Hi,
Okay so I have a Galaxy Ace S5830. It was rooted etc with no problems. I was just running the stock ROM (Koodo) that it came with.
Earlier I took a backup with CWM, then I used ODIN to flash a different ROM that I got from a different thread. However this ROM was not working well for me, the network connection kept winking in and out, so I wanted to go back to my stock ROM.
I got the stock firmware from SamFirmware using my model + country. I then used ODIN to flash the stock ROM.
When I boot after doing this, I go into a bootloop between the Koodo splash screen and the glowing SAMSUNG logo.
To hopefully remedy this, I used CWM to restore the backup I had taken previously.
However, when I boot after doing this, there is no loop, the phone simply sits at a screen with a black background that says Samsung GALAXY Ace GT-S5830D in white lettering. I have left it for a substantial amount of time and nothing changes.
I have read some other threads and they all suggest re-flashing stock rom with ODIN which I have done to the same result. So at this point the firmware will not fully boot, whether or not I have restored the backup.
Any help in fixing this will be appreciated! I'm stuck and I don't know what to do at this point, other than try some other firmwares.
Thanks!
Update:
Thanks to ver3go I was able to get back to stock rom + factory settings. the bootloop issue has been resolved.
HOWEVER,
when I load from the backup I made with CWM, it freezes forever at the black + white samsung galaxy ace screen.
Any solutions would be great. Though it's not a huge issue, it would be nice to not have to re-install all my apps and reconfigure my phone

Before restoring your back up, do 3 the wipes and then restore your backup
Sorry if there is a thread about this already.
My girlfriends galaxy note started to do a software update and went to reboot and it gets stuck on the boot up screen. (With the writing)
The phone isn't rooted but is there anyway to get the phone working without doing a factory restore and wiping the data?
Thank you.
Hello! I am posting this because I have searched for hours on how to fix the phone with no luck, so this is a last resort. Im using a AT&T (sadly) galaxy s5. I was going to update to lollipop but couldn't since my device was rooted. I tried to unroot it by using supersu, but pulled the battery because it was taking forever (I know I know.) The phone at first booted to safestrap and I tried to factory reset to take off the root. Now, whenever I turn on my phone, it wold be at the samsung galaxy s5 screen with the little unlocked symbol. I tried to flash the stock firmware with odin. Didnt work. Now it boots (still says unlocked) and when the samsung animation finishes, it stays on a black screen. Any help at all? Thanks!
Try flashing the kernel from the root page

Power off. VolUp+Home+Power until you see the Android. Look for option to clear cache. If that fails, use same method and factory reset.

I'm hoping someone on here will be able to help me with my Tab S2. I bought it around 2 years ago and immediately flashed with a Cyanogen custom rom.. The tablet has always worked fine until yesterday, a notification appeared that the SuperSU needed and update so i pressed ok. The tablet restarted and is now either stuck on the Samsung logo screen or in Odin mode ready to download.
Other than now losing the tablet and claiming on my contents insurance, i'm really not sure what to do. I've been searching for answers but haven't gotten very far at all Please can anyone give me advice on how to get my tablet functioning again?
Can you get to download mode and stay there? if you can, you can try re-flashing a stock rom on to it, it might fix the messed up super su config.
I had the same problem too. If i can´t go into the recovery mode, or i get bootloops i flash the original samsung firmware. If my tablet starts normally, i start again. Sometimes the only way (for me)
