (safest way really to install samsung drivers), then i still looked for a smaller file (while waiting for kies to complete its download), then i found that there is a smaller zip file for you to install samsung drivers (see attachment below), i installed it, but still odin cant detect my device (try it, might be just on the pc i rented), so i just waited for kies to complete.. after a couple of minutes, successfully downloaded kies, and installed it. i tried connecting tab to pc with odin opened, i rebooted to download mode again and reconnect tab to pc, and voila! odin read my device! so, since pc has already detected my device, i just waited about 1 1/2 hours for the rom and the pit file and the db data file.... after almost 2 and half hours of crossing fingers, i have revived my tab and restocked it to gingebread 2.3!
HOW TO RESTOCK SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB p1000 to 2.3.3 GINGER BREAD STOCK ROM?

.......wait for it until success, after that disconnect your tab
(if for an instance it stuck on downloading mode but you have already finished flashing, do not worry, you just have to manually hold the power button for it to boot up, it might get into recovery, so please reboot the system (it might also be a touch recovery so please tab the home touch key to continue) then if it keeps on booting on "samsung", do not worry, you are not done yet with the restocking procedure, so please proceed to the next step)

another note : when there is an error for example that flashed on your tab screen like a color red "E:\ " something like that, do not worry, it is the external sd card (i dont have one so it was an error then but not a problem, no worries) just let it be, wait until it finishes

Samsung Tab P1000 stuck in nowhere!
First of all thanks the OP for the brilliant post on how to re-stock GB on P1000.
Earlier today I was fooling around with my P1000 to update it from CM11 to Omnirom 5.0.2, troubles started there. I was trying to install the TWRP recovery over CWM, and that is when all hell broke loose.
1. P1000 couldn't mount my internal SD. The tab was perfectly booting to a previous version of JB CM sapir, which I don't have any clue appeared where from. The storage showed the 2 GB internal memory, but the 12GB internal SD was missing out.
And the CWM errors were E:/can't mound internal SD
2. Now, after wiping data, dalvik, battery stats, formatting and all that, the tab doesn't even boot into the OS. The moment the power button is on, CWM initiates a count down saying, trying to mount SD, but unable to do so. After 20 seconds, the tab starts this whole process again, and thus a loop.
3. I tried to re-stock to GB; but my tab isn't being detected by Odin in download mode. Odin detects the tab when it is turned on and when the tab is on countdown-restart-countdown loop; but not in download mode.
I am a total noob, and I don't want to throw my tab away as I am a student and can't afford to get a new one Someone please help me to fix the issue. Thanks in advance!

Can you try booting the Vol- or the Vol+ button until you see the flashscreen?
Weird.(and making the tablet unbrickable needs a mod which I hope that you don't do)

Well yes, Vol+ takes me to CWM recovery and Vol- takes me to download mode. Odin detects my Tab on CWM; I tried flashing the PIT which resulted in a failure. And on the download mode as I mentioned earlier, Odin doesn't detect my Tab
Well, I am all ears about the mod you're mentioning about, but let's just hope for now that I don't need that

How to WIPE without CWM / NO recovery / only download

Hey guys.
I have been doing a lot of researches before creating this new thread.
Here is my problem with a Samsung Galaxy s3 I9300T (Australia - Vodafone build). I was given the phone, since it was stuck in a boot loop after a software update issue with Kies (I think from memory 4.2 or something).
The phone boots up, displays the Vodafone logo, and is stuck on the Samsung logo. The phone doesn't restart but stays idle there.
It is impossible to reach the download mode with the use of the 3 buttons, but a USB JIB I bought on ebay does the trick.
Odin recognizes the phone, I can flash a stock Kernel from Samsmobile or root/install the CWM.
BUT, there is no way (so far?) to reach the recovery mode.
I tried to flash a new boot loader, tried to check any physical issue with the buttons, but nothing seems wrong.
I have been looking for tools such a android toolbox/toolkit etc, in the hope one would be able to wipe/flash the nand or even unbrick or whatsoever, from a download mode and not ADB, since I there no fast boot available.
I am ready to try anything, since there's nothing to loose here.
I'm running windows 7 from Parallel desktop.
Thanks mates.

I tried 2 different firmware from SAMSmobile, after flashing in Odin, nothing changes. The phone reboots (if the case is ticked) and stays stuck on the samsung logo, after the vodafone splash screen.

How can I perform what you call a "full system reinstall comprehensive of PIT image"?
I have stock firmware, but no PIT file or CSC or whatsoever.
what do you mean by losing EFS? (encryption ??)
Any help is much appreciated.

efs is a system partition wich contains your phone's hardware serial numbers, such as imei, wi-fi mac ecc... losing this means you can't connect to phone network until you restore it(i'm not sure you lose it)
i found this guide here on the forum to restore from brick's or similiar, i think you can try this if normal flashing don't work:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/solved-pit-bricked-dead-problem-gt-t2535367
When you flash full firmware from Samsung (.tar.md5), it includes things such as bootloader, tz, modem, system, cache, preload and the recovery. Just make sure to download it from site such as sammobile, and you can check yourself if your .tar.md5 you're about to flash includes these things using i.e. 7zip.
Untick "auto reboot" option and flash it. After it's done, it won't auto reboot but Odin will change text to "RESET!", this is a signal for you that it's finished.
Hold on Vol-Up+Home+Power for about 7 seconds, until you see Samsung Galaxy S3 logo. It MUST enter stock recovery you've just flashed, unless your hardware is broken. From there you can select Wipe data / factory reset.
Good luck.

