Hey, a few days ago my gf's Xcover stopped working, it shows the samsung xcover 2 screen and then the screen immediately goes all black and nothing happens.
The problem is it won't boot, recovery won't open, the only thing that works is odin mode.
I tried to install CWM with odin, but can't open it, tried re-installing the original firmware from sammobile but it still won't boot.
The phone isn't rooted and the CWM recovery I installed was from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2352252
Really need some more experienced help with this
Thanks and best regards

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...

flash a recovery TWRP
wipe /data /system /cache /dalvik
then flash a fresh/latest firmware through odin and remove mem card and sim card re-insert
hope it works
I have a Note 3 (SM-N9005) running Lollipop 5.0 I tried to root (n900-cwm-recovery-6.0.5.0-kk(0812) via Odin. It PASSED) but couldn't get to custom recovery. It would only go to download mode with a message at the top of the screen saying "could not do normal boot". Tried re-flashing 3 times but still same result
So i re-flashed stock ROM with the idea to start again. Got a PASS according to Odin.
But now the phone mostly freezes at the Samsung boot screen and then shuts down. Occasionally it makes it all the way to starting but then shuts down again. Any ideas please??
Thanks
PS. I can get to stock recovery and download mode
Hi,
After a LineageOS update, my Samsung S5 (G900F) was working and suddenly shouted down. I tried to restart it but it was booting in loop (always without passing through the first Samsung Galaxy S5 logo). As I wasn't being able to restart it I tried to fix it by installing the stock rom through Odin. It installed successfully and the phone rebooted with images in the screen. If I touch the phone I can hear the touch working and volume also works but I don't have image, not even while booting the phone.
Now, the only way I have to see image (in the download mode only) is to take off the battery for a few minutes and then restart the phone while pressing the download mode buttons.
I tried several times to install the stock rom through odin but the same thing happens everytime so I am still without image.
Any suggestions?
Thank you. :good:
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.
My Galaxy S4 VE (GT-I9515) crashed. (the screen went black) It was not rooted and ran the latest Andoid 5.0.1 ROM.
When I turned it on, it went into a bootloop, randomly crashed during booting, or turned on normally. I removed sd and sim card and tried a different battery. Furthermore I tried to boot into recovery mode and wiped the system data and the cache. It did not help.
Sometimes it was not possible to get into recovery mode because the phone's screen went black and it rebooted.
Then I tried flashing multiple stock ROM files using Odin, but it did not solve the problem.
After that i tried rooting the device and installed a custom recovery (TWRP), but i still got random crashes during booting and sometimes it got stuck showing the samsung boot animation. The only things that work reliably are the Download Mode and the charging animation.
Now, what can I do to fix my phone?
I read a bit about flashing a .pit file but I don't think that will help?
Is this a hardware or a software issue?
How can I find out, what caused the problem?
