So I decided to unroot it. I used unlockroot23 to unroot it. The unroot went successfully but it bricked my phone. My phone only loads up to the samsung dart logo and then stays there.

Getting stuck at the boot screen isn't a brick. It's a bootloop.
You can try going into recovery then doing a reset by using Vol up + power keys.

The volume up and power button combination doesn't seem to work anymore. The were working just fine before the unroot . How else can I get in recovery mode? Or any other ideas?
if you can use adb anyhow then type adb reboot recovery

it's not a brick but it is only bootlop bro .. can be overcome with a flash stock rom :laugh:
I have just purchased this Samsung GTi 9305 LTE from a mate. I found out then that it was rooted, but not correctly. I used Rootchecker to tell me. The Security manager kept telling me also that it was blocking Supersu.
Oops. Just done a factory reset on this S3 Gti9305 (LTE) and all I am getting now is the blue notification light on and the Samsung logo just going light and dark blue.
I tried to then do a recovery, with all the buttons held down, it starts with a green warning;
A custom OS can cause critical problems in phone and installed applications. ( Yeah, just found out)
If you want to download a custom OS, press vol up key, if not, vol down and restart. ( which it doesn't).
I remember disabling Supersu, and unticking the security manager warning box. I put in the correct sim card, factory reset, and since then it will not start.
Phone was on Uk EE, but was unlocked for previous owner. The replacement sim is GiffGaff- running on UK O2 lines.
When hooked up to pc and Kies 3, the phone was not recognized and I was notified that the usb device is not working. When usb lead is in phone, it shows that it is charging, so lead looks to be ok.
Is this what you call a brick? Or just in a bootloop mode ??
I rooted my S3 GTi9300 ok and put on Omnirom v5.
Any help would be appreciated, so I can throw the phone back at mate.
Thank you.

Hi,
You should use ODIN v3.09 and flash a i9305 official firmware (4.1.2, 4.3 or 4.4.4). You can search on samsung-updates.com or sammobile.com.
IMPORTANT : If you don't want KNOX BL because of warranty purpose, don't flash official 4.3 or 4.4.4 via ODIN.
Don't forget to install Samsung usb drivers on your computer.
For instance, you can follow that guide from MaHo_66 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/gala...sions-t2694249

If your phone stuck on boot after flash stock via odin, go to recovery and make a full vipe and factory reset. Some devices unable to boot first after reflash stock.
you can watch here how to install rom via odin.

I have been trying to fix the random reboots that came with the SpaceX kernal for Note 5 N920C and now I cannot boot my phone.
I have tried wiping all data and clearing cache. I cannot find a stock kernel.

Your phone should now tell you that you have no operating system. And that should be why you're stuck in a bootloop. In this case you will need to install the original firmware back on your phone and start the rooting process over again. The easiest way to reinstall the original operating system is to use Samsung Smart Switch on PC.

I'm not sure where my phone is from and I need to know that on Sammobile to get the right firmware. On my warranty card under Country it says Pays, [Some Arabic writing].

If you use Samsung Smart Switch, it will ask you for the model of your phone, and the Serial number. Then it will find the right firmware for you. The way you would get to that information on your phone is to boot in download mode.
"While the phone is off, press and hold the volume down button, power button, and home button at the same time. As soon as the phone starts to boot, let go of the power button while STILL holding the volume down, and home button."
Your phone should boot into a minty greenish screen. Press the volume down button again and it should give you the SN for the phone. That should help in locating the correct firmware for your phone.
Flash my SkyHigh kernel and should boot. Will auto root again.
Link ? Search. ..

If you mean the SM number, I have that along with an IMEI and other information that came with the phone. Right now my problems seem to be:
Cannot flash any custom ROMs because I get stuck on "NAND write start!!" on ODIN. I have tried multiple ROMs, multiple USB ports and multiple versions of ODIN.
My computer drivers for my phone seem to fail after about a minute of using my phone causing my phone to be seen as an unrecognized device. I have tried re-installing the drivers many times.
When I go into smart switch it never recognizes my phone. When I plug it in on the Download Screen it just says "Connecting..." and eventually says my device is unsupported.
Okay, here is an update.
I tried initializing my phone after smart switch failed to connect to my device and after putting in a serial and model name it says that the N920C does not support initializing.

hi,
As far as i know Smart Switch does not support./work on rooted devices..?
I might be wrong, but this is what i have read in other similar threads/post in past.
Plse check, this fact to be sure, otherwise you wasting time trying to get it to work.
Good luck
post note.
Stock kernel is included in stock Rom.
If you try to flash old stock Rom it apparently won't work(re bootloader updated etc) . It has to be the correct latest stock Rom for your particular device! not just any Rom..?
I also noted it has to be Odin v 3. 10.7 ? something /i believe.
plse note
i can't really say for sure as,
My Note5 is not rooted...... yet all my other devices ..... Note 2.. 3....4 is !
O, yes i also have N920 C device (not rooted) and Smart Switch works fine.

