Hello,
My dad bought a samsung s5 duos about 2 years ago, recently it started to hang and freeze then it went into a bootloop. I have tried flashing through ODIN the firmware but I cant get the phone to boot.
Its stuck now on recovery booting in blue at the boot screen. I tried flashing twrp through odin and using the option Emergency software recovery and initialization in Smart Switch, but both options gave me the same result.
Any help/guidance would be truly appreciated.
Try to search to the latest MM bootloader and modem and flash it by odin

www.sammobile.com/firmwares go there, download the latest tar.md5 for your phone, flash it in Odin. its a super slow d/l, but it s the original source, directly from samsung
heres your specific device link

Thanks for the help guys. I took it to a shop and had it fixed, turns out it was a hardware issue not software.

Hi,
I'm new to the forum and have a similar problem with my phone. I've used odin and the latest firmware, cleared cache, factory reset, new battery, etc. But seems to just be getting worse. Did they tell you what the hardware problem was?

Have you took backup of your ROM first..??
No..?? Then flash the latest firmware using ODIN V3.07.

There was a similar issue with a fellow friend yesterday and he was also stuck at samsung boot and later could solve only after a data wipe from stock recovery however u still give it a try flashing a firmware again
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2323783
This issue is occuring coz of some bad file or apps after updating to latest firmware
hope u get ur data back finger crossed
The final resort way a hard reset.. bt just came to know that some previous aaps/data might have gone mismatched to the new firmware..
Next will be more cautious..

Buddy you are in Panic. Flashing firmware willn't even touch your setting. It just upgrade.
Hello there,
I've spent my entire day trying to fix my Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910F), without much success.
So what happened was that the phone would occasionally freeze, turn it's self off and reboot into download mode and say that it wasn't able to boot normally. But it usually just booted after pulling the battery.
So I thought I would just try to install the stock firmware(4.4) and go from there. And that worked fine (eventually) but the problem remained.
Why not try again, I foolishly thought. So I tried to download a more recent firmware(6.0), but it wouldn't install completely. It got stuck in Odin around half, saying: "FAIL!(WRITE)". Tried again using the older firmware(4.4), but the same result.
Now whenever I try to turn on the phone it immediately jumps to download mode saying that something went wrong while installing the firmware.
I have done a couple of things to try and resolve this issue:
- I have tried to flash BL,CP,AP and Pit from a recovery firmware without much luck.
- I have tried using Odin 3.09 and 3.11.1
There was one thing that kinda helped once, which was flashing twrp and all of a sudden it worked and actually turned on. But genius me decided that I had to try again and update to the newest version. Which wasn't really smart because again the flashing of the firmware failed.
If anyone could please help me out. I have spent nearly two days trying to fix this darn thing. I really just want it fixed

I hadn't, I google searched multiple times for such a topic, but didn't find any.
Besides using the SD card to flash the firmware I had already tried what was listed there.
But for the sake of it, I tried again. For some reason, this time it did work!
Many thanks for the tip!
I'm just left with one question, the recovery firmware you provided in the topic is german, but I have a Dutch phone. Will that create any issue's with network connectivity?

First, flash that recovery firmware, once your device starts working normal, flash your region specific stock rom from sammobile.

Thank you so much for your help. I tried to see if the initial problem was resolved, but it still isn't. The phone sometimes doesn't boot and goes straight into download mode. I'm starting to think that it's a hardware issue, but I'm not sure. Any ideas?

Must be hardware.
Anyway, i would do this
- flash twrp for Note 4 (look for it) from odin
- fladh rom from twrp (not from odin)

Hello everyone,
I have a friend who uses a S4. He was on marshmallow 6.0.1 twrp3.0.2.0. Suddenly the phone turns off, and wont boot anymore to android.
We tried to wipe data+cache+system+dalvik, and install MM 6.0.1 again and install stock 4.4.4 and 5.0.1. All led to fail.
Is it a pit file case or a broken bootloader ? Or it might be some sort of hardware issue ? Thank you.
Could be hardware.
What is the Odin error message when trying to flash stock roms?
It might be a hardware.
No error occurs in odin. It flashes and passes !!
But when i try to boot, the phone always gets stuck on SAMSUNG.
Yeah, you're not doing anything wrong, probably a hardware issue

It's probably the GPU.
Recovery and download mode don't need the GPU to function, so that's why they work.
But android does need it, so that why it doesn't work.
I took the phone to a mobile shop today.. The guy told me that overheating caused this.
Very bad news
But this is so weird.. We all know that the s3 at previous versions of android OS used to boil on moderate~heavy usage and i'm still on my s3 since 2012, and it still didnt show any kind of hardware-related problems... But anw i think i should stick to a safe side and start backing up my important stuff online

Sorry about your phone mate..
So basically my S7 Edge ended up in a bootloop and I don't know why.. It had some problems, ended up in a bootloop from time to time, but after the battery drained I could restart it and it worked.
Since 3 days ago it constantly is in a bootloop, when I try to start the phone. Tried to let the battery drain, but still if I try to restart the phone, it's in a bootloop. Then I even can't access recovery or download mode...
I can access the recovery mode and download mode, after draining the battery.
I already tried: wiping cache and factory reset. Still bootloop, if I start the phone.
I had the idea of flashing a custom rom, but I didn't enable the OEM unlock..
What else can I try to get this phone back to work?.. [I am currently using my old Galaxy Nexus from 2011 and it runs surprisingly fine ]
EDIT: I got stock rom and stock recovery, so basically untouched stock.
Thank you guys in advance

download stock rom from sammobile and flash through Odin after booting into download mode. search google or go through the guide section of the forum on how-to do it. you should be fine.
Do I have to install the Stock ROM of my carrier? I bought the phone via Vodafone in Germany, but I dont think, that it is branded.

I did like you said and it still gets stuck on the Samsung logo and after that bootlooping all the damn time.. It passes the "Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge screen, but always gets stuck after that..
EDIT: Tried to get into recovery mode an the display got wierdly stuck on the first screen at "installing system update".. There was a wide black stripe at the lowert part of the display and many many thin black stripes thoughout the whole display. Since then it is unresponsive for anything..
Are you sure that your phone doesnt have any hardware issues?
If not then search for details on Odin's options. Maybe theres an option for a more theral wiping.
Other than these i honestly dont know what else can be done exccept for sending to samsung support center.

Sending in won't help I think, because my display is shattered a bit. Had the problems before that too..
I have a similar situation. So far I have not found a solution. the phone is lying around idly. I store it for experiments)))
Hey guys, I have a phone here S8 that has just been stuck on the S8 Logo screen, i can access download mode but cannot access recovery mode. I have flashed Stock firmware in odin and it passes successfully but doesn't go past the logo, is there anything else i can try?
Which stock rom are you trying to flash?
I'm having the exact same issue. I did solve one previous issue (the ODIN FAIL) using the trick of pressing Bixby + Vol Down + Power real quick but now every stock rom I flash Odin says PASS but still can't access recovery nor get past the samsung logo.
I installed AQF7 bootloader. Then went straight to latest CRD7 Oreo. Then tried to go back to AQL5 and still nothing. Which version should I flash ??? Did I do something worse?? I can still get to Download mode. It hasn't been a week since I got this phone. I was so happy until today.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi how are you? Unfortunately I couldnt fix it. I sent it back to amazon and they refunded me the full cost of the device. I then bought another S8 and have been using it since then with no issues so far.
