Today my father's Galaxy S5 SM-G900F freeze after connecting to PC when I tried to copy some photos to PC. After that it started bootloop. Phone was ALL STOCK, no root, no twrp, no nothing without original latest android 6.01 directly from Samsung.
First thing I tried was wipe cache and factory reset. Nothing changed. Then I tried to download new firmware via Kies3, it took some time, update succesfull but still bootloop. Next I tried to put latest firmware G900FXXS1CPI6_G900FXEO1CPE2_XEO via Odin. Everything fine, succesfull but still no success, bootloop. Then I flash latest twrp on it. Twrp boot fine, I tried wipe, nothing changed. What can I do? Phone is bricked permamently or there is something I can do? TIA for any clue! I've read tons of forums and sites and everywhere told to flash firmware but it not worked for me
update: I also discovered strange thing when I tried to flash via twrp. After few second flashing (blue bar does not go forward) phone reboot itself and stuck on Samsung logo.

I think you must try a repair rom its come multi package boot loader and modem and ap and thetr is the pit file and be sure to get the proper one for your device and try to flash via odin
Thanks but it didn't work for me. I just tried 4 files (BL/AP/CP/CSC) and 5 files (+PIT). Everything success in Odin, recovery back to stock samsung but phone can't boot. Few times restart then stuck on samsung logo. Is any other way to try?

I did something stupid and flashed this Bootloader with odin on my Sprint GS5 US G900P. After the flash seemed to go ok it just re-boots and stays on the Sprint Logo. I can Vol up and down to get to recovery and Download mode but I'm not sure what I should be re-flashing to get my phone to boot up again?
Can someone help please?
I re-flashed my boot to NE5 Galaxy_S5_spr_Stock.Kernel_NE5.tar from here here. Now it gets past the logos and starts to load but freezes the little google loading animation and then goes to screen black
try this
as you can enter download mode
just flash stock firmware
before boot phone go to recovery mode (after flash)
wipe all
wipe data factory reset
wipe cache partition
reboot
Thanks for the suggestion AEkiz. I couldn't find a stock firmware. Links seemed to be dead around here and I couln't find it on the Samsung site.
However this has semi-worked for me:
I flashed 5.0 imgae SM-G900P_OA6_FullRestore.exe
Install seemed to work just fine.
Then I reinstalled my Backup of (Mystery build) 4.4.2
Installed Galaxy_S5_spr_Stock.Kernel_NK4.zip form the file All_Kernels_thru_OA6.zip via Odin
Then my device just booted!
But there are some issues:
1. My device still says it's running OA6 even though I flashed NK4. Oddly enough it WAS on NE5 in the first place but when I tried to flash and NE5 firmware it got stuck on the Google logo. now I'm just confused on all these Nxx versions.
2. My fingerprint scanner is now dead.
3. My camera has a bunch of funky artifacts so I can't really use it anymore.

Seek firmware for your phone in these sites SamMobile or Samsung Updates
I own a Canadian S 4. I used TWRP to try and flash CM 13 and followed instructions as to how to do it. I also made a backup with TWRP. After trying many things to eliminate the boot loop, I am still left with the boot loop as I cannot get the recovery to load or anything else. Help!. I have tried all the suggested methods to try and cure the boot loop. I have also tried flashing the original ROM, and that will not work either. Lost as to what to do at this point.
Do you get any Odin error messages when flashing the stock ROM? Where did you get the stock ROM? You have an i337m?
I understand @audit13 questions... and I've used Oden... but may I suggest Samsung Kies emergency firmware recovery from a computer which i have also used but can't remember the differences between Kies and Oden..
Depending on the firmware on the phone Kies may not be supported. Smartswitch replaced Kies.
HI, I have tried to root my S5 900I but failed badly, have done other phones in the past but somehow stuffed this.
The phone is stuck on downloading screen and cannot do normal boot.
I Started with flashing "recovery.tar.md5" 1st which passed in Odin but phone stuck on downloading screen, then I went into recovery and tried reset and flash CF Auto Root but still not working.
Then flashed twrp.kit.tar and still no normal boot but I can get into recovery Team Win, have tried numerous wipes and installing more CF Auto Root's and also tried flashing Miui Rom.
I believe I have screwed up the stock rom and don't know what to do next.
appreciate any help

Same happened to my wife's Galaxy Grand Prime months ago; stuck at downloading mode after rooting and installing TWRP recovery. The problem was with the version of TWRP recovery I was installing. Looks like I was installing the wrong one (although the website I downloaded it from states that it's the correct one for the device model). I tried different versions from different websites and was about to wipe everything and flash the stock rom but finally I got the correct one and that fixed the problem. Hope that helps.

Thanks, I'll keep trying different TWRP, have tries so many but have changed the outcome yet
I've been trying to *fix* my phone for the past 10 hours and not having much luck. I have tried to flash stock 6.0 ROMs using the TWRP and it fails (not sure why).
I flashed a 6.0 ROM, which didn't include the bootloader and modem and the phone was stuck at the SAMSUNG logo.
I then flashed a stock 6.0 ROM using ODIN from this link: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/87542/G900IDVU1CPG2_G900IXSA1CPG2_XSA/
After waiting about 15 minutes, the phone went beyond the SAMSUNG logo and displayed that the apps were initialising. It then went back to the SAMSUNG logo.
I used odin to flash the bootloader and modem found from another thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/s5-g900i-marshmallow-bootloader-modem-t3382754
I've since flashed TWRP again, done a wipe / factory reset and then flashed the ROM again from sammobile (which includes the recovery) so I then immediately flashed the TWRP again.
What am I doing wrong here? Why wont the phone go past the SAMSUNG logo?
Before leaving the office I done the flashing again and halfway home in the car the phone booted fine as normal.
No ideas what happened before. I effing hate this phone.
hi
ive got a s8, which was rooted using magisk, but was having issue, so was advised to unroot, remote and try superSU instead.
in the process of flashing stock rom AND 8.0, the phone now boots up to black screen showing verification failed, only option to reset.
when i press reset, all it does is restarts, loads up TWRP which had been installed before,
TWRP runs some program and fails and then phone goes back to black screen showing verification failed.
ive booted it into download mode, in the hope that i can just start again by simply lashing fresh stock rom, but it connects to odin fine, but when i click start, it gives a red error every time.
so i cant access the standard recovery menu as ive got TWRP so that loads instead and it looks as that is corrupted and i cant flash new fresh rom from download as odin brings up issue
ive check another phone and there is no issue with odin or the usb-c cable,
there is an issue with the s8 and odin does not like something in the s8 so wont let me flash anything to it,
any advice would be greatly appreicated.
When you flashed the stock rom using odin did you flash a bootloader aswell as the rom or did you just flash the rom the problem might be that the bootloader was for pie and the rom is oreo or vice versa whenever I flash back to stock I fill all but one of the boxes in odin
i suspect it was all oreo, as i downloaded as a complete file but ill check and get back to you
thanks for advice.