It kind of sounds like zit is a driver problem. You said you did a full wipe of data and operating system on phone. So I wonder if it could also be the type of firmware you are trying to install? I would try to install a fresh copy of the new stuff firmware from Sam mobile or smart switch in order to make sure all the drivers are pm running properly. @wilcor I agree with you 100%. I am a little confused as to why the phone would fail when installing roms or fresh firmware??
Ok, thanks everybody I eventually got this problem sorted. I called samsung and they told me what country my device was from and after that I made sure I used ODIN 3.10.7 and the ROM for AFGHANISTAN and it installed successfully. Thank you for all your help.
Hi Guys,
I have used my T-mobile Note 4 for years since it came out. I have replace the batteries once, but like a month ago when there was an update my phone keep restarting and turning off. I then had to get another phone because of that I still cant get it to restart even after I bought a new battery, updated the firmware. can some one guide me the right way to do this right. I think I am not doing the flashing the right way.. with oldin, and the correct firmware. after I do that I get this installing updates andriod show and it stops and reboots again. please help. thanks
- this phone was never locked before
- Replaced the battery once
- one day when there were a bunch of apps that needed update with probably 35% battery I let it update and after that it kept rebooting
- So installed the twrp recovery.tar.md5 from here that didnt help
- So then from sammobile I downloaded the latest firmware and installed it, that didnt help too
So the question is can I just wipe the whole phone and start fresh? -

Thank you for your response, unfortunately this didn't work for me I did install the latest firmware , but the phone doesn't go to the stock recovery mode for some reason and keeps rebooting. it does say Recovery booting... but it shuts off. so I have no way to do that even if I keep pressing the volume up, power and the home buttons pressed then release the home and power and keep pressing the volume button.

So I tried this yesterday evening,
- I did install the latest firmware which was suggest in by one of the comments above :
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24651442761499080
- then flashed it with philz recovery and did the factory reset and rebooted it but no luck.
- when restart the phone, its shows the Samsung note 4 logo then shuts off.
im afraid to say that your note 4 might bebroken now. If you go to the note 4 reddit, this has happened to many people and has something to do with the solder degrading after a few years iirc. Best thing you can do is buy a motherboard replacement for around 60 on eBay if nothing else works. I have replaced 3 note 4 motherboards for people i know that this has happened to.

- Ran into another issue where I am getting this 'Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.'
- For some reason the Oldin froze and I had no way to stop the download process.
- I tried using Kies to install the recovery but cannot, I did look for SM-N910T ...but nothing.

^^^This. I just had to replace our two Note 4 after years of service over the last two months. Same symptoms as yours. It is most assuredly hardware related.
Even "better", from the two replacements sent by TMo, one failed within the week. The replacement just abruptly shut off and doesn't turn back on unless the battery is removed for 20 min. or so.
However, once it turns on it freezes. Try to boot to recovery, it freezes before even loading it up. One time the screen display even corrupted on me.
So, tldr, it is time for a replacement MoBo. Good luck!

The new battery may initially help, but it sounds suspiciously like the mmc is beginning to fail. Wakelock app set to option 4. Only thing that worked for me.

Your emmc is gone bad , pull battery put it back in dont power it on put it in freezer for 45 min than try to turn it on if it does you still have chance of fixing it somewhat if not than sorry to say but u need either new phone or replace the emmc
Did the Odin update and I forgot to flash the BL (didn't really care because I have done this in the past without issues) but when it rebooted it was stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G screen without any signs of booting (20 mins).
Used vol dwn + power to turn it off. Then tried to use vol dwn + bixby + pwr to get back to download and to flash the BL this time, however, nothing happens. It will not power on nor boot to download..
This is the first time on any Galaxy device I have had this happen. I do not know if the kernel tried to patch the BL partition, or what. But, I have no life in the phone. It is currently at a repair shop but they aren't having issues either.
If I were to repair it myself, I would JTAG flash the BL partition to get be back to download mode then use Odin to flash the firmware again. However, the repair company does not have one. I may also try a jig that I have used before to see if that works (Concerned with using the wrong jig for the wrong phone if that is a thing.. i do not know). I also don't own a JTAG/Riff box.
I do not mind purchasing a JTAG/Riff box, but I need to have the proper files to flash with the JTAG/Riff box - does anyone know where to get these?
Or does anyone have this capability willing to do it for me for a reasonable price?
I have the same problem, a dead s10 5g
