S7 Edge crashed - has my phone bricked? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hello Community!
Hoping you'll be able to help me with this: recently my S7 Edge has been fairly unstable, crashing and restarting itself. Sometimes the reboot would fail, and it would loop restart until successfully launching. Today, however, it has seemingly crashed but the phone has done nothing since - it has not attempted to reboot, and power + vol down, and power + home + vol up aren't doing anything. The screen is black, and there are no LEDs showing. I tried plugging it into a charger, but that didn't give any LEDs either.
How can i get my phone on again? Thanks!

stock or custom? odin or just pc dont recognise it?

wifes phone just had same issue. stock updated to latest September update that rogers pushed down today it rebooted on its own a bunch of times and now wont turn on....like nothing.
i was getting the failed to find /misc a bunch then i tired clearing cache but still had issues
now i was going to try to do a factory reset but it wont boot.

[Q] Samsung Tab 4 7.0 SM-T230NU won't restart.

I am trying to fix my friends Tab 4 SMT230NU. It powers on just fine, but when I try to restart from the power button. It shuts down then never powers up again. I took the back case off, removed the battery for 10 minutes then plugged it back it and it powers on. As long as I don't choose the restart option it will power on and off just fine. I did a hard reset, clear cache, then reboot thinking that would fix it but being that a reboot is the same as restart I get the same result. It does the system restore. I tried OTA to the newest firmware which fails at the reboot. Tried Kies with the same result. Non-Rooted Tablet. I tried ODIN with the new firmware, which worked on another 230nu tablet, that was stuck in a boot loop, but no luck with the one Im working on for my friend. Screen is cracked could that be the problem? Is the motherboard just jacked? Loosing hair over what I think should be a simple fix.

D802 dead, data restore

Hey,
I have D802 16GB with pre-last CM version. Wanted to restart the phone (no mods nor installing apps before, just a normal restart) and the trouble started:
-it was stucking on LG logo and then screen turning off; sometimes it came to CM boot animation followed by turned off screen
-managed to boot the phone in safe mode in order to backup files from the phone, it freezed and turned off. Booted in safe mode few times again, the freeze was coming faster and faster
-once or twice phone booted up normally, freezed very soon
-booted to safe mode couple of more times. I noticed the phone was freezing shortly after releasing the volume buttons.
-booted up in normal mode, was holding the volume up button during the boot. The phone worked normally, after couple of mins released the volume button. Few mins after the phone freezed.
-LG logo was shown few more times out of dozens of attempts with different power button and volume buttons combinations
-LG logo showed for a short moment after pluging the charger
-now nothing happens at all, even when connected to charger or PC. The computer doesn't detect any device.
I really want to get the data that are in internal memory of the phone. What should I do? What happened with my phone?
Found this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/general/lg-g2-unbrickable-fix-real-hard-brick-t2904404
but will the internal memory data be affected? Moreover, there is written:
12 After attaching buttons plate,check your device going into download mode, and use flash tool to flash stock rom.

Click to collapse
On the phone is CM which is not stock ROM, can I proceed?
Each advice will be much appreciated

Repeat intermittent boot loop

hi all,
Just come back from holiday and SM-G928F edge plus (european model) battery was completely flat.
I charged the mobile and booted it up, loaded into Android then sounded like a lots of notification alerts then phone made a loud buzzing noise and crashed/auto-reloaded.
Since then it had gone into a boot loop. Tried holding power and vol down to reboot phone. Initially this function worked then no longer worked. Phone still stuck in boot loop...
Could not get into safe mode (hold power and vol down then release power)
Tried in recover mode (hold power, vol up and home), tried clearing cache took ages about 1 hour, also tried the format option, rebooted system and still boot loop..
Tried going into Odin mode (power, vol down and home) , used ODIN s/w and installed the latest XER version firmware, got success message but still boot loop...
Interestingly when I left it to constant boot loop, eventually it booted up Android now. However once I start using the mobile it intermittently reboots the mobile and then goes back into boot loop again...
When I did manage to get into Android I tried using an app to check the mobile health, strangely I notice it said I only had 1gb ram spare and the rest was used when mobile was factory reseted and I didnt expect so much RAM in use. During stress test mobile crashed and gone into boot loop again...
I am not sure this was affected by an auto update that may had gone wrong.
I don't root, just used stock firmware.
UPDATE:
Left mobile in boot loop until battery went flat, fully charged it and now can get back into Android. But it started to auto update some app and then auto rebooted/crashed and went into boot loop again.
Please help.
Thanks
Is there anyone who can help me please?

S7 Edge crashes and reboots at Samsung logo, hardware or not? [All Stock]

Im so lost with this, im all stock but one day my phone just freezes then bootloop, I would be able to get it work by just leaving it and let it drain itself since it will be boot looping and lock me out completely, like the power button + low volume button would not work even after 10 minutes of holding it, would not boot to download or recovery mode, just the soft touch keys light on and the blue LED.
I reflashed my ROM from sammobile yesterday but did it half-effort, just dirty flashed it but it seemed to reformatted my phone anyway, after reflashing it, everything seemed to work properly for 20 hours and then now im back to this piece of ********* boot looping...
S7 Edge
running the Australia unbranded XSA-G935FXXS1DQG4 from the branded G935FXXS1DQG5,
would flashing de-branded affect this? or this is hardware?, one thing I did that I think was a mistake is that I chose to restore from old device, can apps cause this?
the very first time this happened, I plugged it in to charge then crash and bootloop.
UPDATE:
Things I've tried,
-Booting with NO sim card and SD Card
-Wiping cache and partition then reflashing stock XSA and OPS firmwares
im convinced that this is a hardware issue and will go to Samsung.
mine does this too. crashes then gets into a bootloop at the Samsung logo. I usually try holding the lock and volume down button. I factory reset the phone once but it still keeps happening, this started happening around 4 weeks ago
Guys your Main/Mother-boards are broken.. u need to replace it, or send back to Samsung..
Damn! Crash reboot samsung logo
Damn you say broken mother board...
did this. Press vol down, power button and home key...hmmm... i think...pressed so many combos hard to tell themapart

S8 Bricked :(

Hey
I'm having this problem with my S8. I was scrolling through Instagram when my phone suddenly froze and shut off about 10 seconds after. Tried to restart and do a hard reset ( Vol Down and Power), nothing worked all day. No charging LED when plugged in, nothing.
However, I came home and plugged it into my PC and it started charging. Got to 25% before i turned it on. Worked fine. I attempted to do a factory reset just in case it was bad software. When i did the factory reset, it restarted and said installing new software and gave me the "No Command" error and now i have the same problem as before where it wont turn on.
I downloaded fresh software from Sammobile and have Odin installed and ready to go but i cant get the phone into DL mode. HELP!!!
