Hello everyone
I am on official 5.0.1 firmware and my phone is rooted
it has been working properly for more than 3 weeks, suddenly yesterday it was switched off because i ran out of battery
after charging it,when I turn it on I am stuck on samsung logo
any help please that doesn't involve wiping data through recovery as I dont want to lose my data?
have you tried to wipe cache only?
also dalvik.
sometimes it helps!

Hi all,
So today my friend asked me to check out his Galaxy S3 because all of a sudden his phone went off and went into a boot loop with just the samsung galaxy s3 start screen appearing then dissapearing. His recovery menu didn't show up but download mode did so I went into ODIN and tried everything (different pc's, usb's, disabling KIES) and kept getting some PIT file error (I had re partition unchecked, i think the error was 'Can't read PIT'). So I gave him it back and asked him to try taking it to Samsung as he has official firmware and stuff.
After I gave him his phone and came home, I had some music playing on my phone and all of a sudden... BAM! I was stuck in a bootloop with the same problem! No idea whatsoever as to why.
Yesterday I flashed CM11 on my Galaxy S4, everything was perfectly fine and today it's stuck in a loop on the Galaxy S4 boot screen (Not samsung logo). I can access recovery and download and have wiped data, cache and dalvik cache and still no luck.
Before CM11 I was on stock samsung 4.4 with knox flag as 0x1
Any help is much appreciated!
Thank You
Hi,
As you can still boot in recovery the best would wipe system and reflash the ROM, also wipe data again just to be sure . Also I will recommend you to flash a CyanogenMod Snapshot rom, as they are usually more stable than nightlies, and the latter can bootloop your device.
Do not worry, usually bootloops are not a main issue .

Hey guys. I tried to find similar topic but I couldn't.
I'm facing a problem with my Galaxy S4 i9500. Around a mouth ago I flushed kitkat with odin. After that I rooted it. The phone was working properly until couple of days ago. It start freezing and restarting. 2 days ago couldn't start at all. Stuck on SAMSUNG logo. I tried to flash kitkat again , but it failed. I was able to flash CWM recovery 6.0.3.3-i9500 and clean the cache, delvik cache and tried to restore the manufacturer settings. After rebooting, I see Samsung logo. phone restart and stuck on the Samsung logo again.
Hopefully someone can help me out.
Thank you.
Doesn't sound like a software problem. I think you have some hardware failure. I don't think it's your power button though, otherwise you wouldn't be able to stay in download mode for more then a few sec.
That doesn't sound good. What hardware problem might be? The phone has never been dropped and always been in a case.

Did you remove all knox related apps when you rooted?
I recommend..flash stock rom.
After that..flash philz and deknox script..
Then reroot via philz itself..(philz options reroot)

Hi guys
I have a nexus 7 that was working perfectly with kitkat until one day it just hung on the boot logo and wouldn't go passed it no matter how many time i rebooted it.
I updated it to lollipop and it now boots up fine but its so slow it almost unusable.
I've tried putting kitkat back on it (and clearing the cache) but every time i do it goes back to hanging at the boot logo.
Any ideas what's going on?
Clearing cache is not sufficient when going back in time, you need to wipe your data, too.
The phone hasn't been rooted or otherwise tinkered with and is currently on android 5.0,.
Recently the phone has started boot-looping (never gets past the black S5-Active screen), though it strangely works fine while on the charger. This seems to have started when it tried to download an ota update from att a few days ago and the install failed.
I've tried using odin to flash it back to stock and start over, but odin seems to always fail, i can boot into stock recovery just fine and it will stay there once you get there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Tried clearing the caches from recovery?
yes, have cleared caches, and wiped data/Factory reset. neither seemed to have any effect.
Hello everyonhi everyone,
i had no idea the Gaslaxy 4 could hava such a active group afther all this years.
any way my wife SM-T230 deside to reboot last week and never got pass the samsung animation.
its still on the last(maybe not) official room, no root, no adblock nothing, i try to use the system recovery (wipe data/factory reset), and for the first time the tablet at least made the music on the boot but still wont go pass the samsung animation.
should i try to install another rom or maybe the official one again? or did he die of old age?
thx in advance.
You could try to download Odin with it you can flash official samsung firmwares. If it's some weird memory corruption that should fix it (maybe).
