My phone was at 1% battery and i shut it down.Plugged it in charger and it is now stuck at samsung logo.Not rooted no custom recovery pure stock.Tried battery pull for 10 minutes dowsnt work.Tried wipe cache partition same.Any help will be very appreciated.
PS something strange it vibrates 1 or 2 times(or maybe 3 fast vibrations) if i wait at the logo for more minutes but still doesnt boot.
Hey Krismax,
Heve you installed any custom rom before?
If you done that it may damaged your phone to the point you need to repair it for maybe 200 or 300$ or maybe more. The problem with the note 4 i all about that know thing that "saves" the phone off some bad thing but it is doing only that when you root your phone it recognizes it. And even if tou unroot it it will still show as rooted no matter if you flashed stock rom after the rooting.

Hi,
I have a SG Note 4 (n910f), I have not rooted the phone.
Every once in a while the phone turns off and reboots, and then it reboots again and again, it's stuck in a bootloop. However when I wait like 30 minutes to an hour, it eventually succesfully boots and shows my lockscreen, at that point the phone works fine again.
It happens now nearly every day and is getting very annoying.
I only once flashed an original software update from samsung with Odin without voiding the knox warranty.
The only thing I haven't done yet is setting the phone to factory defaults. I'm going to try that today, hopefully it works, but I have a feeling that the problem is hardware related.
I can't get into recorevy mode, and I don't have a custom recovery and i'm afraid if I get that it voids the warranty.
What should I do?
I can't go to a samsung service point when the phone isn't bootlooping cause they'll say nothing is wrong, and if I do go there with a bootloop, it might fix itself again and they say it is fixed, though the next day it goes bootlooping again...
Edit: I can get into standard recovery when the phone doesn't bootloop. Just cleared system data and cache.
After I did that the phone got stuck in a boot loop again

Hello,
my Galaxy S4 got soft bricked recently and I am looking for a solution for 5 days now and now I decided to ask you guys for help since I can't find anyone with the same problem.
I had Albe95 LolliROM 9.0 (15/05/16) [HPA1] flashed on my phone for about 3 weeks and everything was perfect.
I was using my phone when it suddenly restarted itself and it got stuck in a bootloop (SAMSUNG animation). After many attempts I could boot into recovery (TWRP) but it would freeze there and I had to remove the battery...
I could also boot into Download Mode so I decided to flash a stock rom (I9505XXUHOJ2_I9505OXAHOJ2_I9505XXUHOJ2_HOME.tar) which I downloaded from Sammobile. Odin would always stuck at system.img.ext4 but again after many attempts it workted and I had success. When it was booting my phone froze at "optimizing apps". So I had to turn it off and restart again, but this time the phone was always freezing at the first samsung logo and wouldn't go further.
I can still go into Download mode but can't flash anything because eather Odin fails (complete(write) operation failed) or my phone freezes. Sometimes when I boot my phone into Download Mode the screen would do strange things like flickering and weird colors would show in DL Mode.
So my problem:
- booting into Download mode after works though it freezes sometimes
- can't flash roms because phone is freezing all the time
The model # in download mode is 9505? Was the phone ever dropped? You're using the original Samsung USB cable to flash?

Thanks for the reply.
-yes modelnr is 9505.
-i have not dropped my phone recently. I mean its over 3 years old so of course I've dropped it but never really bad and it has no scratches or anything.
-I've tried different cables and samsung cable was one of them.
I also tried all ports of my laptop even tried another pc
Maybe flash the stock rom with a pit file?

I didn't try this pit file thing because I don't understand the meaning of it exactly..
But after many many Odin flash attempts I got a success with a stock rom 5.0.1.
I think I figured out what the problem is but I can't really tell why it's happening (Hardware broken maybe, but which one?)
So after the flashing the stock rom successfully the phone restarted and started the first boot but it froze during the samsung animation again...
I thought maybe if I try a lot of times eventually it will work, so I tried and tried and it always got stuck at samsung animation. (before every boot I had to remove the battery and wait ca 10 sec because otherwise the phone would not start booting at all)
I did not come further than the samsung animation so I removed the battery and placed the phone (I almost gave up).
But after one hour I tried again and this time it passed the samsung animation and got to the Optimization part of the apps. aaaaand it froze there again.
I thought maybe if I wait again for 1 hour I can pass the optimization part. So I did and it really worked. I got to the startscreen.
So the current problem is:
- The phone boots and makes it to the homescreen and freezes after ca 10 seconds. And also I have to wait for about half an hour or one hour to get that far. If I try again right after the freezing I can't get passed the Samsung logo.
What could cause this freezing? Maybe the cpu has to "cool down" in the one hour of waiting and freezes because it gets to hot? I really don't know what it could be.
Something on the motherboard, likely either CPU, EMMC chip, or GPU, is failing. Why or how I don't know, but I'd have a tech look at it.

Before trying anything, simply put the phone in a freezer for 1 hour, then try to put the phone in download mode.

Hallo,
i hope someone can help me here.
After a low battery my phone doesnt turn on any more. After some research i thought it might by the "death battery problem". So i but the phone on Laptop Charge port for 6 hours and i got it booted in to system.
But only for some seconds and it turned of again. So i decided to buy a new battery. Installed it and tried to boot. Sometimes it bootet in to System, sometime just got Blackscreen. I tried hard reset in it showed some errors. That was some days ago. Now it boots and everytime blackscreen. I tried also longer presses like 10 secs and 60secs. I tried fast press for hard reset with boot logo. I have no detection on Windows. I never rooted the phone and it has still stock rom. Must be the latest kitkat 4.4.2 i guess. I checked every cable. No charge led or logo.
Hey dude check out my video https://youtu.be/rpmbk9RFE_U there is step by step instruction how to reflash your rom... Just watch im here for any questions.
My note 4 suddenly froze when I'm using it normally, I had to take out battery then boot up again, now just won't pass the logo Samsung screen, download mode still work but when I tried flashing stock rom it just keep stucking at logo screen ((
I cannot enter recovery mode either, same stucking at logo. Please help, I want to know if my phone can still be saved or should I let it rest forever. Thank you.
Try to change the battery, galaxy note 4 is infamous for its boot loop because of battery failure. I've had experienced it.

I was thinking the same.
Only thing is he got away with (?) flashing it whick would indicate reserve battery capacity.
Regardless replace old or degraded batteries before they cause issues especially Li's. Just part of necessary routine maintenance...
