Dear all
SM-N9005 running stock 5.0. Initially tried CWM n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.7-kk(0125) but couldn't get phone to boot.
Then tried rooting with twrp-2.8.7.0-hlte-4.4.img.tar. Successful root but phone kept freezing and crashing.
Went back to stock 5.0 (via ODIN and also again with smart switch)
Now phone keeps freezing and crashing. Sometimes make a loud buzzing noise when it freezes.
Don't know what to do next. Any ideas please?
After flashing back to stock, did you perform a factory wipe before booting the rom for the first time?
Not initially. But i have since. Didn't stop the crashing.
I should add that as the phone rebooted it kept freezing as apps were initialized. So i persisted in restating. Initialized apps didn't need to be re-initialized so each time the phone started the number of apps to re-initialize was less. Eventually the phone reached setup, crashing along the way.
Should i now reflash, then factory wipe then reboot just to be sure?
Some confusion here root is not recovery .
Sugest flashing a recovery and in mounts and storage Format .
System Data Cache .
Boot to download mode and flash stock rom via Odin .
Factory reset once it boots then at least you have clean firmware .

hi,
so I've updated to 0E3 using Kies. The phone booted fine. Then I flashed CF Auto Root using Odin, phone booted fine, root was working. Then I wanted to flash TWRP, but accidently flashed CF Auto Root again. This time phone didn't boot, upoen booting it says unfortunately ... has closed, and so for all the apps, clock, touchwiz ui etc etc etc How can I get back into the phone? I've tried clearing dalvik and cache, it boots, says optimizing apps, but then same happens, unfortunately closed for all the apps
Reflash the rom you are on.
Otherwise factory reset.
I recently updating cyanogen12 to cyanogen13. Things were running well but while running backup I ran out of memory.
Realised I want installing lots of old apps I no longer used so thought I would factory reset and start again!!! Found out the hard way that this is not the done thing.
Now my phone starts to boot into recovery and all that happens is the 'Teamwin' page just flashes on and off. Is there any way to get the phone back or have I bricked it?
Thank you for any assistance
Flash TWRP with ODIN again, see if it boots, if not, flash CM13 without wiping from TWRP and see if it boots then
Make sure you clear the caches from TWRP, might be an idea to wipe SYSTEM before flashing CM13 again too
As long as you don't wipe DATA or INTERNAL STORAGE, you're apps etc will remain
My Note 3 crashed earlier on and wouldn't reboot for anything.
I managed to get into the Recovery Menu and wiped the Cache Partition, but no dice.
I have since reset to factory and re-wiped the Cache Partition, but still no dice.
Now all I get is the music when the logo appears and then the Samsung Logo with the sparkles behind it constantly. Nothing else works, and it doesn't move on after half an hour.
I can't force a reset through Kies, and I don't have any idea what to do now.
The device was originally rooted, I can't remember how. Its been an age since it was done.
Any help or advice much appreciated.
Usual answer .
Flash stock rom via Odin .

Thanks. Was a bigger job than I imagined.
The update via ODIN kept failing, and it turned out I needed a PIT file.
Managed to flash the firmware (which failed), then unplugged and replugged the phone in and then flashed the PIT file.
I then needed to wipe the Cache Partition and reboot (as the Cache wouldn't mount).
Then I needed to re-wipe all files/factory reset, followed by another Cache Wipe.
Now phone is back up and running and I have the great task of recovering everything. Good job we have cloud backups.
Thanks very much for your advice.
Hello
I have a Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 SM-T230 that is not booting correctly.
I got it in a non working condition, kept rebooting when turned on.
I reflashed the stock ROM using Odin after installing TWRP but this would results in the tablet getting to the choose your language screen then restarting itself.
I tried the below versions of the stock ROM but they all have the same result:
T230XXU0ANG3_T230SER0ANG2_T230XXU0ANG3_HOME.tar.md 5
T230XXU0ANJ4_T230BTU0ANJ2_T230XXU0ANJ4_HOME.tar.md 5
T230XXU0ANK3_T230BSE0ANK1_T230XXU0ANK3_HOME.tar.md 5
StockRoms-Series_T230(NU)+V1.6.3
The custom ROMs I have tried get stuck on their startup/boot screen.
I have also tried:
Wiping all david, cache, data, system, internal.
Re partitioning using DEGASWIFI_HIDDEN_100M.pit
Using Odin 3.9 and 3.12 with the md5 file in the AP section
TWRP openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-degas and TRWP_2.8.7.0_EUR_VERSION
The custom ROMs cm-v13-degaswifi-kids-unofficial-20170713, ACHERON_ROM_V2.3.5_SM_T230_NU and [KK] [SM-T231/T230/NU] + Android 5.0 Lollipop Material Design
Combinations of reflashing, factory reseting, cache wiping.
Kies recovery but it will not maintain a connection, keeps disconnecting the tablet
Fixing partitions in TWRP
The only thing left to do as far as I am aware is to NAND Erase all but I am not sure if recovering after doing that is feasible.
Update: Tried Nand erasing, then re partitioning and reflashing of stock firmware, no change.
Tried EFS clear and Phone bootloader update.
Now the partitions appear to be broken and re partitioning with the pit file and reflashing does not fix it, cannot mount data or system.
Any suggestions to resolve this issue?
Thank you
Went to reboot my phone after updating some apps via Google Play. I'm running stock NMJ32F. Now my phone isn't booting and is stuck on the boot animation. Let it sit for 10 min. I turn it off, then tried again a few minutes later and let it sit for another 10 min. I went into TWRP and cleared cache and let it try to boot for another few min, but it doesn't look like it will boot. Is there anyway to troubleshoot without flashing the image and losing all my stuff?
I already transferred all my internal storage, but setting up the phone again and changing all the settings of apps and the system is a tedious and time-consuming process.
If I were on another phone, I'd probably be running a custom ROM and could just reflash the ROM or kernel and then only have to change a few system settings.
EDIT: I flashed the full NMJ32F factory image and nothing was wiped! I just need to flash magisk and xposed again and I should be fine. Looks like everything was preserved. Hooray!

If you only flash System, Boot and Vendor partitions are fine.
If trying to recover always try a dirty flash and clean the cache.
Also make a backup in TWRP so you can recover without losing data.
When I have TWRP, I usually backup once a week and keep the last backup.
This allows recovery with no more than a weeks worth of data lost.