Yes this is what I did.
But after "RESET" doing it, holding the buttons won't let me reach the recovery.
Is there a way to access it ? like for instance a USB JIG allowed me to access the DOWNLOAD mode; whereas holding the buttons never let me.

I don't think so. Probably your buttons are broken then.

I still do not understand that NO software is able to address the phone, like the recovery mode does.
We can flash from a computer, how come not to wipe from a computer.
assuming that someone has no screen or broken buttons, i'm sure there's a way to access wipe and/or access the recovery to flash a stock rom.
Thanks

Hey, yes I tried the link, but again I cannot access the recovery to flash the .zip file.
When I hold the buttons as soon as the logo "galaxy s III GTI9300" appears, the screen goes black and the logo comes back again.
If I release one button, the vodafone splash screen appears, and the boot is stuck on the samsung logo.
I assume, the buttons are working because of what I just explained.
But again, I cannot access the recovery.
Last week, for some reason, after flashing I has a "setup wizard" from appeared, and crashed. that was the only time. I could see the lights under the touch buttons coming on. After the crash, I tried to reinstall and couldn't do it.
I am still sure there should be a way to wipe the nand completely or install from the SD card via the download mode.
Any help is welcome

Boot Loop after installing a custom ROM

Hello..!!
I need some help here. I tried to flash a custom ROM (X-Note (build 6.0) for Galaxy S5 GM900F) and then flash a new bootloader, the problem is that my device will never pass the booting process. I was stuck with the logo and black screen. I have searched and tried tons of tutorials and fixes but have not solved it.
I even tried to wipe Dalvik cache, wipe data, format system. I even put out the battery and leave it for sometimes, then on but the problem is still there.
This link to bootloader that I downloaded and flashed using Odin (after successfully installing custom ROM) and also the instructions that I followed to install the custom ROM.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712475277
When I try to re-install stock Samsung via Odin, it shows a Fail message. I don't know where to go from here and I'm really worry that my phone will never come to work.
Please help me to solve it.

I'm too busy today to describe this in detail.. but here are a few comments that may help you.
First, it is fixable. Usually it's enough to boot to recovery mode (phone off, then press and hold home + volume up + power buttons). Then from the recovery mode menu, choose wipe system cache. Then reboot. If you still have an issue then try a system data format from the Settings menu (this will erase user files!).
And as a last resort, restore a backup (if you have one) or a full, stock firmware image with Odin or Heimdall. Odin is infamous for being a bit picky, so don't panic if you get a failed message. That happens to all of us. Look for a detailed Odin tutorial or how to flash back to stock firmware thread that has Odin tips e.g. use a different USB cable + USB port. Temporarily turn off anti virus on your PC.. If the Odin write fails, do not close the Odin window. Just pull the battery and USB cable from your phone again.. put the battery back.. go back to download mode (home + volume down + power), plug the USB cable back, then press the start button in Odin again. It's important that the Odin window was open the whole time.
It may take a few tries (Odin can be frustrating) but you'll succeed.

Thanks for your words, you give me some hope because I thought my phone is now useless. I'll try again as you said.

Solution to your problem:
You will need to download the NK1 version of kitkat 4.4.2 stock firmware.
1) install samsung kies or samsung usb drivers so that your PC will detect your phone.
2) Switchoff your phone first and put it in download mode by pressing volume down and home button and power button at the same time.
3) connect your phone to your PC through the usb cable and start odin. (The com port turns blue in odin which means phone is detected).
4) In odin, check the "Nand erase all" in the checkbox and then click on "AP" buttion and select the "G7102DDUBNK1_G7102ODDBNK1_G7102DDUBNK1_HOME.tar" file.
5) Click the start button and wait for 5 mins till the OS is installed.
6) After installation, on your phone it might show 'memory damaged' and 'erase memory'. Don't worry, nothing is damaged or serious, just click to reset and everything will be fine.
7) Done!
I have provided the NK1 version link to you from my google drive account:

Thanks guys
Problem solved and it is working now :fingers-crossed:
I have this same problem and I downloaded the above file and followed the instructions accordingly, after flashing it is still stuck at REBOOTING TO RECOVERY for about one hour now.I guessing it might be related to hardware.

Which firmware were you on before the first boot loop? Flash that firmware, and don't forget to pull the battery afterwards.
(Don't hit thanks, hit the phone on a pillow/bed of you think its hardware related).

Constant restarts

Hello
Since this morning my Note 3 has died. I went to turn it on and it did not go beyond the initial Samsung boot screen.
I have already tried almost everything:
- Enter in recovery mode and make wipe dalvik and cache
- Enter in recovery mode and make wipe factory reset
- Install a new ROM for Odin
When Odin finishes, he gives me the PASS in green as all correct. I start the phone, enter the initial configuration screens, let me put the language, wifi, Google account but when the automatic configuration of the applications starts, it restarts and loops in trying to boot, but does not pass the Samsung logo.
I tried to install the ROM again, in case there had been any problems during the installation (despite giving the PASS in green), but it does not work.
The only thing I can think of is to put another type of ROM of those in which the option Re-Partition is marked, which I think is more exhaustive, but I'm not clear what kind of ROMs those are.
I would appreciate any help with the ROMs with Re-Partition, or any other suggestion that you could give me, to see if I can resuscitate it.
Are you performing a factory reset after flashing a stock ROM with Odin and before the phone boots the stock ROM for the first time?
but when the automatic configuration of the applications starts, it restarts
Reads as an app or something is the problem .
Thank you very much for your responses. After searching a lot, I found a ROM of 4 files + PIT. After installing it, the phone works correctly.
